The Khan suddenly laughed in silence. The Chogorians did drink strong liquor, but to be honest, Fenris's mead was more like the fuel for super heavy tanks. If the tank was filled with this, the machine spirit would probably get drunk immediately.
Only people with a hole in their brains would drink that stuff. It probably can't even be called alcohol.
Although he thought so in his heart, the Khan would not say it to his brother's face and embarrass him. This would only intensify the conflict between the two legions and would be of no use at all.
He just smiled and looked at his wolf brother, his face full of respect and blessing.
If someone really doesn't know him, they might think that Khan really agrees with your point of view, but in Luo Xi's eyes, this is clearly a top-level sarcasm.
It has to be said that Chagatai Khan had an extremely handsome long beard, and his wild and unruly long hair was tied together and casually thrown behind his head.
The lightning lines on his profile and between his eyebrows added a bit of wildness to his heroic face, as well as a bit of primitive beauty.
While strolling in the garden, the Khan pursued the victory and soon killed the king of Rus completely. The Fenris people immediately waved their hands to indicate defeat.
"You are not playing chess seriously, Russ. You are the second Primarch among us to return, and you have been with the Sigillite for a long time. From what I know, the Chancellor is very good at this."
"Why don't you use the skills you learned from the Sigillite?"
"What are you hesitating about, what are you worried about?"
The Khan leaned back slightly in his chair, narrowing his eyes slightly as he stared at his brother.
Originally, he thought that Russ was here to settle a score, so he hosted a banquet for him in an attempt to eliminate the hatred between the two legions.
The White Scars are not afraid of hatred, but they are not obsessed with it either. If there is a chance to turn hostility into friendship, that would be great.
But now it seems that this is not the case, Ruth seems to have deeper ideas.
A whirring sound came from the wolf king's throat, as if a real wild beast was growling threateningly.
He asked Khan a question that he had been thinking about for a long time, a rather sensitive topic.
"Jaghatai, I have always been curious about why you and Horus have such a good relationship. Among us, only Ferrus and Fulgrim can surpass your close relationship, but you did not follow in his footsteps. After all, you have always been loyal to the Empire and the Empire..."
Russ searched his muscle brain for a gentler word to describe it, and Roxie helped him come up with the word.
"There's a sense of distance." Luo Xi smiled.
"The White Scars are different from all the Astartes Legions. They don't seem to be a force under the Empire. Instead, they have a relatively equal cooperative relationship with the Empire."
Chagatai nodded with a slight smile at Luo Xi's evaluation. Dealing with smart people saves time and effort.
Ruth was unusually quiet, as if he wanted to hear how they were evaluated from an objective perspective.
Especially Luo Xi, who has a close relationship with the seal holder, his opinion is very important.
"I have collected information on all the legions and primarchs, but I was troubled when it came to the White Scars Legion and the Khan." Luo Xi said sincerely, and this was indeed what he thought in his heart.
"I can't find much information about Khan. If the data didn't show that the Empire had 18 Primarchs, I would have really thought that the Empire had only 17 Primarchs. Khan seems to have a skill that always makes people unaware of his existence."
"He can make himself invisible, unlike Corax, who is physically invisible. He is invisible in the crowd."
Chagatai Khan couldn't help but stroke his beard and burst into laughter.
“Interesting review.”
"Later, I looked for more information in detail and found something interesting."
Luo Xi took a glass of milk wine from the table and said while drinking, "The low presence of the White Scars Legion and the Primarch comes from their alienated attitude. However, it is not the Empire that alienated the Khan, but the Khan that alienated the Empire."
"According to my understanding, when the Emperor first found Chagatai Khan, his attitude was actually quite good, even flattering. This treatment was completely different from that of Angron and Conrad."
At this moment, even Russ couldn't help laughing. He recalled the scene when the Allfather first came to Fenris. At that time, he had already ascended the throne as king, but one day he suddenly met a mysterious man shrouded in a burqa.
