"The era of the primordial is over!!"
- Abaddon the Great Marauder
After more than 2,000 years of silence, the Black Legion of the former traitors, the Sons of Horus, and some of the renegade Space Marines, under the leadership of the Great Marauder Abaddon, has reappeared in front of the Empire in a flamboyant manner.
Different from the previous petty fights, take advantage of the embers of the beast war to plunder as much as possible and develop an army.
The Great Marauder Abaddon realized that now that the empire was in turmoil, the state religion was collapsing, and the legions were busy arresting the Holy Blood Angels, it was the best time for him to expand his army and occupy the territory.
As early as before the ascension of St. Giles, Abaddon, who had learned some kind of information in subspace, had prepared for this black expedition.
This army has been developing in subspace for thousands of years.
On the fourth day after the Ascension Day of St. Giles, while all the star fields were immersed in great shock and the hasty arrest of the Holy Blood Angels, the fleet of the war commander Abaddon slowly sailed out of a subspace rift in a hazy star field.
With lightning speed, Abaddon captured a series of star fields in the Hazy Star Field.
After identifying the sectors where he and his legions needed to be stationed for a long time, Abaddon decisively carried out an almost inhumane raid on the remaining planets.
While the empire was still immersed in the sorrow and shock of the fall of St. Giles, the Black Legion ignited the flames of war and quickly spread towards the Taiping Star Domain.
Although the original body is now dead, the huge army and logistics support system left by the original body cannot be shaken overnight, so Abaddon deliberately chose the Hazy Star Field and the Taiping Star Field, which were less involved in the power of the empire after the Great Rebellion.
Due to the chaos of the Holy Blood Angels on the Imperial side and the preparation of the Black Legion, Abaddon's attack plan was very smooth.
This further nourished Abaddon's ambitions, and on the Black Legion's map, the Great Marauders carved a path to Terra with the blood of loyal Space Marines.

Loyalty is hard to tell: The Black Legion that invaded the Taiping Star Domain encountered resistance from the Anglican Army led by Gog Van Dier.
During this period, except for the army led by Van Dier, which still retained the belief in the state religion that erased St. Giles, in the rest of the empire, the belief in the state religion basically collapsed.
After simply censoring the Bible and adding his own content as pope, Van Dill remained firmly committed to leading his ranks with the Anglican faith organization.
And after receiving the notice of the Black Legion's invasion of the Taiping Star Domain, Van Dier knew that his opportunity had come.
Unlike the difficult and silent death guards, the mutinous army in front of him has extremely high political value in Van Dier's eyes.
Now, the main force of the Black Legion is still in the Hazy Star Domain, and on the other side, in the Taiping Star Domain, the salamanders who have urgently cleared the Holy Blood Angel are on their way to the battlefield.
Without hesitation, Van Dill immediately used his faith to incite his subordinates, and the countless civilians who had fled and gathered, voluntarily joined the Holy War Army and launched an attack on the Black Army.
After careful calculations himself, he chose to stand on the battlefield facing the Black Army.
Just a week after Van Dier's suicide attack continued, the salamanders arrived on the battlefield.
But on the front line of the battle, Van Dier, who continued to attack, did not choose to retreat, on the contrary, after repeatedly confirming the situation, Van Dier resolutely went deep into the war zone occupied by the Black Army alone.
On the wreckage of a religious planet, Van Dill found a group of female guerrillas fighting against the Black Legion squads, who were lightly armed, with prayers written on their arms and a faint golden glow.
Van Dier knew he was the chosen one.
Waiting for the women to be cornered by the Black Legion, Van Dill dispatched his army, no longer a promiscuous number of civilians, but an Assassin from the Court of Assassins assigned to him by the High Lords before he set out.
These Assassins were Van Dier's greatest reliance to ensure his life.
After a one-time performance, Van Dier managed to gain the trust of the female guerrillas, who called themselves "the emperor's daughters" and studied military affairs under the command of a local church.
Van Dill renamed the nuns the "Emperor's Brides" and gave them the best equipment and put them in charge of their own safety.

Dezhi: On a hub planet that is about to be conquered by the Black Army, Sigismund and his party rescue Van Dill who is trapped on the planet.
Through the evaluation of others, Sigismund had a great affection for this young pastor who still adhered to the faith of the state religion and was willing to fight the traitors as a mortal.
But Sigismund knew that the greatest use of this religious army was not to die in battle with traitors—that the army that still maintained its faith had other uses.
Sigismund, who had just met with Imperial Regent Robert Killiman, sent Van Dill and his army back to Terra, telling Van Dill that he wanted Van Dill to rebuild the Anglican faith.
This was Robert Gilliman's last request to Sigismund - the state religion had to be established, but for some reason, Killiman told Sigismund that the new state religion could not be the way it was.
It is best to refer to the religion of the Storm Field.
