Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 426: The Giant Empire's High-End Combat Strength Standard, Selling a Favor to the Lion King

The Emperor looked at his eldest son speechlessly. He was clearly a Primarch with abilities far beyond those of humans.

It even surpasses the brain of today's best computers, but why doesn't your brain work so well?

You've gained gigantism and awakened the soul of God, so you're so arrogant? Rhode's strength is not much worse than that of a secondary God, and he's even stronger!
And since they can give you the power of the cosmic beast, they can naturally take it back. Where on earth do you get the confidence from, you idiot? Challenge again!

The lion king opened his mouth when he heard this, but ultimately said nothing. He had indeed awakened, and his divine soul had become a super life form, gaining enormous power.

This made him feel infinitely inflated, and he felt that his strength was already enough to compete with the opponent.

But thinking about the battle just now, Rhodes was able to beat him in human form, and after becoming giant, he was worthy of being his opponent!

"If you want to fight, then let the two of us accompany you! The cosmic fantasy beast I merged with is named Golzan. It possesses extremely violent fire attribute power and is also an extremely warlike cosmic fantasy beast." Vulcan said.

"My cosmic phantom beast is called the Cosmic Basalt. It possesses the ultimate defensive power. Its defensive power is not much worse than Rhodes, and it may even be a little stronger." Guilliman said.

The corners of the lion king Leon's mouth twitched. It seemed that he would have many fights in the future.

"If you are not satisfied with these two, I still have a group of imperial guards under my command. These imperial guards have also undergone gigantic surgery and can now fight in gigantic form." said the emperor.

"What? Father, you said that the Imperial Guards can also become giant?" The Lion King Leon asked in shock.

"Yes! Now, gigantism is the standard for the empire's high-end combat power, not just the imperial guards under my command.

Now some dreadnought mechas can also be transformed into giants, turning into powerful Titan units, and these Titan units can be transformed freely and operate flexibly.

In addition, my Imperial Guards have also been strengthened. After all, the new era Astartes are all based on the Imperial Guards. If my Imperial Guards are too weak, it will not be good enough!" said the Emperor.

Now there is a quota for the transformation of a Forbidden Guard Super Beast every month. In one year, 12 Forbidden Guards can be transformed. In 100 years, 1200 Forbidden Guards can be transformed.

Moreover, as time goes by, Rhodes will have more and more opportunities to transform himself, and the number of places will increase. In 200 years at most, all the imperial guards will complete the transformation into super beasts.

After transforming into super beasts, the melee combat capability of the Imperial Guards is not much worse than that of the Primarchs. The Imperial Guards even possess light skills and the ability to fly.

The fantasy beasts of the universe are indeed magical, but the super beasts created by the Abel people are not much worse than them, and they are even more suitable biological weapons!

"It seems that I still have a lot to learn. This new era is a little strange to me!" The Lion King sighed.

"By the way, there is one more matter for you to handle. It is about your genetic offspring." The Emperor told Leon everything about the Dark Angels.

"So this kind of thing happened after I fell unconscious. What a bunch of idiots!" Leon said, covering his head in pain.

He had nothing to say about the Dark Angels' punishment; serving in the Death Watch for 100 years and then being able to return to the parent group was already the most merciful punishment.

"I give you the right to deal with the fallen angels and Luther. I will not interfere no matter how you deal with them, but I hope you will give everyone fairness and not let your emotions influence your judgment." said the Emperor.

This was a test for his eldest son, to see if he could put aside his feelings, make a truly fair judgment, and not be swayed by his emotions.

Do you want to protect Luther or punish him fairly?

"Father! All the fallen angels were just caught in a misunderstanding. I decided to pardon them and let them return to the Dark Angels.

As for those fallen angels who have completely surrendered to Chaos, I will personally put an end to them completely." The Lion King first pardoned all the fallen angels.

As long as they have not completely surrendered to Chaos, all the fallen angels are misunderstood, and he can forgive these genetic offspring.

As for those who defected to the forces of chaos, no matter what happened before, since they could not stick to their original intentions, they would have to pay the price for their choice.

“From now on, all the fallen angels, as long as they have not defected to Chaos, and are willing to return, will be members of the Dark Angels.” Leon said.

“I support your decision, but what about the last prisoner?

