Chapter 1353, Lustria General Mobilization
Spring of 2526 Imperial Calendar, New World, Lustria, Itza, the original city.
An ominous omen has descended on the vast land of Lustria. The humid air floating in the rainforest already feels heavy, but it is even more depressing at this moment. It seems that even the "soul" of the rainforest itself is holding its breath, like a beast called "nervous" is stalking.
The great and glorious Itaza, the place where the Old Sage first descended, the first generation of the old devil toad who has come to this world for 15,000 years, the Lord Crocker opened his eyes on his golden seat.
The Skinlizard priests in the Great Pyramid are jumping up and down excitedly. Between the hot springs and waterfalls, among the lotus leaves, and in the moss-covered gaps, the stone slabs of the Old Ones light up repeatedly. Under the dim eaves, countless alert eyes are peeping.
The call of the Saurus War Scar veterans is echoing in this misty land. The Saurus Guards are fully focused, waiting for the arrival of the enemy, yes, the enemy will definitely come.
But neither how the Skinks use their mystic divinatory powers, nor the sacred plaques inscribed with celestial omens, the greatest and most prolific work of magic on the planet can tell the Lizardmen when the enemy's attack will come, Where will it come again.
As always, the lizard people pinned their hopes on the Slans, and they firmly believed that the magic toad priests would tell them the answer.
Crocker's awakening was just right, the old devil toad realized the changes in the world the moment he regained consciousness, the maelstrom has been completely disbanded, the eight winds of magic have found their masters, the prophecies of the ancient saints are still obscure refugees, and the arrangement of the stars is chaotic There is no chapter, when Crocker tried to look through time and look into the future, what the old devil toad saw was destruction and death.
The power of Xieyue Moslib has always troubled the prophecy ability of the magic toad. Once upon a time, the magic toads could almost predict that anything that might happen in the world, but since the first chaos invasion, Xieyue Moss Libu covered the stars and everything, and the wind of chaos on the huge planet, the laughter of the evil gods and the powerful green light interfered with the prophecies of the magic toads, otherwise the servants of the ancient saints would never have fallen to this point.
The magic toads of Moon City have tried countless methods to try to push away Mosribu, but none of them worked, nor did Lord Crocker, because wanting to have the power to explode stars is a lie in itself, especially in the maelstrom. Under the interference of the Great Lord Crocker, the power that Lord Crocker can exert is only a small part of its former glory.
However, now that the maelstrom has disappeared, even though the power of chaos has become stronger, the magic toads have also found that their imprisoned power has been unchained. Many fourth and fifth generation magic toads wake up from their sleep. Passing communications to each other, discussing the future of the big plan, discussing the sun, moon and stars revolving in the sky, looking for the omen.
Crocker felt his power,
The Lord of the Devil Toad realized something, it continued to sink its soul into the subspace to realize everything, Crocker was thinking about what to do next, and what else it could do.
Mortals are still as stupid as ever. Crocker immediately understood what happened in the world within a few minutes. The Great Venerable questioned the intelligence level of the ancient races. Peace, the white wolf god Urik defended Middenheim according to his promise, and Ryan repeatedly defeated the attacks of the Skaven and the Chaos army. Most of the races of order are unqualified. They have no able to accomplish their task, which has plunged the world into great danger.
After all, they are still too young and superficial. When the darkness strikes, these races of order lack foresight, and they still hesitate for their own interests (referring to the dwarves). Sometimes they are very naive and only know how to fight civil wars (referring to the elves). Lilith, the newly promoted god of gods, has some foresight, but her foresight is more reflected in playing power and manipulating the results.
And the proud son of the Old Sage, as the servant of the Old Sage, the Great Lord Crocker knew that he was different from them. From the moment it was born, it accompanied the Old Sage to travel the stars, sow civilizations, create races, and the Milky Way. Which Gaia planet has it not been to? Even Crocker experienced it firsthand when the Old Ones probed their consciousness into higher dimensions, deep in the realm of the soul, to negotiate with the Supreme Being.
It has seen too much, and even the lord of mankind is not qualified to sell his old age in front of it.
It's just that the glory of the Old Sage is in the past. Now, as a concept of race, the Old Sage has been extinct in the galaxy.
The moment the maelstrom was established, the magic toads realized that the elves had won a short-term victory, and a frenzy was hidden behind this short-term relaxation, and one day it would flock to the whole world, and one day the maelstrom would be Disintegrate, and Chaos will return.
"Great lord?" The Skinlizard priests around were eagerly waiting for Crocker's will, but they saw the great venerable signaling them to be calm, and saw the soul of the great lord roaming among the stars, relying on Mind connected to time and space, Kroc reads the language of the stars.
In the end, Crocker found the answer. Outside the giant eternal warp space storm, an Old One in the form of an old man on a planet sent a message, and Crocker grasped every word of it keenly. , Thunder flashed in the mind of the great lord.
