Warhammer, about my years with the Wolfpack

"I knew that something would go wrong with Eidolon sooner or later. He's too arrogant and too obsessed with so-called perfection and outward excellence, even to a dangerous degree. Back then, he didn't listen to a single word of the teachings of a certain lord in the White Scars Legion." As the fifth member of the Council of Four Kings, Torgaddon also told Loken some of the circumstances.

"My lord, there are some things that still need to be investigated. Lord Eidolon may have problems, but what problems are they..." After hearing what Loken said, Tarvitz's face became embarrassed. After all, Eidolon was still the lord commander of the legion, second only to the Primarch. It was very embarrassing for Tarvitz to be evaluated by a high-ranking friendly force in this way, although he also believed that this time, Eidolon's detention was the lightest result.

Loken was known for his straightforward nature, even suspecting his own Primarch's warrior gatherings of some ill intention, though it was Torgaddon who finally explained the situation to Loken. Loken's current impression of the Emperor's Children Legion was, after all, only average. After all, as a regional leader, Loken possessed his own information channels. In fact, not only Loken, but Torgaddon and some veteran Luna Wolves also harbored complaints about the current Emperor's Children, even discussing the issue before the Primarch.

Loken waved his hand, silencing Eidolon's defense. "How to deal with Eidolon is a matter for the Primarchs and the Emperor's attendants. I am merely responsible for the execution."

"Have you and the people behind you considered what to do after this incident?" Loken asked. Loken didn't believe that Tarvitz, a mere captain, would dare investigate Eidolon. Firstly, he lacked the stature and expertise to do so. Tarvitz must have had the support of others, such as Vespasian and Akurduna, figures of greater seniority and power. Otherwise, how could a captain have the time to understand the movements of the Legion's higher-ups? How could that be possible? As the fifth member of the Council of Four Kings, Loken was well-versed in the workings of a Legion.

"Naturally I followed the Primarch," Tarvitz said.

"Haha, you." Loken shook his head helplessly. What Tarvitz had done was deeply offensive. He had no idea how serious this supposed corruption was, but he had obeyed the Emperor's servants' orders, without informing the Primarch, and brought in other Legion Primarchs to handle matters. Loken didn't believe Fulgrim had much tolerance.

"Okay, you go and have a rest. Would it be convenient for me to take a look at the relevant information?" Locke asked.

"Yes, Lord Loken, but only part of it," said Tarvitz.

"Okay." Locke nodded.

--------

While Tarvitz rested and prepared for his audience with the Primarch, Loken began to review some detailed information, and some of the content immediately stunned him! Because it was strikingly similar to some of the monsters he had dealt with before! Since he had foresight, it was natural that the Emperor would occasionally trip up the evil god. As a loyal man, Loken had carried out similar missions before. However, the mission was kept secret, and even within the Legion's high command, only a limited number of people knew about it.

"Has the corruption reached the top of the Legion?" Loken pondered. "So, is Fulgrim simply being deceived?"

"Pass the word down, Dal'Khan Forge Fleet, immediately enter Level 5 combat readiness, open vaults 10 through , and prepare for battle!" Loken commanded. At this point, Loken realized that the corruption within the Emperor's Children Legion was no small matter, and it might even lead to a clash between the Legions! At least, Loken, with his experience, didn't believe that the men of Eidolon's fleet were all deceived or pure! As the most powerful squadrons within the Luna Wolves, Loken felt compelled to lead the charge!

"Send a message to the Spirit of Vengeance and say that I am the Legion's Director of Forging, Governor of the Dalkan Industrial World, and Commander-in-Chief of the Forging Fleet, requesting to contact the Primarch at the highest level." Loken ordered.

"As you command, sir." The servant bowed and left.

"I need to get ready too." Loken stood up and walked towards his personal armory, where his personal weapons were stored. As the heavy alloy door opened, a towering giant mecha stood before him.

"Old friend, we are going to the battlefield again this time, but unfortunately, we may have to face our former colleagues." Locke walked over and said while stroking the armor plate of the mecha.

"Eradicate all evil!" The mecha's soul made a faint sound, which reached Locke's ears.

"Yes, eradicate all evil, show no mercy, and never forgive!" Locke said firmly.

