The pink-purple spiritual energy of the power of chaos collided with the scarlet aura of the sea of blood of the corpse mountain. The resulting explosion penetrated the walls and buildings with isolation effects, and shrouded the Terra Palace across the Eurasian continent.
The new emperor, who had gathered the power of the gods, and the Spartan Primarch, who inherited the war spear of the God of War, were at odds with each other, and it was impossible to decide the winner in a short period of time.
Fortunately, the hall and palace where the Golden Throne is located are strong enough to withstand direct strikes from the fleet's artillery. Otherwise, at the beginning of the confrontation between the two giants, the hall and palace would have been annihilated by the aftermath of psychic shock, explosions and concussions.
Finally, after the duel between the two sides lasted for about half a minute, the evenly matched situation gradually changed, and the balance of victory gradually tilted towards Horus.
Whether it was physical strength or spiritual energy, Horus, who was blessed and blessed by all the evil gods, was definitely superior. Only in terms of skill in using the weapons at hand, John was stronger than Horus.
After all, the style of John's Spartan legion is very consistent with the ancient Greek city-state of Sparta, which highly advocates martial arts, so Horus has nothing to do with John for the time being.
"Hahahaha!" But Horus laughed instead of being angry, and he began to appreciate his "brother" who was highly skilled in martial arts and decisive in his actions more and more.
Immediately afterwards, Horus held up the World Breaker with his right hand and struck down with faster speed and stronger force. It seemed that he was preparing to break the World Breaker with one force.
"..."
Sensing the attack of a war hammer that even he could not see clearly, John remained calm and stepped back with his fighting instinct. At the same time, he held the Spear of Terror in front of him with both hands and raised it upward to block.
"Zheng!
!" Metal tip Xiao.
"boom!
!" The whole palace was shaking violently.
It turned out that John successfully blocked the war hammer with his war spear, but the strong force from Horus made John's whole body sink. Finally, a low pit instantly formed where John was standing, and the gold-inlaid floor tiles continued to collapse in all directions.
,roll.
Fortunately, this place has a special structure and is blessed by the spiritual energy released by the Golden Throne. If the force just now was applied to a normal hive world or a colonial urban area, countless buildings would be "shattered" and collapsed.
“Chi!
"The hammer blade and the spear shaft riveted against each other, emitting dazzling metallic sparks.
Horus, holding a hammer in one hand, easily suppressed John, who was holding a spear in both hands, and still patiently persuaded him to surrender: "I'll give you one last chance to help me, assist the empire, and serve as the war commander to sweep away all odds."
However, as soon as Horus finished his words of persuasion to surrender, a deliberately understated tone came from the throne room, and it was John's very familiar voice. All he heard was:
"Help you son of a bitch? Ha!? Do you have a brain bubble? Oh... no, I shouldn't use questions, but affirmative sentences. You do have a brain bubble!"
Hearing this, Horus was about to turn around and look at the gate where the sound came from, but he heard again...
"Winter! Winter!" When the giant ran, it caused an earthquake-like movement.
“Buzz! Buzz!
"The "sweet" sound of the chain sword's chain rotating at high speed was also heard.
!
Realizing that another Primarch seemed to be attacking him, Horus ignored the focus on suppressing John and quickly raised the power claw of his left hand to block the approaching chainsword.
“Buzz!
!”
The pale red lightning that danced between the power claws clashed with the invisible decomposition of the chain sword.
The attacker was none other than Rogge, one of the ten original members of Umbrella.
Rogge clenched the Storm Fang with both hands and aimed at Horus' neck to chop it off. Although the blow was offset by Horus' power claws, it also successfully reduced John's pressure.
Therefore, the Spartan Primarch, who is best at seizing opportunities to counterattack, naturally could not miss the gap created by his brothers. He struggled to push away the Worldbreaker's war hammer, and reversed his right hand to let go of the Spear of Terror, which was originally in a defensive posture.
, violently stabbed Horus in the chest.
"boom!
!" The tip of the spear flashing with scarlet blood was blocked by the psychic barrier.
But if you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find that the spear tip is moving forward steadily, and it will not take long before it can penetrate the barrier and touch Horus' breastplate.
!
Seeing this, Horus didn't have time to think about anything and waved the Worldbreaker, first forcing away the more threatening John, then using the power claw to drive away the Storm Fang, and then waved the tip of the claw, making Rogge mistakenly think that it wanted to attack.
But in fact, I took advantage of this to distance myself.
