Chapter 353 Magnus Returns!!
"We don't have much time!"

"Grand Master!"

"The Chaos Demon has arrived!"

Tzeentch's wizard emerged from the narrow crystal labyrinth at the very beginning of the entrance, a crater that had been blasted by Nurgle and Khorne in the early years and had not yet fully recovered.

The Chaos Wizard was initially surprised to discover the Grey Knight who had intruded into the Crystal Labyrinth.

After all, they never imagined that anyone would dare to break into their crystal labyrinth. Countless people who sought knowledge eventually got lost in the crystal labyrinth, where every direction represented the guidance of Tzeentch's riddles.

Only the correct answer can lead them out of the crystal maze.

And in this maze,
There was a device controlled by Tzeentch that contained a portion of Magnus's soul. This portion of the soul had been collected and purified by the Emperor's radiance, making it even purer.

Their purpose in coming here is to use the Emperor's psychic power to ruthlessly destroy the device that Tzeentch uses to control the other Magnus fragments, so that Magnus's soul can feel the call of other benevolent souls. As long as Magnus can feel these souls, he will have a chance to break free from Tzeentch's control and return all the souls to their rightful place. They may not be able to do it, but Magnus has the opportunity to do it.

Once Magnus returns.

Then they would bring Magnus back to Terra, let him sit slowly on the golden throne, and let the emperor return to the mortal realm.

In an instant, the wizards reacted, freezing the puzzles of the Crystal Maze with chaotic magic that solidified time and space. The punishment device triggered within the Crystal Maze reversed time and space, instantly separating one Grey Knight from the others. Each knight was above the other, and they all felt as if the other had been turned upside down by the Chaos Wizards.

"This guy has split in two. Let's check his name!"

Behind him, a grey knight was flipping through the Book of Ashes, trying to find the true name of the demon before him.

However, not all Chaos Demons were collected within it.

in subspace.

The number of Chaos Demons is well over a hundred billion, and this book only records a portion of them.

"Grand Mentor"

"No need, I'll do it myself."

Seeing that the others wanted to make a move, the Supreme Grand Master Casterlan Crow simply waved his hand, then looked at the Tzeentch Demon opposite him with a look of exhaustion. The other Grey Knights, after seeing the Grand Master personally take action, all turned around and rushed towards their destination without looking back.

Their purpose was simply to complete the mission and fight the Tzeentch demon; it wasn't something they were supposed to be doing.

Grand Master Castellan Crowe watched as the people behind him left. Before him, the Tzeentch wizard attempted to use some kind of spatial and temporal chaos magic to confuse the minds of everyone present, making it impossible for them to discern his exact location.

However, the High Master Casterlan Crow, who had extensive experience with the wizard Tzeentch, soon showed the recruits what it meant to be a High Master.

His psionic energy caused the surrounding space to boil, and even the flowing river of time emitted a piercing buzzing sound, like boiling water. This intense stimulation almost deafened the wizard Tzeentch.

Then came a violent surge of psionic energy, heating every chaotic particle in the vicinity to a terrifying temperature. The constantly boiling particles were like popping candy being cooked, jumping and bouncing wildly in the pot. Even Tzeentch's body, composed of psionic particles, was boiled up, and the ripples indicated that Tzeentch's body was on the verge of losing control.

Behind Tzeentch, the Chaos Demons that had been feigning an attack vanished instantly, like particles burned to ashes.

The Grey Knights who left, under the Grand Master's cover, successfully reached the place they were asked to go. They saw countless endings in countless parallel timelines, and Tzeentch also saw countless endings in countless timelines, but none of them were so smooth.

They achieved unimaginable success, successfully entering Tzeentch's Crystal Labyrinth and obtaining the staff of the demon controlled by Tzeentch.

That was Tzeentch collecting his Staff of Authority.

Is this what it is?

A broken staff lay inside a crystal coffin, its top bearing the imperial double-headed eagle emblem. "This is it, this scourge!"

Magnus now shares the same distrust of chaos.

However, Magnus had his thousand sons embrace Tzeentch and use Tzeentch's knowledge to reduce the mutations in them, but he deliberately forgot that the knowledge of Tzeentch that they relied on was actually full of traps.

Their seeds are inherently flawed.

