Warhammer: Opening is a Crisis of Doom

An angry Seth stands behind Dante.

With red eyes, he watched the departure of the leader of the Blood Angels.

The cherubs follow behind Dante.

Mechanical wings waved in the air.

The sound from the anti-gravity arrayer echoed in Seth's extraordinary keen senses, becoming weaker and weaker.

When they disappeared completely, Dante also left the place where they gathered.

Seth clenched his fist tightly, but soon let it go again, his eyes showed a trace of decadence and bewilderment.

How could he have any qualifications to blame Dante, all of this was his own doing.

For a long time, Seth believed he was on the right track.

Only he is the one who is absolutely loyal to the archangel and the empire.

Those who are tempted by Guilliman's small favors have deviated from the way of the holy blood

Now, it's all smashed to pieces.

The disappointment and confusion in the archangel's eyes was the biggest blow to Seth.

In the end, he was the one who deviated the farthest from the way of the Holy Blood and the teachings of Sanguinius.

His questioning and anger towards Dante just showed his inner fear.

During this time, he has been afraid to go to see the Archangel alone like the representatives of other chapters.

But he knew that it was impossible to avoid this matter forever, and one day, he had to face the reality.

He will suffer the consequences of his old folly.

No matter what punishment the archangel sent down, he would accept it.

The tallest spire of the Holy Blood is the residence of Sanguinius.

The decoration here is extremely luxurious, no less than those so-called ancient emperors.

The entire hall was made pure black.

The walls, ceiling and floor are all completely covered with carved black marble.

These numerous, finely carved blocks all come from the same black rough.

The glyph depicts the heroes of the Holy Blood Legion who fought bloody battles for mankind holding weapons and wearing armor.

They are the great guardians of humanity.

But under the reflection of the fire, the pitch-black relief looked evil and hideous.

The flickering firelight gave the sculptures a dark and uncertain expression.

Sanguinius sat on his throne.

The huge white wings have been retracted.

He gripped his arcane spear with one hand, and rested his other on the armrest of the throne.

Sitting there like a cold sculpture.

After the summoning order was issued, many holy blood descendants quickly arrived according to the scheduled time.

When the last participant arrived, the blood slave walked up to the identity of the archangel and bowed slightly.

"My lord, everyone has been summoned."

Sanguinius, who was sitting on the throne, nodded, looking around at the many sub-groups that were separated from the former legion.

During this 10,000-year period, there have been multiple military build-ups.

The number of subgroups of the Blood Angels has also expanded a lot.

The huge hall was packed to the brim with representatives of many battle groups.

They stared at Sanguinius on the throne with sincere eyes.

Even though the light is not very good, the surrounding area is surrounded by dark relief halls.

Sanguinius is still radiant, with a touch of melancholy on that holy and perfect face, just like the angels in human's beautiful imagination, grieving for the suffering of all beings.

When many representatives of the chapter gathered in the hall, Sanguinius threw out a shocking news.

"The imperial regent will hold a coronation ceremony on the emperor's birthday."

A stone stirs up a thousand waves.

Countless people were astonished by this news, and the heroes who had experienced countless bloody battles could hardly maintain their inner peace at this time.

Is the Emperor's rule finally about to be replaced?

Seth, the Chapter Leader of the Flesh Tearers Chapter, had an impulse in his heart and shouted at those people.

See, I'm not wrong.

Guilliman just had ideas about the Emperor's position.

Can he change the law, and can he do something to the Emperor's creation?

When the army, law, politics, and economy are all under his control, why can't he replace the original position of the emperor?

However, when he saw the calm face on the archangel's face, there was no change.

Seth also understood the inner thoughts of the archangel.

He suppressed his impulse and did not speak out.

Archangels have no anger at all.

It means that he doesn't really care about it, and he won't stop Guilliman from doing something like that.

Consistent, as Seth guessed.

The next moment, Sanguinius stretched out his hand, motioning the representatives of the many battle groups to quiet down.

"This is my father's will, my brother, the Primarch of the Ultramarines - Guilliman will become the new emperor of the empire, the new lord of mankind. Son of Baal, all who flow through my blood must be loyal to the new emperor, Fight for him. The Space Wolves, the Salamanders, the Raven Guard and many more will be summoned by the Primarch they belong to. Each Primarch will speak the same words and prepare for the arrival of the new Emperor , the Blood Angels and all the Blood Sons will go to Terra to participate in the enthronement ceremony and swear allegiance to the new emperor."

