Warhammer 40: From the League of Humans to Warhammer

Page 104

Such overwhelming pressure left even the Lion King, who was being repeatedly defeated by Angron and struggling to cope, stunned.

Such immense power! A demonic primal was pinned to the spot, unable to move, and now it couldn't even open its mouth.

Zhou Qing limited his power to targeting Angron, so the Imperial Guard Grey Knights and Leon were able to move. Seeing that Leon was still standing still, the Imperial Guard quickly stepped forward and dragged him back.

It wasn't until he was dragged away by the Imperial Guards that Leon came to his senses and quickly asked.

"Who is he to possess such immense power? Who is he?!"

"He is Zhou Qing, the Sun Lord, personally appointed by the Emperor, and the Imperial War Marshal."

"If you want to address him, you can call him Grand Marshal!"

Although Ryan's performance was poor, the Imperial Guard alone would not have been able to stop Angron without him. Therefore, the Imperial Guard answered the Primarch's question for the first time.

Zhou Qing, Lord of the Sun, Imperial War Marshal, Grand Marshal.

"So, he was the Sun Lord?" Leon's two guards dragged him away, then he murmured in disbelief.

Looking at Angron, his former brother, who was being pressed hard to the ground by Zhou Qing's spiritual power and was sliding down inch by inch, he saw Zhou Qing's spiritual power pressing down on Angron.

Then look at Zhou Qing, who still floats in the sky, exuding an aura of authority without needing to be angry.

Leon suddenly shivered.

If he remembered correctly, he seemed to have previously declared that he wanted to have a one-on-one fight with Zhou Qing, right?

Leon glanced at his small frame, then at his aging body, and then at Angron, who was being slowly stuffed into the ground by Zhou Qing.

Absolutely not! Let whoever wants to fight, fight. He's not going to fight. That's absolutely unacceptable!

Is Zhou's one-on-one duel really a one-on-one fight? That would obviously be a one-sided beating, which he doesn't want!

Leon frantically turned his head, trying to shake the thought of challenging Zhou Qing to a duel out of his mind.

The emperor, seated on his golden throne and focused on the situation, breathed a sigh of relief upon witnessing his son's disgraceful behavior.

It's good that he's so useless. It's better this way than if the Lion King directly challenged Zhou Qing to a duel, which might worsen Zhou Qing's perception of the Human Empire.

The fact that the lion went to challenge Zhou Qing to a duel and got beaten up by him should be considered the least problematic thing.

Leon frantically tried to banish the thought from his mind, and Earth Ring breathed a sigh of relief, but Angron was not in such a good mood now.

As Zhou Qing used more and more strength, Angron's body disappeared from the ground, and even the alloy steel plates below could not stop him from continuing to sink.

"what!!!!"

Angron's screams echoed underground, and the alloy steel plates around him twisted and deformed, but they could not stop him from sinking further.

Zhou Qing's psionic energy acted like an invisible giant hand, firmly pressing the demonic prototype deep into the earth of Narrus.

"You think Khorne's blessing can protect you?"

"I can't protect you."

At this moment, Zhou Qing was somewhat annoyed and angry. After all, he had led the fleet to deal with Abaddon, but Abaddon had actually escaped!

Those four pieces of trash from the chaos actually managed to rescue Abaddon; this was undoubtedly stabbing Zhou Qing in the heart.

Now that a Chaos Primarch has delivered himself to Zhou Qing's doorstep, it would be strange if Zhou Qing didn't take this opportunity to vent his anger. Otherwise, he would usually have dealt with this guy directly.

"Scream all you want, even if you kneel down and beg me, I still won't let you go."

As Zhou Qing spoke, an even more piercing scream came from underground.

Just as Zhou Qing hadn't killed Anglong directly, he sensed something strange coming from Anglong's body.

Before that, however, he used his powerful psionic energy to restore the Imperial Guards and Grey Knights who had been injured by Angron but were not completely dead, and then healed their injuries.

Because of the powerful vitality of the Imperial Guards and Grey Knights, they do not die immediately even if they are cleaved in two.

It was just a minor fatal wound, not worth mentioning.

So Zhou Qing stepped in and brought them back to life.

After doing all this, Zhou Qing turned his head back to look at Anglong, who was kneeling on the ground, and sensed the condition inside his body.

"What happened? I can sense that your subspace nature wasn't like this before. How did it become like this?"

Zhou Qing possesses powerful psychic energy and has been in the Warhammer universe for quite some time.

This psychic power grew stronger once again, and because of this, he was able to directly sense the warp nature of Angron.

"You shouldn't be like this..."

The nature of space doesn't lie. Logically, Angron should have developed in the direction of its warp nature, instead of as it is now.

It was this doubt that made Zhou Qing slow down his attack, and he simply continued to press him to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, a giant psionic hand appeared, grabbed Angron from the ground and threw him to the ground, making him kneel down again.

