Warhammer 40: My Fiancée Fulgrim.

Chapter 133 Wanting to Become Human (Part 2)

Immediately afterwards, Kasga saw Luo Jia wielding [Eribas] and charging towards him.

!

Something is wrong!
Seeing that things were going badly, Kasga quickly dodged and avoided Luo Jia's powerful attack.

Thank goodness it was Luojia.

If it were any other Primarch who wasn't so shameful, Kasgar would have been either killed or severely injured by this sneak attack with his full-force hammer swing.

The [Eribas] in his hand, wreathed in endless flames, slammed down violently, shattering and collapsing the ground, creating an irregular, massive crater where Kasga had originally stood.

Casgar: "?"

What does it mean?
Was Luo Jia's mind controlled by the Naphites?

Impossible, Primarchs are considered to have a subspace nature.

If it were that easy to mind control a Primarch, then the Four Merchants wouldn't have needed to perform rituals, use daggers, or brainwash Horus for seven days and seven nights in a temple to completely corrupt him.

If she's not being controlled, then what's wrong with Luo Jia right now?

"Alien. How dare you impersonate the Emperor and deceive us."

As Luo Jia spoke, his tone became extremely cold and unpredictable.

"Under the Emperor's might, repent for your deeds."

With that, he raised the [Eribas] in his hand again and charged once more in the direction of Casca at a speed that was impossible for ordinary people to see.

Again!
Upon seeing this, Kasgar immediately threw the large shield he was holding aside to lighten his load and dodged to the side again.

And at that moment, the giant hammer grazed past him.

You can even feel the intense heat of the eternal flames burning on Eribas's body.

This is going to be difficult.

With Luo Jia relentlessly pursuing him for reasons unknown, Kasga was already finding it extremely difficult to dodge the attacks.

As for the highly difficult task of igniting the alien altar, don't even think about it.

"So, what's wrong with Luo Jia this time?!"

"Alien."

After missing his target twice, Luo Jia seemed to realize that his actions were somewhat reckless. He dragged Irebas back into his hands and slowly approached the "Casca".

"How did you manage to impersonate Casca so convincingly that I couldn't find a single flaw?"

Because I am Casca himself! The real deal!

Nobody's impersonating me! Luo Jia, you idiot!
Although he really wanted to say that, his excellent manners made him pause for a moment before slowly and deliberately speaking:
“Luojia, I have never changed since I set foot in this area.”

"Are there any other voices inciting and provoking you to fight me? Don't believe them, those are just the whispers of warp aliens!"

Subspace alien lifeforms.

After realizing that directly revealing the existence of the Primarch Chaos would only pique their interest, Kasgar chose to refer to it as "Warspace Alien".

Anyway, the creatures in the warp are incredibly diverse and bizarre; as the saying goes, "In a big forest, you'll find all kinds of birds."

For someone like Luo Jia, who has a fanatical belief in "Imperial Truth," it can be said to be very effective.

"Have."

After a moment of silence, Luo Jia raised the sledgehammer in his hand again.

"that is you!"

"I?"

"Damn warp alien, I've seen through your disguise!"

Luo Jia lowered his center of gravity, and the hammerhead of the Erebass hammer retracted backward to store power.

At that very moment, it was obvious that Luo Jia's pupils turned pure gold.

Upon entering this mysterious cave, Luo Jia could feel that his vision, illuminated by the Emperor's radiance, could pierce through all illusions!
Even Luo Jia himself couldn't have imagined that the greatest delusion would come from right beside him—the Space Marine who could expose Erebas's lies.

Casgar Sherlock!

He is not human!
"You are not human, but merely a monster in human skin!"

"I can see it, I can see into the very core of all of them!"

"I can see the human energy pulsating within the bodies of others! They are humans blessed by the Emperor!"

"And you!"

"It's nothing more than an ancient, burning flame, stuffed into this hypocritical human shell, disguised as human to deceive me and the Emperor's trust!!!"

Upon hearing this, Casgar froze.

broken.

