Chapter 3 Meetings and Preparations

The Emperor was overjoyed to see Horus in the throne room, just as a prisoner who had been imprisoned for 10,000 years suddenly saw a tool that could open the prison.

For the Emperor, if Robert Killiman, the original form of the Ultramarine, was a file, then Horus was a cutting airbrush that could easily open a cell.

Although it had been expected, the feeling still made Horus deeply sad and painful. The progenitor was only a useful tool for the Emperor, a tool for the revival of humanity.

After a moment's deliberation, Horus finally said "Father".

This father is not Horus's recognition of the emperor as his father, but only his respect for the emperor as his creator and sacrifice for thousands of years.

After 30 minutes of untold conversations, the talks finally came to an end

"Sixteenth, carry out the plan set, the Marshal of the Forbidden Army and the sages of the Mechanic Sect who are loyal to me will cooperate with you, don't let me down."

Horus then exited the throne room. Looking at the waiting Janissan Marshal, Horus said "I need equipment and troops, Forbidden Army".

Trajan nodded, "Of course, my lord, please follow me to the Lion's Gate Starport, where the Sage of Clecisis will prepare everything you need." ”

Boarding the shuttle, Horus and his party flew towards the Lion's Gate Starport. Looking at the busy starport, Horus was full of emotion.

The Lion's Gate spaceport is the largest spaceport on Terra, and its size is comparable to that of the Hive, allowing starships to transport cargo from their kilometer-long bodies directly into elevators and cars without having to be forced to transport cargo through smaller landing craft.

Countless Anglican believers from other star fields have also made pilgrimages to Terra through this spaceport, and Anglican priests have once again set up pulpits to preach their teachings.

10,000 years ago, Horus's rebel army first attacked Terra with the Lion's Gate as a base for attacking the palace.

Ten thousand years have passed, and now, the former head of the traitors has accepted the Emperor's mission in Terra, while the loyal Emperor's heirs have fallen silent.

Soon, the shuttle flew around a Goliath-class foundry. The Mechanical Sage has been waiting here for a long time.

As a forger mechanical sage from Yellow Springs Eight, Clecis, like his colleagues, is at odds with the Martian conservatives, and being so close to Mars like Terra makes him uneasy.

Stepping off the shuttle, Horus looked up and down as the Sage of Clecisis greeted him.

Like the rest of the Mechists, the Sage of Clecisis wears crimson robes, holding the Om Messiah's Axe, the symbol of the Mecha, in both hands, and two mechanical appendages with servo arms and an Annihilation Ray Gun.

The Sage of Cleixis looked at Horus with a fervent and loyal gaze that made Horus feel uncomfortable. As much as Horus likes to wield power, that doesn't mean he likes to be looked at like that.

Horus ignored this gaze for a moment and asked, "What do you have in store for me?" Mechanical Sage".

Only then did the Sage of Cleisis come to his senses and hurriedly led Horus into the armory of the foundry. The static force field in the armory houses a complete set of Seiko Terminator armor.

Horus recognized the Terminator armor at a glance. "The Serpent's Scales"

The Serpent's Scale was a gift from the Martian Mechonists during the Great Expedition and one of the earliest prototypes of the Terminator armor. He was supposed to be destroyed by the Emperor in the final battle of Vengeful Spirit, but now the "Serpent Scale" appeared in front of Horus.

Although Horus confirmed that the armor in front of him was the scale of a serpent, this suit was different from 10,000 years ago. The silver-gray background of the armor has golden-red lines, and the original Eye of Horus on the armor has been replaced by a sculpture of the Shadow Moon Blue Wolf, and the forehead of the wolf's head is inlaid with blood-red gems.

Horus took out his armor and stroked the cold shell of the breastplate, was silent for a moment, and asked

"How did you fix it?"

"The Serpent's Scales were 40.6% damaged in that battle, and after receiving orders from Om Messiah, we used the remains of the Regalia Resplendent to reforge them with the Serpent's Scales, and after the restoration was completed, they were stored in the Static Force Field until now when you take it out."

Horus trembled a little and picked up the helmet of his armor and said solemnly, "I will give it a new name, and I will call him the Guardian Angel."

With the help of Clecis, Horus donned the Guardian Angel, and the Seiko Terminator armor let out a slight chirp as the body moved, and gently buckled the helmet decorated with silver laurels. A majestic silver-armored demigod stood in front of everyone.

Horus walked up to the Sage of Clecis, picked up the Seiko Power Sword and Rasmus Storm Blaster presented by the Sage, and inserted the Power Sword into the scabbard of his waist armor.

"Now, take me to my warriors."

The Sage of Cleisis led Horus and Trajan into a secret chamber in the depths of the foundry, where 237 stasis fields were neatly placed.

The stands are arranged in categories, III, IV, XII, XIV, XV, XVI, and each of them is inscribed with different Roman numerals to distinguish different sources.

These were the rebel legion loyalists Astartes that Horus had ordered to remain behind before Daven was corrupted.

Looking at the position in front of him, Horus sighed for a while, if it wasn't for the arrogance at the beginning, then at least one gene prototype would be on the side of the loyalist, and those warriors who remained loyal to the empire would not be the only ones left.

That's right, the Emperor created Horus with a peculiar soul that provided Horus with a galactic future destiny and increased the soul's ability to resist corruption.

Unfortunately, when Horus was assassinated on Daven's planet, the dagger also poured the rotten poison of chaos directly into his soul when it pierced Horus's body. The corrupted toxin plunged Horus's soul into a deep sleep of wounds, and a demon entered the body of the commander. Thus, the Great Horus Rebellion broke out.

Out of confidence in his abilities, Horus didn't do much to make a comeback even though he knew about the Great Rebellion, and it wasn't until he was stabbed that he realized his mistake.
