Chapter 605 Sacrifice and Hope
Guilliman did not forget the mission entrusted to him by the Emperor.
In fact, his conflict with Horus lasted only a few minutes, and it was Horus who started it.
The Primarchs received Guilliman's lessons in a strange atmosphere. They quickly learned what happened in the other universe and what the Emperor wanted them to do.
"Some brothers have gone astray in parallel time and space, but they have not reached the point of irreversibility." Guilliman said slowly, "Father hopes that you will be more vigilant and guard against contamination from subspace."
The Primarchs looked solemn.
The Great Crusade lasted for more than two hundred years, and the subspace was always quiet, which made them numb and careless.
But after listening to what Guilliman said, from now on, the subspace is their number one enemy, and they will never take anything coming from the subspace lightly again.
"It is absolutely unforgivable to betray someone knowing that you might betray him." Guilliman gave Horus a deep look.
Due to his own experience, he did not like Horus anyway.
"I will use my actions to prove who is the emperor's most loyal heir!" Horus snorted, "You will know what unspeakable loyalty is!"
Guilliman nodded: "I hope so."
He paused and then continued: "I have said everything I need to say. After taking you to parallel time and space, Horus will still direct your actions."
"I have other tasks."
He wants to awaken to the true nature of the warp and help the Emperor play a grand game of chess.
Horus was surprised.
He thought he would be stripped of his status as Warmaster, but instead of being stripped of his status as Warmaster, the Emperor allowed him to continue commanding the other Primarchs.
What a trust!
Horus's affection for the Emperor reached a new peak. If the other person in parallel time and space was still alive, I believe Horus would not hesitate to use his head to prove his loyalty to the Emperor.
Horus turned to look at Mortarion and the other traitor Primarchs. He smiled and said, "Brothers, do not betray the Emperor's trust in us."
The traitor primarchs curled their lips and said nothing.
"Let's go," Guilliman said.
The originals returned to their flagship, and the overwhelming fleet moved slowly. They entered a dark wormhole and jumped from this time and space to another.
The Emperor sat cross-legged on the deck of the battleship.
The subspace near the battleship is extremely peaceful, like a docile kitten, with no intention of causing any trouble.
This is not just the Emperor's fault.
The God-Emperor is also here.
He sat opposite the Emperor, his face expressionless.
His true form is still on distant Terra, and what appears here is his psychic projection, visible only to the Emperor.
They looked at each other.
Will it be like this if you fail?
The Emperor pondered.
He had seen himself like this in psychic prophecies, but he in the prophecies was too powerful, and even the prophecies were distorted beyond belief. It was not until this moment that he truly felt what failure meant.
Mixed beliefs filled his body, forming a thick shell around his subspace projection, almost covering his original personality.
He maintains His existence with difficulty.
But over time, these beliefs eventually overwhelmed Him.
At that time, mankind will come to an end.
He will ascend to the throne of the Lord that countless creatures covet, and in the name of the God of Corrosion and Destruction, he will descend into the past and future, bringing more darkness to this already dark universe.
He will become what He hates.
The God-Emperor said nothing, and his eyes were terrifying, mixed with all the negative emotions that humans have had throughout the ages: madness, greed, hatred, jealousy, contempt, irritability, and bloodthirst.
He has struggled with these negative emotions for ten thousand years, and now he no longer has the ability to express them.
Maybe on Terra, but not in the distant warp.
"I can understand your situation." The emperor said slowly, "Next, you listen to what I say."
"This parallel time and space has become corrupt."
"If you also fail, the evil forces will account for the majority on the Chaos Eight-Pointed Star, and the entire universe will reach its inevitable end, and no miracles will happen."
The God Emperor was indifferent, as if he didn't hear anything.
But He didn't leave.
The Emperor understood what kind of state the God-Emperor was in, and he said to himself: "I come from parallel time and space, and I am the only variable in this universe."
"I am ready to promote Guilliman to the throne of god."
"Generally speaking, the birth of a major god requires the sacrifice of a powerful race like Eldar or humans."
"I plan to first use my parallel time and space to turn Guilliman into a human racial god."
"I need you to weed out the harmful parts of the faith and ensure that Guilliman, who has become the god of his race, is not swayed by faith."
“It adds a lot to your burden.”
Human faith is powerful and terrifying at the same time.
The reason why the God-Emperor was able to persist for ten thousand years without becoming a god was not just because he blindly accepted the negative elements in his faith.
While receiving, you are also purifying.
Quite a few negative components have become harmless components.
Just like this, entering and exiting, the God Emperor barely managed to keep himself from being swallowed up by negative elements.
But if he helps Guilliman filter out the harmful elements in his faith, the speed of his purification will be far less than the speed of accumulation, and his "life span" will be shortened sharply.
"After this, we will board the God of Corruption and Destruction at the same time, and work together to put Guilliman on the throne of the Lord."
"After I become the God of Corrosion and Destruction, I can still retreat."
"But you can't."
The Emperor paused for a few seconds, and after realizing that the God-Emperor had not left, he continued.
"You will become the god of erosion and destruction, and humans in this parallel time and space will be destroyed."
"But if the plan goes well and Guilliman becomes the main god, I will bring him to my world, and then my world will have hope."
"Other parallel time and space will also usher in hope."
The Emperor's plans were astonishing.
He was prepared to sacrifice the God Emperor and the humans in this parallel time and space in exchange for a comeback opportunity in other parallel time and space.
"If you don't leave yet, I will assume that you agree with my plan."
The Emperor stared at the God-Emperor.
This was a face that looked exactly like his, but he couldn't read the God-Emperor's thoughts through this face.
Swish—the figure of the God Emperor disappeared.
The Emperor frowned slightly.
If he wants Guilliman to become the main god of this parallel time and space, he must get the help of a main god of this time and space. He cannot do it by himself.
He needs the cooperation of the God-Emperor, otherwise his plan cannot be implemented.
At this moment, a hollow voice sounded from the bottom of his heart.
"good."
The emperor's brows widened. (End of chapter)
