Warhammer: This Galen's Heart of Steel

Chapter 113: The Luna Wolves Stole Blackstone Fortress
Sanguinius looked at his Herald with pride, having recovered from his ghoul-eating lust in time. It seemed that his teachings to the Blood Angels had been effective.

Since taking over the IX Legion, Sanguinius has managed to raise his prestige within the Legion to unprecedented heights by swearing allegiance to his extraordinary children, who madly worship this unique Primarch, their Gene-Father.

It is precisely because of this worship that Sanguinius' plan to transform the Blood Angels has fewer obstacles.

Although acts of necrophilia still occur, most of the Blood Angels strive to free themselves from their past heresies and embrace the holy arms of the Archangels.

On the battlefield, Sanguinor knelt devoutly at the feet of the Father of Genes, repenting for his irrational behavior.

The archangel's words of praise made Sanguinius feel deeply guilty from the bottom of his heart. He was absolutely sure that he was not worthy of Sanguinius's praise because he almost went down the path of cannibalism again.

The guilt was like a knife in his heart, reminding him not to worry about them anymore.

Back on the Red Tear, the Blood Priest brought a blood drawer and a blood chalice to Sanguinor and other injured Blood Angels.

As a medical device, the blood drawer can heal the wounds of soldiers. It is also a tool for blood priests who work part-time as pharmacists to preserve the future of the legion - gene seeds.

The Blood Grail brought by the blood sacrifice is different from what we know. The ordinary Blood Grail contains the blood of Sanguinius himself.

This blood regularly circulates through the veins of the Blood Priests - they inject samples from the chalice into themselves, cutting themselves when necessary to let the blood flow again.

In this way, the blood is constantly kept fresh, so that every sip of blood in the Holy Grail contains a small portion of the original blood of the Primarch.

This time, the holy grail brought by the blood sacrifice contained the original blood of the second primarch, Galen's Crownguard.

This special blood component is extremely vital. Even if the blood sacrificer does not inject it into his own body for preservation, it can remain fresh and vibrant for a long time under the action of special instruments.

The blood priests called this holy grail the "Holy Grail of Recovery". After studying Galen's blood, the priests found a healing method unique to the Blood Angels. Drinking this special blood processed by the priests can restore health faster than ordinary medical methods.

Moreover, regular consumption of this special blood can suppress attacks of blood thirst, which excites the blood priests who have been working to solve the genetic defect of blood thirst.

"My Lord, the blood you provided is so magical. What mythical creature's blood is it? I really want to study the creature that produced this wonderful blood. My intuition tells me that the solution to the Legion's genetic defects lies in that creature."

A blood priest danced excitedly and pestered Sanguinius, hoping that their beloved legion commander could tell him the secret.

"."

Faced with the blood sacrifice's questions, Saint Gilles was speechless.

Of course he knew that the solution to his thirst for blood and lack of money lay in that "creature", but that "creature" had not yet been researched.

"I'm sorry, my loyal son, but I cannot give you an answer to this question."

Hearing the Primarch's words, the Blood Priest was extremely disappointed. This was the first time that Sanguinius rejected the request of his sons.

Looking at his offspring's disappointed expression, the kind-hearted Sanguinius felt a little reluctant, so he spoke.

"However, I can assure you that when I decided to tell you the source of the blood, it must be because a solution to the blood thirst defect had been found."

Sanguinius promised him. In fact, excessive consumption of Galen's blood would cause the Blood Angels' genetic cells to transform into "strong man cells", thus becoming dependent on Galen's blood.

Sanguinius consumed an excessive amount of "Sherry" given to him by Galen, a drink mixed with serum made from his blood, and the cells in his body had been completely transformed into "strong man cells".

Sanguinius needs to consume Galen's blood regularly to avoid the side effects and turning into an old woman with white hair and atrophied muscles.

Thinking of this, Sanguinius sighed. This was the consequence of not following the doctor's advice. He remembered the note left with the red wine.

[Once in March, one cup at a time, drink after meals, don't drink too much~
——Dr. Galen】

Sanguinius left a small amount of blood in the Holy Grail and gave it to the Blood Angels strictly according to the doctor's orders to suppress their blood thirst symptoms.

Of course, the blood used as a recovery potion has been tinkered with in strange ways by the blood priests. Although it has the effect of restoring vitality, it has also lost the magical effect of suppressing blood thirst.

Seeing Sanguinius sigh, the Blood Priest thought that his words had upset the archangel.

All around, countless pairs of angry eyes looked over and stared at the blood sacrifice, with an expression that they were ready to initiate a bloody duel if the archangel was not appeased.

With sweat pouring down his forehead, the blood priest knelt on one knee and promised the holy Sanguinius that he would never mention the "creature" again.

"I'm sorry, I made you misunderstand. I'm not sighing because of this. I just thought of something."

The Archangel has absolutely no dignity as a legion commander, which is the biggest difference between him and other Primarchs. In front of his offspring, Sanguinius is humble.

When dealing with other people, Sanguinius likes to say "sorry" all the time, let alone his own offspring, these poor children. The Archangel's daily routine is to apologize to his offspring for every little thing.

This also leads to a very strange phenomenon. Most of the things in the Legion are done spontaneously by the Blood Angels. They especially favor their own Primarch and protect him.

Even Sanguinor suggested this to the Archangel.

"You just need to sit on the throne, nod and smile. Please leave those dangerous, dirty and bloody tasks to us."

Just as the Blood Angels were resting, the Astropath sent a message from the Randan front.

Sanguinius took the message and opened the folded paper. It was a message from Galen.

“Dear Sanguinius, my ban on entry has been lifted and I am now on the front line of Randan.

I have successfully gained the support of another Primarch, the Primarch of the First Legion, Lion's Jonson, the Lion of Caliban.

How is the situation at Blackrock Fortress going? Due to the blockade by Demacia, we have not received any relevant information."

Sanguinius was in a dilemma.

Because a Blackrock Fortress was occupied by the Moon Wolves.
