Man in Warhammer, starting Primarch

Horus saw his newly born brothers in the huge biological culture container. When he saw those clear eyes, he couldn't help but feel complicated. He had never thought that his demigod brothers would be so quiet and weak before - the pride and strength of the Primarch would make people subconsciously ignore this.

He stayed with his young brothers, but even though he was reluctant, he didn't stay there for too long.

- He needed to start the next step immediately. Duker could find them at any time, and Horus didn't have much time to spend with his brothers.

He walked out of the sterile laboratory where the young Primarchs were. According to the plan, he would open the door and obtain the wealth that would allow his brothers to truly become demigods.

According to legend, the Emperor of Mankind traded with the gods in that door, using the treasures of those who were about to become gods in exchange for the wealth of creating twenty Primarchs.

This sounds like a myth made up by the state religion.

But Horus knew that this was the truth of history - he knew that the existence of the portal was real, because he was the only one who had stepped into that door besides the Emperor.

The Gate of Morro, on the eve of the great rebellion ten thousand years ago, Horus knew that he could not fight against the Emperor, so he ventured into it, wanting to win the power to defeat the Emperor.

To outsiders, he only went in for a few hours, but only Horus himself knew how long it was.

Perturabo once used his body to resist the time weapon, and his life span of tens of thousands of years was wiped out in an instant, and only some white hair appeared.

And when Horus came out of the portal, even the Primarch with nearly infinite lifespan could not hide his old age.

Mortals who enter that portal are destined to pay a huge price.

But just like last time, he had a reason to enter.

For the beautiful vision in his heart and to change the fate of the universe being destroyed by Dukel. Horus recalled those clear eyes, and his steps forward became more determined.

On the other side, the Imperial Warmaster Dukel was preparing for a war of rebellion.

The Supreme King of the Darlock Knight World, Caligus, once again tore up the notice sent to him by the Empire.

He separated the world he controlled and attempted to split the sacred territory of the Empire.

Caligus proved his rebellion against the Empire with practical actions.

Even in the previous melee, he tried to go to the Vigilance Star to deter the Imperial Navy.

The Imperial Navy, with updated military equipment, naturally would not allow the traitors to do whatever they wanted, and gave them a head-on blow, so that the restless king honestly hid back in Darlock.

After the Supreme King tore up the Empire's notice again, he soon received Duker's ultimatum--

"In the history of the Empire, traitors are far more hateful than enemies. Your Excellency, if you make the wrong choice, whether you hide in the world or in hell, I will knock you down from the vast stars. I will kill all your relatives and friends; I will burn your city-state and scorch your land. I will become the embodiment of the word destruction in the universe, there is no doubt about this."

"If you and your family still want to live, please consider my advice carefully. Otherwise, in my flames, you will see with your own eyes what is the will of heaven."

The notice of the Empire's warmaster Duker was simple and clear, without any political twists and turns. Even a three-year-old child could clearly understand the meaning.

When the Supreme King read the last word silently in his heart, he was so angry that his hands could not stop shaking.

Such a straightforward threat, the Empire is going to treat them as aliens.

The Imperial Warmaster not only did not treat him as a human, but also did not treat him as a person.

"What do you mean!" The Supreme King roared angrily and threw the letter in his hand on the desk.

The Supreme King dared to swear to break away from the rule of the Empire at this time, not because of stupidity, but because he had enough confidence.

After the collapse of the Cadian Gate, the curse scar burst out from the Eye of Terror, almost cutting the entire galaxy in half.

The human empire encountered an unprecedented major disaster and was already unable to take care of itself. The destructive tide brought by the Great Rift swept across the entire galaxy.

The physical laws known to mankind gradually collapsed, and the barrier between reality and the sea of ​​souls became increasingly fragile.

Even the Astronomican, on which the empire depended for survival, was briefly extinguished for a period of time.

The Astronomican is the guiding light laid by the empire and the key to the human empire's ability to rule the galaxy.

