Madam, You Wouldn't Want Anything to Happen to the Children, Would You?
Qin Yun shared the Primaris technology he had acquired with Dante.
This would allow him to use the technology to quickly restore the numbers of those Chapter so they could serve the Imperium again.
The losses from the Battle of Baal were too great; eight Chapter were completely wiped out, and many Chapter were left with only one or two soldiers, making reconstruction difficult.
The only solution is to replenish them with the warriors who were previously crafted using the Gene-Seed of the Blood Angels and upgraded using the Primaris.
Only by further popularizing Primaris technology can those Chapter that suffered heavy casualties be rebuilt.
"The Primaris technology was Archmagos Dominus Belisarius Cawl over ten thousand years, combining the Emperor's original Astartes technology with the knowledge of the Primogenitor."
"It will give you greater strength, faster speed, more resilient life, and more lethal force."
"It's not just the Blood Angels that will be Primaris; other Chapter will also push for Primaris. The current Imperial Regent, Roboute Guilliman, the Primarch of the Ultramarines, wants to use this technology to win back the Milky Way for humanity."
To allay Dante's concerns about the Primaris technique
Qin Yun also brought Dante to the Imperial Glory so that he could communicate with Terra.
When Guilliman appeared in the projection against the backdrop of Terra, Dante's face showed a look of shock.
The Living Saint and the Primarch possessed such advanced technology that they could communicate in real time without relying on the Warp.
Dante, having experienced countless battles, deeply understood the importance of communication in warfare.
If Baal had mastered this communication technology, the Blood Angels would certainly not have been unilaterally crushed by Tyranid.
"You always surprise me, Living Saint, your diligence puts me to shame."
"You not only reversed the decline of the Calixis Sector, but also saved Baal."
"While you're doing all this, I'm wasting my time with those damn bureaucrats."
Guilliman's words were humorous and witty, completely unlike those of a serious leader.
This eased Dante's tension considerably.
He had met Roboute Guilliman before, but that was in Macragge, where Guilliman was placed in Stasis Field and was very close to death.
"Everyone has their own responsibilities, Regent. Your responsibility is to maintain the Imperium as much as possible, while my responsibility is to find ways to make the Imperium better."
"If it weren't for you wasting your time dealing with those bureaucrats, the Imperium would probably have already fallen apart, and how could I have remained unscathed?"
Qin Yun smiled and spoke in a relaxed tone.
"Hahaha." Guilliman laughed. "Living Saint, you always find a way to comfort me."
"That's true. Now, please allow me to introduce you to an important person."
Qin Yun slightly stepped aside, gesturing for Dante to walk in front of the projector so that the device could capture his image and transmit it to the other end of the communication.
"This is Dante, the Chapter Master of the Blood Angels. They have just experienced a fierce battle and defended their home world with their Dreadnought sacrifice," Qin Yun introduced.
Guilliman looked at Dante. "I heard that in the Battle of Baal, you defeated the tentacles of the Leviathan Zerg fleet and won the victory. This is one of the few pieces of good news for the Imperium."
"Dante, you have done a great job. The Emperor and Sanguinius will be proud of you, and countless citizens of the Imperium will remember your sacrifices."
"It is what we should do, Primarch." Dante Primarch, his tone humble.
"Don't stand on ceremony with me. Although I'm in Terra, I've learned about the entire campaign through the Living Saint. No one has done a better job than you," Guilliman said.
"Baal will rebuild and become a better world. When that happens, the Beacon Network will bind it firmly to Terra. Then we can unite all forces to fight against Chaos."
"I would love to see that future, Regent," Dante said. "The main purpose of this communication is to inquire about the Primaris Space Marine."
Guilliman said, "The Primaris technology was improved by Belisarius Cawl, making it stronger and more suitable for today's battlefield."
"After the Great Rift unfolded, the power of the Chaos Gods was enhanced like never before, as were the minions of Chaos. If we continue to cling to the old ways and refuse to make changes, then the future of humanity will be shrouded in darkness, without a glimmer of light."
"..."
Guilliman, with his exceptional oratory skills, persuaded Dante to accept the Primaris technique.
After the communication ended, Dante returned to the Angel's Fortress, which was under reconstruction.
Send someone to notify the surviving Chapter to send representatives to the meeting.
