Chagatai Khan.
He was one of the survivors of the Seven Massacres of Istvan, and the Primarch who was defeated and captured by Horus himself.
However, the Jaghatai, who was supposed to be wearing the armor of the original body, was tall and mighty, and although not as handsome as Sanguinius and Fulgrim, but with strong features and strong perseverance, could be placed next to Constantine and the Guards. The scene before the brothers was completely opposite.
At this time, the "Khan" was pierced by the traitors with rusty metal hooks through his skin, collarbone, shoulder bones and arms. The flesh and blood were pulled out, and he hung in the center of the cell dripping with blood.
The legs and lower body have long since disappeared, but the wounds and gashes have not healed to this day.
Because the traitors placed obese, huge, and unknown living maggots that were magnified more than ten times in the wounds and gaps, constantly eating Jaghatai's body, preventing healing, and even giving birth to more in the body. Eggs, if you look closely, you can also find tiny white worms that are extremely unfriendly to people with trypophobia.
The most horrifying thing is that Chagatai's face was peeled off alive, his nose and ears were cut off, and his eyes were pulled out with brute force. They were placed in a transparent petri dish not far away. Inside, only the mouth is left...
It is the mouth part that is missing the tongue.
Constantine and the Konoe brothers who witnessed everything would feel a little sad even if they were not humans from Universe 03 or Astartes under the command of the White Scar.
The traitor wanted to use all torture methods to physically and psychologically break down the defense line of reason and loyalty, but Chagatai Khan would rather die than surrender.
Although Jaghatai was also dissatisfied with the emperor's attitude, deeds and some behaviors, he would never choose to "negotiate" through betrayal or parricide, because in his eyes, no matter how unbearable or evil the empire and the emperor were, It's not even one ten thousandth as good as the Evil God Chaos.
He had been tortured, tormented, and abused by the Sons of Horus for more than two hundred and sixty years. If it were not for the extremely strong self-healing ability of the original body, Jaghatai Khan, he would have died long ago.
"Uh...uh uh..."
At this time, Chaghatai, who seemed to have noticed that a "new person" had broken into the cell, lost his vision and hearing, opened his mouth and mumbled something.
And Constantine, whose hearing was intact, could hear clearly, "Go...go to the bloody traitor...".
After hearing the words clearly, the commander of the Guards, who had maintained a cold and ruthless face for a long time, actually showed a trace of respect, and then no longer concealed his pure spiritual energy, and used the little skills Sui Bian taught him to try to appease Chagatai Khan, so that The primarch gradually let his guard down.
Immediately afterwards, Constantine attached the Cassius gun to his back, stepped forward in person, and helped Chagatai to release the metal hook from the restraints of the metal hook with three brothers.
Then, Constantine and the accompanying brothers of the guards protected the weak Chagatai from leaving the cell, returned to the square, and then used the psychic teleportation also taught by Sui Bian to leave here.
The Imperial Palace of Terra is full of chaotic psychic energy and teleportation jamming devices. If the Terminators of the main universe carry out regular teleportation, there will be no danger to their lives. The main thing is that it will delay time.
So with a burst of spiritual light mixed with black and gold, they disappeared from the square in the blink of an eye. Constantine and the others teleported to the inner earth world of the Invincible, and then quickly rushed to the internal experiments of the research building. room, and carefully transferred Chagatai Khan to the operating table.
The plague doctor who came to inquire and led a group of researchers into the laboratory, his eyes changed the moment he saw Chagatai, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Oh my God... This child's resilience is far beyond imagination, tsk tsk." , I will do my best to ease your pain, child, don’t be afraid.”
As he spoke, the plague doctor approached the operating table and put his hands into his small black bag to fumble around.
When he reached the operating table completely and stood still, the plague doctor finally took out a syringe filled with green transparent liquid.
After squeezing out the excess air, the plague doctor freed up his left hand, took out his own specially made disinfectant towel from the small bag, and wiped away the blood and stains on Chagatai's neck.
Being prepared, the plague doctor pierced the skin of his neck with a needle without hesitation and injected all the green transparent liquid into Chagatai's body.
By the time the plague doctor pulled out the needle, Chagatai had already fallen into a deep sleep. For the first time in more than 260 years, he was able to relax and take a good rest.
