Warhammer: Expedition to the Multiverse from 30k

It is said that like father, like son, and this is indeed true. Compared with Magnus, the only difference between the Emperor, the magical giant, is that his power is much greater than Magnus'.

He makes the same mistakes as Magnus, but is strong enough to make up for his mistakes through brute force.

Magnus made a deal with Tzeentch and lost an eye.

The emperor made a deal with the four gods, but he refused to pay his own bill and beat up the four gods who came to collect the debt.

"I would rather do nothing, at least I won't make an irreparable mistake."

The Emperor and Orpersun are two completely different types of people. The former is willing to make mistakes in order to achieve something, while the latter is more cautious and careful about his life.

This was also one of the reasons why they parted ways. Every Eternal was horrified by the Emperor's arrogant ambition.

"That is what I meant, my Lord." Malcador stepped forward and planted his scepter in the ground.

"Since you still refuse to come back, let's part ways here in peace."

"Oir will go find a quiet planet to continue farming. Roshi and I will simply lead the fleet to establish a human government in exile and leave Terra for the rest of the galaxy."

The emperor was stunned. He did not expect that his close comrade-in-arms would threaten him like this.

If Malcador abandons his burden and flees...

The Lord of Mankind could not imagine such consequences, because he simply did not want to deal with this mess.

"Me too." Luo Xi added another stab, and Neos staggered and his face turned worse.

If it was just Orperson's intention, he could still hold out, but if all his comrades left him, then there was no point in fighting.

"Even if you don't absorb the damn power of the warp, you are still the strongest human being." Luo Xi said. He had witnessed the other party's great power that spanned the timeline.

"You should stick to your human identity and defeat Horus with human thinking. If you can only defeat Horus by becoming a god, then all our efforts are ineffective and futile."

"Because the birth of the Dark Lord is enough to plunge humanity into despair that is more terrible than Horus' victory. You just chose a more painful way for humanity to die."

Being enslaved by Horus, and then kept as a source of affection by the gods of the Warp, was only a slightly slower death than being devoured by the Dark Lord.

"This is the biggest trap set for you by the Four Chaos Gods. They want to force you to ascend to become a god."

The Emperor was silent. He understood these principles, but the urgency of Horus' arrival made him instinctively want to strengthen himself.

"Do you know what the biggest difference between you and us is?" Luo Xi suddenly asked.

"Power?" Neos asked in confusion.

"Patience," Malcador replied with an unexpected word.

The Emperor's expression suddenly became colorful, and he spread his hands, indicating everything in the solar system.

"I have spent thousands of years planning this, do you think this is still impatience?"

"Patience is a relative concept, Neos," said Luo Xi.

"A thousand years is a long period of time, but you want to spend a thousand years to complete a long-term plan that should take ten thousand years. This is a manifestation of your lack of patience."

"You are always too anxious. You always say that you don't have time. You slowly become more greedy in this sense of urgency, don't you?"

Olpersson lit another cigarette and placed the burning one crosswise with another intact one.

"When I came here, I saw a parallel timeline in the subspace that intersected with ours. In that timeline, I saw a future of endless darkness and destruction. Everything was gone, even the galaxy and the gods."

"Perhaps that is the future after you give up everything and defeat Horus, but what is the meaning of that future?"

"You cannot defeat Horus, humanity is doomed; you absorb the energy of the warp and become the Dark Lord, humanity is doomed."

“This is a dead end dilemma.”

The burning cigarette was about to spread the flame to another cigarette, but was separated by Orpersund before that. That destroyed future gave this timeline a warning.

"If the future is destined to be destruction, Neos, then let us proudly welcome the destruction as human beings. We will all accompany you to face that damn future."

"It's better to die as a human being than to become a god without blood or tears, isn't it?" Luo Xi said with a smile, "Even if mankind will eventually be destroyed, at least it will be on a road to hope."

"It's just death, that's the simplest thing."

The emperor stood there in a daze, lost in thought, while Orpesson in front of him took off the cross necklace from around his neck.

"This is my wife's legacy and my faith. Now I want to abandon my faith in God and fight the future with the identity and strength of a human being. Do you have the courage to do the same as me?"

"Give up the damn power of the warp, and face Horus, the puppet of the Four Gods, with human strength. There has never been a savior in the world, and people can only rely on themselves!"

Chapter 586: Confrontation in the Subspace

After Orperson, Roche and Malcador's successive bombardments, the Emperor finally sighed and raised his hands.

He surrendered. These few people were the only ones in the galaxy who could force the Lord of Mankind to surrender. Even the Emperor was not afraid of terrifying beings like the Four Gods of the Warp.

A miniature black sun appeared above his head, and countless chaotic air currents continued to converge into it. This was the embodiment of the Emperor's projection in the warp.

"I promise you, I won't cross the line again."

With a whisper, the projection of the Emperor's black sun slowly dissipated, and the chaotic energy also dissipated without a trace.

"I'm going to go solve a small problem first." The emperor said immediately.

Then everyone felt that a great will had entered the Supreme Heaven and collided with another incredible force.

And at this moment in the subspace.

A gigantic grey wolf is swimming in the surging sea of ​​souls. When it opens its huge mouth of the abyss, even the stars in the warp will be swallowed in one gulp.

An aura of ferocity and cunning emanated from the giant beast as it kept circling around, looking for the Emperor's weakness.

