As the vanguard against demons.

After the Grey Knights received the order from the Imperial Regent, they immediately launched an airborne attack.

Mangago, the Grand Master of the Grey Knights, who holds the same status as Vodace and Clovis, is the leader of this vanguard.

As a great mentor, Mangago's strength should not be underestimated.

His record is also very impressive.

He has led many battles against demons of the Warp.

He fought against the great demon under the command of the evil god Tzeentch - Turoth, the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord, and successfully exiled him.

Assisted the Wolves in their fight against Magnus in the Fenris System.

He is a very outstanding hero of the empire.

After the Great Rift incident, he has been running around, suppressing rebellions everywhere.

Now, he will add a great touch to his achievements.

They will slay demons for the Imperial Regent and pave a way to reach their destination.

As the combat order was issued, the flash of teleportation instantly transported three hundred prepared Grey Knights to the surface.

A large number of troops followed closely and appeared behind them.

In order to fight in the Eye of Terror, Guilliman comprehensively upgraded the fleet in his hands, equipping it with the most advanced weapons and equipment of the Empire.

They strengthened their mental defenses and developed various tactics to fight against demons.

Otherwise, mortals would be at a huge disadvantage in fighting in the Eye of Terror.

It is easy to be corrupted and become an enemy soldier.

The monsters wandering in the wilderness, jungles, and city ruins were momentarily startled by the sudden appearance of the Imperial forces.

Then, he reacted quickly.

They roared and pounced on the imperial army.

And the empire's artillery fire fell mercilessly on them.

Grand Master Mangago held a war hammer and smashed the head of a demon while roaring.

He led the Grey Knights like spearheads into the waves of monsters, tearing a gap for the Imperial firepower.

The rumbling artillery fire continued to bombard the monsters and demons.

In the sky, accompanied by flashes of light, spears of light fell like raindrops, instantly clearing out all enemies within a radius of hundreds of meters.

Fighter planes roared past, sweeping and bombing the winged monsters.

With the support of almost unlimited firepower, the vanguard troops led by Grand Master Mangago continued fighting for more than thirty hours.

The Imperial fleet unleashed countless shells and lasers.

A sector of the planet that is horrific and full of hostility has been cleared for control by Imperial forces.

Wait until the ground troops reach their feet.

Grand Master Mangago led his troops towards their destination under the guidance of the Eldar prophet Natas.

The entire planet has been corrupted and is filled with malicious plants and animals.

The abnormal phenomena on the Demon Planet are very serious.

A storm of twisted ether engulfed the entire planet.

Night and day are flashing quickly.

Often, there will be several days and nights in an hour.

During the day, you can see monsters coming from all directions.

Unless you have the mental strength of a Space Marine, don't even try to imagine what they are like.

The soldiers all wore protective helmets with built-in scanning devices, allowing them to lock onto those abominable creatures without even looking.

Their appearance is also a poison that can poison the minds of normal people.

It is correct not to see their true appearance.

It was even more terrifying when night fell, and all kinds of horrible cries were heard around the imperial troops.

There are also wandering evil spirits.

The resentment left by those dead Eldar still lingers on this planet.

They howled and wanted to kill any creature that invaded their territory.

Trained priests prevented these invisible creatures from poisoning the human forces.

They chanted the Psalms of the Emperor and used the power of the Holy Emperor to banish the evil spirits.

With the coordination of multiple arms, the Imperial forces have been advancing on the ground in search of the lost Eldar city.

Due to some special reasons, the entire city can no longer be locked.

Only through ground combat can the Eldar city that Guilliman is looking for be found.

Every step forward requires a hard fight to achieve.

The Imperial forces had to chop down the trees and kill every living creature in sight to ensure safety.

... ...

The arrival of humans is like pouring ice into boiling lava.

It caused violent vibrations on this demon planet.

Countless monsters came from all directions and joined the battle to encircle and suppress humans.

The Warp is torn open everywhere by the foul magic of wandering wizards and demons.

