Warhammer: My Brother Is the Emperor.

Chapter 101 Luthor's Betrayal

Luthor is the adoptive father of the Lion King. He was a young knight when he adopted Leon, who had been living in the forest full of monsters for ten years.

With Luther's help, Leon reintegrated into human society, and established a close father-son relationship with Luther, but the two had very different personalities.

Leon has been a savage for ten years, and his personality is inevitably severe and autistic. He is usually taciturn, superstitious in strategy and tactics, and goes all the way to the dark.

On the other hand, Luther is good at communication, can easily read the minds of his subordinates and enemies, knows how to be flexible, and has many complements with the autistic genius Leon.

As a result, the two became golden partners, and by virtue of their military exploits, they were promoted step by step in the knight order. Among them, Leon was more popular and gradually became the leader of the knight order.

At this time, Luthor felt that his contribution was neglected, and he planted the seeds of jealousy in his heart. He became a stepfather of a space warrior and became a son, and his mentality was further out of balance.

In the original history, Luthor discovered that the enemy brought a nuclear bomb onto the Lion King's ship, and planned to pretend not to see it and kill people with a knife.

Later, he gave up this idea after being persuaded by others, but his relationship with the Lion King deteriorated sharply afterwards, and he was assigned to Caliban as a recruit coach, and finally raised the flag of rebellion.

But now that the history of the expedition has changed, and there is no such thing as a nuclear bomb, Luthor still hides his dissatisfaction in his heart, and Leon still trusts him a lot.

In addition, the variable of Lorgar was added. The battle in the Obscure Star Field brought the legions under the Primarch into contact with each other, making it possible for the corruption to spread.

Lorgar couldn't confuse Leon, so he set his target on Luthor, the second in command of the legion, and used the power of chaos to amplify the jealousy in his heart, easily corrupting him.

The rebels know the power of the Blackstone Fortress. With the Blackstone Fortress, the loyalists will appear anywhere in the galaxy without fear of any subspace storm.

On the other hand, if the Blackstone Fortress is abolished, the Loyalists' retreat can be abolished and they will be trapped in the Istvan Galaxy.

Said thought of this, and immediately ordered Leon: "Hurry up and replace Luther! This is an order, execute it immediately!"

The Lion King didn't know why, and asked, "What's wrong with Luther? Your Royal Highness!"

After all, he is a right-hand man, a comrade-in-arms as close as a father and son, Leon doesn't think there is anything wrong with Luthor.

Said eagerly said: "I don't have time to explain, get him out of the fort immediately, and I'll tell you later!"

Said only ordered Luther to be replaced, and did not ask what to do to Luther. The Lion King hesitated for a while, and then nodded to execute.

Said was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but he forgot that with the EQ of the Lion King, if Luthor really had a conspiracy, he would immediately notice the abnormality.

Sure enough, the Lion King bluntly ordered Luther's troops to join the ground attack, and handed over the Blackstone Fortress to the personal guards to take over. Luther, who had a high emotional intelligence, was immediately alerted.

The ground offensive went smoothly. Although there were a large number of demons and their combat power was tyrannical, they were weakened by the forbidden demon domain of the Blackstone Fortress, and they were easily killed by the space fighters.

In front of Fulgrim, Fenus questioned why his former brother betrayed, and after learning the reason, he began to fight alone. The surrounding seven Primarchs formed a circle, so that they would not be disturbed in the single fight.

The Loyalists had secured the victory, but the Lion King ordered Luther to join the ground battle, obviously not for the ground battle, but for the Blackstone Fortress.

Immediately, Luthor learned that the conspiracy had been exposed, so he decided to act in advance.

He took out the plasma gun and pressed it against the head of the loyalist. After a gunshot, the loyalist was caught off guard and half of his head was burned off by the plasma group.

This shot seemed to be a signal, and Luther's cronies suddenly became violent and backstabbed the nearby comrades in arms. Unprepared, the loyalists suffered heavy losses and were almost wiped out.

However, there were still a small number of them who escaped unharmed, and reported the situation to the Lion King while fighting guerrillas on the Blackstone Fortress.

