Chapter 376 366. Tzeentch always has a plan.
On the Emperor's Dream, in a hidden corner that no one can find... there was
an explosive
sound of opening the lunch box, and Hades, who looked bored, took it silently. Pick up the spoon and get ready to eat.
In order to support the emperor, he had been without food or water for nine days and nine nights. Although this was not a problem at all, Hades still deeply regretted that he wasted the opportunity to have food for nine days.
He had to eat it back.
However, Malcador had also been hungry for nine days and nine nights. With the old man's stature, Hades thought about it, and he was ultimately afraid that Malcador would fall in front of him and blackmail him.
Hades quickly finished today's meal. He held a spoon in his mouth and stared at the opposite side of him - this is why he is here.
The iron grid is carved with layers of runes, and black stone chains are wrapped around the iron grid, slightly resonating with the black domain of Hades. Outside the room, there are countless soulless people lined up on guard.
The hair exploded, and the originally tall decorative horns on his armor were roughly broken off, revealing the damaged section. Magnus was originally the strongest and tallest among the three original bodies, and only Vulkan could compete with him.
But now, after just nine days and nine nights, plus three days of imprisonment on the Emperor's Dream, Magnus was already haggard. He was as dying as a cracked fish. He looked as thin as Mortari. It's settled.
Well, maybe even if Magnus only has one piece of skin left, he won't be as skinny as Mortarion.
Hades stared at Magnus boredly. He was now some kind of jailer. He was not afraid that Magnus would see his casual posture - a white cloth was simply tied around Magnus's eyes. The place where the one eye used to be was dripping with dried blood.
And Magnus obviously never touched psychic powers again after being taught a lesson by the Emperor, so Hades was not afraid of Magnus using psychic powers to detect him.
Next, the Emperor will take the Death Guard and Space Wolves to Prospero to confirm the extent of Tzeentch's corruption, and Hades and Magnus will also ride aboard the Emperor's Dream Go -
but Hades will be Magnus's caretaker, not Prospero's burner, and he needs to make sure Magnus doesn't suddenly pull any tricks.
Although the Emperor verbally promised Hades to let Malcador work shifts with him, it was obvious that Malcador planned to let Hades finish this round of working hours. The old man looked at Hades vaguely and said, "
... You can try to communicate with him."
Hades blinked innocently, and he spread his hands,
"I usually don't talk to the dead."
Malcador directly hit the ground with his scepter, but the scepter fell. The point was Hades's helmet and boots. Hades hurriedly dodged, not knowing what he said wrongly.
Malcador gritted his teeth and said,
"Magnus is still useful. This is why my lord kept him." ."
Hades swallowed,
"You are going to put him on the horse - I mean the golden throne, and use it as a large power bank?"
Malcador frowned, why did Hades always feel that the old man Are you favoring Magnus because they both have the surname Horse and are both psykers?
Malcador seemed to know that once Hades was silent, he was definitely not thinking of good things. The old man spoke directly, interrupting Hades's free and divergent thinking,
"You are thinking too simply, Hades."
Malcador said lowly He said,
"We are different from you - I mean psykers are different from you, Hades. You only analyze problems based on logic and reality."
Hades blinked,
"Uh... so Psykers don't use their brains to analyze problems?"
Malcador hit him with a stick, and Hades shut up completely, so the regent could finally continue his topic and explain to the first-class psionic Muggle in the galaxy. Psionics,
"My Lord, like me and other outstanding psykers, we do not just look at the logic of reality. There is a subspace in this world, and psykers can judge the future by observing its ripples. ——And this is usually far more accurate than realistic reasoning."
Hades looked at Malcador indifferently. In his eyes, this was like guessing fortune by palmistry, but since it really works, Hades Deciding not to provoke Malcador,
"Then what is the result of your reasoning?"
Hades said,
"I remember... Magnus did not follow his soul with..."
Hades's voice gradually became smaller. , the speech is vague.
"Yes,"
Malcador said calmly,
"He made a deal with the evil behind the curtain - giving a part of his soul."
Hades was silent, he looked at Malcador and said,
"Then what's the point? Shouldn't-" He drew a thin line on his neck with his hand, and
Malcador frowned,
"But it also means that he still has a large part of his soul that he can control."
"Can't we separate? "
Hades spoke, as if asking a mentally retarded question. Malcador suddenly raised his voice, like a parrot that finally couldn't help but burst out,
"Do you think psychic energy is such a simple existence?! He The contract was made with the Changing One, and now my lord can only guarantee that he will not explode suddenly."
Then the incident returned to its original point, Hades blinked and said,
"Then can't we kill him?"
Hades Si felt that the old man was about to twitch with anger, so he hurriedly added,
"I just want to know why you took such a big risk to keep him. What makes you insist on keeping a bomb that you don't know when it will explode?
" Cardo opened his mouth, he wanted to say something, but he finally became tired again, and he
said feebly,
"My Lord is betting."
"What?"
Hades said, and Malcador had to speak to He explained this frustrating reality,
"Magnus's fate is not fixed. Even though he has long been tied to a ship, the river still has many branches. He still has other possibilities, and among the few branches that humankind wins, , Magnus is indispensable - at least in our Lord's prophecies, the figure of the Red Sinner has never been absent."
Hades took a breath,
"I understand,"
he said,
"That is to say, That guy didn't completely fix Magnus' fate. This was intentional. It wanted the Emperor to... er, play with him? Or maybe it used Magnus to make a revolver and then inserted it into it. Put a few bullets in it and let the Emperor take turns shooting with it, right?"
Malcador nodded,
"It's a rough metaphor, but you at least understand a little bit."
Hades said abruptly,
"I mean, can I use the Black Domain to intercept this section of the river?"
Malcador shook his head,
"This is the main road for the destiny of the entire human race. Maybe you can do it in the future... But now... ..."
Malcador looked at Hades,
"You might as well capture a few more unlucky forging worlds to pray for you."
Hades opened his hand, thinking that Jin and Kirkland were scary enough,
"You are not afraid that it will be given to you. Are you stumbling? It controls part of Magnus's soul, and it is responsible for this."
Malcador was silent for a long time, and then the old man spoke slowly and tiredly,
"This also means that Magnus Si still dominates most of his soul, and he can still struggle." "
And...its power still cannot change the general trend that has begun to flow. My Lord is also observing the direction of the river. If he is not sure of victory, he will not He will do this."
Malcador sighed,
"Hades, you can rest assured... Our Lord will never believe him. Even if he complies with the prophecy, he will take coercive measures to imprison Magnus. He If you won’t be free, you don’t have to worry so much.”
Macado paused,
“The Lord of Mankind has made his decision, and he will make this gamble.”
The old man looked at Hades melancholy,
“If If you are really worried about this matter, Hades, just watch Magnus for me and warn him more. You may be able to make him not struggle so much when we take coercive measures." "Time is not enough
. More... You are only allowed to guard Magnus during the time he pays off Prospero."
Hades opened his mouth and saw, this is the top pua, and in the end he stood up to Malcador Machado also asked him to seize the opportunity to do this job.
Seeing Malcador about to leave, Hades quickly spoke,
"...last question, how is the Emperor?"
Malcador's leaving figure paused for a moment,
"It's bad, but he is used to it."
No more, Great!
