god.
It seems that most civilizations, especially humanoid civilizations like the Song Empire, like to use the terms "gods" and "devils" to describe their origins and natural disasters, as well as their awe of the world and fear of the unknown when they go through the primitive social stage. ” to explain.
Over time, civilizations that have passed through primitive society and entered the slave and feudal eras will create unique totems that materialize all supernatural powers and form a complete mythological system.
In fact, what was originally a clear sea of souls, due to the awe and fear of intelligent life towards nature, led to the birth of evil gods and demons in different spaces.
But nothing is absolute. Positive emotions will cause the mother planet of a certain civilization to give birth to a god who protects "them" and has a physical body.
Humans cannot escape this bondage, and the same is true for the Elites, Iron-Blooded, Marr and Otieno people.
As for the Song Empire in front of Horus, it was at the most deeply rooted stage of the mythological system. However, the alien space had not yet invaded Universe 05, so the mother planet where the Song Empire was located had not yet given birth to a physical god.
But at this moment, Horus and the others, who were tall and tall, wore gorgeous armor and were able to descend from the sky, were all in line with the gods that the Song Empire believed in and worshiped.
To be honest, Al Cid could apply for the use of Nova IV nuclear bombs to successfully implement the extermination order on the grounds that "the civilization of this planet is deeply affected by bad habits and the worship of gods is deeply rooted."
After all, the Messenger of Judgment cannot tolerate the slightest bit of "heretical" behavior.
Nai Ho's father's primarch scion looked on, and in order to avoid leaving the impression to other legions that the Dark Angels liked to burn and silence everywhere, they had no choice but to spare all living things on the planet.
Of course, the main reason is that the Song Empire, from the residents to the emperor, did have absolute reverence for the gods, unlike some civilizations that were obviously frogs in the well, but were also very conceited and arrogant.
In order to teach knowledge, assist in civilization, and spread the "Truth of Mankind", but also to unify the planet, El Cid left behind two companies of Battle Sisters.
As for the Terminators and Battle Sisters who went to other "tribes" on this planet, they were recalled to the Yandu-class frigates.
The remaining battle sisters will first educate the Song Empire, which treats them as "Heavenly Palace Ladies", as its foundation, and then gradually spread to the entire planet.
Fortunately for this operation, Leon specially mobilized an additional 230 regiments, totaling more than 700,000 battle sisters, from the Temple and the Extreme Sector to the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the Dark Angels to fight against the enemy. Assist the two battalions to consolidate the occupied planets and systems.
Not long after.
Horus took the Yandu class back into the atmosphere of the Ark, and then followed Al Cid to the Thunder transport aircraft and flew towards the main control room located in the center of the Ark.
———————
…
Shortly after.
The main control room built above the surface of the Ark.
There are many "civilian" auxiliary troops and Dark Angels responsible for control and surveillance. At the same time, there is also the most advanced three-dimensional star map system here.
After Magnus completed the psychic scan, the three-dimensional star map suspended above the main control room marked all intelligent races and civilizations in Universe 05...
It's billions.
If one ark alone wanted to conquer all races and civilizations, with the efficiency that Horus and El Cid had before, it would not be possible in five or six thousand years.
However, Horus and El Cid had plenty of time.
Moreover, the strategic goal of Leon's deployment is to control Andromeda, Triangulum, and the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds near the Milky Way. After all, the forces in Universe 05 that can pose some threat to humans in the main universe are mainly concentrated inside and outside the Milky Way.
Observe for a moment.
El Cid originally wanted to lock the route to another civilization's home planet with interstellar navigation capabilities, but Horus had different opinions.
After all, there is "Vormir" in the extragalactic galaxy and planet marked on the star map, and the personal email his father gave him mentioned that the location of the Soul Stone is "Vormir".
However, Warmaster Leon, on the surface, did not bother to find and use the Infinity Stones, so the strategic policy never mentioned the Infinity Stones. However, Horus believed that it was better to keep all the stones as his own to avoid being snatched by other forces.
For this reason, Horus had no choice but to tell El Cid that Vormir had higher value and could be conquered first.
Next, everyone opened the pseudo-wormhole again and instantly arrived at the Vormir star, which was about four thousand light years away from the planet where the Song Empire was located.
only…
"Not long ago, who told me... that Vormir has high conquest value?"
