Everything that Roche said was true. If the whole thing leaked out due to some accident, they would have to find someone to take responsibility for it. None of the three Primarchs of the Second Empire could take the blame.
Their sanctity and legality were no longer so solid after the emergence of the traitor Primarch, and if they were tainted with the taint of collaborating with the demons of the Warp, how could others be convinced of them?
Why is it that Horus and other traitor Primarchs' cooperation with the Warp is considered treason, while the three Primarchs of the Second Empire contacted Daemons for the sake of the Empire. How can they have the face to say that they are loyal?
Luo Xi's voice was not loud, but his tone was more solemn than ever before.
"Your faith in the Emperor will be denied by everyone, and you will be a complete traitor. And you will have to silently pay for those who accuse you and move forward with a heavy burden. Are you really willing and able to accept this?"
The hermit suddenly laughed, and his laugh was ugly. His dry flesh attached to his bones looked hideously distorted due to the change in his expression.
"I don't care, Roshi, I don't care about these. If these little things can make the Emperor's empire continue for even a second, then just do it. The Emperor is everything to me. If I can fall into the abyss, and His kingdom can rise to heaven, that is what I hope for."
"There are always some people in our human race who cannot see the light. These people walk in the dark, do things that others cannot understand at all, and endure the accusations and insults of others. So why can't this person be me?"
Luo Xi looked at the withered Word Bearer. He was indeed an unreasonable fanatic, but also a loyal man who could never be shaken.
If his genetic father had half the ideological awareness of the hermit, how could he have betrayed the Emperor and thrown himself into Chaos?

As the summoning ceremony progressed, the lion Ryan appeared in the Black Stone Fortress under the protection of his offspring.
He appeared next to Luo Xi almost out of nowhere, scaring him immediately.
"Why are you walking so quietly?" Luo Xi complained.
"In the jungles of Caliban, exposing your position means death. It's just a few simple techniques." The lion said slowly.
He looked at the black stone altar that was emitting filthy beams of light from the Warp, which was connected to a Warp rift. With the Lion King's willpower, he could easily ignore the mutterings and whispers of the Warp.
"Why, are you worried?" Luo Xi asked back. He suspected that the Lion King might have come a long time ago, but they didn't notice it.
Even Sharokin, who had always been his bodyguard, did not notice the lion's hidden tricks.
"It's just a necessary insurance measure to prevent you from screwing up. Although you have taken precautions and placed this dangerous facility on a satellite, it's not enough."
Roche rolled his eyes. Lion himself might not even realize that he was actually a person with very low emotional intelligence. He never considered other people's feelings when speaking. Like this time, he directly began to criticize the plan proposed by Roche and Guilliman.
He simply didn't bother to pay attention to the big cat Caliban with a weird temper, and turned around to continue chatting with the hermit.
The hermit was very respectful to Lion, a respect similar to that he showed to Guilliman, both of which came from the other's identity as the Emperor's son.
In his eyes, Ryan is also the son of God and an existence of extremely respected status.
"Okay, stop trying to please this guy. I'm curious about which Warp Demon you summoned. Tell me about it."
The hermit was reluctant to say anything more, but after Luo Xi's constant persuasion, he finally gave in.
"Samus, its name is Samus, also known as the Storm Demon of Destruction. It is not a follower of the Four Gods, but a great demon belonging to Chaos."
Samus?
Luo Xi suddenly remembered the Warp Demon he had witnessed on Calth. That Warp entity killed several Extreme Marines as soon as it appeared, and destroyed a Shadow Blade tank in hand-to-hand combat.
If Ventanus had not used the ritual dagger left by the Word Bearers to seize the opportunity to kill the other party, their stronghold would probably have been destroyed by this great demon of the Warp.
Luo Xi still remembered that the great demon had said that a certain god in the subspace had been watching his existence. Now the opportunity had come to make the other party speak clearly.
If Roche was still very afraid of the other party's existence when he was in Cowes, but now, please, times have changed.
The Blackstone Fortress and the Blackstone Altar are a carefully set trap. The whole thing will tend to amplify the power of the Warp at the beginning, making it easier to summon Warp demons.
Once the fish takes the bait and enters the real universe, the entire Blackstone Fortress will suppress the power of the Warp Demon, but will not directly exile the other party back.
