Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 277 Guilliman, Rhodes, you are the Warmaster and launch the Indomitable Crusade (two in one)
More than half a month later, Rhodes' fleet arrived safely at the Macragge system, tore open the warp rift, and a large number of fleets appeared above Macragge.

At this time, Guilliman was already wearing a blue power armor, waiting here for Rod's triumphant return. After the two sides met, they first hugged each other very friendly.

Then Rhodes began to accept the cheers of the people. At this time, Rhodes, as the Emperor's chosen one, waved to the ordinary people in a friendly manner.

Under the guidance of Guilliman, Rhodes entered the Hera Fortress on the planet Macragge. After meeting with a group of Macragge's senior officials, the two came to Guilliman's study.

Guilliman knew that Rhodes did not like overly complicated etiquette, so he only held a brief symbolic welcome ceremony and did not make Rhodes feel too embarrassed.

"Welcome back, my brother! You brought us victory, a long-awaited victory!

This victory will inspire the entire Imperium! The Tyranids are not invincible." Guilliman said.

This is just one tentacle of the Leviathan branch. There are several tentacles like this. The most powerful one is still fighting a bloody battle with the orcs in the Octares region. This war will determine the fate of the empire to a certain extent.

A certain wisecracking Inquisitor might well cultivate a behemoth that the Empire cannot face. No matter whether the winner is the Tyranids or the Orks, the Empire cannot deal with them.

The defense line is not broken now, and it is only in the initial stage of construction. However, Guilliman is skeptical whether this defense line can hold out against the Tyranids or Orks after the victory.

Although the two sides have not yet decided the winner, according to some intelligence analysis, the Orks are at a disadvantage. Once this tentacle of the Tyranids is full, it will be an extremely terrifying fleet, more powerful than the Tyranid fleet entrenched in the Baal galaxy.

"Stop praising me! This war is indeed difficult to fight. If I didn't have special technology, I'm afraid you wouldn't see me." Rhodes waved his hand and said.

Only after actually fighting the Tyranids did you understand how terrifying these bugs were. Even though you defeated the Tyranids, you were just a small vanguard unit.

When the real main force of the Tyranids arrives in the Milky Way in a few hundred years, that would be the real terror. If it weren't for the threat of the Tyranids, with the power Rhodes controls now, he could basically walk sideways.

I still have to continue upgrading the system store and summon more powerful monsters.

"I have learned the details of this battle. The Tyranids are indeed terrifying. According to my estimation, the number of our Space Marines and the number of Astra Militarum can barely deal with the Tyranids." Guilliman nodded in agreement.

Only those who have truly seen the Tyranids can understand how terrifying these guys are. He saw the war this time with his own eyes, not just by reading the information.

Through the perspective of the subspace, he was able to glimpse the power of this terrifying race and get a glimpse of the mysterious corner of the Great Devourer.

"To put it bluntly, the number of Space Marines in the Astra Militarum is only enough to quell the sporadic Tyranid invasions into the Milky Way.

When the real Great Devourer comes, it will be almost impossible for humans to outnumber these bugs." Rhodes shook his head and said.

This time, if it weren't for Patton's special cry that suppressed the Tyranid Hive Fleet, launched a decapitation tactic, and blew up the Tyranid Hive Mothership.

The terrifying number of biological ships alone was enough to wear Rhodes down to death.

"We need some allies. We humans can't stop these monsters alone." Guilliman sighed and spoke.

"Let's talk about this after we complete the Terra expedition. How are your preparations going? My army is ready to set out at any time.

This time, they have been baptized by the Tyranid Zerg War and are already qualified warriors, and I have also recruited the Space Shark Regiment." Rhode asked.

"It's all right now. In fact, you don't need to prepare too much, just your two space fortresses.

We can fit all of our Space Marines in it, plus the Mechanicus' Ark, and one fleet is just a symbolic escort." Guilliman said.

