"Konrad Curze is a coward."

"Even after ten thousand years, this has not changed."

Lion El'Jonson returned to the Rock, feeling dejected.

Halfway through the fight, that bastard Konrad Curze actually ran away!!

They can certainly spout a whole bunch of harsh words.

However, given Konrad Curze's personality, this guy probably really does have some trump card up his sleeve in Tagusa.

We must proceed with caution in our attack on Tagusa to avoid an unexpected setback.

"Find an opportunity to talk to the Living Saint, Guilliman."

Lion El'Jonson summoned Azrael and other high-ranking Dark Angels to report on the battle and, incidentally, to review the proceedings and identify areas for improvement.

In the world of Gathan,

The players are celebrating their victory in this war.

They emptied the coffers of those powerful families that had been purged and held a grand banquet.

"Drink up, brothers! This bottle of wine was produced on 021M41, which is over a thousand years old."

Director Qi was carrying a wine bottle in one hand and a large pork chop in the other.

Take a sip of wine, then a bite of a large pork chop.

"That was awesome!" shouted the resurrected Silent Night Sky, then began drinking and eating meat with gusto.

Drinking and eating meat in the game has absolutely no impact on reality, and the taste is exactly the same.

In addition, his formidable physical attributes as Primaris Marines,

Warhammer Online can do everything that's possible in real life.

What you can't do in real life, you can do in games.

The rescued people also held a grand celebration ceremony, and beautiful fireworks filled the night sky.

"I haven't felt this kind of pure joy in a long time."

Director Qi took a swig of wine. "After entering society, there are cars and houses everywhere. It feels like life is being tightly bound."

Esperanto nodded in agreement.

"Yes, playing games makes me realize that life doesn't have to be so restrictive; it's just that we can't escape the gaze of others."

The player next to him (ID: Unlucky Mechanic) nodded, "Yeah, I'm also curious, what is the purpose of a person's life?"

"I feel that time always erases everything. I used to think death was terrible, but after seeing it, I feel that it's not so bad."

At that moment, fireworks exploded in the sky, and the player with the ID: Shy Starfish shouted as the mechanical route was followed.

"Life has no meaning; we are born to be loyal to the Emperor."

"Old folks, stop thinking so much. You should shake off the chill and be more energetic."

Director Qi and the other players laughed.

They also felt a bit silly, having just had a little to drink and suddenly becoming sentimental.

They've all started playing Warhammer Online.

Why think so much? Just be loyal, and that's all that matters.

Thinking too much can easily turn you into a heretic!

"That's right, for the Emperor!" Director Qi echoed.

"For the Emperor."

"Awooo..."

The players partied all night until they were all drunk and lying on the ground.

They drank too much strong liquor.

It's no exaggeration to say that half of the water in their bodies is alcohol.

However, they regained consciousness after only two or three hours.

The Primaris Marines have an incredibly high metabolic rate.

The strong liquor you drink is quickly metabolized into water.

Nocturne, Mount Deathfire.

Qin Yun ordered the accompanying members of the Adeptus Mechanicus to forge a magnificent furnace here.

With Xi Ling's help, the work was completed quickly.

A forging furnace incorporating various cutting-edge technologies appeared deep within the tunnel.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Yun summoned the master forging experts of the Salamanders Chapter.

Have them forge equipment and weapons for you.

"It is our honor, Your Living Saint," Xyston said.

"It is my honor to work with masters like you," Qin Yun replied with a smile.

Upon learning of this, Tyberos, the Chapter Master of the Carcharodons, expressed his desire to join them.

His forging skills were also outstanding.

The pair of giant Power Klaw he uses now, 'Hunger' and 'Slake', were forged by himself.

According to records, after having a few drinks, he carried a hammer into the forge.

After several days of hard work, these claws were finally forged.

They can easily penetrate the Tyranid Dominus and the Dreadnought Sarcophagus.

After thinking it over and consulting with forging masters like Xyston, Qin Yun finally nodded and agreed to let Tyberos join in.

"Living Saint, rest assured, with my help, the quality of the weapons and equipment forged will definitely reach a new level," Tyberos assured him confidently.

Tu Shan looked at Tyberos in this state with some discomfort.

Before becoming Chapter Master, he had also been in contact with the Carcharodons Chapter.

Well, how should I put it!

This Chapter is highly aggressive and always exudes killing intent.

Tyberos was notorious for his cruelty.

The battlefields he ravaged were left only with ruins and corpses.

But they behaved very obediently in front of the Living Saint.

Tu Shan believes that the Carcharodons Chapter was triggered by something that led to a change in the Chapter's culture.

