All In and Kidnapping (2)
Immediately afterwards, all the Perpetual performed a ritual together.
They sealed away the Mother of the Primarchs completely.
Until the moment her Fated Death arrived.
Meanwhile, in the Emperor's private chamber, he was having a secret conversation with Tzeentch.
"You're going to incite Horus Heresy, Tzeentch."
"Wasn't your original plan to wait for that Horus Heresy?"
"We're just adding fuel to the fire of this Horus Heresy."
"Its burning and explosion will be far more brutal than its original fate."
"I have no obligation to gamble the fate of humanity on your survival."
"But if I die, the entire universe will fall into Despair, or even Despair will cease to exist."
"Miracles can never be killed, you Schemer."
"Do you think humanity can withstand the darkness and desolation of waiting for Miracle?"
"If Miracle really happens, what will be left of humanity?"
"Madness, rage, deathly silence, lifelessness, hopelessness, and no more Miracles."
You're gambling!
Will what Tzeentch said happen?
Of course!
It will happen if he wants to.
During the War in Heaven, the Necrons and Old Ones could turn parts of the Warp into dead zones, making it impossible for any Warp creature to approach.
Similarly, Tzeentch has his ways of eradicating the concepts of hope and Miracles from the entire Warp for at least 100,000 years.
The Well of Eternity.
A hundred thousand years of waiting—by then, will humanity still be humanity?
"Then you bet I won't dare jump into that well."
Finally, the Emperor fell silent, while Tzeentch looked at the Accursed with a playful smile, feeling an unprecedented sense of exhilaration.
That damned robber, that damned liar.
They obtained the essence of Lesser Warp Gods from them, and then snatched someone from that gentleman's hands.
Then, using underhanded means, they forcibly imposed a destiny on this universe that did not belong to them, but now, everything is within the plan of the Lord of Change.
This plan directly involves Han Mingxuan himself.
"What price are you willing to pay?" After a long silence, the Emperor was the first to speak.
"This isn't a price to pay, wise partner; this is a cost."
Enough with the nonsense, show me your sincerity.
"I will accompany him to ensure his safety."
"What does that mean for humanity today, and what does it mean for the universe today?"
"Despair."
"You selfish madman, for your own existence, you're going to drag the entire universe into Despair?!"
"Will brief Despair lead to lasting Miracles and hope, or do you want all of humanity to be dragged into Despair for 100,000 years?"
After weighing the pros and cons, the Emperor and Tzeentch reached a cooperation agreement.
If we fail, humanity will be plunged into an abyss of suffering for 100,000 years.
If successful, humanity will achieve its brightest future in a short period of time.
"Well then, I wish us a pleasant collaboration, and see you again in 40 years, my partner."
Forty years later, Han Mingxuan himself was already old and frail.
At the same time, Han Mingxuan, who had just arrived at the XVI Legion, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
But he had absolutely no clue about it.
Could it be Slaanesh's doing again?
That's not right.
According to the outline, she doesn't have any scenes at this point.
Could it be that the Huangpizi are running a gambling den again?
Surely not?
Currently, the Primarch are all in good mental health.
What problems could possibly arise?
Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. There's always a way out.
We'll talk about it later.
At the same time, at the deepest part of the Well of Eternity.
It was a desolate place, devoid of any concept, not even the concept of Warp.
There was only a black sea here, reflecting the entire Warp.
This is the bottom layer of the Warp.
On this vast, upside-down sea, a lone boat sails alone.
On this small boat, there is a golden figure.
It can be identified from its shape and outline that it is a woman.
The woman lay on the boat, resting with her eyes half-closed, letting the waves carry the small boat wherever they pleased.
Suddenly, a giant wave, unlike any seen before, appeared in this inverted sea.
"Sigh, the sheer number of geniuses in this world is truly mind-boggling. How could those brats have written a story like this?"
The golden figure opened its eyes, muttered a weary complaint, and with just one glance, the towering waves vanished into nothingness.
She then continued to drift aimlessly in the boundless ocean.
However, before she closed her eyes again, she glanced at the seabed.
That place is where Han Mingxuan's soul is hidden in this world.
"That little girl from the Aeldari did manage to do something worthwhile after all."
After the sound disappeared, there was no more sound or breath at the very bottom of the Warp, and everything returned to normal.
Horus, it's been a long time.
"Uncle, I didn't expect you to actually come to the XVI Legion. I thought Impetus was joking with me."
On the Vengeful Spirit, Horus met his Uncle. He had been told to go to the First Legion first, but it seemed his Uncle had changed his mind.
"Of course I'll come. Not only me, but look who else has come."
Horus then saw two figures that he recognized very well.
"Sejanus Loken?"
"Welcome back! How's it going at the Administratum?"
"Unforgettable, Father."
Loken originally intended to give Horus a good dressing down.
However, before Sejanus left Terra, he received guidance from a Great Angel who wished to remain anonymous.
Therefore, he spoke very vaguely.
"Really? Then I believe this will be one of the most unforgettable experiences of your life."
"Alright, this isn't the place for reminiscing. Also Sejanus and Loken are back, but the Luna Wolves position is vacant at the Administratum."
"A spot for Luna Wolves?"
"Yes, according to the regulations for implementing the Imperium Resolution, each Legion has a quota."
"Apart from Roboute, Sanguinius, and the Eighth Legion, all other Legions have fixed quotas within various systems of the Imperium."
Are there available spots, or are the spots fixed?
This is wonderful!
"Thank you, Uncle, you've really helped me a lot!"
"I'll accept your thanks. Have your people contact Sanguinius and Roboute directly later."
"Of course I will, Abaddon!"
"Yes, Father!"
"This time, Luna Wolves's training opportunity within the Imperium system will be given to you and Aximand. Is there any problem?"
"Mission accomplished!"
Looking at the two spirited young men, Han Mingxuan nodded in satisfaction, and Sejanus and Loken showed genuine smiles.
That's great, a very energetic young man.