In fact, before being expelled by St. Giles, Motarian had not had time to explain his two brothers in detail.
After giving a hasty account of Van Dier's affairs, Sigismund immediately threw himself into the war with the Black Army.
33-
In power: Since Robert Killeman has bloodied most of Terra's top brassips, Terra is now governed entirely by mid-level management and Ultramarines stationed on Terra.
It should be noted that in this bloodbath, the few departments that survived were - the Imperial Navy, the Star Whisperer, the Star Torch Temple, the Navigator, and the Astral Army.
And the state religion has long since collapsed from the inside because of the ascension of St. Giles.
Previously sent to the Stormstorm Star Domain, the current Bishop Van Dier, with the blessing of military exploits against traitors, is almost invincible in the current rout of Terra.
After a brief investigation of Van Dier, the original body died, and the Ultramarine, who was also extremely disgusted with Terra, gave the power of the mortals and left Terra hastily.
Uniting the forces of the Starwhisperers and Navigators, Van Dill quickly expanded his power on Terra.
At the same time, in order to expand his power as much as possible, and at the same time boast of his exploits to the extraneous warriors who are fighting outside, Van Dill signed a series of treaties with Mars, who had just lost the casting general.
It should be noted that the impeachment of Robert Killiman is not entirely groundless, in fact, the Regent of the Empire, together with the fallen St. Giles, did make a series of moves to limit the development of Mars.
And under the operation of the Martian Casting General, who has been decapitated, the people of Mars have long been dissatisfied with the excessive restrictions of Terra.
Van Dill realized that he could not restrain the Cult of the Machine, and at the same time, he was also keenly aware of the dispensable political status of the Cult of the Mechanicus in the minds of most Space Marines, so Van Dil decisively lifted the restrictions that Killiman had set for the Cult of Mars.
33——33
Van Dill himself had great ambition and a desire for power, and in the face of the chaos of the front-line campaign, Van Dill expanded rapidly, wrote a new Bible, and established himself as the Pope.
Soon, Van Dier's power in the Sun Star Domain reached its peak.
And in the face of his move to re-stabilize the Sun Star Domain and establish the state religion, he also won the trust of the Space Marines.
At the same time, in a personal duel with Abaddon, Sigismund was rumored to have died in battle.
Sigismund, who had given him power, died.
For a moment, Van Dier almost thought that he had reached the top, and he immediately sent the warbands he could not win over to the front line to completely untie himself.
But in fact, in the heart of this young and ambitious pope, there is a gloom that has not disappeared.
Van Dill still remembers the Death Guards of the Storm Field.
He deliberately ignored the part of Sigismund's words about Stormstorm in his words...... This haze floated over Van Dier's heart, and he didn't want to think about it.
The shadow of the Death Guard hung over Van Dier's head like a scythe hanging high.
It's just because Van Dier knows that those silent madmen will attack regardless of any political situation, regardless of any overall situation, just to complete what they call death.
And what have the Death Guards been doing all these years?
33——33-
Clearance: The Death Guard has been the main force in the arrest of the Blood Angels, and at the same time, in the name of arresting the Blood Angels, the Death Guards have stepped out of the Storm Star Domain on a large scale for the first time and began to spread the Immortal Doctrine to other Star Fields.
And pacify those planets that have declared independence.
Due to the Death Guard Legion's Stygian Auxiliaries and the Mechanical Sages, other human planets, or forge worlds, are slightly less averse to the Death Guard than other legions.
At the same time, the Death Guard is generously sending supplies and weapons to the blood-washed planet.
The Death Guard's relatively rudimentary belief framework also allowed their minds to quickly take root.
33——0.33-
Alien Mortals: Due to the fact that the number of legions in the Stormwind Domain was temporarily reduced due to the battle in other star fields, a fleet of countless Comorian conspiracy groups launched a surprise attack on the religious planet of the Storm Domain.
The Dark Eldar's goal is clear, and while Motarian is seriously injured and can no longer respond to his heirs, the Dark Eldars plunder as much as possible of the mortals and the Bishops of Hades, including the Blackstone Creations.
The rest, mortals who were not followers of Hades, were brutally murdered by the dark spirits.
Together with the spirit clan who had converted to the Hades Cult, the remaining defenders of the Storm Star Domain immediately began to counterattack.
It should be noted that in the past two thousand years, the Pale Lord Motarian himself has communicated with the foreign race many times, and a small number of spirit races have chosen to join the Pale Lord for some reason.
The Storm Domain was attacked, and the armies in the other Storm Fields immediately returned to the Storm Storm Domain to fight against the Dark Spirits.
During this time, after witnessing the atrocities of the Dark Elves on the planet they had built, the Death Guards, led by the undead Kalas Typhon, made a poisonous vow to slaughter the Dark Elves.
On the other side, the team led by Vaux the Two-Faced sailed to the Misty Star Field, fighting with the other legions.
