Because the holographic image generated in the conference room had a tangible sense of touch, Rogge's action and force of tapping his shoulder were instantly transmitted to John who was tens of thousands of light years away.
However, the strength of the holographic image was far from the actual strength of the original body, so John was too lazy to pay attention to his brother's rude behavior.
"In that case..." After listening to John's suggestion, Corax turned his head slightly and looked at Leon and said: "Warmaster, the new Primarch Anakin and Volcan are still accompanying the Man-Eating Shark Battalion.
Those two little brothers have no real military power, and only a battalion of the Traitors is willing to cooperate. Why not let Horus pick up the two little brothers and the man-eating shark battalion before joining us, and then accompany us to launch the raid?
.
With me, John, Horus and the two of them, even if we encounter the siege of the Court of the Dead, even if we lose, we will be able to escape unscathed and avoid excessive losses to the main force of the legion."
"Well, what you said makes sense."
Corax's words of "Warmaster" immediately satisfied Leon's vanity. In addition, there was nothing wrong with the two brothers' proposals, and he immediately said formally:
"Just do what you said, and then I will write a detailed and formal order to give enough attention to the group of freshmen... brothers.
Okay, let’s get busy first.”
After saying that, Leon was still the first to dissipate the holographic image.
"Hey, I envy you two." Rogge sighed in a feigned displeasure, and then terminated the imaging communication.
"See you later." John said goodbye briefly.
Finally, the holographic blue light particles dispersed in the conference room, and everything returned to calm.
Looking around the empty conference room, Corax did not leave in a hurry, but sat in the main seat and fell into silence and contemplation.
His fair and handsome face was as indifferent as usual, but there seemed to be a trace of... deep in his eyes...
Blame yourself?
Yes, the four primarchs who participated in this meeting, including him, were all "blood" brothers who followed their father in his conquests when mankind had not yet entered the interstellar era and the human empire was far away.
During the period of stabilizing the situation in Morning Star, Corax learned a lot of information about the Zero Three Necrons through Trazin and after deciphering Xerath's memory storage device.
However, he also had selfish motives. He first shared the information with Leon alone, instead of sharing it with several brothers who participated in the expedition after receiving the information.
The reason for sending it to Leon separately is very simple. First, it is more in line with the rules.
Although wartime rules will be flexibly changed according to the actual situation, there is no rule that after obtaining information, you must first inform the war commander separately, but "need" to inform the war commander first.
This word "need" has a lot of room for manipulation.
Second, at first, he didn't want the new Primarch to know more details.
However, as the meeting progressed and John taught him a lesson, Corax realized that what he was doing was actually deepening the gap between the elders and the new Primarch.
“…”
Thinking of this, Corax sighed calmly.
Then, he moved his gaze to the right.
There is a floor-to-ceiling window on the left side of the conference room, which is the direction where Corax is looking, and outside the window is the "sunny" inner earth world.
Looking at the artificial stars and the blue ocean "opposite", Corax suddenly felt that everything was very "unrealistic".
More than two hundred years have passed...
At that time, in order to gain the admiration and reward from his father like Robert, he made a bold decision, which was to rush directly into the body of the Blood Demon Griffin from his mouth, and disembowelled the demon.
Out of the heart.
It was his bold decision that earned him his father's praise and the bloody claws given by his father.
The magic weapon was won by them.
But those new primarchs have had gorgeous armor and exquisite weapons since they were born, and they have everything they need.
Corax was definitely the one with the better temper among the originals, but he could not avoid feeling jealous and unhappy, but he, or most of his brothers, could not express it "directly" like Leon.
And in front of their father, all the primarchs invariably showed "joyfulness".
It was precisely this time that his father left the physical universe and his supervision of the physical universe was "insufficient", which led to him and the older generation of Primarchs being too lazy to deal with the new Primarchs properly.
Thanks to the reminder from his second brother John, Corax woke up in an instant.
Not necessary.
Different eras, different backgrounds, different lives. It’s just that Umbrella’s biotechnology has extended the life span of all people infinitely. Disease and death seem to have become a thing of the past, and the life span of their original body is far beyond imagination.
