985. Chief of the Gorgons: Ferrus Malus (III)
[You didn't care about Ferrus's slight sarcasm towards you. ]
[You care more about the loyalists being able to escape from the battlefield of purgatory on earth that is about to unfold. ]
[You took a deep breath. ]
[You immediately signaled Corax standing beside you with your eyes to come forward and tell Ferrus, the commander-in-chief of the battlefield, about the many important information you brought. ]
[With a solemn expression, Corax told Ferrus that you came from the future, that Isstvan V was a trap set by Horus, and that the subsequent support legions had already rebelled. ]
[However, Ferrus's attitude was just like his indestructible iron hands, and he did not show any emotional fluctuations in response to Corax's words. 】
【"As loyal descendants of the Emperor, our Primarchs were born to face countless desperate situations on the battlefield! Do you think the Iron Hands Legion didn't face such a situation during the Great Crusade? With a total of 200,000 Astartes in our three legions, can't we completely turn the tide of the war and use Horus' trap as a furnace to eliminate traitors?"】
【Ferus stared at you with a cold expression and said in a deep voice. 】
【One of his metal hands subconsciously grasped the flaming sword that had been hanging on his waist. 】
【"In addition, I have a personal grudge to settle with Fulgrim face to face! If you don't want your descendants to pay the price of casualties, you can evacuate Isstvan V in advance. As the commander-in-chief of the battlefield, I will not block any of your decisions!"】
【However, at this time, Ferrus's voice had just fallen. 】
【You completely ignored the gestures that Corax and Vulkan were trying to comfort you. 】
【Your huge body immediately drove the golden-glowing Vibranium Power Armor forward. ]
[You looked down at Ferrus's resolute face from a slightly higher position than him, and said in a sarcastic tone. ]
["Do you think all the Astartes can safely evacuate the trap set by Horus himself? At this moment, the fleets from the other four traitor legions have arrived in the Istvan system. Will they watch your fleet leave safely?"]
["Ferrus, as your Primarch brother, I have to remind you that your anger and hatred for Fulgrim have completely exceeded your responsibility as the Primarch of the Legion and the commander-in-chief of the battlefield! Any hasty decision on your part will cause countless Astartes heirs to be buried here!"]
[Your low words made Ferrus's brows twitch slightly. ]
[The other party's metal hand subconsciously clenched into an iron fist, emitting a harsh sound of metal twisting and rubbing. 】
【"Little brother, how many large-scale battles have you participated in? Do you know that as long as we can complete the blocking battle against Horus here, we can..." Ferrus seemed to take a deep breath, and the other party tried to suppress his anger and spoke to you quickly. 】
【However, at this time, Ferrus's unfinished words were completely interrupted by your wave of your hand. 】
【You stared at the other party's deep eyes with cold eyes, and spoke almost word by word. 】
【"Ferus! You have no future! Do you understand? At the beginning of this battle, when you chose to face Fulgrim alone, you were already dead at this moment! Your best Primarch brother chopped off your head, and your head was even given to Horus to play with!"】
【"As far as I know, your head and corpse were completely lost on the chaotic battlefield. It was only after the end of this great rebellion that Guilliman and Rogal Dorn jointly found your head!"】
【At this moment, your low voice made the Primarchs present fall into silence on the spot. 】
【As precious time passed by, Ferrus, whose facial expression gradually recovered from shock to indifference, subconsciously loosened the metal palm holding the flaming sword. 】
【"Little brother, if this is my final fate, then I choose to accept my fate... But countless Astartes heirs cannot be completely destroyed here, and my other primarch brothers cannot die here either."】
【Ferus stared at your bronze face and said in an extremely sincere tone. 】
【"I think the anger and rage against the traitors have indeed greatly affected my judgment of the battlefield situation, so I will hand over all command authority... Little brother, are you willing to take a gamble with us primarch brothers?"】
【Hearing the other party's words, you subconsciously took a deep breath. 】
【You turned your head while driving the vibranium power armor and looked at Corax and Vulkan who nodded slightly in agreement. 】
【“Since the worst-case scenario is that a Primarch dies in battle and 200,000 Astartes are wiped out, then every time we successfully change the battlefield situation, we may be able to save some of the Astartes descendants and even change the fate of Ferrus’ death!”】
【You said solemnly to the three Primarchs Ferrus, Corax and Vulkan. 】
【“Then come on, brothers… Let’s survive on Isstvan V!”】
【You successfully replaced Ferrus’s position as the commander-in-chief of the battlefield and gained the command authority of a total of 200,000 Astartes from three legions. 】
【Countless Astartes from the Salamanders, Raven Guards, and Iron Hands Legions were connected to your Vibranium Power Armor in the form of light spot signals. 】
[Your communication devices and various data processing systems from the future are far superior to today's communication technology and battlefield command systems, which is one of the sources of your confidence in being the commander-in-chief of the battlefield. ]
[You took deep breaths repeatedly between your mouth and nose. ]
[You are gradually entering the strategic command state that Guilliman once taught you, and have also brought in Perturabo's mentality of commanding large-scale troops. ]
[However, before the vanguard of the three legions launched the first attack on the Black Desert position where the traitors were located. ]
[You deliberately instructed Ferrus not to have any contact with Fulgrim's position. Even if the other party came to find him, Corax or Vulkan must engage in battle with the other party. ]
[Ferus, with an indifferent expression, swore to you in the name of the Emperor that he would definitely abide by the agreement between him and you. ]
[You then found Corax, who was separating tens of thousands of Raven Guards to ambush and guard against subsequent raids. 】
【Without any hesitation, you poured most of the dark shadow power in your body into the opponent's huge body. 】
【Just when Corax couldn't help but open his eyes wide and asked you what kind of power this was. 】
【You stared at the opponent's face and said in a calm tone. 】
【"Corax, this is the precious gift you once gave me, and it is also a blessing I give back to you!"】
Thank you for your support!
