"Traitor, your thoughts are as stupid as your brain. What gave you the confidence to dare to appear before me?" Guilliman said to the leader of the rebellion. "You could have rolled back to that disgusting warp before I arrived, but you didn't. This makes me admire your courage. I also suspect that your brain has been completely damaged over the long years. After all, there are not many good parts of your body."

"You are arrogant, Primarch." Gurlo's face darkened.

It had never thought a Primarch could say such a thing.

"If you are facing a bunch of trash, you will also be arrogant involuntarily. If your enemies can't change their miserable fate no matter what they do, then why shouldn't you be arrogant?"

Guilliman's tone was full of mockery, and his voice echoed throughout the battlefield, making the Imperial warriors cheer.

"You... you will pay the price, Primarch." Gurlo's pale green face turned dark green, and it was obvious that he was angered by Guilliman's words.

Anyone who hears someone calling him or her trash will get furious, even if the other person is a Primitive.

"I also hope you have the ability to make me pay the price, but unfortunately you don't."

As soon as Guilliman's words came out, Gurlo was speechless.

I have never seen such an arrogant Primarch.

Guilliman didn't care about Gurlo's rage. The soul in his body was not just the Thirteenth Son of the Emperor in the past. It was a fusion of the knowledge and memories of another soul. The combination of the two formed a brand new Guilliman, with a brand new personality.

When it comes to mocking people, even the Chaos God is no match for him.

"May you be as strong as you are good at talking, Primarch."

Guluo looked at his deputy, and the other's bloated head with a helmet nodded. Everything was ready.

"You will face the power of the Warp and tremble at it." Gurlo roared.

The earth shook inexplicably.

There was a sound of breaking glass in the air.

Unholy rays of light emerged from the cracks, carrying the most extreme malice. Everyone could feel that the will that extremely hated everything in the real world was trying to break through the limitations and come to the real world.

Kacha, Kacha.

The real space shattered like broken glass, and the light from the highest sky poured out like a flood that broke through a dam.

The Imperial psykers nearby could feel their psychic powers increased significantly, and as the veil between the Warp and reality was broken, they also benefited.

Of course, this benefit is also fraught with danger.

Once a psychic is unable to maintain his sanity, he will be degraded into those abominable monsters under the erosion of the warp.

A fat head, rotten and bloated, covered with pus and small tentacles, and with a pair of huge horns, squeezed out of the warp.

The demon was nearly ten meters tall, looked very fat, and held a rusty big knife in his hand.

The pustules all over his obese body were oozing saliva, and plague flies and Nurglings were constantly emerging from his body.

After the demon crawled out, it let out a huge roar, and Guilliman could see the densely packed, crawling maggots inside its open mouth.

What a disgusting demon.

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

demon.

The eternal enemy of the Imperium, the eternal enemy of Mankind, a creature of the Warp formed from the unnatural energies of the Warp and given sentience by the Dark Gods.

Demons cannot be killed. Their bodies moving around in the real universe are just projections, and their true selves are in the subspace.

Once killed, they return to the Warp to await resurrection.

Only a small number of weapons, or some terrible psychics, can completely destroy the demons.

The Emperor's Sword in Guilliman's hand naturally also has the ability to kill demons.

When he was just resurrected, he used this sword to kill a traitor who was admired by Khorne and promoted to a demon.

The demonic elements in the Warp are complex, and most of them are shaped by Chaos Gods.

Others are formed by the special worship or certain special emotions of each race.

Such as The Curse of Mankind, the only being in the Warp that can kill the Emperor, and Daemon: Imperium's End.

The End of the Empire dealt a heavy blow to the Emperor in the Webway War, accelerating the defeat of Humanity in the Webway War.

The battle that ended the Empire was the most unfavorable of the countless battles the Emperor had experienced in his long life.

The Emperor was completely crushed by the End of Empire. After just a few fights, he was covered in wounds. In the end, he used the loyal Guards to seal the terrible demon, and let the Guards take the demon sealed in his body away from the Webway.

It was precisely because of the end of the Empire that in the subsequent decisive battle, the Emperor was severely injured by Horus, who was supported by the Dark Gods, and had to enter the Golden Throne.

The Webway War and the end of the Imperium, as well as the maintenance of Terra's reality veil, had consumed the Emperor, leaving him unable to deal with the combined might of the Four.

Fortunately, before dying, Sanguinius, who was slaughtered by Horus, used all his strength to leave a gap in the opponent's armor.

The Emperor was able to exploit the breach and kill Horus with the help of his first Warmaster, Orr.

In addition to the End of the Empire, which almost changed the outcome of the Horus Heresy, there is also the Phalanx, which severely damaged the Imperial Fists Legion in the defense of the Sol System, and the demon Samus, who almost killed the loyalist Loken, are also warp demons that do not belong to the Four Gods.

Loken was once a subordinate of Horus and a member of the Council of Four Kings. On the planet Intari III, he was listed as a target for purge by Horus because he was unwilling to betray the Emperor and the lofty dream of human transcendence. He led the surviving loyal warriors to resist the attacks of another rebel Primarch Angron for several months on Intari III in an isolated and helpless situation, thus slowing down Horus's rebellion.

All the loyalists who descended to the surface were eventually killed in the orbital bombardment launched by Horus, and he was the only one who survived.

Samus hunted down the traitorous scion on Horus' orders, demonstrating to the other allies her determination to replace the Emperor, using Loken's death to assert her own authority and the consequences of defying him.

In order to protect Loken, a dreamer who once dreamed of joining the expedition to leave a complete history for mankind, the female recorder Messati chose to sacrifice herself and expel Samus.

In addition to these two, there are many other Warp Demons such as Bilak who do not belong to the Chaos Evil God. They form their own camps and usually fight each other, or serve one of the evil gods and fight with the enemy in the Eternal Battlefield.

When the Chaos Gods invade the real world, they will unite with the evil gods to reap human fears, emotions, and souls.

The demons summoned by the Plague Marines belong to their camp, the Plague Demons, also known as Nurgle Demons.

These demons serve the dark god Nurgle in order to spread the plague into the real world.

"A Primarch??"

The first thing the Nurgle demons who entered the battlefield saw was Guilliman holding the Sword of the Emperor.

"A disgusting demon." Guilliman, who was still trying to break the traitor's last line of defense, looked at the demon that emerged from the warp, and his words were equally cold.

"Perhaps the unhappy Mortarion needs a family." The Plague Demon looked at Guilliman and smiled, "I can take you back, and then Mortarion will be happy."

"That stupid traitor needs a stake, and so do you, demon. You still have a chance to go back, or I will burn you to death." Guilliman said bluntly, suddenly raised the Emperor's sword in his hand, killed the last plague warrior in front of him with one sword, and walked towards the demon.