Chapter 323 Horus's Decision

As the dragon gunship carrying Loken and his party landed in the hangar of the Spirit of Vengeance, Tarvitz finally boarded the Spirit of Vengeance. Then, led by Horus's attendant Mallochs, the group set out on the road to meet the Primarch.

"There are a lot of people here today, Malochus." Loken looked at the dense crowds on both sides of the corridor. There were planetary governors, commanders of mortal legions, Mechanicus sages who smelled of motor oil, and envoys from other legions.

"Yes, Lord Loken, the Primarch has specially postponed many of his tasks today in anticipation of your arrival," Mallochs said respectfully. As the Primarch's attendant, Mallochs had many privileges, but facing this high-ranking official who controlled the core armament production of the Ni Legion, Mallochs still had to remain respectful.

"If it weren't for the utmost importance, I wouldn't have done this. I hope our father can forgive my recklessness," Locke said. "What about the others? I mean the other high-ranking officials."

"Lord Sejanus is accompanying the Primarch, waiting for a report from the Captain of the Imperial Children, and then he will work with the Primarch to make a decision. Lord Abaddon has returned to his flagship. You know, this time, there are too many outsiders on the Spirit of Vengeance, and these people cannot be easily transferred away, so Lord Abaddon's Tyrant may serve as the flagship of this operation." said Mallochs.

"And young Lord Horus is handling these matters." Mallochs glanced at the people next to him and said meaningfully.

"Very good, this is the most appropriate plan at this moment," Loken nodded. It was clear that Horus had already realized the seriousness of the situation during their previous exchange, not only because of Loken's report to Horus, but also because, in Horus's understanding, once a matter required the Emperor's Handmaids to personally draw their swords, it was definitely no small matter! On the one hand, the enemy was powerful enough to require the Emperor's Handmaids, such extremely high-end and rare combat forces, to fight. On the other hand, it demonstrated the Emperor's resolve! After all, when Angron was punished, the Emperor's Handmaids did not participate in the battle, but when a corrupted brother was eliminated, the Emperor's Handmaids did participate!

After receiving the news, Horus also tried to communicate with the Emperor, but the Emperor's answer was simple: let Horus handle it himself. Horus saw this as a sign of trust in himself. After all, although punishing a brother was unpleasant, only a highly trusted Primarch could "handle it." But at the same time, it also meant that his father was willing to give Fulgrim a chance. Of course, the premise of all this was that Horus had to get this done! In Horus's mind, nothing was more important than the Emperor's commission. If it weren't for Fulgrim's face, Horus could have taken the entire fleet with him.

Thus, the entire Luna Wolves Legion began warming up for this operation. To prevent leaks, Horus prepared to transfer to another ship, the Glorious Queen, Abaddon's flagship, the Tyrant. Sejanus accompanied him as advisor. The main fleets would be Abaddon's squadron and Loken's Forge Fleet. Torgaddon and Young Horus would handle miscellaneous tasks.

At this time, Tarvitz, who met Horus, reported the details of the matter to Horus immediately. As for before, Loken had already reported the general situation to Horus and attached his own speculation.

"Captain Tarvitz, this is a grave matter. The Imperium will inevitably retaliate against the daemons of the Warp. We will crush with sword and iron fist any enemy who seeks to tarnish the glory of the Third Legion, no matter where they originate," Horus declared after hearing this. While Horus's knowledge of the Dark Lords was limited, he had seen plenty. The galaxy was full of aliens who used psychic powers or other means to bewitch and control people. Especially with the outrageous creatures like the Randan. While Horus had never faced them directly, a rough analogy gave him a rough idea of ​​the situation.

"Thank you for your help. On behalf of the Primarch and the Third Legion, I thank you for your help." Tarvitz said with a happy face.

"Okay, you can get ready now. In two hours at most, we will board the Tyrant and set off together," said Horus.

"As you command," Tarvitz said, and then he left. He knew that Horus would now discuss matters with his closest associates. Tarvitz could only deliver a message and offer some advice. However, the final decision was not his to make.

--------

"Loken, my master forge, sit here." Seeing Loken coming, Horus waved to Loken with a smile and asked him to sit on his left. At this time, Sejanus sat on Horus' right hand side. Abaddon was reorganizing the fleet, so only the three of them attended the meeting.

"Are you used to working in Dalkan?" Horus asked habitually after meeting.