Those cracks emit an abominable, evil light, guiding lost creatures deep in the Warp to descend into this physical world in the Eye of Terror.

Grand Master Mangago could feel the extreme darkness and evil from those cracks.

The existence of those cracks is extremely terrifying and horrible, leading to the depths of the subspace.

Only the most terrifying and evil beings are active in the depths of the subspace.

These cracks made it difficult for the Imperial forces to advance.

Monsters will crawl out of some cracks, and without exception, those monsters exude a disgusting evil aura.

They are a collection of pure malevolence, the embodiment of the destructive nature of Chaos.

Cunning and insidious are the skills they rely on for survival.

It will attack at the right time and devour those unlucky ones who fail to escape from the vicinity of the rift in time.

Some cracks would extend huge tentacles that were slimy and smelly, over a thousand meters long, huge, and as heavy as mountains.

It was hit so hard that even heavy vehicles were shattered into pieces.

There are also some terrifying beings at the other end who want to stretch the crack open, making it bigger so that they can pass through.

Some soldiers even saw some terrifying creatures over ten thousand feet tall howling on the other side of the rift, dominated by endless hunger and thirst, trying to enter the space where the Eye of Terror was located.

The Warp is so vast that even the gods don't know how big it is.

It takes countless hours to travel from one area to another.

Unless there is a clear path or accurate coordinates.

Those terrifying beings want to enter the Eye of Terror through the passages opened by wizards and demons.

Wanting to get out of where they came from and into a completely new place.

Unfortunately, the cracks are too small compared to them.

Those horrific creatures could only squeeze some of their limbs through the cracks to vent their anger.

The tentacles are like mountains, and the red-haired giant hands are huge enough to crush heavy tanks.

It was all so horrible.

The existence of the subspace is so terrifying.

Even if it is just the tip of the iceberg, it is enough to make mortals lose their minds and succumb to chaos.

However, under Guilliman's leadership, the will of the Imperium is unstoppable.

The vanguard troops paid heavy sacrifices and experienced unimaginable bloody battles.

They saw the ruins of a city standing on the horizon.

It was the city of knowledge they were looking for.

There lies the Eldar's Webway knowledge.

Grand Master Mangago, holding a war hammer, beat a demon wrapped in thorns and magic fire, breaking its bones and tendons, and then crushed the opponent's head with one foot.

He looked at the Eldar city in the distance and smiled.

But he also understood that the previous battle was very difficult, but that was just an appetizer.

The real challenge lies in the lost city no longer held by its Eldar allies.

Eldar cities are generally huge and well-equipped.

Before the fall of the Eldar Empire, these huge cities were often inhabited by a large number of Eldar.

This also caused these large cities to become even more terrifying when the Eldar fell.

The Eldar whose souls have been eaten and whose flesh has been corrupted are still wandering in those cities.

They have become slaves to Chaos, twisted by terrible evil forces.

Hungry, waiting to devour everything.

What humans have done on this planet has touched the reverse scales of some terrible beings.

The storm gathered dark clouds and made the earth dark.

Hot, wet blood rain fell from oppressive clouds, stinking of brass.

Scarlet rain covered the shattered city, and the remaining wraith buildings were bathed in blood.

Those fungal mats that look like human blood vessels are breathing rhythmically.

In the ruins, strange creatures ran out of abandoned buildings.

Emerging in the lake of blood that rose in the streets.

Their bodies staggered as they ran desperately towards the human troops.

Some crawl around on piles of boneless limbs.

Some of them stretched out their curled wings while wailing.

Some were jumping up and down and laughing hysterically.

The monsters formed a demonic tide, overwhelming and pouring in.

Among them, there was an extremely huge monster.

It is made up of countless corpses, like a huge mountain of flesh.

Those twisted tentacles danced in the air.

The countless faces that made up the mountain of flesh were screaming, and countless arms were waving on their huge bodies.

Madness, confusion.

Any mortal who saw the monster's true appearance would probably be driven mad with fear.

Fragile reason will collapse before the all-blasphemous truth.

