How can a retired savior be considered retired if his price drops to 40,000?

Chapter 158: A twist on family ethics drama
The waves of the warp rolled again because of the roar of a primitive body from the depths of his soul, and the already scattered dim lighting around him flickered in response.Corax's despair and misery used this voice as a medium to directly penetrate into the hearts of everyone present - except Sister Silence, almost no one could respond effectively to this for a while, including Robert Key. Liman himself.

But he was not the only Primarch present.

"This is between you and me." Coze's voice said.His voice seemed distant, as if it came from reality and behind the curtain at the same time, "You want me to die, so come and kill me. Only after I - the person who should judge them - is dead can you touch my heirs! "

What followed was the next shock full of anger and pain.This vibration does not come from a specific location, but from the space itself.In just a few seconds when everyone was unable to move, the vortex formed by the crow feathers quickly and repeatedly impacted another darkness that was darker than black, and countless configurations that could be the source of fear emerged from the latter, bringing all Resisted the attacks one by one.

"Where is my heir?"

Similar words can be vaguely discerned in Corax's roar:

"Istravan-Five-my-Legion-"

At that moment, the black crow feathers swelled up, and the form of Corax was swallowed up in it. Countless blood-red eyes glared at the rebels, each pupil carrying the intention of hunting the opponent to the end of time. will.The air flow surged irregularly out of thin air, and time and space were distorted by the anger of the original body in this area. Under the chaotic feathers, Corax's voice was broken and overlapped together, as if there were thousands of him. Talk at the same time:

"—Revenge—Killing—Pursuit—I will—"

"Corax!" After quickly adapting to such pressure, Guilliman endured the impact of those words on his mind and raised his voice in an attempt to bring back his brother's sanity, "Corvus Corax!" Lux! I beg you to stop! I understand your urgent mood, but please be sure to listen to the cause and effect of all this before making any judgment!"

The Imperial Regent tried to move forward, and the Sisters of Silence, unaffected, immediately formed a formation around him and advanced with him.It was hard to say whether it was Guilliman's shout that had the final effect, or the force field surrounding untouchables like the Sisters of Silence that suppressed soul energy, but at least Corax finally noticed him amid the chaotic strong wind.

Some of the blood-red eyes hidden between the feathers looked hesitantly in the direction of Guilliman, but seemed to want to turn back and continue staring in the direction of Curze.If they were all under the control of Corax's own will, this phenomenon might be considered as: he didn't know where to look.

The Primarch should not have been troubled by such a trivial matter. This phenomenon should have puzzled Guilliman, but he did not have time to think about it.While being stared at by those blood-red eyeballs, the Imperial Regent had the illusion that even his own soul was frozen.Corax's sight almost had a physical weight, something too heavy that crossed over the Sister of Silence beside him, suppressing him entirely from a non-material level, even depriving him of his ability to think.

"—Guilliman."

There was no doubt that he recognized his brother.But that might not be a good thing.

"Guilliman—"

The first call was confirmation, the second call was howl.Corax's voice still conveys strong emotions that may come from himself, and when the target of these emotions is a specific person, the person who is the target will bear the impact that is thousands of times stronger than the aftermath. .

There was so much emotion in that call that it was too difficult even for the Primarch to discern.Guilliman was hit hard when he heard his brother's second call. Even though he knew that this was just a mental reaction and these feelings did not belong to him, and his body in reality was not harmed, he still I couldn't help but fall into the apologies, guilt, and gloomy feelings shrouded by failure brought about by that call.

——Corax considers himself a failure.Guilliman realized this.But he could not successfully form any words of relief.Too strong mental pressure sometimes reflects back on the mortal body. This was originally just knowledge that Guilliman could not empathize with, but at this moment, he realized that there was indeed no difference between the original body and mortals. As big as he thought:
He became physically sick and queasy because of these strong feelings that were not his own.This is really surprising because he doesn't even know if he has a "stomach" in the normal human sense.

