Chapter 699 147. Obtaining by chewing

【Glory of Macragge】

Robert Guilliman was sitting at his desk, rubbing his eyebrows.

Fine psychic fragments sprinkled on his armor and crown like starlight, and on his thin and calm face, and the fire of reason was quietly burning here.

Guilliman was thinking about something.

The Primarch obviously hesitated for a moment, and finally he chose to act. Guilliman stood up and walked to the Nirvana screen behind the study. On the Glory of Macragge, the Primarch specially installed the fulcrum hub of Nirvana.

Guilliman put his hand on the screen, took a deep breath, and the psychic energy passed through.

The screen suddenly burst into golden light. After a moment of surprise, Guilliman immediately retreated and stared at the phantom that walked out of the display screen.

Guilliman paused for a moment, then saluted.

【Good day, Lord of Mankind. 】

+Good day, my offspring, what's the matter? +

A voice came from a humanoid figure made of pure golden light. The Lord of Mankind is now on Terra, and the speed of information transmission in the physical world can never reach such a speed - but psychic energy can.

There are thirteen pathways in the Nirvana system that are built purely by the psychic energy of the Lord of Mankind, illuminating the empire with the light of the Star Torch.

Hades probably doesn't know about this yet.

[Excuse me, where is Leon Johnson? ]

Guilliman stood up and asked. In terms of momentum, he was no longer as submissive as before. In fact, as a monarch, Robert Guilliman might be more qualified.

Comoros is still collapsing. Guilliman originally thought that he could find a lion among these ruins, but the lion did not appear.

Up to now, the First Legion is still searching for Leon's traces in the Comoros webway. Guilliman met with Luther in his busy schedule. The old knight looked even older.

Luther asked the Primarchs to help him find the Lion, so Corax repeatedly haunted the ruins of Commorros. They should have gained something - but nothing.

He could not refuse the plea of an adoptive father and an old knight.

So in the ward of the Endurance, Guilliman asked Mortarion again. The answer of the God of Death was ambiguous, but he insisted that the Emperor was definitely related to this matter.

+ Does this have anything to do with your next plan, my son? +

The Lord of Mankind slowly threw the question to Guilliman and began to pace in Guilliman's study,

[I am just worried about my brother. ]

Guilliman felt his blood vessels begin to beat,

[I made a mistake here, and I don't want to see the tragedy happen again. If I can help the Lion, then I think I am willing to include the Lion's mission in my plan. ]

Perfect answer.

The Emperor stopped pacing,

+ Your current mission is to build the Empire, Guilliman. +

[My mission has always been to build the Empire. 】

Guilliman said calmly that he had thought so a thousand years ago, so he ignored his brother's state and witnessed the tragedy with his own eyes. The angels who were attacked by the backlash of psychic energy fell, and the brothers wielded swords again.

【But I need to confirm Leon's state now so that I can arrange the next plan, father. 】

Guilliman thought that Neos would continue to say insignificant words, so he took a step forward.

Guilliman would not have been so rebellious before, but ten thousand years of thinking and practice, as well as Mortarion's precedent, made Guilliman gradually realize.

The Lord of Mankind is far less perfect than they imagined.

【Thousands of years ago,】

Guilliman said calmly, feeling that he was tearing open his own wounds. Just now in the ward of the God of Death, he wanted to speak many times, but was interrupted carelessly by Mortarion again and again.

Mortarion didn't want to listen to his brother's nagging, and the Pale Lord suggested that Guilliman tell these to Hades-this way, at least the Hades could know what happened a thousand years ago.

[You didn't remind us either. ]

Guilliman watched the human figure in front of him freeze suddenly, and then the flames burned more fiercely, and the Lord of Mankind was staring at Guilliman.

Guilliman felt his breath stagnate.

+It's not just Sanguinius who was attacked by the psychic backlash. Do you understand, Robert Guilliman? +

Dense beads of sweat slid down his forehead. It's not just Sanguinius. Guilliman gritted his teeth and finally admitted it.

Sanguinius, Malcador, and the existence that diverted the Emperor's psychic energy all fell into madness.

That's why... Guilliman thought that Mortarion wanted to establish a new religion.

[I see, thank you for your answer, so what can I do for you, Lord of Mankind? ]

+Build an empire. +

[...]

Guilliman took a deep breath.

[Is the disappearance of Lion related to you? Is he in good condition now? ]

+Yes and no, good and bad. +

Nyos said casually, he realized why Guilliman asked so, the fall of Sanguinius a thousand years ago left the Primarch with a heartache, and now he was worried that history would repeat itself.

