Such Business Competition Is Too Despicable

"My son."

Sanguinius' voice was filled with sorrow.

He stepped down from the throne.

The body, shrouded in light, was strong and imposing, exuding an immense sense of oppression.

The enormous wings unfolded behind him, their pure white feathers as real as the Primarch's sorrow.

"Father, you are truly our father."

Tears welled up in Mephiston's eyes, and his voice choked with emotion.

"I'm so sorry for causing you so much suffering." The Primarch's voice possessed a sorrowful beauty.

He bent down and reached out to Mephiston's face.

The touch was real and warm, giving him an indescribable sense of sacred peace.

"You have done so much for humanity, Mephiston."

"You are one of my finest sons, the guardian of humanity, the sword that protects mankind."

"You have suffered so much, I should have kept my promise and brought you to my side, freed you from the strife, and put you to stand with the departed brothers."

Mephiston smiled with relief.

"Yes, take me with you, Father."

"I have served for so long, I have endured so much suffering, please grant me the release of death, let me return to your side."

However, Sanguinius shed tears.

The falling tears shone with radiance.

"I cannot. Humanity needs you, and the new Master of Mankind needs you. The End Times War is coming, and fallen heroes will return. Mephiston, you must remain in the mortal world."

These words froze the smile on Mephiston's face.

Ah!

With emotions running high, these words seem a bit inappropriate.

Do I have to go back to work overtime?

"No, Father, take me with you." Mephiston still wanted to plead.

Sanguinius shook his head. "No, I'm sorry."

Upon seeing the Primarch's rejection, Mephiston showed a sad expression.

At that moment, with a loud bang, the vast underground space trembled.

It was as if a terrifying beast was charging at this place.

"The enemy is closing in, we don't have much time left, Mephiston."

Sanguinius' voice was still sorrowful, but he no longer shed tears.

He looked at Mephiston, a hopeful look in his eyes.

Do you know these two angels?

The Golden Angel and the Black Angel stepped forward and stood beside Sanguinius.

Mephiston first looked at the golden angel and called out the angel's name.

"Sanguinor?"

The golden angel nodded, acknowledging that he was indeed Sanguinor.

Mephiston then looked at another dark angel.

The other person's face was very familiar, but he couldn't recognize him.

"And who is this?" Mephiston looked at Sanguinius, hoping to get an answer.

"The Dark Angels are the opposite of Sanguinor. Before humans even arrived in Baal, the ancient races living here were already aware of the existence of the Golden Angel and the Dark Angels,"

"They are the right-hand men of the King of Angels, and also his eternal adversaries."

As Sanguinius explained, he pointed to the stone pillar next to him.

A picture lit up, showing Mephiston a group of slender Xenos.

They wore heavy robes, the fabric decorated with artworks carved from bloodstone.

In the scene, they erected monuments that would stand for ten thousand years.

The monument is engraved with Golden Angel and Black Angel.

"Millions of years after this race perished, humans came to Baal and established a paradise-like colony."

As Sanguinius spoke, the surrounding scenery changed.

Mephiston was astonished to find himself standing in Void.

Two satellites orbiting Baal came into view.

Baal Secundus is surrounded by azure ocean.

The light gray of the desert and the dark green of the lush vegetation create a beautiful scene.

Victoria and Bawei II are exemplary models of technology and architecture.

The magnificent ring-shaped building surrounds the satellite, and the dazzling lights adorn the bustling city like Stellaris.

"How beautiful!" Mephiston exclaimed, his face showing astonishment.

He never imagined that his hometown, which he considered Death World, was once so beautiful.

"Unfortunately, that beautiful world was destroyed with the arrival of Age of Strife."

Sanguinius' tone was as sorrowful as ever.

"Fortunately, we were given the opportunity to rebuild it."

"We will rebuild Baal into paradise once again," Mephiston said firmly, swearing to the Primarch.

