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

Chapter 296: The Death of Horus
No amount of words can be as shocking as the naked images.

As an outsider, with the help of the Webway, Uslan successfully collected many historical scenes since the Great Rebellion.

Before this moment, all of this was just intelligence descriptions, empty reports that lacked reality.

Even Guilliman and Sanguinius still do not know why Horus fell.

Their speculation was that Horus was dissatisfied with being excluded from the central power by the Emperor, and was even more dissatisfied with the Emperor's favor to mortals over him. Coupled with the instigation of the Chaos in the Warp, Horus rebelled.

Horus was the First Son of the Return. The Emperor took him by his side, taught him by example, and carefully nurtured him for nearly thirty years. He even called him his own Sagittarius, and placed expectations and love on him far beyond that of his other brothers.

It can be said that the Wolf God is the Emperor's most beloved child, and correspondingly, the Wolf God's love for the Emperor exceeds that of his other brothers. His betrayal is incredible.

But now, the scene shown by Uslan was that the mortal governor of Daven, Eugene Tamba, was corrupted by Chaos and stabbed Horus with the enemy blade containing the evil power of the Warp, leading to his fall.

"There were holes in Horus' heart. He was not perfect. He had his own hatreds and greed, which laid the seeds for his fall and the corruption of the warp."

"In fact, in my opinion, the greater responsibility lies with the fact that after Horus was stabbed and fell unconscious, his foolish descendants listened to the instigation of a Word Bearer named Erebus and sent him to the temple on the planet Daven," said Uslan.

He had seen this scene before, but he had no way to tell humans and make them believe him.

The same thing happened to Fulgrim, who saw this and tried to warn the Phoenix Lord, but when he arrived he found him already corrupted.

"That is to say, Horus was the first to face Chaos, right?" Roxi said.

To be honest, he couldn't imagine how the Council of Four Kings of the Wolf God would listen to the instigation of a damn Word Bearer. Their father was unconscious and about to die from his injuries, and a priest from another legion claimed that there was a witch doctor temple with particularly good effects that could save him.

Then, Abaddon, Loken, Torgaddon, and little Horus Eichmander actually handed Horus over to Erebus? !
After the Battle of Calth, the Ultramarines tortured prisoners of war and the insane cultists.

They learned that the instigators of this heart-wrenching betrayal were the Primarch Lorgar's adoptive father Kor Phaeron and the Legion's Chief Chaplain Erebus.

The former was reduced to ashes by Roche's ship while being pursued by the Macragge's Glory and has now been declared dead.

The latter had already fled and disappeared without a trace. The Ultramarines have been desperately pursuing Erebus's whereabouts, hoping to one day destroy this heinous villain.

"Our beloved brother, the Wolf God Horus is dead." Guilliman said.

He once hated Horus's betrayal for destroying the Emperor's dream of revival and dragging his Five Hundred Worlds into the galactic war, but now it seemed that Horus was also a victim.

"Before he was carried into the temple, he was still our most beloved brother. But when he came out of there, that Horus was already dead. In his place was a completely corrupted puppet controlled by the evil god of the warp!"

"Horus was the first victim. He fell on the front line against Chaos, and those damned things continued to touch his body, controlling him like a puppet, and stabbed his father in the back."

Guilliman, Roche, and Sanguinius were all furious, and their resentment towards Horus was instantly transferred to the Warp.

Because now the Horus who set the galaxy on fire is just a monster named [Horus].

"Forgive my slight, Prophet."

The Lord of Macragge stepped down from his throne and came before Uslan.

He was extremely tall, and even the skinny Eldar prophet only reached his chest and abdomen in front of him.

"You are a respectable person. Before you brought those news, I looked down on you because of your alien identity. This was my arrogance."

"But you have brought us the truth, the truth of Horus's fall. Horus is dead, the Warp has blasphemed his existence and ideals, and we will avenge him."

"Revenge for our first martyred brother. We are all sons of revenge, and you are the apostle who delivers the message."

Uslan felt like he was about to cry, he understood the nature of the Primarch in front of him. If the Primarchs could realize what their own nature was, then they would surpass demigods and truly become [Gods].

And such beings, through his efforts, finally realized the necessity of unity. They are thanking him.

A strong sense of pride and honor surged in his heart, and Uslan's breathing became rapid, but he suppressed it with his strong willpower and kept his heart clear and calm.

Because of the existence of the Lady of Thirst, the Eldar are very averse to intense emotional fluctuations, as that would increase the risk of being noticed by the evil gods.

Pride is the province of the Thirsty Lady, especially among the Eldar.

There were already tears in the eyes of the extremely sensitive elves. Those were tears of joy and extreme excitement after seeing the dawn of hope.

"Don't thank me. I don't care about those illusory things. The only thing that matters to me is whether the real universe can unite and fight against our great enemy together."

"In order to achieve this goal, I am not afraid of death. The career I have been fighting for half my life finally sees the dawn of success. Sorry, I lost my composure."

Uslan wiped the tears from his eyes and turned himself into the wise Eldar prophet again.

"It's going to be alright, Prophet."

Luo Xi patted Uslan's shoulder and comforted him.

Uslan had a great influence on him and inspired him greatly.

Ever since Istvaan V awoke, he had thought of returning to Terra first, taking one last look at humanity's home planet, and then escaping to a place without danger with the Red Alert and the lost technologies to allow humanity to revive.

After experiencing the struggle and perseverance of mankind in places like Calth and Amatra, he chose to stay in Macragge and do his best to help Guilliman defeat the traitors and consolidate his own territory.

But after meeting Uslan, he finally realized who his enemy was and what he should do. It was like a person without long-term plans finally having an ideological program.

The common enemy of many races in the real universe is the Warp, and in order to achieve the great goal of defeating Chaos, alliance is necessary.

With humans at the core, they will form a united front against the Warp and absorb all life that hates the Warp.

"I propose that today, representatives of the Eldar and humans sign an alliance to make a good start for the future," Luo Xi suggested.

He was the first to extend his hand, and Uslan followed closely behind.

Guilliman hesitated for a moment, then covered it with his large, power-armored hand.

"Put it down!"

Roche pulled his hand up, and, wow, with Guilliman's hand on top, only one hand could be seen.

Everyone turned their eyes to Sanguinius, the archangel who had not yet expressed his opinion.

"I."

Sanguinius raised his scarlet sword before him, gently cut his palm, and squeezed out a drop of glowing angel blood.

"I will avenge my friend. What Horus was taken away by the Warp, I will take back for him."

Then, the Archangel's bloody hand joined in, completing the covenant.

Luo Xi's heart was filled with emotion. This was such an important moment.

But he vaguely felt a little empty in his heart. Was there someone missing?
Suddenly, he came to his senses.

What about the Lion King of Caliban?
"Fuck, Ryan, where's Ryan?"