The seeds, already flawed, will only be corrupted more quickly if they continue to use chaotic psionic energy. Furthermore, their unwavering trust in Tzeentch, their learning of his knowledge, and their embracing of everything Tzeentch has only exacerbated the mutation of Magnus's Thousand Sons.

"What will happen if Magnus is released?!"

Those around looked at the Grey Knight. They didn't know what the consequences of releasing Magnus would be. It might bring good, but there was also a high probability that it would bring bad. It all depended on what they would ultimately gain from this.

Their purpose was to follow the emperor's will.

Since the emperor has told them to come, then they should come.

They don't need to think too much about other things.

"freed!"

A grey knight beside him swung his holy artifact, a Titan's hammer. The hammer was branded with the Emperor's mantra. It was said that a drop of the Emperor's blood once clung to this artifact, along with a fist-sized piece of breastplate fabric that had been incorporated from the dismantling of the Emperor's most powerful power armor.

This sacred artifact, now in their hands, is almost as powerful as a divine artifact.

The deeper the connection with the emperor, the more power one can draw upon.

This is why those living saints were able to draw upon the emperor's even greater power.

It is because they possess unwavering faith, the devices and weapons used by the emperor, and even items stained with the emperor's blood that they represent the emperor himself or his will.

The holy hammer was raised high.

Then it fell heavily. In that instant of impact, they seemed to see the two-headed eagle emitting a sharp cry, seemingly stirring a world tens of thousands of light-years away.

"Buzz!"

Magnus instantly felt as if his soul had been shattered into countless pieces.

His already chaotic will suddenly felt as if countless voices were ringing in his ears.

"Father, please forgive them. I am willing to bear everything for them!"

"I was wrong, I was wrong. Letting them go was my mistake, and I'm willing to take all the blame!"

"Ruth! That is my offspring!"

"Father, they have betrayed us!"

"Father, please save us! We are your children!"

"Kneel down! We made a mistake. Being killed is our fate. I am willing to give my life to prove my father's loyalty to the Emperor!"

"die!"

"Dead again!"

"It's alright, Father, we will prove our loyalty!"

"Father."

"what!!!!"

"Ruth! You are my brother, Ruth, why, why would you do this?"

"Russ!!!!"

Faced with the savage space wolves, all the Senko became targets of slaughter.

Magnus recalled his past memories.

In their homeland, Russ, sent by their father, personally suppressed their resistance. Magnus had realized his mistake, so he gave up resistance and even persuaded his sons to give up resistance as well.

But the wolf king was too ruthless in its killing.

He knew it was his fault, he knew the Wolf King was seeking revenge out of personal motives, and he knew the Emperor was very disappointed in him, so he gave up.

But his blood-related offspring continued to die tragically, constantly crying out for their father outside, and constantly proving their blind loyalty to Magnus.

This allowed Magnus to break through his defenses repeatedly.

He saw Ruth slaughtering his offspring, and he shut the door.

He saw Ruth's space wolves humiliating them, and he shut down his five senses.

He felt the pain and despair of his offspring, those who were completely loyal and had no awareness of his betrayal. He trembled and blocked all his senses.

But
The shadow of death gradually loomed over him, originating from his descendants.

Ruth began to grow even more insane. He already had a conflict with Magnus and looked down on Magnus's psionic abilities, so now was the time for him to take revenge.

Magnus finally couldn't take it anymore.

break out!

And this is accompanied by Magnus's memories.

Some rare memories gradually resurfaced.

Those souls that had been torn apart by Tzeentch were repaired.

He witnessed the Space Wolves slaughtering the Senko, by which time the Senko had already undergone a transformation.

The Chaos Spirits surrounding Qianzi finally revealed their sharp fangs. Their ugly appearance seemed to control the completely disoriented Qianzi.

Those thousand sons were no longer his sons, but the sons of chaos.

Their genes are like a lock.

The key had become rusty and could no longer open the door, but the master key in Chaos's hand could open the door to its offspring at any time.

It accepted the treacherous plan to save its offspring.

however.

Along with the salvation, its soul was also fragmented into countless pieces along with its fall.

A portion of Magnus's consciousness seemed to be taking the initiative, glancing at the changes in its own body and then at the changes in its offspring.

pain!
