Chapter 548 6. Ten Thousand Years (6)

019.M33-
Ascension Day of Sanguinius: Led by Sanguinius, Angron, Robert Guilliman, and the Custodes, attempted to awaken the God-Emperor.

The ceremony was held at nine o'clock in the morning, with the sun rising slowly. During the ceremony, everyone present and those watching the broadcast of the ceremony saw the figure of the archangel who was about to be consecrated.

Faintly, around the altar, golden figures were in a daze, and many people recognized that among them were human heroes who had returned to the God-Emperor during the Great Crusade and the Great Rebellion.

The believers of the state religion are full of hope and waiting for the arrival of a new era.

However, as the ceremony was coming to an end, something strange happened to Sanguinius.

The broadcast was cut off immediately, but most of the people staring at the projection saw Sanguinius with black feathers on his back in the last frame.

At the same time, along with the changes in Sanguinius, there was also the sudden madness of the Blood Angels and their descendants. About half of the Blood Angels fell into extreme anger and addiction on the day of Sanguinius's Ascension. In blood.

These irrational warriors began to attack everyone they could see.

On the day of the Ascension of Sanguinius, most of these glorious battle angels in the past were invited by famous interstellar governors in the nearby star fields, United Church priests, or spent this festival with local nobles or civilians. .

On those lucky planets, Blood Angels who have not yet fallen into madness will kill their comrades with their own hands, or commit suicide before they are completely controlled by anger and bloodlust.

And on those unfortunate planets…

However, the Stormwind Star Territory, including other star territories stationed by the Death Guard, survived. The crazy Blood Angels tried to open the cage and fight with the imprisoned Death Guards. However, with the help of the nearby Star Territory Mechanicum, the Death Guard Controlled the Blood Angels.

Next to the Blood Angels' main fleet near the solar system, a Death Guard fleet rushed out from an unknown area. Without any hesitation, this sudden appearance of the Death Guard fleet began to attack the Blood Angels.

At the same time, other legions also received warnings from the Death Guard. The Space Wolves and White Scars were the first to respond to the Death Guard's warning and began to immediately support the star field where the Blood Angels were stationed.

On the other side, on Terra, all information about that day was deleted, hundreds of millions of people were forced to undergo amnestics, tens of millions of people were executed, and three-quarters of the ships that came to visit Terra sank forever. Pull up the air.

At the same time, the Bible written by Sanguinius was completely abolished.

Over the next fifty years, all mention of Sanguinius and the Blood Angels was erased as quickly as possible, and all mention of the matter was officially forbidden.

Not a single page of information mentioned this incident. Later historians and conspiracy theorists could only get sporadic information from rare rumors, the Mechanicus, or the elders of the Death Guard.

Based on the reactions of Terra in later generations, scholars have deduced:
Piecing together this brief information, Sanguinius himself fell into some great rage and bestiality during the ceremony.

Mortarion, who was imprisoned in Terra, appeared on the altar in time, and together with Guilliman and Angron, the three primarchs suppressed Sanguinius.

Mortarion was seriously wounded - after the Ascension Day of Sanguinius, rituals to summon the Primarch were rarely held within the Death Guard.

Robert Guilliman was seriously injured - The Imperial Regent died of illness on Macragge in the third Terran year after Sanguinius' Ascension Day.

The whereabouts of Angron and Sanguinius are unknown.

The Assassin Trinsevitar is missing.

But according to the records of the Navigator family that month, after the Ascension Day of Sanguinius, Terra unilaterally organized a one-way fleet to Baal, and the Primarchs Angron and Sanguinius may be on that ship.

What further confirms this inference is that Robert Guilliman visited Baal in 021.M33.

From a long-term macro perspective, what happened on Terra completely reversed the situation of the Human Empire, but for humans at that time, the Blood Angels who were slaughtering crazily around them were the real source of fear.

Many star regions fell into panic as a result. Amidst Terra's silence and the sudden madness of the Blood Angels, people began to question the rationality of the state religion, question Sanguinius, question the other original bodies, and question the Space Marines.

At the same time, the black legion led by Abaddon set out in the Obscure Star Territory to plunder the empire.

Those Chaos Space Marines from a farther, darker age reminded humanity of the forgotten Great Heresy.

Originally, under the deliberate guidance of Imperial Regent Robert Guilliman, all records related to the Great Rebellion had been burned except for the confidential archives on Terra.

But during this period, blasphemous materials sprung up again.

During this period, either because of the need to resist the crazy Blood Angels, or because they no longer trusted the Empire, or because their piety for the national religion was broken, countless planets declared their independence.

As for Terra, after hastily handling the government affairs, the Imperial Regent Robert Guilliman immediately announced a wanted order for the Blood Angels and their descendants. The entire empire's armies were mobilized to exterminate the mad Angel descendants, and Fight against the legions of Chaos.

However, on Terra, those who witnessed Sanguinius's "ascension" began to question Guilliman's orders.

