Warhammer: Beginning with Planetary Governors

Chapter 384 Savior: Brothers join forces to attack and take out his lair!

Thinking of the Dark Crusade, Abaddon's almost silent heart began to beat again and became hot.

Those were the words that haunted his dreams, the great journey that he had longed for for thousands of years, and he longed all the time for the Dark Crusade to achieve final victory.

That was also the unfinished business of Horus, the Imperial Warmaster and the Sixteenth Primarch.

He once set the galaxy ablaze, led his armies into the Throneworld of Terra, and faced the Emperor, but ultimately failed.

Abaddon had complicated feelings towards Horus; he was the Warmaster's confidant, the captain of the First Company of the Sons of Horus, and also a genetic heir.

To him, Horus was a father figure...

Abaddon's memories went back ten thousand years, to the time when the Sons of Horus came closest to success.

When Horus fell into Chaos and returned, and decided to rebel, he was the first to express his firm support, following his fall without hesitation and clearing out all opposition.

From then on, Abaddon became the pioneer of the Horus Heresy. From Isstvan to the Siege of Terra, he was always on the most difficult battlefields, leading his army to break through many of the empire's solid fortress worlds.

He was looking forward to Horus becoming the new emperor of mankind and dominating the galaxy!

However, in the process, Horus became increasingly corrupted by the gods and became less and less interested in the material world.

This made Abaddon even more heartbroken and dissatisfied.

He felt that his father, the Warmaster who was about to rule the galaxy, might have become a puppet of the gods.

The human overlords became puppets manipulated at will by the gods.

That was something he absolutely could not accept!

To make matters worse, Horus was becoming increasingly insane and no longer had enough thinking power to control the complex situation of the rebellion.

In desperation, Abaddon took over the duties of the Legion's leader and continued the war, hoping to capture Holy Terra and completely control the Empire.

However, mutations and deformities were deepening, and chaos was eroding the sanity of the legion commanders. Their minds became crazy, making the entire war even more difficult to control.

The seeds of failure had been sown and the legion showed signs of collapse.

At this time, Abaddon reacted and realized that Chaos did not want them to really win the war, but to use Horus and the warriors as sacrifices to tear the empire apart!
After discovering this, he immediately summoned the company commanders who were able to remain sane in the chaos, and led the army to protect the legion flagship, which had already turned into a warp hell.

This warrior, unwilling to submit to the gods, was determined to restore Horus to his senses.

However, he was still a step too late, as the Emperor teleported to the flagship with Sanguinius, Rogal Dorn and Valdor and launched an attack on Horus.

Horus, blessed by the Emperor and the Four Gods, started a father-son duel in this Warp hell. The battle between the two sides was so shocking that it transcended time, space and dimension.

When Abaddon arrived at the duel battlefield, Horus had already been killed by the Emperor and the whereabouts of his soul was unknown.

The Loyalists also evacuated, taking the battered Emperor with them.

After the Warmaster's death, Abaddon was urged to surrender and return to the Imperium, but he rejected the offer, insisting that the Rebellion was the right thing to do and that Chaos was the only thing standing in the way.

Eventually, Abaddon led the remaining warriors and fled into the Eye of Terror.

But he did not succumb to the Chaos Gods, nor did he pay attention to the affairs of the Warp. Instead, he declared himself king and devoted all his energy to the real galaxy.

He accepted that Horus had failed, declared himself the new Warmaster of Chaos, renamed the Sons of Horus the Black Legion, and ordered his warriors to paint their armour black.

This will erase past failures and accumulate strength again.

Abaddon announced all this to the other rebellious Chaos legions. The Black Legion will become a brand new army that will absorb any Chaos army that is willing and able to fight to kill the false emperor.

But at first, the rebel legions did not take the new Chaos Warmaster seriously.

Abaddon spent nearly a thousand years beating up those who disobeyed him, and visited several fallen primarchs to gain support.

Soon, everyone felt that he was worthy of the title of Warmaster, and his legion quickly absorbed Chaos Space Marines, expanding and becoming increasingly larger.