Because the cave they were in had been completely dragged into the subspace, Luo Jia, with the blessing of strong faith, was able to see through the phenomena to the essence.

Perhaps he, a staunch believer in "Imperial Truth," wouldn't think...
Then he saw the true nature of Casca.

It seems he's right.

"Your lies can no longer be sustained. Confess, alien."

Seeing that Kasgar on the other side had fallen silent, Luo Jia became even more certain of his guess.

Where is there any Casca around here?

It was clearly a golden-red flame with a strong alien aura!

Even if Casca himself is innocent, the imposter standing before him, exuding an alien aura, is definitely not human!

This might be a trick by the Philistines!
Either Casca wasn't human to begin with, but an alien in disguise; or the Naphleum secretly replaced the Casca beside him with this imposter!
In any case, the thing in front of me is definitely not human.

Then consider this guy's right arm, which is covered in psionic cracks, and the psionic flames emanating from it don't seem to be the kind used by human psionicists.
"Not only are they not human."

As Luo Jia spoke, perhaps he had some doubts about the accuracy of his own intelligence.

Just like a detective who can piece together all the clues and suddenly understand everything, Luo Jia continued:

“I can even sense a strong spiritual aura emanating from you—”

To shut up!

To shut up!

Say no more!
This is a slide you absolutely mustn't touch!!!
"Luojia!!!"

"Don't be fooled by the Nephilim's illusions anymore!!!"

"Wake up!!!"

Kasga roared.

If the nature of the subspace is discovered, humanity's existence will be over.

Right, just make a loud noise to cover it up.

Kasgar quickly retreated, and golden-red flames reignited on his right arm.

While Luo Jia was still arguing, Kasga took off running, sprinting towards the altar in the center of the cave.

Forget about whether they're human or not!
Once everyone is pulled out into the real world, Luo Jia will no longer be able to see through the phenomena to the essence of (subspace), and the crisis will naturally be resolved.

"Alien, where do you think you're going!"

Unfortunately, Luo Jia did not give him that opportunity.

Even though Luo Jia was taller and stronger than Kaska at this moment, and was carrying a person in his hand, the speed he could generate when walking on the ground was still unimaginable to Kaska.

Before long, the burning Eribas was close to Casca's face again.

"Luojia, stop!"

"Let me destroy the portal to the altar inside this cave first, then we'll fight it out when we get outside!"

"A futile struggle, alien."

No matter how many lies you tell, you still can't gain my complete trust.

Boom!
As the hammer fell, a corner of the stone altar shattered and collapsed.

The already turbulent and eerie light flickered and then became even more turbulent.

"Stop, Luojia!"

"If we continue to be so stubborn, none of us will be able to escape in the end."

“You can’t handle this portal. If you don’t want to be pulled into the warp along with all the Word Bearers, then trust my judgment!”

"I believe you?"

"I trust my own judgment more than the lies of the aliens."

Using the hammer in his hand to sweep away the dust kicked up by the blow, Luo Jia tossed Irebas aside and continued towards where Casca was.

We can't get any closer!

Casca looked somewhat nervous.

If the altar is recklessly destroyed, the entire cave will explode!
The stone archway of this altar is now covered with a large amount of subspace energy.

If Luo Jia were to casually shatter this place, it wouldn't bring this place back into the real world.

On the contrary, the accumulated subspace energy will unleash an even stronger suction or impact force at the moment of shattering.

Perhaps Kasgar wasn't afraid of such a warp shock, but none of the Space Marines behind him would survive!
As for Kaska, who is now almost driven to the brink of despair by Luojia, there is no better solution than to break the Nephilim's magic without being smashed into mincemeat.

Shabi Luojia
Pig teammates!

What a terrible teammate!

He never expected that the subspace portal, which should have been the natural counter to the flames in his hand, would become an unsolvable puzzle due to Luo Jia's interference!

Casgar understood the significance of something that even the Emperor had to give way to.

"What's going on?"

