Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 583 Giant of Light VS Nurgle's Twisted Monster, Absolute Power Suppression

Horus's form as a giant of light shone with a dazzling silver-white light on the battlefield, milky-white energy patterns flowing across his hundred-meter-tall body, the silver-white giant standing on the earth.

He crossed his arms in front of his chest, then suddenly opened them—

"Judgment of Light!"

A purifying light blade with a diameter of over seventy meters shot out from the timer with a roar, melting away the plague clouds along its path like ice and snow. Any chaos that came into contact with this light was immediately purified.

This move was imitated by him after watching Rod and his mechanical Ultraman, Ace, who possessed many powerful cutting techniques.

This move seems to be called Ultra Guillotine, which can split any opponent in two.

Regardless of where this Mortarian came from, anyone who dares to appear before him, anyone who dares to appear before the current Imperial army, will die.

Mortalian's rotting wyvern let out a scream as its wings carbonized and peeled off in the light blade, while the Primarch himself raised his giant scythe to block, the corrupting runes on the scythe flashing wildly. Mortalian then used his full strength to cleave the light blade in two!

"Horus! Do you think such an attack can harm the messenger of the Father? No, it is the chosen one of the Father."

Thick yellow-green smoke billowed from beneath Mortarian's breathing mask, and countless maggots suddenly emerged from the gaps in his rotting Terminator armor. These maggots intertwined in the air, forming a plague network that covered the sky. "Taste the gift of the Father of All Plagues—the Corruption Nebula! Corrode everything."

The maggot web suddenly burst open, transforming into billions of dark green spore bombs that rained down.

Each spore that landed created a corrosive crater a hundred meters in diameter, causing even the rocks to boil into pus. Saint Gilles hurriedly spread his wings to protect the mortal army behind him, while Lemanrus struggled to form a shield on his body with the remaining flames, his wolf fur still hissing as it was corroded.

"A mere trifle." Horus raised his right arm high, and a giant spear formed in his palm from pure light energy.

He spun around and threw his spear, which transformed into a meteor that pierced through the rain of spores and went straight for Mortarion's chest!

The Primarch roared and swung his scythe to block, but the spear of light suddenly split into hundreds of tiny beams, which, as if alive, bypassed the defense and all pierced the joints of his armor.

Mortarion's massive body stiffened instantly, and maggots gushed from his wounds—they were Nurgles trying to heal their injuries!
The Mortarion in front of me is just a monster with Mortarion's appearance or memories.

I don't know what Nurgle did to create such a disgusting and twisted creature.

At this moment, Lion King Leon, who was originally commanding the fleet in space, also landed and stood with Lemanus and Saint Gilles, who were watching the battle from the side.

“This monster shouldn’t be Mortarion; he’s just wearing Mortarion’s face,” Lemanrus said.

As a Primarch, even though the other party had betrayed him, he still understood his brother and knew that the monster in front of him was not the real Mortarion.

“These damned Chaos scum, they somehow extracted Mortalian’s memories and then used some disgusting and evil technology to create this twisted monster,” Lion King Leon said.

“The real Mortalian is still imprisoned in the underground dungeon,” just then, a portal opened beside the three Primarchs, and Rhodes walked out from it.

Rhodes had been keeping an eye on the battlefield, so upon discovering the twisted Mortarion, he immediately headed to the underground prison of Holy Terra.

Then I saw Mortarion bound in chains, so this guy in front of me wasn't the real Mortarion at all.

However, this matter also aroused Rhodes' curiosity, so he came to take a look. This creature created by Nurgle using some unknown means was indeed very powerful, stronger than the original Mortarion.

It even made Rhodes feel a little strange, he always felt, always felt that this guy was related to his monster.

"But I'm more curious about Horus. What's the situation with Horus?"
"Why? Why is our power that of cosmic beasts, while his power is that of a giant of light? This power terrifies me." Wolf King Lemanus looked at Rhodes and asked.

Only by witnessing the power of such a being of light can one understand how vast the gap is between the two sides. Cosmic beasts are indeed very good, but compared to such a giant of light, the gap is enormous.

