Warhammer: My Biological Father Emperor and My Demigod Brother

Chapter 469 Anda's Mischief, Dorn's "Degradation," God's Enemy: The Beast (3K)

"How exactly was that thing made—?"

Pete's Primarch is recovering her physical condition rapidly. Although she still looks a bit disheveled, she is actually ready to rejoin the battle right now.

The person who answered his question was Dorn, who had just walked in, carrying a medic's tray filled with medicines, injections, and surgical instruments.

"Based on early sample analysis, that thing may be a failed product from the early data collection phase of the Primarch's physical creation. We found Angron's name on it, which may have been the Angron who was sent back, allowing Father to start the Primarch's research ahead of schedule."

Dorn put the plate down, and Little Pete sat up against the wall, waving her hand and saying:

“I don’t need any of these. Some of the injections can’t even get into my skin. I’m starting to imagine what would happen if the Primarch was seriously injured but the surgical instruments were unusable. Would we rely on our bodies’ regenerative abilities?”

Dorn shrugged. “I just thought it would be more appropriate to bring these things when I came to see you, rather than some tedious technical information. Or I should have gone to Fogrem’s to find some disguise potions, although I think they’re just cosmetics, but Fogrem calls them potions.”

The thought of having to put those strange things on her face didn't make Xiao Pei feel disgusted; she just found it a bit unbelievable.

"The Emperor's son is making good progress at the front; does he still remember to tinker with those things?"

Dorn approached Little Pete and sat down against the wall as well. He reached out and crushed the potion. This didn't need to be injected; it could be applied topically and would at least make the bruises on the Primarch's body disappear.

That face, whose expression almost never changed, speculated:

"It may be related to Aaron. You should understand that there is another secret society within the Primarch, possibly led by Horus and Logar. The Khan is aware of it but has not joined."

“Our brothers remember their elder brother in other ways.”

Little Pete turned her head away, seemingly resisting Dorn's actions, but in reality, she didn't do anything substantial in terms of resistance, muttering to herself:

"Let's get down to business. Can't we use the planet-destroying weapon to destroy the beasts?"

Dorn shook his head and said:

"For an object to be classified as a celestial body in astronomy, combined with the physical strength of the original body, we would need to clear at least the outer reaches of the solar system, and even cause gravitational changes in Jupiter and Saturn."

Xiao Pei complained, "Isn't that thing only able to differentiate into a physical form right now? That means its true form is also limited by its strength and can only hide beneath Neptune's icy ocean."

"We can cut the flesh with a dull knife and kill that thing."

Dorn, unusually, laughed out loud at Little Pei's idea:

"Haha, that's impressive. Even considering the energy loss from differentiating those bodies, it's probably enough to create seven million Primarch-level bodies. All the Astartes combined don't even have that many. Even without power armor, I don't know how long it would take to kill them all."

He poked at the bruises on Xiao Pei's arm:

"Or you could be beaten seven million times."

Xiao Pei was very dissatisfied and moved her arm away: "I thought you would comfort me, but I didn't expect you to make sarcastic remarks. Forget it, I'll go find that old man in three years and let him clean up this mess."

Dorn nodded and said, "That's the prudent approach. If I hadn't found the psionic traces left by my father when I passed by Pluto, and then discovered the corresponding psionic echoes beneath the icy ocean of Neptune, I might not have discovered the existence of the beast. As long as no one provokes it, that thing won't be dangerous, at least not for now."

Peturabo, recalling the words "Satan, Antichrist, Beast" that Loka had used, pressed further:

"This thing has something to do with Aaron? I think Lojia is completely delusional. He himself said there is no God and that he has found the truth, but now he's just a complete charlatan."

Dorn asked in confusion, "You didn't finish reading the report I gave you?"

Xiao Pei laughed heartily, then moved closer and put her arm around Dorn's shoulder: "As soon as I heard the audio at the beginning, before it was even decrypted, I knew it was the old man's voice, so I turned it off to avoid getting too emotional. It's better to hear it yourself."

(Dorn: I think you're quite cunning, fourth brother.)

