Warhammer: Expedition to the Multiverse from 30k

Luo Xi was wearing a special power armor. Although the environment of Daven Star had been transformed by the colonists in the distant past, no one knew whether this seemingly lifeless place would have any unexpected dangers.

The power backpack behind Luo Xi roared, and he could feel the touch of the ground of Daven Star. Everything here seemed to be no different from other death planets.

Except for the temple in front of us.

This temple called Delphos is a giant octagonal building. If you look down from space, the whole thing looks like a blood-red eight-pointed star imprinted on the surface of the planet.

From a symbolic point of view, the eight-pointed star is a symbol with special significance. The Word Bearers used the eight-pointed star extensively in the Battle of Calth.

"The scanning array shows that this temple is hundreds of meters high. Those huge red stones were excavated purely by humans and piled up to form the main body of the temple."

It is purely man-made. No one knows how many Devins died to build this magnificent temple. Those blood-red stones may even be made of the blood of Devins.

The drone bee compiles every centimeter of nearby land into data and uploads it to the intelligent brain system in space, where a complete holographic projection is being generated.

There is a tall tower at each corner of the octagonal temple, and in the center of the octagon is a huge dome building. At this moment, the tops of the two spires have collapsed, and the magnificent dome has cracked under the movement of geological structures.

Ashes or dust left after something burned out covered the entire square, and the magnificent dome cast a deep darkness, making it impossible to see what was inside.

In addition, there are tall pillars symmetrically arranged on both sides of the stairs, with countless exquisite snake sculptures entwined on the stone pillars. Those lifelike giant snakes gaze deeply at the humans who are gathering.

"Let us put an end to this fate," said Sanguinius, leading the way towards the huge rusty iron gate of the temple.

You can see exquisite snake patterns on the iron gate. Two giant snakes are entwined around a big tree, forming a special structure similar to the genetic double helix. The gate on the left is open, and the joints are damaged, which shows that someone has been here before.

Everyone knows who that person is, the former wolf-shepherd god, the warmaster of the empire, and now the leader of the rebellion, Horus Lupercal.

Behind the iron gate are countless neatly arranged braziers and candlesticks, but the lights that once burned day and night have been extinguished, leaving only ashes after all is quiet.

"It seems that there is no difference between the inside and outside of this temple. Everything is dead and there are ashes everywhere. Who would have known that the war that Horus started that ignited the entire galaxy started from here."

"A tiny planet in a corner of the Milky Way, an extremely tiny temple of heresy, could actually cause the Wolf God to fall here."

Luo Xi sighed and said that from a symbolic perspective, this temple is connected to the trillions of dead lives in the galaxy. Every brick and tile here is condensed with endless sin and blood.

The skull planet above their heads and the deserted and dilapidated temple seemed to indicate that everything had disappeared.

Yes, according to intelligence, at least before Horus came here, there was a prosperous primitive civilization on the planet Daven. This temple decayed into this state in just a few years.

Horus was assassinated in the year 31 of the 004st millennium, and Roche and his companions arrived here in the year 31 of the 010st millennium. In just six years, this place has reached a state that would not have occurred even if it had decayed for thousands of years.

This was undoubtedly the work of the Warp, the corruption of Horus bringing unknown effects.

Luo Xi kicked Veronica's leg. Conrad Koz had been silent since he landed on the surface. It was obvious that this guy was up to something bad again.

Of course, a mortal body could not cause any harm to Iron Man, but Veronica received the command, and its leg module suddenly contracted and tightened, and immediately Coze's screams rang out through the loudspeaker.

"I don't know anything. I can't see anything here. This is a kind of intersection of fate. The future is nothing here."

"Sanguinius knows I am not lying, and he certainly cannot see it."

Curze said as he inhaled, he felt his leg being strangled, although it was only a minor injury for the Primarch, it did not mean that he would have no reaction.

Everyone was a little disappointed and simply ignored the prisoner.