"Great Lord?" Seeing that Crocker seemed to have fulfilled the prophecy, the skinny priests around asked again. In their eyes, Crocker had already opened his eyes, and he looked a little tired. There were hundreds of messages from other toads, and the young ones were waiting for Crocker's answer.
"The big plan has failed." Crocker's first words caused a huge wave in the Skink Priest and the Slann LAN: "Big misfortune is coming, and the big evacuation plan should be launched!"
"Everything is in the prophecy of the snake god Sotek. Our old enemy, the Rat, is about to attack. Let all the temple cities prepare for war and wake up all the Slann!"
"Yes!" The Skink Priests scattered in all directions.
"Tell Fulgrim, Old One's son of Costantinian, to gather all the armies, we need his help."
"Send the snake god prophet Tehenhauin, we need the power of the snake god army."
"To start the summoning ceremony, we need the power of the wanderer Nakai."
"Prepare for the summoning ceremony, and summon the Shadowless Hunter—Oxyyotan."
"I need to get all the eldest sons of the Old Sage ready for battle within one moon cycle."
……… I am the dividing line ready for battle………
The lizardmen began to prepare for battle, and a psychic communication was sent to Constantiniya, the base camp of the Legion of Ashes.
After so many years of preparation, with Fulgrim's order to assemble all men, the Legion of Ashes began to mobilize all soldiers, preparing for their destined, final decisive battle.
The Primarch told everyone the importance of this war through simple narration. If they can't stop the Skaven, their homeland will fall, Lustria will fall, the whole world will fall.
Regardless of Fulgrim's personality charm + super leadership + command art + personal bravery, the speech of the Primarch of the Emperor's Sons is enough to make the soldiers of the Ash Legion excited. Fulgrim actually knelt down.
The Primarch told his descendants about his original sin, the mistakes he had made and what his legion had experienced. Forgan told everyone about his legendary adventures, how he rose on a miner planet and Finally became king, his origin, because of the pursuit of perfection and arrogance, he fell, and in the end he destroyed himself and also destroyed the entire legion.
If Ryan hadn't given him a second chance, he would have fallen forever.
Fulgrim's declaration shocked the entire Legion of Ashes. No one thought that such a perfect, proud, and powerful legion leader would have such a past.
Just when everyone was shaken, Fulgan told everyone firmly that although the past was too heavy to breathe, they still have a chance now, a chance to redeem their sins, and they will wash away the shame of the past and recast the emperor. The glory of the emperor's son, he comforted the third legion to have a better destiny in the future, and encouraged the whole army not only to break the misfortunes of the past, but also to achieve outstanding achievements that no one dared to imagine. As long as they can defeat the Skaven, As long as the Lizardmen can help the great temple cities, as long as they can save the fate of the whole world, Fulgrim will allow, and the Emperor will allow the Legion of Ashes to raise the flag of the Emperor's Children and the Imperial Skyhawk again!
"The air is full of gunpowder smoke and blood."
"The Emperor's Children have been torn apart. They only have the flames of lust to light their weak souls. Those proud warriors of the past have either died for thousands of years, or lingered under the shadow of the Prince of Darkness."
"But the story of our Emperor's Children is not over yet! Come with me and look east!"
"See? Soldiers of the Ash Legion, the sun, the sun rises in Constantiniya, this is the new residence of our Emperor's Children, and our new spiritual home."
"We are strong and strong, we are prosperous and powerful, and in our team are elves, dwarves, warlocks from Arabia, knights from Britannia, and loyalists from the empire!"
"When the world rotates to three percent and coincides with the two moons, the evil animal gods release the plague and plague on Lustria."
"Legion of Ashes, the Eastern Light of the Empire, the new era of the Emperor's Children, please follow me, Fulgrim, and welcome our new life!"
"Looking at this eagle flag, do you see the fire-bathed eagle claws on it?"
"Let's get ready to fight!"
"Fulgrim! Fulgrim! Fulgrim!"
"Ashes! Ashes! Ashes!"
People were boiling. At this time, no matter what race, no matter what nationality or belief, people of different skin colors and races were united under Fulgrim's command, and the Phoenix Guards even made an oath to follow to the death.
They are ready to fight.
However, not all members of the Phoenix Guard were excited by the scene in front of them.
One of them was always puzzled by Fulgan's speech.
He was Suria's elder brother, and he had been genetically modified in the hatching pool during the Holy Grail expedition, inoculated with the Fulgrim gene seed, and became Julius, a member of the Phoenix Guard.
Due to a coincidence and Fulgrim's indulgence to him, Julius served under Fulgrim for many years, learned a lot of inside stories, browsed through many manuscripts, and learned many secrets in the history of the Emperor's Children Legion.
He didn't know why, but he was not convinced by Fulgrim, especially after learning that he had become Fulgrim's "child".
No, how did my brother-in-law become a nephew?
At the same time, Julius, who was taught by chivalry since he was a child, was not very interested in Fulgen's so-called "glory of the emperor's son", and was deeply surprised why the once so proud emperor would fall.