Dorn could only sigh:

"This thing is related to the creation of the Primarch and has traces of Angron, so it's highly likely that my brother was also there. I guess they initially just had a wild idea, then Father accidentally messed things up and didn't dare tell my brother, so he could only hide it on Neptune. We all know that's just Father's personality."

"As for the so-called 'Antichrist' and 'beast,' these are the oldest religious concepts in ancient Terra. They adapted the story of the creator god taming the beast that represented chaos. In ancient mythology, the beast was an equal to the god, and it was even believed that a part of humanity came from the beast."

"And that religion began to proclaim that its God was supreme, omniscient and omnipotent. Naturally, the beast gradually transformed from the opposite of God into a disruptor of order, but it did not pay attention to the concept of affecting the current stable world and no longer occupied an equal position. After all, the rulers could not admit that there was an existence that was completely equal to God and could even overthrow the current world."

"All of the above, intertwined with human civilization's understanding of the chaotic world, gradually deepened and established its own system, which is one of the characteristics of civilization's progress. However, one position is certain, and that is the oldest enemy of God."

Xiao Pei pouted and said, "Such a simple thing, I can understand it as the ancient giants suppressed underground in the Olympian mythology. But that makes sense, in my hometown, the king of gods is also afraid that these giants will reappear and overturn the ruling order."

"Is it a kind of spiritual victory that humans naturally elevate the god they believe in to a higher position and demote the enemy to a lower position?"

Dorn didn't react much whether Little Pei moved away or closer. Even though he felt like he was leaning against Little Pei, he didn't feel restrained and smiled:

"Given the existence of the subspace, and considering the information Guilliman and Omega previously found beneath the Golden Throne, this victory might be what our world needs."

Xiao Pei dismissed this with disdain. He had personally witnessed the demon named Satan and didn't think it was that powerful. Whether in terms of soul or physical body, he could beat that demon to its knees.

Xiao Pei joked, "I know what's going on now. You can think of ways to deal with the beast yourselves. What if this thing wakes up one day and heads straight for Terra?"

"Since it could be an early experiment on the Primarch's physical body, it might even be one of our brothers."

Dorn shook his head: "You have a good sense of humor. I wouldn't want a brother like that. Imagine if one day that thing suddenly grew a structure capable of developing consciousness and started calling us 'brother'—"

Xiao Pei seemed unfazed by the chilling scene and chuckled.

"Ha, let the old man worry about it. He poops everywhere and doesn't bury it, making us find it and fill it in ourselves. I bet he's busy dealing with some trouble he caused before by locking down Terra and not letting us go back."

He stood up. He had achieved his goals, his doubts had been resolved, and he had met with Dorn. It was time to return home and attend to his own affairs.

He also had half of his construction team borrowed by Lo Jia, who was going to capture Satan from other worlds, saying that there would be a surprise once they were all gathered together, which would help Xiao Pei's own goals.

So, does Satan think that once he gathers them all, he can wish for his brother to be resurrected?

Seeing this, Dorn asked curiously, "Why don't you stay a little longer?"

Xiao Pei had already reached the door, turned around and smiled:

"If you formally invite me, I might consider staying a few more days, haha."

Dorn shook his head: "Logar and Magnus made a bet to see if you would force your way into Terra after seeing the beast. It seems Logar lost."

Xiao Pei looked regretful, unsure of what to do, staring at Dorn's face:

"Ugh, can't you just say whatever you want to me? You have to bring up these private things as if I'm some kind of clown."

"Wait, you didn't gamble too, did you? No, you're not that kind of person. Never mind, never mind, talking about it is annoying. I'm leaving. When I see Luo Jia later, I'm definitely going to punch him."

Little Pei didn't get a reply from Dorn, so she made up her mind to turn and leave.

Only Dorn remained, silently waiting for the communication system to report that the Iron Lord's ships had departed, before forwarding a message to Whisperer and Thousand Sons:

"Petulabo did not forcefully attack Terra, planning to ask his father after three years."

“You can send your chips to Terra, and as previously agreed, I’ll take 20%.”

As Little Pei said, Dorn was not a participant in the betting; he was more like the house.

All the brothers believed that he was a straightforward man who wouldn't resort to tricks, so they were all willing to let Dorn be the judge when placing bets.