The temple seemed to have experienced the baptism of time for tens of millions of years. The doors of the rooms had all decayed, and the few remaining murals showed a glimpse of the past. The remaining marks seemed to be whispering, and Luo Xi vaguely felt that the remaining portraits seemed to have eyes moving.

Everything here... is a little bit evil.

The Space Marines from the Ever-Victorious Army, the Sanguine Guard, and the Deathwing Company that followed searched every corner of the temple, but they only found ashes on the ground and dull footsteps everywhere, but did not find anything useful.

Sanguinius closed his eyes, and suddenly, he seemed to see something.

"Over there, follow me."

The Archangel came to the very center of Delphos, facing the dome of the sky above, but the Space Marines had already searched it and there was nothing there.

Yet when Sanguinius reached out his hand, he encountered a door that was not there.

This invisible door is located in the void, like a mirror in a mirror, a lake in a reflection. It alternates between existence and non-existence, but the archangel has discovered traces of its existence.

Luo Xi and others followed Sanguinius into this non-existent room. It was an altar with a giant black stone slab placed in the middle. On its surface, there seemed to be dirt from dried blood.

In a trance, everyone saw an illusion. A once great man was carried to the center of the altar by his descendants. He was bleeding continuously, and the wounds left by the enemy's blade could not heal at all until some beings performed a blasphemous ritual on him.

This is the place where Horus suffered and also the turning point of his fate. It was here that the wolf-shepherd god Horus died, and the leader of rebellion Horus was reborn here.

Chapter 322: The Death of Sanguinius

"We have come to the place where Horus fell, but it is too late." The archangel walked forward and touched the dried bloodstains on the altar stone.

He could imagine that Horus had been unconscious here, the demigod's body unable to heal the wounds of his old enemy's blade, the wolf-god bleeding profusely and approaching death, and perhaps Horus was still calling for his father in his coma.

However, Horus did not respond, his life was slipping away, and in desperation they chose to believe in this heretical voodoo temple.

Everyone felt bad. Although they hated the harm caused by Horus, they had to admit that Horus might also be one of the victims.

Horus once shone like the sun, warming his brothers. He may have his own selfishness and weaknesses, but this made him more like a human being than a demigod.

"So what, Sanguinius? Horus fell here, and we have nothing going on here at all. There is nothing here."

"If you are right, then we have come here with all the trouble just to be tested like Horus?"

"But there is no test, nothing. What happened in the past has already happened. No one can undo what happened in the past, and we have come to nothing!"

The lion king roared angrily, and his sanity, which had been online for a short time, began to decline again.

"It's too clean here, nothing is left. I think this is actually a transitional cover-up," Luo Xi analyzed.

Even in a place corrupted by Chaos, there should be some strange creatures from the subspace, right? But here, everything is dead silent. Chaos is never dead silent, it is a state of confusion, so everything here is carefully designed by some existence.

It was convincing the Primarchs that there was nothing here.

Sanguinius was confused. Could it be that his prophecy and what he saw were really wrong?

He came to Davin according to the prophecy in order to make the things in the prophecy happen in order. He will return to Terra, have a decisive battle with his father and Horus, and meet his destined death.

So if all this is fake, does that mean he can rewrite his destiny?

No one, not even Sanguinius, wants to die, except that madman Conrad.

On this planet, he might be able to reverse his fate.

Sanguinius saw the tangled threads of fate, and he used his psychic prophetic abilities to the maximum, doing his best to untie the knots of fate.

The archangel cried out loudly, fighting against his damn fate.

"The future isn't predetermined—and I can change it!"

Along with Sanguinius's firm call, a hazy light appeared in the room. The light began to spread and formed an arc-shaped light gate.

The archangel walked into the glowing portal with determination, and he saw what had always attracted him - the possibility of changing the future.

"This is a trap! Don't go! Sanguinius!" Lion and Guilliman shouted angrily, but Sanguinius walked in resolutely and disappeared in front of everyone.

Roche was about to take a few steps back to keep his distance, but Curze, who had been silent all the time, suddenly grabbed Roche's power armor, rolled and jumped forward, and followed Sanguinius into the portal.