The Great Plunderer and Chaos Warmaster has hundreds of thousands of Chaos Space Marines at his disposal and controls many Chaos territories. Hundreds of billions of human slaves and warriors who have devoted themselves to Chaos are serving him.

The Chaos warships even blocked out the sky and the sun.

After Abaddon possessed such powerful strength, his silent heart began to stir again.

He decided to fulfill his promise and complete his unfinished business. His army once again set foot on the land of Holy Terra and pull down the false emperor from the Golden Throne.

The great plunderer and chaos warlord will dominate the galaxy and become the new master of mankind!
"Weak Horus, foolish Horus, he had the galaxy in his hands, and let it slip through his fingers."

When Abaddon launched the first Dark Crusade, he ambitiously said: "Now, I will take it all back..."

He was so high-spirited that he led the Chaos army out of the Eye of Chaos, launched an attack on the Empire, and started the Great Crusade.

The sword points to Holy Terra!

Those chaotic beings were also frightened by its power and joined in one after another.

All parties believe that this Chaos Warmaster can unleash bloodshed on the galaxy, tearing the Imperium apart and setting it ablaze once again!
The empire was facing a formidable enemy and thought it was at a critical moment of life and death.

However, ten thousand years passed, and Abaddon launched thirteen dark expeditions before he finally destroyed Cadia and pushed the front line to the doorstep of the Eye of Terror...

This Chaos Warmaster spent ten thousand years and thirteen expeditions, but achieved less than a quarter of what Horus achieved in seven years.

Not even the shadow of Holy Terra was seen.

This caused Abaddon to lose a lot of his authority, and he became less and less able to command the rest of the Chaos Legion. The disobedience of the various units often made him so angry that he cursed them as insects.

Now, his sphere of influence is limited to the Eye of Terror, the Hazy Star Field and the Alert Star War Zone, and he has deployed more than half of his troops in the Alert Star War Zone.

But there is no doubt that this Chaos Warmaster is still one of the most powerful Chaos forces in the galaxy.

Abaddon never forgot the humiliation he suffered, and was eager to set foot on the land of Holy Terra again.

Now, he saw another great opportunity!

After the return of the Regent, he mobilized almost all of the Empire's fleets to launch the Indomitable Crusade, and with an unstoppable offensive, he penetrated into the dark side of the Empire in various star regions.

The purpose of the Second Fleet of the Indomitable Crusade is to clear the dark side of the Nebulous Star Region and guard the Nakmond Corridor area that can provide stable access to the light side of the Empire and even the Solar Star Region.

But after entering the Hazy Star Region, the fleet encountered numerous obstacles and was even besieged by several Chaos forces.

The Chaos Legion under his command was the largest of the besieging forces.

Now the defense line of the Second Fleet of the Indomitable Expedition is on the verge of collapse, and the Regent is unable to provide timely support.

Once the Chaos Alliance breaks through the Second Fleet's defenses, completely destroy those fleets.

He could then summon the guards from the Sentinel Star War Zone and the Eye of Terror, use the Nachmond Corridor to reach the other side of the empire, and fight his way to Holy Terra.

Moreover, the Regent's Indomitable Crusade has transferred most of the Empire's light side fleets to the Empire's dark side, resulting in an internal void.

The fortress worlds along the way are absolutely unable to withstand the attack of the Black Legion.

Abaddon deduced the battle situation, his heart becoming more and more heated, and he sneered: "I see the hope of victory. The 14th Dark Expedition is ready to go. Perhaps the era of the Great Plunderer has arrived!"

This time, he will wipe out all the previous humiliations and win irrefutable and rich results.

Ten thousand years later, he, the successor of Horus, will set foot on the land of Holy Terra to complete the unfinished business!
The surge of emotions causes more chaotic energy to overflow.

But the Chaos Warmaster was not blinded by the good situation and beautiful vision.

To achieve all this, the Regent's Second Fleet must be destroyed first, and this must be done swiftly and with unstoppable force.

This is the only way to attract more chaotic forces to join this expedition.

hum~
The Planet Killer led a Chaos fleet into a warp jump.