It was also rare that the plague doctor did not take the opportunity to perform the operation. Instead, he ordered Constantine and the researchers who came with him: "Transfer this poor and respectable child to the observation ward first and let him sleep well. Anyway, I already have it." There is enough experimental data and information, so there is no rush.”
"Good doctor."
Constantine responded briefly, and then cooperated with the researchers and sent Jaghatai to the observation ward with his fellow guards.
When the Plague Doctor packed up his small bag and just walked out of the laboratory, he came to the lobby on the first floor of the research building, ready to debate whether to go to the detention area below the building to capture a few Chaos Astartes for some drug experiments, or to go to the office. While sorting out the notes, I happened to see Sui Bian, who was wearing black gold armor, and Queen Bai, who was dressed as a secretary, walking into the lobby on the first floor.
Before the plague doctor could say anything proactively with "Oh~! Mr. Sui!", Sui Bian asked, "How is it?"
"The condition can't be said to be very good, but it's not too bad." Doctor Plague adjusted the strap of the small bag and said, "Relying on my medical methods and the company's medical equipment, it should be no problem to recover as before."
"Well, that's good." Sui Bian nodded lightly.
At this time, Empress Bai's eyes flashed with blue light, as if she had obtained some vital information, and she immediately walked to Sui Bian's ear and reported in a low voice:
"Chairman, Primarch John and the Honor Guard of Sparta arrived at the core area of the Royal Palace of Terra and sensed extremely strong psychic reactions. They are about to meet Horus Luperkar, the new emperor of the suspected New Human Empire. Let’s start a confrontation.”
"Oh? It seems that John's luck is always better than that of his brothers." Sui Bian chuckled, and then focused on John, but while not planning to interfere too much, he did not forget to give instructions. Queen Bai said: "Share John's position with Rogge, Angron and the others."
"Okay." Queen Bai promised.

…
now.
Near the Himalayas, on the plateau side of the core area of the Terra Palace, there is a palace that is grand in scale, splendid, gorgeous and exquisite, far exceeding the capital of the Phoenix Sector.
As for the spacious corridor heading to the innermost part of the palace, there was John with his helmet unfolded and the Spear of Fear clenched in his right hand, as well as more than a hundred warrior guards who had arrived here with their original body.
If you turn your head slightly, you can see the beautiful scenery of the plateau and many buildings outside the palace through the hollow walls and neat stone pillars on the left.
But John and the Warriors were in no mood to appreciate it, let alone relax their vigilance, because they sensed that the end of the corridor seemed to be the "target" of the Terra battle.
He walked forward in silence for a moment.
John suddenly stopped where he was, looking at the end of the corridor with a slight frown.
?
The warriors who didn't know why the original body stopped were slightly confused, so the warrior whose helmet was decorated with an olive branch and who killed Lucius, the chosen god of Slaanesh, asked: "Sir? What's going on? ?"
John remained silent for a few seconds, then turned sideways and looked around at the warriors gathered around him, and said in a deep voice: "You stay here, wait, and meet the following friendly troops."
"Sir..." The original body wanted to leave them behind and prepare to face the "target" alone, which was Horus Luperkar. That warrior, or rather all the warriors, were hesitant.
However, the Warrior Guards understand that the battle between the Primarch and the Primarch is simply not something they, the legion champions and elite veterans, can participate in.
Not to mention that the original body waiting at the end of the corridor is most likely Horus, who has been blessed and protected by the entire alien space and all evil gods.
If they act rashly, they may die at the hands of Horus before their father can provide him with protection.
In the end, the warrior nodded on behalf of the brothers: "Yes, sir."
"Yeah." John nodded slightly and continued walking to the end of the corridor.
After a while, John's tall body became smaller and smaller in the eyes of the warriors as he moved away, until it turned into a black dot.
Immediately afterwards, when John passed the gate at the end of the corridor and entered the room or hall at the other end of the gate, the Warrior Guards completely lost track of their original body.
Unseen, the Warrior Guards had to rely on psychic perception to confirm and deduce the status of their original body.
Unfortunately, the room or hall on the other side of the gate has a shielding function, and their psychic powers alone cannot spy at all.
———————
…
At the other end of the gate.
This is not a room, but a spacious hall with walls, wall tiles and even load-bearing columns plated with gold, with soft and bright lights on the top, and an area as large as six football fields.
The most eye-catching one is the "Golden Throne" located at the end opposite the gate, which can absorb spiritual energy to expand and release.
