Chapter 171 As long as Morgan launches an attack(1/3)
...
When the Lord of Mankind personally told his most beloved heir: Horus on his [Emperor's Dream] that the latter had an unexpected sister, he had a plan to let him
Horus came to guide and educate the newly returned Primarch.
Jonson is not suitable for this job, and most of the other descendants of the Lord of Mankind do not have the corresponding experience and patience: Fulgrim may be happy to guide a blood relative, but his performance does not make people thoroughly
Rest assured; Sanguinius may be more trustworthy and reliable than most of his brothers, but his attitude towards the Lord of Mankind is far from close.
As for other Primarchs: they do have the ability to do their best, but they are also more likely to screw up.
As for taking Morgan with him, he would teach him personally like Horus, Magnus or Vulkan; or express it like Leman Russ, Ferrus and Mortarion.
Goodwill and building bonds: It is not that the Lord of Mankind does not have this ability, but he no longer has the mood or leisure to repeat these tender tricks on Morgan and those heirs who have not yet returned.
Whether it is the current Morgan or the Primarchs belonging to the Eighth, Twelfth and Nineteenth Legions after Morgan, they are destined not to get a more tender father-son recognition: they have not caught up with a good time, human beings
The remaining softness in the Lord's heart has been exhausted by increasingly heavy wars and trivial matters.
In the more than seventy standard years of Terra before Morgan's return, except for Alpharius, who is still in a secret state, the Lord of Mankind has publicly welcomed back his fifteen children. He has tried his best to
The earth maintains an attitude of intimacy with each returning heir:
He accompanied Horus for thirty years. He left Leman Russ with the humorous competition and the Spear of Dionysus. He gave Fulgrim the honor of the Imperial Sky Eagle. He and Magnus even more
He has been friends with God for a long time, and his respect for Dorne is visible to the naked eye. He took Vulkan by his side to guide him personally. His battle with Ferrus leveled several mountains. He guided King Connaught to find the infant.
Guilliman, he tolerated Sanguinius's mutations and offenses, he ignored Jaghatai's dissatisfaction with the tyrant, he left the most important war to Jonson, he ignored the information about Mengele
He personally accompanied the resentful Mortarion to select weapons. He even endured the misunderstanding of being regarded as a god and watched the worship procession of his god on Lorgar's home planet for a whole month.
During this long period of time, he did release his kindness to the greatest extent possible, even if they sometimes did not receive very positive feedback: Sanguinius, Jaghatai, and the nagging Mota
Li An, they always have reasons for dissatisfaction, which also makes him feel tired and tired of this kind of warm stage play day after day.
Especially after the incident with Mengele and his legion, it was like the last tender straw that completely broke a certain thread of patience in the emperor's heart...
…
etc.
Did he forget something?
...Forget it, that shouldn't be important.

All in all, with most of the Primarchs returning and the Great Crusade completely on track, the Emperor no longer needs to establish more bonds with his new sons: not to mention those who have not yet returned.
There is indeed no special person like Clover who needs his special care.
In this case, the Emperor would involuntarily turn his attention to Horus.
Horus always makes the master of mankind feel reassured: the Wolf God may not be able to do his best, but he will never let things turn out to be disappointing, as long as he still retains this precious quality.
He is enough for the Lord of Mankind to entrust him with anything.
Horus was not the best choice for many things, but he was definitely a universal and unmistakable choice: in the Emperor's mind, this was what his best heir should be.
What's more, Horus has proven his success in leading his blood relatives: Fulgrim, Sanguinius and Jaghatai all followed the footsteps of the Wolf God and slowly understood humans.
empire.
Presumably, Morgan will not make any additional mistakes: she is much better behaved than Sanguinius was when he just returned.
As for Jonson's attitude: In the emperor's understanding, his son from Caliban is a calm and eccentric knight. He prefers to stay alone in his castle, surrounded by submissive knights.
, it is already a kind of torture to have such a son who likes to be alone side by side with his blood relatives for so long. Zhuang Sen must also miss those cold days.
Everyone has their own preferences and inherent responsibilities. Even the emperor does not want to forcefully violate this. Horus, who is keen on making new friendships, is certainly more suitable for the responsibility of accompanying new blood relatives than the quiet Jonson: as for him
The little selfishness in the heart of my favorite Wolf Shepherd.
Let him be.
It's just a bit of human nature to strive for power. Since the Lord of mankind is not attached to the so-called throne and power, how bad can Horus's little ambition and greed be?
Once the Master of Mankind has solved his long to-do list, he will easily mediate these problems: including the simmering conflict between his Wolf Shepherd and his Mark Bearer, the Emperor is not a
A mortal king who is keen on fighting among his subordinates, he sincerely hopes that his last old friend can get the praise and respect he deserves, but he really doesn't have time now.
Just be patient for now.
Let it go first.
When he finishes all this, he will definitely deal with these things.
Just wait until he finishes all that...
——————
Horus found out on the Emperor's Dream that he had a sister: and they had met.
