Chapter 456 2.36 Broken Dreams

They were once brilliant.

But the beauty is gone.

It's already too late, isn't it?

——————————

The pitch-black darkness rustled around on this huge, complicated ship, watching people like rodents.

The Night Lord's ship was empty, like a hollow corpse left after death.

Ordinarily, Fulgrim would advise Curze to pay attention to the atmosphere on the Legion ships. As an army marching for the Empire, they need to maintain strict military discipline.

but now……

The Night Lord's ship, which exudes the smell of corpses, looks more like it was truly built for the current galaxy.

The galaxy is dead.

Now what they had was a body.

The star torch went out, and a crack split from the sky, staring at them, and from within, real evil emerged——

DEAMON

Demon... Demon... Fulgrim breathed steadily, that was a demon, no matter how they used "subspace creatures" to describe it or whitewash it, but that was a demon.

And the devil...lives in hell.

Right now, right now, this is hell.

Countless demons emerged from the swaying shadows, tearing apart their armies and whispering to the souls, endlessly and endlessly.

hopeless.

Fulgrim's original plan was to go to the Sixteenth Legion and ask Warmaster Horus what was going on now and what the Emperor's orders were.

But he could not find the Sixteenth Legion.

The Sons of Horus disappeared.

So Fulgrim immediately changed his goal. He hoped to go to Cygnus X-1, where his best friend, Faenus, last went.

But before he could move, the Sixth Demonic Tide dragged back the Emperor's Children. Along with the half-human, half-snake aliens, the Third Legion suffered heavy losses.

While fighting the demon, Fulgrim heard some... bad rumors.

He urgently needs to go to Cygnus X-1 to check the truth of the rumors, but at this moment, on the dark side of the empire, the psychic turbulence at Cygnus X-1 is already visible to the naked eye.

No matter where you stand, you can see that giant eye, without sadness or joy, staring at them in chaos and stupidity.

He needed allies, and the Emperor's Children could not go there alone.

The best partner was of course Horus, but the Sons of Horus disappeared.

Secondly, he thought that the former Koze might be able to do this, but after the Atonement Crusade, the Night Lord had already been seriously injured.

lion? He would not agree with Phoenix.

Angel? Fulgrim's soul was subconsciously touched. The archangel was perfect - he would not...he would not agree to such an aggressive plan.

Phoenix is ​​trapped.

He had no idea where he was going, he had no purpose, and every galaxy was sending distress signals to them - they tried to save two of them, but after that, Phoenix realized there was no end.

There are countless stars in this galaxy, and now every one of them is bleeding.

Pick up one, turn around and pick up another, and the previous one will sink into the river of blood again.

After weighing the situation, Fulgrim gave up the rescue of other galaxies.

Now, there are two paths before Phoenix.

...Find allies, and then go to Cygnus X-1, or find a star system, station it firmly, and make other plans.

But before that could happen, his fleet discovered the Night Lords.

Phoenix is ​​worried about Kurtz, and he also knows that Kurtz is capable of madness - Phoenix had a glimpse of Kurtz's madness during his previous relationship with Conrad.

He had thought they were just the words of a madman.

Until the madman's words began to overlap with the current crazy universe.

What Conrad Coates said is true.

Phoenix slid desperately, slowly, resolutely, into realization.

The reason why Konrad Coates is crazy is because he saw all this in advance.

If it were Fulgen, he didn't think he could remain rational.

And he once told Donne what Conrad said, and Donne reprimanded Conrad.

... Fulgrim took a deep breath, his long, silky silver hair dimmed in the darkness of the Night Lord.

He did it wrong.

It occurred to Fulgrim that Konrad was right, that he was.

In front of him, Sevatar stopped in front of a heavy door. The cunning Night Lord turned around and bared his fangs at Fulgrim - Fulgrim guessed he was trying to smile.

"One last reminder,"

Said Sevatal loudly,

"You should return to your fleet immediately and leave now - it's for your own good."

Fulgrim stared at Sevatar,

[I know, Conrad Coates is crazy,]

Phoenix said firmly,

[But he is still my brother, and I hope to meet him. 】

"I hear your wishes."

Savita bowed magnificently and exaggeratedly, and then he opened the door. A creaking sound sounded, and the strong smell of blood rushed straight into his nose.

