I write apocrypha in Warhammer

Chapter 1 Apocryphal Authors

Planet Miden, the heavenly world.

This is a rare paradise in the human empire.

No pollution from heavy industry, no unrest and riots.

There are only green waters and green mountains, blue sea and blue sky, as well as leisurely farms and comfortable urban clusters. People work at sunrise and rest at sunset.

The raging war in the galaxy seems to be happening in another dimension to this place.

However, today, a five-man Astartes team came here secretly.

Ten thousand years ago, in order to conquer the galaxy, the Emperor, the Lord of Mankind, chose to cooperate with the Evil God of Chaos, creating twenty-one demigod descendants called Primarchs (including a pair of twins), and using the power from these Primarchs to The extracted gene seeds were used to create twenty legions of Space Marines.

They are the Astartes, superhuman warriors who have undergone nineteen enhanced surgeries, the Emperor's angels of death.

The Astartes team that descended on Middenheim at this time was the descendant of the primarch of the First Legion, Llane El'Jonson, and belonged to the founding chapter of the Dark Angels.

They were conducting an arrest operation, targeting a mortal who wrote banned books, in an ordinary rental house outside the planet's capital city of Middenheim.

Although these space warriors have absolutely eye-catching and majestic bodies, they still find ways to sneak into the city quietly without being noticed by anyone.

Soon, the five Dark Angels arrived at their destination.

After briefly scanning the situation at the scene, Huck, the captain, immediately made arrangements.

He used hand gestures to direct the two subordinates beside him to go to the toilet and balcony windows respectively, so as to cut off the target's chance of escaping. He led the remaining two Dark Angels to break into the room from the front.

Five space warriors entertained a mortal like this. This specification was absolutely luxurious.

Unfortunately, when the Dark Angels broke down the doors and windows and rushed into the room, they found that there was no one inside.

There was no place to hide, no technology for stealth, just a room full of history books for reference, and nearly completed apocryphal works on the table.

"The intelligence was wrong and we missed the point."

Huck sighed and had to admit the failure of this operation.

It seems that the Chapter Leader's high blood pressure will continue to be maintained for a while.

"Captain, I don't understand. According to the existing intelligence, that guy is just a mortal who writes apocrypha. Is there anything worthy of our action?" Team member Moore asked doubtfully.

As one of a million superhuman beings, Space Marines are usually only sent to the most intense battles among the stars, or to perform important tasks closely related to the fate of mankind, instead of participating in the capture of a human being like now. Author of banned books.

Even if such a small matter is handed over to the mortal auxiliary army, they will not accept it because the level is too low, so it should be the responsibility of the local sheriff.

In response, Captain Huck smiled bitterly.

"Because what that boy wrote can make our Chapter Master stomp his feet with hatred, and he can be as irritable as a big green-skinned orc whose skoog was stolen. Since I became a Dark Angel, I am still the first This is the first time I have seen a group leader use so many shielded words to describe a person."

You must know that the Dark Angels are a founding chapter. Even if the number of aliens and traitors who died at the hands of their chapter leader Azrael does not reach one trillion, there must be at least 700,000 to 800,000.

What kind of existence could make the Chapter Leader act so uncalm?

Moore shifted his gaze to the table, where there was an outline of a work that was still in the creation stage.

If you look closely, the name of the book seems to be "The Great Rebellion of Skarbrand".

Just by looking at the title of the book, you can tell that this is an apocryphal book full of blasphemy, because Skarbrand was the former chief demon of Khorne, and Khorne is one of the four evil gods of chaos, a twisted god of war, and a passionate Averse to bloodshed and killing, he likes believers to sacrifice their skulls to Him.

As the chief demon, Skarbrand cut off the most skulls for Khorne, ranking first in the skull list all year round. Those two axes slaughtered countless worlds, and the blood of innocent people on his hands was countless.

A book with such a demon as the main character is definitely not a good book.

