Warhammer: The Beginning is the Crisis of Annihilation

  Chapter 448 Those who have passed away will return (seeking subscription)

  Hearing Abaddon's name, Garviel Loken fell into a brief silence.

  The look of horror on his face couldn't be concealed no matter what.

  The shock that this name brings to his heart is like the stormy waves of the ocean when it encounters a storm.

   To tell the truth, knowing that Abaddon was held here was even more shocking to him than seeing the two Primarchs.

   Abaddon, the first company commander of the son of Horus, the head of the Council of Four Kings.

   Horus' most valued son.

  During the Great Expedition, he became a company commander early on with his military exploits.

   is the first person under the Primarch of the Sons of Horus Legion.

  During the Horus rebellion, he participated in the battles of Isstvan III and V and slaughtered a large number of loyalists.

   "He's here too?" Gavier Loken said with a slight frown.

   "Yes, he is here too. He was captured by the legendary general of the Holy Emperor, Lord Calga, and sent to Terra. This is his prison and will also be his tomb." Triste nodded and said.

   "Let's go, take me to see him." Gavier Loken said.

  He and Abaddon had several confrontations.

   The first time was in the Psalm City on the third planet of Isstvan.

  The Council of Four Kings was completely broken.

  He and Torgaddon against Horus the Younger and Abaddon.

   Torgaddon also died in that battle.

  The second time was the Wall of Saturn during the Siege of Terra.

   Abaddon wanted to lead people to break through the palace from under the wall of Saturn, but Donne used quick-drying cement to seal everything underneath, smothering all the traitors involved in this operation.

   Many loyalists died at the hands of Abaddon.

   Abaddon was finally besieged, and when he was only one step away from being killed by the loyalists, he was taken away by the rebels' teleportation device.

  After that, there was no intersection between them.

   The Atonement Astronomical Torch is beyond imagination.

  The giant pillars support the huge dome, which is as magnificent as a miracle building.

  Jean Gavel Loken suspected that such a building was not built by humans.

  A giant arch hundreds of meters high, with several statues parallel to the arch standing on both sides.

  They held a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, guarding the Apostle of Atonement like loyal guards.

  The turbulent crowd walked by the feet of the statue, and their heights only reached the instep of the statue.

  The glass depicting various legendary achievements is embedded in the height of the wall, and the immortal legends of those heroes are written with colorful paintings.

  The Imperial Army wore golden armor and patrolled inside the Astronomical Torch, wary of the troubles that the traitors might bring, and also to prevent the rebels from mingling with the tourist crowd from releasing those monsters.

  Of course, their greater responsibility is to make the sightseeing guests aware of the power of the empire.

  They held battle halberds and wore golden armor covering their whole body.

   Standing on a suspended platform like a god.

   Flying over people's heads.

   It is like the jailer who imprisoned the evil **** in ancient mythology.

   Those prisoners who are traitors have almost zero chance of escaping.

   Present-day Terra is the territory of the Holy Emperor, and the entire galaxy is sheltered by his power.

  The webway also isolates the primordial, chaotic warp.

  The traitors could not borrow any power from the gods they believed in.

   Made of special materials, it can suppress their power to the maximum and weaken their power through the soul siphon.

  Sightseeing guests pour in like a tide, and move forward along the divided corridors.

  Watch these traitors who have brought countless deaths to the Imperium of Man.

   These people turned their backs on the light of mankind and pushed mankind into the abyss.

   Traitors are never forgiven.

   There will be no forgiveness of any kind.

   Any pity and sympathy shown to him is a betrayal and injury to those who sacrificed.

  Gavier Loken walked on the wide aisle led by Trieste.

   Several statues of imperial heroes can be seen at intervals.

  They stand here, silent guards over these traitors.

  Gavier Loken didn't know those people.

  But he could feel their perseverance and bravery from those people's eyes.

  They possessed the same courage as their predecessors.

  Gavier Loken knew that the Empire had gone through a long period of darkness until the Holy Emperor brought them the long-awaited salvation and dawn.