"You don't need to object, because this is not a suggestion, but an order. Disloyalty to the new emperor is disloyalty to the empire, and disloyalty to the emperor will be punished and wiped out by us."

As soon as these words came out, many battle groups looked at me on behalf of you, and I looked at you, but they were speechless.

The Archangel has said such things.

Whoever stands up to oppose is the target of public criticism.

Openly rebelled against his own genetic father in order to oppose the Guilliman hierarchy?

But what is the purpose of doing that? ?

To be loyal to the Emperor, to be loyal to the Empire.

The problem is that the Emperor and the Primarchs who participated in the founding of the Empire agreed to such a thing.

Seth stood in the crowd without making a sound.

After the preparatory meeting is over, go to upgrade the original casting.

After Guilliman ascended the throne.

The age of emperors is truly over.

Either follow the old era and disappear into the long river of history.

Either embrace change, there is no third way.

Before the battle of Prospero, Seth would not hesitate to choose the first option.

He thinks that only in this way can he live up to the blood of Sanguinius in his body.

But now, he knew that the archangel supported Guilliman.

Guilliman's becoming the new emperor is estimated to have already been acquiesced by many primarchs and emperors.

Everything before was just a foreshadowing for his ascension to the throne of God.

Everything will usher in unprecedented changes.

Humanity will usher in a new era

Sanguinius saw that everyone looked at each other in dismay, but did not publicly object, so he nodded.

This matter needs to give them some time to digest.

Presumably, they must be able to think clearly.

Guilliman ruling the empire is humanity's best option.

After talking about Guilliman's enthronement, Sanguinius talked about another matter.

That's where the Blood Angels, the Space Wolves, and the Dark Angels meet.

The rendezvous of the three-party fleet is because two Primarchs are needed to bring back Angron who was thrown into the real universe.

A Primarch brings the captive Traitor Primarch back to Terra.

Dante, as well as several imperial heroes, were selected into Sanguinius' team as followers when they greeted the other brothers.

This is a great honor.

Being able to attend the gathering of the three Primarchs is the greatest affirmation of the loyalty of these people.

Seth couldn't help being a little jealous, if he had completed the original casting upgrade earlier.

Among these people, there may be a place for oneself.

It's a pity that now, he can only watch others accept the honor, but he can only hide on the edge with the fragmented Flesh Tearers.

It all stems from his stupidity.

Three extremely magnificent fleets converged at the edge of a galaxy according to the designated order.

Their arrival once caused local shock.

Planetary governors and galaxy governments keep sending inquiries.

They do not know why such a large fleet appeared in the galaxy.

At present, the situation of each planet in the galaxy is very stable, and there are no problems.

Nor did they turn to the Empire for help.

The sudden appearance of such a huge legion made them feel a little nervous.

After the three Primarchs gave a simple explanation for this, they ignored it.

After all, they won't stay for long.

The meeting takes place in the Stone Keep of the Dark Angels Chapter.

Dante had the Tech-Priest maintain and wax his armor, in order to bring out the spirit of the Son of Blood as much as possible.

Wearing brand-new armor, Dante followed his genetic father to the Stone Fortress.

The huge megalithic fortress is no less than the Holy Blood.

Protected by a massive escort fleet, countless long guns and short cannons shrouded the surface of the cold void.

The industrial city clings to the majestic steel ridge, forming a mobile fortress that can provide its own war equipment.

This is the mainstream trend of the imperial army.

Every Imperial force will have the ability to fight in deep space far from the Empire.

According to the plan of Terra Military Affairs Department, the army of the human empire will enter a new stage in the next few years.

It can be separated from the empire for hundreds or even thousands of years to carry out pioneering operations in the territory far away from the empire.

In the true sense, wherever the Empire's double eagle flags are located, it is all human territory.

The meeting scene of the three Primarchs is exciting.

Many chroniclers regard it as a great moment.

In the tens of thousands of years of the empire, today is the first time that the three Primarchs have gathered together.

It is a pity for these narrators that the three Primarchs did not express any opinion on this.

The primarchs didn't even linger long in public.

