Chapter 500 4.18 Corax thinks this is not possible

Corax turned his head once.

His eyes flicked over the men, then quickly looked away.

The primarch's figure shook Corax and turned his head again.

The Eldar around him noticed something strange about the Primarch, and the alien looked to Corax, asking if he had any questions.

Corax's eyes were fixed on the nobles in rich clothes. People were bowing their heads in prayer, but at this time, the word "Pluto" in their mouths was replaced by "The Fool".

They prayed so faithfully, so intently - that they were able to completely ignore that there was a living Primarch standing before them.

These people were brought by the Eldar as bait to attract the attention of the Lord of the Silent Order.

Not only the nobles, but among those as well, the Primarch keenly saw the trappings of the psykers.

Corax's eyes paused.

[...Where did you find these people? 】

the primarch asked softly,

[I mean, how did you... let them establish their faith? 】

“very simple”

The Eldar said calmly, "[The Merciful One] is generous enough. We just selected these human nobles in advance and told them that there will be a catastrophe, and only [it] will be the antidote."

The eyes of the Spirit Race looked at those nobles,

"They are the last survivors of their planet, which has been swallowed up by the youngest women - and it is their faith that saves their lives."

It is not difficult to establish a small organization that is introduced by the powerful, and the Eldar do not need to bury enough faith in their hearts. They only need to know that there is a [Foolish One].

When the star torch went out and the real disaster struck, those who could survive naturally clung to the only path of faith.

Therefore, without much effort, the Eldar gained devout human believers in the "Foolish Ones", and their beliefs have been proven to attract the attention of the "Foolish Ones".

After listening to the Eldar's words, Corax, who had already understood this, spoke slowly,

[Summoning it over - do you need certain conditions? 】

The Eldar looked at the original body, his eyes flashing under the mask,

"up to now,"

The Eldar said, "If you want to call it to arrive, there are only two conditions. First, you must have a soul; second, you must call it by its name."

"The more powerful the soul, the easier it is to attract its attention, and the more devout believers are, the easier it is to receive its response."

Immediately afterwards, the Spirit Race let out a sneer,

"You don't have to worry at all... We are convinced that the soul of the Primarch has a strong attraction to it, you just need to pronounce the word-"

The hull jolted violently once, interrupting the Eldar's words. Corax heard the nobles behind him exclaim in surprise, and the Primarch silently lowered his hand to the power whip on his waist.

The raid has begun, and the actions of the Eldar are quite simple and crude. The raiding ships at the front will cut through the ships on the periphery of the Emperor's Children fleet like sharp daggers, and then send the "ammunition bays" in and into the Emperor's Palace. The proud heart part.

After successfully arriving on the Emperor's Pride, the Eldar will use short-distance teleportation to send part of the bait into the altar, while the other part will choose to infiltrate.

During this period, all the Eldar participating in the raid have the right to pray to [The Foolish One].

For the Eldar, the key to success or failure lies in summoning [The Fool] in time and attracting most of [The Fool]'s attention here.

Corax listened to the prayers of the nobles behind him.

Human bait... The Primarch thought, were these Eldar worried that they would not be able to attract the Lord of the Silent Order?

The Primarch suddenly felt ridiculous and ridiculous that gods existed, humans had their own gods, and aliens were trying to pray to human gods.

These three facts made Corax feel extremely helpless, as if he were in his wildest dreams.

But he needs to immediately accept the crazy reality and take action of his own.

The Primarch's keen hearing picked up the explosions outside the cabin. He heard the conversations among the Eldar. Corax counted silently in his mind. If the Eldar's actions went well, then they were almost there.

Corax silently took the word of summons to heart. The Primarch despised his own behavior, but if it could really save his life-and prevent him from becoming like that. appearance……

…There’s nothing wrong with that.

The cabin shook violently, and the lights above their heads flickered and went out. People screamed, but then the Eldar appeared from the darkness to comfort those who chose to die.

For those who choose to believe the Eldar's word, there is nothing to fear about being swallowed up by the god they worship in the act.

After all, they who had been on the fallen planet had already experienced real fear and chaos. Having lost their relatives, friends and family to Slaanesh, they were already ready to devote themselves to a greater existence.

The original body waited quietly. He had already made his plan to grab a ship and leave. This was not his battlefield.

If Fulgrim is truly irredeemable - then let him fall.

Corax could only hope that the Eldar's actions were truly successful and that his brother would be safe from true suffering.

...Corax was silent, but then, the original body thought of something. The uneasy feeling was like those omnipresent, vague darkness climbing up his soul, making him nauseous.

[...Your actions...have there been any successful examples before? 】

The original body whispered. The Eldar beside him was obviously preparing for the next battle. The Eldar glanced at the original body and said,

"We never do anything frivolous."

Eldar said, adjusting the power sword at his waist.

"We are not the first. Similar things have happened more than once in this galaxy. Big or small, similar dramas have already happened."

Corax knew what he realized,

【……】

The original body was silent for a long time, his completely black pupils staring at the Eldar in front of him. The Eldar seemed puzzled by the sudden silence of the original body. He raised his face with a funny mask and stared at the original body.

[Hypothesis,]

Corax's voice was always filled with sadness, and the primarch always seemed pessimistic.

[The "god" you are targeting knows your hatred for Him,]

The primarch paused and emphasized his tone.

[And this has happened many times - I don't know the exact number, but it has happened. 】

Corax saw sadly that the eyes of the Eldar opposite him flashed with panic for a moment, but the next moment, they had completely reached their destination. The fast-moving ship suddenly crashed into the Emperor's Pride, and the inertia swept all Everyone was thrown out.

This further strengthened Corax's heart to escape directly.

——————————

On the Pride of the Emperor, Fulgrim, who was lying lazily among the layers of silk and satin, lazily raised his eyes. The servants who were putting on makeup for him put down the cosmetics in their hands in panic.

[...enemy attack? 】

Fulgrim said slowly. Lucius in front of him was obviously a little anxious. The original man smiled gently, with a face like a goddess of beauty, signaling his heir to relax.

【no need to worry,】

Fulgrim said, [Let them come in, and at my coronation ceremony, I will personally water our glory with the blood of the invaders. 】

Lucius responded and immediately hurried out to set up. For some reason, he keenly saw some expectation in Fulgrim's expression.

Watching Lucius go away, Fulgrim lay on his side among the bed curtains. He happily took a look at himself with the gold-wired mirror. As if satisfied, he lowered the mirror and yawned.

【continue,】

The Primarch ordered the mortals to continue carving him, and an unstoppable smile appeared on his lips.

[The only time - this is the only time, I have to face all this with the best attitude. 】

His chest shook and the Primarch let out a sigh of contentment, as if excited for what was about to happen next.

No more, I still need to review today
