Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 580 Ruth's werewolf transformation, his return to the wolf pack

The King of Huskies—no, the Wolf King Lemanrus—was furious. He tolerated the fact that Magnus had returned to the Empire as a spy!

At worst, he could challenge Magnus to a duel later and avenge himself. After all, according to Fenris's custom, it was perfectly normal for brothers to fight each other, and it could even strengthen their friendship.

But what about Horus? What's his situation? Why did he return to the Empire? How do you defend Horus?
"Calm down, Horus! Horus was framed by Chaos back then!" Guilliman tried to calm the wolf king Lemanrus, who was already in a state of rage and bloodlust, but was interrupted by him.

"Don't fucking talk to me about this nonsense, I don't fucking want to hear it. That guy is a traitor, and the leader of all traitors. He is the leader, and he is the one who started the great rebellion!"

He's the one who got my father to sit on the golden throne. No matter how much my father loves him, he can't forgive this bastard for what he did. It's unfair to all of us!

"I'm going to find my father, and you're not allowed to stop me." He could obey his father on everything else, but not on this one thing.

Horus's return negates the sacrifices of the loyalists, negates the seven years of rebellion that resulted in the deaths of trillions of humans and the devastation of thousands of imperial worlds.

Guilliman sighed helplessly, then waved his hand to create a protective shield, trapping Lemanrus inside once again. "I can't let you disturb your father right now."

"Calm down, listen to me, Leman Russ. Right now, you can't go anywhere or do anything except stand here and listen to me!"
"If you can't calm down, then I'll help you calm down. I'll lock you up for a few years first." Guilliman was truly angry this time.

This rabid wolf, people often say you are a civilized person disguised as a beast, but Lion King Leon is the beast disguised as a civilized person.

Look at what you're doing right now!
Your father has already told you that he is doing something that is of vital importance to humanity, even a matter of life and death, yet you won't bother him with such a trivial matter.

"Horus was the first Primarch to be sacrificed, after he was carried into the temple and stabbed by the dagger cursed by the god of chaos."

His soul was already dead. At that time, his body was controlled by the four Chaos Gods, plus some memories of his original body. If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have ventured alone into Holy Terra.

You should know how terrifying it would be if Rus and Horus had chosen to proceed cautiously and gradually erode the empire's territory.

My father is trapped on the Golden Throne and cannot leave the entire galaxy. Who can deal with him?
It's me! Or you, or Saint Gilles, we will all be defeated by Horus one by one, you know his power.

With the help of the warp, he could devour the entire empire in just a few decades. Once he had surrounded Holy Terra, our father would be doomed.

Horus, clinging to the last vestiges of his loyalty, ultimately chose to go to Holy Terra to face his father's judgment and died in that duel," Guilliman said.

Although the Ice Storm ability of the 500th world of Alteramar was terrifying at the time, if Horus was determined to kill him, he could have dealt with him first with the other rebellious Chaos Primarchs, and then the Chaos army would have been overwhelming. In that case, Horus would have been utterly useless!
All Primarchs knew perfectly well how powerful Horus's military talent and leadership were!

If Horus were to proceed cautiously and steadily, the Emperor, trapped on the Golden Throne, would have virtually no chance of winning. In fact, framing Magnus would be the first step in Horus's plan!
If Magnus were on the side of the central city, then the rebels wouldn't need to fight, because once the Emperor leaves the Golden Throne, they would have no chance of winning.

"You, you mean, Saint Gilles died in vain? That guy Ferrusmanus died in vain? All our genetic offspring died in vain!" Lemanrus asked furiously.

"Sacrifice is the cornerstone of the empire. In these 1 years, you only need to read a little bit of the empire's history to know how much humanity has sacrificed!"
The great rebellion of that time was indeed a devastating blow to humanity! But what are you planning to do now?
"Go and kill Horus? And then plunge the Empire into an even more perilous situation? Are you starting a Lemanrus rebellion?" Guilliman immediately began to retort.

“I am the most loyal Primarch, and I will never betray my father.”

"The most loyal Primarch, as your father has already explained, and now you want to question him, especially at this crucial moment?"
Tell me, Lemanrus, are you still willing to pledge allegiance to the Empire and to the Emperor?

"If your answer is no, then I can execute you right now." Guilliman unleashed his full psionic power, the aura of the cosmic beast pressing down so hard it was hard to breathe.

The Primarch's power after the upgrade is far beyond what the old Primarch could imagine; the difference in strength between the two is as huge as the difference between the Custodians and the original Space Marines.

“Moreover, Shen Giles has now been resurrected, and he has even reconciled with Horus. The two are even fighting side by side in the dark side of the Empire. So who are you going to avenge?” Guilliman said.

Leman Russ gritted his teeth and glared at Guilliman, finally letting out a helpless sigh. He sat silently inside the protective shield without saying a word.

"Don't fucking play dumb with me! Lemanrus, if you're a man, then..."

"Get your act together now! The Empire needs your strength, it needs you to lead the Space Wolves," Guilliman said.

"I understand!" Lemanrus said with a cold snort.

Even if he was unwilling to accept it, even if he disliked Horus, he had no choice but to accept it all!
He had actually stayed in that place for over 1 years, missing out on too many important events in the empire, and his strength had even plummeted, leaving him far behind Guilliman!
There was a time when Guilliman was completely beneath him, just like Luo Jia, who was considered the weakest of the Primarchs in a one-on-one fight.

But now Guilliman only needs one move to trap him, and he can leave Guilliman helpless without even lifting a finger!
This huge difference in strength was hard for him to accept, but he was also curious as to why Guilliman, who was also a Primarch, had improved to such an extent.

“I know what you’re thinking, Ruth. Don’t worry, you will also gain this power as long as you remain loyal to the Empire and the Emperor.”

