Roboute Awakens
"It's time to wake up, my Roboute. There are many people out there waiting for you."
Lady Euten's voice was soft and gentle, like she was calling a child who was reluctant to get out of bed in the morning.
At that sound, Roboute's eyelids, which had been closed, suddenly twitched.
"Mother?"
Roboute opened his eyes in confusion; he felt as if he had been having a very, very long dream.
Horus betrayed the Imperium in his dream, and half of his brothers brought profound disaster upon the Imperium.
During a battle with Fulgrim, he was slashed by a poisoned blade and lost consciousness.
But now he was hearing his mother's voice, which meant it was all a dream.
"Big Hamster, wake up!"
The sudden roar startled Roboute.
"I hope you are well, sir."
"You are... Cawl?"
"Belisarius Cawl, having traversed ten thousand years, has come to fulfill the promise."
Ten thousand years?
In other words, none of those were dreams.
Yes, how could it be a dream?
The deepest catastrophe, the most painful memory, and the most shameful betrayal of the Imperium of Man.
How could it be a dream?
Are you a little more awake?
Roboute turned his head and saw a man wearing Glasses standing in front of him.
Who are you?
"Huangpizi!"
Instead of answering Roboute's question directly, Sinleech shouted into the space of the hall.
Then golden light emanated from Sinleech's body, Roboute felt that power in just one glance.
That was the power of the Emperor; without a doubt, the person before him held a pivotal position within the Imperium.
"Okay, now you should know that I'm on your side."
"Let me give you an update on the current situation. Abaddon the Despoiler has destroyed the Cadian Gate."
"Now, centered on the Eye of Terror, there will be a Great Rift spanning the galaxy."
"So far, all the troops that the Imperium of Man can mobilize have gone there."
"However, the situation at the front is not optimistic. Lion El'Jonson was seriously injured and fell into a coma by Abaddon. At present, only the Raven Guards and Salamanders are holding on."
"The only other organized Legion are the Eighth and World Eaters."
"The situation with these two Legions is rather complicated, but you must know that they are helping the Imperium of Man."
"These two Legions are not the two Legions you know."
You must now lead the Thirteenth Legion to the battlefield immediately.
What?
Did Abaddon seriously injure Lion El'Jonson and render him unconscious?
Corvus and Vulkan are back?
And the Eighth and World Eaters are actually helping the Imperium of Man?
What's the most terrifying thing? It's that a rift, capable of tearing apart the galaxy, is centered on the Eye of Terror.
"Alright, the message synchronization is complete. Did you remember that?"
"Your Excellency, I understand, but I cannot comprehend it."
"You don't need to understand. You just need to know that you are now leading the Thirteenth Legion to provide support."
"Eliminate all the Chaos Daemons in the world of Cadia's Fortress."
"Did you remember?"
"I've got it."
"Is there a 'but'?"
Yes, but I can't ask.
"Very good, you are now a conscious Primarch."
Calgar!
Having stabilized Roboute's condition, Sinleech immediately began the next phase of the relocation.
"Exist!"
"What's the status of the deployment of the Ultramarines from the Five Hundred Worlds?"
"Reporting to the Chancellor Minister, all the Ultramarines have assembled, including the Imperialis Militia; all are ready for battle."
"Very good, Cawl!"
"I'm here, sir."
Where are your Primaris Space Marines?
"It's all ready."
"Very good, prepare for the Warp Storm."
Warp Storm impact?
Roboute, who was trying to gradually understand everything, suddenly couldn't understand anymore.
What does it mean to prepare for the impact of Warp Storm?
But he soon understood what it meant.
"Go."
A massive Warp Rift appeared openly before them.
Before he could react, he felt himself being thrown by a tremendous force.
"Done, all done."
Looking at the entire Thirteenth Legion that he had packed up and sent to the front lines, Sinleech breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, my part finally landed smoothly.
"Mr. Han, everything's fine on my end."
"Very good, now we just need to wait for reinforcements. But now that Roboute has woken up, the pressure on the front lines should be much less."
"Yes, but given the current situation, even if we filled all 200,000 Blue Cans, it probably wouldn't be enough."
The current battle scene can no longer be simply described as an apocalyptic war.
Two hundred thousand Blue Cans can only last for half an hour at most.
"Fortunately, the God of War has also arrived. I believe that with the God of War's blessing, they can hold out a little longer."
"Whether they can hold on or not, they have to hold on, otherwise Cadia will be gone before reinforcements arrive," Han Mingxuan said.
"Sir, aren't we going to the front lines?"
"You can go if you want, but keep an eye on Tzeentch and make sure he doesn't cause trouble."
"Alright, I'm leaving the rear area in your hands, Mr. Han."
The front lines of the Battle of Cadia.
The Mortals soldiers here now, regardless of their branch of service or their quality.
Their lifespans are measured in minutes.
The longest it lived lasted was three minutes.
As for Space Marines, their lifespan is also measured in minutes.
The longest it survived only lasted ten minutes.
"Sir, if this continues, we won't have enough manpower!"
"Regardless of losses, the defensive line must be held!"
"Phalanx, fire at all costs!"
Vulkan was forced to issue such a cruel order.
If this line of defense fails, then after Cadia is devoured, the entire star sector where it is located will become Daemon World.
But the battlefield is simply too vast now.
A single Phalanx can only play a very limited role.
If there's one time when they need reinforcements, this is when they need them most!
Which Planet can we contact right now?
"Sir, we've lost contact with you!"
"What?"
"The moment the Cadian Gate was destroyed, a massive Warp Storm killed all the Astropath on our ship."
"Damn it, of all times!"
"Don't be nervous, young man. If you can't even handle this much pressure, then the God of War will look down on you."
Suddenly, a nonchalant figure appeared beside Vulkan.
"Prime Chancellor?!"
"You've worked hard, Lord of Drakes, but don't worry."
"The Cadia battle has now been divided into two parts."
"You are now facing the first wave of Chaos forces."
"As for the Chaos Daemons and Abaddon himself, they have already been intercepted."
The God of War has gone to Abaddon to reclaim the excess authority.
He also wanted to test how many moves Abaddon, who was blessed by other Chaos Gods, could withstand against him.
"Very good!"