And the time in the physical universe made them gradually forget their original belief that they were fighting for their father, who hoped that everyone would be free from cholera.
So, didn't they go through that difficult period just so that those who come after them don't have to suffer anymore?
Thinking room.
Corax stood up and left his seat, and came behind the floor-to-ceiling window. Unknowingly, he imitated his father's habitual movement of putting his hands behind his back, and looked at the scenery of the inner world.
Shining light, forest, grassland, ocean...
Wait, everything can be "reverse", and the white clouds can be under the grass, otherwise it won't feel unreal.
If the scenes here were photographed and "sent back" to the society more than two hundred years ago, there would be people on the Internet saying "This is simply the Garden of Eden!", "Is this paradise?!", "Heaven! Heaven!"
Words like that.
To the humans of that period, wasn’t the Shield World a place where “gods” lived?
However, since the publication of "Human Truth" written by his father, human beings no longer have much respect for the so-called "gods", let alone fear...
Just like the new primarchs at this stage, although they still attracted much attention from the moment they appeared in the public eye, it was not like they came from behind the scenes to the stage and caused a sensation in the entire society.
When his father was still the speaker and chairman of the board of directors, even if Empress Bai was there to monitor and control, there were still many people who made up and wrote the stories behind his father and them.
What about "In fact, the chairman is God", "The chairman and his descendants correspond to the Greek gods!", or "The chairman has been accompanying mankind as early as the birth of mankind" and so on.
To be honest, when he sees those comments on the Internet, or when he travels and is worshiped by people, it is false that Corax feels unsatisfied and vain.
Otherwise, those popes and presiding officers would be extremely greedy for their own power. After all, this feeling is indeed "wonderful".
However, due to their father's teachings, Corax and his brothers didn't pay much attention to this.
Time has passed, and with the establishment of the Human Empire, people have gradually become familiar with the original body. After the Astartes, Corax prefers that when children see him, they will say "Mom! It's the original body! So majestic, I will definitely do it in the future"
Become an Astartes!".
The awe is still there, but it is not awe of gods and ghosts, but a yearning and self-improvement from the heart.
“…”
The corners of Corax's mouth rose involuntarily, but the joyful expression was fleeting and soon returned to a cold expression.
The war between humans and the undead is not over yet. Even though it is time for him to repair the Raven Guard, he cannot relax too much.
Shaking his head, Corax stopped admiring the scenery of the inner earth world, turned around and walked outside.
Qi~shua...
As the automatic door opened and closed, the conference room fell into silence again, but the warm "sunlight" emitted by the artificial star spilled into the conference room through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The screen changes.
It is also the exclusive conference room for the original body, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is also the inner earth world of the shield world.
It's just that the scenery outside the window is not sunny, but cloudy, with a slanting wind and drizzle, and dense water droplets are constantly sliding down the window.
The position that stabilizes and binds the artificial star blocks the light to less than ten percent of "daylight" according to the automatic program. At the same time, the automatic simulation program of the inner earth world is also one of the reasons for the rainy scene.
After all, the inner earth world is not a planet in the true sense. If you want vegetation to grow more robustly, you must naturally simulate the weather and seasonal changes on the planet's surface.
Moreover, changes in the environment will also allow people living in the inner earth world to maintain a healthy mentality. If the environment remains unchanged, it will make people feel boring and depressed.
However, the drizzle outside the window at this moment can actually bring out the mood of the original body standing in the conference room.
After wearing the scales of the python, Horus, who was already five meters tall and had neat short hair, was holding his left elbow with his right hand, while his left hand was gently pinching his chin while looking out the window in deep thought.
As a new primarch, Horus was stronger, bigger, and stronger than his counterparts in Universe 03. Of course, his hair was also retained, not the bald one he had when he was corrupted by Chaos.
Although his face is not as handsome as Sanguinius or Fulgrim, he is still considered to be above average among the Primarchs, at least much better than Russ.
