He nodded to Ferrus, glanced at Nareth, then shifted his gaze to the expressionless Perturabo and the amiable Vulkan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden light blazed. The Emperor and Constantin Valdor appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After taking his seat, the Emperor's gaze fell upon Nareth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nareth, you achieved a brilliant victory at Taxal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, I want to hear your report personally.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth's gaze swept over the assembly, over the somber Perturabo, over Hannibal with his prominent cheekbones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Lord, the victory was not mine alone. Perturabo's iron defense line, established in the Vicious Sector and the Forge World of Sha'nir, held back the xenos advance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"El'Jonson, Guilliman, Omegon, and the task forces from the various Legions fought bloody battles at Taxal to secure victory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I thank them for their timely support.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After expressing his gratitude, Nareth detailed the war. The Emperor occasionally nodded and asked questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, he outlined his next plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have already issued orders for a comprehensive purge of the remaining xenos that invaded Imperial territory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth did not mention his complete plan, the Rangdan Xenocides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recalled the last battle of the Second Rangdan War occurred in 882, ending with an accidental encounter between Imperial and Rangdan fleets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Third Rangdan War began in 887, when a White Scars hunting company accidentally discovered the Rangdan homeworld.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In 890, led by the Lion and Russ, seeking retribution for the desecration of the Omnissiah's sacred domain, the Forge World of Sha'nir committed its Legio Cybernetica.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the Third Rangdan War was not as large-scale as the second, the Imperium's northwest frontier still trembled. Astartes casualties exceeded eighty thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of those, the Dark Angels lost fifty thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After this war, combined with the ninety thousand lost in the Second Rangdan War, the Dark Angels ceded their position as the largest Legion to the Ultramarines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the remaining thirty thousand casualties were Space Wolves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth had no intention of giving the xenos nearly a decade to develop. With the Dice of Prophecy, he could naturally find the Rangdan homeworld and launch the Rangdan Extermination War in advance, before they could regain their strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good, very good,\" the Emperor nodded with a smile. \"My Pegasus does not disappoint me. All enemies of humanity will ultimately fail.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at Russ and continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Dulanians have blinded the Wolves. Their advance is slow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Pegasus, you will secure victory for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Russ clenched his fist. \"Father, I can bring You victory. The Dulanians will be punished.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your progress does not satisfy me.\" The Emperor's smile faded. His voice was commanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Russ suppressed his anger and looked at Nareth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'He's just been through a major war. Nareth and his witch-boys should decline.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As you command.\" Nareth answered directly and sincerely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been planning to capture the Wolves' leverage and obtain the Dulanians' unique technology. Now the Emperor was handing him the task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth glanced almost imperceptibly at the Lion. In his memory, the Emperor, dissatisfied with the Wolves' progress, had dispatched the Lion. Now he was assigning it to Nareth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Emperor, I am very satisfied with your orders this time.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the War Council ended, Russ was about to leave in a fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Russ, you don't need to deliver it. I'll come and get it myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Russ glared at Nareth. \"I will not break my oath.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Wolves need no witch-boy assistance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guilliman, seeing the conflict between two of the Dauntless Few, frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having fought alongside Nareth, he was more convinced than ever that Nareth was the key among the five. Russ's provocations would only lead to crushing defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth smiled as Russ's psychic projection vanished, then returned to the Shadow's Sovereignty with Guilliman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After repeatedly weighing and deliberating without finding the right words, Guilliman finally said helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nareth, it was a pleasure speaking with you. I look forward to our next meeting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After seeing Guilliman off, Nareth said to Arsena Dunn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell Sanchez: it's time to collect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze was cold. His tone was sharp as a blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same moment, aboard the Space Wolves' Gloriana-class battleship, Hrafnkel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cloak made from the pelt of the great wolf Black Mane hung naturally. Russ paced along the outer edge of the observation chamber's arc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the simple, rapid Fenrisian battle-tongue, he asked Jorin, Wolf Lord of the 13th Great Company, the one he trusted most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell me honestly. What is the real situation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Difficult,\" Jorin walked slowly beside Russ. \"They all fight to the last drop of blood, knowing there is no retreat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jorin,\" Russ nodded. \"I believe you. I have never doubted you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But the bastards on Terra won't see it our way. They only see that we haven't finished it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whenever the battle is at a stalemate, they think we're just indulging in slaughter, not mounting a proper assault.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Allfather...\" he said wearily, \"has been deceived. He has decided to send Nareth to finish this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Nareth. Sanchez.' Jorin chewed on the two names. The bitter memory of Fenris's defeat stung him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We have no friends on Terra. The other Legions are completely different.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Russ clenched his fist. \"We have received our orders. We must carry them out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To survive. Just like on Fenris.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Imperium is being built. The worlds conquered by my brothers are meticulously recorded on golden scrolls.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But that is not our way. Where the Wolves pass, only ruins remain. We take everything. Nothing grows.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jorin saw a shadow fall over the Wolf King's usually smiling face. Russ roared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jorin, I swore to Malcador. I will kill the Tyrant of Dulan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If we fail, those who scheme against us in the shadows will step forward and condemn us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And I will not allow Nareth to kill the Tyrant of Dulan before me. I hate seeing him win so calmly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He...\" Russ paused, changing tack. \"I will find the Dulanian's evil capital, Dulan, before Nareth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will set fire to Dulan, burn it to ruins.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Old friend, will you help me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, my Wolf King.\" Jorin's weathered face was resolute. He answered without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'For you. And for myself.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You must move quickly. Find Dulan.\" Russ's large hand landed on Jorin's shoulder, warm and powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't lose to Nareth's witch-boys.\"\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>",1149,"2026-06-06T05:05:27.789Z",1,"novelbin.me","06a277fcfde844df9059f689a177928f6f2ca20d5167144da11dd795aa4cfa4f","warhammer-the-11th-primarch-the-black-emperor-chapter-581","warhammer-the-11th-primarch-the-black-emperor-chapter-636",698,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwarhammer-the-11th-primarch-the-black-emperor-cover.jpg"]
