Nothing Happened
030. M32,
The Death of Hope: On the last day of the new year, Pope Luojia began the ritual to awaken the Master of Mankind.
He then delivered a speech in the presence of Guilliman, Ferrus, Corvus Corax, Dorn, as well as the Arch-Magos Malcador and Marshal of the Adeptus Custodes Valdor of the Imperial Guard.
Thanks to the empire's rapid development, and after a thousand years of repeated experiments, the empire finally found a way to make the Divine Seal Spire operate at high power.
That is to build churches around the Divine Seal Spire, relying on the Psychic Power projection formed by His God-Emperor His Majesty in the Warp as an energy source.
Although this behavior may seem offensive to the God-Emperor, Pope Luojia stated that if His Majesty in heaven could see that he could contribute to the Empire, he would surely be pleased.
These remarks were met with unanimous praise from the entire empire, and while continuing to believe in the God-Emperor, people also began to enjoy the various conveniences brought by the Divine Seal Network.
To preserve this sacred moment, believers also started Live Broadcast on the Divine Seal Network.
As the New Year's bells rang, under the watchful eyes of millions of believers, twelve golden beams of light appeared behind Luojia, lifting her to the Golden Throne.
At this moment, humanity's devout faith in the Emperor reached its peak, and countless golden petals fell from the sky, as if singing praises to the arrival of this saint.
Looking at his sister floating in mid-air, Guilliman was filled with envy. He also wanted to have those cool wings, which reminded him of his brother, Sanguinius.
"Huh? Dorn, speaking of which, how many wings does Luojia have?"
"Twelve! But I've always thought they weren't wings, but some kind of energy tentacles..."
Dorn started rambling again, explaining to Guilliman the 13 different types of wings and tentacles, but Guilliman wasn't listening at all. Instead, he felt a sense of unease, as if something was shouting in his ear, accompanied by a dog barking.
Stop her!
"What?"
This time, Guilliman truly heard it, but hearing the sound didn't mean Guilliman could understand it. And it was this hesitation that would cause Guilliman a lifetime of regret.
When Luojia's palm touched the Emperor, her originally pure golden wings instantly turned black and burst into flames, burning away her priest's robes and revealing the black dress underneath.
"Romus, Remus, where are you? This isn't Serenity, no, you've killed my child."
In an instant, the first to react was Malcador, where a sudden Warp storm instantly formed, severing the Divine Seal signal across the entire Holy Terra. But even so, it was too late.
This behavior seemed to have angered some being, and a jet-black greatsword shot out, pinning Malcador to the ground.
As soon as the destructive power appeared, Luojia and all her offspring went into a frenzy and began indiscriminate attacks.
In order to control their crazed sister, the Primarchs were forced to attack Luojia, but they found that they were completely unable to control her.
Luojia was there to kill them, but they didn't want to hurt their sisters. Because of this situation where they were constantly restrained, Ferrus was beheaded with a single sword strike and became a flying head barbarian once again.
Left with no other choice, Dorn had to pick up his shield again and become Tank Warrior to hold the line. In the end, he was only able to control Luojia thanks to a sneak attack by the Raven King and Guilliman.
However, the price was that Malcador injured and collapsed, and Luojia was burned to a crisp by the black flames, which were impossible to extinguish.
Fortunately, there were still 3 Dreadnought left. Malcador was sent back to the palace for the second time, while Luojia was also buried in the Dreadnought. Compared to Malcador's injuries, Luojia fell into a deep sleep.
Before being buried in the sarcophagus, Malcador grabbed Guilliman's hand and said to the four remaining Primarchs:
"Be careful, He will absolutely not let this go!"
032. M32,
Reign of Chaos: After two years of cleanup, most of the Word Bearers who had gone mad were eliminated. Only a very small number of Word Bearers retained basic sanity, but they were also imprisoned in the Stasis Field for containment.
However, the influence of the Word Bearers' madness went far beyond this, with rebellions breaking out in numerous religious circles.
The Divine Seal created by Atlas were of such high quality that even after a thousand years of wear and tear, and even though Malcador cut off the signal immediately, the Live Broadcast still reached the entire empire.
People discovered that the demigods they had worshipped for thousands of years were not as wonderful as they had imagined, but rather monsters more terrifying than Daemon.
Therefore, Guilliman had to bring in the Space Wolves to carry out a large-scale suppression.
Furthermore, the connection base stations of the Divine Seal Network were directly cut off, causing the Divine Seal Network, which had restored its cross-star region connection, to revert to its original mode.
At the same time, a massive memory erasure operation sweeping across the entire empire was fully launched.
That night, the four Primarchs held a private meeting, and the previously sealed Atlas data was brought out again.
For a full week, the four Primarchs stayed put, analyzing the data and gradually expanding their search, eventually uncovering a large number of Atlas research reports inside the Law of Truth.
It details Atlas's Blasphemous Experiment on a certain planet, which involved using hypnosis and mind imprinting to create Warp Entity usable by the Legion.
This is no different from the situation where Luojia suddenly went mad.
To this end, Corvus Corax secretly led the Raven Guard to Colchis to investigate, while the existing Word Bearers were also dismantled, and all information about Atlas was destroyed.

Chaos Strikes: After a thousand years of peace, the empire has gradually forgotten about the Daemon, the great enemy of Chaos.
But as if it were pre-arranged, as the Word Bearers went mad, a large number of Daemon invasions broke out simultaneously within the Empire, and the Storm Sector was also harassed by the Dark Eldar.
The most crucial event was the outbreak of a rebellion on Raven King's home planet that affected the entire sector, with even the Raven Guard among the participants.
053. M32,
Chaos Expedition: Faced with repeated attacks from Daemon, the Imperium of Man decides to launch a counterattack. The Iron Hands and the Death Guard assemble simultaneously, led by Ferrus, to venture deep into the Eye of Terror in search of the missing Primarch.
Persistence pays off. Through Numerology calculations passed down through generations of the Death Guard, the fleet discovered the fleeing Koz in a world deep within the Eye of Terror.
Along with the human fleet appeared the Tzeentchian demon host, whose origins were unknown.
Koz disappeared again amidst the chaotic battle.
057. M32,
Black Crusade: While the Imperial Warmaster are away on campaign, a force known as the Black Legion begins to emerge deep within the Eye of Terror.
The leader was Abaddon, the former Sons of Horus and one of the Council of Four Kings, and he held a cursed sword called Draconequus.
After discovering he had lost his memory, Abaddon decided to avenge his father and launched the First Black Crusade.
However, due to the existence of the Primarch, Abaddon did not penetrate deep into the Empire, but instead retreated decisively after attacking the outskirts of the Eye of Terror.
066. M32,
Dark Moon Cult: As Serenity became the homeworld of the Blood Ravens, a large number of residents from Badab began to migrate to Serenity, and a religious group called the Dark Moon Cult was born.
Although some claim that the Darkmoon Cult is a shoe cult and that its leader is a Pointy-ears Xenos, no one cares about this tiny religion.
Meanwhile, in the Twisted Void deep within the Maelstrom, emerald green lightning began to appear frequently.
Nothing happened!