But he soon found out.

The Carcharodons Chapter hasn't changed at all; their obedience to the Living Saint is a special treatment.

Their attitude towards the Salamanders remained as hostile as ever, and they even tried to loot their equipment.

Tu Shan even heard that Tyberos's men were abducting qualified Nocturne residents.

They plan to recruit them as Carcharodons warriors.

Tu Shan had to be on high alert to prevent the Carcharodons Chapter from plundering Nocturne.

Of course, this is just a digression.

After gathering all the necessary personnel, Qin Yun began the forging process.

The furnace began to operate, using the intense heat of the Mount Deathfire as its energy source.

Rare metals from various planets in the Milky Way were fused together according to strict specifications.

Then, it is repeatedly pounded.

In a technologically advanced era, forging weapons using such an ancient method seems somewhat foolish.

But this is Warhammer.

A universe where the extraordinary and the technological coexist.

Weapons forged by hand can bear the strength and emotion of the forger.

This releases even greater power.

With everyone's concerted efforts,

A suit of armor, predominantly green with black and gold trim and accents, and a longsword adorned with a lion's head were quickly forged.

Polish the rough edges of the armor, and decorate the shoulder armor and breastplate with lion heads.

After wrapping the hilt with leather and polishing it, the sword is considered to be basically finished.

The group placed the forged armor and sword on a high platform.

Qin Yun took the lead in blessing the armor, giving it the characteristics of Warp, thus better protecting the user.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Yun took out the 'Forest' Status Fragment he had obtained from the Nurgle's body from the dimensional warehouse.

The fragments were small, yet they contained astonishing power.

When it is taken out, the light slowly spreads, with a unique rhythm.

Qin Yun was very Nurgle about just how many races' Pantheon had devoured.

Only then can one possess so many Status Fragment.

Every drop of divine blood flowing through that bloated, obese body once belonged to a deity.

But soon, humanity will also master this power.

Xyston, Tyberos, and the others all looked shocked.

They could sense that this thing was extraordinary.

This is not something ordinary people should possess.

"Forest fragments are compatible with Sons of the Forest."

Qin Yun muttered to himself,

He knew that Lion El'Jonson had awakened Caliban's power.

This armor will truly make the Lion a god.

"Our ancestors tried to conquer the world with absolute reason and science, but they failed."

"From this day forward, we will embark on a new path, and humanity will eventually have its own Pantheon."

Qin Yun muttered to himself as he held the 'Forest' Status Fragment in his hands and walked to the armor.

He placed the extraordinary item on his armor and then chanted an ancient incantation.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the Status Fragment was absorbed by the armor.

In an instant, a terrible storm swept out.

Strange patterns spread along the armor, forming ancient and obscure runes.

Subsequently, its brilliance subsided, and it quickly became ordinary.

This armor will allow Lion El'Jonson to be in the Forest at any time, enabling him to draw upon Forest power.

After blessing the armor, Qin Yun began to bless the longsword, granting it the power to ward off demons, thus enabling it to better deal with those Warp creatures.

Status Fragment, then there's nothing left.

After all, Qin Yun didn't have many pieces.

After all, he found this thing himself.

It was only after the Emperor dealt with Nurgle, who broke the rules, and caused him to bleed, that he was able to obtain those Status Fragment.

After completing the forging, Qin Yun acknowledged the praise from forging masters such as Xyston and Tyberos.

Then, he summoned players including the Warmaster of the Emperor's Cattle Warband.

Because of the Divine Summoning, Qin Yun can immediately communicate with players or bring them to his side, no matter where they are.

"Send the armor and sword to the Lion."

Qin Yun gave them a task.

"We guarantee the mission will be completed."

Players like Warmaster always welcome quests that allow them to increase their affinity with Primarch and Guide.

Xyston, Tyberos, and the others all looked shocked.

They could sense that this thing was extraordinary.

This is not something ordinary people should possess.

After receiving the mission, the players of the Emperor's Cattle Warband escorted the armor and sword as they set off.

Using the Star Gate and Webway built by the Imperium, they traversed the Great Rift in just a few days and delivered the quest items to the Lion.

At this time, the Lion had already launched a full-scale offensive against the Night Lord.

They routed the Chaos traitors, inflicting heavy casualties.

Upon receiving the equipment forged by Qin Yun, Lion El'Jonson immediately changed into it.

The new equipment and weapons greatly enhanced the Lion's fighting power, making him even more unstoppable.

Those demons and traitors were slaughtered by Lion El'Jonson as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

They quickly destroyed most of the Dark Empire that Konrad Curze had built.

