Chapter 371 Brother, can you swim?
The Primarchs are not perfect, but imperfection is precisely their greatest strength.
Even though the term "astonishing wisdom" was discredited by Magnus, as long as Magnus doesn't go crazy or make a psychic call to others for no reason, he is still very reliable given the level of the Empire's first think tank.
When Magnus heard that someone wanted to treat him to a meal, he instantly became excited. He didn't care about the experimental results anymore. He immediately hugged Hogg's thigh and cried and begged him to take him with him. After all, doing scientific research was not as important as eating.
The Primarch was big in stature, so his appetite must have exceeded that of an ordinary person. Since Hogg was treating, the good brothers naturally would not let him suffer, and immediately picked the most expensive one. Moreover, they brought their families with them and called all the offspring they could find over.
Looking at the group of gluttons in front of him who were shouting loudly that they were hungry but never stopped eating, Hogg suddenly felt a little regretful. But there was no reason to take back the pretense, so he could only force himself to let his brothers eat as much as they wanted, saying that he had plenty of money.
But as he was eating, Hogg felt something was wrong. Why were there more and more people? There were even a few guards among them. Even Malcador came over.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Hogg wanted to run away immediately, but he was knocked back by a lump of iron as soon as he went out. He looked closely and found that the person was the emperor with a smirk on his face:
"Old man Huang, when did you come?"
"When did you come? You bastard, you didn't even invite me to dinner. Do you still respect me as your father? Don't worry, since you are so filial, not only will I come, I will also bring all the imperial guards with me."
When Hogg stuck his head out, he found that there was a group of large corn spirits behind the emperor. Now he was really panicked.
Even though Hogg was the Primarch of the Black Watch and was extremely wealthy, he kept all his pocket money with Emilia, who said she would buy him a big battleship when he grew up.
The emperor did not give Hogg a chance to escape. He grabbed the dwarf with a wandering look and joined him in eating together with the imperial guards with green eyes behind him.
All the guests had a great time at the banquet, and the atmosphere was full of joy. Only Hogg, who was being trampled upon, wanted to cry but had no tears. He even lost interest in eating. Finally, he called for the butler to help and was finally released by the hotel owner.
Back in the basement of the palace, everyone, who had eaten and drunk their fill, came to the magic circle to conduct the final test of this trans-time and space operation.
With the experience of the first trip, Hogg and his companions certainly would not rush in foolishly. Instead, they would bring supplies in advance to deal with any emergencies.
He also made a metal warehouse that could withstand space turbulence to ensure that he would not travel through time physically like last time, when he almost died halfway.
Although the pocket dimension was fully stocked with supplies, it might not be opened after traveling through time. Hogg specially found a giant backpack and put the magic array materials in it again.
Before leaving, Hogg specially called the Four Heavenly Kings over, explained his final arrangements in front of all the Primarchs and the Emperor, and asked his good brothers to help Black Watch after he was gone.
As Hogg's most trusted man, Perturabo naturally became the temporary commander of the Blackwatch again and commanded the troops on behalf of Hogg.
Looking at the two men who were already armed to the teeth, Goda was very considerate and took out two more packages and handed them over:
“Master, remember to protect yourself when you get there. Here are the compressed dog food and fodder I prepared for you two, remember to eat them sparingly.
Like Gouzi, all the brothers gave their small gifts, mostly food. After all, they were really afraid that these two gluttons would starve to death over there.
Hogg was very touched by the large and small bags he carried, but he was afraid that he would be crushed to death by these things after he turned into a corgi, so he threw them to Magnus. After all, he was a horse and was born to do this job. After the farewell session, the two stood in the center of the magic circle and waved to Ahriman, the commander, to activate the magic circle.
After receiving the order, Ahriman, the psychic boy, simply pulled down the joystick, and the psychic circuit engraved on the adamantine deck began to charge. Accompanied by a ray of colorful rainbow light, the space here plunged into the torrent of time, emitting a dazzling light.
When the light faded, everyone found that Hogg and the other man did not leave. Instead, they looked at them in a daze. Now everyone was dumbfounded. Didn’t they agree to travel through time and beat up the fat guy? Was there a limit on the number of people?
It was unclear whether the space-time tunnel had a limit or not. Magnus was really confused. As the inventor of the magic circle, he knew the function of this thing. It shouldn't work. The copycat version 6500 million years ago was successful. How could his own fine product fail?
Magnus immediately began to inspect it, but no matter how he checked, he could not find the problem. He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. A group of Primarchs also surrounded him, trying to figure out the problem with their meager psychic knowledge.
But what no one noticed was that the broken horn that was the core of the magic circle was melting rapidly, and Ahriman, the operator, did not pull back the lever at all.
Seeing Hogger, who had not yet recovered from the pocket money crisis, Guilliman took out a small cake that he had left over and wanted to take another bite, but he really couldn't eat it anymore, so he had to carry the cake over to him:
"Hogg, I have a cake here, do you want to eat it?"
In the past, Hogg would definitely accept any gift, but now he gets angry when he sees the cake because it’s all his hard-earned money.
"Eat, why not? I didn't eat anything just now, and now I'm hungry, bring it to me."
Guilliman curled his lips. He knew that Hogg, the good-for-nothing, would not refuse. He entered the magic circle holding the cake. When he passed by Magnus, he nudge him, causing the pony to fall on his butt.
But there is a price to pay for being naughty. The moment Magnus fell out of the magic circle, the broken horn melted completely, and the huge energy fluctuation completely shattered the gap in time and space.
Guilliman, half of his body was still outside the magic circle, was pulled over by Hogg. If he didn't do this, who knows if this idiot Guilliman would be torn into pieces by the turbulence of time and space.
"boom!"
As the colorful rainbow light flashed, the two people who had just hidden in the metal warehouse disappeared instantly, and huge energy fluctuations radiated from Holy Terra.
The thread of fate was connected again, and Hogg's unique high-dimensional characteristics took effect, and a dusty memory surfaced.
At the same time, a hysterical roar came from the Nurgle Realm deep in the warp, and countless demons fled in all directions. They had never encountered such an angry father:
"Damn it Hogg, it turns out you're the bastard, you deceived me!"
But Hogg could not hear the roar. He was now in a state of confusion. It was not because he had once again turned into a corgi less than 30 cm tall and Guilliman had turned into a blue cat, but because the place where they landed was a bit awkward.
Looking at the endless sea in front of him, Hogg asked Guilliman who was holding on to his fur tightly:
"Brother, can you swim?"