He fought with Quanfather three times and won two of them. Even the emperor couldn't eat and drink as much as him.
"Me!" Ruth stood up, holding his head high with pride, "I won two games against Allfather! Everyone saw it!"
"The reason you were able to defeat the emperor is because you had eaten all the wine and meat, isn't it? How can he defeat you if he has nothing left?" Luo Xi choked him.
"No wonder he knocked you down with one punch. You were really cheating."
Ruth's expression didn't change at all. So what? He won anyway.
Having defeated the Emperor twice, this matter can be boasted about until he dies on the battlefield.
"The reason why Khan distanced himself from the Empire is because he saw it too clearly. He realized that the Empire and the Emperor were not good things, so he kept his distance."
Chagatai stood up from his seat and applauded Roshi's opinion.
The Chogoris didn't mind Roche's comments at all, and he even took the initiative to add his opinions.
"That's right, it is true." Khan affirmed.
"After I conquered Chogoris and sat on the throne of the Supreme Ruler, I realized that I actually hated rulers. Fixed rule would only make society solidified and corrupt. I didn't want to be such a person. The Emperor was undoubtedly the greatest ruler in the entire galaxy."
"When that guy came before me, shining with golden light and emitting spiritual energy that was enough to make my Storm Prophet tremble, do you know what he said to me?"
The Khan's face was full of sarcasm and even ridicule. He had never been blindly loyal to the emperor.
"The Emperor told me, Chagatai, my son, you must believe in the Imperial Truth and not get involved in those superstitious things. Reason is everything."
Imperial Truth? What the hell is this big golden thing in front of me?
"I knew from the beginning that this was an absolute lie. The Emperor used lies to deceive everyone. Even if the starting point of this lie was good, it was still a lie."
Even Russ could not refute it, because what Chagatai said was indeed right, but he was dissatisfied with Chagatai's contemptuous attitude.
No matter how much embellishment there is, a lie is still a lie. Now everyone has seen the true appearance of the subspace. Those vicious subspace demons are always coveting the real universe. These are things beyond the truth of the empire.
"It is precisely because of their deception and lies that I cannot trust this Empire. As for me, Horus and Magnus, we are indeed close brothers, but they chose the damned Chaos."
Khan closed his eyes to hide his rising and falling emotions.
"I don't like the Empire, nor do I like the Emperor. They are full of falsehood and ignorance, and neither of them is a good thing. But I dislike Chaos even more. Chaos and the Warp are not even a thing at all."
"The Emperor does not look like a ruler, and Chaos does not look like a human being."
"If I have to choose between two rotten fruits, I choose the Empire."
Although Chagatai's words were extremely vicious, they were indeed incisive and to the point, and even Ruth thought that he was right.
The Fenrisian grinned, then overturned the decided regicide chess piece to the ground.
He simply grabbed the king from the Khan's desk and crushed him into powder in his hands.
"You are a sober person, Chagatai, but I am different."
There was a fierce light and a hint of determination in Ruth's eyes.
"I am a barbarian, and barbarians are best at being unreasonable."
Chapter 374: Chagatai Khan is tall and tough (seeking subscription)
"I'm a barbarian, and barbarians are best at being unreasonable!"
The Wolf King of Fenris forcefully overturned the game of regicide, which was already decided to be a failure. Since he could not defeat his opponent within the game, he would jump out of the game and win in his own way.
This may be shameless and may be criticized, but it is indeed a way.
In this universe, problems are ultimately solved with fists. If the fists are big enough, then there are really no problems in the world in many cases.
After hearing Ruth's self-evaluation, both Khan and Luo Xi showed a faint smile at the corners of their mouths.
Russ is actually not good at hiding and disguising himself, because a real barbarian would never say that he is a barbarian.
On the contrary, a true barbarian will conceal his true nature, will constantly imitate civilized people, and will put himself in knight's plate armor... I am definitely not talking about Lion Jonson here.
