Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 428 The Archangel's Question, Father! How Am I Better Than Horus?
The Lion King Leon looked at his father with disappointment, and there was even a hint of disappointment in his eyes. There was something very wrong with the way he looked at the Emperor.

"What's that look in your eyes? Leon, are you questioning your father? Are you questioning the Lord of Mankind?" asked the Emperor.

"I do want to question my father. If you promise to let me lead the fleet to eliminate the traitor, I will chop off his head.

Then I would not doubt it, but now I kind of believe what Sanguinius told me. "Leon said.

The Emperor was also shocked when he heard this. What did Sanguinius and the Lion King say? Did they have any secret communication?

"What did Sanguinius tell you?" the Emperor asked.

“Even Les told me that he was willing to sacrifice his life for you, and that he was willing to give everything he had to save humanity!
But your favorite is Horus! You resurrected him." The Lion King Leon said.

If he had only discovered the trace of Horus, he would not have rashly barged into the Terra Palace and violently pushed open the door.

He would be very happy to find the Emperor, and then happily tell the Emperor, "Father, I have found the traitor! I can eliminate the traitor!"

The reason why he pushed open the door of the Holy Terra Palace so violently today, and even had a hint of questioning at the beginning, was all because of some conversation he had with Sanguinius not long ago.

He cheerfully assured Sanguinius that there was no way such a thing could have happened, that it was impossible for their father to have resurrected Horus.

He immediately told his father the news and then led the army to kill the traitor, but the emperor's words disappointed the Lion King Leon!
The Emperor's answer was ambiguous, and he did not make it clear that he intended to deal with Horus. He knew that the base of the First Legion's Dark Angels was still on the dark side of the Empire, and that the home planets of several of its sister legions were on the dark side of the Empire.

In this situation, destroying the Chaos Space Marine army led by Horus is the perfect option, and this can be achieved with the current strength of the Empire.

Rhodes has more than 70 Space Marine troops under his command, and Guilliman also has more than 50 Space Marine troops under his command!
Together with other newly formed legions, the Empire now has more than 150 million troops at its disposal, and this number is still increasing. The Astartes of the new era are in crazy production.

Not only that, Rhodes also brought a new type of strengthening potion to the Empire, which was made with the blood of the Emperor's incarnation, and could allow ordinary humans to directly reach the level of original interstellar warriors in terms of physical fitness.

Although they do not have the assistance of their special organs, their overall physical fitness is directly comparable to that of the original Space Marines. These strengthening potions were used on mortal troops, and the Empire cannot even calculate the number of their mortal troops.

The Empire is now madly expanding its military and preparing for war. A grand war is waiting for the Empire, and it will be easy and pleasant to exterminate Horus by having several of their Primarchs take action, or even just him alone.

But the emperor unexpectedly rejected his request, which made him doubt.

After all, Horus was killed by the Emperor himself, and the Four Chaos Gods obviously would not resurrect a guy who was against them.

"Since you have discovered it, I don't intend to hide it. I originally planned to tell you and Vulkan about this matter after some time." said the Emperor.

Since his eldest son has already discovered it, there is no need for him to hide it anymore. This matter will eventually be exposed anyway.

"Tell me and Vulkan? Father, you mean Guilliman, and Rhodes, and even Magnus, and Elena, they have known this news for a long time?" The Lion King Lion asked in disbelief.

I didn’t expect that the person who was kept in the dark was actually me, while others had already known about it!

This was a huge sense of gap! Even Lion King Ryan's body shook a few times. The cosmic white tiger, who had just merged with Lion King Ryan for less than half a month, also clearly felt that his partner was in a bad state.

So he immediately used the power of the white tiger to wake up the lion king Ryan and notified Rhodes by the way.

"Mate! No matter what, you have to keep your heart." said Cosmic Hundred Tigers.

"Father! You actually resurrected Horus. How could you, how could you do this? Are you worthy of Sanguinius?" Leon asked.

"I can explain to you and Sanguinius about Horus. No matter who it was, as long as he sat in the position of Warmaster, he would be corrupted by the Chaos God. This was an inevitable result.

And in the final battle with me, Horus was willing to die, and he was even worried that I would not be able to kill Sanguinius." The Emperor said.

If Sanguinius had not died tragically in front of him, he really would not have been able to bring himself to kill his beloved son!

"But is this fair to Sanguinius? He is your archangel! He is your proudest son." said the Lion King Leon.

Sanguinius took part in the defence of Holy Terra, resisting the onslaught of the Chaos rebels before enlisting the Emperor in a decisive battle with Horus, ultimately dying a heroic death.

But the hero was not resurrected! The first one to be resurrected was the traitor. According to what Sanguinius observed in the warp, Horus was probably the Primarch who was resurrected before Guilliman.

"It was a tragedy, one he could have avoided, but for some reason, those who become Warmasters are cursed," the Emperor said.

The fall of the Imperial Warmaster at that time was inevitable.

“Yes, all this was not Horus’ original intention, but Horus still betrayed you and the human empire, even causing the deaths of Ferrus Malus and Sanguinius, and causing several Primarchs to rebel!
You just taught me a few days ago that I should not act on impulse. I punished Luther, but you resurrected Horus. "The Lion King Leon said.

"So I'm giving you the right to punish Luther. No matter what judgment you make, I won't ask.

Moreover, Horus also paid a price. His physical body was indeed killed by me, and at least half of his soul was also destroyed by me, if it weren't for Rhodes' help.

There is no way he can be resurrected. Rhode gave him this chance, so I gave half of his soul to Rhode to help resurrect him." The Emperor said.