The light gate seemed to begin to lose its strength after passing three people, and became illusory and transparent. Guilliman's outstretched right hand was just a little bit away from grabbing Roche, but he was a step too late.

"Crazy, all crazy, damn it!" Guilliman was almost mad. He didn't care that Sanguinius walked into the portal, but Roche followed him in!

The Holy Blood Guards outside the room rushed into the room like crazy, but they did not see their own Primarch.

However, the portal has been closed and no one can enter again.

……

Midnight Haunter's movements were extremely crude. He almost grabbed Roxie's neck and lifted him in directly. Veronica was on standby, and Conrad's physical strength was obviously enough to drive the Iron Man.

Luo Xi, who finally reacted, immediately ordered Veronica to lock Koz's movements, and the Midnight Haunter, who suddenly exploded, lost his ability to move again.

"Why did you come to us here? Your previous change was just a disguise, Conrad."

Roche questioned Midnight Haunter. He and Guilliman were forced to separate and now they didn't know where they were taken by the portal.

This time, he didn't even bring his personal bodyguard Sharokin with him. The only person beside him was the Midnight Haunter who had gone mad again.

"No." Conrad's voice was still audible, but his body could no longer move.

"I just want to see if Sanguinius can rewrite his own destiny. If he can escape the death of his own orders, this is very important to me."

There was a hint of playfulness and laughter in Midnight Haunter's voice. "As for you, I just did it for the sake of convenience. Remember what I told you on the ship? Sanguinius will cause a big disturbance on this planet. Since I have already spoiled the future for you, I will naturally take you to see what happens next."

"There are potential unknown enemies here. For safety reasons, you'd better untie Veronica's little sweetheart. Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."

Luo Xi was a little confused about whether he was being deceived, because the reason Conrad gave was somewhat neurotic.

This damn bastard just stayed in this damn place without caring about anything just to see if the future could be changed.

But now that things have come to this, he can only release Veronica from her confinement order.

"But where is Sanguinius?" Luo Xi looked around. He clearly came in with Sanguinius, but now there was no one in front of him except Conrad.

In fact, Roche didn't know what had happened. Sanguinius seemed to have received the mission index and brought him, Guilliman and Lion to Davin. Then he disappeared mysteriously, which made people feel a little suspicious.

Because it sounds very conspiratorial and there is ill intention in the air.

Luo Xi and Koz began to explore the place where they were. It seemed to be the hall of a battleship. Judging from the size, it should be a Glorious Queen-class battleship.

The hall was filled with the smell of blood and corruption. Various tanned human skins were hung on the walls, and broken human bones were everywhere, forming some kind of horrific decoration.

The stench of burning flesh and blood could be smelled in the nose. There seemed to be a huge sound of weapons colliding in the warship. The clashing of metal and iron made the hair stand on end.

"This is the Spirit of Vengeance, Horus' flagship. I have visited here before." Curze's voice sounded.

"Horus was still a normal person at that time."

Led by this knowledgeable Primarch, the two rushed towards the throne room on the battleship. If Sanguinius was on the same ship as them, then the probability of finding each other in the throne room would be the greatest.

At the main entrance to the throne room, a huge Eye of Horus adorned the wall, as if a real eye was watching them.

However, when Conrad drove Veronica and punched open the door of the throne room, they saw a horrifying scene.

The Archangel holding the Scarlet Sword was fighting with a bald Primarch enemy, who was much larger than Sanguinius. The giant Terminator armor surrounded by black power seemed as tall as a knight. The two attacked, evaded and counterattacked in just a few breaths, fighting at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

Only Curze could see the details. He saw the enemy's terrifying power claws cruelly pierce the archangel's breastplate and lift him up high. Sanguinius's scarlet sword fell to the ground and blood dripped down his wings.

Sanguinius was dead, easily slaughtered by Horus.

Luo Xi was completely stunned at this moment. What on earth had happened? Why did the leader of the rebellion who was now besieging Terra appear here? Did the portal teleport them to Terra?

This is fucking wrong!