"Rhodes has already prepared a suitable cosmic beast for you." Guilliman saw through Lemanrus's thoughts at a glance.

"Your strength has increased significantly because of this thing called Cosmic Beast, right?" Lemanrus asked thoughtfully.

"It's not what you think. Cosmic Beasts are incredibly magical life forms. Even ordinary humans can become Primarch-level life forms after fusing with them." Guilliman explained the benefits of fusing with Cosmic Beasts to Wolf King Lemanrus in great detail.

This has now become standard equipment for their Primarchs, and Rhodes even has several Space Marines under his command who have fused with Cosmic Beasts.

Rod released Ulffaya with a smile on his face. This monster had been enhanced to the extreme and had been redeemed a long time ago.

Ulffaya, a wolf-like monster, is 53 meters tall and weighs 42000 tons, but after being enhanced, his weight has reached 5 tons!

Standing a towering 62 meters tall, after undergoing cosmic transformation, it has become a crimson wolf possessing powerful fire attributes. Having the ability to manipulate fire in the frozen world of Fenris seems incredibly interesting to Rhode!
“Do not resist Lemanrus. Let my cosmic beast merge with you, and it will become your loyal companion in the future,” Rhodes said.

Wolf King Lemanrus nodded, relaxed, and then allowed the giant red wolf to enter his body.

The wolf-shaped monster, this new brother is very thoughtful, preparing a very suitable cosmic mythical beast for himself!

After Ulffaya and Lemanrus merged, the Wolf King's body trembled, and his entire body began a new round of evolution, with his psionic talents being completely unleashed.

Lemanrus's bones cracked, and crimson flames erupted from his pores.

Ulffaya—this cosmic beast from another world—is roaring deep within his genes, every muscle tearing and rebuilding, every drop of blood boiling and burning.

"Ah—!" The wolf king's scream turned into a wolf howl that shook the heavens.

His body began to swell, his armor melting and reforming in the crimson flames, forcing Guilliman to take a few steps back and raise his hand to shield himself from the oncoming heat.

Rhodes remained rooted to the spot, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "It seems he's adapting faster than any of you; Ulffaya's power is merging with him."

Guilliman nodded upon hearing this. This wolf-shaped cosmic beast was indeed very suitable for Russ, especially since its fire power matched his fiery temper.

Amidst the flames, the outline of a giant sixty meters tall gradually became clear.

Leman Russ's new form was more primitive than Guilliman's gigantism—his helmet was completely integrated into his face, forming a true wolf's head; his nails extended into gleaming claws; and a burning tail even grew from the end of his spine.

After the fusion was complete, the gigantic Lemanrus looked incredibly majestic.

Lemanrus felt his current power, felt his unparalleled strength.

That was the feeling of freely manipulating the power of fire, the feeling of my body being strengthened countless times, the feeling of my own spiritual talent, and the complete liberation of my divine soul.

I can't believe I've become this strong, that I possess such power. It's just too perfect.

As the flames subsided, the newly reborn Lemanrus looked down at his terrifying claws, power—such pure and savage power—surging through his veins.

He felt he could tear apart a Titan with his bare hands, bite through the armor of a cruiser, and travel freely through space with his powerful psionic abilities.

Now he can single-handedly storm a warship and unleash a bloodbath.

"Awooo!" A loud wolf howl rang out from Lemanrus's mouth. In addition to normal gigantification, Lemanrus could also transform into a werewolf, completely transforming into a humanoid wolf of a terrifying height of 100 meters, with his physical strength and speed increasing several times over.

When Lemanrus's wolf howl echoed throughout Terra Railroad, all the bulletproof glass windows surrounding the Royal Palace shattered.

His body swelled again in the flames, his crimson fur covering his entire body, and he finally transformed into a giant fiery wolf that was a hundred meters tall.

When those burning beastly eyes swept over everyone present, even Rhodes and Guilliman involuntarily took a half step back.

After fusing with the cosmic beast, the Wolf King Lemanrus's power was completely unleashed, making him stronger than ever before.

Lemanrus attempted to shrink his body, and his enormous form gradually returned to its normal original size.

“Guilliman, I think we can have another fight. I feel like I can shatter your protective shield with one punch right now.” Ruth looked at Guilliman excitedly.

Having gained immense power, he couldn't wait to fight Guilliman again. Being defeated by Guilliman, who was among the weakest Primarchs, left him extremely displeased.

"Let's skip it. I've been neutralizing the cosmic beasts for decades, and my strength is beyond your imagination."

"And now, you should reunite with your genetic offspring; they have been waiting for their father for a full 1 years," Guilliman said.

He has no interest in fighting Lemanrus now; whether he wins or loses, it won't be good for him.

"Your wolf pack is still waiting for you. One of the little wolves has been waiting for you for a full 1 years and has now become the oldest wolf in the pack!"
"To wait for your return, to see you again, he even took up residence in the Dreadnought ten thousand years ago, only able to awaken once every thousand years," Rhodes said.

If I hadn't transformed it into a super beast, Bjorn would still be inside the Dreadnought Mech!
Lemanrus nodded, ultimately choosing not to fight Guilliman again, but instead taking his wolf guards to meet Bjorn, who had been waiting for a long time in the palace.

When he left Fenris, Bjorn was the youngest wolf cub and was given the important responsibility of Chapter Master. In his timeline, less than 200 years had passed, but in Bjorn's view, a full 1 years had passed.

My wolf cubs, your wolf father has returned.

"I must say, Guilliman, you really know how to deal with Lemanrus." After Lemanrus left, Rhodes turned to Guilliman and said.

To silence the wolf king with just a few words is something not everyone can do.

"Haha, actually I'm the smartest one of the Primarchs."
