Chapter 240: Odd changes but even remains unchanged, the sign depends on the quadrant.

On the dim bridge, lights flickered, reflecting the cold steel that was full of the smell of iron and blood.

Unlike other flagships, the Iron Blood does not have any transparent windows. Instead, it has only thick platinum armor and displays to transmit images of the outside world.

As the Lord of Olympia and the Primarch of the Iron Warriors, Perturabo lost part of his memory in his childhood, which has always bothered him.

And ever since Perturabo opened his eyes, the purple scar that spanned the galaxy has been his lingering nightmare. No matter when and where, he can always see the existence of the Eye of Terror.

Therefore, Perturabo did not believe what he saw with his own eyes, but instead had extreme trust in the cold machines, which was perfectly inherited by the Fourth Legion.

Steel inside and out is not just a slogan. The Iron Warriors are like cold steel, executing every order accurately and without error.

But since Perturabo met Hogg, he finally told him his secret, and Hogg did not think it was just his fantasy like others did.

Instead, he patiently explained to him the existence of the Eye of Terror, which gave Perturabo a real anchor in his anxious heart.

But Perturabo would never forget that the day after he felt the love, the Emperor came to Olympia and successfully exposed the lie of the woman named Martha.

Perturabo was reminiscing about the past and was awakened by a swallowing sound. After putting on the adamantium bracelet again, he opened the weapon safety on his armor and fired a shot at the rear.

Looking at this strange demon composed of flesh, blood, cables, and unknown machines, Perturabo, who had participated in the Nikea Conference, knew that his attack would not cause any fatal damage to it.

Since the Astronomican was extinguished, the Iron Warriors have been clearing out the rebellion nearby, and a Chaos taint that corrodes steel has quietly spread.

When the first Iron Warrior was corrupted, Perturabo realized it was too late and ordered the execution of these twisted descendants.

At this time, a demon named Vashtor approached him and promised to eliminate pollution in return, hoping that he would join the Warp.

But Perturabo is no fool. After verifying that this demon can really eliminate pollution, he has already determined that the pollution was caused by this bastard. How could he agree to his invitation?

However, in order to restore his offspring's health, the Iron Lord, who had been strong all his life, had to make concessions and allowed Vashtor to come to the Iron Blood, but this decision successfully made Perturabo regret it.

Looking at the big red-skinned guy who was swallowing food next to Vashtor, Perturabo really wanted to blow this glutton to death with one shot. God knows why demons like to eat and eat so much.

But every time Perturabo wanted to shoot this good-for-nothing, Vashtor would immediately appear to stop him, saying nonsense like this was an ally.

But this time, Perturabo couldn't bear it anymore and shouted at Vashtor who was standing in the middle:

"I don't care about your allies. Because of this red-skinned glutton, the food reserves of the Iron Blood are rapidly decreasing. I'm even eating porridge.

What do you think of letting a Primarch only have porridge to eat? And you even asked me to join you. I think you just want to eat white rice, right? "

The furious Lord of Iron made the Iron Warriors who were working very scared. No one wanted to be unlucky, and at the same time, they felt extremely conflicted in their hearts.

Thinking that their father had to cooperate with the demons because of their incompetence, they, who were originally happy about their father's love, also felt a sense of powerlessness and humiliation, and their whole body twisted. Looking at the furious Perturabo, Vashtor knew that if he didn't give an explanation, this twisted Primarch would definitely fight to the death with him, so he had to tell the origin of the demon beside him:

"Your Majesty, although Saipan is indeed... a little greedy, it represents the Burning Legion. You may not understand the situation in the warp.

Nowadays, in addition to the four almighty gods in the Warp, the Burning Legion can be regarded as a force with great potential. Even the chief demon of the great god Khorne has joined the legion.

Even I need the help of the Legion. It's just a little food. At most, I can find another planet to replenish it. You can't lose the big picture for the small one!"

Perturabo didn't listen to Vashtor's explanation at all, but the two key words, Burning Legion and Saipan, caught his attention.

Although it had been a long time, Perturabo still remembered that during the Beast War, he had received support from some strange demons, and one of them, a stupid demon named Saipan, left a particularly deep impression on him.

And during the previous Nikea Conference, he heard Hogg mention the name of the Burning Legion with his own ears, which made Perturabo, who was in a stalemate, stare at the demon named Saipan in front of him.

In Vashtor's eyes, Perturabo's silence was a sign of concession, and he couldn't help but think:
"So what if you are the Primarch? Even if you possess the essence of the Warp, you are still played around by me. You ridiculous Iron Lord, you really think you are a character."

But Vashtor, who was a fox with tens of thousands of years of experience, did not show it. He left a sentence "We are all family" and disappeared. He still had to collect materials to summon allies.

When Vashtor thought about having to get the summoning materials himself, he envied the Iron Warrior even more. He was eager to see Perturabo kneeling at his feet, and he couldn't help but become very motivated.

After confirming that Vashtor had really left, Perturabo became even more unscrupulous in observing the demon named Saipan, and the distance between the two became closer and closer.

After this observation, Perturabo actually noticed something was wrong. Simply put, something didn't smell right!

Due to the extinguishing of the Astronomican, chaos pollution broke out in many human colonies. Even if you didn't know much about demons before, you can still summarize some experience by killing many of them.

Unlike the chaos psychic energy carried by ordinary demons, the instruments on Perturabo's armor did not find any psychic energy from Saipan, but instead detected a high concentration of psionic reaction.

And psionic energy, a weird thing that can turn living things into stupid things, is most likely related to Hogg, and Perturabo has never seen it anywhere else.

But the problem was that he had seen the demon Saipan before, and he was completely different from what he looked like now, which made Perturabo begin to hesitate.

Thinking of this, Perturabo decided to give it a try and said the code he usually used to communicate with Hogg:

"Odd changes to even?"

"Hmm? Look at the quadrant for the symbol!"

Upon hearing these ancient Terrarian words coming from the mouth of the demon, Perturabo seemed to be purified and relieved, and sighed:
"Why am I not surprised at all? Damn Hogg, even if you betray the Empire now, I won't be the least bit surprised!"

"..."