"Fortunately, we have migrated a large number of technicians and industrial populations from other planets. We have provided them with a working environment and living conditions that are far better than those on their home planet. After they arrived, they were able to quickly engage in production and work. According to my plan, if you give me three months, I can increase the output of equipment by more than 20%." Locke reported.

"Very good, you are always so reassuring, Loken," Horus nodded with great satisfaction. Horus was quite satisfied with Loken. In the Luna Wolves, Horus had no shortage of skilled warriors, nor of wise men capable of coordinating everything. However, he lacked the technical personnel to provide the Legion with adequate armaments. Loken was the typical capable and quiet man. Aside from being a bit rigid, he had few problems. Horus also quite liked Loken's rigidity. After all, in his view, this rigidity was loyalty, and it meant a lack of unnecessary hassles.

"Thank you for your trust." Locke bowed his head and saluted.

"Okay, let's start now and talk about my brother and his legion." Horus frowned slightly and squeezed his hands. Obviously, he also felt that this matter was very difficult.

"My lord, corruption must be eradicated. No matter who is contaminated, we must take decisive action. According to my experience, Eidolon is beyond saving. He has violated the laws of the empire and has been contaminated. He and his men who participated in this operation must be screened, although I personally feel that the screening is no longer necessary. The best way to deal with them is to kill them all, and then give them a decent treatment in name." Locke said seriously.

"Loken, that's at least 3000 to 5000 legionnaires. The Emperor's Children may not lose so many officers and soldiers even if they capture a level 3 pocket empire. Are you sure this is necessary?" Sejanus said with a serious expression.

"If possible, I think we also need to screen the Emperor's Children Legion internally. Eidolon is in a high position of power. Once he is corrupted, it will definitely affect not only them, but many more people. We must cut off all the cancer." Loken did not back down.

"Lord Fulgrim will not agree. Regardless of whether this pollution really exists, unless..." Sejanus looked at Horus.

"Loken, Eidolon and his men are handed over to you. You can deal with the problem in the way you think is right." Horus spoke, his words full of murderous intent and determination.

"As you command," Loken said.

Looking at Sejanus, who seemed to be hesitant to speak, Horus continued, "It's only a matter of time before Eidolon will become a problem. We've discussed this before. Torgaddon's assessment of him is that he's been twisted by vanity, even to the point of depravity. Furthermore, if nothing unexpected happens, he'll probably fight the Emperor's attendants, which would be tantamount to attacking the Emperor, my father. This is unforgivable."

"Sejanus, I know what you want to say. If we just narrow the scope of the attack to Eidolon and his subordinates, this is already the best result. Believe me, I don't want to fight with my brothers. I am even more unwilling to let my brothers be humiliated and punished. My father gave me this task. This is a trust in me, but also a responsibility. We must handle this matter well." Horus said.

At this point, Horus's thoughts were clear: as long as Fulgrim's integrity and purity, and the superficial glory of the Third Legion, remained intact, all else was unimportant and could be dealt with! Eidolon was this chicken, a reminder and warning to Fulgrim. Would Horus show mercy to this chicken? Definitely not!

"Okay, father," Sejanus said, understanding.

"Father, what are you discussing with the other brothers?" At this moment, a communication was projected in front of Horus, and then Abaddon and his iconic hair accessories appeared in front of everyone.

"I saw Lord Sejanus and Steel Loken, but you didn't call me. I'm really disappointed." Abaddon said seemingly unhappy.

"You? You just need to follow my orders and destroy the enemy. This time, move slowly and wait for your companions." Horus said unhappily. "This time, I allow you and your men to launch the first wave of the attack. In addition, the Tyrant will serve as the flagship of this operation."

"Okay, father, I will complete the task." Abaddon said with a smile on his face.

"Let's continue our conversation, regarding the other corruptions within the Third Legion and my brother," Horus said. "Sejanus, after dealing with Eidolon, you will immediately contact Vespasian. He will undoubtedly be more familiar with the situation within the Imperial Children. Then, the two of you and the Emperor's attendants will begin to identify the Imperial Children within the Legion. I will be in charge of communicating with Fulgrim."

Horus didn't just intend to eliminate Eidolon and be done with it, but he really wanted to completely eliminate the corruption in the Imperial Children Legion. In fact, Horus also had some complaints about the current Imperial Children.

