Warhammer: Emperor's Ravenbringer

Chapter 140 Magnus's Shock

Hearing what Raven said, Alpharius and Omega both showed looks of shame.

"We are worried," Alpharius explained. "Father has always said there are twenty Primarchs, and in my and Omega's situation, we feel that either Father is lying, or one of them is fake."

"We are afraid that once we tell the truth, the entire 20th Legion will be regarded as a typical example of Chaos corruption and will be completely purged by our father."

"Everyone knows my father's character. He is the Lord of Humanity and he loves humans, but he is also a warlord. I know how he originally wanted to deal with the Thunder Warriors."

"If it weren't for Mr. Raven's appearance, the Thunder Warriors would never have had an honorable death on the moon. They would have been purged by the Custodians."

Raven originally looked at Alpharius and Omega with a stern look, but after listening to Alpharius' explanation, he sighed.

"Then why didn't you tell me? Don't you think I won't help you?"

Alpharius bowed his head, "I dare not bet, Mr. Raven. You are one of the supreme rulers of the empire, a time traveler with infinite power."

"To ordinary people, Astartes warriors are demigods and immortal angels of war. But I know that to you, Astartes are nothing. As long as you and father are willing, you can create a new twenty legions."

"But the 20th Legion is everything to us. The descendants cannot live without me, and I cannot live without them. I cannot let the 20th Legion become a thing of the past, a part of history that has been lost."

"You make me sad." Raven said with a sad face, "I will not give up on you, no matter which one of you. So I am watching you all the time to prevent you from going astray."

"What if one day the existence of the Alpha Legion poses a huge threat to human civilization?" asked Alpharius.

"Then we still have to get rid of you." Raven put away his sadness and said seriously.

The sudden change of topic made Curze, Alpharius who was expecting Raven to say no, and Omega confused.

The script shouldn't be like this!!
Shouldn't you have said firmly that I will never abandon you?

"I know my answer makes you sad, but for the sake of human civilization, we are all expendable pawns." Raven looked at the three Primarchs, "Every soldier of the Empire, Astartes, Primarchs, Custodes, including me and Big Guy, are expendable."

“In this grand game, if we don’t have the courage to see ourselves as bargaining chips, we will never be able to win.”

"But I can assure you that unless I am forced into a desperate situation, I will never give up on you. Even if I make the decision to give up on you, you will be informed."

The three Primarchs looked at the raven and fell silent.

"I can choose to lie to you, but that would be meaningless, because lies give rise to confusion, confusion breeds insecurity, and insecurity breeds betrayal."

Raven spoke in a calm voice and slowly.

"You are powerful, so you are destined to walk a very difficult path. You may even be misunderstood, questioned, or even stigmatized."

"If you find it unacceptable, you can choose to withdraw now. As the Supreme Ruler of the Empire, I guarantee that you will never be liquidated by the Empire. The legion you belong to will not be disbanded, but will return to a state without a Primarch."

"There is only one condition, and that is that you must give up your own power to avoid causing irreparable damage to the empire in the future."

The raven flapped its wings, brushing through the air, its eyes fixed on the three primarchs.

"I have said enough. You don't need to listen to my nonsense anymore. The only question left is, will you leave me?"

Alpharius and Omega looked at each other and instantly understood each other's thoughts.

"We're not leaving, Mr. Raven."

Koz shrugged. "This matter has nothing to do with me. From the moment I became self-aware, I was very clear that I was just a tool."

Raven said: "Don't try to hide anything from me next time, Afa, Koz, you too. You have already had a migraine from the hallucinations. If you continue like this, you will probably go crazy."

"Vision? Is it a vision of the future?" Alpharius looked at Curze. "Is it still as dark as before?"

Koz nodded.

"What was my ending in your illusion?" Alpharius asked curiously.

Curze was silent for a while, then he slowly said: "There are many endings. There is a good one, you will create an organization called Hydra, dedicated to spreading the Empire's beliefs and truths throughout the universe, and controlling one universe after another."

"And the worst possible outcome is being killed by some powerful creature in a remote universe, with the armor shattered and the body incomplete."

