Warhammer: Emperor's Ravenbringer

Chapter 76 Implanting a Gene Engine into the Primarch

"Let's call it a draw," Horus suggested.

"This is the fairest thing for you and me."

"After all, none of us managed to storm the spire."

"Since you said so, let's call it a draw." Ryan nodded and agreed to Horus' proposal.

The two of them made a bet, and in the end Sanguinius took the lead.

If we continue to argue about this matter, we will definitely become a laughing stock among the other brothers.

I'm afraid my father will be extremely disappointed with both of them.

After a brief meeting, Lion and Horus separated again.

They brought their troops and poured their anger on the dark elves.

The tower guards, composed of the most elite killers and warriors from each ancient family, put up a fierce resistance.

They caused considerable casualties to the Empire.

But the spire was eventually breached.

Countless dead bodies lay on the battlefield, broken limbs were everywhere, it was extremely tragic.

The patriarchs and controllers of various powerful families were either killed by the soldiers of the Ninth Legion or taken prisoner.

Wait for the Emperor and Raven to arrive surrounded by the Imperial Guards.

The battle is nearing its end.

The prisoners were escorted out by the soldiers of the Ninth Army.

"Lacas, you traitor."

"You will be punished."

"."

See the traitor Rakkas following behind the Emperor.

The captives were extremely excited and began to curse with vicious words.

"You will never have peace for the rest of your life, Lakas."

"Comoros will not let you go. Even if you die, you will be dragged into hell and suffer."

A resentful voice sounded, and the person who spoke was the Archon of the Xilian Family.

The port that Lakas deceived and the area that was first attacked by the Empire both belonged to the Hillian family.

A large number of members of the Hillian family lived there.

Those members were brutally slaughtered by the Empire at the beginning of the war.

It can be said that even if Comoros can survive this disaster, the Hillian family will be completely finished.

Lakas looked around at his former colleagues and gave a sinister smile.

He didn't refute them, but walked over.

Inject these people with neurotoxin.

Those who cursed the most were given a double dose.

In an instant, cries of pain rang out one after another.

Lakas laughed, put his hands on his waist, and the terrifying prosthetic limbs behind him unfolded.

It looked both terrifying and arrogant, making people fear and hate it.

"Haven't you idiots figured out who is the slave owner and who is the slave?"

"From today on, you are no longer the high and mighty figures, but my slaves and experimental materials."

"Taste my methods well. Listening to your screams will be my greatest entertainment for a long time to come."

According to the agreement reached before the war, the captured Comorian nobles were given to Lakas.

Judging from the fear and panic on those guys' faces.

It was obvious that they knew exactly what would happen if they fell into Lakas's hands.

"The leader of the bandits has been captured, prepare to retreat." The emperor gave the order.

Raven also spoke up: "Wait until those Chaos Cultists complete the sacrificial ritual, then kill them."

The advantages brought by the sudden attack in the early stage were indeed effective.

The Imperial Army successfully opened a landing site in Comoros and gained a foothold.

However, the expeditionary force was still a little short of manpower. Residents from other areas of the Dark City were arriving in droves.

Like a shark lured by blood.

Swarms of Hellfighters and Reaper airships swooped down and attacked the Imperial forces.

Witch spirits lurk in dark corners and ruins, and gladiators constantly launch raids.

For every enemy the Empire kills, more appear.

As the war spread, the Empire's casualties also increased.

The various forces in Comoros are uniting to fight against the invading human empire.

The Imperial Navy fleet has fallen into decline.

If we delay any further, we will definitely be overwhelmed by the flood of enemies.

The Comoros is like a vicious beast.

If you think about killing it in one go, it will definitely cause a strong counterattack.

It has to be bled out little by little until it loses all its strength, then its head can be chopped off and it will be completely destroyed.

Comoros has no ruler.

Even if the captured dignitaries were killed, it would only plunge Comoros into chaos.

Relying on its previous advantage, the imperial army began to retreat in an orderly manner.

Transport the Titan mecha and the Knight mecha back, let the Astartes monks cover the rear, and let the other troops retreat one by one and shrink the defense line.

The leaders of various forces in Comoros were extremely angry.

The Human Empire's attack on Comoros was undoubtedly a heavy blow to them in the face.

If the Human Empire were allowed to evacuate safely again, it would undoubtedly be another slap in their face.

They would love to keep this human army, especially the Emperor.

Only by leaving behind the Lord of Humanity can they wash away the humiliation they are experiencing today.

However, the viciousness of human beings is beyond their imagination.

Raven had a group of Chaos Cultists perform a sacrificial ritual near the spire, using the bodies of the dead Dark Eldar to summon the minions of the Prince of Pleasure.

Large numbers of Slaanesh daemons poured into Commorragh, causing far more horrific casualties than those of humans.

The various forces in Comoros had to give up chasing humans and turn to deal with the demons pouring into the city.

In this way, the expeditionary force withdrew from Comoros with a load of prisoners.

Asrubail Victor, the archon of the Black Heart Conspiracy, stood in the ruined tower, overlooking the devastation and demons roaming and wreaking havoc in Comoros.

His men are systematically clearing out the demons and stabilizing the situation in Comoros.

Victor is very old, having been born before the Fall of the Eldar.

It is a terrifying being with unparalleled wisdom and brutal ambition.

He climbed up the Dark Eldar's hierarchy of the survival of the fittest, bit by bit.

He single-handedly formed a black-hearted conspiracy group that was powerful enough to shake the powerful.

Upon hearing the news that the human empire had invaded Comoros, he immediately ordered his men to withdraw their forces and keep their troops in place, allowing those powerful people to fight with humans.

Now, those powerful people have become prisoners of the human empire due to Lakas's betrayal, creating a power vacuum.

And he will perfectly fill this power vacuum and become the supreme overlord of Comoros.

"The era of the aristocracy is over."

"The era of Osrubel Victor has begun."

The expeditionary force that successfully evacuated held a grand celebration ceremony.

As the first hero to storm the Commorran spire of power, Sanguinius was honored along with the 9th Legion.

The warriors of the Ninth Legion held their heads high and followed Sanguinius through the crowd of onlookers.

From this moment on, they were the noble Blood Angels and no longer the infamous vampires.

The Emperor did not attend the grand ceremony and entered the laboratory upon his return.

More than half a month later.

The Emperor summoned the Primarchs and prepared to implant into them genetic engines suitable for their characteristics.
