Warhammer: Black Emperor

Chapter 615 Sams Arrives After an Abrupt End
The fifth planet, orbiting the yellow star, is located at the center of the Governor's Palace.

"The Corrupted Baron" Per Koscielny strode forward, his vision filled with everything around him composed of different lines.

The same applies to people.

The lines of human conduct are the same colors as those seen through clairvoyance: red for the hands, purple for the head...

The difference is that the psychic sees the overall outline.

The line of rules points to the center, which tells Perl where his weakness lies.

This is of little use against ordinary guards.

The beams of light shot from the guards struck the prism formed by spiritual energy, refracting and dispersing until they vanished without a trace.

Per charged into the enemy ranks, his sword spinning rapidly, the blue light reflecting off his black robe.

Barrios and his men wanted to help Lord Per, but they couldn't find an opportunity.

Their firing speed couldn't keep up with Lord Per's movement speed.

Within seconds, Pell had broken through the governor's palace guards' defenses.

The "Corrupted Baron" rushed into the governor's palace like the wind, and suddenly a gray circular thread and a flash of white light appeared in his eyes.

He glanced around and saw that the two lines of rules were empty.

[Invisible warrior.]
The "Corrupted Baron" charged left and right, changing direction as he aimed the white light at his body, making it impossible for the stealth warriors to pinpoint his location.

The "Corrupted Baron" appeared before the stealth warrior in an instant, his muscles bulging and his black robes billowing.

The "Corrupted Baron" twisted his waist and back, swinging his arms like a cannonball.

[How did he find me?] The invisible man thought in horror as he saw the other man rushing straight at him and realized that his position had been exposed.

boom!
The fist tore through the force field and slammed into the invisible warrior.
Barrios' eyes widened, then his face lit up with fanaticism, and he shouted:

"Lord Pell."

The defense forces and the nobles' private armies cheered loudly.

"I surrender..." the governor said in terror as he looked at the invincible figure being beaten into a heap.

He asked, puzzled, "Who are you?"

“Per Koscielny,” Per thought to himself as he spoke.

[Infiltrate enemy-controlled worlds, create chaos, and reduce casualties.]

This is what our Lord wants us to understand.
At the same moment, above the Whispering Mountains in the southern part of Planet Three.

Ninglu looked down but saw no protective walls or fortifications, and there were no guards in front of the fortress built against the mountain.

The consciousness of the Primarch unfolded, and the labyrinthine black tunnels were filled with limp and twisted corpses.

His consciousness almost simultaneously discerned thirty spacious, irregularly shaped rooms.

Melted snow drips continuously from the black rock roof, and over the years, the accumulated minerals solidify into stalactite columns resembling silver fangs.

In the center of each hall is a huge, man-made pit into which snowmelt flows.

Ning Lu noticed that there were many bottles and jars around the pool, which were just enough to catch the dripping water.

The ground was littered with brooches, coins, animal skulls, and strangely shaped clay figurines.

The stone pillars suspended above the pool are inscribed with worn runes.

Thirty snow-melting temples, nine hundred and eighty-six bizarre corpses.

Their deaths took various forms; some had brooches stuck in their necks, their clothes stained with blood.

Some even swallowed skulls whole, piercing their throats and dying.

Amidst the sound of dripping water, a voice suddenly appeared in Ning Lu's ears.

"Tick-tock, Samus is here."

“Sams, that’s the only name you’ll ever hear.”

"Sams means death and the end."

The sound echoed, and Ninglu followed the whispers, his thoughts spreading to the giant stone courtyard.

It is located at the very bottom of the fortress, a natural crevice sandwiched between two rocks, below which lies a dark and bottomless deep canyon.

Snowmelt flows down the cave walls at the heart of the mountain, and the cold wind whispers through cracks imperceptible to the naked eye.

Seven figures stood motionless on the edge of the cliff.

“I see it, Samus.” A man stared intently at the waterfall cascading down the stone wall.

“Sams is here,” another man whispered, turning to look in Nimrod’s direction, his gaze seemingly piercing through the mountains and fortresses.

“Sams means death and end.” Sams’s whispers murmured softly, a cacophony of sounds, but Nimrod remained unaffected; he hadn’t even entered the Terema state of mind.

Rumble!
Looking at Ning Lu's figure, his head exploded, blood and snow water mixed together.

Ninglu felt his thoughts pause for a moment, and then he saw the person who had spoken first walk into the rushing water.