Seeing their Primarch, Loka, suddenly engaged in a fierce battle with the instructors the Emperor had placed in the Legion of Word Bearers, the Word Bearers and the Princes of the Emperor, lined up behind them, also looked at the two of them with great vigilance.

They even looked at each other with great vigilance.

No one knows whether the enemy legion will turn on them at the command of the Primarch or Commander in the next second.

In this bizarre space, no one knows which side is right.

Or perhaps both sides are right, but they still ended up fighting.

Just like it is now.

Most of the legionary warriors fell silent, with only a few whispers still circulating among the ranks.

This includes Angor, who was just restored to his original state by Kasgar's golden flames and is now standing alone outside the Word Bearers' team.

His cohort, the last of the Colchis-born Word Bearers, all died in their hibernation pods and were wiped out when the aliens boarded.

Now, he is the only new recruit left in the entire Legion of Word Bearers who has just had his seed planted.

He couldn't fit in with the Space Marine predecessors who harbored doubts and distrust towards him.

Even with Casca's guarantee, the experiences he described in Angeltai were so legendary that no one would believe that a recruit who had just completed the gene seed implantation could be so devastating and take over the enemy's stronghold.

【Laum】

Angelte called out in his heart.

What's wrong, Angel?

Do you know who among them is the fake and who is the real? Why did Lord Luojia and Lord Kasga fight each other?

I don't know the specific reason. But judging from Luo Jia's words, it's very likely because he felt that Kaska wasn't human and needed to be eliminated first.

"Is he really human? Raum, can you tell that Casca is different?"

What do you think? Do you believe an ordinary human could cure the demonic mutation in your body?

Raum thought to himself, annoyed.

[So? Have you decided who to help? Now you can control your transformation to a smaller extent, so that the abnormality of this armor won't be noticeable.]

"Since that's the case, Raum, I want to help Casgar out of this predicament."

[Casca?]

I thought you would help your Primarch, not a stranger I just met today who I don't even know if he's human.

He helped me, so naturally I won't hesitate to repay him.

[As for not being human, aren't you the same, Raum?]

Okay, Angel Tey. You've convinced me.

As he spoke, he took a step forward.

"But what should we do?"

"Just do as I say. I have plenty of good ways to deal with charlatans like Luo Jia."

Immediately afterwards, like a legendary sage, Angeltai felt as if a golden halo appeared behind his head.

"Damn it!"

With another roll, Kaska dodged Luo Jia's hammer once again.

During this period of pursuit, Luo Jia did not hold back at all.

If Casgar hadn't received a significant boost during the last Battle of Gadinar, he wouldn't have been able to survive against the Primarch's terrifying speed and power.

Their Primarch-level combat power is far beyond what the current Casca can compare to.

Even Luo Jia?

Even Luo Jia.

As the pursuit intensified, it became increasingly difficult for Casca to dodge attacks in the arena.

Moreover, time is not on his side.

If this continues, everything will be over when the portal unleashes its suction force and drags them all into the warp!
But even if they try to delay, Casca won't be able to hold out until then.

"Alien, you will be punished here."

Just as Kasga rolled away to create some distance, Luo Jia, who was holding a large hammer, caught up at an incredible speed, and his [Eribas] was about to smash down on him again!
It was no longer possible to dodge.

In this final moment, Kasgar had no choice but to raise his right arm, which was wreathed in golden-red flames, in an attempt to stop his opponent.

But this is no different from a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

As the golden cracks reappeared, they seemed to burst open under the powerful wind pressure of the hammer, emitting a golden-red light.

"Alien! Let me see just what kind of monster you are!"

Luo Jia shouted, extremely displeased with Kasga's deception.

But what he found even more intolerable was that it seemed the Emperor didn't dislike Casgar.

This...this is unacceptable!

As an omniscient and omnipotent emperor, he must have known that Casca was different from ordinary people!

In other words, this damned alien dares to be more trusted than me in the Emperor's eyes, and the Emperor even puts him in charge of supervising my Word Bearers!
The Emperor preferred aliens and such.
No, I don't want that kind of thing!