"Let me see what exactly caused you to become like this."

Zhou Qing slowly flew down from the sky and came forward to Anglong. Upon seeing Zhou Qing, Anglong couldn't help but roar wildly.

"what!!!"

"Kill you, I'm going to kill you!"

"I am going to kill you!"

Angron roared wildly one after another, but Zhou Qing ignored him completely.

"Alright, alright, stop yelling. I know you want to kill me, but wait a minute."

"Kneel down obediently and don't resist. Let me study how you managed to reverse your warp nature and turn yourself into this."

“Your situation is a complete opposite of your original one. I need to see what exactly caused this to happen.”

Zhou Qing probably found Anglong too noisy, so she paid him some attention and tried to appease him.

Zhou Qing's gentle spiritual energy entered Angron's mind, gradually calming it down and making its roars softer.

"Let me see what exactly caused you to become the way you are now."

Chapter 158 You've really worked hard, Angron

As Zhou Qing's power entered Angron's body and conducted a detailed scan, Zhou Qing arrived at his conclusion. His attention was drawn to the Butcher's Nail on Angron's head.

Then Zhou Qing took out a testing device from his bracelet and examined it in detail.

The moment the investigation results came out, Zhou Qing frowned, and a silent anger brewed in his heart.

"Whoever developed this thing deserves to be executed!"

Zhou Qing gave his assessment of the Butcher's Nail, which was simply a terrible item.

However, it would be impossible to reverse the nature of the warp so easily with just one Butcher's Nail; there must be other reasons behind it.

The things that influence the growth of a living being are naturally related to the things it encounters in its life. Therefore, Zhou Qing's spiritual energy began to surge into Anglong's mind.

Since we want to investigate how this happened, we should simply examine the other person's memories.

The first memory Zhou Qing received after his spiritual power entered Anglong's mind was of the ten thousand years of fighting. Zhou Qing ignored this and dismissed it as garbage.

"To be honest, what you've done over the past 1 years is no different from what a wild beast has done."

Zhou Qing gave his evaluation again, but after Zhou Qing gave his evaluation, Anglong in front of him roared even louder.

"Kill you, kill you, I will kill you! Offer your skull as a sacrifice to the Blood God!"

This time, the voice that came out was not Angron's voice, but a peculiar one.

"Can't hold it in anymore? You're probably not Angron."

"However, I am very curious how a chaotic demon like you came into Angron's body. He should be a lesser god in the warp, and a demon like you should not have such a great influence on him."

"Unless there's something wrong with his life, you should wait and see."

Shut up! Get out of my way! Let me study this first.

Zhou Qing unleashed a wisp of spiritual energy, suffocating the creature that seemed no different from a demon, and then amplified his spiritual energy to begin examining Angron's life story.

Zhou Qing thought Angron was quite capable during the first half of his duel in the arena.

There was no contradiction between him and his warp essence; at this point, Angron was still Angron.

Incidentally, Zhou Qing mentally sealed the fate of that planet where dueling culture prevailed. Such a planet had to be destroyed; their existence was simply anti-human.

He then continued to look at Angron's memories, and soon he saw the nobles on that planet driving the Butcher's Nail into Angron's head.

Then he saw Angron kill everyone, including his adoptive father who had raised him.

"This is it!" Zhou Qing stopped examining his memories.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should have entered Angron's body at this time to influence him, right? Well planned."

"He was at his weakest point, and you went in?"

"But that doesn't make sense. Lesser gods aren't so easily influenced by demons of your level. Let me see what happens next."

Zhou Qing continued talking to himself as if he were talking to himself, while looking at Anglong's memories.

Later, Zhou Qing saw Anglong leading the gladiators he had trained to launch an uprising and rebellion against these nobles.

However, since Angron had never received a proper education, he had no idea how to establish a stable base through uprisings and rebellions.

Instead of mobilizing the local people, he fought alone.

Fighting alone is destined to fail. When Angron continued to fight alone, the nobles sent a large army to besiege him, cutting off all their supplies.

Here, Zhou Qing saw that Anglong even used his own blood to fight for his comrades and swore to die alongside them.

“That’s right, I’m right. Although Angron’s warp nature was corrupted and affected by you, your abilities at that time should not have been enough to affect it.”

"Then something must have happened behind the scenes that allowed you to completely gain the upper hand. Let me see."

As Zhou Qing meticulously recounted his origins and past, the demons within the Angrona space began to feel fear.

The most terrifying type of person is the one who knows everything about you, including your background. This means that Zhou Qing might be able to take action against him.

Zhou Qing then saw Old Man Huang appear before Anglong and extend an invitation to him.

However, Old Huang's invitation was somewhat abstract, and Anglong, who was very wary at the time, refused it.

Zhou Qing felt that Anglong was right in this regard.