A lump appeared under his skin, and his body instantly grew two sizes larger. His clothes were torn, dragging down his back like rags.

His face transformed into a canine form, with sharp, fangs growing out and bursting through his jaws.

The other five walked towards the man; their eyes were bloodshot, and yellow light flickered and coalesced into hazy, peculiar patterns.

Nimrod knew that the minds of these Sams followers had been completely controlled.

Within the spirit of the "Chaos Mentor," specks of white, like grains of sand, appeared.

With a thought, the "Chaos Mentor" sent a grain of sand into a person's brain.

As spiritual energy rapidly depletes, the sand-sized egg grows larger at an alarming rate.

The "Chaos Mentor" became ethereal and vanished in an instant.

The "Chaos Mentor's" physical body had just transformed from a physical body into a pure spiritual body when he felt invisible threads connecting him to his body, with the other end being an ever-expanding insect egg.

They shimmered with a dazzling light, strung together like beads, and were shaped like upright rectangles.

With a thought, the "Chaos Mentor" sent his spiritual body, like a kite being pulled by a thread, flying into the radiant "Gateway to the Mind".

boom!
The Samus cultist's head exploded, and then his body was crushed by the black armor.

The "Chaos Mentor" appeared out of nowhere, surrounded by five white, bee-shaped creatures, each about 40 centimeters long.

Amidst the sound of rushing water, the dog-faced man opened his terrifyingly large maw, revealing countless steel needle-like fangs, and began to tear at a person.

The person who was bitten did not resist at all; their head and upper body were bitten off in one bite.

A jet of blood gushed forth. "Sams has arrived."

Nimrod saw the canine-like man, who had grown to the size of an Astartes.

[Seemingly beyond the realm of possession, the sacrificial rituals performed by the Sams believers allowed him to penetrate the veil and form a body that would walk the real world for an extended period.]
While pondering, Nimrod decided to kill the remaining three believers who rushed to the side of the canine creature and sacrificed themselves.

The moment the thought crossed his mind, five white bees swooped down on the three of them.

Its ferocious jaws crushed one person's head, while its sharp claws tore apart two others.

[When I advanced to "Chaos Mentor," I learned that the bees spawned from the "Soul-Eating Egg" will not obey the commands of their creator.]
Ninglu realized that the material he used was a queen bee, and immediately understood the reason.

He had another thought and gave the order to attack the canine creature.

The five white bees immediately abandoned the corpse and flew toward the enemy.

The canine-like creature swung its large, claw-like hands with protruding nails, tearing apart two white bees.

He roared loudly, and the wind swept three white bees into his mouth.

A strong wind rose, and two sharp horns protruded from the canine creature's head, its hair standing on end.

"Sams, they're here..."

Samus looked at Ninglu with his emerald green eyes, and was about to speak when a will as powerful as a falling meteorite pressed down on him.

His voice was cut off before he could even utter a sound.

Samus let out a monstrous scream as his body shattered.

The "Chaos Mentor" used "Willpower" to dispel the intrusion into reality and banished Samus, who had not yet fully obtained a permanent body.

Immediately, golden flames rose from his wings.

The power of the Burner's Shards ignited the spring, engulfing the entire castle in flames.

Ning Lu leaped out, and the Whisper Mountain Range burst into flames.

The communication bead buzzed, and Alsena Dunn's voice came through.

"My lord, the fleet's communications chief confirms that the whispering has ceased."

"The chapters have established contact with their lords. The explosion caused by the Fate Lord on Planet One triggered an earthquake, and the entire command base sank underground in the disaster."

"The Dark Lord put the commanders of Planet Four into a collective slumber, and they have all been captured."

"..."

Nimrod listened to the report: "The Witch of Pleasure" Maria Kournikova has taken control of Admiral Raspadori Costis. The fleets of the four chapters have encountered no resistance, and most of the star system has been taken over by the Legion.

"Order the technology sergeant to retrieve the stealth warrior's force field and energy weapons, as well as other standard manufacturing templates."

"..."

He swiftly flew through the air, issuing orders.

In the blink of an eye, he had left the Whispering Mountains and returned to the High City.

Ninglu looked down over the entire city. The flames gradually subsided, the shadows of order landed, and the chaos subsided.

On a whim, he set off for the "Land of Chaos".

　P.S.: I updated yesterday ahead of schedule so as not to keep everyone waiting too long.
