Warhammer: My buddy has too many secrets!

Chapter 160 Hope Remains! (3/5)

Father, like son.

Logan, the alpha of the Space Wolves, had seen in the lore that "the Primarch of the Iron Hands was the first loyal Primarch to fall in battle, and the traitor Primarch Vorgrim beheaded Feralus with his sword," but the Iron Hands would certainly not joke about their genetic father in such a way.

Having ruled out the influence of the Chaos Demons, and given that they had indeed suffered attacks from the corrupted Third Legion Noise Warriors, even though the news of the Primarch's resurrection was too shocking, Logan the Wolf Alpha still chose to believe it.

While believing them, Morgan also told them about what the Storm Priests of the Space Wolves had sensed in the warp.

The Steel Hands are not without psionic think tanks, but the psionic power of psionicists is bound to their souls, and the think tanks are taught that they must remain absolutely calm and focused before daring to explore that ocean.

After that previous battle, even the most composed Iron Hand psionic think tank, with its turbulent emotions, was unable to glean any useful information from the chaotic warp.

Therefore, after receiving such a reply from the Space Wolves, the previously ferocious Steel Hands calmed down again.

If the Primarch survives, then their struggle will have been meaningful. With the arrival of this iron army, the Space Wolves quickly relayed the news to their allies.

Because of the warp storm, the reinforcements of the Iron Hand descended upon Armageddon, which can be described as a ray of light in the darkness. Although their numbers were relatively small, according to the interpretation and preaching of the state priests, this was tantamount to the Emperor's dawn still shining on Armageddon.

Armageddon already knew that the Star Torch would be reactivated, and all the soldiers and residents were waiting for the dawn to arrive. Although it had not yet been extinguished, it was already a sign that the dawn had arrived for them.

On the other side, the Dark Angels were also advancing silently and efficiently, encountering the Iron Hands forces along the way.

Having encountered that tall man before, when they learned the information from their comrades, they immediately thought of the mysterious, tall figure they had rescued in the storm.

According to the description, the Primarch Feralus Manus, whom the Iron Hands went to rescue, suffered numerous knife wounds in the battle with the Fallen Serpent. Given the Primarch's size, the usually silent Dark Angels also informed the Iron Hands about the tall man.

Iron Hand was overjoyed upon receiving the news! Countless people cheered on the communication channel! The warriors of Iron Hand vowed never to forget the help of the Dark Angels!

But when Iron Hand's troops arrived at the location where the Primarch had been placed, they only saw a scene resembling a furnace.

Inside that deep fortress, everything was like a melting volcano, with raging fire burning within, seemingly without end!

Ordinary people simply could not endure that terrifying heat, but the Iron Hand troops, wearing heat protection gear, stepped into it.

However, there was no one inside.

They found only an anvil, which was hammered out of countless iron blocks in a furnace. There were even countless clearly visible fist marks on the anvil. Next to it was a mold of a long sword. It looked like a creation made entirely by bare hands.

The air seemed to be mixed with sweat and blood.

Even so, the Astartes of the Steel Hand were overjoyed, for they felt it within them!

They sensed a familiar aura, and within it, they felt the Primarch's overwhelming rage.

Hope remains.

Hope remains!

Meanwhile, on Terra, Khorne's demonic tide was gradually suppressed. Although the Blood God was no longer concerned about where the blood flowed from, this supreme god would never tolerate so-called losers. He roared furiously on his bronze throne. In ten thousand years, he had never been so angry.

Meanwhile, in the shadows, upon hearing the news of Khorne's failure on Terra, the Insolent Ones stirring the cauldrons in the Plague Garden laughed heartily. The Tearful Plague was merely their first gift to the little Mortarion brothers; soon, the Divine Plague, which they had meticulously concocted, would be complete.

They won't repeat the failures of those hot-tempered guys like Khorne by then.

Tzeentch and Slaanesh laughed heartily, for they were among the main culprits behind Khorne's failure, and the other was witnessing his beloved demon prince offering him a performance of pleasure.

While the gods were having this outburst, the black sun in the warp was burning quietly. After resting for a day and a night, Lancelot's symptoms improved. He patted his head and then walked out of the room.

The external demonic tide is still surging, but it has already shown signs of defeat. In space, the Glory Queen-class ship of the Traitor Fleet, the Soul of Vengeance, has retreated to Saturn's defense zone.

Lancelot's goal after waking up is also to go to a moon in Saturn's orbit, where there is an eternal fortress. The warriors stationed in the fortress will be the important reinforcements that Lancelot needs to support and gather to go to Armageddon.

Grey Knight.

In a sense, they were even on par with the Imperial Guard. Due to their special status, some members of the Imperial Guard even felt that in the Emperor's eyes, these Grey Knights were meant to replace them.

That's not far off. Although most of the Grey Knights' history remains mysterious and secret, or has been intentionally deleted from the archives, Lancelot, as a high-dimensional observer, naturally knew that the Grey Knights were a project that began in the last few days of the Horus Rebellion.

The Emperor foresaw that the Horus Rebellion might end at such a great personal cost that he would be unable to actively protect humanity from the immense threat of Chaos and its demons, so he initiated a plan to defend against this evil.

The Seal Bearer, Macardo, is the Emperor's closest servant, dispatched throughout the Empire to find suitable individuals to assume this responsibility.

Without a doubt, the Marksman Macardo possessed exceptional abilities, having identified twelve deserving champions for the Emperor from among the vast population of the human empire.

Four of them were mortal lords and administrators, and eight were Space Marines from loyalist and even traitorous legions!

Finally, shortly before the Siege of Terra, Macardo summoned the original Grey Knights to his side. From then on, their original identities were kept secret, and after they gathered together, the Emperor investigated the chosen recruits and approved the continuation of the project.

The recruits then went their separate ways, each taking on their own roles: the four lords ventured out to establish the framework of the Inquisition, while the Space Marines and Malcardo traveled to Titan, Saturn's moon.

During the Horus Rebellion, when resources were scarce for building the royal palace defenses, a steady stream of supplies was transported to the Titans to construct the eternal fortress.

And that was Lancelot's next destination. At that moment, during the Sky War, Chaos Warmaster Abaddon's gaze was also focused on this place!