At that time, Duker had not yet returned, and there was no way to talk about the Void Channel. Losing the guidance of the Astronomican in the subspace almost meant being sentenced to death.

Although the Astronomican was relit in the warp with the combined efforts of the Astronomican Court and the Mechanical Priest.

Many worlds that lost contact no longer recognized the Empire's rule over them, and Darlock's world was one of them.

The location of this world is unique.

When the Great Rift opened, the cursed scar literally divided the Empire into two, and the Kermond Corridor was the only passage connecting the Empire and the Dark Side.

Darlock's location is the throat of the Kermond Corridor.

Now Duker has taken back the Vigilance Star in the melee, and more than one-tenth of the legions have used the Vigilance Star as a springboard to shuttle between the Empire and the Dark Side to save those worlds that have been invaded by the warp.

The Military Affairs Department built space fortresses in the Alert Galaxy and the Red Earth Galaxy to ensure that the Kermond Corridor was firmly in the hands of the Empire.

However, the Darlock World, which was the throat of the Kermond Corridor, had a rebellious heart at this time.

They tried to use the advantage of their location to force the Empire to recognize their independence.

The Supreme King thought that the Empire would send envoys to negotiate with him.

But he never expected that the Imperial Warmaster would have such a tough attitude.

"Is he crazy? It's not good for everyone to fight to the death!" Thinking of the content of the letter, the Supreme King gritted his teeth.

The Darlock World is not loyal to the Empire. It is too far away from Terra and very close to Hell.

The terrifying warp like hell is affecting them all the time. Under the subtle erosion of the chaotic atmosphere, they are extreme and irritable, and the people often fall into a state of madness.

Many ships that suffered from the warp storm disaster and hoped to seek refuge or supplies in the Darlock World were ordered to be destroyed by the Supreme King.

In the outer orbit of this world, a large number of corpses and fleet wreckage are floating.

Even the liaison sent by the Imperial Military Affairs Department was killed by these crazy people.

But not all of them were like this. When the Vigilant Star was almost lost, these people chose to leave Darok and go to support the Imperial Navy.

The Empire accepted these loyal people.

But the destruction of the Darok world is a foregone conclusion.

The Empire cannot allow a family that attempts to split the territory to continue to rule this key place.

And the Imperial Warmaster Dukel is not a person who can bargain.

He would rather blow up the Darok system and let the Empire suffer certain losses, and he is willing not to accept the negotiation request of the Supreme King.

The Empire is ready for war.

In order to prevent the demon army from taking advantage of the situation.

The Military Affairs Department did not mobilize the defense forces of the two worlds of Vigilant Star and Red Earth Star.

Instead, some people were drawn from other places, and a reorganized army was formed to suppress the rebellion and go to recapture the Darok world.

In order not to affect too many civilians and let the radical scholars on Mars get first-hand research data.

The anti-rebellion fleet brought a large number of technological equipment that was still in the experimental stage to test whether it was suitable for actual combat.

But even with the army approaching, the Supreme King still had no intention of repenting.

He mobilized the fleet and prepared to have a space war with the Empire's navy.

But unexpectedly, the Imperial fleet stayed at the border of the Darlock system and only dropped a few tiny Mars.

These inconspicuous light spots in space like sparks were discovered by the Supreme King's fleet.

Looking at the artillery shells that were less than ten meters long.

The commander of the rebel fleet couldn't understand what the Imperial Navy was going to do.

He contacted the Supreme King Caligus and explained the situation on the battlefield.

"Is this a humiliation to us?"

The Supreme King saw these spark-like artillery shells through the holographic projection.

The Empire has never had such a tiny space weapon. Even the macro cannons on the flanks of the giant ships are calculated with a caliber of tens of meters.

Just as they were puzzled, the Saint of the Sisters of the Heart, Efilar, sent a communication to the Supreme King.

Efilar requested to have a final call with the Supreme King.

Her request was accepted.

Supreme King Caligus looked at his communication screen and saw a holy young woman.

He smiled disdainfully.

