Man in Warhammer, starting Primarch.

Chapter 307 114, Pandoras

"Pandoras." Dukel pondered the name.

The golden flames were still not extinguished, and judging from the fragmentary information revealed in it, the coalition forces of humans and the Eldar were already in danger.

The original plan failed, and the God of Laughter did not complete His mission. He was thrown open by the hunter, revealing his still beating heart, and was dragged into the Palace of Joy by the apostles of the Lord of Joy.

When the golden flames went out, all illusions were shattered, and thousands of psychics on the Mind Fire bled from all their orifices. They collapsed to the ground weakly, and only Dukel still stood there, lost in thought.

This power undoubtedly belongs to the Emperor, and no one in this universe can imitate it. The Emperor conveyed the revelation to the Warmaster, but he was in a hurry and extremely hasty.

Duker needs to carefully distinguish the specific meaning of this.

His eyes swept over the collapsed psykers. Although the Emperor did not say it directly, from the current scene, it seemed that the Emperor was also disturbed.

After thousands of years of idol worship by humans, the Emperor's power is no less than that of the Dark Gods. His spirit is endless, and the aftermath of his radiation alone is enough to kill tens of thousands of psychics.

Whether it was the Custodes or the Primarch, it was difficult for them to communicate with him on an equal footing.

But that was a matter of several years ago. Ever since Dukel returned to Terra and worked to restore the Emperor, the Emperor has now gotten rid of the oppression of divinity and has more precise control over his spiritual power.

Behavior that accidentally injured thousands of psychics was clearly abnormal.

Dukel could guess that the emperor must have encountered unimaginable resistance, which was why he behaved so inappropriately.

And being able to have such a great impact on the Emperor is only possible if multiple Chaos Powers work together.

After all, in past wars, both Khorne and Nurgle were obviously suppressed when facing the Emperor.

All these signs indicate that while the Empire and the Eldar are planning to take action against Chaos, the Gods also have their own plans.

Dukel is not afraid of this. As Koz continues to collect the fragments of the Star God, he has tried more than once in recent days to collide with the destiny star that binds everyone.

Although the star of destiny showed no signs of breaking in the violent collision, it was constantly shaken.

The consequence of the shaking of the destiny stars is that the destiny line of the entire universe has become a tangled mess, and the unchanging destiny trajectory has therefore had countless forks in the road.

Under such circumstances, no one, by any means, can accurately obtain information about the future.

Even the gods were no exception, everyone was shrouded in mist, even the Lord of Fate could no longer manipulate the thread of fate and put everything into plan. Under such circumstances, Duker had no reason to fear the gods.

What does it mean just 'Pansdora'?
Although the coalition's operation failed, Ducker was not worried about the safety of the Imperial Legion. The Emperor might not be able to defeat the alliance of the gods, but he could always protect the souls of the Imperial Legion.

The existence of this universe is nothing more than an illusion of the mind in Dukel's eyes. As long as the soul is not destroyed, it is far from true death.

Even if they have been shattered to pieces, they will still return from the void or the cursed legion again.

The Emperor spent so much effort to reveal his revelation to him, obviously he had a plan.

Maybe he saw an opportunity to turn defeat into victory?
Dukel suddenly thought of something.

Then he summoned Ephilar,
"Tell me everything about the world of Pansdora." Dukel looked at the saint in front of him.

Dukel was busy with his affairs and had no time to look up the news of this world. He was not even sure if this was the name of a world.

This is the moment when the secretary experiences his or her own value.

Efilar is responsible for looking up various information for the Warmaster to ensure that they do not fall into the enemy's trap due to lack of information.

"My Lord, Pansdora is located in the Dark Stars and is a semi-demon world. This world does not have the minions of Chaos, and does not even have any life, but it is eroded by the power of Chaos. No one knows why this world is so special. In the 36th millennium, the State Church tried to blow up this planet, but failed in the end."

The saint walked over to the console and fiddled with it with his fingers, and a holographic projection of the stars quickly opened up in front of the two of them.

"The state religion has tried many methods but has never been able to completely destroy this world, so it has moved a large number of believers here, preparing to build Pansdorra into a world of faith. With a devout belief in the God-Emperor, they fight against chaos."

"But the chaotic aura of this world seems endless. Except for those believers with firm wills, all others have been corroded by chaos and turned into wandering zombies."

"The filth of this world seeps into every inch of soil like blood. The state religion is helpless and can only give up helplessly and let the world fend for itself."

Duker's fingers tapped subconsciously on the smooth metal plate of the console.

It suddenly occurred to him that the Emperor had also entered the Black Library - perhaps this world was the entrance to the elusive realm of Slaanesh?
Of course, this was just speculation, and Duker couldn't be sure what he would encounter there.

"Your Majesty's revelation is not groundless. We must find out for sure." Without any discussion or consultation, the Imperial Warmaster stated his intentions.

Other officers in the command center agreed with his idea.

Using the highest-authority virtual beacon, Dukel was able to reach Pansdora in just a few hours.

The world of Pansdorra, as Efilar described it, was a barren land.

Planets are located in perihelion orbits, so close to their stars that even their atmospheres cannot exist.

The radiation and heat from the star splash onto the surface of the planet unimpeded, causing terrible temperature differences across the world.

On the side facing the star, the temperature will reach thousands of degrees, with heat waves rolling, even steel will be melted, and the earth will be carbonized by the scorching heat.

On the other hand, it was rapidly losing heat, even reaching a temperature close to absolute zero.

Even demons cannot survive on such a harsh planet.

Demons are not affected by temperature, but if they want to act in the material realm, they must obey the laws of the material realm.

Dukel and his troops chose to land on the back of Pansdora to avoid unnecessary energy loss of the warships due to the terrible heat of the star.

