Chapter 53: Going to the Feast

The parlor was not as lavish as Prince Valerian had imagined the ship's appearance, but rather the dΓ©cor was very austere, like a larger dining room.

In the center of this "restaurant" is a round table with steaks, salmon, borscht and white wine, as if a real guest were being entertained.

As Valerian walked into the parlor, a robed giant stood up, "Ah, it must be Prince Valerian, come, please take a seat." ”

As he spoke, Horus stretched out his hand to shake Valenrian's hand, but the prince, who was only the height of a normal person, looked like a baby compared to Horus, who was nearly four meters tall.

Therefore, Horus leaned down to shake Valenrian's hand, but the prince could only hold Horus's two fingers when he stretched out his hand, and after barely completing the ceremony, Valerian accepted Horus's invitation to take a seat.

"I'm Horus Lupecar, leader of the Ashes Expeditionary Force and an ally of Jim Renaud, and I think you should be surprised by my arrival."

"Yes, very unexpectedly." As he said this, Valerian almost gritted his teeth and said this, "So, what is the purpose of you inviting me to the banquet?" ”

"I want you to succeed your father and become the new emperor of the Tyranid Empire." Horus said as he took a sip of white wine.

"Become an emperor?" Valerian was silent for a moment, then said, "My current prestige is not enough to sustain me in ruling the entire Tyranid Empire. ”

Valenrian's implication was very clear, he wanted more help, and second, Horus was very aware of this.

"Of course, Prince Valenrian, the expeditionary force will help you gain enough prestige, and the first step is to turn the Empress of Blades into a human, which is also the purpose of your hiring of Jim Reno, isn't it?"

Valerian nodded, "If I can erase the Blade Empress from the list of enemies, then I can challenge my father's position. ”

"The Expeditionary Force also wants to turn Sarah Kerrigan back into a human, our short-term goal, Prince Valenrian, and since you can work with your father's enemy Rangers, then I think we can be allies as well."

Valerian hesitated for a moment, then finally sighed, "I think so, we can work together for the time being. ”

"Of course, after all, we are all human." Horus raised a glass of wine and clinked glasses with Valerian, then drank it down.

Are all human? Valerian looked at Horus, who was taller than himself even when he sat down, and fell into deep thought.

"Come on, don't be stunned, Prince Valenrian, try this fresh Glocks steak."

After a few dozen minutes of dining, I, Prince Valenrian, was returned to the Busefalos intact, and from now on, Prince Valenrian's forces will become allies of the expeditionary force, of course, if you want the Tylen Empire to become an ally of the expeditionary force, you have to wait until he becomes emperor.

After meeting with Prince Valenlian, Herus boarded the Hyperion to meet Jim Reno, the Ranger leader, who could not believe that the owner of the Morbius Foundation was actually the son of Actulus.

"Can't you accept the son of Arcturus as your ally, brother Jimmy?" Horus patted Renault lightly on the shoulder.

"I can't trust Valenlian, his father's treachery will always affect him."

"We should always have some hope for people, and it seems to me that the little prince still has some sense of justice, even though he is also a statesman."

"It is better to expect politicians to have a sense of justice than to let Tadarin abstain from desazine." Renault said without thinking.

After a period of recuperation, the Expeditionary Force and the Rangers set out again on their journey, targeting a planet called Typhon and an abandoned Sarnagar ship in the Sigmar sector.

Horus planned to take charge of the fragment on Typhon for the Rangers who attacked Renault on both sides at the same time, while the expeditionary force went to clean up the abandoned ships of Sarnagar, so that the artifact fragments of Sarnagar would be complete.

However, on the way out, the expeditionary force encountered some mishaps, and the refugees they had rescued in Agril re-established a colony on Planet Haven, but the haunting swarm virus still haunted them.

The poor refugees had managed to establish a swarm of respite on Haven, and the virus made a comeback, spreading so fast that phages such units that only spawned in heavily infected areas appeared.

In desperation, Dr. Ariel once again asked for the help of the Rangers and the Expeditionary Force, and when the Expeditionary Force's warship and the Hyperion entered Haven's orbit, they ran into Duram's high-ranking executive, Serantis.

In order to suppress the spread of the swarm virus, high-ranking executive Cyrantis was tasked with destroying all infected planets, and Haven was no exception.

Out of respect for her former comrades, Serantis offered that Renault settle the colony on her own or destroy it entirely, while Dr. Ariel, who led the colony, implored Renault to free her people.

"The main weapon of the Star Spirit is being charged, I can't watch them kill my people, just give me a little more time, and I can cure the swarm virus." Dr. Ariel said anxiously.

"The only cure for an infection is the evolution of the flame, and you know that very well, James Reynolds." On the communication channel, Celantis ruthlessly pointed out the implementation.

Just as Renault was in a dilemma, Horus suddenly interjected, "Get out of here, Star Spirit, we'll take care of this matter ourselves." "Cruise is very tough, and the eight-kilometer-long battleship and the attached fleet in orbit are his toughness.

And this is also one of the few times Horus has a more polite conversation with aliens, after all, according to the tradition of the Human Empire, any alien collapses first and then asks.

This time it was Celantis who carried out the mission, and she only brought a small fleet to the incineration mission, and she was unable to compete with the fleet of the expeditionary force, so she had to abandon her operation.

"Hopefully you'll make the right choice, big human." After saying that, Celerantis left with her fleet, and the hard gap in strength made the arrogant high-ranking executive have to swallow this breath.

However, before Dr. Ariel could rejoice, he heard Horus say, "Let the flagship enter the orbit of the planet, the Space Marines prepare, we can only save the part that can be saved, and the rest will be purified." ”

Ariel's call for help came too late, and at least half of the entire Haven area was already infected, and at least seven or eight phages had dropped viruses on the planet, all of which had to be burned completely.

After Horus ordered the abandoned area to be infestation, Dr. Ariel locked himself in the lab completely, and something dangerous was happening.
