Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 213: Recruiting the Grand Marshal of the Black Templar

Among all the Space Marine chapters, the Black Templars are definitely the most famous. They are the Emperor's champion knights.

In terms of individual combat power, perhaps only the Grey Knights are stronger than them. This is the only chapter in the Warhammer world that is more famous than its parent group in terms of both number of people and combat power.

"If you want, I can also upgrade you." Rhodes said.

Rhodes wanted to recruit these Black Templars directly. His own legion had just been established, and he had no shortage of manpower, but what he lacked were veteran warriors with rich combat experience.

The Black Templars were definitely the most suitable group, and Rhodes had done them a great favor.

Rhodes saved them on the battlefield, and Rhodes' wife also killed their eternal enemy Abaddon, avenging the first Supreme Marshal Sigismund.

So Rhodes wanted to recruit these people into his army and let this grand marshal serve as the company commander in the legion.

Now he has only two company commanders under his command, one is Titus and the other is the Supreme Lord Creed.

As soon as these words were spoken, the Marshal of the Black Templar fell silent. To be honest, he was very envious of these Primaris Super Space Marines who had stronger physiques.

Even more terrifying power, more agile speed, quicker reaction, and through recent contact, he also discovered these Space Marines who received Lord Rhodes' gene seeds.

They all possess a very powerful transformation ability, and they can more than double their strength and speed in a short period of time.

And there are no side effects afterwards. The transformation can be cancelled within a certain period of time and the person is still able to continue fighting.

The Belisarius Furnace secretes a very magical substance that restores their strength and speeds up their metabolism.

The strength of these Primaris Super Space Marines is far beyond imagination, even after the battle between the Admiral Guard from ten thousand years ago and these Ashtars of the new era.

They were all amazed at them. Their attributes in all aspects were actually not much different from those of the Imperial Guards. It was just their combat experience that was slightly inferior to that of the Imperial Guards.

However, the only thing that bothered him was that this violated the Codex Astartes, although their Black Templars were not bound by the rules of the Codex in terms of numbers.

But this new era of Astartes monks was still a huge shock to the warriors of the old era.

"Tell the truth, Lord Rhodes!

I really want to accept this new era of space warrior surgery, but you know the situation? The high lords of the empire may not accept this kind of thing. "The Marshal of the Black Templar, Avalrich, said.

The new Space Marine transformation surgery, coupled with the restoration of the legion system, was even seen as a betrayal of the Empire by some conservative chapters.

“The main reason why this set of holy scriptures was compiled was because the Great Rebellion had just ended and the empire could not withstand the blow of another rebellion.

In fact, according to Robert Guilliman's original plan, and even the Emperor's own intention, this Astartes ceremony would only be implemented for a few hundred years, and the legion system would be restored.

Who could have imagined that this set of improvised things would be used for thousands of years? This set of nonsense scriptures would soon be abolished.

Those who are willing to accept will board the ship of the new era, and those who are unwilling will sink with the ship of the old era." Rhodes said.

"Lord Rhodes! I believe you. This is the Emperor's intention. If you, Robert, Guilliman and Elena, the three Primarchs, propose it together, then it is indeed possible to restore the legion system." Grand Marshal Avarrich of the Black Templars said. (The Grand Marshal of the Black Templars is the position of company commander, and the Supreme Grand Marshal is the head of the chapter. To a certain extent, the Grand Marshal has more power than the company commander.)
"I value you Black Templar warriors very much. Are you interested in joining my legion and exchanging your gene seeds for mine?" Rhodes said.

"This! Lord Rhodes! Please don't joke. We are the descendants of Rogal Dorn, and all of us members of the Black Templar are proud of it." Avaric quickly refused.

"My gene seed creates a new era of Astartes, which has more powerful combat capabilities, even if it uses the same technology.

But my gene seed will give them two special abilities, one of which is the kind of violent transformation you have seen.

And the other is the survivability in outer space, which you may not know, even without carrying any equipment.

They can also survive in the vacuum of the universe, not just barely, but truly." Rhodes said.

“Thank you very much for your appreciation, but Lord Rhodes, we are all descendants of Rogal Dorn, and we will soon receive this new transformation technology in the future.

But the gene seed will not be replaced." The Grand Marshal of the Black Templar smiled and said.