Alpharius said: "The bad ending is terrible, but the name Hydra is pretty good. When I went to the Marvel Universe, I heard that there was a similar organization there. Maybe I will control it in the future."

Then he would trick Captain America into joining. Raven planned the members of the Hydra organization for Ah Fa in advance.

Just thinking about Captain America shouting "Long live Hydra" makes me feel inexplicably excited.

What is the current situation of the Marvel Universe? !
Has the multi-dimensional offensive launched by the Polyhedron been thwarted by the Avengers, or has the war only intensified?

It doesn’t matter if the war expands, maybe we can reach a cooperation with OAA and let the Empire rule the Marvel Universe and start a new chapter.

"You should learn from this incident. If it happens again, I will take you back to Terra and put you in a dark room. Remember to discuss anything with me first. Even if you expose the Supreme Heaven, I must know about it so that I can help you fix it in time."

The raven's warning made the three primarchs nod like chicks pecking at rice, and they kept saying that there would never be a next time.

The Astartes warriors standing in the distance would glance over here from time to time.

In the entire Empire, the only person who can treat the Primarch like a child is Mr. Raven.

After dealing with the cult's issues, Raven prepared to leave.

"Please accept this, Mr. Raven."

Alpharius ordered his men to bring out the new flavors of French fries and ketchup that they had obtained during this period.

"Ah Fa, are you using this to test the cadres?"

Raven looked at the piles of new flavors of fries and ketchup, and said something that made Alpharius and Omega's hearts rise to their throats.

"I have to say, you are really good at judging people. Keep doing it next time."

After taking away the Alpha Legion's gains during this period, Raven sent Curze back.

He also sent the members of the cult to the flagship of the Midnight Legion, asked Curze to entertain them well, and then sent someone to send them to Terra.

After dealing with these, Raven went to see Angron again.

Negotiations between the Empire and the Space Dwarves continue, with the two sides arguing back and forth over rights and obligations, but there is progress.

In time, the space dwarves will become part of the Empire.

Raven did not appear before Angron, and after confirming that the peace talks were okay, he returned to Terra.

"Mr. Raven."

"Mr. Raven."

As soon as he came back, Raven met the ship girls group visiting the Terra Palace.

They were amazed by the magnificent palace.

The human civilization in the Azur Lane universe is also an interstellar civilization.

But there are far fewer wonders than the human empire.

There had never been such a grand and majestic palace built.

"Dear." Raven, with the mentality that if you don't take advantage of an opportunity, you will suffer a loss, rubbed against them one by one.

"Raven, you old pervert." A voice sounded in his heart.

A mature lady with a curvy figure, shrouded in golden light, walked past the ship girl and came in front of Raven.

There is a halo behind her, like a god in the world of KanColle.

"The Emperor's Grand Plan!" Raven recognized the identity of this ship at a glance. Isn't it the flagship of the big guy! !
As the big guy sat on the Golden Throne and became more powerful, she also gained an upgrade, stronger than ordinary Astartes and Custodes. Raven suspected that this guy could fight Waldor on equal terms.

"Where have you been? I haven't seen you in the past few days."

Emperor Grand Vision reached out and took Raven from Tai Feng's shoulder, who looked reluctant, and placed him on his own shoulder.

"Be respectful to me, I am the ruler of the empire." The raven raised his head.

The Emperor's Grand Vision curled his lips and spoke from his heart.

"A lecherous bird."

Raven felt a little itchy and wanted to beat this guy up.

This guy definitely inherited the big guy's foul-mouthed personality.

Before he could complain, Raven saw two new ship girls.

A girl wearing yellow armor, with a curvy figure, a shy look, and looking a little timid.

The other one was wearing iron-gray armor and also had a good figure, but his eyes were very aggressive, as if he wanted to hit anyone he saw with a club.

"Eternal Crusade? Blood of Steel?"

Raven was a little surprised when he read the information about the two new ship girls.

My goodness, are they planning to turn the Glory Queen class into a ship girl? !
"With the approval of Lord Perturabo and Lord Malcador, the plan is to make all the warships of the empire over the second generation intelligent. The Eternal Crusade and Blood of Steel both meet this requirement, so they are implanted with Mind Cubes."

