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

Chapter 471: A Shocking Stab (Please Subscribe)
Compared to Chagatai Khan who was almost unilaterally slaughtered by Horus, the Wolf King, who had made prior preparations and passed the Trial of Fenris, was obviously more at ease.

Relying on the power of the Spear of Dionysus, he was able to effectively intimidate Horus, and the arrogant Warmaster obviously did not despise the Emperor's power as much as he said.

He didn't know what would happen if he was stabbed by the Spear of Dionysus, so Horus nibbled away at the space step by step, using the World Breaker Hammer and the Claw of Horus to suppress Leman Russ's displacement and evasion space.

Horus's power was too great, and even Leman Russ, equipped with a new type of power armour designed for the Primarch, was unable to withstand the Warmaster's heavy blows.

Leman Russ must maintain his flexibility to persist in this duel.

"Why are you so convinced that the future told to you by the Warp is true? Horus, you have never been a stubborn and stupid person. You understand that the Warp will never make the truth public."

"Look at your sons. What has the once-heroic Luna Wolves become now? Look at their deformed flesh and blood and their fallen souls. You will destroy your own legion before you destroy humanity."

Hearing the words of the Wolf King, Horus slowed down his attack slightly. He suddenly looked at the Gastlin Terminators behind him. Those metal helmets could not block his sight. He could see the faces of his sons clearly.

Just as the Wolf King had said, every Son of Horus had undergone a mutation in their flesh and blood. The bodies of these once strong, brave and handsome Astartes under their armor had turned into a hideous and terrifying appearance that was enough to stop a child from crying at night.

It was as if he was seeing his son struggling with what was happening for the first time, and Horus froze in his place.

"How……"

The next second, Horus' consciousness was reset by the power of chaos again, and he forgot the ugly faces of the Sons of Horus he had seen.

Under a special filter perspective, the offspring in Horus' eyes still look the same as before.

The evil god's debauched and mocking sneer seemed to come from the void, mocking Leman Russ's useless efforts.

The Wolf King gnashed his teeth in hatred, he knew that those guys who couldn't stand losing were starting to cheat again.

Perhaps Horus's remaining sanity will tell him what is real, but the moment he wakes up, the gods will overwrite this memory.

What he should do and what he should think are all controlled by the Four Gods, like a puppet in their hands, unable to do anything beyond their scope.

Horus seemed to have forgotten that he had failed in his last attempt to persuade the Wolf King to surrender, and began to try again to pull him to his camp.

"Riemann, we are the first to become brothers. As long as you stand by my side, we will be able to reshape the entire galaxy. By then, no matter if it is the Eldar or the Necrons, no matter if it is the demons in the warp or the enemies in the real universe, they will all be annihilated by us."

"For the sake of all mankind, you should pledge allegiance to me."

Rus used the Spear of Dionysus as some kind of war hammer and smashed it down on his head. The sound of the swing tore through the air, but it was barely blocked by the Claw of Horus.

He spurted corrosive saliva, and his huge canine teeth almost bit Horus' face.

"Shut the fuck up, you've said it many times, stop repeating yourself!"

"Why are you still so fussy even though you have fallen into chaos?"

The wolf king responded with standard Fenrisian swear words, looking for an opportunity to deliver a thrust of the spear.

Emperor, just once, just one strike on Horus, and the Spear of Dionysus would reset his mind and soul.

All Father, bless me!

The remnant of the true Horus would be awakened by the power of the Spear of Dionysus, and Leman Russ hoped that this might be able to save the brother he once was.

At least he could die without being contaminated.

Horus jumped high, almost completely ignoring the weight of the specially made Terminator armor that weighed at least several tons. He lifted up the World Breaker. This attack condensed the surging power of the High Heaven, and the Wolf King could only block it with the Spear of Dionysus.

This was no longer a physical weapons confrontation. The Spear of Dionysus and the Hammer of the World Breaker contained two different etheric powers. The aftermath they stirred up in the Sea of ​​Souls even tore apart countless wandering warp creatures.

The trial that the Wolf King experienced in Fenris made him realize his own nature. Only a Primarch who realized his own nature could compete with such a terrifying Horus.