Just like a cofferdam built in the sea, when the tide rises and the fishes rush in, the water is released and pumped out, leaving only the lucky ones who are chosen.
Even a being at the level of a great demon would only be able to exert very limited strength in such a completely repressive field.
What's more, waiting for the enemy here are the Primarch Lion Jonson, the Eldar prophet Eldrad Uslan, the director of the think tank Titus Prieto and his think tank troops, the anti-psychic team led by the Untouchable Dulles, and five hundred fully armed Ever-Victorious soldiers.
With such a luxurious lineup, how could you lose?
As long as you come to his territory, dragons will coil there and tigers will lie in their dens. Moreover, according to Uslan's opinion, Samus is not a particularly powerful demon.
The other party is just more active and causing trouble everywhere, so many people know of its existence.
In Roxi's eyes at this moment, Samus was just the soft persimmon who was not strong, knowledgeable, and had been tricked.
What made him even more excited was that Samus was still his "old friend" to some extent, and it was hard not to have a lot of imagination when they met again.
The opened subspace rift became a channel connecting the two worlds. More and more subspace creatures that had never been seen before began to actively leave the Sea of Souls and enter the material world.
In addition to the black cube-tentacle monsters, which were the largest in number, some blood-letting demons that had once appeared in Nuceria crawled out of the cracks.
The Warp Demons were blood red in color, their bent bodies emitted a strong bloody stench, and they held red blades forged with Warp energy in their hands. They screamed and let out horrible war howls, and the followers of the Blood God cheered and came to the real universe.
"Back in Nuceria, thousands of vampires, with an endless thirst for blood, formed a complex and efficient war formation, which put a lot of pressure on the Ultramarines."
Luo Xi commented, but unfortunately the number of these blood-letting vampires that appeared was too small, and they were directly chopped into pieces by the ever-victorious army's swords.
At least this level of demons is no threat to the experienced Ultramarines. After the vampire dies, his body quickly turns to ashes, and his essence has been exiled back to the warp.
"Don't worry, Samus is on his way. I can smell the stench of his greed and indulgence." The hermit comforted him. The demon summoning ritual was not 100% successful. It largely depended on the completeness of the ritual and a little bit of luck.
Everyone was like experienced fishermen, patiently waiting at the open crevice entrance to fish.
The bloodletting vampires, black cube demons, and many strange creatures that looked like naked humans and whose heads shook rapidly and irregularly were the small fry that were attracted.
Until the real big fish is caught, everyone dares not let their guard down for a moment.
Through this meeting, everyone got to experience the natural scenery of the Warp, the countless Warp creatures and Warp demons naturally produced by the mysterious Sea of Souls, and those twisted and mutated monsters were enough to exceed the cognitive limits of most people.
If in other circumstances, a mortal looking directly at a demon would be enough to cause irreparable contamination of the Warp. These unimaginable collections of horror fundamentally originate from the physical universe. The Sea of Souls is like a mirror of the physical universe, where the souls and imaginations of countless creatures gather and evolve.
No one knows whether these collections of fear come purely from their universe. The Sea of Souls holds too many secrets, and they don't even understand them.
After waiting for several hours, the sound that Luo Xi wanted to hear finally appeared from the opened crack.
The familiar whispers of the warp were as harsh as the screams of the dead in the storm. Everyone heard an unfamiliar voice, a repetitive chant that made them feel extremely uneasy:
"Samus. That's the only name you'll ever hear - Samus"
"It means the end and death... Samus... I am Samus. Samus is beside you. Samus is the one who is beside you. Samus will feast on your bones."
"Look out! Samus is here!"
Instead of showing fear of the coming Chaos Demon on their faces, Luo Xi and the others smiled excitedly as if they were relieved.
After waiting for a long time, I finally met you.
The victorious soldiers activated the power fields of their weapons, the psychic think tanks had prepared psychic spells and were ready to cast at any time, and the Lion King Ryan drew out his lion sword, exuding an extremely warlike aura.
The power of psychic energy invaded the communication channel, and the rebellious and arrogant words continued to echo. Finally, a rough demon with a dog-like head, a hunched body and long claws tore open the subspace rift and descended into the real universe with a roar.
Just as it said, Samus is here!
Chapter 306 Samus: Oh, can we reconcile? (Please subscribe)
Samus cheered as she escaped from the Sea of Souls and traveled the long distance to the Macragge System.