Based on Horus's understanding of the Imperial Children, he believed that Vespasian, a Lord Commander of the same rank as Eidolon, was undoubtedly behind Tarvitz. Vespasian's position and power allowed him to quickly stabilize the entire Imperial Children in the absence of the Primarch and with another Lord Commander declared a traitor. Having Sejanus, someone of exceptional ability and prestige, to represent him and conduct the investigation was undoubtedly the best option. The Imperial Retinue represented the Emperor and acted in accordance with his own legal principles. If the remaining suspected Imperial Children were willing to submit to investigation, that would be the best option. However, if they were unwilling, either Abaddon or Loken could effectively resolve the situation.

"You must be mindful of your safety, my lord," Loken warned. "I cannot guarantee that Lord Fulgrim will remain sane when our fleet attacks Eidolon."

"Fulgrim will not fire at me. When he first came back, I taught him and led him to adapt to this dark galaxy and his own identity." Horus said.

"This corruption from the Warp can be very dangerous, be prepared my lord," said Loken.

"Okay, Abaddon will be responsible for dealing with Eidolon's fleet, and your fleet will be with my main force. That's it." Horus said after thinking for a while.

"As you command, father," Loken said.

"So, what are your thoughts on Tarvitz and his men?" Sejanus asked. "After this incident, Captain Tarvitz seems to be having a hard time adjusting to life in the Third Legion, regardless of the outcome."

"He is an excellent legion commander and an upright man. It is said that he originally had the hope of competing for the position of lord commander, but it's a pity. I will try my best to protect him." Horus said after thinking for a moment.

"Okay, now the fleet is ready to go. Let's go. If there is anything, we can talk on the way." Horus said.

A few hours later, Horus personally visited the Glorious Queen-class battleship Tyrant, and divided nearly 4% of the warships from the huge Luna Wolves fleet. In front of a group of high-ranking officials and envoys from various star regions, this huge fleet began to line up and enter the warp. Next to this main fleet were Abaddon's squadron and Loken's Forge Fleet.

"My lord, I would like to ask what on earth caused the honorable Primarch to leave here with such a huge fleet." An envoy of the star governor asked little Horus.

"Sorry, this is a military secret and you have no right to know it. Besides, this is a covert operation, so it's best to keep it to yourself." Little Horus said expressionlessly.

And just when Horus finally led his fleet towards the target star area, and Eidolon waited for several days in vain and was about to go back, a fierce battle was about to break out in Eidolon's fleet.

Chapter 324 This is my home (5K)

"Damn it! Our intelligence was wrong. They never came! When I get back, I'm going to punish those who spread these lies." After several days of delay, Eidolon, having gained nothing, returned to the flagship, the Paragon, with his guards. He roared in frustration, occasionally waving his thunder hammer as if he wanted to smash something.

"Perhaps Vespasian was afraid. He realized that you had gained more favor and trust from the Primarch, and he couldn't fight you, so he chose to give up."

"That's certainly possible. These guys are quite self-aware," Eidolon nodded. "If that old guy is willing to give me his Dragon gunship, I can forgive his unreasonableness," Eidolon said, looking at his Stormbird gunship.

The war against the Randan xenos was brutal, with all participating legions suffering heavy losses. However, their losses were rewarded: commanders received a certain amount of "rewards" based on the number of troops and contributions. Most of this reward consisted of high-end equipment produced by the Iron Hands, Space Wolves, and Ultramarines. After Vespasian returned with his troops, aside from the "tribute" he paid to the Primarch, the remaining equipment was incredibly tight! The so-called "small items" were not a big deal, but the larger items were incredibly demanding. Furthermore, the relationship between Eidolon and Vespasian was currently strained, so to this day, Eidolon still rides a modified and enlarged Stormbird gunship.

"Let's go." Then, the group left the hangar and walked in the passage leading to the bridge. However, what Eidolon didn't expect was that their every move had been discovered by the Traveler and Zavin.

----------

"They have entered the ambush zone. We have control over the remote-controlled weapons, blast-proof doors, and various defense facilities in this area. My men are stationed on both sides. As long as the blast-proof doors are closed, they will be smashed to pieces." Karion Zavin said, looking at the data board.

