Warhammer: Just unified the Empire, you said it was 40K

Chapter 272 The Ark of Calamity Incident, Invasion of Magdalene's World

Vashtor.

A string of data born from chaos, born from the first technologically desecrated creation.

And after absorbing countless technologies, he grew into a demigod who mastered technology in the universe.

He walked inside the warship.

With ease, the entire warship emitted eerie screams.

Those parts, filled with troublesome demons and distorted due to the influence of the chaotic subspace, were being repaired at a visible speed under his control.

This Nemesis warship, which carries an important mission in the history of the Black Legion, had been under their repair for a long time. However, due to years of communication with Chaos and travel in the warp, it had long been corroded beyond recognition. Now, in Vashtor's hands, it was restored to its original state at a speed visible to the naked eye, which shocked them.

The commotion caused by Vashtor finally brought the Chaos Warmaster, who had been living in his own world, out of his room.

A voice called out, “Vashtor,” and the door opened.

Warlord Abaddon emerged from the prophecies of those wizards.

He sought the prophecies brought by the wizards, like the prophecy of the Great Black Rift, which he successfully tore apart the galaxy by acquiring Blackrock Fortress.

To succeed, he must acquire more items like Blackrock Fortress to increase his chances of winning.

"Commander."

Not long ago, Vashtor reached an agreement with Abaddon. Although the agreement did not specify anything, Abaddon had always been wary of Vashtor. However, Vashtor's arrival this time brought him some visible benefits.

The power that had been corrupted by the forces of chaos for so long was destroyed by Vashtor, which made Abaddon have some doubts about Vashtor's arrival.

Their collaboration has ended.

What is the purpose of their visit here?
"Commander, I understand your concerns, and they are not without reason. For you right now, the entire galaxy is in a chaotic era of warlordism, and your Black Legion, which wants to rule the dark side of the entire empire, has a powerful enemy that you cannot confront."

Vashtor voiced Abaddon's concerns, and he gestured for the others to make way for Vashtor. In Vashtor, Abaddon once again saw the terrifying power this guy wielded over technological creations. Just by getting close to the warship, he could change everything on it. Could he then directly control his warship to fight against him?

“We can cooperate. You and I share a common enemy, and you want to access the dark side of the Empire. I can help you access the dark side of the Empire.”

Abaddon was confident that he could kill the Chaos Demon before Vashtor could change the warship.

So let the other person continue talking and see if they can come up with something that will move him.

"."

"And I need you to help me obtain something first. In return, I will give you my solution. I will give you a fleet sufficient to support your rule over the dark side of the galaxy. I possess weaponry and equipment beyond your imagination, as well as immense power. I will provide you with technological support beyond your comprehension. You will not suffer any losses. Moreover, the weapon I am seeking is one that will allow you to rule the entire galaxy and become its overlord. At that time, whether it be the human empire or any other race, they will all grovel before you."

By repairing Abaddon's damaged warships, Vashtor was essentially flexing his muscles and demonstrating his sincerity. He offered Abaddon more powerful equipment in return for cooperation, hoping to secure victory in the war.

Of course, they will have even greater collaborations in the future.

To gain Abaddon's trust, Vashtor presented all his plans, including his own plan to become the fifth evil god in the Warp by finding the weapon forged by the Old Ones, thus participating in the great game in the Warp against the real universe. That weapon would not only help him become the fifth evil god in the Warp, but also help Abaddon and him achieve their shared desires.

"What a terrifying ambition. However, perhaps it can become a pawn for me to balance the four gods. I will not make the same mistake as Horus."

Before Vashtor, Abaddon had been pursuing prophecies to find lost weapons and increase his chances of victory. So when he heard the other party reveal a terrifying weapon created by the Old Ones during the War of Heaven, which was enough to give him control over the fate of the entire galaxy and the direction of victory, he was tempted. The precedent of Blackrock Fortress made him even more eager for a more secure way to take over the human empire.

Looking at the repaired Nemesis battleship and the support the enemy had given him in Kadia, Abaddon understood that the enemy needed him. Good, he did need more powerful equipment to arm his Black Legion. Moreover, even if Vashtor betrayed him, he had enough strength to make the guy in front of him regret it; the enemy was not the Fifth Evil God.

