Warhammer: My Brother Is the Emperor.

Chapter 177 Abaddon Eyeing Blackstone Fortress

Abaddon was at it again.

Just after the Tyrannian War ended, Abaddon attacked a colony ship in the Pacific Starfield, massacring 999 passengers and sparing the others.

Among them, the victims were all members of the State Church, and Saeed couldn't help but think of the eighth Black Crusade in the original history.

At that time, Abaddon slaughtered the pilgrimage ship Sacred Way, and also slaughtered 99 crew members. After a specific pattern of slaughter, he presented a terrifying mathematical formula to please Tzeentch.

As for what the formula is, Said does not know, but he understands that Abaddon must not be allowed to succeed.

Memories churned in his mind, and Said recalled the remaining few ceremonies, and couldn't help wondering: "Will Abaddon still slaughter like history at this time?"

Originally, in history, two worlds were attacked. If it really happened according to history, they could be deployed in advance to ambush Abaddon.

However, history is changing, and the formula of the ever-changing devil is also changing. Originally, he robbed the pilgrimage ship, but now he robs the colonial ship, which shows that the way to realize the ceremony is not static.

"But there must be something in common among them. For example, Tiska has twenty crater cities, and Abaddon destroyed eight of them with ice... This is very intriguing!"

In the palace, Said drank the tea made by the nuns and thought hard. He used all the mathematics sages and a large number of thinker engines in the empire to cooperate with his own powerful computing power to carry out calculations.

But at this time, the emperor warned: "Sayyid, don't forget it, you will fall into Tzeentch's trap, and cracking is also part of the formula"

Said was startled suddenly, remembering that in history, the empire organized thousands of Mathematicians to teach Mathematics in an attempt to decipher Abaddon's killing formula and predict the killing action.

However, all the mathematicians became mad and corrupt, and had to be executed.

Said was helpless, and asked in his heart: "Brother Huang, can you crack Tzeentch's formula?"

The emperor calmly denied: "No, even the formula itself is constantly changing. Although the subspace exists at any time, the future is also constantly changing."

Said looked up at the sky and replied: "It seems that we can only respond passively, but Brother Huang, do you know where Abaddon is?"

The emperor continued to give a negative answer: "Abadon is chosen by the four gods, and his fate is covered by the four gods, so I can't spy on it for a while."

"If you want to ask for advice, I suggest that you follow the original prophecy and let all possible worlds strengthen their defenses."

Said sighed: "That's the only way, but I don't plan to respond passively, I plan to launch a large-scale expedition to the abyss!"

Offense is the best defense, Said had a thought, gathered thousands of warships in front of the Eye of Terror, and marched into the Eye of Terror.

Said snorted coldly in his heart: "Aren't you Abaddon to please Tzeentch? Then I will purify the planets of the other three gods!"

Abaddon has four gods as shareholders, and should take care of the interests of all shareholders. When facing the expedition to the abyss, the four gods will either prosper or all lose.

The demon planet is an extension of the interests of the gods. Abaddon pleases Tzeentch, and the interests of the other three are damaged, which will definitely cause dissatisfaction and then withdraw the investment.

No matter how bad it is, it will leak its feet in reality, and the position will be determined by the imperial army, which is convenient for encirclement and suppression.

At the same time, in the Eye of Terror.

Said was surprised: "There are so many more stars, and the corruption of the galaxy has been curbed. Where did the four gods come from the demon world?"

The emperor said leisurely: "The universe is not limited to the Milky Way. The Four Gods also have influence in the outer galaxies, but the Milky Way has the greatest influence."

"Recently, in order to restore blood, the Four Gods corrupted a large number of extragalactic galaxies. Although it cost a lot of money, their strength has finally recovered to a certain extent."

"The galaxy outside the galaxy..." Said complained in his heart: "If this continues, the four gods will not be able to be eliminated at all..."

The emperor calmly replied: "Of course, I didn't think about killing gods at the beginning. I only planned to isolate the subspace and let human beings evolve into advanced psionic species."

Said's face became ruthless: "Then we must weaken the Four Gods as much as possible!"

As soon as the words fell, the fleet arrived at the first Nurgle galaxy and launched a cyclone torpedo at the main star, annihilating all life on it.

Immediately afterwards, the fleet continued to the world of Khorne, saw the grotesque aliens duel with each other above, and launched a second bipolar cyclone torpedo.

Then travel to a world of Slaanesh, which is no longer a big fat man, but a fleshy ball covered with disgustingly shaped tentacles.

It took a little effort to destroy the tentacle meat ball, and a thousand nova cannons fired a salvo to destroy it until it was half disabled.