However, it was too late, Luthor had seized control of the Blackstone Fortress, shut down the magic field, summoned the power of the warp, and corrupted the fortress.

If the corruption is successful, the Blackstone Fortress will break free from the control of the "key" and become a demonic engine, which is the trump card of subspace for human beings.

At this time, the Lion King finally knew why Said was on guard against Luther, and he couldn't help feeling a strong sense of shame in his heart.

There was a traitor in my army, but I didn't know it. Instead, an outsider reminded me that I had to deal with mistakes, which led to irreversible consequences.

Shame then turned to anger, and he immediately ordered all fleets to attack Blackstone Fortress.

At this time, the loyal faction still has a chance to win, and the "key" to control the Blackstone Fortress is in the hands of the Lion King. With his order, the Blackstone Fortress immediately shut down and turned into a giant stone floating in the universe.

Afterwards, he personally led [-] people and led the reserves of all legions to launch a gang-hopping attack on the Blackstone Fortress in an attempt to take back the Blackstone Fortress, questioned the reason for Luthor's rebellion, and then killed him.

Following the order of the Lion King, the fleets of the Nine Legions fired a salvo of artillery and spears like a forest, hitting the unsuspecting Blackstone Fortress, causing a series of explosions.

However, the Blackstone Fortress is a creation of an ancient super civilization. Even without shields, the structure alone can still resist the attacks of light spears and macro cannons.

By the time the bombardment came to fruition, the fortress would have already become a demon engine.

In the fortress, the fallen angels are using the corpses of the loyalists to perform depraved and blasphemous rituals, allowing the power of chaos to spread and accelerate the fortress's corruption.

At this time, Said said to the Lion King through the puppet: "It is best to destroy the fortress now, and not let them fall into the hands of the rebels!"

The lion king suppressed his anger and said: "Please rest assured, Your Royal Highness, I will jump into the gang now, kill Luther before the chaos corrupts, and take back the fortress!"

"If it doesn't work, I won't let the fortress fall into the hands of the rebels! Please trust me again!"

Said sighed: "Okay, you are the frontline commander, you have the final say! But please remember your responsibilities, and don't let anger go to your head!"

The Lion King is serious: "The First Legion is absolutely loyal!"

The reserve teams of each legion took the shark assault boat and boarded the Blackstone Fortress. They were attacked by a large number of demons and fell into an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength.

At this moment, the main force of the legion was fighting fiercely on the ground, unable to return for a while, the Lion King learned of the situation and immediately ordered the dark angel fleet to launch a suicide attack.

A light cruiser accelerated and slammed into the Blackstone Fortress, the void shield generator and the plasma reactor exploded, and the majestic energy finally caused damage to the fortress.

After light cruisers, there are cruisers, battlecruisers, and even battleships. Even if the entire legion is wiped out, the honor of the Lion King will not allow the fortress to fall into the enemy's hands.

The Lion King himself and five hundred people slaughtered in one of the fortresses, cleaning the demons and looking for Luthor.

Finally, after suffering heavy casualties, the Lion King found Luthor and his fallen angels in the control room. Only two hundred of the five hundred were left, the same number as Luthor.

"Why? Luther! Answer me!" The Lion King roared.

Luther said calmly: "I've had enough of you, Leon, remember the motto I taught you?"

The Lion King gritted his teeth and said, "Remember, honor is the second life of a knight! But Luther, you have now turned your back on honor!"

Luther nodded: "Because of you, I have no honor for a long time. By your side, no matter how many achievements I make, I will be dim and lose my honor!"

"So I decided to betray you, maybe I can find a new path!"

The Lion King said coldly: "My biological father told me that honor is not bestowed by others, but a feeling in the heart!"

"With or without me, base jealousy will not allow you to be honored, die!"

After speaking, he swung his sword and rushed towards Luthor!
However, Luthor sneered disdainfully: "Leon, I will have a fight with you, but not now, goodbye!"

After finishing speaking, a subspace crack appeared beside him, sweeping away Luther and the fallen angel.

At the same time, due to the failure of the reserve team's attack, the forces of chaos continued to corrupt the Blackstone Fortress, reaching a critical point...

(History will not be repeated! Please rest assured!)
