Warhammer: I don’t want to be a can of worms! ! !

Chapter 380 369. Conversation

Raging flames...

Dry gravel slapped the side of his face, and the towering red pyramid in the distance screamed and collapsed. He was about to move forward with his knife, but the winter wind suddenly grabbed his cloak, and the wolf's whine echoed lowly.

The Emperor opened his eyes and watched calmly as Malcador entered the room.

"My lord, we will be here soon, and the legions are ready."

The emperor lowered his eyes, golden flames burning,

"Tell Hades that if he can get the Red Sinner to deliver a speech commanding the surrender of the Thousand Sons, then the Empire will treat the remaining people on Prospero well."

Malcador looked at the Emperor quietly,

"My lord, what if Hades is not sure?"

"Then I will use my powers to forge Magnus' orders."

——————

[Only a fool would enter the battlefield for the satisfaction of defeating someone. 】

[War is never the purpose, the purpose of war is the people behind it, and the civilization and wisdom that people carry——]

"So this is the reason why you abandoned the Space Wolves on the battlefield and took the Thousand Sons alone to protect the alien library?"

Magnus made a loud sound of annoyance. The Red Sinner was sitting cross-legged. He slapped his knees angrily.

[Wolf King - Leman Russ is just a dog! He doesn't understand how valuable an intact library is, so he just leads his pups to bite it! 】

"But I heard that the Space Wolves suffered heavy losses due to the sudden retreat of the Thousand Sons in that cooperative operation?"

Magnus gritted his teeth and stopped talking. After a long time, he struggled and said that this was Russ's own tactical mistake.

“What about that collaboration with Conrad Coates?”

But the other side kept chasing after him.

Hades blinked and asked naturally,

"I heard that you and him almost got into a fight because Curze was determined to burn down a library and you were against it?"

[You would rather believe in a crazy person and a dog who believe in prophecies than in me? ! 】

Hades coughed, and then he watched Magnus immediately wilt.

"I didn't mention it first this time."

【……Yes Yes. 】

Magnus became distraught again, and the reality that he might suddenly be a prisoner made him sentimental.

But Magnus himself also knew what he had done. The Red Sinner also hoped to find a corner where he could escape the cruel reality, just like he did in the original work——

Knowing that he had blown up the webway, Magnus felt extremely guilty. He personally cut off contact with the Thousand Sons and locked himself in the library, leaving the Thousand Sons to face the judgment of the wolf alone.

Hades's evaluation was that the Emperor's bloodline was extremely powerful, and the deception of his sons was inherited from his ancestors.

Of course, so do cheaters.

[…Hades, will they use the Order of Extermination on Prospero? 】

Magnus suddenly asked,

Hades raised his eyebrows,

"And what do you want them to do with Prospero?"

He watched Magnus hesitate and hesitate for a long time, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

After all, Magnus himself knows the situation best on the Thousand Sons home planet.

In the restaurant, you can order food with psychic powers, free psychic medical treatment for all, and basically all employees are psychics. Spirit-summoning arrays are located in every corner that is convenient for summoning. In front of the pyramid of the Fire Phoenix School, there are placed items that can only be summoned through psychic powers Controlled war machine.

Everything looks great—as long as you ignore psionics.

Hades wondered what exactly the Emperor had shown Magnus.

Hades guessed that it might be Tzeentch or the truth about Chaos, otherwise Magnus would not be so lost. He fully realized that he was wrong, and even refuting would make Magnus feel ashamed.

"Think on the bright side,"

Hades said that he realized that Magnus was about to fall into a sea of ​​self-blame again. He was afraid that this guy would drown himself.

"At least some of your descendants will retain it. They will inherit the good part of your spirit and continue to contribute to the empire and humanity."

"And as long as you stay well and don't cause trouble, if one day the Empire really gets rid of the warp garbage, when the Emperor is free, I guess he can beat you up and release you instead of keeping you locked up."

Magnus seemed to think about what Hades said, then he turned pale and shook his head in fear,

[I would rather the emperor never think of me. 】

Magnus said dully,

[I don’t want to face him anymore. 】

"What did he do to you-"

Magnus shouted suddenly,

[No, don’t mention this! 】

"Okay, okay! Change it!"

Hades hurriedly interrupted Magnus's yelling,

"So what exactly do you know?"

Hades asked tentatively,

【I know everything. 】

Magnus buried his face in his hands. He couldn't see anything now. The broad palms rubbed his face roughly. Magnus said dullly,

[Everything - all the unacceptable realities, the absurd past, the distorted future, those blasphemous and evil things, no... no no...]

"And you got stuck with one of them."

【Don’t talk about it! 】

Magnus screamed again in terror,

[Language and thinking can be perceived in subspace! Just mention it and you'll be watched! 】

It's a pity that I didn't meet Magnus earlier and find out about this, otherwise Hades would not have given the entire Death Guard a big spoiler buff at that time, making Mortarion nervous every day now.

"But I am a soulless person."

Hades said calmly,

"Otherwise, guess why he asked me to come and watch you."

Magnus was stunned, and then he recalled the identity of Hades again. Unfortunately, every communication with Hades always made him forget the fact that this guy was a damn soulless person.

Magnus took a deep breath and said tiredly,

[Then will you always watch over me? If it were you... you could at least block the connection between Vast Ocean and me. 】

Magnus sighed. He was roughly stuffed with endless knowledge by the Emperor. He knew that it was not... that was not what he should touch. When he thought that his soul still had a mark imprinted on it, ——

Magnus shivered without a trace, and he suddenly felt that it was a good thing to be shielded by the soulless ones.

Hades briefly recalled Malcador's pua words to him,

"There is a high probability that I will watch over you for this journey, and then someone will change. I guess it's Macado."

Magnus wailed loudly. He didn't seem to like Malcador either. Hades said comfortingly,

"It's okay, I hate Macado too, I don't respect the old and the young at all——"

"Bang bang!"

The huge scepter bridge struck the ground, and Hades turned his head slowly,

"Hey, old horse, okay, okay."

Hades sneered, and Magnus swore that he had never seen someone change his face so quickly. Although he couldn't see it, the attitude in Hades' tone changed instantly.

Malcador stood there expressionless,

"Hello, Hades."

The old man gritted his teeth and said, the scepter in his hand trembled slightly,

"You should be glad you have a mission now."

"Ahaha, hahahaha, look, what a coincidence, isn't this——"

Magnus had never heard the gloomy Malcador speak like this, and no one had ever dared to speak to the Imperial Regent like this. Magnus once again marked in his heart that Hades was not an ordinary person.

After a few rubbing sounds, everything became quiet. Magnus remained calm and uneasy in the darkness, and the Red Sinner was also worried about why Malcador suddenly came over.

To punish him?

Magnus thought, but then he smiled bitterly inwardly, as if laughing at his own naivety.

On the other side, Malcador gestured twice with Hades in sign language, and then the old man coughed and left again.

Magnus naturally wouldn't see it, and Hades's expression became heavy.

Hades paused, his voice serious,

"Malcador has given me a mission, Magnus."

[Tell me, what else could it be? I can imagine all the torture. 】

Magnus said easily, but the tense tenseness of his muscles betrayed him,

Hades was silent for a while, and the absolute silence - the kind of silence that Magnus once yearned for was suppressed. Magnus suddenly felt a suffocating panic, and he was enveloped in the darkness of absolute silence.

He even wanted to shout to see if his watcher was still there.

"Let's not mention the matter that Macado entrusted to me,"

Hades said, holding his scythe in his hand, always on guard,

"I've actually been curious about one thing. Magnus, why...why did you give your other eye to the Emperor?"

Magnus shuddered.