This Vanguard Battle was so important that Abaddon decided to go to the battlefield in the Nebulous Segmentum to supervise the battle in person.

He gave orders to quickly send the fleet responsible for guarding against the Regent into the battlefield.

Abaddon himself aimed at the knight world of Darova in the Nachmond Corridor. He would destroy and shatter Darova and the nearby civilized world, and let the blood of the imperial warriors cover the galaxy.

This will announce the arrival of the Great Plunderer and Chaos Warmaster to the entire Hazy Star Region and the Chaos World.

A great journey is about to begin.

Only by coming quickly and joining in this feast hosted by him can you get a bigger share in the future galactic landscape.

Darkness has arrived!
-
Barr.

The victory celebrations had lasted for several days and many major ceremonies had been completed.

But the celebration continues and will not end until three months later.

I just hope that the Primarch and the Regent never show up again after completing the important ceremony.

This made many imperial nobles who came here feel quite regretful.

The berthing area of ​​the First Fleet of the Indomitable Expedition.

Dozens of transport ships arrived here. They were the Savior's transport fleet, and they would bring the first batch of support that the Savior provided to the Regent.

The most important of these are the administrative support teams of hundreds of thousands of people, numerous mechanical and data priests, and corresponding communication equipment.

From now on, these people will officially serve the Regent.

They will build and install numerous communication equipment in the Savior's territories, gradually reconstruct the Regent's government affairs and communication systems, and optimize the operating efficiency of related systems.

Now, the first thing they have to do is to install the Mechanical Goddess's Machine Soul host on the Regent's vehicle, Macragge's Glory.

Allow the Mechanical Goddess to better exert influence and extend protection to related communication mechanical systems.

The engineering team transported a large number of component modules to the core cabin of the flagship, and the Mechanical Sage led the priests to assemble them quickly.

They are very efficient.

Today, the engineering and mechanical departments of the Savior Territory have implemented a modular construction system, and most mechanical parts are standardized and modularized.

They will cast module components in large quantities on the lunar foundry world, then store them and transport them to the destination for installation when needed.

It also allows for quicker maintenance and replacement.

This is much faster than the empire's previous rough construction process, and it is even faster than some oil guys who like to rub it on the spot by hand.

Of course, such standardized production can hardly compare to the works of those great mechanical sages.

But the advantage is large quantity and fast speed.

It only takes three days for the mechanical sages to build a ship-borne version of the machine soul host that covers hundreds of meters and is dozens of meters high, and at the same time install corresponding receiving equipment on other ships.

And the data sages also started working.

These guys with unusually sparse hair began to extract various data from the Regent's communication system and adjust the programs of communication and government management software.

Make adaptation processing for the Regent.

It can be said to be tailor-made.

By then, the Regent will be able to experience online software tools such as WeChat, OA, and CRM, and will be able to better handle government affairs online.

Instead, in the 40k era, when we are able to travel between stars, we are still struggling to use parchment documents.

Regent Sanctuary.

Aide-de-camp Felix opened the door to the sanctuary area to welcome the arrival of the government affairs team.

From now on, these people will be in the sanctuary, serving the office of the Regent and will train more political talents.

In the field of vision, a capable political officer wearing glasses and a simple gold-embellished robe walked over with his staff.

In addition to the leading political officer, the team members also include civil affairs advisers, military advisers, life assistants, document filing assistants, communications assistants, etc.

These experienced teams can take care of all aspects of managers.

These are talents carefully selected by the Savior, who can take care of the Regent from head to toe, inside and out.

Even while walking, the political officer lowered his head and used the auxiliary robotic arm to quickly browse, evaluate and process the documents on four or five data boards.

But not all of his attention was devoted to work.

Wait until the moment you get closer.

The political officer completed all the tasks as if he had calculated everything, put the auxiliary robotic arm and data tablet behind him, and hid them in his loose robe.

He raised his head and saluted slightly, showing an impeccable smile:
"Mr. Felix, I am sorry to have kept you waiting. I am Bayesa Cotton, the political officer who will serve the Regent..."