It's unclear how long it will take for Little Pete to notice this secret activity, just as he's always been busy with his own plans and rarely knows about the secret society that Dorn just mentioned to him.

In 599 BC, Anda was washing a tablecloth when he squatted on the riverbank in the cold winter. Not far upstream, there was an automatic fishing machine called Sigma.

"This woman, didn't she say these tablecloths were temple property? Why do I have to wash them myself when they're dirty?"

"Damn it, next time I'll just wipe it on her skirt."

The old man was grumbling and cursing, but his hands weren't exactly busy either; even the natural rinsing motion of the water was faster than his hands.

"If only Helios and Apollo were here, they should be turned into human pigs and placed in the house, neither dead nor alive, to be used as smart home devices."

Not far from the riverbank, Aaron listened to the old man's whispers, which was one of the reasons why the immortal uncles disliked him.

He was seeing off several uncles, and to make the blue ox feel valued, Aaron even brought over the fifth one.

"Uncles, please be careful on the road. Bring your own food. Don't worry, it's all made by the temple, not like Xiao An's."

Little An leaned on Aaron's shoulder, resting his head on his brother's smooth scalp, somewhat displeased:

"Brother, my cooking is already quite delicious, and all my offspring say it's very tasty. You wait, until Father researches and creates a wild beast where every part is delicious, then I'll prove myself!"

Chapter 470 The Form of the Deep Sea, Marum Alpharis Form (3K)

Li Dan stroked his beard, stretched out his hand, and said to Xiao An:

“Apollo kept urging me to look at you closely. I wasn’t particularly curious; I thought I should just go with the flow and let nature take its course. When the time is right, I will see.”

“But it may be a long time before we meet again, and my curiosity has grown since I got to know you.”

Aaron lifted Xiao An down and brought her to Li Dan, letting the old man hold Xiao An's wrist.

The old man's expression did not change. After a long while, Xiao An became nervous, wondering if she had fallen ill or if there was some hidden danger, but she did not dare to ask.

Finally, when Li Dan's face showed a look of sudden realization, he chuckled and withdrew his hand.

"So that's how it is. Apollo only saw the surface and has been resisting seeing you in person. Little An, you will become a great hero who will destroy many terrifying enemies."

Before Xiao An could even smile properly after being praised, Aaron couldn't help but smile too. What older brother wouldn't be happy to hear such words?

They watched the men leave, knowing they would disperse again once they were out of town.

The fifth dog was quite interested in the golden ring on the ox's nose, but strongly resisted Xiao An's offer to put a wooden ring on its nose, and began to run ahead, which was unusual for it.

Xiao An chased after them, with Aaron bringing up the rear, as they walked home together.

It seems like nobody remembers Adachi, who was still struggling to wash tablecloths by the river in winter.

Only the fish caught by the automatic fishing machine next to him, precisely every ten minutes, splashing in the bucket, could bring warmth to Anda's cold heart.

Well, from now on, the main body of that edible beast will remain in the water for now, using the buoyancy of the water to prevent it from becoming too big and turning into a lump.

Anda's obsession with creating such a monster was unwavering; after all, it was edible and not as dangerous as the Thunder Warriors or Primarchs.

Whether the fish in my own pot is good or bad, it's going to be eaten anyway, so what, are you expecting me to betray you?!

Just as he had this thought, he heard something floating up in the river ahead, making a loud noise.

Thinking it was some kind of super big fish, I didn't even bother washing the tablecloth. I just grabbed it, hung it on a tree branch, and went to the riverbank. Sure enough, there was a burly figure that was almost two people tall.

Before even getting a good look at the whole thing, Anda had already imagined pushing his donkey cart out, letting the big fish lie on it, and pulling the cart around the main streets of Macedonia.

It would be best to have the young king issue an order for everyone to go out and ensure that they can all see their harvest!

But Anda was quickly disappointed and started cursing:

"Get out of here! It's you! Where's my big fish?!"

The enormous creature that gradually emerged from the water was not a big fish, but a Marum wearing power armor.

The latter did not roll away, but came ashore, where the power armor heated up and dried out the moisture.

When he first arrived more than six months ago, the master told him to get out, and Marum actually left.