   During those 10,000 years of hard work, human beings suffered a lot.

  Blood and dead people fill every moment the time gear turns.

  Human civilization has entered an unprecedented trough.

   Productivity is low.

  Science and rationality are gone.

   Trieste is very familiar with the Apostle of Atonement.

  She has received many guests who have come to Terra and introduced those attractions to them.

  The Apostle of Atonement is a must-see attraction for those guests.

   Trieste led Javier Loken through the complicated corridors inside the Atonement Astronomical Torch.

   The Apostle of Atonement is holding a large number of traitors to the Empire.

   Use the Soul Siphon to drain and torture them.

   to ensure the projection of the Atonement Astronomical Torch to the subspace.

  The corridors connecting these cells are intricate, and if you don't know the way, you can easily get lost in it.

   After all, at first glance, it is full of people, densely packed with human heads.

   If you go the wrong way together, you will never find the original way.

  Relying on her knowledge of the Apostle of Atonement, Trieste can always choose the correct corridors leading to Abaddon's prison.

  After walking for about ten minutes, they arrived in front of Abaddon's prison.

  As the Warlord of Darkness, his status is no less than those of the Primarch of Demons.

  The guardians of the empire gave him a prison of the same size, so that more people could watch at the same time.

  There are many tourists.

  They came from all directions, from all the borders of the empire.

   Come and see the traitor who brought disaster to the empire.

   Abaddon, a name that once terrified countless people.

But now, he is imprisoned in an empty, clean prison, with a soul siphon device installed in his brain, and the pulsating brilliance shines with the roaring machinery, bringing this dark soul blessed by the four gods The human soul is transformed into pure energy and projected into the etheric ocean.

  The man who brought darkness to the galaxy is now surrounded by people like monkeys.

   No dignity.

  When Garviel Loken was standing in front of the prison, Abaddon recognized this former colleague.

   "Loken."

   "Traitor." Gavier Loken looked at Abaddon in the prison, and spat.

   "You are as usual." Abaddon said weakly,

   Soul siphons and chains are constantly weakening him.

   Re-engraved all the sufferings the Emperor had suffered on his body.

   Nobody can take that pain.

  Fulgrim would scream for it too.

  The soul siphon device used by the Atonement Astronomical Torch is designed according to the design of the Golden Throne.

  That is a torture device that even dark elves fear.

   Abaddon would rather be blasted to pieces by the Empire on the battlefield than stay here any longer.

   Unfortunately, he does not have the power to choose.

  Empire even deprived traitors of the right to commit suicide.

  Guilliman is really not humane at all.

   "It seems that you have lost." Gavier Loken showed a mocking look, "The **** you preached has not been able to save you."

   "The gods underestimated Guilliman." Abaddon said the name with hatred.

  Thousands of years of forbearance, painstaking efforts to unite the believers of the gods like a piece of loose sand, and tore apart the galaxy with the help of thirteen dark expeditions.

  I thought that the final victory was only one step away.

  Who would have thought that it was the beginning of destruction.

   Guilliman's resurrection changes everything.

  The original advantages are gone, and they are reduced to prisoners.

  The forces of the gods have retreated to the subspace, and they need to accumulate strength again before they can launch a counterattack against the real world.

   "This is your doomed end." Gavier Loken said, "From the time you decided to betray, your end has been doomed."

"That was not betrayal. The Empire was created by us, Loken. We fought for it. We built it with blood, sweat and fury. We poured it out of the worlds we captured. We built the Empire out of the flesh and blood of our brothers." Do you remember Saiyanus, Kalus, and Viparo? They are all our brothers, our family, we used to drink and make a vow that will never be broken. They were in the Great Crusade Died, gave everything to build this empire."

"But what have we got?" growled Abaddon. "The Emperor has turned his back on us, ceding the warrior's power to the bureaucracy, spilling the warrior's blood without consolation. What have we got? Loken, Tell us, shall we die when the Emperor turns his back on us?"

