1.27 Beyond the battlefield
"Hurry up and !!"
Kirkland slapped his appendage on the command table, and the eerie white light sprinkled the sage's red robe from the observation window, coating the blood red with a layer of white frost.
"This is already the fastest!"
Angeltai shouted, clutching the scepter in his hand tightly - now the golden light was getting brighter and brighter, brighter and brighter!
Quick, fast!! It was like the last reading before the countdown, and for some reason, both of them seemed to know that time was running out.
Gathered a large number of troops in a short period of time, broke through the waves of subspace and went to Cadia, along the way, the two of them experienced countless doubts, provocations, and countless unexpected stories -
Whether it's the sudden shutdown of a ship's engine, a lack of manpower, or something on board that shouldn't exist in the physical world.
But with Angeltay's sanity and Kirkland's violence against the subspace creatures and the Whisperers, their ships continued to rush towards Cadia without stopping.
Now is the final stage of setting sail into Cadia, and at this moment, the nerves of both of them have collapsed to the fullest.
Whether it is Kirkland or Angeltay, they all have the belief that they must go to Cadia, and they all have the consciousness that even if they die, they will die in Cadia.
Blood oozed from Angeltay's clenched teeth, his heart was beating wildly, and he felt as if another voice was whispering in his ear.
Kirkland turned his head sharply, and the sage's cold, flickering red eyes stared at Angeltay,
"You've got dirt on you!"
The sage shouted, and raised the machine god axe in his hand to slash at Angeltai!
"Roll !!"
Angeltay was unequivocal, and went up to kick the great sage who suddenly went crazy, he knew that the sage was not normal, and Kirkland also knew that Angeltay had also become irritable.
After many days together, both of them had gained insight into each other's fighting patterns, and Angeltai managed to avoid the sage's appendage and slammed his foot heavily on the sage's solid skeleton.
Kirkland, on the other hand, pounced on it, sticking to Angeltay's upper body like a reptile, reaching out to grab the blackstone spear behind Angeltai.
"Kirkland!"
Angeltay cried out, his voice muffled from under Kirkland's body,
"I'll give it to you if you want it! Lunatic!! ”
"You've got something in you!!"
Kirkland shouted with hatred,
"I see you have something on you!"
Angeltay shouted, his ears buzzing, it was probably the sound of metal parts on Kirkland's body, and he angrily tugged at Kirkland, who had been wrapping around him and beating him—
"Praise be to Hades, !!"
The hazy darkness descended, and Angeltay's heart was shocked, the Luo Scepter he held in his hand could not be destroyed by Kirkland,
"Shut your mouth! Kirkland! ”
It's useless, the great sage shouted Hades' praise like crazy—
"Stop! Man!! I said stop!! ”
Struggled and squirming frantically, Angeltay and Kirkland stopped at the same time.
For it was not the voice of any of them.
That's like...... A voice gushed out of Angeltay's veins.
Angeltai opened his mouth slowly, and the voice continued to sound from within him,
"Hey, I'm just a subspace student—"
Ahh!!!hh
The Great Sage screamed, and he shouted directly at the Immortal, and at the same time, Angeltay's peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the glimmer of a time bomb under Kirkland's red robe,
?!
For a moment, Angeltay didn't know whether it would be better for Kirkland to blow up the subspace creature wrapped around him, or whether it would be better to subdue Kirkland first and go to Cadia.
In Kirkland's prayers, Angeltay could clearly feel his soul boiling, burning, what really existed in him, when was he possessed?!
Angeltay recalled in horror, and then he remembered that this subtle sensation had only gradually emerged since the prophetic illusion that had poured out of the Rojia Scepter.
Angeltay recalled the scene of that moment—
In the white mist, he found himself kneeling on the vast earth, and he looked at the other side in distraction, tears streaming down his face.
【Angelta,】
Luojia was half-kneeling in front of Angeltai, his face was also flowing with silver teardrops, there were only the two of them in heaven and earth, only Luojia and Angeltai.