Due to the internal strife of the Mechanics, the Imperial Legion in the Hazy Star Domain has once again been caught in a bitter battle with Abaddon due to logistical breakdowns.
At the same time, the two Chaos legions led by Alpha and Omega also joined the carnival of the war commander Abaddon and began to promote the Chaos Doctrine.
Magnus was also seen by the Legion.
In fact, after Van Dill signed many treaties with the Martian Mechanical, the Martian Cult immediately took advantage of the chaos of the empire and launched an academic war against countless casting worlds.
They need to get from other worlds, and this millennium, limited by the Empire, has resulted in a lack of resources.
At the same time, due to the exemplary role of the Martian Mechanic Sect, the casting worlds in other star fields also began to crusade against each other when the empire was in chaos.
Nominally, the Mecha and the Empire are each one end of the double-headed eagle, so the Mechanic Army's and Space Marines will not interfere in the internal war of the Mecha unless there are heretics or traitors involved.
And because of the terms hastily signed by Van Dier, the Mechonia Civil War led to the defeat of the Frontline Empire's war, and it was even impossible to hold the Mechonia accountable.
Van Dill himself, on the other hand, shirked his responsibility and deliberately exacerbated the conflict between the Space Marines and the Mechanics.
In the name of clearing out heretics, the Cult of the Mechanics of Mars united several large casting worlds and launched an expedition towards several casting worlds in the Storm Star Domain and the Extreme Star Field.
On the other side, led by the Gree Casting World, united with the Casting Worlds under the Doctrine of Hades, they began a counterattack towards Mars.
In the midst of this vast academic war, no one cares that a small casting world under the teachings of the Immortal Sect has killed everyone on the planet after a single battle - all of the combatants are dead, and all the basic buildings are destroyed.
During sporadic surveillance, it was discovered that the long-disappeared primordial Forma and Conrad had appeared on the planet.
But this matter was soon drowned and forgotten in the crusade between the large casting worlds.
In the academic war between Mars and Gree, Gree, who had previously delivered most of his resources to the Death Guard, gradually fell to the disadvantage.
Mars doesn't seem to be planning to let Gree go, and under Mars's approach, Death Guard Captain Kalas has privately approached Gree's Casting General and asked if he needs Deathguard's help.
As the first large-scale casting world to cooperate with the Death Guard, Gree's significance and strategic position are not trivial, and the Death Guard cannot afford to lose Gree.
Despite their religious origins, Gree's Casting General refused support from the Death Guard, who knew that the nature of the war would change completely once the Death Guard joined the Casting World Crusade.
After some discussion, Gree's Foundry General, with the help of Callas, came into contact with the Forge World of Faos within the Maelstrom.
Immediately, Faos sent their fleet, led by Kirkland the Chaotic.
Kirkland the Disruptor, a personality attachment extracted from the Nirvana system, is best at disguising the various technologies of Faos as legitimate and compliant.
To cover up some of the techniques, Faros sent Kirkland.
When Faos joined, the tide of battle was immediately reversed.
33——33-
Rampant: Due to the addition of other Chaos armies and the short-term fall of the Loyalist Primitives, the war between the Empire and Chaos cannot end anytime soon, and the Mechanic Cults that crusade against each other in various places have made the Empire even more chaotic.
In the midst of the turmoil, Van Dier, who sat firmly on the throne of Pope Terra, became more and more rampant, and he realized that the continuation of the war would be beneficial to his rule, so Van Dier began to mediate among various forces to take advantage of the opportunity to expand his power.
He propagated a religion centered on himself, claiming to be the spokesman of the Emperor, and the Sisters of War beside him seemed to confirm this claim.
Van Dill reorganized the Council of High Lords, keeping the Inquisition and Assassin Court firmly in his hands.
At the same time, under the pretext of clearing the heresy and rebuilding the state religion, Van Dill began to arrest and judge people throughout the empire, and even commanded some warbands to attack other Space Marine warbands on the grounds that the other side might fall.
Countless worlds that were not destroyed on the day of the Ascension of St. Giles were exterminated by Pope Van Dier's trial, and among them, there were many planets where death guarded the mission.
In this way, Van Dill is satisfying his own increasingly perverted lust for power and delaying the war as much as possible.
Under the concealment of Van Dier's information, the Space Marines, the Astral Army, the Imperial Navy and other forces in the war still know nothing about it.
However, as the war on the border gradually dies down, the end of Pope Van Dier is quietly approaching.

An excellent warrior from the Sons of Hades, Buz Bella, came into the spotlight during the Grey Knights' joint campaign against Magnus.
Due to his natural instinct, during a conversation with the Grey Knights, Buz Bella learned that the High Lord Van Dir had repeatedly prevented the Grey Knights from supporting the Hindrit.