Of course, Abaddon could not possibly trust him completely.

Chaotic evil gods, especially demons who aspire to become evil gods, are bound to be cunning and scheming. Their goals are also full of traps and pitfalls, and one can easily fall into their trap if one is not careful.

However, Abaddon's description of the weapons piqued his interest greatly, because in the other man's description, weapons of the level of the Blackrock Fortress they had lost were like water guns under a Star Destroyer compared to the weapons made by the Old Ones, utterly insignificant.

"What do you need me to do before we cooperate?" "Helping me take over a human world is very simple for you."

Vashtor wanted Abaddon to be his henchman. Vashtor's subordinates did indeed possess a large number of demon engines, as well as a demon legion and the Dark Machine Church.

However, his power was far inferior to Abaddon's. By having Abaddon act as his henchman, he could reap the benefits without lifting a finger.

Moreover, in order to keep Abaddon cooperating with him, he had to offer Abaddon enough incentives. Therefore, using a simpler world to gain Abaddon's trust seemed more sincere than any other plan.

What kind of world is this?!

"The World of Magdallo!"

"Never heard of it."

This world is the homeworld of the Iron Angels Chapter of the Human Empire. However, the Iron Angels Chapter's homeworld has long since disappeared, and the homeworld has long been destroyed. They fled here and established their own foundation on this planet. The earliest record of the Iron Angels Chapter dates back to the 33K era, after the Tyrant Era.

The Iron Angels Chapter is small in number. They strictly adhere to the Astartes Convention, so their chapter size is strictly limited to no more than five hundred people. For thousands of years, they have been annihilating enemies among the stars for the Empire. They use their most loyal artillery fire to hold back hundreds of millions of enemies for the Empire.

Their guiding principles are loyalty and steadfastness.

No matter what kind of enemy they encounter, they will never retreat, and with absolute loyalty, they will protect every inch of the land behind them.

For this reason, they have gradually depleted almost all of their genetic neutrons in the wars over the centuries.

However, ominous signs followed them relentlessly.

With the appearance of the Great Rift, the number of psionicists in the Empire began to increase.

The Steel Angels battle group suffered an even more devastating blow.

The emergence of numerous psionicists and polluters has contaminated their genetic resources. Coupled with the constant attacks from the chaotic forces of the Great Rift, the precious conscription resources available on their planets have become extremely scarce. There are almost no tribes left that can continue to recruit soldiers, and they are practically in a state of constant decline.

In the shadowy world of the empire, Magdallo is now steadily marching towards destruction.

Even without Abaddon's intervention, the vast amount of dark technology on Dragonlin Star, along with the Dark Mechanical Church, would be enough to destroy the planet. Vashtor brought Abaddon up here to lay the groundwork for future plans.

The fleet that Abaddon had promised, guided by Vashtor, headed toward the world of Magdalor.

They reached the world of Magdalor at a much faster speed by traveling in subspace orbit. The ability that Vashtor demonstrated seemed to be telling Abaddon that it could increase Abaddon's marching efficiency and reaction speed countless times. In fact, the other side did achieve this.

Above the third orbiting planet of Magdalene.

Abaddon's Raider Legion entered orbital space at top speed and, with the help of Vashtor, engaged in a fierce battle with the Steel Angels Chapter.

After numerous battles, the Iron Angels had been reduced to a pitiful number. This space force had become so vulnerable to the Abaddon Raider Legion that it would crumble at the slightest touch.

Vashtor's chaos magic played a significant role in the war.

Meanwhile, in the monastery of the Steel Angels Legion.

The moment they lost contact with the Space Force, Acting Chapter Commander Rubisius instantly realized the deadly crisis facing the Steel Angels Chapter.

The loyal star whisperers quickly sent out distress signals, appealing to the surrounding world for help as much as possible.

Rubius grabbed the Shield of Glory and the Power Sword from the chapter and stood guard at the outermost edge of Magdalene's monastery. Behind him were only a few dozen Astartes from the Iron Angels chapter, the last few warriors remaining in their monastery.

And they can only use their own lives to protect and safeguard this world.

In space, the Chaos Fleet advanced with unstoppable momentum.

In the sky, parachute droplets fell like rain, as the yellow sand buried the world, as if the end of the world had arrived.
