Elsa's heart suddenly skipped a beat. She felt that the rude male voice was somewhat familiar. After recalling it carefully in her mind, she immediately reacted.

The man who spoke was the Primarch of the Dark Angels: Lion El'Jonson. She had heard the Primarch's voice before, beside the eerie Dark Angels commander stationed at the Divining Needle Line.

If nothing unexpected happened, the Dark Angels and the Imperial Fists were all dead. Everything was gone, leaving only the Demonic Goddess as the sole survivor.

Elsa suddenly became impatient when she thought about these inhuman dark angels wanting to do something to her brain. She didn't think they would help her sew her skull back together after reading her memories.

The Dark Angels are indeed 100% loyal to the Empire, but they will not be so extravagant as to show mercy to mortals like them.

Elsa always felt that the way the Dark Angels looked at them was no different from the way they looked at the tanks and laser rifles consumed on the battlefield.

They are even more impersonal than the Imperial Fists.

Perhaps it was her strong will to survive that really worked. Elsa finally forced herself to open her eyes and saw the bright but not glaring light of the shadowless lamp.

After instinctively loosening her hands and feet, Elsa was surprised to find that her body seemed to be much better, at least she didn't feel the pain from the fracture.

"They are medical nanorobots. These little guys mend the seams and repair the roads and bridges inside your body, so that your broken body can resume functioning."

"The medicine and hormones will allow your body to recover slowly, and everything will be fine."

It's the man with the nice voice, Aisha thought.

"Oh? Are you awake?"

Seeing that this survivor who might know the intelligence of the world BetaGarmon III had awakened, Roche breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, he didn't want to use a knife on these heroes who fought desperately for the empire and humanity, but if he wanted to obtain their memories completely, it would inevitably cause some harm to the human body.

Elsa's body has recovered with the help of medical nanorobots and biological agents, but her mental state is very poor and she is almost on the verge of collapse.

For a person, the physical state may be very important, but the mental state is more critical. This is why Elsa has been conscious but cannot wake up.

She struggled to stand up, while nervously looking for anything to tell the time. She didn't know how much time had passed since she fainted.

"You still have a lot of tubes inserted into your body for medication. I advise you to just lie still."

Luo Xi gently held down Elsa who was about to struggle, and guessed what she was looking for.

"It has been six standard Terra hours since we salvaged you, and your sisters are resting in their respective rooms."

"You are safe now, so--" Luo Xi moved closer. He felt that the way this woman looked at him was a little strange.

"Tell us what's happening on the planet's surface."

Unlike Roche's gentle voice, Ryan Jonson's eyes were more fierce and intimidating. Aisha didn't even dare to have too much eye contact with this high and mighty Primarch.

Red Ross was scary enough, but in front of Ryan Johnson, he was just a pure and harmless white lotus.

Elsa's heartbeat immediately began to accelerate as she recalled the painful memory of being ejected from the underground fault and the horrifying scene she saw in the cockpit observation window.

Seeing this, Luo Xi immediately controlled and increased the dosage of the sedative. Elsa's body had just recovered, and such a stimulation might cause trouble again.

"Horus is dead, Horus has been assassinated!"

The information from this survivor immediately ignited the atmosphere in the room. Ryan Johnson's eyes suddenly widened, and his whole body released a terrifying aura like a ferocious beast pouncing on its prey.

"Are you sure what you said is true? But, who else can assassinate Horus? My brother Leman Russ is still lying in bed and unable to get up. Who else can he kill?"

Ryan's mental state had already been stretched to the limit, but he had suppressed his instincts with pure rationality. Now that he heard such important intelligence information, he was simply unable to control himself.

If Horus really died inexplicably, then all the plans could be started over again, and they wouldn't need to fight the Battle of Terra. The leader of the rebellion was dead, and the remaining traitors would just fall into chaos and kill each other.

Lion had a clear understanding of this: never underestimate Horus, and never overestimate other members of the Rebellion.

Horus was able to lead this group of monsters to Terra entirely relying on his own abilities and the support of the Warp.

"My Lord, I saw with my own eyes that Horus's side was severely wounded by something, and he fell in a pool of his own blood, and was carried away and protected by his sons."

Aisha tried her best to suppress her emotions and expressed what she had seen and heard in the clearest terms.

"The wound on the waist?" Roxi instantly grasped the key point. That was the location of the wound left by Leman Russ injuring Horus.

"The attack from Leman Russ was not as useless as imagined. Horus looked fine on the outside, but the injury was actually brewing inside his body."

Aisha nodded quickly and continued, "I saw Horus kill all the astropaths and any resistance forces on the planet. He performed a blasphemous and evil ritual and summoned something on the planet."

Roxi's heart suddenly skipped a beat. If she guessed correctly, what Aisha saw was the blasphemous deal reached between Horus and the Warp, and it was also the key to why Horus believed he could completely turn defeat into victory.

But before he could ask Elsa what kind of subspace ritual she had seen, the scanning array of the New Caliban began to scream one after another.

"Ships, so many ships!" a crew member shouted in horror.

"Emperor!"

Chapter 527 Six Thousand Souls of Vengeance

Along with the screams of the crew and the alarm of the battleship's scanning array, the atmosphere in the entire cabin suddenly fell into an extremely strange silence.

An indescribable sense of tension is spreading wildly.

It was like the calm before a volcanic eruption and the retreat before a tsunami, but all of this disappeared in just a second.

Because the intelligent computer is broadcasting the number of enemies appearing on the battlefield through the loudspeaker.

Ryan Johnson and Luo Xi walked quickly towards the sensor, and the voice of the intelligent computer was spreading.

With their naked eyes, they could see that a dark, blank area without any features was expanding rapidly, starting from the planet Beta Garmon III.