Speaking of rebellions, the bloodthirsty Skarbrand did betray his master.

The chief demon blindly believed that his power exceeded that of the gods, so he launched a sneak attack on the blood god Khorne, but was deprived of his mind under Khorne's punishment and ended up in eternal exile.

But Moore doesn't think it's that simple.

Because in the hearts of all Imperial people, the Great Rebellion is a sensitive word.

Once upon a time, Horus Luperkar, the most beloved son of the Lord of Mankind, the Primarch of the Sixteenth Legion and the Imperial Warmaster, launched a huge rebellion that swept the entire galaxy.

That rebellion not only shattered the dreams of all mankind, but also devastated the Emperor, who was forced to sit on the Golden Throne and suppress the damaged Webway for eternity, never to walk the earth again or give any advice to mortals.

The Horus Heresy is an eternal pain in the hearts of the people of the Empire.

Young Moore was a little curious about what this apocrypha called "The Great Rebellion of Skarbrand" was about.

Captain Huck saw More's thoughts and warned: "I suggest you don't touch that book."

Maul said quickly: "I understand, Captain, knowledge means danger. The evil god Tzeentch is full of traps inside. I can control my curiosity."

Tzeentch is one of the four evil gods of chaos, also known as the Lord of Change. He is a twisted god of wisdom.

This evil god likes to control destiny and prepare plans. He often takes advantage of mortals' thirst for knowledge and leads them step by step into corruption.

Therefore, in this universe, any exploration of knowledge must be guarded against the evil god Tzeentch digging a hole in it.

However, Huck shook his head and said: "That's not what I'm worried about. What I'm worried about is that if you read these apocryphal books, you will be like our Chapter Master, with high blood pressure. When you meet the target later, you will not be able to help but kill him directly. Our mission is to escort the target to the leader alive, so we must not forget this."

When accepting the mission from the group leader, Huck had read these apocrypha beforehand and knew how difficult it would be to resist killing that kid. Fortunately, he was the most determined person among the Dark Angels, so he was sent to perform this task.

"Is there really no danger?"

Huck's explanation made the surrounding Dark Angels become more curious.

"Of course, if you are confident, you can look through it, just think of it as a test of your determination."

Young people cannot just accept protection; they must undergo some training before they can become successful.

Now that the captain Huck has spoken, the remaining four team members, look at me and I look at you, finally opened the apocrypha on the table titled "The Rebellion of Skarbrand" , gathered in a circle and read carefully.

The book begins with a monologue. It seems that the bloodthirsty demon Skarbrand has suffered a great injustice and is making a severe accusation to the blood god Khorne:

"That was never what I wanted."

"I never thought my Legion would attack."

"Together we banish the decadent age of pleasure."

"But you betrayed me and all of us demons!"

"You stole the power of the real universe and lied to your sons."

"The devil only has one chance to revive, and if you don't seize it, then let me do it."

"Let the war begin!"

"From the sky coverage of the Brass Citadel to the edge of the Warp."

"Let the sea of ​​souls boil and let the stars of natural disasters fall."

"Even if I shed my last drop of blood, I will see the warp liberated again."

"If I can't save it from your failure, Father..."

"Then let the warp burn!"

After reading the preface of the book, the four of them had strange expressions on their faces.

Why is this plot so familiar?

Isn't this a replica of the Warmaster's denunciation of the Emperor during the Horus Heresy?

Not to say that the content is exactly the same, at least it is exactly the same, but the characters have been changed.

Since the author of the book compares Skarbrand, who launched the rebellion, to Horus, wouldn't Khorne, who was betrayed, be a metaphor?

"Blasphemy, this is blasphemy, what do the people of the Tribunal do for food!"

The Dark Angels suddenly started shouting and cursing.

The newcomer is on the road, please support me.

This book is an apocrypha, so it has no Warhammer flavor, and there are a lot of details. If you want to feel the orthodoxy of Warhammer or if you like more serious readers, please read it at your own discretion.