How will you deal with Luther, who once betrayed you, caused the division of your legion, caused you to be in a coma for ten thousand years, and caused the destruction of the entire Caliban home planet?" the Emperor asked.

After hearing this, Leon fell silent. His heart began to struggle madly. He wanted to forgive his former best friend and best comrade-in-arms.

But reason told him that he couldn't forgive Luther just like that. It wasn't that his mistakes no longer existed after he regretted them!
At this time, Leon already understood that his father was testing him, and he finally understood why his father did not allow him to serve as the empire's war commander.

As the warmaster of the empire, you must be fair to everyone, not partial to certain people. If two people make mistakes at the same time, you will punish them without hesitation, but if it is someone who is close to you, can you still punish him cruelly? Will you give him a backdoor?

Sorry, Luther, you have to pay the price for your actions, no matter your original intention, no matter whether you confess to me in the end.

"Father! What should we do according to the laws of the empire?" Leon asked, gritting his teeth.

"Death is his only destination! He is not even worthy of returning to the Golden Throne." Guilliman said.

He had no good face towards the culprit who caused his eldest brother to fall into a coma for ten thousand years, caused the Dark Angels to become extreme, and caused the Dark Angels to commit all kinds of evil deeds.

It turns out that the Dark Angel was a loyal guard of the Empire, but in order to keep your secret, he turned into a demon.

At this time, Rhodes also looked at the emperor with interest. "You yellow-skinned guy, you say one thing but do another!"

Why are you talking so much? When we first met, didn't you ask me to help revive Horus? Didn't Horus's mistakes turn out to be minor?

Compared to him, Luther is nothing, and even Magnus is there, but the Emperor is more concerned about these people because they are still useful to him, to the Empire, and to the human race.

If a Primarch threatens the human race, the Emperor will not hesitate to exterminate them, and that includes all of them.

"Let him launch a redemption expedition! Instead of letting him die at the hands of his own people, it is better to let him fight against the forces of chaos." Rhodes said.

"Rod is right. It is indeed a good choice to arrange for him to go on the atonement expedition." Lion King Leon said immediately.

He never dreamed that it was Rhodes who spoke up for him. He had originally planned to kill Luther, his best friend, with his own hands.

Dying on the battlefield may be the best destination for a knight like you. If you can complete the expedition of atonement and come back, you will be forgiven of all your sins and return to the empire.

"Then arrange for him to launch a redemption expedition! But he has no army of his own, and no spaceship of his own." said the Emperor.

Since the power of trial has been given to Leon, he will not interfere no matter what choice his eldest son makes. You will have to bear the price yourself.

“Every year, some Space Marines in the Empire are investigated by the Inquisition, and many of them are considered heretics.

They are all locked up in the cells of the Tribunal. There are at least several thousand of them. Why don't we select some of them to use?" Rhodes said.

Some of these Space Marines imprisoned by the Inquisition do have problems, but some of them are actually just like Titus back then, harmed by this insane Empire!

For those Space Marines who were framed and falsely accused, Rhodes could directly let the psychics explore their memories, and release them after confirming that they had no thoughts of surrendering to Chaos.

But for those who have already had dirty thoughts, or even committed some crimes, such as attacking mortals of the Empire because of some genetic defects, these Space Marines can launch a sin-atonement expedition.

"Then let's do as Rhode says! I will select these people. I will select more than 200 redeemed space warriors for Luther to launch a redemption expedition.

If they can kill a Chaos Champion and recover some territory for the Imperium, they will be pardoned for their crimes," Guilliman said.

"Well! It's decided. You guys should have a good rest.

One month later, we will go to Mars to kill the fragments of the Void Dragon, and let the cosmic beasts under Rhode devour the fragments of the Void Dragon." The Emperor said.

Now that his eldest son has returned, it is time to take action on the Void Dragon fragments.

After discussing everything, Rhodes and Elena led their son back to the palace.

"Rod, why did you speak for the Lion King today?" Elena asked.

In her opinion, Luther was unforgivable and should be sentenced to death immediately. He was not even qualified to participate in the Atonement Expedition.

"I'm giving the Lion King a favor today. The Lion King owes me a huge favor.

And have you forgotten about Horus? If Horus says he is second in terms of damage to the empire, who dares to claim to be first?" Rhodes said.

"You are right. We should tell the Lion King about Horus, and Vulkan too!" Elena asked.