And he received another order on [Spirit of Vengeance]: he will be responsible for the education of his blood sisters, just like he guided Fulgrim, Sanguinius and Jaghatai before.
Frankly speaking, Wolf Shepherd's heart is not at peace right now, it can even be said to be in a state of turmoil.
When Horus found out that the [Soul Drinker] was actually his blood relative as Jaghatai said, his first reaction was to recall as completely as possible the time he and Morgan had spent together in Drew.
When he got along with En Xingxing, he didn't really feel relieved until he confirmed that he didn't show any bad side at all.
But despite this, he was still a little surprised about Morgan's identity.
Even if he personally cut off a mountain-like head during the war with Ran Dan, the shock did not completely disappear from the depths of his heart: but compared to King Barbarus on the side, Horus's performance
But it was much better. Mortarion had been talking there alone for a long time, his mouth full of dissatisfaction and complaints about the second wizard's blood relative.
The Lord of Death's attitude towards his new blood relatives can even be called contempt, but that's all. Whenever he sees the corpses of the Randan soldiers who left deep scars on his legion, he will
Thinking of the story that was circulated on the war front about the illustrious achievements of the [Soul Drinker]: every time he thought of this, the vicious accusations in his mouth would suddenly lose the motivation and support to continue.
The Primarch of the Death Guard never bothered to deny the achievements of his blood relatives: he disdained such so-called achievements, and was unwilling to become a self-deceiving liar like a certain tyrant.
But this only made him feel more uncomfortable.
A wizard, a blasphemous master of psychic powers: even his blood relatives have actually made undeniable achievements: Every time he thinks of this, Mortarion can't help but wave his scythe violently, destroying everything he can see.
All the aliens can be described as rubbish.
It's all because of these alien scum, these weak things, that are not worth mentioning at all, so the so-called [Soul Drinker] has become a legend in the mouths of fools.
There are also his brothers: Zhuang Sen, and that Mengele. They are too weak and have no tenacity that has been beaten by suffering. They actually have to drag out such an opponent for such a long time and even defeat them.
Death is the reason why a mere wizard can become a so-called hero among the people.
If he had known earlier, he would not have left the front line against Ran Dan: he would definitely be able to take his descendants to clean up these alien scum, solve the battle in the shortest time, show the world the power of Barbarus, and show the world science
with the power of reason, rather than letting a wizard feel complacent there.
He should have done this...if he hadn't really couldn't stand the Caliban...
The poisonous atmosphere lingering around Mortarion has become more arrogant because of his anger and self-isolation. Now, only his closest descendants can stand by his side and continue this massacre with their genetic father.
When Horus led his Council of Four Kings to successfully join forces and rob the largest Randan battleship, bathing in everyone's cheers and celebrations, the Death Guard had already joined with their genetic father to bring the entire
The alien fleet killed each other: but compared to the glory of the Luna Wolves, the descendants of Barbarus were much clumsy, and their casualties were not so good-looking. When Mortarion returned to his
When the brothers were around, even the mortal auxiliary army couldn't help but lower their cheers by a few syllables.
Mortarion didn't care, but the poison that haunted him became even more rampant and serious, even forcing figures like Abaddon to turn away.
But Horus didn't care. He stepped forward, hugged his brother in front of everyone, and then put his ear to his ear and told him an idea from the Wolf Shepherd.
——————
Immediately after the massacre of Ran Dan's fleet ended, the two Primarchs had already arrived on the First Legion's "Indomitable Truth" on a transport plane.
It was a quiet journey. Mortarion was holding a box. His already thin and gloomy face was now even more gloomy, as if Barbarus had been blown up.
Horus, on the other hand, was sitting aside, thinking quietly about something, his expression changing back and forth between frowning, thoughtful, and a sly smile.
If the Wolf Shepherd, who had just learned about Morgan's identity, was in a state of shock, then the current Lord of the Shadow Moon Wolf had completely calmed down during the battle and was thinking instinctively
A question arose that he was extremely concerned about.
Morgan.
His sisters.
Lord of the Second Legion.
It is also a person appointed by the emperor, and he can reasonably keep him by his side for a period of time in the future.
A man who seemed very capable, but without the arrogance of independence, and who commanded a legion that was already closely coordinated with his Luna Wolves...the Primarch.
…
The return of a blood relative naturally made Horus feel instinctively happy, but...
Can he... find something beneficial to him in these identities?
Horus couldn't help but start thinking.
The first moment he learned of Morgan's identity, Horus actually had a kind of panic: the fleet that belonged to him, the main force of his Second Legion of [Power], those elite Terran veterans who mastered many mysterious weapons
, maybe from now on it will no longer be his power, but will be close to those already powerful Dark Angels: this even made Horus feel some new pressure, some pressure related to invisible competition.
However, when the Emperor's new orders came one after another, an idea also arose in Horus's heart along with this order: His brother Jonson has never been a master of interpersonal relationships, so making blood sisters more difficult
Being close to oneself is not a big problem for Horus.
To be continued...