It was just when Al Cid saw through the holographic screen that Vormir was still desolate even though there was an atmospheric environment for humans to breathe.
Therefore, the battalion commander questioned Horus slightly angrily.
Horus, who also looked up at the holographic screen and was stared at by a group of judgment angels, said calmly: "Captain West Germany, although this planet itself has no value, but..."
With that said, Horus took out the space, mind and time gems from the built-in box and continued: "On that planet, there is an infinite gem related to the origin of the Zero-5 universe. We should plunder it."
"The Infinity Stones...well...I have read a public document from the White Archon, and there is indeed a record of this." Al Cid nodded thoughtfully.
Unlike Horus, this battalion commander could not get special treatment from his father. In addition, Leonming was too lazy to pay attention to it, so Al Cid knew very little about the Infinity Stones.
Slow down.
Al Cid then calmed down his anger and agreed with Horus's point of view: "Okay, then I will send the second company to land with you on Vormir. We and the Ark will be temporarily anchored at the edge of the galaxy, waiting for good news..."
"Dip~dip~"
At this moment, a low-intensity and slow-frequency alarm sounded in the main control room, interrupting Al Cid's words.
"Sir." An auxiliary soldier responsible for using the Ark to monitor movements reported: "A ship from an unknown force has been detected and is performing a space jump voyage unique to Universe 05. It is expected to arrive at Vormir in ten minutes. Gravity range.”
"Oh? Are we being followed?" After hearing this report, Al Cid couldn't help but ask.
"Impossible." The Auxiliary Army immediately shook his head and objected, "With all the civilization and technology of Universe 05, it is impossible to track the Ark, but it can be observed with the naked eye.
Therefore, the ship that is about to complete the space jump either collided by mistake, or has an observation station in this galaxy to detect the arrival of the Ark through real-time photography. "
"Forget it." El Cid waved his left hand without bothering, turned to face Horus and said, "If those ships are also interested in the infinite stones, destroy them together, but do it quickly. I'm still waiting to conquer the next world, so I don't have time to waste time with bastards."
Listening to Al Cid's speech as if he was rushing to achieve something, Horus couldn't help but smile, "Don't worry, Commander Cid, I will deal with all threats as soon as possible."
"good."
End the conversation.
Horus left the main control room, boarded the previous Yandu-class frigate, and then started a jump voyage to Vormir.
———————
…
ten minutes later.
Vormir, with only barren land and desolate mountain peaks left on the surface, combined with the very dim red dwarf star that provides light for the entire galaxy, makes Vormir even more "quiet".
But at this time, in the low-Earth orbit of Vormir, it was uncharacteristically "busy".
It turns out that there are Yandu-class frigates in low-Earth orbit that have completed their jump voyage long ago and have been waiting here for a long time, as well as ships from unknown forces that have torn a gap in the universe and completed space jumps.
Just by looking at it, you can see that the ship has a "T" shape in appearance, with a width of about six kilometers and a length of about four kilometers. The upper and lower structures also look like two huge "T"s put together.
After this "T"-shaped ship completed the space jump, it seemed that it did not expect that a Yandu-class ship that was two times smaller in size happened to be blocking its route into the atmosphere of Vormir.
So the "T" shaped ships prepared to attack first.
Unfortunately, Horus, who could sense the thoughts of the creatures inside the opponent's ship, noticed that the opponent came up and prepared to greet him with force. He had no intention of talking, so he took the initiative.
ri~-------!
A dazzling energy-charged blue light suddenly appeared on the bow of the Yandu-class ship.
Hugh~------!
The 30-ton tungsten-iron projectile rushed towards the "T"-shaped ship in an instant at an escape speed of 72, the speed of light.
With such a fast projectile speed, in this Zero-Five Universe alone, there are few or no star civilizations that can intercept it.
Boom~------!
Without any accident, the projectile easily penetrated the "T"-shaped bow, hull and stern of the ship, and then disappeared into the space with a blue beam of light.
Hugh~ Hugh~ Hugh~!
Immediately afterwards, the Yandu class fired more than ten plasma cannons at the opponent, fired from 1200 and 2400 caliber secondary guns, as well as two 1600 caliber high-energy beams that emitted orange-red light.
Boom~!
Boom~!
