Chapter 478

Kossolax felt that all the bones in his body were broken, embedded in the shattered steel around him, bloody and blurry, painful and unbearable, hideously painful. His eyes were also filled with overflowing blood, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

Buzz... buzz... buzz...

The Butcher's Nails on Kossolax's head were still buzzing, urging Kossolax to succumb to rage.

Buzz your Erebus's mother, rage your Erebus's father. You're almost dead and still buzzing here; can't you let someone have a moment of peace?

Kossolax suppressed the anger whipped up by the Butcher's Nails without much effort.

Before dying, he wanted to enjoy a little quiet, enjoy a moment of peace.

Why didn't he die directly?

That hundred-armed Khorne giant beast could undoubtedly easily crush Kossolax and take Kossolax's life.

But it didn't. It seemed to have held back at the last moment. Although it crushed Kossolax's whole body under Erebus's order, it just happened not to kill Kossolax directly.

Perhaps it still remembered the kindness of Kossolax, as the dignified World Eater Regent, feeding it personally————let's count it as having a bit of conscience.

But this actually didn't have any meaning. This Conqueror had already been captured by the loyalist guys, and Kossolax's fate was already doomed.

He could only wait for death to arrive here...

Speaking of which, where would he go after he died?

The Golden Wang Zuo is definitely out of the question; the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang would definitely not save him, this traitor.

Is there still hope for the Huang Tong Wang Zuo? Hiss, Erebus seemed to claim that he came as the deputy of the Blood God's will, and Kossolax betrayed Erebus. Does that count as disobeying the Blood God's will?

Kossolax, who realized this, felt his heart go cold, secretly saying that this damn Butcher's Nails harmed him in the end.

How could he be so impulsive and swing his axe at Erebus?

Now it's good; even the chance to return to the Huang Tong Wang Zuo is gone.

What kind of fate will his soul fall into?

Become food for some group of demons? Be crushed by the waves of Chaos?

However, Kossolax couldn't say he didn't regret betraying Erebus and slashing Erebus.

He even felt proud, felt a sense of honor he had never felt before.

And Lady Sarrin also promised Kossolax to promote him to Legion Captain————hey? Wait, did she promise?

Kossolax pondered for a while and found that he hadn't heard Captain Sarrin's echo before he was created by the Khorne giant beast.

This made Kossolax a bit worried. If he died, would Captain Sarrin posthumously promote him to captain?

The World Eaters didn't seem to have this precedent...

At this moment, Kossolax began to resent Khârn and Angron again.

If it weren't for them, the Butcher's Nails wouldn't have been implanted in Kossolax's brain, and he wouldn't have fallen into this state.

If there's a next time, when he sees Angron or Khârn, even if he doesn't live, he will slash them hard with an axe.

"Still alive, what good luck," a dull voice suddenly rang in Kossolax's ear.

Through the blood stains covering his eyes, Kossolax vaguely saw a figure wearing red armor, exuding the scent of blood, stepping on broken steel bars from a high place and falling toward his direction.

Kossolax was immediately moved to tears.

A loyal subject is seen in times of trouble!

This World Eater actually took such a big risk, braving the encirclement of the loyalists, and rushed here to save himself.

A loyal subject and a good general! Oh my Sanguinius, oh my Rogal Dorn!

Kossolax had already decided that no matter who this warrior was, he would reward him, promote him, and even bestow upon him the title of "Loyalist."

He would also give him glory, loudly proclaim his achievements, let everyone see the brilliance of this loyalist, and let those traitors like Khârn feel ashamed.

"Be quick, my loyal subordinate."

Kossolax tried his best to maintain his dignity, coughed up two mouthfuls of blood, and said to that World Eater warrior he couldn't see clearly:

"The shameful traitor Khârn is still wandering in the Conqueror, the ambitious Ultramarines, the Blood Angels who painted themselves red like us, and the Raven Guard who hide in the shadows and dare not fight me head-on are all in it."

"If you want to save me, you must be fast, be hidden, and keep your sanity."

Kossolax's words made that warrior who came to save him stunned, seemingly not understanding what Kossolax was talking about.

This made Kossolax feel annoyed. How could he, as the dignified World Eater Regent, be so ignorant of the art of governance and language?

He should not only discipline his subordinates and maintain dignity in front of them, but also reward them and maintain a kind image.

He should take good care of his subordinates' psychology————this was one of the reasons why Kossolax could gain the allegiance of several warbands and thousands of World Eaters.

"My loyal subordinate, don't feel fear because of the enemies I mentioned."

"It was Erebus's betrayal that made me fall into this state. As long as I recover, no matter who it is, Erebus, Kaelen, Sharrowkyn, or even Khârn, are nothing to fear."