"That's what I hope for too, child," Sanguinius said. "I brought you here so that you would make a choice."

"This is a heavy choice, but if we succeed, we will have a great chance to rebuild Baal back to its former paradise."

With a wave of his hand, Sanguinius vanished from the starry sky, and they returned to the cold underground space.

"Sanguinor was once a mortal until he chose to sacrifice himself to save me on Davin."

"That sacrifice allowed him to absorb all the good things that the Sons of Baal had shown over countless ages, and thus he gained immortal power."

"But the Sons of Baal also bears the burden of sin, a power even more terrifying than that wielded by Sanguinor."

"It represents chaos and fury, which is why the Blood Chapter suffers from Red Thirst and Black Rage."

"This power has grown stronger with the passage of time, and it is embodied in every Sons of Sanguinius."

"The Blood Angels were Baal's strongest children, so they were the first to be cursed."

"When all the Blood Angels have fallen, the curse will spread to every Sons of Baal."

"Baal's people will die under the control of Red Thirst and Black Rage. In the end, this dark force will even affect other worlds, or even the entire Imperium."

"Is there anything I should do?" Mephiston asked.

Sanguinius looked at Mephiston, his bright eyes revealing sorrow.

We grieve for the heavy burden and terrible fate that this poor offspring will bear.

"Mephiston, you must merge with the Dark Angel, control its power, and tame it so that this power can be used for the Imperium, and the Blood Angels will find peace."

"The price will be equally terrible. You will become synonymous with darkness, and all things will fear and hate you, but you cannot tell anyone about it."

Mephiston's eyes widened.

He has already given so much to the world, isn't that enough?

Are we going to make him continue to endure misunderstanding and suffering in silence?

"No!!" Mephiston said, "Take me away, Father."

"I'm sorry." Sanguinius released Mephiston's hands, took a step back, and repeated, "I'm sorry, my child. Live on, for humanity, for the Imperium, and for me."

"Stop talking."

Mephiston shouted and ran toward Sanguinius.

"Father, take me away, please."

At that moment, a gush of bright red blood, seemingly from nowhere, erupted like a tsunami, engulfing Mephiston and choking him.

Sanguinius sat once more on his throne, gazing down upon Mephiston, now submerged in a sea of blood, his eyes still filled with endless sorrow.

"Go back; your duty is not yet fulfilled."

"The Warp is in a turbulent time, and the Despoiler have unleashed their uncontrollable power."

"The Warp and the Realspace will be closely intertwined, but the Immaterium is not an evil hell; it has merely been corrupted."

"What we need to do is Purification it and get everything back on track."

"Please forgive me for not being able to free you from your suffering. Humanity and the Imperium both need you, Mephiston."

"No!" Mephiston shouted.

He struggled and tried to reach the Archangel.

However, a crimson wave crashed down, and he was swept away and sunk into the blood.

Once Mephiston resurfaced from the sea of blood and regained his footing,

Sanguinius and the two angels have vanished, leaving only a surging sea of blood.

Immediately afterwards, he heard Lacerus's voice.

"Come back, Mephiston, we need you."

The sound kept repeating, like some kind of whisper.

A force appeared out of nowhere, grabbing Mephiston's limbs.

At this moment, the sea of blood also began to churn, engulfing the Chief Librarian.

Under the influence of two forces, Mephiston was pulled back to the real world.

"He's back! Quick, control his limbs and inject him with the medicine."

The Biologis Magos standing beside the modification platform spoke excitedly.

He ordered his servants to restrain the trembling Mephiston and injected him with a pre-prepared drug to repair the Chief Librarian's body.

It also introduces the energy of the star into the other person's body, thereby activating dormant bodily functions.

The Librarians, led by Lacerus, were delighted to see this.

"By the Archangel, he has returned."

But soon, their faces showed fear.

A terrifying surge of psychic energy erupted from Mephiston's body, sweeping across the surroundings and shaking the heavens and earth.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Along with the explosion, power cables and equipment throughout the four walls of the room simultaneously burst open.