Sanguinius's "ascension" made people realize that the primarchs were not perfect demigods, and they could become even more terrifying beings.

A huge empire cannot be commanded and controlled by the original body alone. There are countless complex war notifications, logistics systems, government departments, commercial ships... all of which are beyond the control of the original body.

Robert Guilliman has worked as hard as possible on this endless mountain of government affairs, but this is by no means a scale that a single Primarch can shake. What's more, in the corner where the Primarch is unaware, there are people above his level. The chess players enter the game.

Robert Guilliman is aware of the distrust coming from the people, but now, the most important thing is to prevent the Blood Angels from destroying the Empire and fending off the attacks of the Legions of Chaos.

020.M33-
The final speech: After convening all Terran senior officials, Imperial Regent Robert Guilliman endured the pain and delivered an impassioned speech, aiming to unite people and take the lead in overcoming the current difficulties.

Despite the political chaos, Robert Guilliman's ability and reputation remain unquestionable, and the Imperial Regents firmly hold military power.

Objections were suppressed for the time being.

After leaving a portion of the Ultramarines to guard Terra, Robert Guilliman ordered Sigismund to lead the Terran army to repel the legions of Chaos that emerged from the Obscura.
-
Strategic retreat: The Ecclesiastical Army in the Storm Star Territory was still executing Terra's orders. After realizing that great changes had taken place on Terra, and under the instruction of Vandire, the fleet retreated to the Pacific Star Territory to avoid coming from the Storm Star Territory. The domain fights back.

021.M33-
Condition: After finding out the truth about what happened in 019.M33, Robert Guilliman's physical condition is deteriorating. The heavy government affairs, the suspicion and distrust from mortals, and the huge self-blame are about to overwhelm this already... The son of God who has worked hard for thousands of years.
-
Trip to Baal: After work, Robert Guilliman took a trip to Baal with the Imperial Guards. During the return journey, the Imperial Regent's health condition was even warned by the accompanying pharmacist.

However, the evil hidden in the dark finally showed its claws after Robert Guilliman arrived on Terra.
-
The real impeachment: Standing under the broken statue of the God-Emperor, Inquisition Vincent, together with the Ministry of the Interior, the Ministry of Justice, the Assassin's Court, and the Mechanicum, initiated the impeachment of Robert Guilliman.

All the high lords present used their own methods to broadcast the scene as much as possible - so that more people could see it.

Since there are too many articles of impeachment, here are only a few that have the greatest impact on Robert Guilliman, the Regent of the Empire.
-
Interference with the Mechanicus: The Empire and the Mechanicus of Mars originally had a cooperative status, but due to the interference of Robert Guilliman and a group of Primarchs, the Mechanicus of Mars was maliciously restricted.

General Forge of Mars spoke, facing Robert Guilliman, and personally tore up the religious content negotiated with the Primarch Sanguinius, and asked why the Empire interfered with the Mechanicum's beliefs and allowed it to go astray.

Since Sanguinius had indeed fallen astray, Robert Guilliman could not respond.
-
In order to expand the power of the Ultramarines and maliciously reduce the resources of the remaining legions: the evidence provided by the United Assassin's Court, Vincent pointed out that within five hundred years, the Dark Angels were reduced by the Imperial Regent Guilliman for various reasons, and transferred to the war-intensive teams. battlefield.

Due to his agreement with Cypher, which concerned his brother Leon Jonson, Robert Guilliman was unable to respond.
-
Covering the Death Guard: Over the past two thousand years, in the Storm Star Territory, the area under the jurisdiction of the Death Guard has owed an astonishing amount of tax arrears, but all the Inquisition's accusations against the Death Guard were rejected by Robert Guilliman. The Inquisition had reason to prove that in order to protect his brother, the Primarch Robert Guilliman indulged the Death Guard's actions knowingly to the detriment of the interests of the Imperium.

Robert Guilliman had given up speaking. The Primarch stood there, staring at the high lords in front of him who had worked and discussed with him countless times.

Guilliman didn't understand what the purpose of the high lord's trip was. Did they hope to bring down a demigod? But under the premise that he holds most of the military power of the empire, this is tantamount to self-destruction.

It has nothing to do with the interests of these families or power. What are their plans?

The original body thought for a long time, but he only felt that it was completely ridiculous. He sorted out every line of interest and the image of every person, but he still couldn't understand why.

However, at this moment, Robert Guilliman can still think, but cannot yet be swallowed up by anger.

The High Lords cited countless evidences of the Primarchs' atrocities.

And before the haze of the Ascension Day of Sanguinius had yet to subside, this kind of evidence was more like the question people across the empire were asking Robert Guilliman.

Finally, after the Martian Forge General left the scene and did not testify for the high lords, the remaining high lords presented the last piece of evidence.

They rolled out a huge, ancient metal machine. The moment the machine was rolled out, Robert Guilliman suddenly felt something extremely uneasy.

As the servitor demonstrated, after a horn sounded, a panel on the machine fell out. It was a very simple electronic screen.