At the same time, the scream of the Lord of Night sounded,

【I know what you are here for! ! ! Hahahahahahaha -His -Hahahahaha -]

【Fugen! Fulgrim of the Emperor's Children, I will tell you the answer now! 】

Fulgrim drew his sword sharply and retreated, but it was too late. His vision was pitch black, with only a hint of mad whiteness. The next moment, Fulgrim realized that those were Curze's eyes.

He heard Sevatar's shouting and the sound of hurried footsteps. The original body had broken through containment again! The roar of the Lord of Crows echoed through the corridor, receding into the distance.

Also going away was Savita. Seeing that something was wrong, Savita immediately ran away. Next, they could seal off this area and introduce poisonous gas.

Konrad Curze was there, hanging upside down from the door beam, with his tangled and greasy black hair hanging down. He stared at Fulgrim, madly, but at a certain moment it turned into sighing despair.

Curze's hand reached out and gently touched Fulgrim's face.

It was then that Fulgrim realized that he had underestimated the extent of the Night Lord's madness.

The torn galaxy drove this madman completely crazy.

He saw countless broken and bloody endings.

[...Poor ghost, poor ghost, let me tell you,]

Kurtz said softly, the stench from his mouth sprayed on Phoenix's face, he said,

[Faenus Manus is dead. 】

Phoenix stood there, looking like he didn't hear what Cozz said.

[Died in our father's plan, died without regrets, died vulnerable, he was betrayed, he was forgotten - only you remember him, poor Fainus. 】

Fulgrim felt his ears buzzing. He heard the pounding of his heart, the sound of wind, the sound of blood, the footsteps in the distance, the whisper of the devil, heard... heard...

[Faenus Manus is dead. 】

Curze said softly, caressing Fulgrim's face with his filthy hands, unbridled.

The sharp nails slowly stretched out.

Fulgrim... betrayal... corruption, Curze thought intermittently,

He stared at the beautiful phoenix in front of him - he was his mentor, what a wonderful relationship, he taught him how to bathe, change clothes, and the etiquette among nobles.

But in the end he abandoned them, and ran naked through this malicious wasteland.

Don't... Cozz thought, don't fall, Phoenix.

If he is destined to fall to death, then he should fall intact, with his wings intact.

Curze hoped to save the Phoenix, but he himself was broken and suffocated in a river of blood.

Only one being could save these, but it had chosen those it saved, and they were forgotten, abandoned, and thrown upon the corpses of the galaxy.

So... Cozz thought,

He felt the warp rift about to explode,

The curtain was very unstable now, this rift would have been further back, but someone sped him up... Curze didn't know who it was, a madman, a Chaos lackey, an ignorant human, but that didn't matter.

This rift was originally meant to take them away, but as long as they fight and die before that, when the rift opens, the truly chaotic spiritual energy will completely tear them apart and make them never exist again.

Koz breathed out hot and fishy breath. He looked at the frozen Phoenix, and his claws gradually moved downwards... It only takes one moment... The greatest assassin only needs one chance.

He was focused, he was about to kill a Primarch, he had to be dedicated enough.

Fulgrim stood still, immersed in great grief, his face was already covered with tears, and his eye makeup was washed away.

Curze hummed softly, as if to comfort Fulgrim, he was coming soon, and his claws——

boom! ! ! !

【Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! ! 】

The Lord of the Night let out a sharp scream, and he immediately disappeared into the darkness, whimpering and roaring angrily in the darkness.

Fulgrim trembled and turned his head suddenly. He saw the knight stepping out slowly in the darkness.

Leon Jonson put down his gun,

[I came just in time. 】

The monster in the dark screams,

【It's you! It was you who accelerated the warp tide! 】

The lion's face was expressionless. He glanced at the crying Phoenix with disdain, raised the lion sword in his hand,

[Otherwise I would see the body of a primarch, traitor? 】

Under the instruction of the Lion, the First Legion forcibly tore open the subspace and arrived at the location of the Night Lords ahead of schedule.

The Lion King was right, he arrived just in time.

Under the helmet with two wings, the lion glanced at the phoenix, and he frowned dissatisfied.

【cowardly. 】

The lion said coldly, and then he left the embarrassed Phoenix and resolutely stepped into the darkness to hunt the Lord of the Night.

No more, great!
