I will get there.

Qin Yun nodded.

He had promised Guilliman a long time ago.

I will go and help persuade the wolf cubs to accept the Primaris enhancement.

Such a promise cannot be broken.

"After the Horus Heresy ended, considering the threat that the Legiones Astartes posed to the Imperium of Man, I promulgated the Codex Astartes."

"Break the numerous legions into Chapter of a thousand men each. In this way, we can use the power of Astartes to protect the Imperium without causing another large-scale betrayal."

"The Holy Scriptures received the support of Corax and Jagatai, but Russ and Vulkan chose to stand with Dorn and rejected the proposal to split the Legion."

"Even after Dorn agreed to split the legions, many hidden dangers remained, and Russ was always dissatisfied with this, which affected his offspring."

Guilliman recounted some events that occurred after the Horus Heresy ended.

After the Emperor left, everyone was somewhat lost and didn't know what to do.

Lion El'Jonson and Russ were consumed by guilt, hating themselves for not getting to Terra in time, and became withdrawn.

Dorn, blinded by hatred and focused on Revenge, refused to dismantle the Legion.

He even accused Guilliman of having ulterior motives, believing that the fundamental purpose of splitting up the Legion was to seize power.

In fact, at that time, Guilliman commanded 300,000 Ultramarines.

With the support of the Five Hundred Worlds of Ultramar, its military strength is the greatest.

All other legions, plus other Auxilia, are needed to barely contend with him.

If we don't split up the Chapter and maintain the legion structure...

Given Guilliman's abilities, the Ultramarines could expand to a size that would be unmatched by any other Primarch.

"Not being able to participate in the Siege of Terra is, in those people's eyes, a cardinal sin."

"I became a thief who stole the fruits of victory."

Guilliman's tone was somewhat heavy when he said these words.

"The Siege of Terra was not your fault; it was a battle that mortals could not intervene in."

Qin Yun offered words of comfort to the Primarch.

Guilliman reached the outer reaches of the Sol System before the last wall had fallen.

But at that time, the Sol System had already been pulled into Warp by the forces of Chaos.

Guilliman couldn't find Terra's location at all.

Until the first Living Saint — Qi Le— led the Pilgrims to reactivate the Astronomican,

Guilliman located Terra and rushed there as quickly as possible.

"Those people won't understand. They only know that I have a large army, but I failed to support Terra," Guilliman said.

"The Space Wolves probably still harbor this idea, believing that my push for the Primaris Project is an attempt to control them."

"There's no need to gain everyone's approval," Qin Yun said. "The Imperium is getting better, and that's enough."

"I will have those wolf cubs undergo Primaris Enhancement, since their Wolf-form is becoming more and more serious."

Like the Blood Angels, the Space Wolves also has a flaw: the Canis Helix.

This unique genetic mutation granted them immense power, but also plunged them into a crisis of becoming the Beast.

As time went on, this phenomenon became increasingly serious.

During the Battle of Cadia, many Space Wolves warriors transformed into werewolves.

As they transform more often, the warriors gradually lose themselves and eventually become true werewolves.

After discussing the genetic defects of the Space Wolves, the two sides cut off communication.

"Xi Ling, summon the Master of the Administratum and the Imperial Chancellor to see me."

Qin Yun watched the projection gradually dim and gave instructions.

"Yes, Master." Xi Ling nodded.

The two high-ranking officials of the Imperium, who had been summoned, quickly arrived before Qin Yun with their entourages.

"I need to leave for a while. The Imperium will be temporarily managed by the two of you. Remember, you must supervise the implementation of the reform policies."

"..."

After explaining the relevant matters to the Master of the Administratum and the Imperial Chancellor,

After inspecting the Adeptus Mechanicus's construction progress in space,

Qin Yun then set off for Hollow Mountain, where the Astronomican headquarters was located.

Preparing to teleport directly to the Macragge's Honour.

To make things easier, he brought along several high-level players from the Emperor's Cattle Warband.

Originally, he wanted to bring his newly recruited and trained bodyguards.

But none of them could use the Beacon's teleportation network.

Currently, the Beacon teleportation network is only accessible to players.

Therefore, Qin Yun can only bring players along.

The Astronomican is a massive psionic device, rare even in Holy Terra and the entire Milky Way.

Its light covers most of the Milky Way and serves as a guiding Beacon for ships navigating in Warp.

It's not just the Imperium of Man that uses Astronomican for navigation in the Warp.

Some Xenos or traitors also use the Astronomican to determine their location.

Qin Yun, along with Warmaster and other players, boarded a transport ship and arrived at the entrance of Astronomican Fortress.

The magnificent gate is etched with the emblem of the Astronomican Court.

The massive rudder is inlaid with a skull, a symbol of purity.

Several Imperium servants dressed in fine clothes hurried over and bowed to Qin Yun.

"Your Living Saint," an official said respectfully, "As per your instructions, preparations for the transfer are complete."

"Take me there," Qin Yun said.

"This way." The supervisor walked ahead, leading the way for Qin Yun and his group.