Dozens of dazzling energy streams burst forth from Mephiston's mouth.

His body was enveloped in a bright, Golden Crow -like energy radiance, like a sun slowly rising.

The orb of light slowly rose, Mephiston became a shadow within the blazing flames.

Boom! The ball of light exploded.

A terrifying energy erupted like a storm.

He knocked everyone around him to the ground.

Then, Mephiston opened his eyes, and the violent power was instantly absorbed into his body.

All the scars from the past have disappeared, Mephiston has become an exceptionally handsome man.

"Congratulations, you have crossed the Primaris Threshold." Lacerus's face lit up with joy. "It seems that you have successfully suppressed that dark being."

Mephiston looked at Lacerus.

He recalled what Sanguinius had said in the illusion.

Controlling the Dark Angels comes at a price.

For the rest of his life, he would have to fight against that Dark Angels.

Only in this way can the Chapter and Baal be preserved.

Thinking of this, a heavy gloom settled over Mephiston's heart.

But he didn't show it; instead, he grinned and smiled.

"Yes, I have taken control of that terrible Dark Angels."

"Now, find me some clothes, I need to go see the Lord of the Blood Angels."

Meanwhile, Dante, the Lord of the Blood Angels, was receiving the God Chosen had traveled from afar.

The God Chosen came to visit were none other than Dora and White Wolf from Dora Workshop.

They had already learned that the Blood Angels were about to launch Dark Imperium Crusade.

They came specifically to promote the brand-new Angel Power Armor in order to expand their business.

Recently, the Bio-Brain introduced by the MC Dynasty has made them feel threatened.

The decision was made to use new products to expand the market and build a competitive advantage.

The Power Armour they were trying to sell was different from ordinary Power Armor.

In addition to various cutting-edge technologies, it also comes with a pair of wings made of active Nano-metal.

The metal wings not only provide the lift needed for flight, but the metal feathers that make up the wings can also be launched out, turning into sharp blades to tear apart enemies.

"This is Angel Suit that we developed specifically for the Blood Angels. It abandons traditional energy batteries and uses Cold Nuclear Fusion for power. One refueling can support several years of high-intensity consumption."

"In addition, it is made of active Nano-metal materials, so as long as the energy core is not completely destroyed, it can self-repair, reducing logistical pressure."

"Equipped with an adaptive module, each component can be programmed and shaped to perfectly fit both the standard Astartes and the Primaris Astartes."

"It features the brand-new White Tiger Servo System with nanosecond-level response, as well as a dynamic perception system, multi-core assistance, and perfect compatibility with squad combat."

"It adopts the Black Tortoise Architecture and is equipped with a biased force field and a small plasma shield to enhance battlefield survivability."

"The pair of Wings of Angels on the back are even more remarkable. They feature an aerodynamic design and incorporate the latest 2.0 anti-gravity device, making them more stable and quieter."

"The wings of the Wings of Angels are connected by hinges, allowing them to extend and retract freely. Using the latest neuro-sensory connection technology, the wings become an extension of the body, with nanosecond-level response and built-in repair capabilities."

"..."

Dante, Koubro, and the Blood Angels stared in disbelief as the God Chosen introduced their equipment.

It sounds so high-end and impressive.

"The Imperium's enemies are so powerful, you need more and better equipment, and this Angel Armor is the most suitable for you."

"As long as you purchase our armor, we will also provide excellent after-sales service. Dora Workshop solemnly promises that if there are any quality problems, you can return the goods within seven days without giving a reason, and we will only replace them, not repair them, during the warranty period."

White Wolf paused for a moment, then offered another major discount. "Order now and receive a small frigate, 500 meters in length, as a gift."

Dante turned to face the Blood Angels, including Koubro, and exchanged glances, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Previously, they used whatever the Forge World provided.