"Perhaps. Prepare to act," the Traveler said. He disagreed with Zavin's words. While theoretically and scientifically, the other party was doomed, the Traveler sensed a scent of decadence and extravagance emanating from the Warp. While the Dark Prince couldn't even dispatch clones, he could still influence the real universe. After all, someone claiming to be the Flawless Blade had been killed countless times, only to be resurrected by the Dark Prince. However, this resurrection came at a price.

"One day, when I'm better, I'll come and help you myself," the traveler said harshly in his heart. Speaking harshly is a characteristic of intelligent creatures, from children to gods, and even evil gods can do it...

"Open fire!" Following Zavin's order, two explosion-proof doors quickly fell down in the passage, blocking Eidolon and his guards directly in the middle. As the attack order was written, the Machine Spirit of the Paragon began to operate, and heavy grenade guns appeared from hidden positions, aiming at this team of almost defenseless Emperor's children. Then, dense rain of bullets swept through the corridor, and in an instant, people and horses were thrown to the ground!

"Damn it, how could this happen?!" Eidolon's personal shield deflected several explosive bombs for him. He swiftly hid in a corner and began to observe the surrounding situation.

"You've been tricked. Use your hidden weapon to break through. Led by a certain entity, a group of small insects have entered this battleship and gained partial control. Kill them, use their souls to fill your weapons, and use their flesh and blood to hold a grand feast." A faint voice sounded in Eidolon's ears. The latter was surprised that the secret of his modified power armor and implanted alien organs had been known to others, but now he knew he had to make a choice!

Although Fabius Bile had been captured by the Traveler in this dimension, he himself had not engaged in the implantation of alien organs. However, Enkali's appearance allowed Eidolon to complete this transformation. He had originally intended to use it as a trump card, to deal with the most difficult enemies at a critical moment. But now, he had no choice but to expose himself.

After a brief preparation, a terrifying sound wave echoed through the battleship's corridors. Then, waves of sound, like the power of a Space Marine's blast grenade, swept across the exposed bolter turrets. With a nearly maddening sound and cracking sound, one bolter turret after another was destroyed. Seizing this opportunity, Eidolon took the lead and smashed open the blast doors with a few blows of his thunder hammer.

"Damn it, what just happened?" Zavin said in shock, looking at the passage on the data board that looked like it had been swept by a typhoon. He had not expected that Eidolon could break the killing game he had set up so easily.

"Alien technology and the blessing of darkness," the Traveler sighed. "Let your men evacuate. I'll hold them back." With that, the Traveler vanished from the scene. A moment later, he reappeared before Eidolon and his men.

"......!" Upon seeing the traveler in the gold and blue robe, Eidolon instinctively took two steps back, his Adam's apple throbbing. He wanted to speak, but dared not. Clearly, as the Legion's second-in-command, Eidolon recognized the attire before him. As the saying goes, a man's reputation reflects his shadow. Eidolon felt he might have a difficult time passing this stage today. Even though he had the advantage in numbers, even though this was on his flagship.

"For the Lady, kill him!" Eidolon didn't beg for mercy, for he knew that when the Emperor's emissary drew his sword, there would be no mercy, no forgiveness. His affairs had become so catastrophic that even the Primarch couldn't save him. A special power flowed from the Warp, allowing Eidolon and his men to overcome their fear and take up arms! Meanwhile, the Traveler had already taken action. Dragging a body that seemed incredibly frail to Him, the Traveler rushed into the traitorous Emperor's children like a whirlwind, the longsword in his hand slicing through the traitors' bodies like a storm.

"I can't beat him and I will die!" A chill that penetrated deep into Eidolon's heart surged up from his bones. However, at this moment, a force was injected into him from the highest heaven, which greatly improved his perception, strength and speed. In an instant, Eidolon had many more thoughts in his mind.

"I think I can give it a try?" With this thought, Eidolon once again launched the sonic weapon, indiscriminately covering the entire narrow passage! "Go to hell!" Under the sonic attack that was enough to shatter the Space Marine's power armor and body, Eidolon believed that even the Emperor's servants would die on the spot.