+The Lion will return to Caliban. +

The Lord of Mankind said, smiling complacently,

+Robert, where do you think the cycle of Slaanesh ends? +

[The fall of the Eldar Empire and the fall of Commorragh are the beginning and the end. 】

+Yes and no. +

Nyos said casually, Slaanesh is now trapped in the time between the beginning and the end, and He will never get news outside this period of time.

Now they have killed all the possibilities at the end, and there is only one ending, fall.

+The Lion went to participate in the God-killing, don't worry, Guilliman, we will see him after everything is over. +

+Is there anything else? Orr is calling me. +

The golden figure turned its head and seemed to be looking at someone who was not there.

[Father, do you have any suggestions for the next trip to Baal? 】

Guilliman has already sent a team to contact the World Eaters Legion, as well as the angel bloodline mixed in the World Eaters Legion under its jurisdiction. After the battlefield of Commorragh was cleaned up, they set sail immediately.

+ No suggestions. +

The Lord of Mankind waved his hand, and the light began to dim,

+Also, the position of Regent of the Empire has been reserved for you, or any other position, if you want, Guilliman - you can take it at any time. +

The light dissipated, and the study suddenly became much darker. Guilliman stood there, taking deep breaths again and again.

Regent?

No, no, no, no matter who comes, Guilliman will not do it anymore.

This is a painful and irreversible position.

He smiled bitterly. After ten thousand years, his father still didn't want to have a deep conversation with him? Or do you insist on placing him in such a position?

Guilliman felt a little sad, but he had no more thoughts. He had also smoothed the edges and there was no need to worry too much about certain things.

………………

【sin……】

Konrad Coze squatted on the side wall of the webway, staring into the distance with his dark and slightly pale eyes.

There, the city fell together with the sky and the earth.

Huge irregular blocks of light are suspended in it, slowly sucked into the subspace with the pressure in the gap between reality and subspace.

[The great city of sin, the dirty city of sin... The constant sun and the black star work together to wash away your guilt. Now you are broken, overturned on the edge of reality and dreams, under the corpse of the god... How wonderful. 】

Beside him, Guilliman glanced at Conrad with some embarrassment, and Mortarion, who was holding the scythe, sneered, with some bandages still on his body.

Curze continued humming, but no one paid any attention to him.

Two black shadows ran towards them from Comorone, one behind the other.

Corax came back first. The raven folded its wings and stood just beside Curze, staring at Luther standing behind Guilliman with all black eyes.

Corax shook his head.

【still none. 】

Guilliman heard Luther's deep breathing. Although Guilliman explained the Lord of Man's answer to Luther, looking at Luther's absent-minded expression, Corax still voluntarily searched again before the final destruction of Commorragh. One lap.

Still found nothing.

As Corax comforted Luther, another black shadow hit the ground heavily.

"alright."

Hades said that the river Styx disappeared at his feet,

"I checked around and found dominance and greed; gluttony, lust, laziness and vanity have all been shattered."

After the death of Slaanesh, the highly active psychic energy was directly captured by the original body, or had escaped into the warp. The remaining heavier and more primitive concepts still stayed here, slowly waiting to be absorbed into the warp. break down.

This was the first time that humans had faced the death of a god, and no one had any experience. After the war, Hades immediately sent Mortarion back to the medical room, while Guilliman commanded the army and the Mechanicum. retreat.

Hades took back the Burner and the Void Dragon that he released by the way. Before being contained again, the Void Dragon screamed and cursed Hades for his misfortune.

After Hades left Commorragh for the first time, the physical world anchored by the Star Gods immediately began to collapse, a large amount of spiritual energy was poured in, and the corpses of the gods were washed onto Commorragh.

What is puzzling is that the conceptual fragments of Slaanesh do not come from the current warp, but from other times, anchored by the death of the god here, and then dissipated into the warp again with the death.

After a brief discussion, the decision-makers have always believed that the corpses of Slaanesh cannot be allowed to flow into the subspace and breed new demons or demigods.

Hades crushed the power that could not be used at present, and the concepts formed in the subspace were shattered and turned into turbulence again.

Waiting for thousands of years to re-extract them from the turbulence of subspace.

Even if they are shattered, these turbulences still have power. In order to prevent the subspace here from falling into chaos, the empire will use a large number of black stones to temporarily store part of the spiritual energy, and then release or use them in the future.

It cannot be stored directly, otherwise there is a high probability that demons will grow directly on the black stone storage.

And the authority and concepts left behind...

Everyone looked at Robert Guilliman.

Hades spoke,

"The parts of dominance and greed are already very small - I guess it's because the emperor grabbed it, but it's just less power than other powers. Do what you can, Guilliman."

Guilliman nodded,

[I originally thought that the emperor took away all the dominance and greed, but I didn’t expect that there was still some leftover... Didn’t it come from this time? 】

"It's most likely that Slaanesh's previous authority is also settled in Commorragh."

