I'm a magnetic field madman

Leon remained expressionless; he knew he had committed an act akin to the treasonous rebellion of Horus.

But he has no regrets and feels nothing at all.

Since no sacrifice was too great to be accepted, the destruction of the Solar Fleet was not an unacceptable sacrifice either.

Leon only hoped that the high lords on Terra would come to their senses in the face of this blow, and not let their stupidity continue to destroy their minds, and would surrender to him immediately.

The Lion King closed his eyes, and he seemed to hear countless wails and screams in this vast universe... but the Lion King's heart remained unmoved, only cold and resolute.

There will never be a second Caliban, because this time, he will sweep away all obstacles with unstoppable power to achieve humanity's greatest destiny.

Those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles!

Let's do something big!

136. Orbital Bombing Terra

"Hehehe, it's all over so quickly, Magnus, your little scheme has failed."

"You're such a master of failure! How are you feeling now? How are you feeling?!"

Carlos's phantom once again haunted Magnus, unleashing a blatant mockery at the Crimson King's gaping maw.

The Crimson King was indeed too busy to argue with the two-headed bird... after all, Ryan's reaction and what he did had exceeded Magnus's expectations.

"How is that possible... Where did he get such a fleet from?"

Magnus's single eye stared intently at the twenty-two massive Eclipse-class Star Destroyers... then he chanted blasphemous chaotic incantations, plunging into the heavens to divine the answers he desired.

The answer—there is no answer.

It is incredible that divination from the heavens yielded no answer.

Either a more powerful force is protecting the past and future of these warships, or it has already exceeded the vision of the Lord of Change.

But in any case, Magnus had to accept a terrible situation.

His plan failed, and Leon swept away the Solar Navy with unstoppable force... This means that Magnus will not only fail to be the fisherman, but he will probably be Leon's next prey!

I made a blunder—what should I do? What should I do?

A more prudent approach would be for Magnus to immediately retreat back to Wizarding Planet, given his already substantial gains.

Even if he were to retreat back into the subspace now, he could still be considered the biggest winner in this attempt to sow discord.

But would Magnus be so willing to accept this?

If it's impossible, then it's absolutely impossible!

"Cuck!!"

Magnus roared and swung his battle blade, slaying all the Chaos Wizards around him!

Amidst the blood spurting from those hundreds of wizards, he used his incantation to extract their wailing souls and directly cast them into the grand spell he had prepared!

Failure? How could that be? Magnus would never accept such an outcome!

Ten thousand years had passed. This was the first time he had seen Terra's nauseating lights since the Horus Rebellion, and perhaps the last time he would ever see them again, when the Emperor was not around!

How could he possibly give up this opportunity? Absolutely not, he absolutely couldn't!!

This might be his only chance in this life to destroy Terra and take revenge on that damned dried-up corpse!

Using his Word of Power, Magnus extracted the souls of all the Chaos Wizards around him, his hands simultaneously radiating a blasphemous crimson light... while his eyes shot out an even more dazzling cold light as he stared at the golden planet!

Leon, don't think you've won! Even if I can't completely destroy Terra this time, I'll make sure you're stuck in the filth of that disgusting city!

Without hesitation, Magnus activated the Chaos Spell... and he was lucky, or rather, he timed the High Lords' pig-nose move perfectly.

The souls of the hundreds of millions of Terrans who perished were drawn in by the great spell... instantly blowing an extremely high concentration of chaotic winds into Terra, which lacked the Emperor's protection!

Because it doesn't need to be anchored to any particular chaotic god, but merely to open a rift between the mortal world and the supreme heavens...

Magnus's great spell caused a massive invasion of chaos to occur on Terra.

"Come on, Leon! Let me see how you, all by yourself, can end all this disaster!!"

Magnus roared at the massive Indomitable Truth, as if the lion he was provoking was right before his eyes...

"Warship severely damaged...damage percentage...machine spirit dormant."

After a bout of dizziness, Admiral Mereday covered his bleeding forehead and stood up, leaning on the command platform. The sounds he heard were very unreal due to tinnitus.

But those illusory voices all pointed to a terrible, horrifying reality.

With bloodshot eyes, Mereday stared intently at the screen in front of her, which showed that her allies were almost completely wiped out...

The countless bright red LOSE marks on it were like whips lashing his face!

He failed, he failed miserably!

The emperor's most sacred and powerful army was wiped out by these damned traitors in the blink of an eye.

Although the headquarters and main force of the Solar Fleet are still on Mars and have not yet arrived in the skies above Terra to meet the enemy, his defeat is undeniable!

He looked ahead and saw, in the absence of restored communications, twenty-two colossal warships, darker than the night itself, standing before the shattered bridge, its surface crackling with sparks of ion.

These monsters wiped out Mereday's proud army in an instant, turning his glory and future into fireworks blooming in the universe.

They have failed; they have no hope of victory left.

Even more tragically, they didn't even know if the other party was truly an enemy threatening Terra, threatening the Emperor.

Mereday's lips were dry and sore, and the mournful cries were no longer in his ears.

He straightened his admiral's uniform—tearing away his identity as a high lord and abandoning that damned political struggle, he now knew that there was only one thing he should do.

"We are the last barrier against the enemy."

Mereday spoke in her last, weak, yet resolute voice…

"I swear to let the Emperor's Light shine on the stars. I will fulfill my duty and keep my oath. The Light of Rebellion shall not set foot in Holy Terra!"

"Let us defend our last glory and dignity, unleash the Void Shield with all our might, for the God Emperor, charge!"

Mereda's order was relayed throughout the entire warship, and everyone on board the Imperial Icon followed the admiral's command...