Without Rhodes' two space carriers, they would need a large fleet of at least several hundred ships to transport nearly a million space warriors to Holy Terra.

And hundreds of battle barges sailing towards Holy Terra will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the High Lords.

But with Rhodes' space carrier, they only needed to gather a few battle barges and go over there. They didn't need to bring mortal troops anyway.

If it were just a few battle barges, the Terran side would not have any suspicion and would just think that Guilliman was returning to Holy Terra to visit his father.

This time, the two of them were rebelling, and they had to ensure 100% success. Guilliman basically hid Rhodes' affairs completely.

He even announced to the outside world that Rhodes led the army only to quell a rebellion of a group of low-level aliens, and was not going to support the Baal galaxy at all.

These returning mortal armies will also be temporarily kept under guard to prevent them from talking nonsense. Once their armies arrive at Holy Terra, everything will be settled.

"No problem. The new space carrier I got can accommodate at least another 600,000 or 700,000 space warriors." Rhodes nodded.

The two highest-level motherships can each accommodate 150 million people, and the interior space of the spacecraft is enormous.

“Since you are back, we will set off tomorrow, the sooner the better. After arriving at Holy Terra, we must quickly resolve the issue of Holy Terra.

Completely control the entire empire. At that time, I will become the regent of the empire and sit in Terra to handle the internal affairs of the empire.

And you, my brother Rod, you will become the Imperial Warmaster and launch a large-scale expedition to recover the lost territories of the Empire and boost the morale of the Empire.

Prove to all the people of the Empire that you are the new Primarch, you will launch the Indomitus Crusade, and I will gather a huge fleet for you. "Guilliman said.

"??? Wait a minute! Guilliman, you, you mean that I should launch the Indomitable Crusade?" Rhodes opened his mouth wide and looked at Guilliman in disbelief.

Not Big Brother! What are you doing?
Weren't you the one who launched the Indomitable Crusade? Why me?

"Of course you will lead the expedition, and I will stay in Holy Terra to mobilize the army for you and provide logistical supplies! Is there something wrong?" Guilliman looked at Rhodes in surprise.

My arrangement is perfect! I am good at domestic affairs.

Rhodes, you are the most suitable person to lead the expedition. I will stay in Holy Terra and mobilize the resources of the entire empire to support you in launching the expedition.

"You want me to be the Warmaster of the Empire! Don't be ridiculous!" Rhodes asked. "I'm not kidding. I will be the Regent of the Empire, and you, Rhodes, will be the new Warmaster of the Empire and launch this grand expedition." Guilliman said.

"So, why wasn't it you who launched the expedition?" Rhodes asked.

Old Thirteen, shouldn't you be the one who launched the Indomitable Expedition?

"What are you thinking? You're the one who's going to lead the expedition!
"Are you willing to stay on Holy Terra? Provide me with logistical supplies and handle the various imperial affairs that pile up on Holy Terra every day?" Guilliman said speechlessly.

If there was only one awakened Primarch, and he had to support the entire empire by himself, then Guilliman would have no choice but to launch the expedition himself.

But now with Rhode and Elena, it would be the perfect choice for the couple to launch a new round of expedition!
Which of you two is good at handling the mountains of internal affairs documents? Which of you two can handle all the internal affairs of the empire in an orderly manner?

How about we switch gears? I'll fight in the front, and you'll handle the empire's internal affairs.

Rhodes touched his chin when he heard this. It seemed that this was indeed the case. He returned to the Empire as the Primarch.

Launching an expedition to recover the lost territories of the Imperium is indeed the best thing to do by oneself. Only when Guilliman is in charge of Holy Terra can he fully demonstrate his value.

With Guilliman in charge of Holy Terra, Rhodes doesn't need to worry about the army's logistical supplies and follow-up troop issues. Guilliman will solve these problems perfectly, and Rhodes only needs to lead the army forward!
So Guilliman will be the Regent, and I will be the Imperial Warmaster!
Damn, the term Imperial Warmaster is not very auspicious!
"Are you worried about Horus? Don't worry! Horus will never appear in front of the public of the Empire. I can be sure of that.