Guilliman pondered for a moment,

[Can you separate these authorities again? 】

Hades shook his head and scratched his head,

"I can only swallow those parts that are obviously malicious, or the parts that are newly integrated and can still be separated; these lowest concepts have been integrated into one——

You can imagine them as liquids of different densities. When I first poured them in, I could try to separate them, but as time went by, they completely merged into one, and there was no other solution except swallowing them all. "

This is different from the warp turbulence. Many concepts in the subspace turbulence are fragmented and conflicting, while the concepts in the corpse of Slaanesh are pure, numerous, and mutually supportive.

Hades just crushed the authority, and it was more like throwing in raw materials of different materials. The grinder shattered them all with a single sound, and mixed them together with other messy impurities flowing out of the subspace.

Guilliman nodded, it seemed that Hades had done his best.

Hades spread his hands,

"What are you going to do next?"

Guilliman thought of the moment he took over from the Emperor, his victory over the Emperor, his defeat - which meant his submission.

The concept of Overlord automatically attached itself to Guilliman.

But... now there are only fragments without subjective consciousness. Guilliman raised his eyes, and the flash of light was reflected in his eyes.

According to the Sixth Edition of the Psionic Laws previously written by Robert Guilliman, he should now actively summon these authorities through appropriate rituals.

A coronation ceremony? Guilliman felt a chill in his heart.

He suddenly remembered the words of the Lord of Humanity before and realized that he had already stepped into the trap again.

No, no, no, no... there should be other ways.

Just ask Mortarion, who has an incredible depth of psychic knowledge.

[Mortarion, how did you tear off the authority from Chaos in the first place? 】

Mortarion stared at Guilliman calmly. The god of death was holding the scythe in one hand, and reached out to the gas mask with one hand, making a gesture of eating toward his mouth.

【Eat Nurgling. 】

Mortarion said.

? ! ! !

This short sentence set off a shocking wave. Corax stared at Mortarion in shock and took a step back without leaving a trace. Curze tried to insert himself into the darkness of Corax; Guilliman looked pale. Thinking of the appearance of the Nurgling, the options for the coronation ceremony and the regent seemed to become more approachable.

Hades coughed violently and looked back at Mortarion in disbelief.

"N... Nurgling?"

No, buddy? !

【Nurgling. 】

Mortarion's eyes were dead,

[Haven’t you swallowed Nurgle’s spiritual energy, Revenant? 】

Hades opened his mouth in vain, and he announced that the number one ruthless person in his heart had been changed from Neos to Mortarion.

"At least I didn't eat with my mouth..."

This is Hades's last stubbornness.

Mortarion sneered and remained silent.

Seeing that Mortarion remained silent, Hades asked subconsciously,

"……How is the taste?"

Mortarion seemed to be in a better mood.

[Stronger than Slaanesh. 】

? ? ! !

In just one sentence, the waves were set off again, and Corax hid directly in the darkness; Curze's move failed and he was trying to get away from Mortarion at high speed; Guilliman almost looked like his whole person had faded, as if he was out of his mind. .

Because Guilliman remembered that the authority he was about to absorb came from Slaanesh.

He immediately decided to go back and become the regent of the empire.

Mortarion saw Hades's eyes become firm,

"I think you're right,"

Hades said that although eating Nurgling raw was shocking, Mortarion's words were correct, objective, and consistent with the truth.

"Nurgle is indeed stronger than Slaanesh."

They both nodded at the same time and reached an agreement.

Why is there a consensus in a place like this?

Guilliman realized that he was thinking about the worse possibility, so he interrupted his thoughts and turned to how to arrange the coronation ceremony.

Guilliman believes that his consciousness is firm. He can sacrifice everything for the Empire and humanity, but he cannot eat a piece of Slaanesh's corpse in reality. No, not at all.

Robert calmed down and showed an official smile,

[Thanks for the suggestion, Mortarion, but I think I'll try to capture the concept with ritual instead. 】

Mortarion looked at Guilliman suspiciously.

[The ritual may lose some concepts. The most direct and efficient method is to eat, Guilliman. 】

Hades also turned around and tried to comfort Guilliman. Since Mortarion said so, then the capture of concepts should be this process.

He knew where Guilliman's resistance lay, so Hades said thoughtfully,

"The power of today's gods has become abstract - their previous form was just a form of mimicry, and was essentially psychic."

Guilliman's smile remained unwavering;

[I remembered the conversation the Lord of Mankind had with me earlier,]

Guilliman smiled politely,

[He reminded me to use the coronation ceremony to capture the concept, but I just neglected it. 】

"ah?"