With a lot of questions in mind, Julius knocked on the door of Forgan's bedroom in the middle of the night.
"Boom, boom, commander, are you there?"
"Who is it? Yuli?"
"Well, it's me."
"It's getting late, come in."
Ryan's brother-in-law pushed open the door of Fulgan's room. He just raised his head and was about to say something, but his expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly withdrew from the room and closed the door: "Legion commander! What are you doing?! "
"?" Fulgrim in the room had just taken a bath. He was naked, only holding a small purple towel embroidered with a golden double-headed eagle pattern hanging on a certain part four inches below his belly, just like Constantine. It is as eye-catching as the flagpole at the gate of Niye Palace.
Fulgan just got out of the shower and didn't want to get dressed, so he took a towel and hung it up, sat on the velvet sheet, took the ukulele and planned to play the first touching holiday ditty, but Julius came and saw His heir was very embarrassed, but Fulgan was calm and composed. He was proud of his beauty: "I'm not embarrassed, what are you doing there? Didn't you come to find me? What's the matter hiding outside the door and talking? Come in." .”
"Put your clothes on, please! Would you please show me some basic respect? Legion Commander!" Julius called from outside the door, he was ashamed and annoyed.
"Okay~Okay." Fulgen expressed his helplessness to Julius's persistent inability to let go. He thought to himself that my perfect body was obviously a disadvantage for me when you saw it. Why is Julius so shy? ?
He casually took a bathrobe and put it on God, and fastened the belt casually: "Okay, come in."
Just then Julius came in, and saw a handsome man half lying on the bed wearing a bathrobe looking at him with a half-smile. Fukun himself had fair skin and delicate bones, as if he was blessed by ancient gods. The pride of heaven. Under the gray hair was his handsome face, and his two purple-blue eyes shone with a pleasant light.
Julius couldn't help but blushed. The brother-in-law swallowed and forced himself to calm down: "Legion Commander, there is something I want to ask you."
"Let's talk, we are all one family. You can call me brother like Suria and Ryan, or you can call me Sir like Pirazzo, don't call me Legion Commander, it's so natural." Forgan showed a brilliant look Smile: "Say something."
"About what you said before, your former legion, the Emperor's Children..." Julius hesitated for a while before he said: "Then, after this battle is over, the Phoenix Guard will follow you back to the one you mentioned. What big empire?"
"Of course, but not so fast." Fulgan nodded, and the bathrobe on his chest slid, revealing his purple-white chest muscles, which reflected the dazzling brilliance of moonlight: "I will tell you everything in it Having said that, I know that you are the first heir to the Duke of Winford's family. It is not good to leave with me immediately. I have not taken away your reproductive ability. When the matter is over, I will allow you to return to Britannia to inherit Duke title, I will give you thirty...fifty years, you can always give birth to and cultivate offspring who can take over, right?"
"Um, I'm not talking about that." Julius waved his hand awkwardly: "I mean, if you return, what about the other wargroups? For example, the Iron Hands warband you mentioned? Yes, you have fallen so deeply, how should your former heirs deal with it?"
"This is not something you have to consider, dear Yuli." Forgan smiled: "Father will solve it for us, and I will also try to deal with it. You don't need to think about these things. Besides, you are Suria's brother. No one else will come to trouble you."
Julius always felt that Fulgrim was talking about him, and he resolved the two consecutive problems. The brother-in-law thought about it, and decided to go straight to the core: "You have fallen because of the pursuit of perfection, so you still believe in perfection. Is it?"
"I fell because of the arrogance and jealousy that resulted from the pursuit of perfection. This actually has nothing to do with the pursuit of perfection. I will continue to pursue perfection, but I will continue on my path with vigilance and introspection." Forgan nodded: "The Malcador Sealer once said that the fall of the Emperor's Children is not because they are complacent after they have achieved perfection, but because they are always frustrated in their pursuit of perfection, and they always find themselves flawed, so they will eventually be physically and mentally broken."
"What my Emperor's Children and I were aiming for at the time was something that would never be attainable, and the result of their painstaking efforts will naturally deteriorate and eventually become a decayed afterimage. Julius, I understand now Flaws are always there, and so are the Emperor's Children. We were once blinded by this, but now we must all heed this lesson. We are obliged not only to look back at our glorious past, but also to understand the tragedy of these failures and ruins. "
"That's it." Julius was taken aback by Fulgen's words, and the brother-in-law thought it made sense.
"And...is there any other questions?" Forgan spread his hands.
"There is another question, look, this is the history of the legions you wrote. It mentioned that there were twenty legions during the Great Crusade, but the second and eleventh legions... my lord, I think I have the right and the obligation You must know the truth, what happened to those two legions?" Julius insisted: "I think I have the right to know!"
The smile on Fulgrim's face faded away.
It was updated, and I finally caught up. In the evening, I had a whole cow feast with Dafeng. It was great, and Dafeng laughed at me for being too light, KUSO! Obviously he has a strong taste, eating so salty! And spicy!