The number of human demon planets has decreased, and the number of alien demon planets has increased, indicating that the influence of the four gods on humans is weakening, and Abaddon will encounter more difficulties in replenishing troops.

Chaos space marines hate aliens, and it is impossible to associate with aliens.

Countless thoughts flashed through Said's mind, and he manipulated the fleet to purify one planet after another. Soon, the four gods couldn't sit still, and set off a strong subspace storm in an attempt to force the expedition fleet back.

Countless demons surrounded the expedition fleet, waiting for Geller's force field to dissipate, they swarmed up and devoured the creatures inside.

However, at this moment, the icy sun of the warp suddenly shone brightly, and a ray of golden light pierced through the purple curtain of the Eye of Terror and projected it on the expedition fleet.

In an instant, the subspace storm was calmed down, the demons melted under the golden light, and the expedition fleet was safe and sound.

The power of the four gods and the god emperor ebbs and flows. When the four gods weaken and their control over the Eye of Terror weakens, the god emperor has been able to penetrate the realm of the four gods.

Said didn't burn the Zhaiqi demon world, but specifically caught the other three demon worlds to burn. The four gods were powerless to stop them, so they could only involve and manifest them in the Black Army.

Subsequently, Said received a large number of reports of chaos attacks, mainly concentrated in the Sabai star cluster in the Taiping star field.

Said locked the Black Legion's range of activities.

The garrison corps in the star area was fighting fires everywhere. Chagatai Khan had just returned to the court and immediately commanded the mobile corps to attack.

Said was not surprised but pleased. After the transformation of fleet civilization, the whereabouts of the Black Legion has always been a mystery, and it has been a long time since there has been a large-scale attack.

Only when an attack occurs can the whereabouts be determined. The Abyss Expedition damaged the interests of the Three Gods, but the Black Legion only gave Tzeentch a dividend. The Three Gods were not happy, and immediately mobilized their power in the Black Legion to please themselves.

Abaddon found that a large number of black legions suddenly violated the prohibition and attacked other imperial worlds without authorization. According to the warlord, they received an oracle.

Just as Abaddon was in doubt, the blessings of the three gods suddenly weakened, and then he learned that the Eye of Terror was on an expedition to the abyss.

Abaddon immediately figured out the joints, knowing that this was a conspiracy by the empire to use the backstabbing relationship between the four gods to interfere with the Tzeentch ceremony.

However, Abaddon wasn't about to give up, and the more the Empire wanted to stop him, the more he had to do it.

What's more, the attacks from all over the world confuse the Imperial Garrison, making it easier for him to attack the real target.

At this moment, he has arrived at a hive world. For the stability of the geological structure, the twenty hives above are arranged according to geometric figures.

Abaddon set off a warp space storm, and led the main force of the Black Legion to quickly defeat the galaxy fleet, and then launched a precise orbital strike on the hive world.

The target of the orbital strike is not the hive capital, but the weak node of the geological plate. It seems that after the precise calculation, when the strike is over, eight of the twenty hive capitals will fall into the abyss at the same time.

None of the tens of billions of people inside survived, and Abaddon completed the second step of the ritual.

Said watched this scene through the puppet and couldn't help gnashing his teeth. This was almost the most costly attack since the Dark Crusade.

When the attack began, he called in a reinforcement fleet, but was stopped by Warp Storm.

Immediately afterwards, the planetary killer shattered the star base with a single shot. When the light cruisers met, they encountered the battleship Vengeful Spirit.

Since the looting of the Imperial currency, the Black Legion's fleet has grown strong enough to break through the defenses of the Galaxy Fleet before Imperial reinforcements arrive.

Saeed, though informed of the attack immediately, could only watch helplessly as chaos ravaged the Empire's world, as reinforcements would take time to arrive.

It was not until the rays of the golden sun dispersed the storm that the reinforcement fleet was able to pass through the warp storm and reach the attacked system.

Aware of Said's frustration, Jaghatai Khan comforted him:

"Don't be depressed, Your Royal Highness, they are not dead, as for existing beside the Golden Throne in another way."

"Besides, we didn't lose. After interrogation, we learned the size of the Black Legion's fleet, and compared the kills. At present, [-]% of the fleet has been destroyed, and [-]% of the Chaos Space Marines have been killed."

"Even the Mechanical Ark was destroyed by us. It can be said that Abaddon's accumulation last time was wiped out."

Said said helplessly: "We did win militarily, but Abaddon still achieved his goal. As long as he pleases the gods, these losses can be made up for."

He stared at the star area, and said in a deep voice: "His next target is likely to be the Imperial Forge World, and he must send additional troops to focus on defense."

Bai Scar said: "His Royal Highness, don't worry, the legion's ground troops have arrived and are assisting the Mechanicus!"

