Man in Warhammer, starting Primarch

Chapter 195 2. Return of Horus

Horus saw various unbelievable sights on the road he walked. He saw the proud Space Marines being manipulated to death by mortals using their power; he saw fanatical religious believers kneeling on their knees covered with blood. Whip yourself on the mud. The noble man dies from despicableness, the pious man dies from foolishness. It seems that no matter noble or low, everyone in the empire is sinking in the dark whirlpool.

If he hadn't seen the appearance of Dukel at the end of the illusion, he would have almost thought that the current empire was ruled by Luojia.

It was precisely because of the appearance of Dukur that Horus regarded all of this as a false illusion.

Because the former master of the Second Legion will never return again.

It was precisely because of the encounter between No. 2 and No. 11 that Horus realized in his sorrow that even though they, the Primarchs and Space Marines who fought for the Empire, were named heroes, they were still just weapons. A tool will be thrown away by the Emperor sooner or later.

Just like the Thunder Warriors of the past.

"Duker is a warrior that makes me jealous. His bravery is unparalleled." Horus's eyes were full of sadness, and he said to Luojia,

"The disappearance of No. 2 is the beginning. If even a warrior like him has to be wiped out, how can we survive? I don't know what these illusions mean, but I know very well that he will never come back. And I , and even our failure will destroy the empire in the hands of mortals."

Horus said with pain.

He once saw a glimpse of the future destiny. He saw that the Primarch and the Emperor had retired into seclusion, leaving only the Empire controlled by mortals, sinking in endless darkness, and no longer seeing any hope.

The erasure of Numbers 2 and 11 seemed to confirm this prophecy. Under various directions, the seeds of Horus's resistance took root and sprouted in his heart.

"Brother, I know you are still thinking about the past, but I regret to tell you that after ten thousand years of your absence, Dukel has now returned and is serving as the empire's war commander." Luo Jia on the side continued,

"And what you see is not an illusion, but something that really happened."

"Ten thousand years?" Horus looked shocked.

"Tell me what happened." He said, "If Duker had returned, how could he allow these darkness to happen!"

He couldn't accept the cruel truth Luo Jia said.

Ten thousand years have passed since his failure. What a long time it is.

"My language is always pale, you may not believe it." Luo Jia seemed to feel his heart, and sighed with a thousand sighs,

"If you want to understand the ten thousand years of darkness in the empire, you can walk here. In this place where time and space are just illusions, some history and the future will be presented before your eyes. You can understand all this, but it is left to you Time is running out. Once the sun's light rises, you will never have the chance to return to the real universe."

Horus watched everything silently, "I will find out the answer with my own eyes."

He took a deep breath and decided to muster up the courage to face the cruel truth.

Under the guidance of Luojia, Horus saw historical fragments one after another that made him extremely sad.

He saw the Emperor sitting on a huge golden throne, completely abandoning the human body, as high as a god, enjoying the worship of billions of believers.

When he saw such a picture, unexpectedly he was not too surprised. In his heart, he had long thought that he had seen through the emperor's intentions - in his opinion, the so-called revival of the empire was nothing more than It was a lie told by the Emperor in order to become a god.

He saw the departure of a Primarch, Guilliman wounded by Fulgrim, the Wolf charging into the Eye of Terror, the Lion seriously wounded by the traitor Seifer, and Dorne being ambushed with only one hand left.

Without the guidance of the demigods, the power was controlled by mortals. The result was just as he expected, everything fell into endless darkness.

Battles broke out one after another, civilization was on the verge of collapse, despicability and squalor were prevalent, and the people of the empire were trapped in war and ignorance, unable to be redeemed.

All the tragic events happened exactly as he expected.

The ideal they fought for during the Great Crusade was just a dream constructed of lies.

"All this is because of my failure." Horus muttered regretfully to himself. Everything he saw made him feel guilty and desperate.

“I missed so much and I could have corrected it all.”

His tone was full of exhaustion and sadness.

"Father, you have failed your sons."

Anger welled up in Horus's heart.

He had to use great perseverance to restrain this sudden burst of nameless fire and prevent himself from completely exploding.