And Horus himself has no such intention. In the future, he will only hide in the dark to protect the empire and atone for his sins. "Guilliman said.

He thought Rhodes was worried about Horus, after all, Horus was the real first Imperial Warmaster.

"All right! I'll be the warmaster, that's all.

"I will just keep fighting. All the recovered planets, internal affairs and military logistics will be left to you," Rhode said.

Rhodes was not worried that Horus was unwilling, as Horus would not have any objections now.

He just felt a little strange. The benefits of becoming the Imperial Warmaster were enormous.

Becoming the Imperial Warmaster means controlling all the forces of the Indomitable Expedition Fleet, or even most of the Empire's forces. Rhodes has already considered how to deal with Tarasinn.

"No problem, of course I will handle these things, you and Elena just need to fight forward!" Guilliman said.

Finally convinced this guy Rhodes!
Now the entire empire is in a mess. I have to carry out a thorough rectification in the Holy Terra and deal with all the corruption in the empire.

“This time when I return to Holy Terra, I will make some minor upgrades to the Emperor’s Golden Throne.

The last time I went to repair the Golden Throne, I couldn't do it, but now with you here we can upgrade the Golden Throne." Rhode said.

This time, the scientists under his command can also make some upgrades to Old Man Huang’s Golden Throne to make the radiation area of ​​the Star Torch larger.

Many dark areas of the empire and even the edge of the galaxy will be illuminated.

"I understand. The two scientists under your command can come back at any time via a superluminal spacecraft." Guilliman said.

"Guilliman, I have one more thing I want to ask you for help with. My legion has no shortage of warriors, but it still lacks some psychic think tanks. Can you find some psykers for me? I want to train them to become my own think tank." Rhodes asked.

"Are you just thinking about setting up a think tank now? I had already prepared this for you when you went to Barr.

I started to prepare the think tank of the legion for you. I selected twenty suitable and powerful psychics from thousands of black ships.
I also personally provided them with some spiritual reinforcements.

Make their mental strength stronger, safer and more stable. Now these people are training with Digris, waiting for you to come back and perform the Space Marine transformation surgery on them. "Guilliman said.

"Then I feel relieved. However, I have also brought a new consultant with me for training. He can help Blood Angels Chapter Captain Dante. I have seconded their chapter think tank Mephiston to me to serve as my consultant." Rhodes said.

Our Regent Ji, the Thirteenth Master, is still awesome!

Before he set out for Barr, he had already started thinking about setting up a think tank for himself.

"This is even better. Let him take over from Digris and let him train these psykers." Guilliman nodded and said.

Rhodes nodded, chatted with Guilliman for a while, discussed the handover of psychics, and then said goodbye and left.

Therefore, if I mobilize my troops to go on an expedition, then I will have to fight the Plague War, Exorcism of the Dead Zone, Psychic Awakening, and even the future Alert Star War by myself!

This is a good thing! This is a steady stream of system coins!

After returning to her mansion, Elena came to Rhodes.

"What's wrong with you, Rod? You seem to have something on your mind?" Elena asked.

"I'm just thinking about launching expeditions in the future, Elena. After we arrive at Holy Terra, we probably won't be able to rest for long before we get busy again.

A grand expedition is waiting for us, and this expedition may last for a hundred years." Rhodes said.

Let's give my little nun a shot of prevention first! In this Warhammer universe, I can't sit still.

"Expedition? An expedition lasting a hundred years!
Rhodes! Are you planning to launch a great crusade like the Emperor did?"

"It's not as terrifying as the Emperor's Great Crusade, but it's not much different. This time it's mainly to recover the lost territory of the Empire. The two of us will have to spend the next 100 years on ships." Rhodes said.

"It doesn't matter. As long as I can follow you, it's fine." Elena said.