This really made him a little flattered. He didn't expect that the new Primarch actually wanted them to become his genetic offspring.

“My legion has just been created and needs some talent management. If you are willing to join my legion, then I can make the decision.

Abaddon's head, body, and the remains of his Terminator armor were taken.

I will give them all to the current Supreme Marshal of the Black Templar, and let you use them to pay tribute to Sigismund. "Rhode smiled and threw out the trump card in his hand. I don't believe you can resist this temptation. This has been the only goal of the Black Templar for thousands of years.

To achieve this goal, countless Black Templars' Champions of the Emperor and countless Black Templars' Space Marines have died on the battlefield.

"This! Lord Rhodes, you, you are not kidding, right? You want to hand over Abaddon's body and the remains of his Terminator armor to our Black Templar!" Marshal Avarrich looked at Rhodes in disbelief and asked.

The Black Templars want Abaddon's body so much!
This is the best tribute to Sigismund, and the best gift to the descendants of Rogal Dorn!

"You heard me right, and I wasn't kidding. My new legion is lacking some talent, and your Black Templars are second to none among all the Space Marine chapters in the entire empire.

Besides, being my genetic offspring means serving the Empire. Don't you want to send Abaddon's body back to the Black Templar's flagship to commemorate the deceased Sigismund?" Rhodes asked.

"Lord Rhodes, I, I really want to do this, but, but I." To be honest, he really wanted to agree, but he couldn't get over the hurdle of giving up his existing gene seed and replacing it with Lord Rhodes' gene seed.

“In the future, I can give priority to providing these modified superhuman organs to members of your Black Templars, allowing your fighting brothers to become the first batch of upgraded original space marines.

You also know that this kind of superhuman organ is very difficult to produce, and you are a rare talent.

For your sake, I can give your Black Templar some benefits. I hope you can pass on your Black Templar's advanced tactics and that kind of indomitable courage to my legion.

Wouldn't you like to pass on Sigismund's courage and spirit to my legion?" Rhodes said.

My legion has Gomora's violent transformation, which is very suitable for Sigismund's violent tactics!

"Lord Rod! Do you really value me and Lord Sigismund so much?" Avarrich asked Rod.

I didn't expect that this new era Primarch would think so highly of me! He thought so highly of the first Supreme Marshal Sigismund.

"Sigismund was a heroic figure. When he fought Abaddon, he was already 1000 years old and his body was no longer in its prime.

But Abaddon accepted the blessing of the four Chaos Gods. If the two sides were equal in strength, I think Abaddon would definitely not be a match for the first Supreme Marshal. "Rhode said.

Rhodes said this sincerely. The real fighting power of this Gismond was even stronger than that of the ordinary imperial guards.

He can be said to be the real ceiling of combat power among the Space Marines. How could he be weak if he could severely injure Abaddon, who was blessed by the Four Chaos Gods, with his old body!

“Lord Rhodes, thank you very much for your recognition of the Black Templar and the first Supreme Grand Marshal.

It is my honor and the honor of the entire Black Templar.

I would like to contact the current Supreme Marshal through star language. If he agrees, then I am willing to accept your favor.

I will become your genetic offspring and pass on the fighting spirit of our Black Templar to your legion." Finally, Avarrich knelt in front of Rhodes.

As the saying goes, a scholar will die for his confidant!

Lord Rhodes valued them so much and respected Lord Sigismund so much, he had no reason to refuse this kindness.

"No problem. I happen to be able to communicate via astropathic communication. I will personally talk to the current Supreme Marshal of your Black Templar about this matter.

And I promise you that I will take care of all the Primaris surgery upgrades for all the current members of your Black Templar." Rhodes nodded with satisfaction and said.

The addition of these 100-plus people from the Black Templar will be a huge boost to their own legion.

Moreover, his own gene seeds are more suitable for this group of crazy people who fight to the death.

They are able to lead new recruits, but except for the Death Watch group, all the other soldiers under their command are a bunch of new recruits!

NCOs, adjutants, company commanders, everything is missing.

The Marshal of the Black Templar, Avarrich, can come here and serve as a company commander.

"Thank you very much for your generosity, Lord Rod!" Avarrich said, kneeling on the ground.

By this point he no longer had any concerns.

"Let's go! Let's go talk to the current Supreme Marshal of the Black Templar." Rhodes said.