Luojia's face was full of misery,
[Time is running out.] 】
Protozoa says,
[I can't escape this, help me, Angeltay. 】
Anglet's eyes were bleeding and tearful, and his voice was hoarse,
"I should... How can I help you, my father? ”
[Bring the scepter to me, there is the power of my previous faith, and it has escaped.] 】
Luojia said hoarsely, his eyes surging with a strange purple light, and he was struggling in pain.
[Not only the power of my faith, but also your ...... Angeltai, you have to arrive in Kadia as the first loyal bearer. 】
Luojia looked at him, there were too many words that could not be said,
[You can't get here alone...... Fortunately, you have the believers of Hades by your side. 】
But that's not enough.
The fog gathered, and Angeltai felt that he was being excluded from this battlefield, as if he was floating, he was getting farther and farther away, farther and farther away, and he could only watch the half-kneeling figure of the original body Luojia stay in the mist.
Luojia opened her mouth and said a few words.
[I found a friend for you. 】
Angeltay suddenly remembered,
"Stop !!"
Angeltay shouted, overlapping with the strange voice,
"Kirkland, give me a few minutes! It's here to help us! ”
"Don't read it! I'm a good devil!! ”
But if Kirkland listened, then he wouldn't be Kirkland.
The red light of the countdown under the Great Sage's robe flashed faster.
Angeltay felt his blood boiling, endless power rushing in, and he felt spikes grow on his hands—
Angeltay jerked the Kirkland away from him, and he threw the sage to the ground, where he saw his armor covered in red spikes.
Angeltay screamed,
"Don't scream!"
The voice inside him immediately said,
"I'm Ram, don't chant your spell, little robot."
Kirkland screamed, and the machine axe in his hand, the engine on it began to roar again,
"If you want to find your master, listen to me!"
Ram roared, and the demon's shrill sarcastic voice rang out,
"I'm here to help you,"
Ram gritted his teeth and said,
"Maniacs who discriminate against subspace."
Kirkland screamed again, and the sage pointed his finger at Angeltai, who was standing bewildered, and as he cried, he pulled out a black stone spike carved with the three-headed hounds of Hell from his red robe and aimed it at Angeltai.
Ram immediately cried out,
"Subspace isn't all a collection of negatives! I'll just say one last time, I'm here to help my brother Angeltay! Little robots! ”
Angeltay was taken aback, when did he get up with a demon,
As if perceiving Angeltay's thoughts, Ram said helplessly,
"You and I have the same fate, Angeltay, I was found by Luojia, and it was in that prophecy - oil guy, put away your gadgets! If you want your master to live! ”
Angeltay took a deep breath, he held out his hand and motioned for Kirkland to stop, and the Bearer spoke cautiously,
"Do you want to ...... How would you like to help us? Why are you helping us? ”
"Because I'm a good devil."
Ram's provocative voice sounded,
"Otherwise? Do all beings have to be those who are insane? You have also seen how miserable their followers have become. ”
Eribus ......
Angeltay thought,
"And now ......"
The demon said in a strange voice,
"I just hope that subspace still exists, and not be blown into a black hole by two madmen."
Kirkland shouted,
"What are you going to do to Immortal?!"
"I should say, what are you going to do with subspace?!"
"That guy,"
Ram gritted his teeth, a hint of fear in his voice,
"When he dies, a storm rivals the formation of the Eye of Fear, and it will continue to expand - and subspace obviously doesn't have the same helpful existence as the space necrons!"
The Eye of Fear was formed by the scream of Slaanesh's birth, and the birth of a god tore through the veil of the region's physical world and subspace.
And the aftermath of the explosion when the Lord of the Dead died...... Ram was sure that this would tear apart the Eye of Fear in the subspace, and even though Hades wasn't big enough to rival Slaanesh, he didn't need to become a god—
Instead, you just need to slash at the world before you die! to form a rift slow enough to bleed the dead subspace.
Originally, the Eye of Fear slowly spread across the physical universe, but the Space Necromancer, the overlord of the previous galaxy, discovered the Eye of Fear, so the Necrons built a large number of blackstone obelisks in the star field near the Eye of Fear to suppress the spread of the Eye of Fear.
And if an existence no less large than the Eye of Fear is formed in the subspace......