"Not only the battleships, they also plan to conduct in-depth analysis and transformation of the Mind Cube, integrate the technology of other universes, give it wisdom, and further integrate machines and humans."

The Emperor's Grandeur explains Perturabo and Malcador's plans.

Perhaps it was the loyalty of the battleships to humans that they saw after they were personified in the Azur Lane universe that gave them new ideas.

Raven shrugged, "As they please."

I always feel that the style of Empire is about to collapse.

At that time, a group of Astartes shouted for the Emperor, for the Empire, and then a group of ship girls and machine girls followed them and launched attacks.

Just thinking about it makes me feel devastated.

After saying goodbye to the visiting group of ship girls, Raven went to find the Emperor.

He is still conducting experiments to further improve the Golden Throne, and also plans to establish a subspace local area network unique to humans.

It is equivalent to the orcs' WAAAGH force field.

Previously, there had been few results in reverse-engineering the orcs' WAAAGH force field, but now it has received support from the Laughing God - Xilego.

The Emperor unlocked some of the secrets of the Ancients' creations and learned the secret of the WAAAGH force field.

Combined with the technology he had previously acquired in the Marvel Universe and the Ultra Universe, he ambitiously wanted to create a local area network to avoid the influence of chaos.

This practice is equivalent to building a divine domain in the subspace. It is conceivable that it will be attacked by many subspace creatures, and it will be another tough battle.

After the Emperor finished the experiment, he asked Raven about the progress of the negotiations between Angron and the space dwarves, and then devoted himself to the experiment again.

Most of the affairs of the Empire fell to Malcador.

Malcador had tried to get the ravens to share the work.

"Sorry, I'm not cut out for this!!"

Raven refused outright.

When the Zhutian Management Bureau was first established, he was responsible for finding a few people, and he already felt it was troublesome.

Now, if you still want me to handle government affairs, forget it.

Makado will suffer first, and then I will enjoy the happiness.

Over time, most of the galaxy came under the control of the Empire.

Rogue traders began to try to explore other galaxies.

The task of collecting the keys to the Black Library has been assigned to Lion.

The cooperation between the Empire and the Azur Lane Universe has been further deepened. In addition to supporting various advanced technologies, it also provides a large amount of resources.

Of course, these come at a price.

The reputation of the empire quickly spread throughout human society in Azur Lane.

Envoys began to enter the command center and intervene in the war between the ship girls and the Sirens.

As the Empire expanded, the lost Primarchs were found one by one and sent back to Terra.

The first to be sent to Terra was Magnus.

He grew up on a planet called Prospero, and possessed psychic powers second only to those of the Emperor and Malcador.

A loud bell rang inside the ship, indicating that the destination had been reached.

The shutters of the portholes were raised.

Magnus looked out the porthole and saw the solar system filled with magnificent celestial structures, which shocked him.

However, what shocked him the most was the completion of Perturabo's Wrath when he arrived on Terra.

The testing process of this celestial-level creation made him open his eyes wide and made him realize how terrifying the human empire is.

The size of Perturabo's Wrath is so exaggerated that the stars are just embellishments of this scepter.

When this scepter is activated, the energy of the entire star is quickly absorbed and transformed into pure energy that flows with brilliant light.

Colorful streams of light flowed through the complex giant structure, and countless arrays and matrices were lit up.

Space and time became distorted, and eventually, a space-time channel opened up.

Then, the end of the scepter began to glow.

A beam of light shot out, piercing through the stars, and hit an uninhabited planet tens of thousands of light years away.

The light beam easily penetrated the surface and entered the core, causing a huge explosion.

The horrific explosion tore the mantle and crust apart, shattering them, and then the entire planet followed suit.

In just a few seconds, a planet was destroyed.

Magnus watched this scene with his eyes widened.

The arrogance in his heart that was fostered by his super psychic powers disappeared without a trace.

The enemy might not even notice such a terrifying long-range attack before the star-destroying beam landed on their heads.

What use is that little bit of spiritual energy I have?

Witnessing Perturabo's wrath, Magnus was taken to the palace to meet his father.