Those cosmic objects, warship wreckage and even sunlight disappeared, presenting an incredible phenomenon.

Luo Xi's brain also fell into a state of confusion in an instant. What he saw was neither material nor virtual, but a strange existence formed by the mixture of the two.

In terms of the degree of danger, it is even more exaggerated than the sub-space.

But he had sensed the rise in the unknown type of warp energy and non-matter flux that the battleship's sensors had picked up.

If we must explain all this from a rational perspective, perhaps it can be described as the disintegration of the real universe and the complete collapse of four-dimensional physics.

These strange beings display many characteristics of corruption, deformation, and stagnation. Like the creations of the Warp, they are generally not bound or affected by time.

More importantly, the cosmic environment here is rapidly being replaced by this formless dark void, which is an imperfect infinite sphere, like a new universe that is exploding and being born.

"What the hell is Horus doing? He completely destroyed the veil?" Roxi said in disbelief.

There is a barrier called the Curtain between the real universe and the subspace, which protects the real universe from being invaded by the subspace. After all, most of the time, it is the subspace that invades the real universe.

The evil beings in the Warp must pass through the veil to reach the other side, which is why many Warp demons must rely on rituals and carriers to descend.

And now this dark space is expanding at an unimaginable speed. According to the calculation of the intelligent computer, it will completely devour the entire Beta Garmon Cluster within four months and reach the solar system in six months. At that time, the human home planet may also fall into it.

Horus displayed another unknown method, and Roshi's scalp tingled, because even the authority in his soul was temporarily unable to analyze this thing.

He would rather have a specific enemy like Blackstone Fortress to fight. Even though those enemies might be extremely difficult to deal with, at least there was a definite target.

And now, how can they stop the expansion of this dark void?

Roche hooked his fingers slightly and snapped them lightly, and immediately the New Caliban under his feet responded to his will, even faster than the crew members controlling it personally.

Energy coiled around his fingertips, and the Angel's Tear and Sky Eagle on the other side also began to accumulate energy.

The bows of the three Thundercloud-class planetary battleships lit up with star-like light, and under the control of one will, they were concentrated at a singularity and then released in a superimposed manner.

Energy beams continuously gathered together from above the celestial battleship, transforming into extinction rays powerful enough to destroy an entire planet.

However, such a powerful warship attack quickly weakened and dissipated like a drop in the ocean when it entered the dark void. All that could be seen was the dark waves rolling again and again, but nothing happened.

However, their attack did not seem to be completely ineffective, as the shape of a ship appeared in that unknown area.

As the scanning array gained power, the appearance of the ship changed from a vague ghost ship to a more vivid existence.

"Tell me its identity, the marking code of the battleship's keel, any transponder that can transmit signals?" Ryan's voice began to speed up and become more excited.

+It is impossible to identify the other party's information, it does not have any useful characteristics. +

The New Caliban's intelligent computer was rarely able to come up with an answer. After a quick scan of its database, it did not find any corresponding existence.

As more and more people observed, the ghost ship that seemed to have sailed out of the fog became more solid, and even had some characteristics of a warship that only the human empire had.

+Identification result: More than 95% probability of being a Glorious Queen-class battleship. +

Upon hearing this result, both Ryan and Roche felt a little relieved. Although these glorious warships still meant a lot to the human empire, they were no longer humanity's strongest weapon of war.

The Thundercloud-class planetary battleships have replaced their ecological niches, and in the future, there will be more waves that will beat the former to death on the beach.

"That's a Glorious Queen-class battleship, but why is it bigger than the Glorious Queen?"

In the Empire's fleet, the Indomitable Truth, the Red Tears, and the Hrafinkel are all Queen of Glory-class battleships, but they are obviously much smaller than their counterparts in the Dark Void.

"Judging from the stern components and the plating of the hull, it should be the Spirit of Vengeance. But hasn't the Spirit of Vengeance been driven to a planet on the edge of the galaxy by us?"

Roche threw the question back to Lionel Johnson, who said with absolute certainty that he had commanded the fleet to force Horus's fleet into the Outer Rim, including the Vengeful Spirit, the Endurance and the Emperor's Pride.

The battleship suspected to be the Spirit of Vengeance showed no signs of movement, its engine was turned off, and the Void Shield defense system that should have been raised did not show any signs of existence. It did not even preheat its weapon array.

Even a Glorious Queen that was still under repair and reconstruction at a Martian dock was more lively than this ship. It looked completely dead.

Just when Luo Xi was about to launch another star-destroying cannon attack, the second Queen of Glory-class battleship appeared beside the opponent, just as lifeless and motionless.

Luo Xi hesitated because the detector showed that it was still the Spirit of Vengeance.

What the hell does that mean? Two Vengeful Spirits?

After the second ship came the fourth, and then the eighth. The other side seemed to appear in an exponential increase. There was no sign of stopping this surge in numbers. Thousands of scarlet spots appeared in just a few seconds.

Luo Xi swallowed his saliva immediately, and he seemed to hear Ryan Johnson react in the same way.

The same was true for Jagatai Khan and Sanguinius on the other two celestial battleships. They didn't understand what Horus had done and why so many Vengeful Spirits appeared.

These warships looked non-threatening because they were not arranged in any formation at all, and even the warships themselves were in a completely disordered and messy state.

There is no such concept as up, down, left or right in the universe. It is only due to the influence of the gravity of the galaxy that everyone assumes the ecliptic plane to be the conventional direction, and they also maintain the same direction and angle when reorganizing the fleet.

But these vengeful spirits are different. They are piled up in a mess, like the toys that human babies throw away when they get tired of them.

But even so, it cannot hide one fact—they are all spirits of revenge.

The Spirits of Vengeance were multiplying like a virus. According to the battleship's scanning array, their number had exceeded the terrifying figure of six thousand.