"Are you still making excuses for yourself?" Gavier Loken said: "Just like back then, always making excuses for yourself, making excuses. You once swore an oath to be loyal to your monarch, but you are just You are just greedy for power and status, you have no dignity and shame, hypnotized yourself with lame reasons, convinced that you lost your former glory just because of those pure and beautiful ideals, you spent tens of thousands of years urging yourself to repeat this But I want to tell you, Abaddon, that Horus was caused by you to fall into the abyss. It was you who caused him to bear eternal infamy even if he died."

   "Not us," growled Abaddon.

   "It was you who believed Erebus' stupid words and sent him to Devin's temple."

   "Only that can save him."

  "I would rather die with the honor of a warrior, or lose the title of Warmaster, and return to the Emperor's side to recuperate, than I would never wish him to be a puppet fooled by the gods."

  Javier Loken's voice pierced into Abaddon's heart like a sharp sword.

   made him howl in pain.

  If I didn't believe in Erebus, maybe there would be no such things.

  Even with that kind of injury, he could use the stasis field to send him back to Terra for the Emperor's help.

   Then Horus is still the Primarch of the Sons of Horus.

  His statue will stand in Times Square on Terra, and his name will appear in the heroic annals of the Empire, not as a traitor spurned to eternity.

  Static force fields were not used much at the time, but Horus, as the warmaster, possessed the best technical sages.

  At that time, Horus and Abaddon valued the reputation of the son of Horus too much, and did not want him to suffer any damage.

   Horus was seriously injured and sent back to Terra, which would inevitably make his Warmaster status unstable.

   It is an extremely stupid thing to send to the Temple of Devon to seek healing from the power of the subspace.

   But at that time, it became a good plan for them to maintain Horus' position as Warmaster and the honor of Horus' son.

   In the end, they all paid for their mistakes.

   Horus was corrupted by Chaos when he was wounded.

  The ambitions of Abaddon and others also intensified, and they finally embarked on the road of abandoning their brothers and colluding with the evil forces of the subspace.

   Created a tragic massacre, a great rebellion.

   "It's not our fault!" Abaddon said in a pained tone.

"It's your fault, Abaddon. Erebus is the most damned among you, and you are the second most damned." Gavel Loken said every word: "I saw you do it with my own eyes. I saw how you sent Horus to Hell. I saw with my own eyes how you led the noble Luna Wolf to the abyss."

   "No! Not like that," Abaddon screamed in pain.

"That's it, Abaddon." Gavier Loken said: "You have no right to point out the accusation. I will not let you go, Abaddon, even if you have been imprisoned here as a wild dog, I will There will be no mercy for you either. This is just the revenge of the new Lord of Humanity against you, and the revenge of those of us who have returned has not yet begun."

   Abaddon looked up at Garviel Loken, with a trace of fear and anxiety in his eyes.

   During the Great Crusade, he knew that Loken was a steadfast person.

  As long as one goal is identified, Loken will not give up.

  He said he wants to take revenge on himself, so he must take revenge on himself.

"When you leave Terra, I promise, you will cry with Erebus, and those who have been destroyed by you will avenge you through my hand, and I will break your spine again and interrupt you Nerves in your neck that make you lie in it like a paralyzed old man who can't take care of himself, and become the laughing stock of the galaxy."

  After leaving such a threat behind, Gavel Loken turned around and left.

   Trieste also left with this legendary imperial hero.

  She accompanied the imperial hero on a tour of the many traitors who were to be imprisoned next.

   All the Traitor Primarchs are here.

  In addition to the dead Horus, the others are here.

  They all knew Loken.

  During the time of the Great Crusade, Loken was very active.

  As a member of the Council of Four Kings, Loken often accompanied Horus and his colleagues to meet other Primarchs.

   Those who betrayed the Primarch have lost their former honor, and all became monsters.

  The only ones who can remain normal are Perturabo and Curz.

  Kurz did not throw himself into Chaos.

  He just participated in the rebellion.