Certainly, he must have used some means to deceive the Emperor and gained the Emperor's trust by exposing Irebas's obsequious behavior!
No wonder!
I originally thought he exposed Iribus for my own good, but who knew this guy had ulterior motives!

It’s really abominable!

But, but it's okay.
As long as we kill this alien, the Emperor won't be fooled by him anymore, hehehe.
Just as he was about to grit his teeth and smash his warhammer down,

Suddenly, a sound like a resounding bell rang in his ears.

Stop what you're doing, Luojia.

The tremor, carrying countless echoes, resonated in Luojia's heart.

"Who?"

Luo Jia, who had already cornered Kasga and was about to slam Eribas down at the last moment, nervously turned around.

That is
A Word Bearer Space Marine, but the intense golden light emanating from him instantly overshadowed all the filth in Luo Jia's heart. That Word Bearer emitted a golden light of the same origin and quality as the Emperor, completely different from the golden-red light of the Casca that carried a strong alien aura.

Can't go wrong.

This is the aura of an emperor.

Even if it wasn't the Emperor himself, it was an angel he sent to guide me!
At the same time, he also sensed the strong human aura emanating from the Word Bearer.

Two different auras appeared on one person at the same time.

There is only one possibility that this situation could occur.

It's the Emperor!
The Emperor has possessed the Word Bearer!

".Father?"

Like encountering Mortalian possessed by E during the Plague Wars, Luo Jia gently put down the warhammer in her hand and looked at the other party with disbelief.

However, it seemed that when he called out to his father, the man with the words paused and stiffened for a moment before continuing to walk in his direction.

That's right, Luojia!
It's me! It's me!

It's Dad!

Luojia

As you point one finger at the other person, Luo Jia, the remaining four fingers are all pointing back at yourself.

While you accuse others of being aliens, have you also noticed a change within yourself?

Tell me, Luojia, if you could meditate and see yourself, what would you see?

Meditation and self-reflection?

Within this strange subspace rift, Luo Jia sensed the differences in the aura of each person.

But it seems he has forgotten to sense his own aura.

After the voice appeared in his mind, he immediately closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

Then, his eyes, which had been filled with disbelief and terror, opened again.

"I"

"I...I'm not human either!"

Kaska isn't the only one who isn't human!
Luojia Luojia Aurelion is also completely inhuman!

Luo Jia discovered the blind spot.

His aura was also different from that of humans!
Just like when he accused the Casca of being a flame from the warp that had been forcibly stuffed into a human body.

He never imagined that the boomerang would come so quickly and accurately.

Compared to the aura of humans, Luo Jia's aura seems to be closer to that of Kaska.

In other words, he and Casca were more like kindred spirits.

Now, he was in a fit of rage, vehemently denouncing Casca for deceiving the Emperor as an Xenomorph and attempting to gain his trust.
Hi.

How did that boomerang hit me on the head?
"I...I...this."

Luo Jia opened her mouth as if to explain herself, but after several attempts, she couldn't utter a single complete sentence.

[This is promising! Raum, keep up the act!]

Of course I want to! But how could I possibly know what kind of person the Cursed Emperor really is!

So what do we do now? Just silently watch him?

I don't know how things should develop next.

[Should I try asking Casca what to do next?]

The one who was "possessed by the emperor" simply looked at him quietly and said nothing.

Luo Jia felt the emperor's distant gaze.

There seemed to be a long silence, until Luo Jia thought the other person was completely disappointed in him.

Luojia, let go of your prejudices.

Let your brother Casca clear away the anomalies; don't let your paranoia and jealousy lead you to the abyss.

"Yes, father."

"Thank you for your guidance."

Just as Luo Jia was listening intently to the "Emperor's" speech, Kasgar was finally able to stand up and point his right hand at the stone archway that shimmered with an eerie warp light.