They controlled key Warp routes, forming an encirclement around Tagusa.

Meanwhile, Konrad Curze was also conserving his power, as if he really wanted to have a real showdown with his brother in Tagusa.

To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, Lion El'Jonson initiated a conference call, asking Guilliman and the Living Saint to help him discern Konrad Curze's true intentions.

As soon as the three established communication, Lion El'Jonson spoke first, expressing his gratitude to Qin Yun.

"Living Saint, the armor you forged fits perfectly and has such strong defense. With it, we'll be much more confident in dealing with Konrad Curze."

"Armor?" Guilliman looked puzzled.

"It's the one I'm wearing," Lion El'Jonson said. "It was personally crafted by Living Saint and blessed in many ways, making it extremely defensive."

Guilliman, standing to the side, suddenly looked at Qin Yun with a resentful gaze.

He spent a much longer period of time with the Living Saint, knowing him intimately.

Why give Lion El'Jonson a gift but not yourself?!

"I never expected that Living Saint could forge weapons and armor. I've never heard Living Saint mention this before."

"I thought we could trust each other, but who would have thought that the Living Saint was always on guard against me."

"If it were just a matter of concealing his expertise in forging, that would be one thing, but I never expected that the Living Saint would forge weapons and equipment for Lion El'Jonson, but never thought of forging them for me."

"Looks like I'm really not popular!!"

These words gave Qin Yun a headache.

"Regent, you already possess the Armor of Fate and the Emperor's Sword. What use would it be for me to forge weapons and armor for you? Therefore, I have never mentioned it."

"This time, I helped him forge the weapon because I was worried that the Lion would suffer a loss when he was about to fight the Night Haunter."

Qin Yun's explanation eased Guilliman's expression slightly.

"This armor even has special abilities, how amazing! Living Saint, your understanding of the Warp has reached a new level."

Lion El'Jonson's words made Guilliman, whose mood had just improved, become somewhat resentful again.

The greater purpose of the Armor of Fate was to sustain his life and protect the soul wounded by Fulgrim, thus allowing him to awaken from his millennia-long slumber.

The Armor of Fate is far more valuable than the set Qin Yun gave to Lion El'Jonson.

But the armor and sword Lion El'Jonson wore were a gift from Living Saint.

She was clearly the first to return to the Imperium, the first to meet the Living Saint, and the one who, together with the Living Saint, dragged the crumbling Imperium back on track.

Why do Lion have armor and swords, but I don't?

Seeing Guilliman's expression, Qin Yun thought to himself, "I've made a mistake."

After saying that, he asked Xi Ling to call up Archangel Sanguinius to discuss the matter of Konrad Curze together.

Back in the Second Imperium, the Archangel must have played a significant role in preventing these two from escalating into a major conflict.

If these two brothers continue like this...

Qin Yun felt that the Guilliman Horus Heresy and the Lion Horus Heresy were bound to break out sooner or later.

Sanguinius, along with the Two Dragon Soul Boss and other players, searched for soul fragments everywhere, but there was nothing particularly urgent going on.

A moment later, Sanguinius's radiant figure appeared in the projection.

Sanguinius, as expected of the Primarch, sensed something was amiss as soon as he logged in.

He immediately noticed Lion El'Jonson's armor and Guilliman's resentful gaze.

Based on what he had heard before, Sanguinius quickly figured out most of the details.

The Archangel glanced at Guilliman and Lion El'Jonson, then at Qin Yun, who was pleading with his eyes.

"Lion El'Jonson, this armor is really nice."

"I never expected that Living Saint would have such skills. It's truly astonishing."

Qin Yun: "..."

It's said that Archangel are golden on the outside but black on the inside.

I never believed it before, but today I've seen it for myself.

We brought you up here to help put out the fire and cool it down, not to fan the flames.

Seeing Guilliman's face grow increasingly grim, Sanguinius spoke again.

"I wonder if the Living Saint could forge such a set of armor for me and Guilliman as well."

"Of course, if the Living Saint finds it troublesome, I can discard my set and forge one for my brother, Guilliman, first."

"He's out there fighting, facing Chaos and Xenos, which makes him vulnerable to danger. But I'm not even a living person right now, so danger doesn't matter to me."

Qin Yun stared wide-eyed at Sanguinius.

I remember I traveled back in time to Warhammer!

It's not Dream of the Red Chamber!!

Why does this sound like something out of a Daiyu story, where she thinks, "If it puts my brother in a difficult position, then it's my fault!"?

PS: My condition was so-so today, only 4,000 points.