Where have I ever been a client?!

Having no experience, I was a little nervous.

"I wonder if we could try out this suit of armor?" Koubro asked.

"Of course, we will do our best to meet any customer's needs."

The White Wolf nodded with a smile.

Before long, several Dora Workshop employees wearing scarlet robes came in from outside and began to replace Koubro's armor.

They were all members of the Adeptus Mechanicus.

Later, due to issues with benefits and career prospects,

He gave up serving the Adeptus Mechanicus and instead joined Dora Workshop as an employee.

The way the first-generation Angel Power Armor was worn was exactly the same as the MK Power Armor used by the Blood Angels before it.

Of course, Dora Workshop is already researching second-generation Power Armor.

Using brand-new technology, it is integrated into a large metal box.

Once you place your hand on it and it passes verification, the box will be automatically activated.

It transforms into a fluid, liquid metal that covers the wearer's entire body.

The employees at Dora Workshop were very quick, and it only took them a short time to remove the MK-type Power Armor from Koubro's body.

Then, he put on the Angel Power Armor.

"Praise be to Omnissiah..."

After changing clothes, the employees recited a binary song praising the Omnissiah together.

A data interface suddenly appeared in front of Koubro, who wasn't wearing a helmet.

It displays detailed parameters of the Power Armour, as well as the status of each component.

[Angel Series Armor has been activated]

Koubro tried to move.

The server system's response speed was found to be ridiculously fast.

Compared to the armor I wore before, it was like heaven and earth.

The optimization of the Synesthesia System made him feel that the armor was no longer an external object, but an extension of his own flesh and blood.

With a thought, the metal wings on his back came to life, extending and retracting at will.

With a gentle flap of its metal wings, Koubro took flight, like a legendary angel.

"This armor!"

Dante's eyes widened.

He never imagined that Power Armour could be made like this.

Dora and the White Wolf smiled.

This meticulously designed Angel Power Armor is sure to entice these Blood Angels to become enamored with it.

The previously released CMC Power Armour is not much different from the MK Power Armour commonly used by the Imperium.

However, starting with the Angel Model, Power Armour design will undergo a radical transformation.

Of course, the Angel Power Armor is extremely expensive to manufacture.

After all, they use the most advanced materials.

Currently, it is estimated that only Astartes can use it as a complete unit.

However, that's more than enough. With their Angel Armor and Primaris Astartes, they are undoubtedly the deadliest army in the Milky Way.

As for the previously developed CMC Power Armour, along with the newly developed Mjolnir Power Armour, they will be distributed to the elite forces of the Astra Militarum.

"How is it? Are you satisfied?" White Wolf asked the Sanguinary Priest Koubro.

"The performance is indeed excellent." Koubro landed, looking shocked.

With this Power Armour, the Blood Angels' mobility and combat capabilities will be significantly enhanced.

He could already picture himself wearing this Power Armour, slaughtering those Xenos and traitors.

It'll be like cutting melons and vegetables, a complete massacre.

"I never imagined Power Armour could be designed like this!!"

A voice came.

Everyone turned to look and saw that it was Lacerus and Mephiston.

"Have you successfully crossed the Primaris Threshold?" Dante asked excitedly.

Mephiston nodded. "Yes, I have crossed the Primaris Threshold. The first thing I did after awakening Lord of the Blood Angels was to come and see you."

"Good, very good." Dante walked over and patted Mephiston on the shoulder. "We all thought you wouldn't make it to the Battle of Rongtien?"

"Today is truly a day to celebrate, as yet another Imperium hero has crossed the Primaris Threshold."

"Why not take advantage of this day and add to the joy, Lord of the Blood Angels? Please make Dora Workshop your weapons and equipment supplier."

Dora walked up to Dante and Mephiston.

Dante looked at Koubro, who nodded slightly in agreement.

"Then sign it. The Blood Angels will purchase weapons and equipment from you," Dante said.