At the meeting, Dante, as always, wore golden armor.
Once the representatives sat down, he laid out the whole story.
The representatives were informed that the Primaris technology would be used to rebuild the various Chapter.
This incident has drawn criticism.
The representative of the Angels Sanguine Chapter spoke first.
"Lord of the Blood Angels, I want to know if this has crossed the line. Astartes is a gift bestowed upon us by the Emperor."
"If Guilliman dares to interfere with the Emperor's work, what if he goes even further?"
These words sparked whispers.
It must be said that this is indeed a very dangerous thing.
Guilliman is the only Primarch still alive; his prestige and power are unmatched and unchallenged.
If the other side attempts to gradually undermine the Emperor's foundation, and then chooses to become emperor themselves when the time is right, who can stop them?
"This claim is nonsense. Our Primarch would never support Guilliman becoming emperor."
Seth interrupted the discussion.
"In a sense, Living Saint are not ours..."
Before the representative could finish speaking, Seth interrupted him with a cold gaze.
The Flesh Tearers Chapter held Chain Axe in his hand.
Clearly, if the other party dared to utter even the slightest disrespectful word, he wouldn't hesitate to teach them a lesson on the spot.
"The Living Saint is our Primarch. If you had seen the Blood Knights Chapter to the death, you wouldn't doubt my words."
"Living Saint are our Redemption and our hope."
Seth led the Flesh Tearers Chapter and Blood Knights Chapter to garrison Baal Secundus.
When Ka'Bandha arrived, they nearly lost themselves in their rage.
It was the relics of Sanguinius that saved them.
The Blood Knights Chapter were not so lucky.
They were all corrupted, and only by relying on their last bit of willpower did they charge against the demons and avoid becoming slaves to the evil gods.
Seth will never forget that scene.
Black Rage and Red Thirst will strike again and again. Without the help of Living Saint, the dark fate of the Bloodline of Sanguinius will irreversibly fall upon each and every one of them.
"Now, you have a chance. If you want to oppose the Living Saint, then stand up." Seth looked around at everyone. "I will have a one-on-one duel with him to the death."
A silence fell over the meeting room; no one was willing to duel with their own brothers over such a matter.
Seeing that no one stepped forward, Seth smiled.
"In that case, don't say those kinds of things again."
"Even the Codex Astartes never said that the Blood Angels have only one Primarch."
At this moment, Dante spoke.
"Since no one objects, let's start discussing how to promote the Primaris and how to receive aid from Terra."
"We will rebuild the Blood Legion, restore the glory of the Archangel, and let the name of the Living Saint be sung in every corner of the Milky Way."
Imperial Glory
Qin Yun did not leave the ship with Dante, but returned to the control room to check his rewards.
[Limited-Time Mission: Assist the Blood Angels Chapter in resisting the Leviathan Fleet (Completed)]
[Faith Points rewards have been distributed; please go to the Chapel of Prayers to claim your equipment rewards.]
Qin Yun was just about to head to the Chapel of Prayers to collect his equipment reward when...
A new golden light curtain appeared.
Congratulations on gaining experience!
LV17->LV18
Skill Acquired: Combat Focus
Once in this state, the host's attention will be highly focused on the battle, keenly perceiving every detail of the fight, and combined with precognitive abilities, will unleash terrifying combat power.
Skill acquired: Multi-threading
Once in this state, the host can handle multiple complex tasks simultaneously. If applied to areas such as government affairs or commanding battles, it will play an unexpected role.
Skill Acquisition: Spatial Mastery
It can distort spatial dimensions to conceal its form and launch attacks, and has multiple uses, but it requires development by the user.
"This is going to turn me into an all-rounder who can both fight and farm!!"
"Damn it, Emperor, you're not thinking of taking advantage of a sheep, are you? You'll go bald."
When Qin Yun saw the new skill he had acquired, his heart skipped a beat, and he knew something was wrong.
This skill combination... it looks like they're destined for a life of hard labor!
Only the later skills are decent.
When the time comes, I'll put on a Storage Ring to cosplay as Doctor Strange and run around in circles.
As Qin Yun was pondering where to get a cape like the one worn by Doctor Strange, an important question suddenly occurred to him.
So, who's more powerful, Tzeentch or Doctor Strange?
How does Tzeentch compare to Scarlet Witch?
After some thought, Qin Yun had to come to a helpless conclusion.
These two heroes, who focus on magic, would definitely lose everything if they faced a villain like Tzeentch.
He might even be stuffed into a cream puff and sit at the same table as Magnus.
Because Tzeentch has no weaknesses, while Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch have a ton of weaknesses!
The thought of Tzeentch holding Scarlet Witch's two children and sneering coldly filled the mind.
"Madam, you don't want anything to happen to the child, do you?!"
Qin Yun didn't dare to think about what might happen next.
If it were Slaanesh instead, it would be even more terrifying.
Just as Qin Yun was wondering what it would be like for Scarlet Witch to be subjected to Slaanesh and manipulation by Slaanesh,
A new light screen appeared in front of him.
[You have reached level 18, meeting the requirements for the Second Awakening.]
"Second Awakening?"
Qin Yun recalled what Ollanius Pius Persson, the Emperor's first Warmaster, had said when he last entered the City of Dust.
They said they'd give me something in advance; could it be the power of my Second Awakening?
At this moment, a surge of heat erupted from Qin Yun's body, flowing to his limbs.
The power he gained in the City of Dust is reviving and reshaping Qin Yun.
The entire process lasted very short a time, which may be because this force slowed down the flow of time in the surrounding area, giving people the illusion that the reshaping was completed very quickly.
After the reshaping was complete, Qin Yun could clearly feel that his body had become more robust and stronger.
The power within my body surged like the tide.
"It seems that level 18 is when players advance to the Primaris and undergo their Second Awakening."
"This awakening point is 100% confirmed; it's probably from playing too many dungeons."
Qin Yun stretched his muscles and bones, felt the power within his body, and then went to find Xi Ling.
Let her assess her own abilities and explain some other things.
The surface of Baal.
The resurrected Little Fatty looked dejected as he strode into Angel's Fortress and went straight to the Holy Blood Priest Odamair.
"Welcome, God Chosen. Is there anything I can help you with?" Odamair said.
"I need to submit the 'Recycle Water-Thirster' task and pick up a new task while I'm at it," Little Fatty said.
"Yes, God Chosen."
Odamair reached out and operated on his projection interface, entering the God Chosen's ID and assigning the task to the other party.
Meanwhile, a task notification appeared on Little Fatty's database synchronization screen.
[Mission: Assist the Blood Angels in examining the surviving civilians]
Although the Battle of Baal has ended, its aftermath has not yet subsided. The Blood Angels are short-handed and unable to complete the cleanup work. Please assist them in conducting an inspection of the surviving mortals.
Basic rewards: 24,000 Contribution Points, 7,000 Honor Points, 12,000 Faith Points
Commission bonuses: determined based on work performance or the discovery of corrupt targets.
"These God Chosen are really hardworking. Their loyalty to the Emperor puts us to shame."
Watching the Little Fatty walk away, Odamair sighed sincerely.
Water-Thirster is a liquid life form on Baal Prime and two moons.
It looks like water, but it doesn't provide any nutrients or hydration.
On the contrary, as soon as they come into contact with a living organism, they will drain the organism dry.
To deal with Tyranid, the Blood Angels poured all the Water-Thirster they could find into the moat of Angel's Fortress.
When the Tyranid creature enter the moat, they will be completely dehydrated by the Water-Thirster.
These creatures are deadly, and no one wants to come into contact with them; only the God Chosen are willing to take on this responsibility.
What they need to offer are Contribution Points, Honor Points, Faith Points, and a relic that no one uses anymore, all exchanged for Throne Gelt.
Originally, if things had only gone this far, Odamair wouldn't have been so moved.
But he was shocked when he learned that these God Chosen were working hard to complete tasks and accumulate Contribution Points to buy equipment in order to better serve the Emperor.
What unwavering loyalty!
Odamair knew he couldn't possibly do a mercenary job without resentment, having to earn money to buy equipment and then pledge allegiance to the Emperor.
And these God Chosen did just that; they were even quite happy about it.
Loyalty needs no further explanation.
Baal,
A desolate mountain range,
People are rare here; there are only desolate deserts and bare, rocky peaks.
Not far from here, there was a small town, but it was deserted.
They must have been moved to Angel's Fortress or another safe zone before the war started.
The roar of a gunboat's engine shattered the silence of this desolate area.
After the players of the Emperor's Cattle Warband and other Chapter divided up the Tyranid creature, they began to excavate Baal's ruins, preparing to make a fortune from tomb raiding.
Ten-Timer, under the guise of inspection, entered the library of the Blood Angels and found many ancient books inside.
Now, all they have to do is search for the clues provided in the ancient books one by one.
"To find the dragon and divide the gold, look at the winding mountains. Each winding mountain is a barrier. If there are eight dangerous barriers, then kings and nobles must be buried here."
The Twisted Man mouth kept muttering to himself.
Warmaster couldn't stand it any longer and slapped the other person on the back of the head.
"Damn it, do you think this is grave robbing?"
The Twisted Man turned around and looked at Warmaster with a shocked expression.
"Aren't we tomb raiding? Who knows, maybe there's Necron Dynasty beneath Baal?"
The Wrist Bro rolled his eyes. "What, did the Necron Dynasty consult a feng shui master before choosing a burial site?"
The Twisted Man said, "Maybe they just like this kind of thing. I also studied Ghost Blows Out the Light and the Grave Robbers' Chronicles systematically for a few years. I'm a pro at tomb raiding and excavating relics."
"Listen to me later, and I guarantee you'll leave with a full load."
"Forget it, listening to your half-baked feng shui is no better than learning Numerology," Ten-Timer joked.
"Damn traitor! Feng shui is an important means for humans to understand the Warp. How can you use that idiot Mortarion's work to smear it?" the Twisted Man shouted.
"..."
The Baal have had multiple ethnic groups.
Humans are the closest to the present.
When the first colonists arrived, Baal was deserted, with only a large number of Xenos buildings remaining.
The colonists destroyed all the Xenos buildings and then built their own city.
At its peak, human cities covered the entire surface of Baal.
Baal's two satellites were even depicted as paradise.
With the arrival of the Age of Strife and the Age of Night, Heaven was transformed into Hell by war.
People forgot the past, and the survivors were turned into Mutants due to radiation.
The magnificent urban ruins and monuments built with mythical technology on Baal Prime and its two moons stand as testaments to Baal's former glory.
The Milky Way is rife with endless battles, and the Blood Angels, busy with their own lives, don't have the energy to uncover those secrets.
Ordinary people lack the ability and equipment to venture into dangerous areas with strong radiation.
Therefore, those secrets have remained buried beneath the desert.
Today, with the arrival of the Emperor's Cattle Warband,
An ancient ruin located in a desolate desert has been discovered.
The surrounding area of the mountains contains the ruins of former buildings.
It was filled with intense radiation that could kill mortals.
Even after tens of thousands of years, those buildings have not completely weathered away and still remain on the mountainside.
After scanning the entire mountain using advanced equipment,
Players from the Emperor's Cattle Warband have found a path into the interior of the mountain.
Whether it was good fortune or a blessing from the Emperor, it's hard to say.
The ruins they were exploring had never been opened before.
They reached the end of the road, where they were finally stopped by a heavy door.
The portal features two lifelike angel designs.
One is depicted with gold thread, the other with black thread.
The two angels knelt before the crowned King of Angels who sat on the throne.
The Twisted Man examined the pattern for a moment before saying, "Golden Angel, Dark Angels, and the King of Angels."
"What is this thing?" Warmaster stared wide-eyed at Ten-Timer, the all-knowing Warhammer expert, standing to the side.
Ten-Timer frowned slightly. "Have you ever heard of how demons are born?"
"The echoes of what is done in the Realspace, the entities created in the Warp, are demons," the Turtle said.
Ten-Timer paced back and forth for a moment before revealing his guess as the answer.
"If I'm not mistaken, this Golden Angel should be Sanguinor, this Dark Angels is the embodiment of Red Thirst and Black Rage, and this King of Angels should be Sanguinius."
"Every planet has power; as the Primarch shapes them, they also shape the Primarch. When Sanguinor died for Sanguinius, he was elevated to become an angel, and this Dark Angels is still being conceived."
"This is an ancient Prescience. Prescience was carved on the wall when humans first colonized Baal. It looks like we're about to find something good."
