Warhammer: Don't Call Me the God of All Machines

Chapter 165: Hot Vulcan
Luo Xi originally thought that nothing could shock him anymore, but apparently, he was wrong again.

No one expected that a meteorite that fell from Macragge's atmosphere and a charred corpse that was unrecognizable would reveal his true identity as the Eighteenth Son of the Emperor, the most noble Primarch in the galaxy.

Vulkan, Lord of Fire Dragons, Primarch of the Eighteenth Legion of Salamanders.

His last news came from Isstvan V, the planet where Roche had awakened. The Fire Dragon Lord and his brood were reduced to ash by the Iron Warriors' nuclear weapons during the Landing Site Massacre.

Subsequent battlefield reports failed to reveal the whereabouts of the Primarch, and Roboute Guilliman even believed that he had been buried on the treacherous planet along with Ferrus Malus.

During the reception ceremony, Captain Zaitos of the Salamanders stubbornly believed that their father was still alive, and desperately hoped that the Lord of Fire Dragons would return one day and continue to lead them.

"It seems that those fire lizards will be disappointed." Luo Xi sighed as he calmed down.

Even if it was the Primarch, if he was burned like this... he probably wouldn't be able to survive.

Those sophisticated instruments did not detect any life activity at all, even the cells were dead, and the high temperature generated by the atmospheric friction could even burn up the huge cosmic meteorites. It was a miracle that so much of Vulcan's flesh was still left.

"What shall we do, Dorlo Yingjie?"

Luo Xi didn't know what to do for a moment. He was just asked by Guilliman to come here to examine the unknown corpse.

But who could have thought that opening a meteorite would give rise to a black legend.

Do you want to tell Guilliman directly that the Macragge meteorite that scared you was actually your brother, Vulkan, the Lord of Fire Dragons?

Your brother has been burned to a crisp.

Even Luo Xi felt that this was a bit of a joke from hell.

"Lord Roshi, no matter what, we still have to notify Lord Guilliman first." Doro felt that there was suddenly a reacting hot melt bomb in his hand, and even he couldn't help sweating profusely.

They found a Primarch, but Master Vulkan appeared to have returned to the Emperor's arms.

This will be earth-shattering news, the death of another Primarch will shake the entire Five Hundred Worlds.

Unlike Ferrus Malus, Vulkan's body was right in front of them, lying in the medical room deep inside their base.

"Then do as you say. This secret must not be leaked before Guilliman agrees!"

Luo Xi said seriously that what he said was actually for Dulles and the other two to hear. Dorlo and the two pharmacists were all extreme warriors, and they knew how to keep secrets.

"I swear, sir, we swear to the Emperor!" Dulles immediately promised.

"You stay here first. I will tell your instructor that you are carrying out a secret mission." Luo Xi thought about it and decided to detain the people here first.

At this moment, above Macragge, a remnant of the Salamanders is gathering. Under Guilliman's orders, they are preparing for battle and replenishing their troops at the same time.

If they knew about Vulkan's body, it would be hard to guarantee that nothing would go wrong.

The appearance of Vulkan's remains was too coincidental. He fell here just after Faros lit up Macragge.

Luo Xi suspected that this was related to Faros. The Lord of Fire Dragons who was in the warp before might have chosen to teleport to Macragge after seeing the lit beacon.

But judging from the results, there seems to be something unexpected.

But no matter what, the facts are here, and the Extreme Warriors are already involved in this big event.

"Fortunately, you were cautious enough and didn't conduct destructive research, otherwise it would be really difficult to end it." Luo Xi also felt a little scared. If the person in charge was a fool and directly performed an autopsy on Vulkan's charred corpse without thinking, he couldn't believe what would happen if the Salamanders found out about this.

Salamanders, the most gentle of all Space Marines, are willing to sacrifice themselves to protect even mortals.

But even the most gentle son of the fire dragon will transform into the most terrifying Purgatory Dragon after seeing the remains of his genetic father being dissected by the Extreme Warriors.

The Son of the Fire Dragon just has a good temper, but he is not without temper. Often the scene when such an honest person gets angry is truly terrifying.

Vulkan's death had nothing to do with the Ultramarines, and the Eighteenth Legion even had to thank these cousins ​​for finding their father's remains for them.

But if Vulkan's remains were destroyed, the Ultramarines would probably also be hated by the Salamanders.

When it comes to the Primarch, the diplomatic relations between the two legions are inevitably involved. Although the Salamanders lost more than 80% of their troops in the Battle of Isstvan V, they are still an independent legion.

"Then Lord Roshi, please convey this news to the Primarch."

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave now."

When Luo Xi was feeling overwhelmed, Yingjie next to him suddenly spoke.

? ?
"Dorlo, don't you look at what you are saying?"

There is no doubt that this is absolutely bad news. Guilliman dreams of having a brother to help him support the current situation, although he has no time to dream.

Even Doro, one of the four heroes, did not want to offend the Father of Genes. This seemingly steady and down-to-earth senior Extreme Warrior also had the idea of ​​shirking responsibility at this moment.

"You are my father's best friend, so you should go. You can comfort him." Dorlo said as he walked out. When Luo Xi came to his senses, these guys with superhuman reaction speeds had already disappeared in the corridor.

"you you you!"

Luo Xi almost couldn't breathe. You, a Smurf with thick eyebrows and big eyes, can actually play tricks.

"You better not fall into my hands!"

In the corner, Dulles and the other two stood facing the wall in tacit understanding, as neatly arranged as three human figures acting as models.

I heard nothing and saw nothing.

Luo Xi felt despair about these guys around him. None of them was willing to sacrifice themselves at the critical moment.

"Vulkan, Lord of Fire Dragon, you are really hot to the touch." He murmured, and suddenly realized that he had some talent for telling jokes.

He was also a reasonable man. He asked the three untouchables to leave the medical room which had been designated as a restricted area. There was nothing for them to do here anyway.

Dulles immediately left with his two companions without looking back. No matter where they went, they did not want to stay with a dead Primarch.

This is a huge trouble, and even the slightest involvement could lead to bad luck.

"Let's go, let's go. We must tell Guilliman whether it is good or bad. I hope his heart is strong enough." Roxi also left the room, but he issued an order to completely block it. No one was allowed to touch the body again.

Vulkan's remains can only be touched by Guilliman himself, or recovered by the Salamanders themselves.