“The situation in Russia was a bit special. To revive him back then, we needed the power of the Giant of Light, but I didn’t have any cosmic beasts at the time,” Rhodes said with a shrug.

Ah, back then, the rich woman Horus hadn't even obtained the Cosmic Beast yet, and actually, the Cosmic Beast wasn't that much worse than the Giant of Light.

Horus is so powerful now because he and Darram are so compatible.

Moreover, the Emperor's power transformed Darram from a dark giant into a giant of light. If it were a top-tier cosmic beast, it wouldn't necessarily be much weaker than this giant of light.

"Don't worry, Ruth. Cosmic Beasts can grow with us and will be our lifelong companions."

"Take your time to get to know your cosmic beast, and you'll discover something different," Saint Gilles said.

He has the most authority to speak on this matter; his cosmic beast is a giant fire phoenix.

Furthermore, it has incorporated some of the Emperor's divine power and its own divine power, and now it can unleash fire-based skills.

It can also be imbued with the golden psionic power of the Emperor, possessing a powerful destructive force against demons.

In addition, there is a special lethal skill targeting the Terran Zerg.

“Saint Gilles is right. The Giant of Light is not much stronger than the Cosmic Beast. The Cosmic Beast is our partner. Have a good talk with your partner and cooperate in battle,” said Lion King Leon.

“I understand. I’ll work on getting along with my cosmic monster.” Lemanus nodded.

This giant cosmic wolf fused with itself, transforming into a werewolf. Its combat power was actually quite strong, but it was still far inferior to Horus's current form as a giant of light.

“Watch this fight closely. I have a feeling this guy is a bit strange,” Rhodes nodded and said.

At this moment, the two giants on the battlefield also began to fight.

Horus, in his form as a giant of light, stood in the center of the battlefield, his silver-white body radiating a divine glow, and the timer on his chest flashing with pure blue light.

His eyes, like two stars, stared directly at the twisted "Motalian" before him—a monster created by Nurgle magic, exuding an aura of decay and plague, with pus dripping from his giant scythe that corroded everything.

However, Horus was radiating intense heat, and the rotting Nurgle plague could not harm him at all.

He rushed forward and unleashed a series of punches, sending the gigantic Mortarion flying.

"You are not Mortarion, you are just a counterfeit cobbled together by Nurgle through dirty means." Horus assumed an Ultraman fighting stance. He gathered light energy in his palm, forming a gear-shaped disc, and then threw it out—one of the skills he had learned from the Ultraman warriors of Rod.

Eight-Point Light Wheel! This skill has an extremely fast attack speed and a very strong cutting ability. In some ways, it is even more useful than the Ultra Guillotine from before.

After the eight-part light wheel shot out, it split into four, severing Mortarion's limbs and severing his weapon. The attack was incredibly fast; Mortarion didn't even have time to react before his limbs were severed.

"A fake? No... I am the perfect creation of the Father!" The voice of the fake Mortarion sounded like a mixture of the wails of a thousand dying people. "I possess Mortarion's memories, his power, and even... his hatred for you!"

Before he finished speaking, thick green liquid flowed from Mortarian's limbs, which then quickly reconnected with the severed limbs and were restored in a short time.

Pseudo-Motalian suddenly swung his giant scythe, unleashing a dark green plague storm that rotted the earth and distorted the air in its wake.

Horus crossed his arms, and a barrier of light instantly unfolded. The plague storm crashed against the barrier, producing a piercing corrosive sound, but ultimately could not penetrate it.

"Your power comes from the distortion of chaos, while my power... comes from the will of humanity!" Horus charged forward suddenly, the speed of the giant of light far exceeding imagination, instantly closing in on Pseudo-Motalian, and slamming a heavy punch into the opponent's chest.

"boom--!"

The fake Mortarian staggered backward from the punch, his decaying Terminator armor dented, but countless maggots immediately gushed out of the wound, rapidly repairing the injury.

"Useless, Horus! The Father's grace grants me immortality!" Pseudo-Motalian grinned as his giant scythe swept across, the corrupting runes on its blade flashing, enough to sever the boundary between reality and the warp.

