Chapter 984 Desperate enough
Magnus was like a dead man now. Even if Leman Russ increased his strength little by little, he did not react at all. He just shed colorless tears from the corners of his eyes.
The last fig leaf he covered for his dignity was his love for his offspring, but now it seems that he not only does not love the Emperor, but also does not love his offspring.
There is only one thing Magnus really loves, that is his dignity. He is the best among the Primarchs. He will not make mistakes. He will only appreciate his beast-like brothers fighting for the leftovers of the Emperor's charity from a proud perspective.
I will not make mistakes. But I made the biggest mistakes. All the sufferings suffered by mankind must be recorded on me.
Magnus closed his eyes in despair. His body floating in the warp was getting slower and slower. The huge body that could stand many people began to shrink in circles.
Lin Fan put his hand on the back of Leman Russ's hand, shook his head and told him not to strangle Magnus to death here.
Leman Russ gritted his teeth, took a few deep breaths, then glanced at Magnus's face with a look of disgust and disappointment and said, "Go to your father and confess." Then he let go of his hand, found a place to cover his face and went to grieve alone. Diego also sighed after hearing so many secrets, and stood by Leman Russ with his sword.
Magnus's contraction was finally stopped by Isa, who was protecting Magnus's soul with the power of life. The deep despair was causing Magnus's soul to disintegrate, and it was not an easy task to tie it up.
Lin Fan looked at Magnus and then at Lorgar. It was not a common scene to break the defense of two primarchs at the same time, but he was more fortunate to use this method to divert everyone's attention.
No one should ask questions now, right?
Just as Lin Fan relaxed, a low voice floated into Lin Fan's ears. Corax restrained the voice perfectly, and only he and Lin Fan could hear it.
"So, what did the first subject do?"
Damn it!
Lin Fan cursed inwardly, and turned his head as calmly as possible to look at Corax, who was almost like an ordinary person.
Corax had a blank expression and deep eyes. But it was this kind of person who was difficult to deal with, and you simply could not analyze what he was thinking.
You should learn from the Emperor and tell them: This is a secret, it is not the right time yet, I will tell you later.
Lin Fan immediately rejected this idea, he did not want to cause the Primarch to have a gap with him because of concealment. But on second thought, the explosive news of the destruction of the entire universe did not seem to make the situation much better.
The two looked at each other silently, and just as Lin Fan sighed and was about to tell the whole story, Corax spoke.
He pointed at Magnus and Lorgar and said, "Their warp nature is beginning to get out of control."
"Ah?" Lin Fan blinked a few times, not understanding why Corax changed the subject like this, but Corax really seemed to have no interest in the previous question. The temperament he exuded even made Lin Fan think that the previous conversation was just an auditory hallucination.
A strange sound became louder and louder, which was completely different from Corax's scream. Lorgar, who was crawling on Magnus, turned into a hard stone. Many voices flowed out in the dark cracks. These voices had the same meaning: Submit to me.
And Magnus's situation was much more abstract than Lorgar's. He turned into a mass of amorphous matter, which was difficult to distinguish from the warp. Many mysterious and difficult spells were spit out and disappeared within a few seconds.
"This... Is this their warp essence?" Lin Fan asked, and Corax answered calmly, "It's just a part of it." Then Corax went on to explain, "When they surrendered to the Chaos Gods, the warp essence was cleverly stolen. But that is the essence of the Primarch's existence. If it is completely stripped away, it means the disappearance of the Primarch, so the Chaos Gods left them with a negligible foundation, just like a few drops of water in a bottle cap. It is not worth mentioning." "Then how to solve this?" Corax gave Lin Fan a helpless and tired smile, "It's very simple, just scare them." Then one of the two beads surrounding him was thrown at Lin Fan, and the next second he turned from a thin and pale ordinary person into an endless terror that made the Word Bearers and many demons tremble. With just a chaotic roar, Lorgar and Magnus's out-of-control warp essence retreated like a puppy, and rebuilt their bodies. While Lin Fan was in a daze, Corax also lost control. He cast a familiar scarlet gaze at Lin Fan, and countless black feathers spread out towards them. At this moment, Leman Russ snatched the black bead from Lin Fan's hand and threw it at Corax.
Corax returned to normal, and before Lin Fan and Leman Russ could ask questions, he told them everything he had realized.
"When you abandon all humanity in despair, the nature of the warp will naturally open the door for you. It is a very natural call, and you will never ignore it."
Corax explained while checking the situation of Lorgar and Magnus. The two of them fell into a deep sleep after being intimidated.
"Give up humanity in despair." Leman Russ listened thoughtfully, and then he asked, "I was also desperate during the Great Heresy, but I didn't hear any call. Does this vary from person to person?"
"No, that only proves that you are not desperate enough." Corax looked at Leman Russ seriously, with deep sadness in his eyes, which even made Diego feel the urge to cry.
In order to let Leman Russ and Lin Fan better understand, Corax told in a tone so calm that it could be called the destruction of everything, how he heard the call of the essence of subspace to him.
Corax, Savior, Liberator, Raven Lord, Lord of Shadows. These titles were all given to him by others, and he himself did not care about these false names.
Corax unified the Redeemer and let the local poor workers step on the bloody and filthy ruins of giant companies to sing the greatness of freedom.
Then the Emperor came.
The communication between Corax and the Emperor was plain but not simple. Many Primarchs regarded the golden Emperor as an idol and a majesty that could not be offended.
The Emperor's powerful psychic powers will make his face look different in the eyes of others, but these faces will only appear in the most perfect image in the other person's mind.
In Corax's eyes, the Emperor was just an ordinary man.
