Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 479 The Role of Cloning Luo Jia, Fusing with Small-Scale Cosmic Beasts
This was something he, the clone, had always dreamed of; it was an opportunity to surpass the original and even the original gene.

Rhodes nodded with great satisfaction. Professional matters should be left to professionals. In the entire Warhammer universe, if anyone is number one in proselytizing, then the person in front of him is second to none.

In fact, Rhodes had considered bringing back the original Luojia to help him spread his religion, but after thinking it over, he gave up on the idea.

The original Luo Jia still possessed the pride of a Primarch and would never submit to Rhodes. Rhodes' current strength was not enough to make him a god in Luo Jia's heart.

The Primarchs' pride is no joke, even after their fall from grace. Moreover, the Empire, whether it's the Emperor or other Primarchs, has a very poor impression of the Loka.

Therefore, the best choice is naturally this clone. This clone is penniless and has nothing, but Rhodes will give him everything he wants, even surpassing his original self.

“Serving me is the best decision you’ve ever made. You’ll get things you can’t even imagine,” Rhodes said.

“Of course, my God,” Luo Jia asked.

His original self once worshipped the emperor with unparalleled devotion, regarding him as a god. He was willing to do anything, even at the cost of his life, as long as the emperor gave the word.

But the Emperor betrayed him, destroying the Perfect City and refusing to acknowledge himself as a god. He then fell into a state of numbness until he encountered the true god in the warp.

Then a conspiracy against Horus was launched, and in the end, the Warmaster was successfully corrupted, while Loka himself died after the Great Rebellion ended.

Disheartened, he returned to the warp and transformed into a chaotic, undifferentiated demon prince. He did not pledge allegiance to any of the chaos gods, but instead chose to hide away.

This clone of his only has memories of the time before the betrayal. He has lost the original's memories of the time after the betrayal because the power of chaos had already invaded the body's cells, making them no longer pure.

The prison where the clones were imprisoned opened, and Luo Jia walked out shakily. She then knelt on one knee in front of Rhodes and showered him with countless words of praise.

"Come with me!" Rhodes beckoned to Luo Jia to follow him, and Luo Jia nodded and followed behind Rhodes with a respectful expression.

"Next, you will be writing a book for me, and soon you will begin your mission. During this time, I will prepare a cosmic beast for you. What type of cosmic beast do you like?" Rhodes asked.

Although it is a clone, it is still a cloned original gene, and its overall strength is still above that of the Imperial Guard. Rhodes naturally did not intend to fool Luo Jia with an ordinary small cosmic beast.

Therefore, we need to prepare a genuine low-level cosmic beast that can truly reach the level of the Primarch in the current era.

“Great God, whatever you bestow upon me is a blessing, and I dare not ask for anything from you,” Luo Jia said.

As servants of a great God, how dare I make any demands?

“Be serious, I’m talking about the one that’s most suitable for you. You only get one chance to choose a cosmic beast,” Rhodes said.

"In that case, great god, I desire a cosmic beast that possesses the power of flight, can survive in outer space, and can fly freely," Luo Jia said.

Having the ability to fly is a huge advantage; Sangilius, the only Primarch who can fly, can take on an Emperor-class Titan by virtue of his agility and speed.

Having extremely high speed to survive in outer space is a huge advantage.

“I understand. The cosmic beast I prepared for you is called Bemstar. It’s a giant bird monster that has the ability to travel faster than the speed of light in space, as well as the ability to fly and a terrifying ability to devour.” Rhodes said.

The only one that fits the requirements is Bemstar. His old monsters are basically no longer able to fight, so transforming them all into cosmic beasts to increase their intelligence and life level is a good choice.

Everything will proceed once the space necromancer overlord Anlakel arrives. Rhodes still needs to accumulate a batch of system gold coins, as his current system gold coins are not enough to exchange for a single enhancement of a cosmic beast. He needs to put in some effort at the Demon Ranch and the orcs, or perhaps launch an attack on Black Sprout. In any case, he needs to gather at least 200 million system gold coins as soon as possible.

“Great God, thank you for your blessings upon me,” Luo Jia said.

"You still can't move freely inside the spaceship. Your identity is definitely unacceptable to the outside world. I will arrange a room for you to write scriptures and classics."

"Once the cosmic beast is successfully trained, you can fuse with it. Keep your height between three meters and two meters as you go. Then you can walk freely while wearing the helmet," Rhodes said.

"Yes, Your Majesty! I will certainly complete my work diligently," Luo Jia asked.

"Hmm!" Rodrod nodded with great satisfaction, led Luo Jia to the secret room, and then let her stay there for the time being.

After dealing with the issue of cloning the Primarch, Rhodes immediately summoned Titus and Tidaros and had them select four Space Marines to assemble in the training room that evening.

Upon receiving the order from the Father of Genes, Tiidas and Titus dared not delay and immediately selected four strong warriors, all of whom were company commanders.

That evening, as instructed by Rod, he went to the training room.

At this moment, in the training room, the Beast Queen Zoga had successfully hatched four small Zoga.

These small mythical beasts, Zoga, reach a height of 3.5 meters and a length of 5 meters. As for weight, cosmic mythical beasts are pure energy life forms, so they have no weight. They are life forms composed purely of energy.

“Great Father of Genetics, as you commanded, we have brought the men. They are all excellent warriors, company commanders in the legion,” Titus said, bowing to Rhodes.

"Yes! You've done very well. Next, a very sacred mission awaits you. You should have heard about the cosmic monsters."

A complete Cosmic Beast can transform an ordinary person into a Primitive-level life form, and through some special means, I have cultivated several small Cosmic Beasts.