Ram was convinced that the power of the mind that symbolized chaos would never be as "good" as the space necrons, after all, a god would not end up alone, and the calculations of the same kind in the vicinity would be more deadly than the losses that could be caused in the future.
Therefore, it is impossible for the creatures of subspace to have the luxury of the overlord of subspace to build a wall.
Ram's voice still echoed in the command room, and the demon was satisfied to see the sage who had been trying to give him an axe fall silent.
There was a hissing sound, and Angeltay seemed to see the evaporating water vapor drifting out of Kirkland's head.
Kirkland shuddered and spoke,
"Wait...... But ......"
The sage paused for a moment,
"But...... I see that is not like that? ”
The death of the primordial, the arrow...... Kirkland felt like he was back on the battlefield.
The only thing that enveloped the area was the psionic energy that represented the next cruel millennium, and Kirkland could not feel a trace of the aura that represented the Immortal.
Ram's sarcastic voice rang out,
"Do you think they don't know about it? They knew this, in fact, if they hadn't been worried about the impact of the Hades before his death, they would have done it a long time ago, so why bother. ”
The sound of hissing danger filled the room,
"Poor little one, the Lord of Mankind loves you and your companions very much, and fate and prophecy favor you, you must have seen it...... The arrow...... Right? ”
Kirkland's form froze completely, but his hand still only held the handle of the axe, ready to fight.
"What is that?"
The Great Sage asked softly,
"A gift from the four gods, a curse from subspace."
Ram's voice crept up the hearts of Kirkland and Angeltay like a viper,
"At a heavy enough price, before there is time to redeem anything, they will kill the Immortal in a [harmless] way."
Kirkland was silent for a moment,
"Then why are you helping us?"
The sage said sharply, and he began to prepare to split Angeltai again,
"If you are a subspace creature, then you should not support my lord."
Ram spoke directly,
"Because the Whisperer Prototype has shown me another possibility, a more favored fate."
Outside the ship of the Law of Faith, the stars formed over thousands of years were silently watching them, staring at these two little people,
Ram paused, as if to announce a shocking secret.
"Luojia said, the Lord of the Underworld knows all this, so ......"
“…… Then, if there is no room for redemption in the face of the underworld, he will choose to cut himself before they do it. ”
Kirkland let out a high-pitched pop.
The small command room suddenly became chaotic again.
————————
What are you doing?
Luojia, what are you doing?
The walker asked himself, and he walked slowly on the wild land, the smoke and dust curling, and the corpses of those space marines had long since dried up, like relics of ancient times.
Here, time is as chaotic as space.
He walked slowly, a rustling sound behind him, and Perturabo's unconscious body rubbed against a deep furrow in the earth.
Sand, rustle.
Like tears on the earth.
The illusory figure shrieked beside him, the distorted illusion of the Great Demon being a broken projector, stabbing and chattering, it appeared in front of him, behind him, to the left, to the north.
He treats it as if it were nothing.
He was on pilgrimage, and Luojia thought of it slowly, the ashes of the wreckage of the City of Perfection curling over his helmet.
He lowered his eyes for a moment, did they want him to be angry about it? Reckless about this?
He didn't know.
He walked slowly, he remembered a lot, he forgot a lot, but no matter what he was doing, he knew he didn't belong here, he tried to run away, but the wound on his back pinned him to this plane.
The Eye of Fear was watching him instead of the sun.
From the light it shed, Luojia faintly saw many, many—
【Truth】
In the corner of his captivity, he saw the figure of the laboratory; See the last battle in Terra, with only the Forbidden and the Outcasts participating; Seeing the masks worn by the gods of the past, a glimpse behind the rift.
He saw the burning church, the city of perfection burning in the light of the fire, and he heard a whisper from the subspace, he was not a god, and the real god had already handed him a real olive branch at this moment.
Hold it and become a true believer.
The deceivers don't give him strength, they just use ridiculous tricks to fool him again and again, Luojia, why don't you let go?
As early as Colchis, Luojia established a religion, believing that the true gods would give them power, give bread to the people, light the way ahead, and arrange a true path for the sheep.
This is wrong.
The gods laughed.