Saeed nodded, and added: "Prepare the torpedo torpedo. Once the foundry world can't hold it, immediately activate the extinction order!"

Bai Scar responded: "Yes, rest assured His Royal Highness, arrangements have been made!"

Soon, also in the Sabai star cluster, a rebellion broke out in a forge world called Caribux, and a crowd of mutant workers besieged the Skitarii.

A tragic civil war broke out on the planet, and the Space Marine Chapter stationed at the star base quickly attacked to assist the cathars to suppress the rebellion.

Thanks to Said's reminder, the galaxy defense fleet quickly put on alert and assembled a formation battle cruiser, including four formation cruisers, and a hundred warships to meet Abaddon.

Soon, Abaddon's fleet attacked and fought with the galaxy fleet. The planet killer was majestic, and a battlecruiser was shot and exploded.

The planet killer contains abundant subspace energy inside, and a single shot can crush a planet, and it can also destroy any imperial warship.

The Imperial Fleet also fought back, the Nova Cannon focused on the Planet Killer, and the light-speed projectile pierced the Planet Killer and exploded.

Although the subspace storm was set off, under the radiance of the golden sun, it didn't last long before it disappeared. The reinforcement fleet was about to arrive, besieging and killing the black army.

At the same time, the rebellion in the Forge World was quickly suppressed, and the strike cruiser launched a precise orbital bombardment, slaughtering the rebels piece by piece.

Just when the victory of the empire was in sight, Abaddon suddenly retreated, leaving a sentence:

"His Royal Highness, the mission of this expedition has been completed, guess what I want to do?"

At this time, the Forge World rebellion was suppressed, and Said was surprised to find that the rebels sacrificed the tech priest to the machine and fused with the machine.

Although the Imperial forces destroyed the Corruption Machine in time, it is unknown why Abaddon did so.

At this time, the emperor calmly said: "This formula is called 'Cranium Collection', and completing it can please Tzeentch, and Abaddon will use this to get Tzeentch's help."

Syed wondered: "What help?"

The Emperor replied: "I don't know the specifics, but according to my observation, it may be for the fusion of certain things."

Said frowned: "Fusion, fusion, fusion...why is it in the Taiping star field, or the Sabai star group..."

The emperor asked again: "Is there any content in your prophecy?"

Said shook his head: "No, I only know that Abaddon pleased Tzeentch, but it is unknown what benefits he gained."

"However, combined with the location of the incident, it reminds me of one thing. In the future, an unowned Blackstone Fortress will be found here!"

The emperor was silent for a while, then replied:
"If the target is Blackstone Fortress, then this Black Crusade is to prepare for the capture of the fortress. The Tzeentch Ritual may be a key step in corrupting the fortress!"

Said carefully recalled the course of the war, and found that in the last battle, a ship in the Black Legion fleet suddenly disappeared during the charge.

It was suddenly dragged into the subspace, and never appeared again. At that time, a small subspace storm appeared around the missing spaceship, and it subsided quickly.

After that, the rest of the Black Legion ships quickly retreated, and Abaddon left behind that mocking remark.

The missing Chaos ship caught Said's attention. It happened that many living prisoners were captured in this battle, and Said immediately ordered the court to step up the interrogation.

Under the extreme torture of the Night Lord, the Chaos captives soon knew everything.

The missing spaceship is called the Impaler, and it is owned by the Servants of the Abyss warband. The leader of the warband is Osidis Marex, one of Abaddon's confidantes.

Marex is vicious, brave in battle, and extremely loyal to Abaddon. The Servants of the Abyss warband is not weak, and it is impossible for Abaddon to abandon him at will.

At this time, the Emperor said: "If the Impaler has jumped out of the subspace, all the overlapping parts with the real matter will be integrated."

Saeed asked: "It's like the gang failed to get stuck in the crack of the wall, and the Piercer and the Blackstone Fortress merged together?"

"In this way, Abaddon's target is probably Blackstone Fortress. Only Blackstone Fortress is worth sacrificing a loyal warband."

Said didn't know the result of the fusion, but he knew that if he didn't intervene, the Blackstone Fortress would eventually be corrupted by the Black Legion and become Abaddon's combat power.

For the sake of the empire, for the sake of mankind, Said must not let this happen.

So he asked: "Brother Huang, can you track down the jumping point of the Impaler?"

The emperor shook his head: "I don't know the exact location, I can only confirm that it is in the Sabai star cluster."

Said called up the star map, and calmly said: "I know, leave the rest to me, to the empire, we will never let Abaddon succeed!"

After finishing the communication with the emperor, Said had a thought and dispatched a large number of scientific research ships into the Sabai star cluster, organized the star fleet, and launched a partial purification expedition.