Horus' situation is different. It is different from other Primarchs. Although his soul is in his own hands, only the Dark Giant's method can resurrect him.

Even the fusion of the universe's phantom beast could not revive him, because most of his soul was completely killed by himself.

"I want to know the truth of all this, father! I hope you won't lie to me anymore." said the Lion King Leon.

"Okay! I promise you! The story begins when Rhodes came to Holy Terra to repair the Golden Throne for me.

I learned about the life of the Dark Giants. Rhodes suggested to me to resurrect Sanguinius. In the end, Rhodes and I decided to resurrect Horus first. Then it happened like this. "The Emperor told the whole story in detail.

"So, Horus' soul is now bright and free, but he can use the power of chaos and the ultimate dark power, right?" Lion King Leon asked. "That's right! This is also the reason why I didn't resurrect Sanguinius. This dark power is not suitable for Sanguinius. Otherwise, I would definitely resurrect Sanguinius.

Even when the last war broke out on Holy Terra, I was always thinking of a solution.

If possible, the person I want to save most is Sanguinius. Now can you tell me what happened to Sanguinius?" the Emperor said.

If possible, he absolutely did not want his archangel son to fall into chaos, and he wanted to do his best to make up for this.

He knew that Sanguinius must be very sad about this, but he did it for the empire. Under the circumstances at that time, Horus was the only choice.

"Let him come and talk to you in person! Father!" After saying this, the Lion King Leon sat cross-legged on the ground and mobilized his subspace power with all his strength.

Then he drew out his Tiger Soul Divine Sword and slashed at the void, directly opening a subspace rift in Holy Terra.

This is a power that Lion King obtained after fusing with the Cosmic White Tiger. With his own weapons and subspace power, he can open a temporary crack.

The shadow of a handsome man with huge blood-red wings and long blood-red hair appeared in the palace of Holy Terra.

"Sanguinius! My proudest Archangel."

"Father! It's been a long time since we last met!

If you had said this before, I would have happily accepted it, but look at me now. I am no longer the Archangel I once was. I am now a Blood Angel.

After all, your favorite son is Horus. Even if he makes a big mistake, you have to save him, right? " Sanguinius' tone was very cold!
Since the battle of Holy Terra ended, he has been hiding in the warp, hiding from the Chaos God's search for him. Until one day.

He saw in the warp the figure that was so familiar and so hated by him. It was the man who had killed her, the Dark Warmaster Horus.

When he first met Horus, he thought he was just a clone, just like the ones killed by Abaddon, but then he showed power.

He is not just a clone at all. He can transform into a giant nearly 80 meters tall. His combat power is terrifying, even stronger than all other Primarchs.

At this moment, Sanguinius finally confirmed that this extremely powerful dark giant was Horus himself. Sanguinius was very confused.

Horus is clearly dead, so why does he reappear?

In order to figure this out, he kept an eye on Horus, and then found out that Horus was actually gathering Chaos Space Marines and confiscating some Chaos forces to deal with Chaos Warmaster Abaddon.

It even indirectly protects some Imperial worlds from Chaos. These abnormal actions allow Sanguinius to keenly detect that Horus is helping the Empire.

So thinking about all this, Sanguinius quickly came to a conclusion that the Emperor and Rhodes had somehow resurrected Horus and sent this once-traitorous Primarch to carry out a special mission.

How can we be sure that this matter is related to Rhode? Because in this universe, the only change that can rank among the top combat forces is the gigantic change that was brought about by Rhode.

Now if you can't enlarge your body size, then you can't be considered a high-end combat force. The former Chaos Champions, Demon Princes, and Chaos Demons all seem so weak when facing these giant life forms.

That dark giant was obviously the same type of creature as the cosmic mythical beast, so Sanguinius was very sure that when the Lion King Lion was fully awakened and communicated with him through the subspace.

Sanguinius chose not to hide anything from his good brother and told him everything he had discovered.

He did not choose to tell Guilliman or even Magnus about this, because these guys might already know the truth of the matter!

Sanguinius told the Emperor all of his findings, clearing up the Emperor's doubts.

"If killing Horus can make you and Sanguinius feel better, then go ahead, I won't stop you.

Horus will not resist you either." The Emperor spoke slowly.

At this time, the emperor was completely defeated!
Damn Jianqi, this must be your conspiracy. Why didn’t you discover it earlier or later, but at this moment? This must be your trick.

"I've been waiting for you to say this, father. This is not fair to Sanguinius.

Sanguinius, follow me! I'll make the decision for you. We'll kill Horus now. No matter what he says, it's useless." Lion King said.

If you ask me to kill Horus, then I will really kill him. The Emperor chose to remain silent because he really didn't know what to say.

He really was a jerk in this matter! He was also a little speechless.

At this time, the gate of the Terra Palace was opened again, and Rhodes walked in with a smile on his face. Beside him were Elena, Guilliman, and Vulkan, the Lord of the Salamanders.

"What are you guys talking about?" Rhodes smiled as he looked at the Emperor on the Golden Throne and the two Primarchs who were questioning the Emperor.

"Calm down, Lion, and Sanguinius, things are not what you think." Guilliman said.

"You know the truth, so Guilliman and Rhodes, don't stop me." said the Lion King Lion.

“I didn’t mean to stop you, I came here to tell you some good news.

I have found a way to revive Sanguinius. Archangel, you will be resurrected soon. Are you happy?" Rhodes said with a smile.

Old Man Huang, I’m here to save you!
