Chapter 61: In fact, Angron was already dead; he is now controlled by the Butcher's Nail.
Sun Qian felt a stinging pain in his eyes and a splitting headache; the mental shock almost made him faint.
However, he also knew he had nothing to complain about, if it weren't for...
The effect would be such that under an attack of that naval gun level, he would probably be reduced to ashes.
The plasma energy beam lasted only a few seconds. After a brief feeling of weightlessness, Sun Qian also fell to the ground. After all, the boulder beneath his feet must have been completely annihilated by the beam attack.
Is it all done?
Sun Qian took a deep breath of the air, which was filled with the smell of ionized ozone, trying to alleviate the pain in his brain and wake up as soon as possible, but just then, whoosh!
Upon hearing the clanging of metal, Sun Qian immediately felt the scorching chains binding him. The heat from the metal chains, like branding irons, was clearly felt even through his power armor.
Then someone pulled the chain hard, and Sun Qian's body was pulled forward uncontrollably.
"I see, this level of psionic shield."
A hoarse, low voice sounded, and Sun Qian opened his eyes to look ahead.
Amidst the billowing white smoke, a terrifying figure appeared before them, holding the other end of a chain in its hand.
"So you're Tzeentch's chosen one, aren't you? You think you can stop my plans, Chaos Gods!"
Although the armor on his body had been washed away by the plasma torrent;
Even if the skin all over the body is carbonized and peeled off under the high temperature;
Even though his face was unrecognizable due to severe burns;
However, Sun Qian could still identify the other party by the still intact butcher's nail on his head.
"What 'adultery'? What 'strange'? Never heard of such a thing. But who are you—no, whose chosen one? Monster!"
Clang!
As soon as Sun Qian finished speaking, the chains binding him snapped instantly.
This is partly because these metal chains have become fragile under extremely high temperatures.
On the other hand, it's because he had already activated the assassin's room that had been prepared long ago.
【Demon Lu Bu】
"Your deception by impersonating Angron ends here! Show me your true colors!"
Sun Qian's voice became more hoarse and resonant as he clenched his right fist and swung it with all his might at Anglong's face.
But when his fist was less than a centimeter away from hitting him, his arm was easily grabbed.
"The level of chaos within you is approaching that of a demon. I think you're closer to being called a monster than I am."
Gala.
The sound of the terracotta arm armor and forearm bones breaking rang out simultaneously, and then Sun Qian's body was lifted into the air, mercilessly thrown away by his opponent.
Despite possessing speed and strength that could easily defeat Lucius, he still fell far short of the heavily injured Angron.
"If things continue like this, you'll turn into a Chaos Egg yourself without me even lifting a finger. Take this opportunity to resist the temptations of the Four Chaos Gods."
After rolling around on the ground a few times, Sun Qian quickly regained his balance and got up, clutching his fractured right arm and staring intently at Anglong.
As you can see, although the Primarch's body is horrificly injured, it is continuing to recover at a visible rate.
The狰狞 face beneath the butcher's nails remained calm and composed.
"Considering you're Liu Bei's only sworn brother, I don't want to kill you like this. Let's go back to the Great Tyrant together first. I guarantee I can help you regain your composure from the control of the Four Chaos Gods. We can talk again after you've calmed down."
"There's no need for that anymore, my 'only' sworn brother?"
Sun Qian slowly stood up. On the system panel in his own field of vision, the number on the [Demon Lu Bu] card was still climbing.
(92/100)
What happens if the threshold of 100 mentioned above is reached?
Sun Qian didn't know, but he knew even more clearly.
I have to stop him here.
at all costs.
"Xuande would never claim I am the only one," my sworn brother. Although I don't know where you got this false information, it seems you are completely untrustworthy.
Hearing Sun Qian's words, Anglong sighed with some regret.
"Just because of these trivial matters, you're unwilling to believe me? That's far too arbitrary."
Even now, Anglong's tone remains gentle and earnest.
"We share the same dream, the same goal. We shouldn't be killing each other here; that would only please the Four Chaos Gods. I can assure you that what I just said was absolutely true."
"Of course I know it's true, which is why I'm certain... you, and the master behind you, are enemies far more dangerous than the Four Chaos Gods!"
That's right, Sun Qian had just secretly used...
It has been verified; the fact is that when he confirmed the plan with Anglon just now,
The result was a great success.
In other words, Anglong was not lying to him; if Sun Qian agreed, he would indeed lead him to carry out such a plan.
Given that this plan could truly sever humanity's connection with the Warp, it's understandable that the Four Chaos Gods would be desperate and join forces to stop it.
If you think that way, you're making a big mistake.
Not lying does not mean it is the truth. Sun Qian understood the principle that "one should not take things out of context" is an excerpt from "one should not take things out of context".
If you think about it carefully, you'll realize that while Angron was righteously "considering" the well-being of human civilization and arguing how his plan could eliminate many threats to human civilization, he seemed to deliberately overlook one point...
No, it should be said that a loophole was deliberately left.
Technology.
Yes, in his vision of the future, humanity could indeed break free from the influence of the four Chaos Gods and avoid the bureaucratic scourge brought about by the corruption of the empire, but he cleverly circumvented one of the most important issues.
Was humanity's last decline truly entirely due to the influence of the four Chaos Gods?
it's not true.
The warp storm of the Age of Strife was merely the final trigger. Before that, humanity had already been severely weakened by the Iron Rebellion, which was actually the core reason for the technological stagnation.
Looking back from this perspective, it seems that even more doubts can be found.
For example, the Starlight is a device whose core purpose is to serve as a lighthouse for Terra to guide directions. If it is stolen, a mobile lighthouse would theoretically have no value in providing location information.
Even so, the Star Torch is still a powerful signal transceiver, and it has acquired conceptual significance due to the emotions invested by humans.
This might become a place that can be utilized by certain subspace entities.
But here's the question: if this is ultimately another of Chaos's tricks, why would the four Chaos gods join forces to stop it, even at the cost of disrupting Horus's rebellion?
The answer is simple: Chaos also has different factions and their own interests, and the enemy that the four Chaos Gods unite to face is often...
There are entities that could challenge their position.
"You are not Angron at all."
For example, he is qualified to become the Dark Lord, the fifth emperor of evil gods.
But don't forget, there are those who are qualified to become the fifth evil god...
It's not just emperors.
"You are the created one," Vastor transformed—no, it should be said...
Combining all the intelligence, Sun Qian has now come to a conclusion that is absurd but the only one that can be explained.
"The Butcher's Nail of Demon Ascension!"