"Mr. Bayesa, I am the aide-de-camp Felix."

Not sure if it was because of the other person's demeanor or attitude, but Felix did not feel any discomfort or resistance towards the newcomer.

He instructed: "The Regent has issued an order. From now on, except for some specially marked taboo areas, you can go anywhere in this sanctuary."

Bayesa nodded, neither hurried nor slow:
"Then we'll start working, hoping that our arrival will bring a new atmosphere."

The new civil servant was quite confident.

Because he comes from the family of General Cotton, his grandfather is the Savior's Hand Bayev, his father Baru is the dean of Zhongsi Academy, and many family members are in charge of various political affairs in the territory.

Today, he is the third generation of the family and one of the best.

The Lord Savior had admired his abilities, had high hopes for him, and viewed him as an important future manager of the territory.

Now he has been given an important mission to serve as the regent of the empire.

What made Bayesa feel even more honored was that not long ago, the Savior and the Regent summoned him together and asked him if he was willing to become the Regent's political officer.

In front of the Regent, the Savior praised himself as "Little Macador". His most respected grandfather, the Hand of the Savior, had once received such honor and praise.

That is also the goal that members of Steward Cotton's family strive for.

The regent even held his hand earnestly and gave him more encouragement.

It seemed that he was worried that he would decline the arrangement out of fear and lack of confidence and not serve as this existing political official.

Such praise and appreciation made Bayesa even more excited. The young political official was determined to better serve the imperial regent and never let him down!

"This is the Regent's office, and it will also be the main area where you will work in the future..."

Felix led Bayesa to the regent's office.

When he pushed open the quaint embossed wooden door, everything inside the office came into view.

The furnishings here are very simple. Apart from a large wooden table in the center, there are only piles of parchment documents and piles of parchment documents.

The documents took up most of the office, with each pile more than two meters high.

wow~
A pile of files collapsed, making a loud noise.

The atmosphere fell into silence.

Felix was a little worried that the political official would be intimidated by this.

Because apart from the Primarch, it is difficult for anyone to bear such heavy government affairs.

This scene is indeed amazing.

Bayesa was quite shocked when he saw such a complicated and inefficient office. Even the people behind him exclaimed in amazement after a moment of silence.

But there was no change in his expression.

From the corner of his eye, he could see countless tiny text data rapidly flowing through the glasses of this government official.

Even in his daily life, he is constantly browsing documents, reading and learning new knowledge, completely integrating work into his life.

Now, he was looking through all the information he could collect about the Regent and the fleet to fully understand his new job.

I already had psychological expectations for the work I was about to face.

Bayesa pushed the glasses on his nose, and a glimmer of light flashed across the lenses:
"Mr. Felix, leave this to me..."

……

Baal, Sanctuary of the Savior.

In the private hall, Regent Guilliman sat on the lazy sofa, almost sinking into it.

Although his posture was not very good, he felt inexplicably comfortable.

Guilliman sat up straight again and took a sip of hot tea comfortably. There were many exquisite snacks and pastries on the table.

But soon he became uncomfortable, frowned, and looked a little worried.

The idle time made the regent feel worried.

He hadn't done anything for two hours, nor had he dealt with any government affairs, and he was still worried about those documents.

But now the government affairs system and communication system are in the process of handover.

But you can't interfere too much.

The government support team must take advantage of this rare interval between wars to handle and adjust all affairs.

Otherwise, there will be trouble once the war starts.

After the Regent had communicated with the chapter masters on matters, he arranged for his confidant to hand over the Primaris Space Marine technology to the Savior's Biological Magus Moss.

Then I came to find the savior.

But when he arrived here, he found out that Brother Ron was taking a nap, so he had to sit down and wait.

Originally the maid wanted to remind the savior, but was stopped.

"I'll wait here for him to wake up..."

Guilliman said so.

He knew the importance of sleep, and he himself was also suffering from difficulty falling asleep due to the interference of the Armor of Destiny.

It has been several months now without any shut-eye.

The Battle of Baal was so difficult, and then there was a large-scale celebration. The Ron brothers must have been exhausted and had no time to sleep.