  Peturabo chose Chaos itself, not the gods of Chaos.

  The two still maintain a certain human appearance.

   Fulgrim, Mortarion, etc., have all been transformed and are extremely ugly.

   They expressed anger at Loken's arrival.

   thought this was Guilliman's new trick to torture them.

   It wasn't enough for the populace of the Empire to think of them as monkeys.

   Even at the expense of resurrecting those who have long since died, let them watch their own jokes.

  During the great rebellion, they uttered so many big words.

   Mocking the folly of the Empire against the gods.

   Those who died were mocked by them as sacrifices without meaning.

  They surrendered to the Chaos Gods, gained immortal life, and will indulge in pleasure to the end of the universe.

   Now, they are imprisoned in cages and exhibited as monkeys.

  Is there anything more embarrassing than being seen by acquaintances when you are down? ?

   It's like when a man relies on crooked ways to prosper, he mocks his law-abiding friends as poor ghosts, and he will never be able to get on the stage for the rest of his life.

  When he went bankrupt due to suspected crimes and could only beg on the street after he was released, those poor friends made a fortune by relying on law-abiding legitimate businesses.

  If you are humiliated by people you don't know, no matter how angry you are, it is still within the tolerable range.

   But if they are humiliated by those acquaintances, they will often lose face, and even become angry and angry.

  When many traitors saw Loken coming, they did show more anger and shame than when other people came to watch.

  Guilliman revived Loken, making what they had done like a joke, like a clown.

  They were imprisoned in a cage, but Loken returned again and became a hero, a legend.

  Things like this broke their hearts and made it hard to accept.

  Gavier Loken also expressed contempt and humiliation to each of them.

   Shatter their final illusions with practical actions, and tell those idiots that they are the real Garviel Loken, the commander of the tenth company of the Luna Wolves.

   The sightseeing tour of the Apostle of Atonement lasted for a day, and Garviel Loken saw all the traitors imprisoned here.

  Most of the traitors by name were brought back here to be humiliated.

   For those people, Garviel Loken did not show any mercy.

  Their past choices have produced today's bitter fruit.

  Those traitors deserve it.

  If it weren't for the fear of too much impact, he would have suggested torture for these idiots.

"It's all like a dream, Trieste." Garviel Loken whispered to the narrator when he walked out of the Apostle of Atonement, "Everything we ever dreamed of has come true. Those who fought in despair The heroic spirits who have reached the last moment will rest in peace."

   "This is not necessarily the case, death is not the end of duty." Trieste said: "The empire has mastered how to use the recorded data hidden in the background of the universe to summon the heroes of the empire."

   "What do you mean by that?" Javier Loken asked puzzledly.

"Those people you are familiar with may all return. The Holy Emperor needs them to participate in a grander war." Trieste said: "That war is bigger than the Great Crusade, mysterious, involving life and death, fate, truth, etc. domains and dimensions."

  Gavier Loken frowned slightly.

  He tried to understand the meaning of Trieste's words.

  Guilliman has a grander ambition than the Emperor.

   More importantly, the other party is implementing various plans to ensure that what he wants can be realized.

  Gavier Loken felt a little uneasy.

  To be honest, his field of vision is still the same as that of the tenth company commander of the Great Crusade. Even after experiencing the Horus Rebellion, he only realized the existence and danger of the subspace.

  There are too many things for him to understand in this era.

  Gavier Loken didn't know whether he should support things like breaking the cycle of life and death.

   This hesitation continued until he was sent back to the hospital for recuperation and recovery.

  The reason why he no longer has such hesitation is that when he was sent to the hospital, he saw his former bosom friend.

  They fought side by side, side by side against those evil things.

  I used to drink and talk happily, and I used to sit together to discuss the desired future.

  When they looked at each other, they couldn't help calling each other's name.

  Even if there is a gap of thousands or thousands of years, they can recognize each other immediately.

   "Torgaddon."

   "Loken."

   I can’t write it, I owed two chapters yesterday, and I probably owe another two chapters today
