God Emperor’s Angel of Death

"What about afterwards?"

For some reason, Soshian was also deeply attracted by the story of the eighth Legion.

"Legion suffered heavy casualties during the Great Expedition while still serving in the Imperium. Most of them were of Terran origin. After that, our reinforcements came from our hometown, Nass. Trom."

Sevita's voice suddenly became low upon mentioning this name.

"At that time, dozens of years have passed since the original body set foot on the surface of the planet for the last time. His admonition to the law has long since disappeared, because it is too far away from the rule of Imperium and there is no fear of punishment. The above human beings have fallen into a situation of regardless of the law and of natural morality...Do you know how this world poisoned their Legion? They used rapists and murderers to reorganize Legion, and they had already committed crimes as a child. The people who come to become their protectors! The original admonitions are nothing to them, and those words are nothing to most of the eighth Legion. They are murderers, and they have been promoted to superman, and they still have them at hand. The entire galaxy is treated as spoils of war."

This remark shocked Soshian.

In his subconscious mind, to be able to become Astarte, he must be a mortal selected by a hundred miles, even if he falls in the future.

"In the end, Primarch burned our hometown world out of anger and despair. He destroyed it, poured the firepower of the entire Legion fleet onto the planet, and let it fall apart in the sky."

Savita took a breath, deep and slow.

"This extinction, I am the direct executor, you know, for hours, the ship has been playing in a loop, playing audio from the surface of the planet, they are screaming, begging We let them ascend to the stars...but we never responded, not once. We watched our city burn in the universe quietly. In the end, we watched the planet fall apart under the anger of the fleet, and then left. , Nastrom turned into fragments and merged into the void."

"Did you stop the Primarch at the time?"

"I only obey the order, and I don’t want to see it again. , In my heart, will not be forever."

"He--"

Soshian for a moment.

"Why did he do this? Obviously there are other solutions? Is it difficult to change a conscription site..."

"You think it's incredible, right?"

Sevita looked at him with dark eyes, mocking on her face.

"The so-called original body is like this. After all, it is just a child, growing up in the body of God, but without understanding human nature. Their stunted spirit is in a state that no one can fully understand: this A moment is pure and warm, and the next moment is complicated and cruel."

Soshian was taken aback for a while.

"I thought...you respect him very much."

"This has nothing to do with respect. I just explain the fact that the Primarchs like to magnify their own misfortune, but Ignore the real suffering."

"Well, then."

"This has no effect."

Sevita continued:

"Legion had been poisoned at that time, and Nastrom’s venom was already abundant in Legion’s bloodline. Trust my statement about where I grew up. In the vast street warfare, life was cheap. It's not as good as a handful of dust. Perhaps the central city of Nastrom is somewhat human-like, but most of the planet is struggling with anarchy. The abandoned city that has become a wasteland falls into the hands of an army of scavengers, the strongest The candidates are often selected to join the eighth Legion, and they have also become Legendary."

When Saivita's smile disappeared, there was no smile in his eyes.

"Since then, everything is too late. The Primarch is struggling with his own fall. He hates himself, hates his life, and hates his own Legion... his only desire It is an opportunity to get back on track, so that his existence is not so useless."

"What opportunity?"

"Initiate a rebellion against the God Emperor, which is what you call It is the lie war of the Horus Rebellion."

"Just because of this?"

"Only because of this, we turned to confront Imperium...but We lost, so the people who were still alive fled. They ran to a place called Sargulasa, outside the border of Imperium, far from Terra’s star torch, but the Primarch is said to still claim that rays of light let him It's like a thorn in the eye."

"They?"

Soshian sensitively captured the details of the other party's words.

"Are you not with them?"

"I'm dead."

Prince the crows grinned, like a picture in the dark Haunted oil painting.

"——Death on Tyra’s city wall, or somewhere else, anyway, I am dead."

"Eh."

Soshian blinked, and he couldn't even understand this Imperium rebellion.

"But you now--"

"So isn't it obvious?"

Savita looked at Soshian with a foolish look .

"I don't want to play with them anymore."

"Don't you respect him very much?"

"I said, it has nothing to do with respect , You won’t understand. After that, the Primarch’s mind was full of madness. He didn’t care about the long war. For him, there was nothing better than bleeding the Imperium or proving this for his life. What happened, he had a foreboding of his death before he died, Soshian, can you understand it, this is the madness of a dying person, his life has been oppressed by this dark sign, and he can't correct it until he died. "

"Then what is the meaning of his madness?"

Soshian became more and more confused.

"Pillaging the corner of Imperium once every two centuries, and then slaughtering the entire world, this is of little value."

Savita uses his dull and waveless eyes Watching Soshian.

"In the rays of light of the star torch, it may indeed be meaningless, but the fall of the original body has swallowed him from the heart... he finally succumbed and became empty, I still remember him looked towards the solemnity of our time, my father was able to support both heaven and earth in our eyes at that time, but then I watched that he was accustomed to the disgusting smell, and became happy with those disgusting pictures, in his soul When it rots, only at certain nights can you see his sharp eyes and cold teeth... Some brothers asked me whether he has been contaminated by some external force, I can’t answer, and most people don’t care anymore. , After all, what can I do if I know? The result is the same."

"What happened to that assassination?"

Soshian suddenly asked, the reason for the eighth Legion The body was killed by the Assassin Court. This is not a secret, and it is also one of the main achievements of the Assassin Court to show off.

"This is what I want to mention. When his madness is clearly visible, the assassination will follow... I have never seen any creature so peaceful and happy about its destruction, only Death can allow him to prove his innocence."

Savita was deeply sighed.

"This answers your earliest question. In the original body in mind, those who violate the law should be executed the most violent and deadly, leaving an example for those with betrayers. The original body decided to lead by example. So he let us kill through the galaxy and violated every precept and law to the end. He knew that the God Emperor would prove this very well... In fact, he had foretold that assassin would come to kill himself, this Imperium law He decided not to struggle anymore."

The death of a Primarch could be so sloppy and careless, and Soshian was once again shocked by the weird story of the Eighth Legion.

"It's just a prophecy—"

"I saw his death, he got the innocence he wanted, and even felt relieved for the first time in many centuries. "

"The prophecy is not destined, even if it is destined, is it really to let it go? I can’t agree."

"Maybe."

Savita nodded.

"In this universe, there is no living thing more susceptible to life than my father. His life was fragmented by the pursuit of how to control mankind. His death proved the tragic end of our species."