Sitting on the throne, the "living corpse" Emperor is like an oversized mummy, forced to endure the oppression of the traitors and the New Human Empire.
“…”
Seeing that the Emperor who did not love the individual but loved the whole, and who worked hard to survive for mankind in the galaxy and find a path to strength and glory, ended up like this. Even John, who didn't like to reveal his emotions, showed a look of intolerance. demeanor.
For a moment, the image of his father sitting on the golden throne gradually appeared in John's mind.
However, John's mind was not affected by this, and he put this unrealistic picture out of his mind.
"Boom, boom."
At the same time, he also heard the sound of magnetic boots stepping on the floor tiles diagonally to the right.
Turn around and look.
Then he discovered that he was wearing pure white armor, holding a special power hammer in his right hand, and his left glove had power claws with light red lightning. He wore a wolf skin as a cloak, had a bald head, and was half a meter shorter than John. ---
Horus Luperkar.
"Brother, Huan..." Horus, whose eyes were covered with red bloodshot eyes, was about to say something.
"Rou~!!" was interrupted by the spear of fear thrown by John.
With a sound of "Buzz~!!", the light red psychic stance collided fiercely with the spear tip that shone strangely and had a bloody sheen.
The invincible Spear of Terror actually failed to pierce Horus' psychic barrier with one blow.
"It's rude to interrupt someone else's words." Horus waved his left hand lightly, flicking away the Spear of Terror that was stuck in the air, causing the God of War weapon to pierce diagonally into the floor tiles and stop in front of the Golden Throne.
Glancing at his "living corpse" father, the new human emperor then looked directly at John, who was also standing in the center of the hall, his facial expression and psychic energy fluctuations were as calm and steady as ever, and said: "Brother, my father is a An extremely hypocritical and extremely selfish guy, he calls himself the Emperor of Humanity...
Ah! Without humanity, what is a human being? ! Those who only want to complete the great cause in their hearts and want to sacrifice their heirs are not worthy of being human! "
Horus said, its expression became more and more angry and crazy, as if it had endless hatred for the human emperor behind it.
At this point, Horus noticed that he was a little out of control, so he calmed down his slightly out-of-control emotions and continued to say to John: "Brother, everything I do is for human beings. Only by cooperating with other spaces can I achieve success." In the future, the only outcome of confrontation is death, extinction, and nothingness. Do you understand?
So brothers, as long as we fight side by side and obtain the blessings and attention of the gods, no alien or any universe will be able to stop us humans! We will be like overlords! "
"..."
Listening to Horus's cathartic words, he extended an olive branch to him, but John remained silent. He slowly walked towards the Spear of Terror embedded in the floor tiles, stretched out his right hand to hold the spear shaft firmly, and held it steady without much force. Pulled it out.
John, who had regained the Spear of Fear, responded with firm eyes from beginning to end: "You are talking about your father, but my father is not. If you want to fight, we will fight. It is useless to talk more."
After saying that, John rushed towards Horus.
"Boom!!" A shallow pit was created on the tiles and floor under his feet by John's sprinting movements.
"Qiang!!!"
The thrust of the Dread Spear was counteracted by the kinetic warhammer known as the Worldbreaker, and a metallic cry that could permanently deafen the Astartes echoed throughout the hall.
"call!!!"
The collision between the spear tip and the hammer edge also produced a shadowless shock wave that even distorted the real space and swept around.
Horus, who easily blocked the stabbing attack, could not help but look regretful when facing John at close range. He shook his head and said, "Hey, it's a pity. Although you are not the same person as my brothers, you are the one I admire most. My favorite brother, your legion is both offensive and defensive. If we can fight side by side, I will give you the position of Warmaster."
During the competition between the two sides, John, who was slightly at a disadvantage, pushed away the Worldbreaker, and then made a swinging movement to force back Horus who was suppressing him. His eyes showed undisguised disdain and he responded:
"Warmaster? Not interested. I'm more interested in your head."
"Hahaha! This is why I admire you! Come! The head on my neck is right here!" Horus laughed loudly.
"Heh." John snorted, regardless of the strength and spiritual power gap between the two sides, fearlessly waving the Spear of Fear and moving forward.
"boom!!"
"Bang!!"
Next, the shock caused by the duel between the two giants made everyone involved in the battle for the palace tremble.