Suddenly, the Emperor's cold sun projection in the Warp suddenly shook, and the Warp forces that had been continuously pouring into it suddenly dissipated, as if it had been full and no longer continued to expand itself.

The giant wolf immediately pounced on it, tore off a piece of the sun, and swallowed it into its stomach with a horrible chewing sound.

"You're growing weak, father."

"Why don't you strengthen yourself anymore?"

The Gray Wolf spoke, but the voice that came out was that of Horus Lupercal. The magnetic low voice of the former wolf-god echoed in the Warp, and countless native creatures of the Warp fled outwards like mad.

Some of them are demons in human cognition, and some are just some strange creatures that are generated and wandering in the sea of ​​souls. But at this moment, even the dumbest beings realize that the disaster has come.

A conflict broke out between the two extremely terrifying beings. Even in the vast subspace, only a few people such as the Lord of Brass and the Lord of the Crystal Maze could defeat them.

Even the aftermath of the battle was enough to completely tear apart their essence and sweep them away into the etheric currents, completely disappearing.

"Why did you stop consuming the power of the High Heavens? You lied to everyone in the galaxy and even used lies like [Imperial Truth] to conceal the truth of the warp."

"Now that your conspiracy has been exposed, I have revealed your hypocrisy and made you show your true face. Will those stupid humans no longer provide you with the blessing of the power of faith?"

The giant wolf attacked the Emperor's projection with its abyssal mouth and sharp hoof claws. Every attack carried the residual power of the four gods. The High Heaven responded to its actions, allowing the waves it could stir up to be even greater.

The Emperor was able to counter and even suppress the power of Horus, but this balance was broken when the Lord of Mankind stopped absorbing the energy of the Warp.

The area covered by the cold sun was shrinking. It had lost the support of the subspace and now had to rely solely on its own strength to influence the outside world.

Although this weakening was extremely subtle, in Horus' eyes, it was proof of the Emperor's exhaustion.

This made the Wolf God pounce on him even more arrogantly and excitedly. Even though his body in the material world had not yet arrived in the solar system, they were still fighting in the subspace with spiritual power.

"Didn't you want to abandon all of us and become a god? Why do you have to give up the idea now? My father, why did you lie to us? You could have just told us the truth directly, and maybe I wouldn't oppose you."

Faced with the provocation of the Gray Wolf, the Black Sun simply responded with silence.

It was unknown how much time had passed before the Emperor's power once again reached a balance with Horus's, and he finally spoke in response.

"It is indeed a lie that there is only reason in the world."

"I only hope that lies can keep humans away from the warp. I am just an ordinary mortal. I have never hoped to ascend to godhood and become a clay doll or wooden statue without blood or tears."

Horus was enraged, and he struggled to pounce on the Emperor and bite off his throat.

"You have established the largest empire in the galaxy to exploit all life, including humans and other races. You are the culprit!" The wolf roared.

"Yes, I never deny it, but the purpose of everything is to enable mankind to survive in this dark and chaotic environment." The Emperor replied.

"For my race, I can pay any price."

In the realm of the black sun, countless human souls who sacrificed heroically flashed by. They were all loyal people who gave everything for the continuation of their race.

In order to allow their race to continue for even a second, they were willing to burn themselves to ashes, and then use their ashes and grease to lubricate a part of this giant war machine.

"I am a lonely father. I love my sons but I never say it." said the Emperor.

"You are still lying. You have never loved us. You just use us as the most handy and sharpest tools!"

Horus screamed as if he was greatly stimulated.

"Yes, I am using you as tools, but--" The cold sun released a horrific flare, burning a strand of the wolf's fur, and the hair that was flickering with chaos light suddenly curled up.

"Before I saw you as tools, I had already seen myself as a tool, a tool for humanity."

"Everyone, including me and my son, must make unconditional sacrifices for humanity, and I treat everyone equally."

The Emperor's silent explanation stimulated Horus's remaining emotions. His attack became more brutal and crazy, and he even did not hesitate to make suicidal attacks in exchange for injuries. However, the Emperor just quietly resisted the attack.

Compared to the real universe which still has emotions, the Emperor's projection in the warp has no emotions at all. It is like a ruthless war machine, launching a counterattack on any enemy.

The cold sun whispered, but its target was not the crazy wolf.

The Emperor spoke to the Four Gods behind Horus.

"You deceived this child because you were too weak in front of me. You cannot be my enemy in the real universe. You can only realize your idea by deceiving my son."

"You are afraid that this child will get out of control, but it does not affect the fact that you will fail in the end."

The chaotic waves behind Horus suddenly rolled up as if enraged, and the extremely terrifying Warp storm ravaged the Sea of ​​Souls, tearing all living things into pieces.

However, their statements proved that the emperor's words had indeed hit their sore spot.

Blood and doom, sacrifice and death are repeated endlessly in the warp. Although the rebels have not yet arrived in the solar system, this war has already begun.

In front of everyone's eyes, Neos came back to his senses as if he had suddenly wandered off.

His eyes swept across the faces of Orperson and others one by one, and finally a smile as clear as a spring emerged.

"My friends, the trouble is solved for now, let's talk about something happy."

Luo Xi looked at the somewhat tired Neos, and vaguely realized that something extraordinary seemed to be happening in the subspace.