These cosmic beasts can't turn you into super life forms, but they can enhance your cosmic beast fighting techniques and significantly increase your lifespan and strength, making your combat power at least double.

"And you four are the ones I've chosen to fuse with small-scale cosmic beasts. Are you willing to accept this mission?" Rhode asked.

The four chosen genetic offspring immediately stood at attention, bowed to Rhodes, and then gave an Imperial Eagle salute. "Great Father of Genetics, it is a great honor. We are willing to undergo this test," the four chosen Space Marines said.

“You have not disappointed me. Relax your bodies, relax your minds, and prepare to receive this new power!” Rhodes said.

Most of their offspring have been practicing the Cosmic Beast Fist Technique for a long time, and their bodies contain residual energy from Cosmic Beasts.

Now is the perfect time to merge with these small cosmic beasts.

Soon, four small mythical beasts, Zoga, were released by Rhode. These small mythical beasts, created by Zoga the Beast Queen, did not inherit his dual attributes of lightning and fire, but only inherited either lightning or fire attributes. Therefore, two of them could manipulate fire, and two could manipulate lightning.

Four small cosmic beasts transformed into red and blue rays of light, which flowed into the bodies of the four Space Marines respectively.

The four small Cosmic Beasts, Zoga, transformed into red and blue light and instantly merged into the bodies of the four Space Marines, whose power began to fuse within them.

The air in the training room seemed to freeze, and everyone's eyes were focused on the four soldiers, waiting for a miracle to happen.

At first, the four warriors trembled slightly, as if they were enduring some kind of enormous energy impact.

Fine cracks began to appear on the surface of their armor, and energy leaked out from the cracks, forming flashing arcs of electricity and leaping flames.

Immediately afterwards, their bodies were gradually enveloped by a faint aura of energy, as if they had merged with the power of the cosmic beasts.

The first warrior's body jolted violently, his eyes snapped open, and blazing flames flickered in his pupils.

With a wave of his arm, a blazing pillar of fire erupted from his palm, instantly turning a corner of the training room bright red, flames swirling around him.

They can freely manipulate the power of fire at will, and their mastery of the Cosmic Beast Fist Technique can be executed even more perfectly. The attacks they unleash will also be inflicted with fire effect damage, and they can even launch ranged attacks.

The power of the flames greatly enhanced its destructive force; he could now achieve effects with his bare hands that would otherwise require a molten metal weapon.

"Father of Genes, I have gained the power of fire. This is not the power of the subspace; it consumes my physical strength."

Rod nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.

"Great Father of Genetics, I have gained the power of thunder."

The second warrior was completely different; his body was enveloped in blue lightning.
A crackling sound rang out.

Blue arcs of electricity coiled around the Space Marine's body, granting him the power to manipulate lightning. His Cosmic Beast Fist technique was also enhanced, allowing him to unleash lightning-based attacks.

Furthermore, they can unleash powerful lightning attacks just like some legitimate psionicists of the Empire, except that, unlike psionicists, the lightning power they unleash does not originate from the warp.

The third and fourth warriors also completed their fusion, their bodies becoming filled with the power of fire and lightning, respectively.

Of Rhodes' four genetic offspring, two gained the power of fire, and two gained the power of lightning.
"Success!" Rhodes nodded in satisfaction, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes.

These four warriors' power far surpasses that of ordinary Space Marines, and is even infinitely close to the level of the old Primarchs.

Their lifespan and combat power have been greatly enhanced, and the power of the Cosmic Beast Fist Technique has been perfectly demonstrated in them.

Now, unless Rhodes dies in battle or some other accident, his genetic offspring all have an average lifespan of around ten thousand years.

These beings who have fused with cosmic beasts could theoretically reach the level of super life forms if the cosmic beasts within them grow in the future.

"Great Father of Genes, thank you for your blessing!" the four warriors shouted in unison, kneeling on one knee and giving Rhodes the most solemn Imperial Skyhawk salute.

Their voices were filled with reverence and gratitude for Rhodes, a precious gift bestowed upon them by the father of great genes.

Rhodes smiled slightly and waved for them to stand up: "Your strength has made a qualitative leap, but this is only the beginning."

Next, you will shoulder an even more important mission: to fight for me on all fronts and eliminate all enemies of humanity.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Great Father of Genes!" the four warriors replied in unison, their eyes shining with unwavering determination. After fusing with the cosmic beast, their loyalty to the Father of Genes was beyond words.

"Titus and Tidaros, are you interested in fusing this special cosmic beast?" Rhodes asked.

After Tidarus followed him, he only underwent the Astartes surgery of the new era. Although his combat power was indeed very strong, he still did not have the ability to grow to gigantic size. Among his own army, only Titus was the only one with the ability to grow to gigantic size.

However, Titus does not possess the power of a cosmic beast. Previously, there was no way to provide him with one, but now it is possible to prepare a small cosmic beast for the two of them.

Titus's physical body is a super life form, and his body can also help the cosmic beasts evolve better. As for Tidarrosrod, he can also undergo a super beast transformation surgery.

“It is a great honor, great father of genes,” Titanus and Tiidas bowed to Rhodes.

Being able to obtain the power of a cosmic mythical beast signifies the trust of the Father of Genetics.

Meanwhile, Luo Jia was quietly writing a classic text in a secret room. His pen flew across the paper, and his words were filled with praise and admiration for Luo De. He knew that he was about to undergo a transformation that would allow him to surpass his original self and become a true legend.

"Great God, thank you for giving me this opportunity," Luo Jia murmured, a fervent light flashing in his eyes.