"My lord, this world is too filthy." Just after walking out of the aircraft, Aiferal couldn't help but say to Dukel, "This world seems to have life, extremely blasphemous, I can even feel a force trying to seduce my soul." "It's really a blasphemous world, so far away from the Great Rift. The State Religion has explored the center of this world, but did not find anything that could breed chaos. According to what is mentioned in those secret files, the pollution of the entire world seems to have seeped out from the void."

"Indeed." A red fire ignited in Dukel's hand, and his burning palm stroked the void in front of him. In the red firelight, some imperceptible cracks were faintly visible.

"The barrier between here and the spiritual realm is too weak. Where will it lead to?" Duker muttered to himself.

"Bring the goddess of life, Aisha. Although I don't want to admit it, her research on the Sea of ​​Souls is indeed more profound than mine."

"It's such an honor to receive praise from the War Marshal." A voice sounded from the door of the command center, and a tall figure walked in.

She has a slender figure and brings vitality the moment she enters this place.

The Goddess of Life walked slowly towards them, and behind her, two Eldar servants pushed a suspended holographic projection generator.

"My Lord, I am here to answer your questions." Aisha smiled and bowed humbly, "When you come here, I can guess what questions you want to ask."

"In that most ancient age, when the Old Ones had not yet lost the battle that plunged the entire galaxy into despair. Pansdorra was once a beautifully transformed world, where a vassal race of an Old One named Alba lived."

As the Goddess of Life spoke, the projector behind her also projected images.

That is a history that is older than the Eldar.

"The Ancient Saints may be the earliest inhabitants of the Soul Sea, but that doesn't mean they were the only ones living there at the time. In the deeper and more hidden parts of the Soul Sea that are unfathomable, some monsters are gradually awakening."

"The gods today are awakening in the depths of the Soul Sea. No one can imagine how many horrors are hidden in the deeper depths of that ocean."

"In the War in Heaven, Nurgle's consciousness was the first to awaken. The cunning gods chose to lie dormant, secretly extending the power of chaos to the real universe, absorbing the emotions and souls of all living beings."

"As the Chaos Gods grow stronger, they also establish their own kingdoms in the eight directions. The real universe is closely related to the spiritual realm, and can even be regarded as the virtual and real sides of the universe. The realms created by the Chaos Gods will also leave traces in the real universe."

"Pandoras is so special because it is a borderland where the realms of the Chaos Gods overlap. The barriers between reality and illusion are overwhelmed, and eventually the power of Chaos infiltrates."

"The aura of chaos is constantly being squeezed out, and over time it will completely pollute this world."

"Then what does this have to do with the Emperor's revelation?" Efilar asked puzzledly.

"Slaanesh's consciousness awakened the latest, and his kingdom was also the last to be built. At the location where these realms overlap, we can open a small path. Just like even the strongest city walls have weak points, digging a secret passage here may lead us directly to Slaanesh's kingdom."

The goddess of life, Aisha, replied.

After hearing her answer, Duker's eyes gradually brightened, and at this moment he also understood the meaning of the myth of the goddess of life.
.
On the other side, in Slaanesh's palace, even in desperate situations, the soldiers of the coalition forces were still fighting hard, shouting the name of the Emperor or the Warmaster.

And deeper inside, Doom Slayer leader Doom also started a duel with the demon Xia Lashi.

After being upgraded again, Doom, the King of Doom, is now caught in a tough battle.

To defeat the most favored Grand Keeper of Secrets in Slaanesh's realm is almost impossible.

The fight between the two sides was fierce and neither side could resolve the battle quickly.

Both of them were burning with incredible power, the primordial might was constantly pouring into their bodies. To some extent, they were also mythical beings.

In terms of martial arts, the Doom Slayer and the Scourge are evenly matched, and there is no clear winner in terms of willpower either.

One side fights for the common ideals of mankind, for precious hopes, and for revenge for past sufferings.

One side fights for her eternal ancient prince of darkness, striving to bring ultimate joy into the universe.

The wills of both sides are equally firm and cannot be shaken in the slightest by any external force.

As the battle progressed, Xia Laxi gradually put away his contempt for mortals.

The weak mortals who were once despised by her now also possess extraordinary powers and can even be on par with her.

She had to take it seriously, but even so, it was still difficult to find a way to defeat Doom quickly.

She had even been gradually suppressed and constantly hurt by the Sword of Judgment in Doom's hand.

"My dear, you really fascinate me. As long as you put down your weapons, maybe we can be happy forever." A charming smile appeared on Xia Laxi's face, and her words were like a spring breeze, blowing through the heart of the Slayer.

Every move of Slaanesh's favorite has a charm that mortals can hardly imagine. If such words were to fall into the mortal world, it would be enough to drive countless worlds crazy and willingly throw themselves into her arms.

In the realm of Slaanesh, the Great Keeper of Secrets has unimaginable power, and even his words can easily destroy countless worlds.

"No, you're too ugly. You have no appeal to me." Doom used his Argentin Chainsword to knock down the spear thrown by Xalahi and replied seriously.
"I would rather join my father in pushing all of you filthy creatures into eternal destruction."

Dum was very calm, but Xia Laxi was so angry that he kept roaring.

This was the first time that a self-proclaimed perfect secret keeper had received such an evaluation.

The two sides fought fiercely together again.

On the ground, the coalition forces that were still attacking also encountered trouble at this time.

The power of chaos was constantly eroding their consciousness, causing them heavy losses.

The Crusaders led by the State Religion are responsible for logistics. During the battle, they are also looking for ways to evacuate from the trap.

But they realized in despair that even the Void Beacon had lost its effectiveness at this moment. Slaanesh had pulled her temple into a dimension that did not belong to this universe and completely sealed them off.

The terror of the God of Chaos once again breeds despair in everyone's hearts.
