Chapter 141: Zhuang Sen Finally Changes
Chapter 141: Zhuang Sen Finally Changes
One month later.
Sanguinius returned alone to the Holy Terra Empire through the Space Gardens.
Dorn returned to the Empire on a Phalanx with Sigismund and some of the Imperial Fist's Templars.
Returning with them were countless descendants of the Dark Angels.
The moment Zhuang Sen walked out of Li Jia's mind space, it was the same as Sanguinius and Dorn.
All his descendants felt the same.
All the descendants of the Dark Angels immediately left behind sufficient forces to garrison the occupied areas, except for those who were on expeditionary missions and could not leave.
The remaining descendants of the Dark Angel Jonson all returned to Holy Terra on warships.
They couldn't wait to meet the father of genes whom they hadn't seen for ten thousand years.
When they arrived near the orbit of Holy Terra, the Chapter Masters of the Dark Angels and some of their leadership rushed to the Holy Terra Palace without stopping.
However, in order not to disturb the Emperor, Zhuang Sen took the initiative to come to the open space outside the Holy Terra Palace.
While standing there looking up at the sky waiting for his offspring's return, he listened to the prompt tone of all his offspring requesting to connect to the Dark Angels public channel on the communicator.
After the public channel was connected, familiar yet unfamiliar voices rang out from Zhuang Sen's communicator.
Soon, transport planes painted with the logos of various sub-regiments arrived above Zhuangsen's head.
Jonson watched his battle-brothers leap from the transport.
"Father".
All the descendants of darkness immediately bowed their heads respectfully in the Sky Eagle Salute.
Then he raised his head and looked at Zhuang Sen excitedly.
Jonson looked around.
I saw many familiar faces in the crowd. They had shed their childishness and become the Chapter Masters, Chief Think Tanks, Champions, and Chief Priests of a famous Chapter.
The Dark Spawns of these sub-regiments looked past Zhuangsen and looked at the tens of thousands of Dark Spawns standing behind the Primarch.
These tens of thousands of Dark Descendants standing behind Zhuang Sen were the Dark Descendants who had walked out of the Dark Angels' founding group barracks in the past month or so.
"Father, we..."
Many of the chapter leaders were interrupted by Zhuang Sen's wave of his hand before they could finish their words.
"Forget it, maybe Thirteenth Brother's decision is right."
Since Zhuang Sen was born from the barracks in Li Jia's brain, he has learned a lot from the dark descendants about what happened in Holy Terra during his ten thousand years of sleep.
This includes the Thirteenth Brother splitting up his legion, and the Holy Terra that once struggled among the various races in the galaxy.
After ten thousand years of slumber, this once willful, arrogant Primarch finally began to think calmly.
Although he still hated Chaos, it was extremely ironic that Chaos Space Marines were now serving the new Emperor.
He had been angry at first, but what was the use? He couldn't just kill all the Chaos Space Marines in one rage.
He also knew that was impossible.
Finally, under the persuasion of Malcador and the chief think tank of the Dark Angels, the Lion King finally let go of his inner pride.
He, who never bowed to anything, chose to respond with silence for the first time.
In the past, he could not tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes.
This time he chose to keep his eyes clear and his mind clear.
He also proposed to the new Emperor Li Jia to leave Holy Terra early, wanting to arrange an indefinite expedition for himself.
But Li Jia asked him to wait a little longer.
Zhuang Sen had no choice but to wait quietly.
A glint of disappointment flashed in the eyes of the Chapter Masters of these sub-Chapters.
"Now we serve the new Emperor, and the past will be past."
Zhuang Sen turned around and walked towards the palace hall first.
The Dark Sons stood there and watched Jonson leave. In fact, their relationship with the Primarch Jonson was not that harmonious in the past.
Because Zhuang Sen never listens to other people's opinions and only acts according to his own wishes.
The Dark Angels Chapter has sacrificed the lives of too many of their battle-brothers for their Primarch Jonson's almost pathological obsession with the rebel Primarch Konrad Curze.
But at this moment, they were uncharacteristically eager for Zhuang Sen to lead them again and regain the honor of the First Legion.
This is also the reason why they all put aside the war and rushed back to Holy Terra.
But the result is...
"Why".
A Chapter Master sighed, then turned and left.
After the first person left, the others also left quietly.
But just as they were about to step into the transport plane, Grand Marshal Meda of the Royal Guards came over.
"Brothers, the Emperor invites you to attend the next appointment and dismissal ceremony of the Empire."
"Yes, Lord Medha."
All the descendants of the Dark Angels performed the Sky Eagle Salute and then followed Meda towards the palace.
The palace could not accommodate so many people, so only the captains of each sub-chapter could attend.
The others returned to the battleship for the time being.
Tens of thousands of chapter leaders followed Meda into the majestic palace.
When tens of thousands of chapter masters arrived at the open-air Imperial Square, many Astartes had already gathered there.
They also saw Sanguinius and Dorn standing beside Emperor Li Jia.
They all performed the Sky Eagle Salute.
Sanguinius and Dorn nodded.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, I'll make an announcement here."
Li Jia stood up and walked to the edge of the platform, looking at the densely packed chapter commanders below, the Space Marines stationed at the Holy Terra Palace, and the Royal Guards surrounding the square.
When everyone heard Li Jia's words, they all looked forward to their new faith.
"The Empire will appoint Jonson, Dorn, and Sanguinius as the new Warmasters of the Holy Empire of Terra."
As soon as Li Jia finished speaking, everyone in the square was in an uproar.
Unexpectedly, the new emperor Li Jia appointed three war generals at the same time.
"Yes, my father." X3
Jonson, Dorn, and Sanguinius bowed their heads in the Eagle Salute.
"The three of you will lead the three external expeditionary forces of the Holy Terra Empire. Malcador will divide the attack routes for you later."
"Yes, my father." X3
"I will live up to the Emperor's trust. I will destroy all the enemies of the Empire in the cradle, and all aliens will become history. This universe belongs to Father and the Empire."
Dorn was the first to speak and utter the Oath of Appointment, followed by the Salute of the Eagle.
Li Jia looked at Dawn.
I didn't expect this 'little old man' to be so passionate.
Honest people are indeed different.
Zhuang Sen said nothing and continued to perform the Sky Eagle Salute.
Sanguinius looked at his two brothers.
Then he looked at Emperor Li Jia.
"For my father and the empire, I will do my best."
After saying this, Sanguinius performed the Sky Eagle Salute again, but his signature gentleness appeared on his face.
"Okay, the appointment ceremony is over, and a dinner has been prepared for you. We will talk while eating."
After Li Jia finished speaking, he came in front of the three Primarchs.
"No, father, I beg to leave now."