After breaking away from the siege of the two Umbrella originals, Horus's demeanor changed from relaxed at first to a little solemn.
One on one, it's no problem.
But one against two, we can no longer face it with the mentality of persuading them to surrender, otherwise they will definitely be injured and even die...
Through the brief exchange before, Horus instantly judged that Rogge was a lower threat than John. Moreover, it believed that one versus two was more than enough. It just wanted to capture John and Rogge, so it would be more tiring and laborious to capture John and Rogge alive.
Keep distance.
Confront each other.
Rogge glanced at John, who was standing not far from his right shoulder, with his peripheral vision. After confirming that his brother was okay, he focused all his attention on Horus again and joked: "Brother, are you suffering from something?"
The new emperor blessed by God? Why is it so difficult in actual combat?"
"Rogal Dorn..." Horus said with a trace of disgust on his face: "No matter which universe you are in, your mouth will always be so annoying."
"Hahaha!" Rogge also laughed loudly, shook his head, and said: "Sometimes, like now, in addition to wanting to disgust you, I also want to make you take the bait, so bad."
Take the bait?
Just when Horus frowned and was about to understand what Roge meant, a black shadow suddenly appeared "out of thin air" behind it.
"stop!
"
Moreover, a pair of sharp claws that were similar to the spear tips of the Spear of Fear and also shone with blood-red light whizzed towards Horus' neck.
!
!
The death threat caused Horus to dodge instinctively. Unfortunately, the black shadow was faster. A pair of sharp claws had already touched its psychic barrier. Even though the sharp claws could not tear open the barrier, they still completely destroyed its "human" body.
Trapped in place.
And this black shadow is Corax who used his own exclusive armor and special psychic powers to sneak into the throne room with Rogge.
In fact, it stands to reason that Rogge and Corax made faster progress than John, but they were not as lucky as John and were the first to find Horus and the human emperor sitting on the golden throne.
However, when they sensed the movement caused by the confrontation between John and Horus, they knew that their brother was in a bad situation, so they left their respective guards behind and rushed to help.
Rogge did not use an overly perverted nano-pistol, mainly out of "respect". In addition, Horus's psychic power was too exaggerated, so there was a certain chance that the nano-bugs would be ineffective.
Now, with the Crow King using his favorite weapon, the Scarlet Claw, to contain him, Horus could only continue to release psychic energy, maintain the barrier, and try to use psychic shock to prepare to knock Corax away behind him.
But John and Rogge would not give Horus time to counterattack. One on the left and one on the right, they would use their Fear Spear and Storm Fang respectively to stab or slash, regardless of any "one-on-one weapons".
"Germany" and "One-on-One Principle", cooperate with Corax to besiege Horus on three sides.
"Get out of my way!
"
Horus roared his filial piety, bursting out powerful psychic energy in an attempt to knock away the three primarchs.
But John, Rogge and Corax were not in vain, they all released the pure spiritual energy contained in their bodies to fight against it.
The four strands of spiritual energy collided and clashed with each other, reaching a deadlock for a while, with no one able to defeat the other.
The fact that Horus single-handedly fought against the three Umbrella Primarchs was enough to stand out from the crowd and have the capital to boast and be conceited, because apart from him, the Primarchs of Universe 03 could not compete with John, Rogge and the others.
They all ended up being killed instantly, and no one could last more than ten seconds.
On the other hand, Horus was not at a disadvantage in a one-on-three fight. He was indeed the strongest opponent that the Umbrella Primarchs had encountered so far. He would definitely be among the best, or even the first, in the multiverse.
Through the comparison before and after the Horus Heresy, we can know that obtaining the blessing, attention and mercy of a group of evil gods is indeed a fatal temptation for those who seek incomparable power and absolute power.
Just when the four Primarchs are at par with each other...
"Death to the traitor!"
Angron also arrived in the throne room and joined the battle with a roar, wielding the double ax named "Loyalty" and "Glory", constantly smashing Horus' psychic barrier.
"boom!
boom!
"Every hit caused the barrier to produce a dazzling light.
At the same time, Sanguinius from the main universe also followed Angron here, but he did not choose to use the Spear of Bigon to start a melee battle. Instead, he took off his hunting bow and pointed it towards Horus.
Take a bow and shoot an arrow.
"stop!
"The psychic arrow missed the bowstring and turned into a golden trajectory, hitting the barrier on Horus's chest.
"boom!
