Their purpose in capturing human Navigators is to utilize them for Warp travel and establish their own empire.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Black Emperor consolidated all the information he knew about the Q'orl and transmitted it telepathically to both of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am very interested in their Queens.

Though the Black Emperor's command differed from Lord Horus's task of slaughter, the Black Emperor's will superseded all else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As You command.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Lord,\" Arkhas added, \"there is a warrior in my 89th Company who is exceptionally talented.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Arkhas recommend a talented individual, Nareth asked with interest,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is his name?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"His name is Alastor Rushal. His battle-brothers in the company call him the Raven.\" Arkhas Fal continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Though young, he has proven himself in a series of battles and is highly praised.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing the name Alastor Rushal, Nareth immediately knew who Arkhas was recommending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alastor was a Raven Guard, but after the Dropsite Massacre, he joined the Night Lords and became a member of the Kyroptera.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Kyroptera was the future ruling council of the Night Lords, composed of the Legion's high-ranking members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a certain Campaign, Sevatar, seeking an advantage in the intense internal power struggle within the Legion, brought Alastor into the Kyroptera.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though a member of the Kyroptera, Alastor was actually in an awkward position; he commanded no military forces of his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Alastor's abilities were considerable. Crucially, since he was willing to betray Corvus Corax, his will was not unshakeable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant he could be \"corroded.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Prepare a frigate. Load the sacrificial items. Order Alastor Rushal to escort them,\" Nareth instructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell Horus this is in gratitude for my rescue of you at Xana.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arkhas was taken aback. He looked up into the depths of the mist, seeing only a vague, indistinct figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Shadow Lord of the Nineteenth Legion, he immediately grasped the Black Emperor's implied meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Lord, You do not wish them to know that I serve You.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Correct.\" To ensure the Emperor entrusted the relic Shrieking Void to the exiled Terran-born he trusted, Nareth needed Arkhas to maintain appearances as usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Furthermore, you and Nerat should not interact frequently from now on. Do not let anyone discover your close relationship.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Corvus Corax would not exile all Terran-born immediately upon his return. To bring them all under his command, Nerat Keelin had to remain with the Raven Guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This would allow him to take the remaining Terran-born away before the Heresy, and also learn something from Corax.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Nerat, as a Terran-born, was not favored by Corax and would not even meet his Primarch before being used as cannon fodder at the Forty-Two Gate, the Ashen Claws was still a Chapter reformed according to the Raven Guard's new combat doctrines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black mist swallowed them. Nareth sent them out of the Kingdom of Disorder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Segmentum Pacificus, Svejk System.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flagship of the Nineteenth Legion, renamed by the Shadow Lord as the Sea Monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arkhas sat on his throne. \"Have the Arc Projection Guns been issued?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shadow Lord, they have been issued. Each squad has one,\" the Honor Guard Captain immediately replied to the Legion Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Excellent,\" a slight smile appeared on Arkhas's grim face. \"Remember the appearance of the xenos Queens. Capture them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will present them to Lord Nareth. He extended his aid to us on Sha'nir II.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Lord, Nerat's company has, as you ordered, locked onto a chain-ship. They are preparing to simultaneously board when it disassembles.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good,\" Arkhas's tone was flat. \"Blockade the other ships. Do not let any xenos vessel slip away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He and Nerat had agreed before parting yesterday: the ocean world was for him, the \"Sailor.\" The secrets of the xenos ships were for the \"Mystery Pryer\" to explore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Arkhas maneuvered his ships to blockade the Q'orl vessels, Nerat was already stepping off the ramp of the boarding torpedo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The \"Mystery Pryer\" heard the buzzing drone of wings. He raised his bolt pistol and fired directly into one of the dozen or so labyrinthine entrances before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a bang, the round detonated against a xenos, its papery form shattering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nerat's subsequent bolts pierced the mist, striking the xenos' slime-coated bodies, blasting them into bloody mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Guard members looked towards the passage entrance. The xenos shrouded in mist had six eyeballs, their compound eyes arranged in vertical pairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The xenos possessed a bird-like beak. Their bodies were encased in a material resembling brittle paper. This outer surface and tough, sticky inner surface formed a garment like a sleeveless short coat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adamantium-tipped rounds shredded the xenos' papery clothing, detonating within their bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accompanied by piercing buzzes, xenos after xenos flew out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their bodies quivered. The surrounding air seemed sucked away by a fan, drawn into their bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst a series of pops, invisible gaseous bullets were expelled from their rear ends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A string of crisp impacts rang out as one Guard member's power armor was struck repeatedly. The ceramite visibly crumpled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nerat noticed the mist-like compounds in the air. Simultaneously, the \"Mystery Pryer's\" psychic intuition warned him that something was flowing through the atmosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew this was the chemical mixture secreted by the Q'orl's complex chemical glands. The xenos, lacking auditory organs, communicated through colored hormones and fluid pheromones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nerat ordered on the company comm channel: \"Target their upper bodies! That's where their sacs are! The xenos communicate with secreted hormones!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Astartes immediately aimed their bolters at the xenos' upper torsos. Bolts thundered. Q'orl sacs ruptured one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slime splattered everywhere. The labyrinth entrance was covered in disgusting grey-black fluid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The xenos' attacks immediately became disorganized. Impacts clattered against various power armor suits, causing no damage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the dense barrage slaughtered the surging tide of xenos, the Guard Captain stepped forward. He stopped before stepping in the disgusting slime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shrugged and joked, \"These xenos are disgusting. But this is the only passage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The \"Mystery Pryer's\" eyes glowed with a red-black light. Seconds later, he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, that's a trap. We take this passage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed to the third passage on the left of the one from which the Q'orl had emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you enjoy the story, my p@treon is 30 chapters ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[email protected]\u002FDaoistJinzu\u003C\u002Fp>",1147,"2026-06-06T05:05:27.510Z",1,"novelbin.me","4e87c29bc7a1c8d8b8adadf619bd610c83d313e6f87203ae0b5ebc8df44c34d3","warhammer-the-11th-primarch-the-black-emperor-chapter-506","warhammer-the-11th-primarch-the-black-emperor-chapter-504",698,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwarhammer-the-11th-primarch-the-black-emperor-cover.jpg"]
