Man in Warhammer, starting Primarch

The four Primarchs talked for a long time in this cage. When Dukel arrived, even the loyal Gray Knights and Sisters of Silence were evacuated.

No one knows what exactly was exchanged between the four great Primarchs in the cage that day. It's just that when the Gray Knights left, they heard a word that was mentioned many times by the original bodies - Ran Dan.

Randan's aliens formed an alliance and caused great trauma to the Empire during the Great Crusade.

In that battle, humanity, as the overlord of the galaxy at that time, invested nearly half of the empire's troops. Most of the galaxy was ignited by the flames of war, and Ran Dan's alien army was completely defeated, but it also paid a huge price.

The First Legion, the Dark Angels, suffered heavy losses.

The Primarch of the Second Legion was completely eliminated after that battle.

The Emperor was humiliated and ordered all memories of the place to be wiped away, completely burying this history in the ages.

No one remembers what happened there, not even the great Primarch.

But even so, during the conversation with his brothers, Duker still learned two precious pieces of information.

——Ran Dan The alien controls a powerful psychic technology.

——Although they have been completely defeated, they have not truly perished. They are still lingering in the vast galaxy, waiting for their resurrection.

After learning these two important pieces of information, Duker's reaction exceeded everyone's expectations.

All the Primarchs present believed that Duker would be eager to find traces of Randan's aliens and unearth the secrets that had been sealed for thousands of years.

But Primarch No. 2 didn't do that. He just ended the conversation between brothers and left silently.

And when the primarchs parted, everything was calm again,

Duker and Magnus returned to the scientific research team and continued to invest in the construction of the Second Legion; Guilliman also returned to his office as usual to handle heavy government affairs; and Fulgrim Still imprisoned.

It's like nothing happened.

Duker's scientific research team has achieved significant results after nearly half a month of sleepless research.

Not only has the surgical plan for the Second Army been completely finalized, but research on weapons and equipment has even begun.

For the two great sages, this is also a rare opportunity. The original body's psychic force field can shield the influence of Tzeentch to ensure that their designs will not be quietly contaminated.

One brand-new technical problem after another was solved by this scientific research team one by one.

Until this day, Shivala came to the laboratory of the scientific research team with the first batch of surgical candidates recruited from the reserves of the Second Army.

As the first batch of pre-selected candidates to undergo the transformation of the Primaris Space Marines of the Second Legion, they play more of a role as experimental subjects and need to bear great risks and an unknown probability of death.

As volunteer soldiers, we also know this very well.

But even so, before the operation began, Duker wanted to emphasize the risks of the operation again.

But when he saw that the twenty-two soldiers who volunteered to participate in the surgical transformation were all from the Krieg Legion, and even Krieg's Political Commissar No. 22, he swallowed back the reminder.

Because there is no need to remind you.

For these soldiers of the Krieg Legion, let alone the unknown risk of death, even if there is a 100% probability of death, they will not hesitate to fight for a miracle beyond that probability with their lives.

Under normal circumstances, the Empire will select adolescent males aged 14 to 18 as recipients of Astartes surgical transformation.

Humans at this stage have stronger body plasticity than adults, which can reduce the risks of surgery to a certain extent.

But because of the existence of life magnetic field and spiritual cultivation technology, the age limit is not so strict.

Twenty-two Krieg soldiers accepted the primarch's encouragement and were put into surgical transformation.

.

The basement level of the machine shop.

After a long wait, Dukel finally received the news that the surgical transformation was successful.

On the underground floor of the current workshop, in this vast and empty experimental site, there are cages engraved with runes.

Duker stood in front of the cage, blocked by a layer of special glass. Through the glass, the original body could clearly see the demonic bodies full of blasphemy and madness in the experimental site.

In each cage engraved with runes, there are no less than twenty Chaos Demons imprisoned, and at a glance, there are already more than four hundred.

Gris and Caul were standing next to the original body, and the two great sages were observing various parameters through the computer.

The Psychic Guards led by Efilar and Shivara held bolt guns with solemn expressions.

Duker looked at the demons in the experimental site through the special glass.

For the first time, when he looked at the demon, there was no disgust or murderous intent in his eyes, but full of joy.

Today, his first child is about to be born.

This vast experimental site is the playground he prepared for his children; and these hundreds of demons are his children's first toys.

How could he not be happy on such a beautiful day?

"Your Highness, you can begin."

Gris, who was setting parameters in the computer, reminded him.

"Then let's get started. Let's not keep him waiting too long." Dukel said with a smile.

As his words fell, thick steam suddenly rose in the experimental site, and an elevator engraved with an imperial double-headed eagle slowly descended.

Standing in the elevator was a powerful warrior over two meters tall, holding a chainsword and wearing gray-red power armor.

Seeing the appearance of this human warrior, the demons in the testing site suddenly fell into even greater madness.

They let out twisted and weird roars, constantly colliding in the cage, hungry to taste the flesh, blood and soul of this human warrior.

"Open a cage first."

Duker ordered to Gris on the side.

As his words fell, a cage was opened, and the demons who had been impatient for a long time came out in an instant.

But facing the approaching demons, the human warriors standing on the field did not make any move. Instead, they raised their heads and looked at Dukel who was behind the special glass.

"Please open all the cages, great father of genes. The power I inherited from you is far beyond what these poor demons can bear."

After hearing this, the original body burst into laughter.

"That's true, that's how it should be!"

"Gris, open all the cages!"

Dukel said with a smile.

"But, Your Highness," Gris showed a hint of embarrassment, "Just using the chainsword and facing more than twenty Chaos Demons at the same time is already extremely dangerous for the Astartes. I'm afraid if you open them all."

"You have never fought with Duker, so you don't understand, Gris." Magnus, who was hanging on the waist of the original body, suddenly said at this time,

"For Dukel, the chain sword is actually a burden. He brought it with him just to enjoy the fighting process."

"This brother of mine is the most powerful when he doesn't use any weapons."

"And as his heir, it must be the same."

Magnus' tone was filled with emotion.

Although he didn't want to admit this, he could clearly draw this conclusion by reviewing the previous war.

Duker fought back and forth with him while using the chain sword. Although he suffered fifteen huge wounds, he still managed to hold on for a long time.

So what's the opponent's record when he's empty-handed?

Just look at the Keepers of Secrets, Fulgrim, and Fateweaver.

The Keeper of Secrets had his head pulled out; Fulgrim was severely injured by a knee and became paralyzed; Fateweaver was punched several times until he was dying.

The strength of these three is not inferior to him, and Fulgrim is even stronger.

When Duker heard this, he glanced at Magnus in surprise. He had never revealed this to anyone else, but unexpectedly, his brother was keenly aware of it.
