Ch. 121The Wild Card Brought by the Blood Angels
Wang Zhong learned that the Iron Hands would leave Aurelian and the Blood Angels, led by Sanguinius, would arrive, threatening to complicate Crimson Dawn’s plans. He prepared to build ties with both Legions, launch Astartes augmentation, and confront the Mechanicus, while wondering whether he could change the tragic fate of Ferrus Manus and Sanguinius.
- Wang Zhong practiced Spiral Power and found that it greatly enhanced his body and Power Armour, though he remained the only one able to master it fully.
- Oil-Guy told Wang Zhong that the Iron Hands would leave within ten days and that Sanguinius and the Blood Angels would replace them.
- Wang Zhong suspected the Mechanicus had arranged the transfer after losing its mineral monopoly, and he vowed to challenge its control of technology.
- Wang Zhong instructed Oil-Guy to negotiate a supply deal with the Iron Hands and gather intelligence on Sanguinius so Crimson Dawn could build relationships with both Legions.
- Wang Zhong ordered the seven chosen Astartes candidates to undergo augmentation after the vote and resolved to keep searching for a way to teach others Spiral Power.