For the Empire, for the God Emperor, for humanity, for their last dignity as the Solar Fleet!

The Imperial Icon deployed all its void shields and started its engines at full power...

The shattered warship slammed into the Indomitable Truth in front of it like a blade!

This was a farcical suicide, a satirical joke that was anything but funny. Two factions, loyal to the empire, turned on each other on the imperial throne, all because of a simple conspiracy!

No, this is not surprising. Didn't something like this already happen during the Great Expedition?

And perhaps countless political problems are involved... But in essence, this infighting between loyalists will not benefit the empire at all... If it does, it is only the satisfied smirk of the evil god in the warp.

The Lion King understood all of this, but he would still do it without any regrets.

He frankly admitted that he couldn't do it perfectly.

He could not surrender, could not allow his mothership to be captured... and would certainly not allow his fate to be handed over to Magnus, who was manipulating everything behind the scenes.

He distrusted the current empire, the high lords, and even the emperor.

His power cannot now return to Terra, so the Lion King must take on the responsibility of making a decision.

Whether it's more sacrifice or more destruction.

It was a farcical conflict, but Leon had neither the time nor the inclination to clear up the so-called misunderstanding.

Faced with the charging Imperial Icon, the Lion King silently left his flagship. Facing the last pride of the charging Solar Navy, he unhesitatingly unleashed the Lion King Sword!

I'm sorry, I can't be perfect. But I have no regrets about what I did, because it was the right thing to do!

"May your souls return to the Golden Throne."

The Lion King spoke in a low voice, then fully activated his magnetic field power, releasing 950,000 units of power at once, making the Lion King Sword in his right hand shine brightly.

Then, wave it downwards.

A powerful magnetic field, accompanied by a roar that resounded throughout the universe, propelled it forward at speeds exceeding that of light.

The Imperial Icon, enveloped by the remaining Void Shield, came to a halt... and then, starting from the middle section at the very front, the entire warship was sliced ​​in two by this powerful blow.

boom!!

Two bursts of fire became the last glimmer of glory left by this Solar Navy ship in the universe. Lion King watched the light dissipate until it was completely extinguished, and then returned to his Indomitable Truth.

"go ahead!"

Without any emotion, he gave the order to continue. The warship continued forward, passing the annihilated Solar Navy... and arrived above Terra, which was protected by the planetary void shield and countless star fortresses.

He looked down at the world he had arrived in ten thousand years ago, a world he had never been able to return to. In his vision, he seemed to see Saint Gilles, who had died at the hands of Horus.

This time, he was the first of all his brothers to arrive in Terra. He wasn't late again, but he had to shoulder a huge responsibility—

Looking down from orbit, Terra's colors appear incredibly eerie. The once sacred golden planet is now replaced by four blasphemous colors that fill its surface!

The chaotic winds blowing in from the warp rifts spread to every corner of Terra along with the fluttering star torches...

Every moment, people fall into chaos and corruption; every moment, unborn beings descend from the warp.

"What blasphemy..."

Countless Astartes and accompanying chaplains trembled as they spoke, their initial outcry at Leon's order to annihilate the Solar Fleet now replaced by a shock at the sight of Holy Terra in its current state—

All they could say was, "Well played!"

If this were happening on any other planet in the Empire... it would surely have been met with a merciless extermination order from the judges.

But this is Terra, and no matter how terrible the corruption is, it must not be destroyed!

But none of the four gods would let such a good opportunity pass by. They might already know about the Cold Sun's plan and intend to bring everything to an even worse situation here.

Leon let out a long breath, closed his eyes, and tried to activate his Primarchic nature to propel the Unyielding Truth directly to Terra.

But he couldn't do it.

It wasn't due to interference from the Void Shield, but rather because of the planet's massively increasing magnetic field rotation—

A large number of the unborn are merging with those who possess magnetic field abilities...

Hundreds of magnetic field demons with Primarch-level combat capabilities are brewing in those destroyed hive cities!

Was Magnus the mastermind behind all of this? No, or rather, not just him. The biggest instigators were the high lords who ordered the deployment of weapons of mass destruction in an attempt to suppress the Terra rebellion!

They killed billions of Necromancers, and the souls of these billions of Necromancers were used by Magnus as sacrifices to tear open the warp rift!

What's even more terrifying is that they successfully "screened" out qualified individuals with strong magnetic fields from among these billions of people!

What doesn't kill them only makes them stronger; their physical bodies attract the great demons to directly merge with them.

These idiots are responsible for the creation of hundreds of Primarch-level Enchanted Warriors in Terra today!

These Primarch-level enchanted warriors are launching a frenzied attack on every key passage of Terra, and most importantly—they are attempting to besiege the Terra Palace!

These idiots didn't act decisively when they should have wiped out Terra's population, but instead slaughtered them during the most chaotic time.

These stupid pigs, used to manipulating power, have no idea how counterintuitive and anti-civilizational the power of magnetic fields is!

Upon realizing this, the lion king's expression twisted with rage!

Quack, I'm going to scatter you all!!

The lion king quickly calmed down; anger couldn't change anything.

He knew he had to issue a decisive order once again to do the right thing—

Taking a deep breath, the Lion King issued another, utterly treasonous command in a chilling voice.

"Target Terra... Initiate orbital bombardment!"

Magnus, who was eavesdropping, twitched his lips slightly and muttered involuntarily...

"You are a bit too extreme..."

137. The plan to destroy Terra was initiated by....

Just how important is Terra to the human empire?

He is the cradle of humanity, the throne world of the Empire, the location of the Star Torch, the residence of the High Lords, and the spiritual totem of the Empire!