The Supreme King, who had been disconnected from the Empire for decades, was still unaware of the internal reforms of the Empire. In his opinion, the Empire was already extremely corrupt, and it actually allowed such a young woman to sit in a high position. There must be some hidden manipulation.

Fortunately, he was wise enough to leave there. He had long been fed up with the corrupt Supreme Council and those stupid officials.

"Your Excellency the Supreme King, this is your last chance."

Even when facing the enemy, Efilar was still humble and polite. She did not see the irritability and impulsiveness of the battle nuns, only restraint and holiness.

"No need for this opportunity, we have declared independence and will no longer obey any command from the Empire!"

Caligus was very determined.

The appearance of this Supreme King looked like he was in his prime. He was tall and strong.

But his face was extremely tired, and his eyes were obviously bulging. It was obvious that the long-term and huge mental pressure made his mental state not good.

In recent times, he dreamed of the scene of Dalok being destroyed every night, which was the most terrible hell for him.

"Don't let your people pay for your stupidity. The warmaster has conveyed his will. You don't realize what kind of existence you are fighting against. Now lay down your weapons and accept the trial. Everything can still be saved."

Efilar followed the process and made the final persuasion to the Supreme King.

"Give up your useless threats. Dalok will no longer submit to the rotten empire. My knights and soldiers are ready for battle. They will make you pay a heavy price and let you return to where you came from in disgrace."

Caligus sneered. He had made up his mind and disdained Efilar's persuasion.

"Sir Caligus, your choice concerns the lives of hundreds of millions of people, please make your decision carefully."

"Oh, stop being pretentious, Darok will not allow you to slaughter me, and my knights will also show their swords. If the empire wants to set foot on our land, it must first withstand our spears!"

"You have made up your mind. Destruction is imminent." Efilar closed the communication. The holy saint showed a little sadness in her eyes. She knew that the destruction of Darlock was irreversible.

Even if she couldn't bear to let Darlock become a test site for the new weapons of the Mechanicus, the Supreme King's willful behavior made everything inevitable.

"Activate all the sparks."

Efilar ordered.

As she spoke, dozens of operators wore sensing devices at the same time.

The sparks that had been floating quietly near the Darlock fleet suddenly expanded rapidly at this moment.

They began to move quickly, and the red light enveloped them, drawing red tracks in the universe.

The commander of the Darlock fleet felt something was wrong at the first time.

"Open fire, blow them up!"

No matter what it was, as long as they were all turned into garbage in the universe, this was the best choice.

The commander of the Darlock fleet made the most correct decision at the first time.

But his choice could not change anything. Under the absolute crushing of the new weapons of the Mechanicus, all their efforts seemed meaningless.

Dozens of sparks bloomed in the dark and deep space, and then they were like fire meteors, crossing a long distance in space at an incredible speed.

The speed was so fast that it was unbelievable. In just a few seconds, it penetrated the void shield of the Darlock ship, smashed the warship reactor, and blew the entire warship into pieces.

A powerful warship that the Supreme King had high hopes for exploded in the universe.

The commander of the Darlock fleet looked at this scene in horror.

"What's going on? Is there a false alarm in the reconnaissance system? Check quickly to see if there is a virus invading the fleet system."

At this moment, he would rather believe that his observation system was infected with a virus than believe that everything in front of him was real.

It was not a powerful light spear and macro cannon, but only a drone less than ten meters long and burning with flames, which instantly destroyed a giant ship several kilometers long.

No one would think that a small thing less than ten meters long could destroy a giant ship, or even an entire fleet.

This scene was beyond the commander's cognition.

He stared at the scene in the holographic projection in a daze. Could that spark of fire really be the hope of the human empire?

The commander of the Darlock fleet thought so in his heart.

At this moment, he regretted the wrong decision he made before.

The negotiations had broken down, and everything was irreversible.

The commander kept replaying the space video in the holographic projection. The flames of the giant ship's explosion reflected his side face red. In the replay of each scene, his eyes became more and more desperate.