"This is the blasphemous creation we found in the wreckage of the absconding Belisarius Cawl's ship."

The servitor read loudly and calmly,

"We examined the machine, and we found it to be a blasphemous creation that simulated the personalities of Robert Guilliman and his adoptive mother, Thalasa Yuton."

"We have ample evidence that Robert Guilliman was involved in the creation of some blasphemous technology and wished to exploit this machine..."

For the rest, Robert Guilliman could hear nothing.

He stared at the high lords and spoke slowly, interrupting the servitor's words and demonstrations.

Surprisingly, this was a quite calm, very infectious and inspiring speech. Robert Guilliman refuted the accusations of the high lords point by point - although a lot of language skills were used in it. At the same time, Robert Guilliman accurately pointed out the intentions and interests of every high lord present. The Imperial Regent stated calmly and asked everyone present why at such a critical time, human beings could not unite as one, but instead They are still fighting each other for personal and family selfish interests, and even fabricate perjury for personal selfish interests.

In fact, Robert Guilliman's words were not addressed to the high lords.

He was speaking to those watching the High Lords broadcast.

Meanwhile, Robert Guilliman's Ultramarines found and disrupted all transmissions from Terra.

Just after the last signal was cut off, Robert Guilliman, who had been impassioned just now, fell silent for an instant, and he did not even finish the words in his mouth.

Robert Guilliman felt nothing but anger.

Boundless anger.

He looked at those people. Once upon a time, he even personally guided them on how to govern. He talked with them about how to lead an empire to glory. He allowed some of their selfishness and even thought that some of them had great potential.

Anger at being betrayed, anger at being fooled.

Robert Guilliman didn't understand, he didn't understand, no matter why, these people standing in front of him now had no reason to do this-unless they really hated the Primarch to the core-but compared to them, maybe those Those whose families were killed by the Blood Angels should hate the Primarchs even more.

And his soul was almost swallowed up by anger.

Perhaps Sevatar had a glimpse of the truth, but with Sevatar's disappearance, the last and only person who had ever seen it clearly disappeared.

Moreover, with the disappearance of Sevatar, the forces of the Inquisition have already infiltrated into the Assassin's Court.

But at this point, Guilliman no longer wanted to say anything more.

He stared at the ugly faces of those high lords. For the only time in Robert Guilliman's thousand-year reign, Robert Guilliman chose to allow himself to be engulfed in anger.

【kill. 】

Robert Guilliman said calmly.

Beside him, Chang Shengjun rushed out with his sword in hand.

Robert Guilliman drew his sword and calmly stepped forward and chopped the machine into pieces with his sword.

On the side, the blood of the high-collar master splattered on the face of the original body when he whirled his head.

Raging flames ignited over Terra.

022.M33-
Unexpected Visit: Robert Guilliman visits Sigismund, who is wiping out the Legions of Chaos, and hands over command of the Legion to the ruthless and tearless Son of Dorne.
-
Death: After a hurried visit to the expeditionary army, Robert Guilliman returned to Macragge, and died of illness on the day he arrived in Macragge beside the tomb of his adoptive mother Jotun.

It should be noted that Robert Guilliman, the Thirteenth Son of the Emperor, Lord of Ultramar, and Imperial Regent,'s dedication to the Imperium of Man is indelible.

When his brothers were fighting on the battlefield and reaping the admiration and achievements of everyone, or when his brothers were silent in a corner and not interested in the affairs of the empire, it was Robert Guilliman who stood up and tried to operate on his own. the entire vast empire.

Perhaps the image of the Imperial Regent has been tarnished over the millennia, perhaps the image of the Imperial Regent is not as shining as that of his brothers, perhaps the High Lord's accusations against him are not groundless,
However, without Robert Guilliman, the Human Empire would not have been able to quickly emerge from the haze of the Great Rebellion, let alone win the Beast War. Without Robert Guilliman's scheduling and command logistics, the human empire would not have been able to win the Beast War. The greenskins could have just ripped the empire apart.

Without Robert Guilliman, the behemoth known as the Imperium might have been riddled with illnesses.

It is precisely because of Robert Guilliman that during the years when the war subsided, countless people of the empire could enjoy the most comfortable treatment possible in their short lives - unlike his father and his father's assistant Malcador, Robert ·Guilliman is doing his best to improve the quality of life for the heirs of the Empire.

And now, those who can weep for the Imperial Regent may have died in the darkness of Sanguinius's Ascension Day.

The death of the last emperor's heir also marked that the age of apostasy had completely entered the stage of mortals.

Here, heroes and villains share the same stage, traitors and loyalties face each other, aliens and heretics coexist,
In the long night, people who completely lost the leadership of their original bodies began to stumble around like newborns looking for their future.

And the monsters who have been hiding behind the scenes and are afraid of the light of the demigods have also bared their fangs towards the empire.

　No more, great!
　　Don’t worry, Guilliman will definitely win the resurrection match. Maybe he’s not dead, who knows?
