Chapter 576: The Army of Revenge
Soshiyang's criticism did not change Kayon's expression. He just squeezed out a smile and responded indifferently:
"How righteous and awe-inspiring. , yes, initially we fought back, but more often than not we chose to run away. These days are not proud, but we have not suffered any complete defeat. Sometimes we even ran away from some revengeful or jealous relatives, among which Some people choose to look for us and want to join us in fighting. Our legion continues to grow in the endless night. At the beginning, we recruited only outcasts, wanderers, honorless people, and abandoned people. They came to find us. We are just trying to start over. Some people are trying to wash away their past and find a place under a new banner; some people have lost all their bonds after experiencing countless strife and battles in the Eye of Fear, and want to experience brothers again with us. Friendship; some want to deceive us - they have been purged and fed to the monsters dormant in the dark depths of the Vengeful Spirit."
"Every legion has it?"
"Yes, every legion. Soon, we recruited more than just lone warriors or squads. Warbands or warships began to join us. Abaddon again and again divided us into several troops and acted separately. , spreading word of his return throughout the Eye of Terror, informing those of the besieged Legion, granting amnesty and alliances to those who would join us, most of our newly sworn companions from the Broken Sons of Horus, The primary reason for submission is survival. A dying legion is facing complete annihilation, and three symbols of past glory and power suddenly appear in front of it. The legion war is still going on, and here is Ezekiel Abaddon, and... Farkuskaibo, and even the Vengeful Spirit, in a country surrounded by powerful enemies, such an echo from the bright past is their best chance of survival."
"So, the main force of the Black Legion is still the Sons of Horus in the past?"
"At first, the exiles and idealists from various legions joined us, in front of the Vengeful Spirit. , no one can compete with it. The scattered wandering warriors and the sworn allegiance of the exiles, existing just for survival, are not satisfactory to Ezekel. He wants to go further. He wants a legion that is not as big as that! Regarding the specifications of the legion during the expedition, he has a higher vision. All action principles are based on the rebirth of the legion. He wants to create the first and only long-term war legion."
"Then how many do you have now. People?"
"The specific number is difficult to estimate. The number of troops directly under Abaddon alone exceeds 200,000, not including countless allied and attached warbands."
Even at a little distance. , Kayan could also hear Soshyan's gasp.
"Why are there so many?"
"Because the Eye of Terror is a dark forest. The strong get stronger and the weak get weaker. Just like the tribal conquests in ancient times, we give the enemy a choice: join us, or be defeated. Destroy! Those who swear allegiance to Abaddon can join our fleets or garrison in our fortresses. Some humble warlords are even allowed to join the inner circle of Ezekiel. A few choose to exterminate, and we will never break our promise. Slaughter all these disobedients! This was so effective that Ezekiel Abaddon, First Captain of the Sixteenth Legion, once a hero of the Empire and now a hero of the Sons of Horus, gave up in unprecedented numbers. We have adopted the colorless painting of our unknown war gang, and have once again gathered under the same banner. The first is to survive, and we are sure that there will be more goals in the future, among which the most convincing The most powerful thing that drives everyone is revenge, regardless of the cost. "
"Has the empire never interfered with you in the past? Just let you expand like this?"
"The Eye of Terror is not a public toilet. You can come and leave as you please. But the Empire once launched a huge challenge to us, and that challenger almost killed Abaddon."
" Who? ”
"The former captain of the Imperial Fists, later became the first grand marshal of the Black Templars, the Black Knight, the Swordbinder, Sigismund. He is very powerful, the most powerful warrior I have ever seen in my life. It's a pity that He has not resisted the invasion of time, otherwise you might still be seeing Thousand Sons Kayon now."
After saying that, the cell fell into silence.
About two minutes later, Soshyan spoke again:
"What is the Thirteenth Black Expedition you are talking about?"
Ka Yang let out a cold laugh and raised his head slightly, as if he wanted to let the other party see his face and the proud expression on his face.
"You know nothing about everything that happened in the Eye of Terror. The Black Legion has already suppressed the nine legions with absolute superiority and ended the legion civil war. Even the originals have succumbed to Abaddon one after another. Some of them are Voluntarily, some had no choice, and one was forced to kneel before Abaddon. But in the end everyone surrendered: Lorgar, Perturabo, Fulgrim, Angron, my Father Magnus...even Mortarion, although his plague is closer to killing us than others."
Hearing these terrible names, Soshyan couldn't help but feel terrified. What Khayon said is true. Abaddon has subdued and even controlled all the fallen Primarchs, so his power is too terrifying——
On the Empire side, the only Primarch known so far is in Ma The sleeping Robert Guilliman of Kurrag. "There are more."
"And. Do you know that the Emperor's light is disappearing in the galaxy? In recent decades, how many fleets have swayed in the Star Torch Lost in the flames? Thousands? Tens of thousands? How many worlds roared in rebellion, or screamed in the echoes of the stars? How many worlds disappeared into silence behind the curtain of warp, only to return empty? There are still traces of demons ravaging and trampling here. Do you know what happened in the Taiping Star Territory? A quarter of the galaxy has been silenced. Do you know the reason behind it? Do you know that countless empires are fighting in the shadow of silence? Who to fight with? ”
Of course Soshyan knew about the current situation of the empire, but it was not comprehensive. After all, the Milky Way was too big and the transmission of news was very difficult.
After thinking for a while, Soshiyang frowned.
"But why? Why do you know everything about your enemy and say everything?"
"Ah, this question is of a certain level. This question is actually not important to you, but I can provide a reason. Now is the final moment. Facing the crushing Crimson Road, none of you will be destined to survive. The empire has been slowly declining from the beginning of this long war. , and now is the final stage. I will reveal all this because for the empire, everything is irreversible."
"I can inform Terra in advance so that they can prepare early."< br>
"Oh? Do you think they will believe it? Or will you gather millions of troops just because of a vague warning? And when Abaddon will launch an attack, even I don't know."
< br>Soshiyang looked at Kayon's unruly face and dull eyes, and suddenly chuckled.
Then laughter, and finally laughter.
"Oh? Is there anything worthy of you being so happy?"
"Iskandar Kayan, I admit that your words gave me a huge sense of threat, and I also I believe what you said is the truth.”
"Then why are you laughing."
"Because this is a huge threat to the empire, and it is also an opportunity for us to prove ourselves. It will make our power more legitimate!"
"Oh?"
"Listen carefully, Kayan."
Soshiyang stared at the other person, staring into the other person's eyes.
"I, Soshyan Alexei, will definitely crush Abaddon's dream of thousands of years! I will be a wall that you can never overcome!"
