40K: Where did the Emperor go?

Chapter 109 Angron Needs a Brain
Karn found Angron and told the Primarch about his conversation with Lotharin.

Angron stroked the Butcher's Nail on his head, he didn't expect the Son of Horus's first company commander to be so tricky.

According to Angron's previous temper, just cut him off and it's over, but now he really can't kill him, killing him is tantamount to a direct war with Horus.

On the [-]rd, Isstvan betrayed the empire. If he broke up with Horus again, it would be really difficult for him to gain a foothold.

The most important thing is that the World Eaters did not have their own supply channels. Angron would just drop into the battle and kill and burn them all. If they didn't take anything, they would be destroyed directly. Even the trophies were skulls or weapons and armor.

Before the rebellion, the empire provided supplies to maintain the daily and war needs of the Twelfth Legion, and after the rebellion, it was provided by Horus.

While developing his own abilities, Angron found many problems when he calmed down and thought because of the disappearance of the Butcher's Nail and the growth of his brain.

Why should I rebel with Horus?After the rebellion, I seem to get nothing, and now the lifeline of the Legion is still in the hands of Horus.

To avenge the Emperor, now that the Emperor is in my hands, there is no need for me to continue playing with him.

Wait for him to fight, my main purpose now is to find an opportunity to escape, and his next plan is to ambush three legions on Isstvan [-].

The failure of Fulgrim's plan to persuade Ferrus to surrender should be reported soon, and the next thing will be the matter of Isstvan Five.

Angron asked Kahn, "Kan, you said that if I turned against Horus on Istvan [-] and told Ferus that I was actually an undercover agent, would they believe it?"

Kahn: "I won't believe it..."

…………

Angron came to Abaddon's warship in a landing craft. He had to go to see Horus with Abaddon, and he had to dispel Horus' doubts.

Sitting on the landing craft, surrounded by the six Devourers, Angron felt empty in his heart. He kept thinking of his own room on the ship. These days he got used to having his father by his side. Now that his father was gone, he was very upset.

Angron said to a Devourer beside him: "Contact Kahn, are the things in my room safe?"

The Devourer nodded and switched on the communication: "Captain Kahn, the Primarch asked me to ask you if the contents of the room are safe."

Kahn's voice came quickly: "Everything is normal, tell the Primarch to rest assured."

The Devourer nodded to Angron: "Everything is normal."

Angron wanted to say give me the communication, I will talk to him, let me talk to him.

If he hadn't tried hard to suppress himself with reason, he would have gone to the cockpit to force the pilot to drive the aircraft back.

I should have taken him with me, Angron thought.

I can hide him on the aircraft and let the guards watch over him, so I can rest assured.

Angron was annoyed like a modern youth who forgot to bring his mobile phone when he went out, and the feeling of empty chattering tormented him.

The aircraft landed on the platform, the hatch opened, and the circulating unfamiliar air made Angron feel better temporarily.

He stepped out of the aircraft under the support of the guards, and at this time Abaddon had already led a team to greet him outside.

After seeing Angron, Abaddon saluted Angron: "Your Excellency, welcome."

Angron waved impatiently: "Okay, now take me to communicate with Horus, I don't want to talk nonsense with you."

Abaddon has long been accustomed to Angron's unceremonious and bad attitude, and this is the Angron he is familiar with and knows.

If Angron suddenly became polite or patient, it would be as if the sun on Terra had risen in the west, and those around him should be suspicious.

Abaddon quickly led Angron to the command deck, and after entering the command room, Abaddon immediately communicated with the Vengeful Spirit.

While waiting for the communication, Angron shook his legs impatiently, and his combat boots stepped on the deck and made a "boom! Boom, boom, boom." It was obvious that he was very impatient.

It wasn't until the projection of Horus appeared in front of Angron that he stopped the noise from his feet.

Horus looked at Angron: "Brother, I finally got in touch with you."

Angron replied impatiently: "Horus, if you have anything to say, hurry up, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you here."

Horus was not dissatisfied with Angron's arrogant behavior. On the contrary, he let go of some other conjectures. Angron was still the same Angron.

As long as he is still that brainless Angron, then he will be able to handle him and his legion.

Horus: "We have to fight on Isstvan V for the next battle. Take your legion down to Isstvan V, drive the Conqueror away, and attract Ferus and the others to fight us on the ground."

Angron sneered: "Hehe, I remember you asked Fulgrim to persuade Ferrus to surrender? Didn't he succeed?"

Horus: "Obviously we underestimated Ferrus's stupid loyalty to the emperor. He will not stand with us. We have to kill him and wipe out his legion."

Angron: "Just tell me and my legion what to do."

Horus: "Very well, then I will ask Abaddon to send the message to your captain, but Angron, I have a question I want you to answer."

Angron's heart tightened, but he asked casually without showing any traces on his face, "What's the problem?"

Horus: "Why did you suddenly evacuate from Isstvan [-]? According to my expectation, you should fight for a long time."

Sure enough, the question came out, and Angron replied: "It's pointless to kill those Astartes. I want to face other brothers or the emperor face to face, so I left."

Horus: "Really?"

Angron: "Could you help me find another reason?"

Horus looked at Angron through the projection for a while, and then said, "It's just curiosity, okay my brother, let's get ready."

Horus turned off the projection. He felt that Angron must be hiding something from him, but he couldn't figure out what it was.

But now is not the time to think about these things. Now that the deal is done, Angron will definitely not help the Emperor turn his back on him. He has to wipe out all three loyal factions on Isstvan V, so that he can gain an advantage in the subsequent war.

After hanging up the communication, Angron got up and was about to leave, when Abaddon said, "Master Angron, why don't you rest with me for one night."

Angron: "No, I just like being on my own boat."

Abaddon watched Angron leave in a hurry. Abaddon didn't force him to stay, so he was polite. In fact, he didn't want to keep such a dangerous and unstable monster as Angron on his ship.