What kind of dark and desperate era has mankind entered? Everything he once didn't want to see has now become a reality.

Hundreds of millions of young soldiers stepped onto the battlefield. They carried honors with them, but they only became consumables on the battlefield.

They fight for the gods they believe in, but little do they know that it is precisely because of the failure of gods and demigods that they were born in the Dark Age, and have seen only darkness throughout their lives.

"No need to be sad, as long as you return to the real universe, everything will be suspended."

Luojia said to Horus as if he was relieved.

Horus's emotions gradually calmed down, and then he spoke.

"Luojia, I never thought that you care about the empire so much." He said with a hint of sarcasm, "Tell me, what happened to Duker? How could he just sit back and watch everything happen?"

"I don't care how dark that rotten empire will go, Horus, but our ultimate goal is the same." Luojia looked directly into Horus's eyes and expressed his true thoughts.

"We must stop Dukel. He has gone completely crazy. His madness even makes those great beings feel uneasy."

"That's why I found you."

"No!" Horus couldn't believe it. He couldn't believe what Luojia said, even though his intuition told him that it was true.

"You come with me." Luojia took Horus to a place.

An extremely huge bloody factory appeared in front of the two original bodies. Countless creatures and demons were placed on the conveyor belt like goods of equal value.

Thick darkness dripped, and the horrific torture made them wail. They suffered soul and body torture and eventually collapsed.

Then the scene changed, and he saw Duker looking into the void, and then the entire universe shook. A huge black star whale swallowed the sea of ​​souls, and the immeasurable energy flowed to nowhere.

Just looking at these illusions, Horus felt a strong atmosphere of uneasiness.

——It was as if, from that moment on, the entire universe started counting down.

Luo Jia continued to speak,

"I don't know where Dukel got those forbidden technologies from in the past ten thousand years, but the first thing he did after waking up was to bring final destruction to this universe. If we don't take action, the future will be ruined. The destiny is only destruction, there will be no human empire, the subspace will also collapse, and everything will be reduced to final nothingness.”

"How can this be?"

The huge shock made Horus' mind go blank.

But the shock he received didn't stop there. Luo Jia continued to lead him forward, placing another picture in front of his eyes.

"In this field, we can see a fragmented future." Luo Jia pointed to the picture in front of him and continued,

"This is the future that Duker brings to this universe."

The vision that appeared this time was extremely silent.

The stars disappeared, and everything returned to deathly silence.

The entire universe is collapsing at an extremely fast speed, and the wreckage of the material realm and the spiritual world collide with each other, letting out the first and final cry.

Human beings are no longer found in the entire universe.

It was as if this empire that ruled the galaxy and billions of human beings had evaporated long before these disasters occurred.

Even though Luo Jia had known this scene for a long time, when he saw it again, fear inevitably showed in his eyes. He said with great sincerity,

"Horus, my brother, if you cannot stop him, everything you see now will come true."

He tilted his head and tried not to look at the scenes that frightened him. "Come with me now. I must bring you back to the real universe as soon as possible to prevent this terrible future from coming."

Horus was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

This news was difficult for the newly awakened Warmaster to digest.

Seeing this scene, Luo Jia forced him to continue on his way, this time his pace was even more rapid.

Until they saw a door made of crystal, rising from the boiling ocean of darkness.

Horus could hear the war cries and roars coming from the other side.

This chaotic sound filled his heart with uneasy thoughts.

At this moment, some figures burning with flames emerged from the black ocean.

They chanted the name of Horus and demanded that he return to them.

These little people burned by golden flames made Horus fall into a brief confusion.

Horus felt a strong sense of familiarity from those little people.

But he couldn't remember where this familiarity came from.

"Come with me, Horus, this universe needs the salvation of a great hero." Luojia begged from the side.

"As long as you take this step, the future will change because of you. You will return to the real universe again and complete your unfinished business."

"These are just ghosts in the underworld. In order to prevent you from breaking through the taboo of resurrection from the dead, they will use all means to stop you. They are deceiving you, my brother. You must return to the real universe, because only you can Prevent disaster from happening.”