However, a flash of light completely thwarted Eidolon's plans. The Traveler teleported again, dodging the blow. He arrived directly beside Eidolon, slashing with his blade. With the power of Slaanesh, Eidolon barely managed to detect his opponent's movements. The thunder hammer and the blade collided, then separated, then collided again. Over the course of several seconds, their weapons clashed a dozen times. After the final blow, sending the opponent flying, the Traveler withdrew. "He" needed to retreat temporarily.

Today, with his current body and strength, the Traveler was destined to be unable to completely destroy Eidolon. Killing him once would only serve to resurrect the Dark Prince. Meanwhile, Eidolon's reinforcements had arrived, and Enkali, aboard another cruiser, had realized what was happening. The first ambush was over, and he and everyone else had to shift to a defensive position. Therefore, the Traveler decided to withdraw and temporarily retreat.

"But if Eidolon becomes the Chosen of Slaanesh, what about Lucius, the Flawless Blade?" As they departed, the traveler glanced at Eidolon's condition. After being imbued with the power of Slaanesh, he had indeed undergone a transformation. Raising one's chosen was a blessing bestowed upon them by the evil god. Both Khârn and Lucius had been killed and then resurrected. However, it was clear that this blessing could not be spread widely, and only a few could benefit from it. If Eidolon became the Chosen, then Lucius would not be. Even this so-called resurrection came at a cost: the loss of one's essence.

"Sir, what should we do?" an officer asked fearfully. After all, the Emperor's attendants' arrival meant their actions had been exposed. Next came the thunderbolt strike.

"I survived! I actually survived!" However, Eidolon didn't immediately respond to his subordinates. Instead, he was thankful to be alive. After all, although the actual fight lasted less than a minute, Eidolon felt the approach of death and the opponent's strength. The feeling of complete suppression made him feel suffocated.

"We have no choice, have we?" Eidolon sighed. "All enemies must die. Only in this way can we preserve the glory of the Third Legion and ourselves. The Emperor's Retainer must die too!" A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Eidolon's eyes. Although this man was powerful, this was his territory. Here he had a fleet and over 4000 Legionnaires, as well as hundreds of thousands of mortal troops. Eidolon didn't believe that such a large force could not defeat this Emperor's Retainer! He was the Emperor's Retainer, not the Emperor himself!

"That's right. Only by eliminating all the enemies here can you have a chance to return to the Primarch, rather than being beheaded as a sinner by Lord Fulgrim himself." At this moment, Enkali had arrived at the battleship. With the opening of the portal, the great demon and her demon army had arrived, but now, they were still wearing human appearance.

"I feel a little regretful." Eidolon said, looking at Enkali in front of him.

"Haha, regrets? You've simply embraced your destiny. Isn't my skill what you need? Isn't it what you prayed for? Doesn't this power bring you joy? You've already accepted it, but you simply won't admit it." Enkari reached out and wiped the blood from Eidolon's mouth. "Soon, even your beloved Primarch Fulgrim will fall into the arms of the Lord of Pleasure. You simply arrived before him. You will witness true perfection, learn the hidden secrets of the galaxy, and gain incredible power and joy. Feel the battle just now. Can't you already understand the might and generosity of our Lord?" Enkari's voice, like a venomous snake, echoed seductively in Eidolon's ears.

"Alright, let me take care of the Emperor's attendant, you go take out the others. Also, tell Fulgrim that if we want to keep everything secret, he must come over and discuss it. That's it. Let's move quickly. Maybe we can still make it in time," Enkali said. "By the way, give me some of your heavy weapons and armored troops. This entity is very difficult to deal with."

--------

"My lord, we can't hold out for much longer." As Eidolon issued the order, the other Emperor's Children in the fleet rushed to the flagship, ready to take back control of the battleship. It can only be said that fortunately Zavin and his men controlled the battleship's reactor and power compartment, making the other side hesitant to act rashly. Otherwise, with less than 100 people in his hands, even with the help of the Traveler, they would definitely not have been able to hold out until now.

"Then hold on as long as you can." The Traveler sensed the signal from the void. For the previous hours of battle, the Traveler had repeatedly led the charge, severing wave after wave of attacks. But this body was too fragile after all. Its psychic shields were breached by heavy weaponry, and a plasma blast could even leave a single wound on its body. Was there any justice in the world? This made the Traveler feel deeply uneasy. Moreover, at this point in the battle, the true danger had yet to arrive. A Slaanesh Daemon and her demonic army were the greatest threat. The Traveler knew she was waiting for him to show signs of fatigue, so she could banish his avatar in one fell swoop. He also held a trump card in his hand: a few of the Dreadnoughts he had controlled remained.