"The arrow was unable to maintain its shape and exploded, and the golden light group quickly swept around with Horus as the center.
In an instant, gold filled the entire throne room. When the aftermath dissipated, the loss of the golden arrow containing pure spiritual energy was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, completely rendering Horus's spiritual barrier ineffective.
The twin ax blades, high-speed chains, bloody claws and bloody spear points that were originally stuck in the air and competing were no longer obstructed and immediately continued to move forward.
Now that the psychic barrier is gone, what can we do to stop the four magical weapons?
As for the defensive stance generated by the stomach?
Totally impossible.
"Stab it!
"A stomach and body were opened.
“Pfft!
"The smelly, putrid liquid spurted out.
"Well!
” and Horus howled in agony.
At this moment, the left shoulder and left arm of the new human emperor were severed by double axes, the carapace, stomach and back of the neck were smashed by bloody claws, the plastron and abdomen were smashed to pieces by high-speed chains, and the organs and intestines
Directly exposed to the air, and the more fatal one was the penetrating injury to the left chest...
The bloody spear tip penetrated the armor, skin, and injured the heart and lungs.
"Pfft!" Horus couldn't bear it anymore and opened his mouth to cough out blood.
But these injuries were not enough to kill it immediately, so Horus tried his best to use his remaining right hand to wield the Worldbreaker warhammer, trying to push back the four original bodies surrounding him.
But among the five primarchs, John, Rogge, Corax, Angron, and Sanguinius standing in the distance, none of them was a good old man with excessive compassion and mercy.
Take advantage of its illness and kill it.
The five primarchs and the other five brothers would not talk about martial ethics with the enemy.
When talking about martial ethics, it is better to talk about the results. So John and the others saw that Horus was at the end of his battle, so they launched another encirclement and suppression campaign.
After a burst of afterimages and an explosion of golden light...
The severed head of an unknown person rolled in the air. When it landed on the ground, it made a sound of "Dongdong! Dong...". It rolled a few more times and finally became motionless.
As for the head of Horus that fell to the ground, its face happened to see the huge body without its head, swaying backwards and forwards and collapsing backwards.
The red blood streaks all over the whites of his eyes are gradually fading away as if due to the rapid passing of life, returning to a flawless appearance that has not been bewitched by evil gods or corroded by chaos.
Immediately afterwards, Horus's eyes revealed the light of endless regret and self-blame. It should be that the power of chaos dissipated, causing "him" to see various memories in his mind before he died.
It's a pity that even if "he" knows how wrong his actions are, he can't do anything about it. The most he can do is to die as an apology.
"Shua----!"
However, when Horus was about to close his eyes and sleep, "he" saw the "human being" who had completed teleportation, wore black gold armor, and carried a long sword at his waist, gradually approaching, approaching, and then stopping.
Move your eyes upward.
Seeing clearly that the "man" seemed to be the master of mankind in the universe, Horus also heard the other person say: "Child, the past cannot be changed, but the future cannot be changed, because the future is created by our hands. First,
Have a good sleep."
For some reason, these words made Horus feel the warmth and forgiveness he had not seen for a long time, and also made "him" completely give up everything, slowly close his eyes, and calmly accept the fate of death.
at this time.
In the throne hall, which was in chaos and even collapsed, with several load-bearing pillars tilted, only the five primarchs of the universe and their father, Sui Bian, were left.
"..."
Looking down at the lifeless head, Sui Bian's twin children flashed with a dull golden light, successfully finding the soul of Horus from another space and protecting it from the continued intrusion of evil gods and demons.
After completing the "normal" operation, Sui Bian's twin boys returned to their original state. However, he did not rush to recover Horus' body. Instead, he turned to face the human emperor who was sitting on the golden throne and did not react or move during the whole process.
And the system, which had been silent for three months, said coldly in his mind after he completed the "redemption" of Horus' soul:
[It has been detected that the five original bodies under the host jointly killed Horus Luperkar. Therefore, this system determines that the host has completed the task. The rewards that have been issued are as follows:
2 Obtain the right to open and close the vortex space door.
Three gets 400,000 (400,000) points.
4. Obtain the complete technology to create the original body and Astartes.
5. Obtain the special skill of "Absolute Blessing".
Note:
The mission reward "Once you obtain all the psychic powers of the original human emperor" requires the host to try to communicate with the human emperor sitting on the golden throne.】
?
Communicate?
After hearing what the system said clearly, Sui Bian looked at the human emperor and couldn't help but frown and fell into a brief silence.