Luo Xi glanced at the Khan's expression. The White Scarred Khan clearly had an expression that said, "You can lie to your brothers, but don't really lie to yourself."
"Khan, hypothetically, if Horus had invited you to overthrow the Emperor's tyranny and lies, would you have chosen to rebel with him?" Roxi asked Chagatai.
The Lord of the White Scars is a very rational man. Among the many Primarchs, only Chagatai Khan can talk about such topics. If it were any other Primarch, they would have drawn their swords long ago.
Loyalty is a very serious topic. For the vast majority of people in the empire, questioning loyalty is undoubtedly denying everything.
If it was Ryan Jonson sitting here, he would have taken out his lion sword and chopped everyone into pieces.
"In fact, both the Loyalists and the Rebels doubted your position, and when you chose to be loyal to the Emperor, both sides were surprised by you."
"Horus was horrified that you did not follow his footsteps, and Rogal Dorn was puzzled that you remained loyal to the Empire."
Luo Xi didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point to discuss the matter.
Chagatai Khan looked serious, but did not interrupt immediately. Instead, he thought about this possibility carefully.
"I must say that before Horus was possessed by the Four Gods, he was indeed the strongest among us. He was a warm sun in winter, doing his best to warm his many brothers, even though his warmth might be a poor imitation of the Emperor, and he also had his own selfish desires and weaknesses." Khan couldn't help but sigh when he mentioned Horus.
The Wolf God of the past was indeed a very good person, and no Primarch could deny this.
"Assuming that scenario really happens, I can only say that if Horus needs me, then I will fight. I believe he is right. What he does must be to eradicate those cysts in the Empire. The White Scars will fight for him."
"Horus must have started out with the intention of clearing out the emperor's entourage, and I will naturally follow him."
The Khan's attitude was sincere, and Roche could understand what he meant. If Horus's purpose was to support the empire and the purpose of his uprising was to purge the court, then the Fifth Legion would surely lead the charge.
The Khan of Chogoris had had enough of the ignorance and barbarity of the Empire, but if Horus had not been involved in the Warp, Jaghatai Khan would not have abandoned him.
"You are sincere, brother." Leman Russ muttered somewhat dissatisfiedly. He felt that among the three people present, only his loyalty was unshakable.
The Khan was fighting with them on Terra now only because the Empire wasn't that bad by comparison.
The corrupt empire is now humanity's last hope.
"During the Prospero period, my legion had several internal conflicts during this rebellion. I was not in my fleet at the time, and my commanders, Haske Khan and Tuyuhun Khan, attempted a coup. They wanted to force me to join Horus. If it weren't for Shiban Khan's efforts, I'm afraid their conspiracy would have succeeded."
The Khan was as upright as he always appeared to be, and he was not even afraid to talk about the past rebellion within his legion in front of Leman Russ and Roche.
For other legions, this is a topic that is not allowed to be discussed and is considered a shame for the legion, but in the eyes of Chagatai Khan, avoiding the problem is actually a form of evasion.
Only by facing the problem can we solve it. If the rotten scar is sutured too early, it will only lead to greater consequences.
The Horus faction actually accounts for a considerable number of the White Scars Legion, perhaps even as much as half.
On the one hand, before Jagatai returned to the Legion, the Star Hunters of the Fifth Legion basically acted together with Horus, and they had a very close relationship with the Luna Wolves.
Secondly, many of the Khan's descendants were dissatisfied with the Emperor's indifference to the White Scars, and some of their reasons for launching a rebellion even included wanting to fight for the rights and status that their genetic father deserved.
"I understand my sons' thoughts, but they misjudged me. I don't care about these things. Even the identity of the Primarch of the Empire is just a constraint for me. If I have a choice, I would rather lead my sons to launch an eternal expedition to the end of the universe."
"Why are they so obsessed with power? The endless sea of stars, even the Milky Way is just a drop in the ocean, don't they want to take a look?"
Chagatai Khan sighed and said that whether loyal or rebellious in his legion, their starting point was actually for him, their father.