The "T"-shaped ship, which was bombarded by the main and secondary guns, could not bear it at all. It suffered multiple internal and external explosions, and the damaged hull collapsed into orbit, space and the surface. It fell into the atmosphere completely out of control, causing The friction-heated fire enveloped the whole body.
The war was resolved in less than the blink of an eye, and the Yandu class continued to follow the opponent into the atmosphere, witnessing the opponent's "conventional" fall process of disintegration, forced landing, and explosion.
However, the Yandu-class hovering in mid-air discovered that even though the "T"-shaped ship crashed, there were still tens of thousands of survivors pouring out of the wreckage.
One of the survivors was similar in build and height to the Hulk killed by Tiberos, but his skin was light purple. He also wore a fitted golden armor and held a double-edged sword in his right hand.
What impressed everyone on the Yandu-class bridge the most was the survivor's chin folds, which looked like an oversized version of the "Purple Sweet Potato Essence".
In fact, this survivor is the purple giant Thanos, whose real name is Thanos, who hopes to collect all the Infinity Stones and is also deeply interested in the Ark, a large device that can reshape the universe.
As the auxiliary said before, Thanos was completely unable to pinpoint the whereabouts of the Ark, but after Thanos tortured his adopted daughter to confess, and obtained the Mind Stone and hid it in Vormir, he rushed over non-stop, and happened to have a fight with the Yandu class. Collision.
I really don’t know if Thanos’ luck is good or bad. Vormir has the Infinity Stones that it is obsessed with, and the Ark that makes it extremely interested.
As for Horus, who was standing next to the center console of the bridge, he used the holographic screen to observe near the wreckage of the ship and gathered a group of nearly 50,000 alien troops. He immediately prepared to lead the Yandu-level ground troops to eliminate them. While "relieving boredom", he also "earned some merit" for himself and the second company of the Judgement Messenger.

…
at the same time.
Desert area north of the wreckage.
"Kah...hoo~! Kah..." The crackling sound of the burning ship resounded, and the smell of burning filled the air.
Thanos took the sword and walked out of the wreckage, shook his dizzy head, put on the crooked helmet, and then looked up at the Yandu-class frigate with a complicated expression.
"grown ups…"
At this time, an extremely slender guy with gray skin and sparse hair, who looked like a noseless Squidward, used some kind of magic to heal the wound on his left arm, walked slowly behind Thanos, and said in a deep voice Report:
"Gamora died in the crash landing."
If you listen carefully, you can also find that "Squidward"'s voice is trembling, obviously because of fear.
After hearing that his most cherished and "loved" adopted daughter died, Thanos did not express his anger at his subordinate and adopted son named "Ebony Maw". He said very calmly: "The cause of death?"
"The neck was broken and he died on the spot." Ebony Throat still responded in a deep voice.
""
Thanos took a deep breath with his eyes slightly closed, then opened them again, tightened his right hand holding the knife, looked at the Yandu class that released many transport planes and carrier-based aircraft, and ordered with a gleaming look:
"Inform the army to prepare for battle!"
"Yes! Sir!"
As the order was issued, an army composed of Chitauri, Leviathan, Vanguard (the four-clawed monster in "Avengers 3") and other races quickly gathered to the north of the ship wreckage.
Moreover, there are three generals gathered behind Thanos. One is Ebony Maw, who needs too much introduction, and is good at magic. The other is Black Dwarf, who is strong and three meters tall and carries a hammer-shaped giant axe.
The last one has a voluptuous figure, but the crown structure of the head and the appearance of the face are very inconsistent with human aesthetics. Moreover, there is a strong look in the eyes of Horus who has completed the short-distance teleportation in the distance, and the judgment angel Terminator. Deep hatred.
The last general is Proxima Centauri, and the reason why it is filled with hatred is simple. After all, just now, its husband, General Deathblade, also died in the crash.
now.
The Judgment Angels who were the first to complete the teleportation and reach the front of Thanos' army were the young Primarch Horus and more than a hundred Second Company Terminators.
Looking at the aliens that were gradually gathering, Horus, who knew the name of Thanos from his father, was too lazy to talk nonsense. He raised his right hand and pointed downwards.
"Shua~! Shua~!"
The Terminators carrying micro-missile launchers launched a salvo of artillery fire.
