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

Chapter 294 Meeting the Archangel (Please subscribe)
Luo Xi has forgotten how many times he has walked through this passage.

But this time, under Grod's leadership, the journey seemed particularly long. Luo Xi felt a little uneasy, because the legendary archangel Sanguinius was waiting for him.

Except for the two Primarchs whose existence was completely wiped out, Roxi knew about all the Primarchs, their life stories, their experiences, and their life trajectories.

Even among his many brothers, this archangel is the most special one.

The most intuitive and special point is that all the information mentions that the Archangel Sanguinius, like the angels in mythology, possesses a pair of huge pure white wings.

For the human empire today, if a person grows a pair of wings, the most likely outcome is not to be worshipped as a god, but to be blasted by a promethium flamethrower.

This means genetic mutation, and more likely contamination from the Warp. If Sanguinius was not one of the Primarchs, he would probably be burned to death.

"I remember that Sanguinius landed on the planet Baal, which was full of radioactive dust clouds. He went through hardships and eventually became the leader of the Baal tribe. He successfully repelled the mutants who had undergone huge mutations under nuclear radiation. Finally, when the Emperor arrived, Sanguinius swore allegiance to the Emperor and returned to the 9th Legion."

Luo Xi recalled the information about Sanguinius in his mind. He was excited but also a little nervous.

He was somewhat curious whether Sanguinius was really as perfect as the rumors said.

Pushing open a golden door inlaid with sparkling gems, the newly renovated palace was covered with red carpets. The smooth walls made of marble and gold reflected the sunlight refracted from the sky, making the entire palace bright.

Sanguinius sat on the throne in the center, with the unfamiliar Sanguinary Guards in golden armor guarding him, while Guilliman sat on another throne beside him.

The archangel leaned slightly against the metal frame of the throne, his rumored pair of white wings slightly spread out, glittering in the sunlight.

Sanguinius's left hand was slightly bent, supporting his chin, and his right hand was resting on a huge golden sword. Roche moved closer and saw it more clearly.

He was wearing a bright golden power armor with several giant rubies adorning the gorgeous armor. Roxi knew that these rubies symbolized Terra, Baal, and Baal's satellites, and were one of Sanguinius's iconic equipment.

He is truly an angel.

When he saw Sanguinius for the first time, even though he had prepared himself mentally, Roxi was still instantly shocked.

The Lord of the Blood Angels in front of him not only had an unparalleled handsome face, but his eyes also shone with an inviolable nobility. His face had a hint of sorrow and sadness that made people feel sorry for him.

He was certain that even compared with other Primarchs, even compared with the rumored to be unparalleled gorgeous Fulgrim, the Archangel was definitely the most holy and handsome one.

He just sat there, without even saying a word, but he already exuded a transcendent and sacred aura.

It was as if in the mythology, an angel sent down by God revealed his true face.

And his best friend, Guilliman, who was sitting beside him with a smile on his face, was equally handsome and tough like a perfectly carved marble statue, but compared to Sanguinius, he was less sacred and more human.

"I have heard of you from my brother Roboute. Come forward, Roche."

The archangel's voice was soft but powerful, as clear as pearls falling on a jade plate. Roche took a few steps forward and saluted in front of Sanguinius.

He stretched out his hands, as soft as jade, and stopped Luo Xi's complicated etiquette.

"Guilliman has praised your selflessness and justice many times. He treats you as a brother, so naturally you and I are brothers." "Nice to meet you, Sanguinius." Roxi also recovered from the initial shock and shook hands with the archangel's finger in a friendly manner.

Guilliman extended his right hand, pointed to a chair next to him that was suitable for mortal bodies, and motioned for Roche to sit down.

On this high platform, there are three thrones, belonging to Sanguinius, Guilliman and Lion respectively, but Lion does not seem to be here.

And half a step below these three thrones is Luo Xi's seat.

Luo Xi did not hesitate and sat down very naturally. A word instantly emerged in his mind: the Four Giants of the Second Empire.

There is no doubt that he has been deeply bound to this existence, and any mention of the Second Empire in the future will certainly involve this particularly conspicuous mortal.

Sanguinius did not say much, and Roche could see that the archangel seemed a little depressed, so it was Guilliman who spoke mainly.

"My brother returned from the Signus system not long ago. You were not in Macragge at that time. Lion and I explained our current predicament to Sanguinius and invited him to join us in creating this miniature backup of the human empire."

"Yes, you have put me on the crater of a volcano that may erupt at any time." The archangel suddenly spoke and made a vivid metaphor.

Guilliman smiled awkwardly. No matter what, the proposer of this plan could not sit on the position of regent, otherwise everyone would think he was an ambitious conspirator.

Emperor, although Guilliman does care about his five hundred worlds and likes to cultivate his own territory, he definitely has no second thoughts.

"This is a temporary measure, Sanguinius. Even if our father knew about our actions, he would understand us. These are sacrifices made for the future of mankind." Guilliman said righteously.

"My brother was deceived by Horus and sent to the Signus system to destroy the alien empire there. However, everything was a lie. There were only ruins destroyed by the demons of the evil god of the warp."

By now, Guilliman had to admit that the Imperial Truth had great flaws. In the Warp there were evil beings called evil gods. It was they who bewitched Horus and induced his rebellion.

"I feel endless pain for the fall of Horus." Sanguinius closed his eyes, and a crystal tear of blood fell, shattering on the ruby ​​on his golden armor.

"I encountered something in Signus that does not exist in the Imperial Truth: a great keeper of secrets who called himself Keris the Twister, and a monster who called himself Kabanha the Bloodthirster. They attacked my legion and caused heavy losses."

Roxi knew that among all the Primarchs, Sanguinius and Horus had the best relationship, and the closeness between them could even be compared to that between the Phoenix Lord and the Gorgon.

Imagine that your closest blood brother deceived you and transferred you to a remote area in order to overthrow your father's rule, and arranged deadly assassins and desperate traps.

With such a huge blow, it’s no wonder that Sanguinius seemed depressed.

Roche even felt that the reason why Sanguinius could maintain his current state was because of his superhuman will. If it were someone with a weaker mind, he would have probably collapsed.

"Then let me tell you about what I gained at the edge of the galaxy. Fortunately, we got what we needed."

Luo Xi also felt that the atmosphere was a bit dull, so he started to change the subject.

Now that Blackstone is in hand, the plan made long ago can be implemented.
