The Emperor’s Angel of Death

Although there are still various problems, it is certain that it is currently Xyphus who is suppressing the Void from its original bestiality, because only this son of the Emperor, the pinnacle of humanity with the same intelligence as the Emperor, has the ability to suppress this variant star god with terrifying devouring power.

But ten thousand years have passed, how long can Xyphus suppress it?

Moreover, Asuryan still has a divine nature as a safety net. Once Xyphus's intelligence is obliterated, it will be completely gone. Will the Emperor and Elda allow this to happen?

Definitely not.

Also, Macaroth and the others have been trying to use the Grey Pith. Do they hope to combine the Emperor's divinity with the Grey Pith? What will be born then?

No matter how he thinks about it, it seems that he himself is not facing good choices. If Xyphus disappears, then he doesn't think he is powerful enough to control this thing. If the Void escapes, then things will really be serious.

But in this intricate network, Saul Tarvitz always feels that something is wrong, but he can't sort it out and can't find it. This sense of strangeness is like an instinct, but now he doesn't even dare to believe his instinct, after all, who knows if this instinct comes from some trick of the Grey Pith.

But even if he puts aside this information, just learning so much about the Necrons' inside story is worthwhile. After all, this group of dead remnants is likely to be his main future enemy. Anyway, no matter what the Grey Pith plan will eventually lead to, he will not let this group of metal undead succeed.

So he decided to test Mardel.

"Mardel, it seems that the Silent King of the Necrons wants to use the power of the Spirit Pith to reverse biotransference. What do you think?"

Hearing Saul Tarvitz's words, Mardel's originally dull expression instantly became very interesting, then he slightly opened his mouth and took a deep breath.

"Actually, yes, yes, it is very possible—"

Mardel immediately stopped his words.

Saul Tarvitz stared at him and sneered.

"Mardel, you are actually Asuryan's hidden pawn, right?"

Mardel just narrowed his turbid eyes and stared at the other party.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I have already chosen the Eightfold Path. Everything in the past has been completely shattered in the power of destruction. I am a follower of the four gods, and I still am."

Saul Tarvitz pointed at the other party.

"Small tricks, Mardel, you have never been a pure warp entity. This is the most essential difference between you and all demons, whether it is a Daemon Prince, a Greater Daemon, or any other demon. They will always belong to the warp. This is their essence, but you are different. You are not a complete warp entity, so when the Necrons were conducting biotransference, even the star gods did not discover that you actually have a soul. Hellfire Stone, this was made for you by Asuryan, right? It gives you some ability similar to his, that is, the ability to shuttle freely between the warp and reality, or maybe it's not that powerful, but it creates a real anchor point for you. No matter what kind of power in the warp can interfere with this anchor point, that is your true essence."

Saul Tarvitz walked to the other party and shook his head.

"Let me guess, this power or treasure must be extremely difficult for Asuryan to obtain, but he gave it to you? Then obviously his attitude towards you is not so unbearable, or as you said before, he doesn't despise you so much. You lied, Mardel, you are his confidant or someone he is willing to trust at the last moment. I heard from Instructor Saul about what you did on Davin, a futile farce, defeated by Sanguinius, Guilliman, and Lion El'Jonson, but there were more than just three primarchs near Davin at that time. Talos said that Konrad Curze was also in that storm of destruction, although he was in a state of imprisonment, but with Curze's sensitivity to the warp? Presumably, it is still possible to pass on some words. What did you say to Curze?"

"I don't know what you are talking about. The failure of Davin is just a small boost to promoting Sanguinius's path to self-destruction. Saul Tarvitz, you are too arrogant, so arrogant that you think you can see through the supreme and uncertain tides of fate."

"Are you really sure you want to play these little tricks with me?"

"I don't know."

Mardel's attitude suddenly became very firm.

Saul Tarvitz looked at the other party's withered face, nodded after a moment.

"To be able to make a two-faced guy like you so devoted, willing to die to keep the secret, Asuryan, it seems that he didn't choose the wrong person. After all, even the four gods of destruction may not be able to guarantee the absolute loyalty of their Greater Daemons. Okay, I won't kill you. I know you will say it one day. You are still useful to me now. You must have heard that I probably already have some conflicts with the Necrons. You were once a member of them, and you can be used to fight against them in the future."

"You want me to be your subordinate? I am the Eightfold Path—"

Saul Tarvitz waved his hand.

"It's just the two of us, the gods of destruction can't see it, don't act. You must have been waiting for this day, otherwise why would you be so resistant to Macaroth and his gang, and you came to see me excitedly as soon as I got the power of the Grey Pith without even using it? What form do you plan to operate in?"

After a long silence, Mardel said in a low voice:

"Find me a wraithbone construct, I'm more used to that."

"Then let's do that for now. There's too much information, I have to digest it myself. How should I leave?"

"You can leave whenever you want."

Saul Tarvitz nodded, but before he had the idea of leaving, he said the last sentence to Mardel.

"It must be stated that I am Saul Tarvitz, and I will never be Asuryan."

After saying that, he opened his eyes and looked at the Hellfire Stone in his hand, which had become translucent. It now looks more like a huge diamond, but there is a mass of pitch-black material inside.

After that, Saul Tarvitz looked at Kayan, who was sitting opposite him.

"How long has it been?"

"Five minutes."

Kayan looked at the Hellfire Stone in Saul Tarvitz's hand.

"Then you should have talked."

Saying that, he stood up.

"I won't continue to bother you."

"Kayan, aren't you asking what I know?"

Kayan sighed softly.

"If you want to say it, you will naturally say it, but these things don't mean anything to me. They didn't expect you to say anything either, because everything is only known to you."

"Kayan, let's go to the Brakato system together this time."

Hearing this, Kayan looked at Saul Tarvitz in surprise, then immediately looked like he suddenly understood, and quickly turned into a more complicated expression, pursed his lips as if he wanted to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything, just nodded silently and turned to leave.

At this time, in a clean, bright, and simply furnished room in the west side tower of the chapter monastery fortress, Kezar, the former apothecary of the Third Legion, wearing a white robe, was consulting the data. Suddenly, he heard a knock on the door, so he put down the data slate in his hand and walked to the door.

The moment he opened the door, Kezar was stunned, and then softly uttered that name.

"Company Master Saul..."