"—Guilliman—I—"

The Imperial Regent did nothing, but himself shrank as Corax himself shrank in a mass of feathers.The emotion contained in these unfinished words changed again, and the strong guilt in his heart gave rise to the fear of being unable to face his loyal brother - Guilliman could read this, and so could Curze.

Then they both realized that Corax was once again preparing to escape.

"You can't do this!" The amorphous black shadow that could be regarded as Coze quickly swarmed over, trying to spread to every feather flying around, "You coward, you have been running away for 1 years. ! Come out and face reality - face me!"

This was a very straightforward provocation, almost including the words "provoking method" directly in the sentence, but Corax was obviously immediately diverted by Coz's speech, and once again turned his eyes one after another. Turning back, he roared angrily at the opponent from the subspace.

"This is wrong!" Guilliman turned to Curze, who seemed more communicative at the moment and seemed to be aligned with his goals.This sounds like a joke no matter how you listen to it, but in this empire that has only become more and more ridiculous over the past ten thousand years, such a ridiculous reality finally became true.

"Of course there's something wrong!" Coz reluctantly said this in the midst of his busy schedule to deal with the opponent's attack. "I told you before that he is in a 'worrying mental state' now!"

Between these two short sentences, Corax clearly recognized Guilliman's existence again.Countless ravens in the shadows let out a scream at this moment, and he began to tear apart his whole body uncontrollably: a part of him hoped to turn into a shadow and leave here, to escape in a place far enough away from Curze Entering the Warp to escape Guilliman's possible questioning and condemnation; while another part urged him to continue hunting his traitorous brothers, his irreconcilable enemies, the ones he had sworn to punish, dragging the entire Imperium into mire. One of the main culprits who burned that great ideal to the ground.

Corax's confused thoughts were unable to decide which plan to follow next. The efficient thought processing ability of the original body became a burden at this moment - he had gone too far in the subspace and his own essence, and had lost it. own true physical form.Without the restraints of the material form, two thoughts that were difficult to integrate with his broken spirit because he had spent 1 years in the realm of chaos were splitting him in half.

Similar things have happened countless times in the past.At the beginning, Corax only realized that he could do this and thought that this method of separation was very convenient. However, as he abused this ability for thousands of years, his own thinking gradually fell apart due to this. Later, the essence and thoughts that should have been divided under control gradually became uncontrollable.At this point, the status quo has become irreversible. Even Corax himself cannot count how many ravens he is made up of, and whether he himself is complete here.

Or maybe, He is no longer a "human" at this moment.

The moment this thought reappeared in Corax's consciousness, another painful cry belonging to the primarch was heard in the warp.The emotion contained in this cry of pain was even greater than the hatred Corax showed when facing Curze. He once again successfully stopped others from approaching him unconsciously, and then prepared to tear up the curtain on the spot and leave. Reality has retreated into the subspace that has made him more comfortable over the past ten thousand years.But at the same time, another strange power emerged in this space that was used as a temporary prison. The lighting stabilized again and increased the brightness. The solid floor originally paved with metal and marble followed a gentle breeze. , filled with illusory but beautiful and gorgeous flowers in the blink of an eye——

"I've caught up, I've caught up. It seems I arrived in time." For Coz, it was once again the frivolous voice of a colorful dream demon from Chaldea who came out of nowhere. In everyone's ears.The large group of feathers that had been screaming quickly became quiet in such a scene, and piled up in a heap as if they were weightless.

Guilliman stared at the black, indistinguishable shape of feathers in confusion for a few seconds before he came up with a vague guess: Corax seemed to be asleep.

　Miwu (lying down)
　　Speaking of which, the military book in the seventh or eighth edition said that the Crow King was no longer blocking the Luojia Gate, but had gone somewhere.Then Lorgar could go out for a walk, and then there was the famous scene where the author of the Book of Divinations was defeated by a commoner woman holding the Book of Divinations...