Let him sleep a little longer now.

The Regent waited patiently.

His mind quickly flew to the other side of the distant stars, and he became worried about the war in the hazy star field.

But the Webway route has not yet been fully prepared, and support is still arriving.

He couldn't leave right away.

But fortunately, all this took very short time.

Ten days later, his fleet would be able to use the webway to travel and reach the battlefield dozens of times faster than before.

This eased the regent's worries a little, but he soon started to worry about more things.

"Brother Ji, why didn't you wake me up earlier when you came here?"

Ron came over drowsily, wrapped in his bathrobe and wearing cotton slippers.

He opened a can of iced Cola and passed one to Guilliman.

He has been sleeping better recently, and his sleeping time has been extended. Moreover, Slaanesh has been stimulated by something unknown, and his dreams have become more intense, and he even cosplays as the Goddess of Life.

I don’t know what the mentality is.

Guilliman took a sip of the iced cola and sipped his lips. The special taste was novel to him.

Ron fell onto the lazy sofa next to him, almost burying himself in it, not caring about his image at all.

There is no need to care so much between brothers.

He glanced at Guilliman and found that the guy still had a sad face, as if he would never relax.

"Hey, are you still worried about the battle situation in the Misty Star Region?" Ron asked with a sigh.

Guilliman nodded, quite serious:

"If the Second Fleet of the Indomitable Crusade collapses, the Black Legion may threaten more areas through the Nakmond Corridor, or even Holy Terra..."

The regent also saw the risks and was secretly frightened.

Without the help of the Ron brothers and the webway route, the slow support speed would increase the risk of this war and make it extremely terrifying.

The slightest carelessness will cause the situation to deteriorate and become irreversible.

Ron frowned, also thinking about this:
"Do you think it's possible that Abaddon will go to the battlefield in the Nebulous Segmentum himself and mobilize troops from the Vigilant Planet and the Eye of Terror?"

Guilliman has apparently studied the Warmaster of Chaos:

"Abaddon is eager to attack the Empire and Holy Terra. He will not let go of this opportunity. If the situation is unfavorable, he will definitely not be resigned and will transfer troops from other places."

"Hiss~ This is a good opportunity..."

Ron said suddenly.

"Chance?"

When Guilliman heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

In his opinion, this is a difficult war that may affect the entire Indomitable Crusade.

“Take a look…”

Ron raised his hand slightly and used his psychic power to pull down a mechanical valve. A projection machine descended from the sky above the hall and, as it adjusted, projected a hazy star map of the star field.

Guilliman looked at the star map.

There are many imperial regions on this star map, and the locations of the Alert Star War Zone, the Eye of Terror, and the Nakmond Corridor are highlighted.

The Eye of Terror is in the upper left of the Nebulous Segmentum, opposite it is the Alert Star War Zone, and the Nakmond Corridor is in the center towards the Solar Segmentum.

Two Webway routes are also marked, one leading to the Eye of Terror and the other leading to the vicinity of the Nak'mond Corridor.

He understood immediately.

This brother must have already been considering and preparing for a battle against the Hazy Star Region.

This is actually true.

Today, the Savior Territory is continuously exploring high-speed waterways leading to relevant areas of major star fields and carrying out maintenance and repairs.

But Ron ordered the greenskins to prioritize repairing the webway routes in the Hazy Star Region, waiting for an opportunity someday.

Fight against the Vigilance Star and the Eye of Terror.

Now, the opportunity has come.

Ron pulled his nightcap back slightly and pointed at the Eye of Terror.
“The existence of the Webway Expressway will allow the fleet to reach the Eye of Terror and the Nakmond Corridor more quickly.

We will fight together. You will be responsible for defeating the Chaos coalition that is besieging the Second Fleet head-on. Concentrate your forces to launch a surprise attack and beat Abaddon hard, catching him off guard.

Then find an opportunity to expose a flaw, give Abaddon the illusion that he can win, try to lure out his fleet in the Eye of Terror, and then run away.

I am responsible for leading the fleet to secretly rob his empty lair. There are many good things in there!"