After Guilliman and Qin Yun planned and modified the Hollow Mountain where Astronomican was located,

A completely new look

It's completely unrecognizable from its original, worn-out appearance.

Before Guilliman returned, the Astronomican Court, like other Imperium departments, was slowly decaying.

Numb staff, unchanging work processes, and tools passed down through generations.

Many places are dilapidated, with ugly patches everywhere.

The Astronomican was initially designed as a transitional device; the Emperor never intended for it to operate for ten thousand years.

As time went by, the various components of the Astronomican gradually decayed.

In order to keep the Astronomican running, the Magos responsible for its maintenance had to add more equipment, making it increasingly bloated.

Later on, even a small demand would require depleting the entire sub-region's city power supply.

When Guilliman returned and saw the state of Astronomican Court, he was amazed that it was still functioning—it was nothing short of a miracle.

Even after Horus's rebellion ended and he returned to Terra, Hollow Mountain wasn't that dilapidated.

After seizing power on Terra, Guilliman quickly began reforms.

Let Cawl bring his group of Mars Tech-Priests to Hollow Mountain to maintain and modify the Astronomican.

It was completely revitalized, not only improving efficiency but also adding several new functions.

For example, connecting with other Beacon to form a navigation network.

Establish instant communication with other Beacon

It can also use the power of the Astronomican to maintain the purity of the Beacon Network and prevent it from being invaded by demons.

The closer one gets to the core of the Astronomican, the more one can feel the surging spiritual energy.

The roar of the machinery grew clearer, and the ground trembled slightly.

Finally, Qin Yun and his group entered a spacious hall.

Qin Yun had Xi Ling activate the teleportation function, sending them all to the Macragge's Honour.

The whole process was quick, covering a long distance in the blink of an eye.

Everyone felt the scenery before them was distorted, and when everything returned to normal...

They then found themselves on the Macragge's Honour, which was anchored in orbit around the planet Fenris.

"You're saying the Primarch has already gone to the surface of Fenris?"

Qin Yun learned of Guilliman's whereabouts from a mortal supervisor who was in charge of receiving them.

"Yes, Your Living Saint," the supervisor said respectfully. "Just a few hours ago, the Primarch went to the Fang."

"Prepare a transport ship for me immediately; I need to go to the surface as well," Qin Yun ordered.

The senior officials and generals who remained behind dared not delay and made preparations for the Living Saint as quickly as possible.

Half an hour later, Qin Yun led the players of the Emperor's Cattle Warband aboard a transport ship and flew towards Fenris.

The surface of Fenris.

Upon learning that Guilliman was coming, Logan immediately sent a message to all the Space Wolves still wandering outside, urging them to return.

The remaining Space Wolves gathered at the Fang.

They stood on the tarmac, where the wind howled and snowflakes swirled, awaiting the arrival of the Primarch.

"Do you think they'll force us to accept it?" Ragnar, the Wolf Lord of Blackmanes Great Company, asked in a low voice.

"Wolves Indomitus to force." Logan's tone was somewhat somber.

If Guilliman tries to force them to accept through his authority, they will fight to the end and never compromise.

They are wolves, not a pack of wild dogs that wag their tails at anyone who has a bone.

The delegation, composed of players including Bald Monk, stood on the other side of the helipad, some distance away from the Space Wolves.

They had been staying at the Fang for the past few days, enjoying the hospitality of the Space Wolves Chapter.

But the Space Wolves was never willing to accept the Primarch's gift.

They always believed that Guilliman's motives were impure, that he wanted to use the Primaris Marines to control Fenris, and thus achieve control over the entire Imperium.

The two sides were unable to reach a consensus, but they did not fight like they did on the first day.

After waiting for a moment,

The roar of engines came from the air.

Several massive transport ships appeared before the group.

The transport ship landed slowly, and the snowflakes on the helipad were stirred up by the invisible airflow from the engine.

Accompanied by the hissing sound of high-pressure gas, the heavy hatch slowly opened.

Guilliman, accompanied by several Adeptus Custodes and Ultramarines, arrived at the surface of Fenris.

There were no cheers, no band, and no grand welcoming ceremony.

There was only a group of vigilant soldiers.

Seeing the wolf cubs bring out all their remaining warriors, Guilliman felt a headache coming on.

Are these guys going to take a desperate gamble and kill me, the Regent?

God have mercy, he really just wanted the Space Wolves to receive the Primaris Marines they were giving them.

In that way, the security of many worlds centered on Fenris can be guaranteed, and he can push the battlefield to more distant places.

Being Regent is a tough job!

P. S.: Don't doubt that I'll run away. As long as you continue to support me, I will keep writing. I'll just be lazy occasionally.

This book is almost a million words long, hehe. I hope everyone will continue to read it. The current Qidian is based on reading data and is recommended by the system.

As for grades, they can't compare to others; they're just mediocre.

So far, the number of favorites has not exceeded 20,000, with 30 to 40 new favorites added every day.

The average order value is 2,700, which is less than the initial order value of other companies.
