Chapter 5 5. Please give me a hug, I don’t want to work hard!
Heller's Pass, home of Hades.
The second night after escaping.
Hades sat on the ground speechlessly, with a bandage carefully wrapped around his left arm. He held a small stick and stared at the roasted horse meat on the fire in the center of the room in a daze.
Don't ask him why there is a fire in the center of the house. Take a look at this small mud house with half of the mud wall at the door collapsed, turning it into a semi-open-air mansion!
After Hades escaped from the pursuit range of the Pale Laughter, those strange creatures became so angry that they destroyed half of the wall of his house.
The good news is that the roof on the other side of the kang has not fallen off, so it can still be done.
At this time, Calastyphon was sitting on the other side of the fire, staring at the roasted horse meat with shining eyes.
And Mortarion was holding a woodcutter in his hand, standing at the door of the house like a sentry.
The man believed his adoptive father would come after them and kill them all, so Mortarion had basically been standing guard at the door since their return.
Hades tried to persuade him, but it was useless. Lao Mo was stubborn when he hit a child.
The villagers who had just experienced the attack of the Pale Laughter saw Mortarion guarding the gate and became more frightened.
(But his worries are indeed justified. If Hades hadn't read the script, he would be as vigilant as Mortarion now.) He
looked at Mortarion standing guard at the door speechlessly, and then continued to look empty.
As a hybrid of alien and human, Karastifon is not popular with the villagers on weekdays. He often wanders around various villages just to find a bite to eat.
And Mortarion is an ignorant young man who has just been kidnapped ()
. To put it bluntly, the two eldest brothers have nowhere to go at the moment.
Out of selfish motives, Hades took the two to his home.
He poked the barbecue with a wooden stick. This side looked almost done. He turned it over and grilled it again.
At that time, they were driving the truck all the way, and then when they were close to the valley, Hades succeeded in totaling the car and the truck suddenly rolled away.
If Mortarion hadn't been holding him back, Typhon would have jumped out of the carriage.
Thanks Mortarion.
"Fuck! You kid is going to murder me!"
Typhon cursed, frightened, and climbed out of the car after the car stopped with trembling legs.
(Only a long time later, Hades would belatedly realize that this was the cause of the untouchable constitution.)
Afterwards, they walked back to the village, during which they encountered some low-level monsters. Tarien was incomparable seconds.
So cool.
Hades thought silently. After returning to the village, the cries of the villagers deeply stimulated the three people who came back. After the attack of the Pale Smiler, the slave catching team came here again to search - although not many people were captured
. The villagers cried to bid farewell to the dead, and those who managed to escape cried to reunite. Originally, Mortarion and his team should be welcomed and loved by the villagers as the first contributors to their escape. But all they received was fear and rejection. The villagers gathered together and whispered, fearing that the mountain lord would come down for revenge. Some even suggested that Mortarion and Typhon be killed and sent back to the mountain lord. Hades silently rolled his eyes in his mind. Although there was nothing wrong with the villagers' thinking, the double standards were so rampant that they only mentioned killing Mortarion and Typhon, and did not mention killing his relatives who had just escaped. Give it away too. After all, everyone escaped, why would they only give away those they were unfamiliar with? Moreover, Mortarion, you are a primarch. People are afraid of you. It seems so insignificant... Hades thought about it silently again, and decided to attribute this matter to this face-based world. It stands to reason that there are no ugly Primarchs, but in fact, the twenty-one Primarchs have different affinity with people. Some Primarchs, such as Sanguinius and Fulgrim, have so much charisma that they can be charmed by just a smile. Let strangers pick you up as a baby and take them home to support you. As for Mortarion, uh... this is a reverse maximization of the charm value. In fact, if you look closely, Mortarion also belongs to the original body like a marble sculpture. He is also very handsome, but his temperament is too scary, and Tall and thin, like a stick, with a pale complexion, sunken eye sockets, and a hoarse voice. At first glance, one would think he was the god of death. The first reaction of anyone who sees Mortarion is to hide, rather than being a nymphomaniac like Sanguinius or Fulgrim. So in this matter, the villagers were quite tacitly prepared to vote out Mortarion, who looked like a monster of death. Even if he is a hunter with unparalleled abilities, not a werewolf. Alas, this face-based world. But there were still grateful villagers. Some of the families of the villagers who had escaped gave them some straw and food. On the first night when they returned to the village, Hades simply made a bed with straw, and then simply cooked some porridge with the grain given. After experiencing the desperate escape, the three of them were very tired. Hades just ate a few mouthfuls of porridge before feeling sleepy. Although the wound on his left