However, upon hearing of Magnus' suspected presence on the battlefield, the Grey Knights immediately decided to go against the wishes of the Inquisition and fight on the battlefield.
After successfully banishing Magnus, the weary Grey Knight was merely confiding his worries to a reliable comrade, but for Buzz......
Thanks to the political sense bestowed by Hades, the father of his genes, Buz Bella's immediate realization is that an enemy of the Empire has arisen above the distant Terra.
He realizes that now that the hero Sigismund has fallen and there is an enemy within, the Space Marines need a new leader to correct their mistakes.
In the same way, this young man who belongs to the son of Hades also hopes to engrave his admiration for the father of genes on the empire.
He will be the next hero, correct his mistakes, and fulfill his selfish intentions.
And the first thing he did was to immediately cut himself off from the two-faced man Vaux, who was extremely bad for his extreme behavior.
"Hey! Lao Deng! Give me your prestige and connections, and stay away from me! ”
On the Fortitude, Buz Bella, who went to fight the autumn wind in the mother group, was ready to retreat, but he saw Vokes in front of him and looked at him in a daze.
After holding down Buzz, who saw that something was wrong and wanted to retreat directly, Vaux sat on Buzz, who collapsed on the ground and pretended to be dead, and without any hesitation, Vaux contacted Callas, who was in the Storm Star Domain.
During that communication, Buz heard only the almost simultaneous sighs of Vaux and Callas.
And sigh after sigh.
A week later, Buzbella had received so many supplies and ships that he was sweating profusely.
And the blessing of Tobuz, the brothers of the Sons of Hades warband, who are less than sixty people, can each sleep with seven beds side by side in their own personal lounge, and still have enough space.
The leader of the Son of Hades immediately appointed Buzz as the commander of the warband, and he happily jumped into the gang with his battle brothers.
Buzz stayed behind to count supplies.
In order to live up to the expectations of the commander and commander of the Death Guard, Buzz, who was already sweating, almost finished the battle against Chaos in the following battle.
Here are some of Bouz's achievements:
Unite with the Grey Knights and banish Magnus. (My evaluation is that the gray knight buddy is very good, five-star praise)
Participate in the Soul of Vengeance's gang fight, slay countless Chaos Warriors, and rescue a fearless and "Hermit" who is imprisoned on the Spirit of Vengeance. (As I said, he just cut it all the way.) )
Fight Abaddon. (Later, Volks' arrival was in time to rescue Buzz, who was about to die under the claws of Abaddon's power, and the two successfully retreated together, Booz thanked Vox for helping him brush up on his military exploits, and further announced that he was not familiar with Voz.) )
Successfully escaped in the battle against the Scarlet Alpha. (According to my account, he ran for his life after firing a shot and running for his life, so he survived.) )
United Sisters of Silence banishes Lucius. (I rated it as disgusting.) )
On a plague planet, rescue the Imperial Fist from a siege in the swamps. (I commented sharply, there is a warm feeling of returning to the Tenacity.) )
During the battle against the Rotten Omega, the Son of Hades and the Silent Monk, along with countless death guards, were banished back to the Rotten Omega at the cost of all but him. (I've calmed down a lot since then.) )
As Buzz trembled among the corpses of his comrades with his scythe in hand, the only surviving son of Hades looked up and realized that the long war had finally come to an end.
And he himself has already become a real hero of the empire in this battle.

With the confidence of backing the Death Guard, together with the Grier Casting World and the Faos Casting World, who won the academic war, Buz Bella led an army of Space Marines and returned to Terra.
As an aside, in the negotiations with the Foundry World, it was the creator of Buz Bella, Kim-306, who was responsible for most of the communication and negotiations.
-
Under absolute force suppression, the son of Hades came to the outside of Van Dier's bedchamber.
-
After convincing the Sisters of Silence to lay down their arms, the last of the sons of Hades, Buz Bella, beheaded Pope Gog Van Dier.
On the same day, Buz Bella, carrying the head of Gog Van Dier, walked out of the palace and announced to everyone on the rooftop that in the name of the Emperor and the King of Hades, he would establish an empire of the Emperor and the King of Hades.
On the same day, the sages from Greier and Phaos set foot on Mars and proclaimed Ohm the Messiah to be the King of Hades.
The era of apostasy finally came to an end after a hundred years of war.
The four primordials left, the Holy Blood Angel was removed, the Terra hierarchy was slaughtered, countless worlds were engulfed in war, people attacked each other, religions crusaded against each other, countless worlds returned to ignorance, countless planets were lost, countless technologies were lost, because of internal strife and external enemies, the army was suddenly reduced, heretics and aliens were eyeing each other, and the era of apostasy finally came to an end.
The era of the co-rule of the Hades and the God Emperor began.
Thanks to the second creation of [Tea Fish] friends!! Because of my arrangement here, I had to let him play a little early......_(:з"∠)_
