Chapter 467: Saul Tarvitz

An Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children warband... This was the first time.

Saul, while running quickly toward cabin 8-13 where the invasion occurred, searched his mind for information about the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children.

Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children, the sons of Fulgrim, the former Third Legion, who took the pursuit of perfection as their duty, a legion full of pride.

However, the pursuit of perfection and pride evolved into an insatiable hunger, a desire for power and honor, and an arrogance that despised everything.

Saul looked down on these traitors; he even despised those betrayers, thinking they didn't have the pride they claimed.

Truly proud people wouldn't always put it on their lips, but would constrain themselves with strict behavior, learn and absorb others' strengths with a humble attitude, and continuously temper themselves. Pride itself was not a virtue; pride came from virtue.

And those hypocritical people who always put pride on their lips... they were actually just covering up their inferiority and emptiness. Saul despised those fallen ones who carried the name of the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children but betrayed the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang; they were just inferior clowns.

Although Saul despised them emotionally,

Rationally, Saul thought those traitorous Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children were extremely dangerous.

Arrogance twisted their personalities, the pursuit of perfection made them crazily temper their skills, and the desire for pleasure made them inject a large amount of drugs that stimulated their nerves and bodies. They were the most fallen among all traitor legions, which also meant they gained more power.

Of course, Saul wasn't worried that these guys would really cause any damage to the Lightbringer.

They could never leave cabin 8-13.

As the leader of the Primaris, Saul knew some things that other Primaris didn't know.

On the Lightbringer, in their visual blind spots, there was actually a group of shadow crew members.

These people were Saint Doraemon's invisible round hands, including Astartes trained by that Raven Guard, as well as... uh, psyker-specialized sub-humans.

Every time the Lightbringer was invaded, these shadow crew members would turn into invisible fences. If those traitors who invaded the Lightbringer exceeded the designated range, they would take action and summon other more powerful warriors to support.

Of course, if it developed to that point, it meant the Primaris had failed.

This was very shameful, and Saul would not allow this to happen.

Saul quickly arrived at the entrance of cabin 8-13————the arrangement of the cabins on the Lightbringer would make people a bit dizzy. Although there was 8-13, there was no 8-12 or 8-14————actually there were only 8-13, 8-22, 8-169, 8-222, etc.

This was also a peculiar feature of the Lightbringer. The number of each cabin was as related to the numbers 13 and 22 as possible.

Saul rushed into the cabin and heard that a battle had already broken out.

Many Primaris warriors had already engaged with those traitors who were wearing purple and black intertwined power armor and continuously making blasphemous and obscene strange laughs.

Seeing that purple power armor, a surge of anger inexplicably rose in Saul's heart.

He himself was also wearing purple power armor————did this group of traitors deserve to wear noble, glorious purple power armor?

Saul quickly searched for the leader of this traitor warband. This was not difficult. Fulgrim's sons disdained to hide themselves and would show themselves on the battlefield in the most arrogant and wanton way.

That was a Chaos Lord wearing dazzling purple Tartaros-pattern Terminator power armor, with a twisted double-headed eagle clutching a lightning pattern painted on his shoulder, his body inlaid with all kinds of bright gems, holding a weird and twisted blade, and various colors of potions hanging behind him, injected into his body through soft leather tubes.

Obviously, this guy was the leader of this warband.

Saul drew his sword and was about to jump up and slash at this Chaos Lord.

However, at this moment, the Chaos Lord suddenly raised the weird sword in his hand and shouted: "For the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang!"

Saul almost fell to the ground.

"For the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang!!"

Looking at those strange, larger-than-average Astartes, the Chaos Lord of the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children warband, Andonibal, let out a mocking war cry.

The Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children once used "For the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang" as their war cry, indicating their special status and loyalty to the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang.

After the Great Heresy, the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children still used this war cry, but the meaning had changed to irony and mockery.

The name of the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children warband was the same. It was to express their origin from the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children, and also to express irony————Andonibal had heard that the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang once used a golden eagle clutching lightning as his personal emblem.

So Andonibal twisted that emblem and used the name "Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children" to mock the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang.

For ten thousand years, Andonibal and his subordinates had been acting recklessly in the galaxy under this name full of irony and blasphemy.

Until some time ago, Andonibal took a group of people to rob an Imperial merchant ship...

This was a very simple job. It was just a merchant ship protected by a group of mortals.