Bear!
As the golden-red flames continuously weakened and eroded layer upon layer of subspace ripples, even the surrounding cave scenery became illusory and ethereal.

It seemed that some walls, more like interior decorations of a spaceship, gradually appeared before everyone's eyes as the cave scenery dissolved.

"By the Emperor, what kind of witchcraft is this?"

"Get your bomb guns ready! Watch out for ambushes from alien scum when you land!"

"I feel like we're going back!"

It was as if some strange change was taking place in the space they were in.

Alright, Luojia.

The crisis has passed; it's time to return control of the body to him, and it's time for me to leave.

"and many more!"

"Father, there is still something I don't understand, and I would like to ask you about it!"

Luo Jia appeared very anxious. He hurriedly called out to Guang Hua, who was about to get off Angeltai, and almost knelt down.

At this moment, he didn't care about anything in Casca; he just wanted to chat with "The Emperor" a little longer.

Even if it's only for a short while.

Ugh, this stinky idiot's never going to stop, is he?

"Father? What were you saying just now?"

【Haha, it's nothing.】

Child, feel free to ask whatever you want.

I will speak my mind freely.

“That father.”

Luo Jia asked cautiously in a low voice.

"If Horus and I had both fallen into the sea when the Primarch was scattered."

Who would you save first?

What kind of bullshit question is this?!

Whether or not Horus will be saved is still unknown, but as for you, Luojia, I will definitely bury your head in the water!
Raum cursed Luo Jia in his heart.

Then he answered with a smile.

There is no sea on Terra, my child.

The illusion eventually dissipated.

The ground beneath his feet did not appear to be the soil of a cave.

But people.

Among them were human slaves and the bodies of the Philistines.

The terrain remains the same as it was in the cave, rising in the center.

However, you can only realize it when you come out that it is a small mountain made of corpses by the vicious Nephilim.

"These bodies had no fatal external wounds."

Kasgar could sense that this ritual was an evil one that sacrificed the souls of all Nephilim and humans, thus dragging them all into the Warp.

It may indeed be effective for legions that do not understand psionics and do not have a think tank within their legions.

But for Casgar and the flames in his hands...
BYD Luojia.

If he had been even slightly less troublesome, this boarding operation wouldn't have been so fraught with difficulties.

Now, not only did the rear military command dare not keep him, but the frontline boarding fighters were also hesitant to bring him along.

Kasga had some doubts about what Luo Jia could actually do.

Forget it.

After thinking for a moment, he chose to give up.

Let this guy stay in Perfect City and recite his scriptures.

At least it won't cause any problems.

"Thank God, you're finally out."

Seeing Luo Jia, Kasga, and the others reappear in the real world, the Holy Blood Angels, who had been waiting outside for a long time, breathed a sigh of relief.

Where are we?

"The alien's central command center. It has been hacked by our Mechanicus members, and now the alien's last naval force is entirely in our hands."

"Also, you'd better get down from this alien mountain now, our people are about to finish cremating these corpses."

"incineration?"

"Incineration, of course!"

The Holy Blood Angel suddenly became agitated: "Otherwise what? Under the leadership of Lord Saint Gilles, every member of our Holy Blood Angel Legion is a noble warrior who loves art and beauty, on par with the Emperor's son. We would never eat corpses—"

"I was just asking if we needed to take inventory first."

"Yes, yes, we need it."

The naval campaign against the Nephilim was drawing to a close.

After the aliens' evil plot to drag them into the warp was thwarted, all that remained was the cleanup and cleanup of the surface.

There were attempts to dismantle and salvage the captured warship.

"However, given that the Nephilim once performed evil sacrificial magic on this warship, it is unclear what impact this will have on its future dismantling and recycling."

The final solution to this warship was quite simple.

Casca devised a plan for becoming a war general who would be invincible in every battle.

Smash this thing onto the ground.

While dealing with the warships, it also allows for a better reduction in the losses from a small portion of the attack on the surface.

Of course, Casca wouldn't be so sharp-headed as to smash the entire warship onto the ground.

