Chapter five hundred and twenty eight: Angron's old problem
Little did he know that the order had actually been tampered with by Horus secretly.
The Emperor's original intention was just to have someone capture him and put him in a vat on Terra. The actual situation did not involve his own heirs, and he did not intend to directly kill his own Magnus.
Faced with [Tzeentch]'s threat, after being silent for a while, he replied firmly:
"Even if I have to pay the price with my life, it is what I should pay for having made a big mistake."
[Tzeentch] smiled and asked directly: "You are very calm, so what should your heirs do?"
This time, Magnus, who was asked about his pain points, did not answer.
Because he didn't know how to refute the other party's remarks.
But Magnus didn’t intend to just agree to [Tzeentch]’s request.
Because he can clearly feel the malice contained in the other party's heart!
Magnus understood that if he and others just surrendered to each other, they might indeed be able to survive, but they would definitely pay a heavy price...
And if we really fall into that ending, the situation may not be much better than death...
Finally, after making some decisions.
As the Primarch, Magnus, among the three terrible garbage options of surrendering to a malicious foreign enemy, carrying out useless counterattacks, and dying calmly, chose the one that was relatively not the worst!
A calm death.
After making the decision, he first issued an order to the legions under his command not to counterattack.
Then, the defense facilities near the home star were directly closed.
Prepare to receive the Emperor's punishment like this.
Go to death with your last bit of dignity.
Finally, after some hesitation.
Magnus activated all nearby spaceships to allow those who wanted to leave to leave on their own.
He understood that even members of the [Legion of the Sons of Magnus] should be able to live well in a corner of the human empire as long as they do not raise an excessive profile after leaving.
This is also a way of survival that Magnus left for his descendants...
And faced his orders.
The soldiers under Magnus, after experiencing the initial shock and disbelief.
Immediately, many people started to get excited!
They couldn't believe that because of a so-called big mistake, they, a group of soldiers who had fought for the Human Empire all their lives and made countless achievements, had to face the end of either leaving their homes and running away anonymously, or directly dying.
So, many people immediately decided to organize a counterattack on their own!
They are preparing to fight back the [Space Wolves Legion], [Force Custodes], and [Sisters of Silence] who came to perform the mission!
And their actions have been directly supported by many people.
Face this situation.
Magnus, on the other hand, sighed and locked himself in confinement.
Not too much interference.
He knew very well that those actions were all in vain.
The opponent this time is different from the past.
The other party has a congenital tendency to restrain himself and others...
--------
at the same time.
With the will of Orshika.
Lorgar Aurelion has now approached Angron Tarc, who is in charge of the [World Eaters Legion].
He knew very well that this was a candidate he could win over.
After all, of all the Primarchs, Angron and the Emperor were the ones who suffered the most.
In this regard, even Luo Jia, who experienced the "Perfect City" incident, is far behind him!
Therefore, even in normal times, all Primarchs have a common understanding!
That is, it would be extremely normal for Angron to take the lead in rebelling against the Emperor at any time!
And faced with Luo Jia who came to find him.
At the beginning, Angron was actually very unwelcome in his heart, even a little disgusted!
To put it bluntly, a guy like him who has a deep hatred for the Emperor will not have any good impressions of a guy who fanatically worships the Emperor!
Until, he heard some unexpected words from Luo Jia.
"I want to destroy the Empire of Man and the Emperor!"
Only then did he slightly change his attitude.
But even so, Angron still doubted Luo Jia's true purpose.
You know, he was deeply impressed by the other party's fanatical worship of the emperor!
This directly led to the fact that even though Luo Jia was making wild claims, Angron was still a little uncertain as to whether the other party wanted to plot against him.
For example: first induce oneself to rebel, and then sell oneself to the emperor, trying to gain favor from the emperor with the attitude of a meritorious minister?
This extremely possible bad situation made Angron's face full of doubt when faced with Luojia's boastful remarks.
So much so that he only listened to a small part of what the other party said.
As for the so-called "[Chaos God] is the true god", he just thought Luo Jia was farting.
I feel that the religious lunatic in front of me has completely gone crazy!
Just when he was thinking about whether to believe Luo Jia, a sharp pain like a cramp and peeling skin suddenly appeared in his body!
That's the effect of [Butcher's Nail].
Whenever he thinks about something, he will feel unparalleled pain, which may even make him lose his mind and attack everyone around him!
Due to this factor, Angron was rarely completely awake, and most of the time he was in a state of confusion.
It is precisely because of this that he never started a rebellion and still stayed under the emperor's command with full of resentment.
To put it bluntly, in this state, there was no way he could carry out any planned rebellion.
And if you mess around directly, you will only be suppressed by the emperor and become a joke...
Looking at Angron, whose expression was gradually becoming ferocious and his face becoming distorted little by little, Luo Jia, who had just finished speaking, immediately understood that the other man's old habit had relapsed.
Without hesitation, he directly injected a large amount of spiritual energy into Angron's body!
He forcibly maintained the opponent's state.
He doesn't want to wait for the other party to go completely crazy and then spend a lot of effort to control the other party!
that's all.
It took more than ten minutes for Angron to regain his composure again.
However, after he woke up from the severe pain, when he looked at Luo Jia in front of him, he was slightly stunned for no reason!
Just when Luo Jia was a little confused as to why the other party had such a reaction.
After being silent for a while, Angron said slowly and seriously:
"...What did you come to see me for? Let me say it again..."
Luo Jia: "..."
Angron’s confidant next to him: “…”
Everyone was speechless.
Like intermittent madness, this was one of Angron's old problems.
The specific reason is that when the slave owner implanted the "Butcher's Nail", part of his brain was cut off.
This caused Angron's memory to become confused at certain times.