Andonibal and his subordinates were all dignified Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children. This was just an ordinary looting, an insult to mortals, a slaughter, and enjoyment.

Until an attached Chaos Astartes wearing a hood, overflowing with the scent of blood, and using a chainaxe emerged from the dark cabin.

That bastard didn't know why he wanted to help the Imperial merchant ship, crazily killing more than two hundred of Andonibal's brothers. If it weren't for the teleportation function on the Terminator power armor, Andonibal himself would have folded on that cargo ship.

For a Chaos warband, the loss of more than two hundred Astartes was almost irreparable. Their gene-seed as traitors was polluted, and replenishment was already difficult.

Fortunately, Erebus sent an invitation at this time, needing Andonibal to lead the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children warband to sneak attack and harass a ship. Erebus would pay three hundred pure gene-seeds.

This was originally a good thing, but Erebus also sent someone to take over the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children.

Slaanesh Champion Lu Xiusi, a bastard who was hated by everyone, was not welcomed by the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Children during the Great Crusade. Only "good man" Tarvitz could barely tolerate him.

Just like that, he didn't know how he obtained the favor of the Prince of Pleasure and became a Slaanesh Champion. Now he wanted to take away Andonibal's warband.

Kill this bastard, this beast, this damn guy—Andonibal made such a decision.

Then, he took Lu Xiusi's life in a duel, cut off Lu Xiusi's head, killed this beast, and took his sword.

After Erebus learned of this, he indeed had more respect for Andonibal and promised that as long as Andonibal could complete the commission, he would pay four hundred pure gene-seeds.

Andonibal wielded the twisted blade he snatched from Lu Xiusi and easily cut open another red-armored Primaris, cutting and tearing his flesh and blood.

What a good sword...

Holding this sword, Andonibal felt that he was about to gain immense honor.

Such a good sword, given to that insignificant guy Lu Xiusi, was really a pity.

Thinking that he had beheaded the Slaanesh Champion Lu Xiusi, Andonibal felt a burst of pleasure and pride.

So the so-called Slaanesh Champion was nothing more than this.

Andonibal even felt that he could replace Lu Xiusi.

This was not an unprovoked delusion. Andonibal really felt that his power was getting stronger and stronger.

The blessing of the Prince of Pleasure seemed to be growing from within his body, making his swordsmanship more exquisite, his power more powerful, and his pride more arrogant.

"For the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang!" Andonibal let out a sharp, mocking war cry after slashing open another Primaris Space Marine.

"Traitor, do not blaspheme the name of the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang." Saul roared in a low voice, rolling toward the Chaos Lord Andonibal like a purple storm.

The blade in his hand was sharp and fatal, fast as a swift bird flapping its wings, pointing at Andonibal's throat in an instant.

Andonibal let out a sharp roar, raising the twisted blade in his hand to intersect with Saul's sword edge.

He noticed Saul's sharp and elegant swordsmanship, as well as the purple power armor and the phoenix paint on his shoulder.

"Ha! Brother, why are you mixed with this group of mortals?"

Andonibal smiled mockingly:

"Have you forgotten the pride of being Fulgrim's son?"

Anger crossed Saul's face. He roared and said firmly: "I am a son of Rogal Dorn!"

"... Ah?" This sentence made Andonibal stunned for a moment.

Saul seized this momentary opportunity. He swung a punch, hitting Andonibal's face directly.

Andonibal's attention was all on Saul's sword, and he didn't notice his fist at all.

This heavy punch broke Andonibal's nasal bone, and he retreated repeatedly while roaring and trembling.

"You little beast, you actually dare to touch my face————————"

Saul really wanted to swing his sword to pursue the victory, but saw that before Andonibal's words had fallen, he let out a sharp roar and howl.

"No, this is, what is this?" Andonibal looked in terror as his hair suddenly fell out one by one, and twisted wrinkles began to appear on his face, unable to stop screaming.

The power armor on his body twisted and deformed inch by inch, changing from Terminator power armor into a slim Mk4 Maximus-pattern power armor filled with twisted and roaring human faces.

Andonibal's face also moved with it, becoming one of the roaring human faces on the chest armor.

S's looked at the bald, monstrous man before him, transformed from Antonibal and covered in scars on his face.

Just looking at this man, Saul felt a surge of contempt and hatred from his gene bloodline.

This man stuck out his extremely long tongue to lick his lips, looking at Saul as if he were appreciating an interesting prey.

"Tarvitz... Saul Tarvitz..."