"Damn it! The forces we brought here are too few. Otherwise, we would have brought a few Extinction Relic Machines." The traveler felt that their firepower was insufficient and was worried about it.

"Okay, just hold on for another hour at most and we'll complete the mission. I can already feel the vibrations in the subspace, which are the vibrations from the arrival of a large number of warships. There are two groups, arriving in three batches." A smile appeared on the traveler's lips.

"Sir, this shouldn't be the case. This is different from the plan," Zavin said in shock. If it was a single fleet, it could be the Luna Wolves' or Fulgrim's. The former would undoubtedly be the best outcome, but the latter would undoubtedly be the worst. But if it were two fleets...

"Don't worry, the sons of Horus will arrive first, and the Luna Wolves fleet will be even larger. Even with the Warp Storm now appearing, perhaps Horus's main fleet will be slower." A smile appeared on the Traveler's lips. In this game, he was ultimately the better one! At this time, Slaanesh was already a little anxious. He tried to stir up the waves in the Warp to prevent the arrival of the Luna Wolves fleet. His divine power was not in vain, although it was only partially effective. Because of the Traveler's efforts, the Dark Prince's plan was only partially successful! The result is that the vanguard fleet commanded by Abaddon will arrive in this system first, followed by Fulgrim's fleet in second batch, and Horus's main fleet in third batch, but Horus' arrival time will not be much later than Fulgrim's fleet.

Fate has its own destiny. The Great Rebellion is imminent, and the gods can indeed intervene, but their power and frequency are limited. Think of it this way: everyone has a mana bar, some longer, some shorter. Using it now means less in the future. As the epitome of the underdog who rose to godhood, the Traveler is a master at calculating divine power. He excels at achieving maximum results with minimal effort.

"Little do you know that this action of yours might backfire." The Traveler smiled faintly. The evil gods were indeed powerful, but what about them? If they lost their advantage in power level and dimension, they wouldn't be invincible. After all, even mortals can outmaneuver even the great demons. And the Traveler had been battling the evil gods for tens of thousands of years from a weak position.

The Traveler in the Kingdom of Gods did not use prophecy to determine the outcome of events, because everyone was a god and could interfere with each other's fate, and the result of interference would be that the predictions of both parties would be ineffective. Therefore, the Traveler used inference to conduct the game.

Under normal circumstances, Horus's fleet would arrive here earlier than Fulgrim's fleet. Fulgrim arrived here in a hurry and his preparations were not as good as Horus's. The size of his fleet was obviously smaller than the latter. Moreover, with Horus's righteousness and his brother's majesty, Fulgrim would probably not dare to take action.

Slaanesh's strategy was to use the Warp Storm to delay the arrival of the Luna Wolves' fleet, and then allow Fulgrim's fleet to arrive first. If the latter arrived first, it would definitely destroy all traces and smash everything into pieces. Without firsthand evidence, Horus would have no way to deal with Fulgrim.

As for the Traveler's actions, He didn't directly counter Slaanesh's divine power. Instead, He chose to guide Abaddon's fleet to arrive first, allowing Horus's fleet to arrive later. This method conserves divine power. So, the situation is as follows: when Abaddon's fleet arrives first, it will undoubtedly issue an ultimatum to Eidolon's fleet. If the latter refuses, Abaddon will definitely take action. Fulgrim's fleet will arrive second. If Fulgrim doesn't take action after arriving, that's fine. But if he does, Abaddon's fleet will definitely not be able to stop Fulgrim.

Of course, this isn't the point. The point is that when Fulgrim destroyed Abaddon's fleet and tried to cover up the secret, Horus's fleet would surely arrive. What would Horus do upon seeing his favorite son being beaten by Fulgrim? Horus might have been very kind to Fulgrim, but he wasn't one to just take a beating without fighting back! If Horus still had some hesitation before the action, then once Fulgrim took action against Abaddon, Horus's solution would be absolutely clean and efficient! Of course, if Fulgrim didn't take action, the Traveler wouldn't be at a disadvantage either, as the case of Eidolon would be settled with certainty!
