Chapter 136: The Dark Saint

In the reception room, the slovenly Hogg had been washed thoroughly by Emilia and changed into more decent clothes, thus saving the face of the Lord of the Black Watch.

Sanguinius, who was wearing special effects, was about to talk about the purpose of his visit, but was interrupted by Hogg.

"Brother, can you turn off that special effect? ​​Your light is too bright. My light bulb is not as bright as yours."

Hearing such a request, Sanguinius was helpless and could only repeat in his mind, "Don't be angry, don't be angry. I came here to ask for help. I must endure it for the Blood Angels."

The archangel with a kind face but a dark heart maintained his personality, nodded in agreement with a smile, adjusted his decorations and turned off the lights, looking like a good brother next door.

"Okay, brother. Now can we get down to business?"

Without the dazzling light, Hogg also relaxed. Whenever he saw Sanguinius, he would always think of Old Man Huang. Having just done something bad, he least wanted to be discovered by the Emperor.

"Tell me what you want from me. Let me make it clear that we in Blackwatch are relatively poor. We don't have money unless you bring something in exchange."

"Hmm~ Hogg, I don't want your money. Besides, it's useless to me. I don't understand why you, as the Primarch, are so obsessed with this kind of thing."

"I came here this time to ask you to help me solve the mutation problem within the Blood Angels, just like you solved the Thousand Sons gene mutation. You must have a way, right?"

With a sincere look on his face, Sanguinius even winked at Hogg. If Hogg didn't know the inside story of the Ninth Legion, he would have agreed, but the key was that he knew it.

"Ah? I thought you had already solved the anomaly. Your family's situation is too complicated to handle!"

Hogg was not talking nonsense, nor was he unwilling to help the angels. It was just that the situation of the Blood Angels was not just due to genetic mutation, but was also mixed with metaphysics.

As the most special Primarch of the Empire, although the Archangel looks glamorous on the surface, he also has his greatest pain, which is the changes within the Legion.

There are two types of causes for this legion's mutation. One is that there is dirt in his hometown, and the other is just an ordinary genetic mutation.

After being swept away by the warp storm, Sanguinius came to the strange planet of Baal, which had been completely turned into a wasteland due to a tragic nuclear war.

It is full of mutants and deadly radiation, and that planet, like Catachan and Fenris, has its own planetary consciousness and is alive.

Moreover, this consciousness is divided into two sides, one is the pure white holy angel, and the other is the dark fallen angel. The two planetary consciousnesses take turns serving the Ninth Legion, which regards this place as its mother planet. If nothing unexpected happens, an accident is bound to happen.

This triggered a strange phenomenon called blood thirst, which, combined with their original bloodthirsty mutation, turned them into a state of being neither human nor ghost, comparable to vampires.

So even though he had some of the best biochemical knowledge in the empire, Hogg had no way to completely cure their problem. This was not a simple physics problem at all.

"Brother! I have a plan that can perfectly solve your mutation, but it requires a small sacrifice. Do you want to listen?"

"Listen, I know you have a way. Tell me quickly. If it works, I will definitely give you a great gift. We Blood Angels may not have anything else, but we have a lot of good things."

The excited Archangel no longer cared about vulgarity. At this moment, he would satisfy Hogg whatever he wanted. For the first time, he showed a genuine smile on his face, but Hogg's words stopped him from smiling. "You blew up Baal."

"???"

Sanguinius would never do such a thing as blowing up his own home planet, but he also understood what Hogg meant, and saw that his little brother knew them very well.

The dejected Archangel slumped in his chair. He knew very well that this was a permanent solution, but he couldn't do it.

"Hogg, you don't know. This matter is very complicated." Hogg, who felt there was something fishy going on, pricked up his ears and listened, hoping to know some inside information that he didn't know. After all, he was a cloud hammer in his previous life and he really didn't know the details.

Hogg, who was not afraid of trouble, took out two bottles of wine from his pocket dimension, popped the bottle caps and gave one to the angel, and the two brothers continued chatting with each other over the liquor.

"Brother, do you think I'm fake? I pretend to be so even in front of my relatives." "Great and glorious?" "Yes, I pretend to be great and glorious." After taking a sip of the strong liquor, the special liquor made the Primarch feel a little dizzy.

"I'm not like you, Hogg. Before I returned to the Legion, the Blood Angels had another name - the Ghoul Legion. I pulled them back from the abyss, but I'm still afraid that my father will eliminate them.

For this reason, I can only try my best to do my best and be a true angel, all to cover up the darkness within the legion.

And we can't live without Baal. I made a deal with Star Soul without my father knowing. The impulse of my soul will accompany me throughout my life, and will also accompany my descendants throughout their lives.

So I didn’t dare to go to our father and explain everything, that’s why I came to you.”

Upon hearing this, Hogg called Sanguinius too fussy, saying that a mere mutation was nothing! His Blackwatch was no longer human, and directly merged with the Zerg to become a small monster.

And Sanguinius was exhausted by this minor problem, which wasted his pair of cool big wings.

Hogg, who was drunk, slammed the table and transformed into his true form on the spot. The distorted appearance scared the angel, who cried out "what the hell"!

"Sanguinius, you rubbish, why are you so flustered? Didn't Old Man Huang tell you that we are not human beings? Why would he bother you when he has such bad behavior? Am I fine even though I am like this?

You're right to come to me this time. Old Huang knows nothing! That sword-wielding Ogryn has half the wisdom of mine, except for playing with psychic energy? Does he have it? "

The archangel showed an affirmative look at the right time, as if to confirm Hogg's ability. "Father is okay! It's all my fault that I didn't explain it to him well. Besides, father also said that you can help me solve the problem of the mutation."

Sanguinius's aggrieved expression made Hogg even more angry. He instantly thought of everything the Emperor had done. This scumbag behavior of not caring about raising a child but giving birth to him made him curse him as a jerk again.

"Brother, as the most powerful master in the empire, I will take care of your matter. We will go to Bal tomorrow and show you what a real man of action is."

Hogg drank the liquor in his mouth in one gulp and was about to leave angrily. Halfway through, he turned back and plucked a feather from the angel before leaving. But what he didn't see was that the archangel, who had originally looked aggrieved, smiled evilly, as if his plan had succeeded.

"Perturabo, you are right. Hogg is indeed easy to appease!"