Chagatai did not fully realize this, so he suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Horus.

Behind Leman Russ, there seemed to be countless heroes who had fought for humanity since ancient times. Some of them were wearing ancient armor, holding bronze weapons or even stone weapons, and were engaging in a clumsy and disorganized fight.

Some hunt with stone spears and feed the children of the tribe, while others fight with cross swords to defend the faith in their hearts.

Some people waved their swords and cut off the enemy's heads, shouting "Long live the motherland!"

But their spirit and will are the same, which is why they resonate with Leman Russ and appear from the warp to help the Wolf King fight together.

If the Wolf King and the Warmaster fought in some other arena, such as the surface of a planet, the aftermath of their attack could cause volcanoes to erupt, oceans to send tsunamis flying, and even the planet itself to collapse and be destroyed in the aftermath of the battle.

But the Spirit of Vengeance has become a conceptual existence. It is the altar prepared by the gods of the Warp for Horus and the Emperor, where the true master of mankind will be born.

Horus believed that when he killed the Emperor he would become the new Lord of Mankind.

Therefore, the Spirit of Vengeance would never be destroyed, and the aftermath of the battle between the two was neutralized and eliminated by the power of the subspace here.

Horus' every move was haunted by the power of Chaos from the depths of the Warp, and the Wolf King countered it with the ancient magic of Fenris.

No matter how hard the Space Wolves claim to be, the rune power of Fenris is a relatively safe psychic energy. It is a general term for the gentle power that has been devoured and digested by Fenris's [World Soul].

Leman Russ is like Odin, the father of the gods in the ancient Earth mythology. He holds the divine spear Gungnir and fights against the giants of destruction who are about to destroy Asgard at the time of Ragnarok.

But history always seems to have similarities. The Father of the Gods could not prevent the destruction of Asgard and the demise of the World Tree. Even Leman Russ, who tried his best, could not stop the hammer and claws of Horus.

He had indeed done his best, liberating his own warp power and obtaining the Spear of Dionysus containing the power of the Emperor.

Russ's faith and will were far greater than his past self in the decisive battle with Magnus on Prospero.

"No, I still can't defeat this monster..."

"All-Father, he is too powerful."

The chaotic power of the Warmaster was superior to the arcane magic of Russ in both quality and quantity. In the war of attrition between the two sides, the Wolf King became more and more embarrassed and passive.

Suddenly, Leman Russ was shocked and he figured out something.

He came here not to defeat Horus, but to pierce the Spear of Dionysus into his body.

For this, he could pay any price, and he had made up his mind to die here long before he joined the ship.

Leman Russ wielded the Spear of Dionysus more swiftly and flexibly, and no longer tried to block the terrifying claws of the Wolf God.

Horus left several deep scratches on his brother's armor, almost tearing him into pieces. The Wolf King felt the severe pain from the wounds on his body and burst into the most powerful roar.

"Wake up!"

Horus' claws tore through the Wolf King's shoulder armor, causing countless pieces of armor to fall and scatter. The decomposition field broke the Fenris rune in it, and suddenly countless frosty air currents were released, trying to freeze Horus' attack.

The Warmaster used his power claws to penetrate his brother's arm, then his chest, nearly tearing Leman Russ in two.

But Rus also seized this opportunity that cost his life. Regardless of his own injuries, he injected the last of his strength into the Spear of Dionysus, piercing the most vulnerable part of the Terminator Armor from the side and piercing into Horus' flesh.

Horus looked at his waist and abdomen in disbelief, and bright red blood slowly flowed out.

That was not the polluted blood of the Warp, but the blood of a human.

The power of the Spear of Dionysus burst out, and the Emperor's might expelled the Warp energy that permeated the Warmaster. Soul fire and psychic lightning gushed out from the cracks in the armor and ignited on the bodies of Lupercal and Leman Russ at the same time.

The violent energy fluctuations almost knocked the Spear of Dionysus away, but Leman Russ suppressed this power tightly, allowing it to remain in his brother's body.

Horus staggered backwards, intense trance and painful struggle emerging from his inhuman face.

He looked at his brother who had thrust the Spear of Dionysus into his body.

"Ruth...what am I doing..."