Instead, when the alien warship is transported to near-Earth orbit, it is dismantled into large fragments using the flagship's main gun and pre-disassembly.

After disintegration, these large fragments will strike the surface defenses and alien shields together like meteorites.

While the enemy is overwhelmed and unable to cope, they will provide cover for the subsequent landing of everyone.

The main attack force on the surface was still led by Saint Gilles, Luo Jia, and Kasga respectively.

As for Kasgar, there is quite a bit of discussion about him within the Legion of the Word Bearers.

Kasgar, a Space Marine commander whom the Loka claimed to be an Alien, and also their Word Bearer instructor.

However, after discovering that she and Kasga were the same type of "alien," Luo Jia seemed to keep quiet about such matters and no longer said anything.

"Holy Blood Angels, prepare for the final assault."

At the angel's command, a battle roar like thunder and a tsunami erupted from the Holy Blood Angels Legion.

Although their intelligence has slightly decreased compared to other legions after the original body was brought back, the fighting spirit of the Blood Angels seems to have become even more terrifying after the angels were brought back.

It was already like an unkillable cockroach, and now it's even more terrifying.

Saint Gilles paid no attention to these rumors from the other legions.

After all, when she grew wings, she was not considered a real human by the tribe at that time.

But what does this have to do with her fighting for humanity?

Sa!
As the aircraft landed, Saint Gilles' wings instantly spread open, and he and dozens of escorts carrying jump packs pounced towards the core of the enemy's position.

"Holy Blood Angels, charge with me!"

"Live up to the blood of Sanguinius!"

The final battle went exceptionally smoothly.

The remaining Nephilim, now only a remnant of their defeated army, had placed their hopes on a mysterious ritual performed on the warship, an ancient tale, that would bring them to their deaths.

When the weapons of this final battle were broken and the apocalyptic meteor shower crashed down on the earth, the battle was over.

The arrival of Saint Geres only accelerated this process.

The entire battle didn't take long at all; Saint Gilles, wearing the sorrowful golden mask, had already arrived at the Nephilim's final command center and met their king.

Of course, you may not know this.

Saint Gilles wears a mask because if she didn't, her face would completely draw the attention of all the Blood Angels.

They would be distracted by the prospect of secretly watching their mothers bravely fighting on the battlefield.

Finally, the remaining Nephilim chose to surrender to the angels.

Surrender? You must be joking!

This is a typical misjudgment of angels.

Although angels are very friendly and gentle to humans, they only have endless rage towards these aliens who harm and enslave humanity and control the minds of their fellow human beings.

Once the real battle begins, the angels will not accept even a single surrender.

(Even if you, Angron, beg for mercy, it won't work)
As the spear of Bi Gong pierced and was withdrawn, the golden mask of the angel was stained with new blood.

This only made her look even more terrifying.

It is also more popular within the Holy Blood Angels Legion.

She shows no mercy to her enemies.

The battle is completely over.

After completing the cleanup of Melchior, the Nephilim aliens will come to an end.

From then on, one hundred planets in these dozen or so star systems would become the source of soldiers for the Word Bearers, providing their fleets with a continuous supply of metal ores, food, water, and population.

"It's all over."

Casca breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the mechanical engineers gradually begin to work in the sand below.

After being debrainwashed, the alien vassal soldiers were forced into heavy manual labor, supervised by Imperial auxiliary forces that came to support the legion.

They were tasked with carrying the corpses of the dead Nephilim to a huge fire in the desert, where they would personally burn the aliens they had once worshipped.

Others were incorporated into labor teams to dismantle statues that had been built in the world to worship aliens.

"Mother, please forgive my interruption."

Just as this long-awaited rest was about to begin, Radoron came running quickly from a distance, bowed, and said something.

"Legion affairs require your personal attention."

"What is it, Blood Angel?"

Luo Jia asked with some curiosity.

"It's an internal matter of the legion, sir."

Radolon's expression was somewhat stiff.

“We have a brother… who is lost.”
