The Emperor’s Angel of Death

Huron has been in a bad mood recently, very bad.

On the one hand, under the strong persuasion of his subordinates, Huron finally realized that if he chose to fight to the death with Soshyan in Korklia, he would probably lose completely and never recover, because the Blackstone Fortress has not yet been truly established. Being controlled by him, but the fleet of the expeditionary force has been supplemented again, and their chances of winning are really not high.

More importantly, a legendary warship appeared in the expeditionary force—

The Queen of Glory class battleship, the most powerful first-class battleship that humans can build according to legend, is unmatched by any existing capital ship of the Red Pirates.

Although Huron often compares himself to Abaddon, he now has to admit that he is still a little far away from the opponent. If he has a battleship like the Spirit of Vengeance, how can he make his men so afraid of the Indomitable Truth?

In fact, Huron knew why his opponents persuaded him. They were afraid. They were afraid that they would be sent to deal with such a warship. In their view, this was no different from suicide, and they would rather choose to escape.

Giving up Kerkeria certainly preserved his strength, but it undoubtedly sent a signal within the Red Pirates—

They may really be unable to stop the empire's expeditionary force.

For an armed group, losing confidence is a terrible thing, because the people below will instinctively attribute the problem to the weakness and incompetence of the leader. Most of the turmoil in the warband comes from direct defeat on the battlefield Fortunately, Huron gave away many "stabs" in the previous battles, otherwise the situation would be even worse now.

But according to the informant, many bosses and leaders of war gangs have begun to move closer to what they think are the "strong men", especially Zhu Fu, who took the initiative to serve as the rear for everyone in the last naval battle, has become the target of many people's bets.

Although he still shows great respect and respect to Huron now, but Huron understands the logic of "the strong dominates", and this situation will not last for too long, not to mention that there is Abaddon behind Zhu Fu.

The other side that made him feel bad was that damned Malbas.

He was indeed the one who contacted Malbas through the two fallen angels, because at that time he knew that the Raven Wing of the Dark Angel was also involved in the expedition, and his idea was to let the devil prince lure the Dark Angel's people from the maelstrom. Open, because he was also worried that the Dark Angels would really intervene in this war.

But in fact, this was a trap from the beginning, Malbas didn't intend to lure the Dark Angels away at all, instead he took the initiative to lure their large army!

This led to the situation that caused Huron a headache now, and a Queen of Glory that could not be resisted unless the Black Stone moved.

And no one can contact Malbas now, that guy is completely out of control, and Huron has no way of knowing what it is going to do.

During this period of time, he asked his intelligence chief to try to track down the matter of Marbas, but there was no result. After all, the people of the First Legion were notoriously mysterious, whether they were on the side of the Empire or on the side of Chaos. On the other hand, one counts as one, and there are not many who can speak well.

If Malbas really insisted on not leaving, Huron really had nothing to do.

Although the situation has not completely collapsed, Huron has already felt a sense of crisis.

He needs an ally, an ally who can exchange benefits and is not so capricious.

More importantly, an ally strong enough to help him defeat Soshyan.

Tzeentch was visionary but too perverted.

The laws of Nurgle would cause the entire system of the Red Corsairs to collapse in a swamp of disease and decay.

Slaanesh was never on Huron's mind.

Khorne utterly despises visionary minds and lives to kill, kill, slaughter, regardless of the consequences, only for the honor of fighting.

Just when Huron was in trouble, a follower of the Dark Mechanicus visited him and brought him a choice.

He had seen that person before, with a spiral mask on his face, and his origin was very mysterious. He had been selling his weapons and the terrifying killing robots he made in the Red Pirate's barracks.

But he doesn't have a name, he only calls himself [肖].

"Why should I trust a guy who hides his head and shows his tail?"

In the private chamber of the Huron flagship, the Lord of the Maelstrom stared at the mechanical heretic who was much smaller than him, and his throat was filled with viscous gurgles when he made a sound.

The other party's entire body was wrapped in a black robe, revealing only a whirlpool-like mask and a pair of mechanical arms.

After a while, a mechanical monotonous voice came from under the mask.

"My lord extends an olive branch to you and is willing to sponsor your war. The choice is yours, Black Hearted King."

"Huh, sponsorship? Great style."

The left side of Huron's upper lip rose slightly in a slight sneer.

"It's nothing more than a demon. I can even laugh at the envoys of the four gods. What right does your master who devours the residue of the subspace have to show off in front of me?"

Huron has always been impatient with demons. Even those very famous demons can gain some of his respect compared to the previous demon princes, but demons are just lackeys of the evil **** behind them, and Huron never likes to be with lackeys. deal with.

Demons may be useful tools, but despite their power and supposed knowledge, they can still be tricked and outwitted by mortals.

"Devil? No... If the Black Heart King is interested, he might as well watch it for himself."

Huron frowned, watching the mechanical heretic open his arms, and the robe on his body was pushed away like a curtain, revealing a wide mercury mirror.

Maybe it was another devil's trap, using some hallucination to confuse his mind, but Huron still stepped forward.

On the one hand, he has enough self-confidence, on the other hand, his intuition tells him that maybe this is really rewarding.

As he kept getting closer, a majestic scene unfolded in front of him.

In the darkness, there was a faint blush at first, and then his eyes gradually deepened as if they were attracted.

In an instant, a dozen gigantic funnel-shaped objects appeared in the infernal light, floating in nothingness, arranged radially like the spokes of a wheel, with their mouths towards the centre.

Each is the size of a planet ~www.readwn.com~ the bottom stretches out into the darkness, and any stars light them up.

The top of each funnel is like a big mouth, emitting a blinding red light, continuously spewing out red and black smoke. Huron looked close to one of them and could see a cloud of dust. Not only scary smoke, but also weapons.

Billions of weapons, as well as armor, chariots, artillery, fighter planes, battleships, demon engines, and even Titans, all weapons with names and names that cannot be named, spewed out on an astonishing scale Out, drifting and spreading through the dark void.

Suddenly, Huron remembered a rumor.

It is said that somewhere in the subspace, there is a huge arsenal, which does not belong to any evil god, so demons often go to that factory and sign a contract with its mysterious master. Some demons are purely to obtain a shortcut to improve their combat power. And in order to gain the favor of their master god, others want to be free from **** and don't have to endure the shame of exile for a long time.

This is also the origin of most demon engines.