Horus dodged to the side, the giant scythe grazing his shoulder and sending sparks flying, but it did not harm the giant of light in the slightest.

He swung a backhand chop at the neck of the fake Mortarian, but the opponent's body suddenly twisted like mud, causing the attack to miss.

“Partner, how about I go first? Let me play with him.” Darram spoke up in Horus’s mental space.

This twisted monster is a good punching bag; he hasn't been out stretching his muscles in a long time.

Horus pondered for a moment and then nodded. This monster had strong regenerative abilities, but its actual strength was not that great. It only managed to inflict some damage on other Primarchs by using its Nurgle poisons.

The silver giant that Horus had transformed into crossed his hands above his head. The Star Timer flashed, and with a wave of his arms, Horus's appearance changed, transforming into a giant of light dressed in imposing red armor.

"Hahaha, now it's my turn, the Steel Warrior Darram, to play with you." Since merging with Horus, he hasn't been out for a long time.

Now I can finally have a match with this seemingly decent opponent.

The wolf king Lemanus was stunned when he saw this. This was not just a simple change of color. Horus seemed to have become a different person.

Or perhaps the red giant in front of us isn't Horus at all.

"Just like how you can have a substitute player for a Cosmic Beast, you can also have a substitute player for the Giant of Light, since the Giant of Light is also a life form."

"Like your phantom beast companions, this giant of light is a companion of Horus." Rhodes smiled and explained the origins of Darramb to the Primarchs.

A giant of light from the ancient past, a warrior of immense strength possessing absolute power.

Darram roared and charged toward the twisted monster before him, causing the entire earth to tremble.

Darram—this powerful warrior from the ancient past, his entire body glows with a crimson light like lava, and his heavy armor covers explosive muscles.

Each step he took caused the earth to tremble. He clashed his fists together, producing a metallic roar, and grinned maliciously at the fake Mortalian.
"A filthy toy? Let's see how many punches you can take!"

Before the fake Mortarian could react, Darram had already rushed in front of him like a red lightning bolt, and delivered a powerful uppercut to his chin!
"Crack!"

The decaying breathing mask shattered instantly, and the pseudo-Motalian's head nearly snapped backward 180 degrees from the punch, yellowish-green pus gushing from his broken cervical vertebrae. However, Nurgle's blessing kept him alive, and maggots wriggled frantically, attempting to heal his injuries.

The opponent's power is different from that of Horus, the giant of light from before; this guy's power is simply terrifying to the extreme.

"Come on, witness absolute power!" Darram roared, grabbing the head of the fake Mortarion and slamming his hundred-meter-tall body into the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.

The shockwave blew away plague warriors within a radius of several kilometers, and the entire corrupted land was smashed open with spiderweb-like cracks.

In addition to physical attacks, a power akin to red magma was also scorching the Nurgle's power.

If you think the Giant of Light is just a brute who uses brute force, you are sorely mistaken.

Lemanrus, watching the battle, narrowed his wolf-like eyes: "This...this is pure power! His fighting style...is like that of a wild beast."

“No, more terrifying than a beast.” Lion King Leon gripped his Lion Sword tightly. “This is a war machine forged through a thousand trials.”

Upon hearing this, Rhodes's lips twitched. You two are recognized by all Primarchs as two beasts, and you actually say it's like a beast.

Ruth, when you transform into your giant wolf form, you look more like a wild beast, don't you?

On the battlefield, Darram was already riding on the back of the fake Mortarion, and his heavy punches rained down.

Each punch was accompanied by crimson flames, vaporizing the maggots that were trying to repair themselves. The pseudo-Motalian's breastplate was completely dented, and rotting internal organs were squeezed out from the cracks.

"Father, grant me..." False Mortarian struggled and screamed.

"Fancy!" Dalam's arm muscles bulged, tearing the arm off its hilt and grabbing Pseudo-Motalian's right arm, ripping it violently—

"Tsk!"

His entire arm, along with half of his shoulder, was forcibly torn off, and dark green blood gushed out like a waterfall. Darram casually tossed the severed arm aside, causing it to crash into a plague fortress in the distance.

The battle scenes were extremely violent.