arm had begun to suppurate, he just bandaged it hastily and lay down on the bed to sleep. . With those two men keeping watch, he didn't have to worry about his enemies at all. That night was one of the few times when Hades fell asleep without warning. In the dream, he was still painting stinky canned chess pieces, and while doing so, he scolded the purchasing agent for raising the price. When he woke up, he found that his left arm had been carefully bandaged again, and lying next to him was Typhon, who was sleeping like a dead pig. He silently wiped the scratches at the corner of his mouth. He must not have been so embarrassed when he was sleeping...certainly not...he tried to stretch, his whole body ached, and he almost cramped halfway through the stretch, but he stopped. He slowly walked to the door and saw Mortarion standing upright like a tall and thin stick, looking at the mountains in the distance. He remained motionless, and when he noticed Hades approaching, he blinked slowly and looked at Hades without any trace. But save for his eyes, Mortarion remained as still as a statue. Hades murmured in his heart, this man is the ceiling that he can currently reach. Even except for the Emperor and the subspace, Hades may not be able to reach a higher existence than Mortarion - -Then you must hug your thighs! ! ! Boss, take me with you! ! ! If you suddenly travel to the past and there is a gangster standing in front of you, he needs you to do him a small favor. At this time, you recognize that he is Liu Bang before he developed. As long as there is no deep hatred, then you will definitely have to do this favor even if you are trying to sell iron. . As long as he ascends to the throne in the future, and remembers that you have helped him before, and showed great mercy to him, wouldn't it be wonderful for him to ascend to heaven, and spend his life as a small feudal landowner? Although there are many people who say that this is too shabby, real men should take the script and conquer the world by themselves! But Hades wants to ask, brother, everyone can dream of being the richest man in the world. Let’s be realistic and become a civil servant first, okay?
It’s true that we don’t have diamonds at the moment, so why should we take the porcelain job?
Working alone is tiring and dangerous, and you will be tortured and killed if you don't pay attention. Wouldn't it be nice to just follow the boss and help shout for help, and live your own little life by picking up the slack?
And he is now in the world of Warhammer, where the fate of human beings is quite tragic.
Long Aotian in Long Aotian, the Emperor, has to kneel down. Why is he, a little time traveler, joining in the fun?
What ability does he have to brazenly say that I can save the world?
Not being beaten down by this world is called victory!
And he doesn’t want to shout long live the Emperor and then serve as fuel for mankind. One more human is not more than him, and one less is not more. In the original book, the human empire has been sustainable for 10,000 years. Isn’t this still the largest in the galaxy? One of the forces is lingering.
Besides, he was always a bastard, could it be possible that he suddenly changed his mind after changing the world?
In the original world, he finally upgraded to a high-end wage earner, saved a small house, bought some handicrafts, and lived a peaceful life.
Just when he was about to let this life go -
he came to this world inexplicably.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ! ! md! ! !
Forget about entering Warhammer, traveling to Terra, Mars, Macragge, Chogoris... Which one is not better than Barbarus? !
If nothing else, he is no longer a human being. Wouldn't it be better to be a happy greenskin? !
His start was only slightly better than the bottom of the hive...
and...why did he meet Mortarion? ! This eldest brother has a lot of inner drama. He is a famous arrogant and conceited person in 40k. His arrogant personality makes it impossible to communicate with him at all.
There are twenty-one primarchs, among them Curze, Mortarion, Perturabo, and Angron are primarchs that no one wants to encounter at all!
...
No, Hades, you can do it. Think about Mortarion who has not yet met the Emperor in the setting. At least the Mortarion described at that time was quite normal except for being a little dark. Even his... An act worthy of true justice.
In fact, judging from Mortarion's resistance experience on Barbarus, Mortarion is also a courageous, resourceful, loving and charismatic leader.
So, which step went wrong?
...
Hades was tired of complaining after traveling here.
In short, the reality is cruel, and what you can do is very simple. Improve your life-saving ability, increase the favorability of the original body Mortarion, and survive until the emperor comes to find Mortarion, and then become a The Astartes have extended their lifespan.
As for the rest, that’s something to think about later.
And now, you social beast, let’s use your spirit to lick your boss!
In all conscience, I am a huge Death Guard fan, otherwise I wouldn't be writing this. (The Ultramarines of Macragge, the Space Wolves of Fenris, the Blood Angels of Baal...which one is not more exciting and easier to write than the Death Guard of Barbarus) It's
just that Mortarion's character is indeed one of the weirdest. , the evaluation about him must not be more positive than negative.
We tried our best to capture his character (but we definitely can’t write that flavor)
