God Emperor’s Angel of Death

This is a world shaped by pain.

Don’t think this description is crazy talk. This is not a hypocritical poetic or distorted metaphor. The planet’s crust is made up of painful breathing, terrifying dreams, and the eternal echo of the gods.

All of the above flowed out from the subspace, and finally formed a wasteland like a knot of dry bones.

If I was when I first entered the eyes of fear, such a scene would surely make me full of interest.

It is said that if you touch this bony ground with your bare hands, you will feel the unconscious bloody echo of those dreamers and victims-it is their pain that has shaped this place.

Even if you didn't touch the bone-like ground, you could hear bursts of whispers emanating from the cracked and stinky bone marrow surface.

They will repeatedly mention a name--

The pupil of hell.

This is a disorderly, chaotic world full of subspace distortion creations, and it is also home to a group of exiles and avengers.

Those exiles used to be the Guardian of the great Imperium outside the subspace, but now they have become its robber and destroyer.

They call themselves Red Pirates, but they once had another name.

Astral Claw.

No one can imagine, how frantic fantasy created such a world?

Is Huron's sinister spirit shaping this place according to his wishes, or is it just the void energy turned into an entity, the filthy torrent of subspace washed away and changed a world without guidance?

However, as a world raging by demons, the climate and landscape of this nameless planet are quite stable.

Only occasionally, the lies of the past will turn into boiling blood and pouring down, and the storm of scarlet often has the corrosive properties enough to melt ceramic steel.

Due to the turbulent corrosion of supernatural forces, part of the surface of this world has been destroyed and turned into a wasteland covered with ashes. The fortress of tyrant Huron stands in such a bone meal desert, half buried Under the dust of this eroding nightmare.

Its crooked tower points straight to the sky, shrouded in a mist of highly toxic chemicals.

On the side of the tower, the ugly and huge exhaust vents discharge toxic gases into the nearby desert, forming another line of defense.

Even so, this fortress is still a pilgrimage Holy Land for the wild Ork and mutants entrenched on this planet-thousands of corpses of various degrees of decay are all over the surrounding desert.

In this world, most creatures no longer care about time, because time is meaningless to them, and it is almost impossible to record the changes of the sun, the moon, and the year.

The only life here is breathing, bleeding, breathing again, bleeding again, within reincarnation of killing and death forever.

Only existence at that moment is real, either dead or alive.

This is the essence of chaos.

Time is a mundane concept, a product of the material universe, and its bondage has no effect on everything in the subspace.

After entering the fortress, you can see huge indoor arsenals and slave prisons everywhere. Various mutants are guarding every key intersection and passage with guns. A large number of automatic turrets and laser arrays form the defense system of the fortress. , And its core is a huge monastery hall-just like the former home of Astral Claw.

Some people say that this is Huron's mockery of the hypocritical Imperium.

Some people also say that this is an unforgettable echo of the past.

But in any case, it has become a heart overflowing with venom.

Entering the church, the carved window lattices that were originally decorated with stained glass are now just open holes.

These panes shattered into several millions of colored diamonds and covered the ground. The scenes they portrayed are now a secret. The rows of golden statues on both sides have become an overturned and defeated square, scattered. Between the ruins.

A huge white stone-carved double-headed eagle once spread its wings and entangled on the high wall, but now it has turned into rubble and fell on the stairs, replaced by a chaotic eight-pointed star smeared with blood.

There are corpses in white robes everywhere, their robes torn by sharp claw, and blood dyed to black.

The condition of these corpses is far from ideal. Part of each corpse melted into the wall, as if absorbed by the world that is now their grave, but suddenly stopped halfway.

They are all priests of the state religion. There are 444 people in total. They were captured by the red pirates and sacrificed to the dark gods with the most depraved ceremony.

Just for a withered life to be struggling on whilst at death's door.

Now, the withered life sits high on a huge black iron throne.

He is like a huge shadow, shrouded above the larger church, the entire body is covered in scarlet armor, full of cracks and strange symbols.

But looking at that body, it doesn’t look so coordinated. The right side of the body seems to have shrunk due to illness. It is slightly smaller than the left side. The original arm is also replaced by a huge mechanical sharp claw. .

A lot of pipelines wrapped around his neck, and the only face that leaked out was like a melted and resolidified wax figure, covered with criss-crossed scars, and his wide-eyed eyes were full of bloodshot eyes. It looks like smoldering briquettes.

He is the former vortex Guardian, the chapter chief of Astral Claw, and now the leader of the red pirates, [Black Heart] Truf Huron.

Astral Claw was established in the middle of M35, as one of the expedition chapters. The purpose of its establishment is to help stabilize Imperium, which is slowly collapsing during the transition period of New Terra.

After Huron became the Chapter Chief, he and his troops were sent to patrol the Great Vortex, which is the intersection of the subspace and the physical universe in the extreme Star Domain, and an important trading hub for Imperium.

Immediately on 587.M41, the Great Vortex Watchers Alliance was formally established.

This is to deal with the threat of the Great Whirlpool area and protect the resources and navigation channels of Imperium. The Star Warrior Alliance, ordered by the Supreme Lord Council of Earth, requires the permanent stationing of several Space Marine Chapters stationed in the Great Whirlpool. .

This alliance is led by the pronounced Astral Claw Chapter, leading several other Chapters to form the watchmen of the vortex, responsible for the stability of the vortex area. The initial members include Chapters such as Astral Claw, Weeper and Mantis warrior.

At first, Astral Claw did a great job. Huron was even awarded the title of Great Vortex Guardian, but as time went on, Huron’s character defects began to show up.

Although he is a brave and resourceful leader, he lacks the steel faith and selfless dedication necessary to be an Astarte cultivator, so when his glory increases, Huron His arrogance is also growing day by day.

As the Badab region became stronger and more stable than any time in history, Astral Claw Chapter began to expand to the outside world, and even launched a robbery against other nearby alien ruled regions. Plundered, and achieved great results, once obtained control of nearly half of the vortex area.

After being dazzled by the victory, Huron sent his servants to make a pilgrimage to Earth. At the same time, he attached a detailed plan, mentioning that if he can completely conquer the vortex and nearby stars , Imperium will get more benefits. For this reason, Imperium has applied for more Space Marine Chapter to support the Spiral Star Region, and it can even consider a special army building for this plan.

Unfortunately, Huron’s proposal was rejected without being carefully studied by the superiors. The demand for Imperium in other places is much more important than the expansion of the Great Vortex.

After the application to redistribute resources to the Great Vortex was rejected, Huron stopped paying tithes of the Lord Badab to the Ministry of the Interior, and closed the trade lanes that passed through the areas under his control. In order to protest against Imperium’s refusal to give him and allies enough resources to defend the big vortex.

This behavior has severely affected the production of refined ore in the Badab region itself and the pale star region crystals from the large vortex region; in addition, the void channel near the main planet of Badab, and the The ore supply chain in this important area was completely cut off.

Huron characterizes this behavior as his authority as a defender of the large vortex area, and requisitions all these industrial resources and labor to increase the defense capabilities of the Badab region, while deploying more fleets and Fortification in the important world controlled by the tyrant.

In the Badab region, Astral Claw has enhanced the defense capabilities of space and created the "Steel Ring" defense system.

The blockade of the interstellar channel caused serious damage to the trade in the neighboring star area, and also laid the groundwork for the subsequent war.