All the truths they have revealed to him have confirmed this, and it is false, and He will leave, without hesitation, to become the Lord of Darkness, and then abandon the exploited humanity in the cold universe.
Luojia trembled, and he continued to walk forward, and Perturabo behind him let out a groan of pain, etc...... Wait......
The altar was not on this side, and on the other side, the devotees of the gods were stalling for him.
So he would abandon him, Luojia thought, using the gods of the believers to abandon the believers.
He subconsciously wanted to refute this, so he began to pray.
Like a pebble falling into a bottomless abyss, he lay on the edge of a cliff, expectantly waiting for an echo, but nothing.
A great sense of disappointment gripped him, and he felt hopeless.
Like a struggling fish, he tried a few more times.
Still no.
He was depressed, and the true gods were patiently watching him, waiting for him to repent.
He tried again, and he began to recite all the prayers he had memorized - there was no time, no space, he had everything anyway.
In the dense sentences, a subtle darkness surged up.
Luojia was startled, and the unconscious ocean responded to him, pushing the corpses towards the shore.
Luojia saw the pale and thin xenomorph corpses of Motarian, and the countless other alien corpses as far as the eye could see, as well as the corpses of humans, their weakened corpses lapping against the shoreline.
Among those corpses, Luojia saw two familiar figures.
An abrupt spear jutted out of the ocean, interspersed with the corpses of two Bearers.
Bell –
Tapping on the back of the armor, the sound of the broken sword rang out.
Luojia stopped, he gasped for breath, he felt the darkness in front of him, the last fragment of the night was in his place, in his faith.
The vast ocean churned, like grasping at the last straw, and Luojia called out to him.
In the darkness, he saw His story, and even though He could not leave His footprints in the vast ocean, the corpses lying at His feet had already marked His path.
He saw Motarian, he saw Angron, he saw Magnus...... See himself.
benevolent
Luojia thought.
He felt the last darkness, and even at the farthest reaches of the sea, He answered him, to everyone who would call on Him.
Benevolent.
The cold droplets dripped on his face, and Luojia looked up tremblingly, it was raining.
He thought, he walked forward, he saw the figure, he saw the arrow, he saw himself, he saw Him.
He's still fighting, even though it's pointless.
The outcome was decided from the beginning, he could not resist the power of the four false gods, this was the only time they cooperated, and it was the end of his doomed demise.
Luojia burst into tears.
No...... He should not die here, He is the only hope for mankind.
But the time left for Him is too short, time, the laws of the physical world alone...... No, it shouldn't be that way.
He needed to do something.
In the distance, he saw Angeltay's figure kneeling in the fog.
Luojia walked over, and he began to call out, responding to him with promises, with lies, with everything at his disposal, some demon that was intimately connected to the fate of the bearer.
At the same time, he stabbed his blade into Fenus's torso, and his dagger into Perturabo's flesh.
Fernus was gone, and Luojia trembled, he couldn't do much.
He threw Perturabo's unconscious body at the altar.
This is also their choice, and it is more suitable than Fenus, Peturabo.
…… But Luojia is also a possibility.
The spoilers of Dead End 2 sneaked out and shook my heart.
I also look at fragments, and welcome to use the original text to correct right and wrong.
St. Giles died too miserably...... There was not the slightest hint of glory, his face was torn off, his head was twisted three hundred and sixty degrees, and at the same time, Horus compared St. Giles, who was fighting him, to a dog several times.
Then Horus also visioned St. Giles curled up at his feet, eating from his hands and offering his loyalty.
(This is fucking written in the text, leaving St. Giles curled up at his feet eating something, isn't that right?) Isn't that right? )
There is also Horus who wants to send Dorne to the K throne, where the angel is N and the emperor is S.
Wait, why is the emperor S?!!! Horus, explain!
And in the new book, the emperor actually evolved into the Lord of Darkness because he played too many psionic gadgets, which is actually similar to Magnus.
But given that GW has already eaten Magnus Prospero's part, Dorne's part of death, this part could also be eaten by the book, saying that it was Horus's imagination or something.
But with all due respect, such a ...... appears in the official text Description and discourse of Horus...... It shook my heart...... I still don't know much.