No wonder the older generation of Primarchs are jealous. Horus and other new Primarchs have only grown up, and they already have shield worlds to serve as flagships. It would be a blessing for the older generation of Primarchs to have a Goshawk-class frigate after they reach adulthood. After all, mankind is the first
During the first space naval battle, there were only three frigates in total.
But at this moment, Horus looked slightly sad.
Because not long ago, Warmaster Leon had a separate conversation with him in the conference room, saying that he would lead his elite troops to the Morning Star Domain, join Sparta and the main force of the Raven Guard Legion, and first fight against the Devourers on the way.
Meet up at the Shark Camp.
As for the target of the operation, it was to jointly raid the Palace of the Dead, which was suspected of having a brilliant star map. Since this operation was considered semi-public internally, he was not allowed to reveal any details to Fulgrim and others.
After ending the holographic communication, Horus, like Corax, stayed alone in the conference room and meditated.
As a Primarch, he understood that this was a friendly signal sent by the older generation of Primarchs.
In fact, Horus had an encounter with Leon as early as his teenage years, and Leon rode a griffon and rushed into the dark space with his father's sword in hand, driving back Slaanesh and Tzeentch, saving him from danger.
But he was still "little" at that time, so as Leon, as the elder brother, he would naturally give in a little more.
Now, when it comes to the interests between legions and legions, as well as the star regions, space regions and universes under their respective jurisdictions, Horus has experienced the dangers of society "again".
Being of the same type, he was worried that mortals would stand on top of their Primarch, the Astartes. He was even afraid that after the expedition was over, Emperor Zero Three would purge their Primarch, the Astartes, just like he did with the Thunder Warriors.
To clear it up.
After regaining his life, although he no longer had those memories and no longer had to worry about being stepped on by mortals, politics would always be disgusting.
Feel a little emotional for a moment.
Horus gathered his thoughts and turned around to leave the conference room.
?
However, when he came to the corridor outside, he saw someone who had been waiting outside for a long time.
"Wanda." Horus called the person and continued walking outside.
But it seemed that because the man was far different in height from him, Horus deliberately slowed down his pace so that the man could keep up.
And the person whom Horus calls "Wanda" is none other than the human from Universe 05, Wanda Maximoff.
When the main universe conquered the zero-five universe, Horus, the Devouring Shark, and the Archon Battalion of the Ultramarines served as vanguards, and when he single-handedly destroyed Hydra, he accidentally saved Wanda.
, and Wanda’s twin brother Pietro Maximov.
Later, when the Luna Wolves completely broke away from Sparta and officially formed an army, with Horus as the commander-in-chief, Wanda also forced her brother Pietro to join the Luna Wolves.
However, even after undergoing a certain degree of transformation surgery, the Scarlet Witch is "only" a little over two meters tall.
For civilians, they are high-altitude people, but they are still "short" in front of the original body, not to mention that Wanda does not wear any power armor with amplifying effects.
I saw Wanda following Horus on the left side, just like the name of the Scarlet Witch, wearing a slim-fitting dark red robe and having long golden brown hair shawl.
"What, are you worried?" she asked with a slight smile.
"What can there be?"
Horus shook his head slightly again, then walked around the corner of the corridor with Wanda, then took the elevator to the first floor of the office building, and then continued to respond:
"It's not enough to disturb my mood. I just hope I can take this opportunity to get closer to the brothers."
"Involving the relationship?" Wanda was puzzled.
"right."
Horus nodded lightly, walked out of the elevator with Wanda, and came to the empty lobby on the first floor. He turned around and looked down at Wanda, who was much shorter than him, and gave a brief explanation and question:
"Next, I will only lead Gastalin and the 1st Battalion to participate in a mission. Will you also go with me?"
"Of course." Although Wanda had no way of knowing the content of the task, she still happily accepted it and smiled: "The Necrons can suppress and disperse psychic energy, but they can't suppress my magic. With me here, at least I can help.
Fuck you.
As for Pietro, just stay on the Vengeful Spirit, he doesn’t like to travel anyway, and he can also assist the Legion in quickly transferring people."
"haha, yes."
Seeing this, Horus also smiled, and then directly opened the teleportation device of the Python Scale and took him and Wanda out of the hall on the first floor.