"For the Emperor." Grand Master Mangago prayed to the Emperor and the Regent in his heart, then raised the weapon in his hand and rushed towards the enemy.

A squad of Grey Knights activated their thrusters, leaped up suddenly, and then crashed into the demon wave like a meteor.

The high-pressure incineration flamethrowers they were equipped with spewed out high-temperature blue flames.

The monsters howled in the flames.

The other Grey Knights followed behind Grand Master Mangago with firm and heavy steps, all of them wearing the latest power armor.

The sound of the servo system operating is like light and melodious music.

The burning monster was shattered by their explosive shells.

Six Dreadnoughts also joined the Grey Knights' flanks to protect them from being cut off from the rest of the Imperial forces by the enemy.

Every shot from the heavy cannon exploded in the demonic tide, and large numbers of demons were blown into the air and shattered in the dazzling flames.

The empire's firepower units were also firing crazily. Missiles, artillery shells, light spears, etc. were all thrown out to clean the ground. The entire battlefield was shrouded in the strong light caused by the explosion.

The earth is shaking because of human power. Mountains are collapsing, rivers are breaking, rocks are melting, and countless gullies and charred marks are appearing on the corrupted ground.

Countless demons and monsters died under the violent attack.

But the huge monster mixed in the magic tide and gradually approached the humans who were trying to capture the city.

The Grey Knight's psychic shells landed on the monster but were blocked by the black smoke and were unable to harm the opponent at all.

The same was true of the artillery of the Imperial forces.

Enough firepower to destroy a city was poured upon the enemy, but it failed to break their defenses.

There is some evil force protecting the monster, making human attacks ineffective.

"What a tough guy it is." Grand Master Mangago watched the monster approaching, clenched the war hammer in his hand, and prepared to face the powerful enemy.

Just when he thought a tough battle was about to begin.

Intense flashes of light appeared in the demonic tide, so bright that they overwhelmed the strong light caused by the explosions.

Grand Master Mangago's helmet automatically switches to dark mode to prevent eyes from being burned by strong light.

In the light, the Extreme Warriors wearing azure power armor walked out.

The Imperial Regent, the great Lord of Ultramar, the savior of mankind - Guilliman was surrounded by them.

His whole body was covered with light, so bright and intense, like a star.

Grand Master Mangago looked at the scene in amazement. He had never actually seen Guilliman take action.

I only knew about the power of the Imperial Regent from some casual conversation.

Since the resurgence, the Imperial Regent has never been defeated.

Any enemy who attempts to challenge him will only seek humiliation.

Whenever the battle scenes of the Imperial Regent were discussed, those who claimed to have seen them with their own eyes would speak in extremely exaggerated terms of praise.

Punching demons, kicking primarchs, descending on the battlefield like the sun.

These words once made Grand Master Mangago suspect that these guys were all lying and were just making up the myth of Guilliman.

But when he saw it with his own eyes, he realized that those guys' praise did not reflect one ten-thousandth of the heroic spirit of the Imperial Regent.

Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you understand the terrible power of the Imperial Regent.

Under that light, countless demons and monsters were screaming.

No matter how powerful they are in the mortal world, they are just ants in front of the Imperial Regent Guilliman.

Screaming, collapsing, crying, and running away.

It was as if dawn pierced through the darkness, and wherever the light reached, the demons screamed and retreated.

The huge monster was roaring in great pain.

The Emperor's sword ignited in Guilliman's hand, and with every blow, the raging fire burst into a stronger brilliance.

Countless demons and monsters turned into pillars of fire in an instant.

Twisted flesh peeled off their bodies, and the flames were like a cancer that would not be extinguished until they were reduced to ash.

Bright white flames flowed from the blade, purifying all demons and melting every monster.

The Honor Guards, led by Sicarius, roared.

Using their flesh to build a wall of steel for their master.

With the swinging of sharp blades and the roar of explosive bombs, the lifeless were exiled and harvested one after another.

The blade tore through the ugly flesh, and the corrosive blood splashed like rain.