Luo Jia's voice was extremely anxious.

"When the sun rises from this sea of ​​destruction, there will no longer be any power that can take you out of this realm. Horus, are you going to abandon your mission and let the universe enter the final nothingness? "

This sentence seemed to awaken Horus. He weighed it for a long time and looked back for the last time at the little figures burning with flames.

These little people struggled to get closer to him in the ocean, but they were very slow, as if there was power to stop them.

Then he turned around decisively and stepped into the crystal portal. He needed to complete the unfinished deeds by himself and prevent Dukel from bringing about the final destruction.

Duker has gone astray, and he must guide the other party back to the right path.

Prevent the universe from entering the void of destruction.

Watch Horus slowly step into the portal.

The little men let out cries of despair and pain.

They cried out, beseeching Horus to return to them.

But this time, Horus did not hesitate and stepped forward firmly until his figure disappeared through the crystal door.

When the two original bodies left.

Everything in this spiritual realm was shattered, and the violent subspace storm tore apart everything here in an instant.

The cold golden sun finally emerged from the water, but his arrival was too late.

Four terrifying dark shadows are entangled around the sun. They contain each other, although it is difficult for any of them to extend their will to the real universe.

But the light of the golden sun cannot be radiated either.

Horus awakened.

He woke up from the sealed jar of nutrient solution and saw the Word Bearers greeting him respectfully.

"Greetings to you, great Horus." The Word Bearers continued to say to him like devout believers,

“Please convey your will and we will turn all your ideas into reality.”

"No need." Horus responded coldly, "I am still loyal to the Empire and do not need your help."

He stood up from the nutrient solution, and the moment he took action, his movement stopped abruptly.

Horus lowered his head and looked at his body in surprise.

"This is not my body," he said. "What the hell is going on?"

"Sir, your body was destroyed by Abaddon, and you are now a clone. But fortunately, even the cloned body still does not affect the extension of your great power." The Word Bearer answered his doubts.

"Abaddon" Horus gritted his teeth and whispered the name before turning his attention to other information.

"Clone? Who can actually clone the original body?"

"Fabius Bile, my lord, was the son of the Emperor." The Word Bearer replied, "It was he who completed this great bioengineering technology. Not only did he successfully clone you, he also cloned your Other brothers."

Upon hearing the news, Horus's eyes suddenly lit up.

Horus was the first Primarch to be recovered by the Emperor, if not counting the Alphas, who had witnessed the return of his other brothers, while Dukur was the third to be recovered.

They had been together for a long time, and he knew very well that Duker was as brave as a god, and he also knew that the other party's war potential would never be inferior to his.

For this reason, in the early days of the Great Crusade, he did not have much objection to Dukel's decision to accept the important responsibility of Warmaster.

Even in equal situations, he has no confidence that he can defeat his opponent on the battlefield.

What's more, the other party is still in charge of the highest authority of the empire.

Although Horus returned to the real universe in order to stop Dukel's crazy behavior, to be honest, he felt powerless before that.

But the Word Bearers' words inspired him greatly.

A bold idea emerged in his mind.

Horus stood up and walked out of the laboratory.

"My lord, what are you going to do?" The Word Bearer stopped in front of him and asked.

"Get out of the way." Horus pushed him away easily. "I don't need your help. If you dare to block my way again, I will crush your body."

After giving the warning, he walked towards the door of the laboratory.

At this moment, the heavy metal door of the laboratory suddenly opened automatically.

A majestic figure stood on the other side of the metal gate. His body shape was similar to that of Horus. The golden-skinned creature wore a robe with burning spells painted on it, and the power of the runes surrounded him.

The giant stared at Horus with his unique blue eyes, as if he could see through his heart.

"Why resist our help, my brother, this time you and we are the saviors of the universe."

Horus did not speak, but walked straight past him. The moment the two demigods passed by, a whisper passed into Luojia's ears,

"I can still stop Dukel without the help of Chaos, as long as my brothers support me."

Horus' figure left without any pause.

The first thing he did after his resurrection was to find Fabius Bayer.