"And don't worry, as long as you save me, I will reward you."

"I will bestow upon you the title of Loyalist, let you be a captain, command the most elite troops for me. First Captain, how about that?"

This made that warrior laugh out loud. He extended his bare arm wrapped in iron chains and carried Kossolax's broken body.

Wait, a bare arm wrapped in iron chains?

Kossolax's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately had a bad feeling.

No, no, no, this should just be a coincidence, right? It must be a coincidence, right?

There are actually many people in the World Eaters who dress like this.

"Alright, Regent, I'll be your captain."

"Forget the First Company; I'll still be the Eighth Captain like before." The dull voice rang out, and Kossolax's two hearts jumped violently.

Just at this moment, the blood stains sticking to Kossolax's eyes were washed away by his tears, and the scene before Kossolax's eyes gradually became clear.

"Khâ... Khârn..." Kossolax trembled all over.

"It's me, Regent, your captain, the loyalist Khârn."

Kossolax's eyes rolled back, and he fainted directly.

And when he woke up, what happened also made him feel a bit confused.

He met Holy Doraemon. That great existence in Erebus's mouth looked no different from a mortal.

But Kossolax soon witnessed this person's power.

He easily treated Kossolax.

Although the method was a bit weird, it was taking a big, black, and thick sword and stabbing it into Kossolax's body.

The black sword pierced through Kossolax's chest, piercing his two hearts. Kossolax's eyes went dark, and he almost thought he was dead.

But in the blink of an eye, he found that the wounds on his body had healed.

Holy Doraemon gently praised Kossolax's courage in launching an attack on Erebus and hoped that Kossolax could lead these World Eaters he commanded to obey his orders.

This made Kossolax a bit hesitant.

But thinking carefully, Kossolax disobeyed the Blood God's will and betrayed Erebus; continuing to worship the Blood God was obviously unlikely.

As a traitor, a regent of a rebel legion, it was obviously impossible for him to follow the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang.

Nurgle, Kossolax didn't want to become a stinky can.

Tzeentch, the Lord of Change, requires IQ and academic qualifications; Kossolax happens to lack both. He doesn't even know High Gothic.

Slaanesh, that belongs to art students; Kossolax's artistic bacteria are a bit insufficient.

Of course, there are some secondary existences in the Warp, but these existences in Kossolax's view are purely wild enterprises; none of them, like Marris or Be'lakor, are very reliable.

After pondering carefully, he seemed to have only the bright path of defecting to Holy Doraemon left.

Especially seeing that Khârn and Captain Sarrin had also surrendered to Holy Doraemon, although hesitant, Kossolax still chose to convert and agreed to lead the World Eaters under his command to surrender.

When Khârn appeared to announce the fate of the World Eaters, there were still many warriors in the audience who looked restless, and the Butcher's Nails buzzed.

Although Khârn was once the Legion Commander of the World Eaters in the true sense, he had betrayed the Legion and abandoned the Legion after all.

When Kossolax appeared to announce all this, the World Eaters were calmer, but their eyes still carried suspicion, and the Butcher's Nails were still buzzing.

Kossolax did receive the allegiance of these warriors, but he was still inexperienced and not convincing enough.

The key blow came from Lady Lotara Sarrin. When this captain of the Conqueror stood before them, those veterans of the Long War froze in place. Even the World Eaters most severely eroded by the Butcher's Nails trembled, unable to believe that the person they thought was dead in their hearts had returned to the world of the living.

Lotara Sarrin told of the Blood God's betrayal and told of Erebus's actions.

She asked the World Eaters if they wanted to be free people who resisted, or continue to lick Erebus's ass and be a slave?

So the World Eaters roared their oaths in anger, swearing to cut off Erebus's head, to take revenge for the Legion, for Sarrin, and for the Conqueror.

And then what happened was the happiest and most glorious moment of Kossolax's life.

Khârn knelt before him, lowering his head to indicate that he would honor Kossolax as the Legion's Regent, transferring all his power and obligations to Kossolax in the name of Holy Doraemon.

And Lotara Sarrin personally picked up an iron crown forged from blood and the steel fragments of the Conqueror's bridge, crowning Kossolax, making him truly the Legion's Regent.

Even Holy Doraemon blessed Kossolax. He praised Kossolax, saying that Kossolax was simply the Guilliman of the World Eater Legion, a diligent regent.

He bestowed an item containing powerful power upon Kossolax. That item was called the High-Efficiency Pill, which was said to be able to improve the efficiency of doing everything after taking it.

The glory Kossolax had once longed for had come before him just like that.

He was very happy, until he returned to the bridge.

Mountains of documents lay before Kossolax; this was his work as Regent.

"Hey! Not good!"

"Seems like something is wrong!"