It is no longer the etheric fog and demonic storms that block the view.

But the flying ashes.

The air soaked in flying ashes, with the swirling and dancing cold light as a backdrop, witnessed the arrival of a great king.

In this dark world, the hateful entities and demons gathered together faced an irresistible enemy for the first time.

The great demon made up of countless corpses roared.

Its power is extremely strong and countless times more terrifying than the demon king imagined by humans.

Grand Master Mangagor watched as the monster ran towards Guilliman's location.

The other party was like a mountain, full of oppression, and the earth shook with every step.

It just used its body to crash directly into Guilliman.

Grand Master Mangyago's heart could not help but rise, and he ordered the Grey Knights to speed up and advance with all their might in the direction of Guilliman to protect the Imperial Regent.

Even if the Grey Knights here join forces to attack the great demon, the chances of victory are very slim.

Even if the Imperial Regent and his Honor Guard were able to win, they would probably suffer heavy casualties.

Those demons and monsters love to take advantage of people's misfortunes. Grand Master Mangagor will never allow Guilliman, the Regent of the Empire, to fall into danger.

But when Grand Master Mangago beat down several demons, the scene he saw was something he would never forget.

Guilliman's whole body was glowing, and his eyes were burning with fire.

His face was as noble as that of a god.

Accompanied by a roar.

Guilliman swung his sword fiercely, and a fire dragon flew out of the blade, turning the monsters and demons along the way into ashes.

Countless demons and monsters were shattered in an instant, with streaks of fire appearing on their bodies. They turned into flying ashes in the storm and disappeared without a trace.

The huge demon's countless eyes revealed fear, and its mouths were screaming in terror.

The black fog spread, covering the huge body of the demon.

But the flames still covered it.

Like an oversized torch being lit, the whole world saw a ball of flame rising.

The fuel for the torch is that terrible demon.

It was burning fiercely and the shrill cries were endless.

The Grey Knights walking in the front were all stunned, as was the Grand Master who led them.

There was shock and disbelief in their eyes.

With just one strike, he killed the demon that they thought they could only defeat miserably.

What a terrifying power this is.

"Is such an existence really not a God?" An absurd thought arose in the mind of Grand Master Mangago.

Thinking of how Guilliman publicly refuted those who regarded him as a god several times, and asked the Empire to regard him as a normal mortal who could make mistakes, rather than over-mythologize him.

But how to explain the scene where the big demon was killed with one sword?

There is no way for a mortal to kill a terrifying demon with just one blow.

Grand Master Mangago found it difficult to calm down, as he saw with his own eyes a god walking in the name of a mortal.

The great demon made up of countless corpses burned up in the golden flames and turned into ashes.

Guilliman pointed the Emperor's sword at the ruined city and said calmly, "Take it for me, warriors of the Empire."

These words echoed across the communication channel, reaching every Imperial force.

"For Guilliman," an officer shouted, raising his weapon.

Others followed suit and shouted.

Even Grand Master Mangago and many Grey Knights started shouting subconsciously.

The same voice is everywhere in the channel.

"For Guilliman."

"For Guilliman."

"For Guilliman."

Every soldier and every officer felt their blood boiling.

Some were even so excited that they shed tears.

Even if they were asked to die for the regent of the empire at this moment, they would do it without hesitation.

... ... ... ... ... ..

... ... ... ... ... ... ...

"The time has come. Guilliman has distanced himself from his fleet and blockaded the entire planet, cutting off his escape route."

Ahriman, a Chaos Sorcerer, controls the situation on the battlefield through demons.

They had long ago used the power of the gods to gain insight into Guilliman's destination.

Now, everything is ready.

After receiving Ahriman's message, Perturabo, who was sitting on the Iron Blood, smiled.

"Then let's get started. I can't wait to see that idiot Guilliman's shocked expression."

"He will cry for our arrival." Fulgrim, crawling like a snake, stretched out his slender tongue and licked the silver-white blade that was shining with cold light. "This time, he is not as lucky as he was ten thousand years ago."