Once again, it descended upon the material world.
As one of the most active Chaos Daemons, Samus actively responded to the Great Four's war against the Damned. The damned Damned tried to lead humans to completely get rid of the influence of the Warp, which undoubtedly touched the fundamental bottom line of the entire Warp.
The warp and the real universe are two sides of the same coin. The emotions and thoughts of the creatures in the real universe nourish the existence of the warp. The behavior of the cursed is undoubtedly digging out the roots of the warp.
If humans completely transcend the warp and are no longer affected by it, then the Supreme Heaven, having lost its anchor, will become derailed from this dead universe and its influence will decline rapidly.
To this end, the Four Chaos Gods even paused their eternal great game and reluctantly united to wage war against humanity.
Samus was responding to the call of the Word Bearers and other traitors and marching towards the Solar System, the stronghold of the Damned.
The chief priest of the Word Bearers, Erebus, gathered the power of many demons and controlled them as a mere mortal Astartes.
Erebas' soul is the darkest and sweetest one Samus has ever seen. He seems to be born to be the embodiment of all meanness and shamelessness, betrayal and curse. It can be said that the fall of Warmaster Horus is inextricably linked to Erebas.
It was this Chief Priest of the Word Bearers who stole the cursed Nemesis Blade from the protection of the Interstellar Confederation and gave it to the Chaos-corrupted Governor of Davin, Eugene Tamba.
The wound of Horus, which was cut by the blade of his old enemy, could not heal and he was on the verge of death. The entire Sons of Horus Legion was shrouded in conspiracy and betrayal.
It was he who suggested to the distraught Council of Four Kings that Horus be sent to the Voodoo Temple on Davin, where he claimed the Warmaster could be cured.
Under the guidance of the Hand of Fate, Horus gradually fell and began to accept the power of the Warp. The Four Chaos Gods also bestowed their power on Horus so that he would embark on the path of betrayal against the Emperor.
Having made these contributions, Erebus undoubtedly won the favor and attention of the Four Chaos Gods. Even compared with Lorgar, who thought he was irreplaceable, Erebus was more to the taste of the Warp.
Samus, as an Undivided Chaos Daemon, was subject to the control of Erebus, which made this extremely ancient being unhappy.
Therefore, when it sensed that someone was calling it, Samus temporarily slipped away from the front line. After all, Erebus had countless demons under his command, especially the four gods of chaos, so it would not be noticeable if it was missing.
Anyway, there is no need to take business trips too seriously, so you might as well seize the time to get some private work for yourself and gain some benefits.
Samus had no advantage in staying with those more ancient and powerful beings. The souls and flesh offered by the Word Bearers were only left with the leftovers by others when it was its turn, which made Samus extremely dissatisfied.
The great Samus planned to listen to the desires of his believers and accept sacrifices from mortals. The thought of those sweet and juicy human sacrifices made Samus unable to suppress his inner excitement.
It didn't even realize why it was much easier to open the subspace rift when it came to the real universe from the subspace this time, and there were no real universe creatures acting as carriers.
"My believer, what sacrifice have you prepared for me? Bring it up quickly!"
"I'm horny as hell."
As Samus appeared on the altar, the space here suddenly became cold and gloomy. Luo Xi only felt that the hairs on his exposed arms began to stand up. The whispers of demons lingered in the air. The strong malice came from a big demon, whose greed and arrogance had condensed into substance.
As soon as it appeared, Samus asked for compensation from the being that summoned it. The Warp Demons never do business at a loss, and they will only fulfill their responsibilities when the transaction is reached.
"Here it comes, twist the black stone matrix!"
"Suppress the subspace tide, don't let it escape!"
The hermit shouted, and the Mechanicus Magos around him immediately began to execute the order to reverse the polarity of the Black Stone.
They were already ready, with every processor, every gear, and every energy system debugged to the best condition.
There is no Om Messiah who would not be rapt at this historic moment in humanity's command of etheric power.
Their external thinking processors were running in an overclocked state, the heat emitted was scorching their few flesh and blood organs, but every oil man was chanting loudly.
"From the mediocrity of thought, Om Messiah, save us! From the lies of the pagans, Circuit, protect us!"
"From the wrath of the beast, Iron, protect us! From the temptation of minced meat, Silica, purify us!"