After the meeting, we went to the secret meeting room.

An hour and a half later, they came out from inside.

Then, they announced their decision to everyone, that is, the Dark Angel Ryan will be responsible for bringing Magnus and Curze back to Terra.

Space Wolves and Blood Angels will change course.

With the announcement of their decision, the cage where Magnus was held was moved to Stone Keep.

After the meeting, the three fleets sailed to their respective mission places without stopping at all.

They all have to rush back to the solar system before the enthronement ceremony.

Nocturne.

This is the home of the salamanders.

On the surface of Nocturne star stands a huge group of doomsday volcanoes.

The volcano inside is active all year round and erupts from time to time.

According to the investigation of Mechanicus, this is because the doomsday volcanoes are located at the junction of the continental plates, and they are squeezed with the movement of the plates, bringing about volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis.

But the people of Nocturne star stubbornly believe that this is the power of the doomsday volcanoes and the wrath of the fire dragon hidden in it.

There are bound to be arrogant people who are full of confidence and think that the latter statement is a manifestation of ignorance and superstition.

However, neither claim is at fault.

The former is based on rational explanations and research results of the real universe.

The latter is a manifestation based on the disordered power of the subspace.

The fire dragon soul of Nocturne Star is real.

Of course, being real and having a real body are two concepts.

The soul of the fire dragon is a symbolic concept formed by the beliefs of the Nocturne stars.

Priests of the salamander will gain power from the symbol of the fire dragon, so that they can use the power of the ether more safely and ensure that they will not be poisoned by the warp.

The people of Nocturne have mixed feelings about Volcano Doom.

For this source of disaster, they are afraid and awed at the same time.

Salamander warriors need to go to the Doomsday Volcanoes to complete the trials before formally undergoing genetic modification.

Of course, they usually stay on the outskirts of the Doomsday Volcanoes to complete their trials.

In the volcano group, the high temperature and toxic gas brought by many volcanic eruptions are beyond their ability to bear.

Even veterans who have completed genetic modification, even with the protection of armor, dare not walk inside easily.

But now, from the depths of the Doomsday Volcanic Group, there was the sound of beating metal.

The sound is dull and huge, echoing among the volcanoes.

A figure in green armor was active in the crater of the largest volcano in the Doom Volcanoes.

He held a sledgehammer and struck a piece of red-hot metal.

The solid metal changed shape at will under his hands.

If you look closer, you can see that this figure is extremely tall, with knotted muscles, and wearing a huge and heavy armor.

Beside this giant, there are also seven smaller giants also wearing armor.

They watched every move of the giant, remained silent, and stood aside, silent like a sculpture.

The seven smaller giants were the seven captains of the Salamanders.

Before Vulkan arrived on Nocturne, the world was ruled by seven families together.

With the rise of Vulcan, these seven families were soon unified by Vulkan.

After the emperor came, Vulcan kept this tradition and formed a management system of the seven major families within the legion.

The relationship between salamanders and mortal blood relatives is highly preserved.

It is also closely related to the fact that the Salamanders became one of the most relatable legions after their founding.

The seven company commanders watched Vulcan's every move.

Vulkan has been here since his return a year ago, casting some sort of crown.

There was no response to the cries of any of the heirs.

They could only stand here, waiting for the work in Vulkan's hands to be completed.

Today Vulkan is dark-skinned, with green and red streaks covering his body.

One eye was scarlet, and the other had a green glow unique to orcs.

In the beast war, Vulkan and the orc warlord died together.

After an earth-shattering battle, two huge creatures were sent into the energy pile together.

Because of this, the original red eyes of Vulcan, who was resurrected again, changed into green eyes.

Vulkan silently swung the sledgehammer, striking the metal in front of him.

As time passed, the forging in his hands gradually became perfect.

It was an extremely delicate golden eagle laurel crown with intricate textures.

With the final blow of the hammer, Vulkan completed his work.

As he lifted the crown, a golden sun shot from the gray sky, enveloping the crown and the Primarch.

"Now there is only one job left, and that is to bring you to your master." Vulkan looked at the crown in his hand reflecting the dazzling brilliance in the sun, and showed a satisfied smile.

It took him a year of hard work, and the finished product can be said to be flawless.

He turned to look at the seven heirs.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Go get ready, I'm going to Terra."
