Chapter 563 Planning
"You don't get to choose, but if I were him, I would definitely show up when you least want to fight..." Corax said to Calvin, and Calvin shook his head and smiled bitterly, reluctantly admitting that since Mortarion entered this world, the initiative was no longer in his hands. The consequences of not being able to stop Mortarion at the beginning of his advent have already appeared, that is, Calvin cannot keep tracking Mortarion under the threat of the Black Legion. That's too dangerous. If the two families intend to merge, Calvin and his new legion will only end in defeat. But if a divine incarnation of the Lord of Plague is left alone and wanders around the empire like this. Then, under the spread of his terrifying power of plague, the damage that Mortarion can cause to the empire will even be far greater than Abaddon's Black Legion. He must be eliminated! Calvin is determined to deal with this threat even at a heavy price. And he also has his own trump card: That is, in the soul position that Corax cannot observe, he is really qualified to permanently harm Mortarion. Yes, it is difficult to kill him, but it is not difficult to leave him with irreparable scars.
Mortarion's strength is based on his own strength, but his transcendence comes from the cohesion of Nurgle's divinity.
The authority of the gods makes him almost immortal, ignoring physical and psychic attacks, and resurrecting from the warp again after being severely injured repeatedly.
But Calvin also has his own reliance, that is, the authority of order based on his will, and an equal or even superior transcendent existence.
And, most importantly, he also has a divine soul!
This divinity also gives him various conveniences, and what is specifically reflected in the battle is his existence itself, which is the anchoring of fate in the long river of time!
This is what Corax cannot do, and even this Raven Lord who has awakened the essence of the warp cannot see things by his own power.
Like all the Primarchs, his power is limited to the destruction of the flesh. Even if he awakens the essence of the warp, he cannot really touch the soul and the deeper "roots".
However, Calvin, the outlier among the Primarchs, is different. His existence itself is a long nail that can firmly nail the gods' behavior of tampering with cause and effect by subverting time in any war he participates in or witnesses!
The last battle on the Spirit of Vengeance was like this. The situation at that time was too special, which made Calvin and Mortarion both cautious.
The Spirit of Vengeance and Abaddon's Black Legion occupied too much of Calvin's energy, making him worry that if he failed, the situation here would be completely corrupted.
Mortarion was afraid of Calvin's power, because from the moment he saw this later Primarch, the divinity in his body reminded him:
This is an opponent standing on the same level as him. Fighting with him is a "war of gods" without any easing and tolerance!
God War, a term rarely mentioned in the real universe, but Mortarion is not unfamiliar with it.
It is a real game between gods, and it is also a war that truly determines the order of power among gods in the subspace.
On that eternal battlefield, countless demons sang the name of their Lord and died in countless bloody worlds;
It is precisely on this battlefield between the gods without resurrection and reloading that true seeds can be produced, taking root and sprouting after absorbing the blood and souls of enemies and comrades in endless battles, and embarking on the road to godhood of transformation into demon princes!
Motarion never participated in such battles. In fact, other great demons with close ties to the gods rarely appeared.
Except that Khorne never concealed his true nature, so that his demon princes always appeared without scruples on any battlefield where they could harvest heads.
Other great demons and demon princes belonging to the three gods would never appear on such battlefields except for the rotation that could not be shirked once a hundred years.
This is the protection of their own divinity and foundation, and the ten thousand years of bloody battle is, in a sense, the favorite battlefield of the blood god.
Motarion did not have an urgent desire for power, and the loving father Nurgle and many great demons did not recommend him to go to danger in person.
But now, Mortarion was in this remote place in the real universe, and his divinity told him that he was facing an opponent that was as threatening as the "Ten Thousand Years of Blood War".
This forced him to carefully examine Calvin and think whether this was another conspiracy against him.
This suspicion reached its peak after the appearance of Corax. Although the existence of the Raven Lord could not be observed, Mortarion still instinctively sensed something strange in Calvin's shadow.
The feeling was vague, but it was enough to make his decayed skin feel stinging.
Mortarion had no doubt that if he really tried his best to kill Calvin, then what was waiting for him would definitely be a fatal blow from that shadow.
Mortarion retreated, just like he had in the past, looking back and forth and strange doubts, always occupying too much weight in his life.
But this time, it must be said that his doubts did save his life in a sense.
"We should kill him. Even if there is no chance, we should create one!" Calvin paced back and forth. The more he thought about it, the more he felt the danger of Mortarion.
He and his Death Guard can not only cause physical damage to the empire's territory like the Black Legion;
Once he is given the opportunity and time, this guy will definitely leave a large area of the world that cannot be recycled to the empire!
He has to find a way! And he was also confident of dealing with Mortarion.
Today's situation is different from when I was on the Soul of Vengeance:
Corax was at his side, and Lucius's support fleet had arrived.
This means that he will no longer be in a one against two situation in the battle between the original bodies.
Lucius's reinforcements are a sign that the empire's power in the Gothic sector has begun to grow after the slow response mechanism finally started to operate!
As long as we fight steadily and step by step, it is not impossible to deal with these two enemies at the same time with the size of the empire.
And if he is given a chance, then Calvin is absolutely confident that he can let Mortarion know what the collective will of the Gray Knights is on another battlefield!
"Inform Terra of the direction and ask them to relay signals to the Pacific Star Territory and the Storm Star Territory!"
In front of Corax, Calvin ordered Tebos in the direction of the bridge:
"Inform the battle groups in the other two theaters to mobilize their forces and rush to the Hazy Star Territory immediately to prepare for war!"