"You won't be disappointed, Lord of the Blood Angels. Dora Workshop is dedicated to providing our guests with the best armor and weapons."

Dora reached out and summoned a contract interface.

"To facilitate trade, this is a trade system developed by the Imperial Bank and the Department of the Interior. As long as you sign your name here, it will have the same legal effect as a paper contract."

After Dante reviewed it and confirmed that there were no problems, he signed his name with his bio-seal.

Dora smiled and said, "Then I wish us a pleasant collaboration."

After signing the contract, Dora Workshop provided the first batch of 100 sets of Angel Power Armor for Blood Angels.

Dante didn't waste any words.

After receiving the new equipment, he had his Sanguinary Guard, company commander, and veterans change into new gear.

As they flapped their wings and flew away, the little players active in Baal immediately started drooling.

"That's so cool!!"

"The Blood Angels have changed their outfits, they all have wings?!"

"Dora Workshop actually managed to make wings."

"Damn it, they didn't sell to us first, but instead supplied the NPCs first."

"I want wings too, beautiful wings."

"Does it have the ability to mimic? I want to become like Sanguinius."

"..."

The release of the Angel Armor has sparked much discussion among players.

It's even more popular than the Bio-Brain in the MC Dynasty.

After all, the Bio-Brain is what enhances computing power and changes Imperium.

For ordinary players, it doesn't really have much of an impact.

But wings are definitely a factor in how cool a game character looks.

After all, being strong is a matter of the current version, but being cool lasts a lifetime.

Having a pair of angel wings—whether it boosts combat power or not is another matter—it's definitely beautiful.

Just as the Angel Power Armor made its debut and sparked heated discussions,

On the other side, in the Forge World Las,

Magos Morio, the forging supervisor, received bad news.

"The Blood Angels said they no longer need us to provide Power Armour; they have a better supplier."

The Tech-Priests was giving the report bowed to the Magos Morio.

"No need?" Magos Morio asked with some surprise. "Didn't you tell them that this time we will not only provide them with standard Power Armour, but also a batch of Terminator Armour?"

Magos Morio firmly believed that the Blood Angels would absolutely not be able to refuse such equipment.

After all, there are only a few Terminator Armour suits in a single Chapter.

They only gave it to us because the Blood Angels are a First Founding.

Otherwise, you might as well go cool off somewhere else.

"They made it very clear that they didn't need it," the Tech-Priests in charge of the report said cautiously.

"This assessment is a very ignorant decision," said Magos Morio.

"Magos, why don't you take a look at this?" The Tech-Priests opened a projection interface, playing a picture of the Blood Angels flying in the air.

Magos Morio's mechanical eyes widened slightly, and the sound emanating from the brass speaker was filled with shock and disbelief.

"Power Armour with wings that can fly?? Was it developed by those God Chosen?"

The Tech-Priests nodded. "It was developed by the God Chosen. The Blood Angels Chapter also said that the God Chosen's service is better than ours, and that buying their products comes with a free gift: a small warship that is 500 meters long."

"They also offer after-sales service, claiming that if any quality problems occur within the warranty period, they will only replace the parts, not repair them, and you can call a repairman at any time if you encounter any problems."

"Dante, the Lord of the Blood Angels, has decided to make Dora Workshop the weapons and equipment supplier for the Blood Angels Chapter."

"This...this doesn't comply with the regulations of the Imperium and Mars ..." Magos Morio tried to use the regulations of the Imperium and Mars as an excuse.

But when they realized that the other party was the God Chosen, the messenger of Omnissiah, they immediately backed down.

In terms of the belief in the Omnissiah, others are more orthodox than him.

"That's outrageous! They're actually engaging in business competition!!"

Magos Morio never imagined that one day, the Forge World would also encounter commercial competition.

Damn it, will this Forge World, which is guaranteed to make money regardless of drought or flood, go bankrupt again?

P. S.: Look at this, guys.
