Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

After a while.

Shining with golden light, Sanguinius descended from the sky.

The demon world, which had been gradually normalized due to the suppression of the Black Stone, now looks a little more sacred due to the arrival of the Archangel.

The original body descended directly on the forward position, which was only about 500 kilometers away from the city-like fortress.

When the feet made of living metal slowly stepped on the ground, all the Astartes on the battlefield, the soldiers of the Blood Slave Mortal Auxiliary Army, and even the prisoners of war... everyone gathered towards the place where the original body descended, kneeling Kneel down and pay homage to the sacred Primarch.

"Sir!" A blood slave mortal auxiliary general who was overly excited to see Sanguinius asked loudly, "Now that you are here, is this war almost over?"

"It's not almost, but it will be over soon." Sanguinius did not reprimand the mortal for his rudeness, but responded in a very friendly manner.

The Primarch's words set off a flurry of discussion, surprising both Astartes and mortals alike.

What ended everyone's discussion and made everyone remain silent was a tornado of flames that suddenly fell from the sky.

It was the first time for everyone present to see such a strange and terrifying phenomenon.

A tornado of flames formed by flames extended directly from outside the orbit of the planet to the surface of the planet, which was to the side of the position where the original body was located.

When the tornado formed by the flames dissipated, a tall, human-like transcendent being appeared in the firelight.

Only those who were lucky enough to participate in the defense of Baal can recognize that this is the Burner who once assisted them in fighting the Tyranids on Baal.

"He's right."

The voice full of oppression and anger echoed directly in everyone's ears. Although the symbol of the Burner is flame, its voice is like roaring thunder because of its anger.

Among all the people present, even the Astartes inevitably lowered their heads to avoid looking directly at the Burner, while the mortals also lowered their heads and still maintained a kneeling posture.

The current Burner is more complete, more powerful, and more terrifying than the Burner on Baal back then. The people present can still hold on, just because they clearly know that this transcendent existence is their ally and not a strong enemy.

"The war will be over soon."

Another voice exploded in everyone's ears.

The Burning Man floating in mid-air looked at the fortress in the distance and gently raised his hand.

The material on the ground was extracted, transformed, shaped, and finally turned into a red spear located in front of the Burner's raised hand.

After a moment, the spear floated slowly.

Sanguinius watched the Burner's every move, it was wary of the Burner, and couldn't help but be curious about the Burner's next behavior.

The spear floated into the Burner's hand and was thrown.

The spear was not big, and it disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye, out of sight.

Everyone held their breath and concentrated.

Burner also slowly lowered his arms.

About two minutes later, it seemed that the spear flew into the fortress...

A bright flash of light appeared in the direction of the fortress.

There is no longer any fortress in sight, only a ball of light rising from the ground, occupying an entire continental plate on the planet's surface.

The first wave of shock that spread out permanently changed the nearby terrain, but this shock wave did not shatter the people present, it just passed through their bodies.

After the flash and impact, there was an explosion that could almost pierce human ears.

When everything calmed down, the fleet outside the orbit discovered that a huge hole appeared on the surface of this demon world. As for the city-like fortress... there was no such thing as a fortress.

"Shocking enough."

"For both the enemy and ourselves."

Dante hears the psychic words of the Gene Father.

Sanguinius knew very well that the reason the Burner was so powerful was that the Blackstone had almost filled the demonic world, even turning a blue planet originally full of feathers and eyes into a real reality. Universe planet.

Otherwise, not only would the Burners not be able to show such terrifying power, they would also refuse to come down and join the battle.

But in reality, such a powerful burst of power is terrifying enough, even for the original body.

"End." The Burner left two words and turned into a tornado of flames that went directly beyond the orbit of the planet and disappeared.

…

The angel fleet has conquered an entire star system and left behind black stone creations to make the star system a part of the real universe.

While all the armies were on board and the fleet was waiting to set sail, Sanguinius did not leave his living metal body, but locked himself in the room used for meditation by Mephiston, the director of the Blood Angels think tank.

The angel wanted to use his prophetic ability to bring some enlightenment to his descendants before sleeping again.

For example, is the Burner reliable?

From a macro perspective, it is undoubtedly reliable. After all, it is already fighting alongside the fleet.

But from a micro perspective, does this reliability come at a price?

What if one day the Burner gets tired of war and wants the Chapter to sacrifice the souls of mortals, or if it just kills for fun in battle?

With this question in mind, Sanguinius entered a meditative state and began to prophesy.

Scenes flashed by one after another.

The angle of view constantly changes from far to near.

Burners are killing.

Worlds are enveloped in its flames.

In a scene almost covered in fire, the Burner raises its hands to release flames, and the First Company of Blood Angels fires at the mortal worshipers around it.

As the prophecy progressed, Sanguinius could almost feel reassured, certain that the Burner would at least not kill one of his own, even if it was clearly a bloodthirsty and crazed arsonist.

Even his descendants are used to fighting side by side with the Burners.

Sanguinius was relieved.

But when he tried to terminate the prophecy, a picture of an icy sun appeared in front of him. The picture flashed by, followed by a burst of darkness.

"Father..."

Sanguinius realized that the Emperor had invaded his consciousness, which was usually a sign of wanting to tell him something and give him some revelation.

So the original body did not terminate the prophecy, gave up all resistance, and chose to bear everything.

Then new prophecies arose in Sanguinius' mind.

And because the psychic power of the person who made the prophecy is strong enough, this prophecy is no longer a series of discontinuous images or sounds, and the perspective is no longer like cameras floating everywhere.

Sanguinius directly came to the flagship of the Golden Expedition's main fleet from the perspective of a bystander.

"Father, what do you wish to reveal to me?" Sanguinius murmured.
