Magnus's scream rang out.
【Russ!!!】
[Hahahaha! Good bro! You dodged that fast!!]
The Wolf King twisted the accelerator with one hand, took a swig of wine with the other, laughed loudly, and clinked glasses with the Khan, who stood to the side with his arms crossed, waiting for him.
On the other side, Hades plummeted rapidly. Because he was holding a fries in his mouth, he couldn't shout, and instead mumbled curses in frustration.
Koz, who was hanging upside down from the ceiling, pulled him up, preventing Hades from losing all the food in his hands. Hades landed miraculously, with all the food on his body still secure.
Applause rang out in the room. Hades decisively handed the food that was occupying his hands to Angron, who came to fetch him. Then he pulled out two huge roasted beef legs from the pile of food above his head, one in each hand. He turned his head, his eyes flashing with an eerie light.
He aimed at the wolf king, who was laughing wildly, and at Magnus, who was loudly rebuking Russ.
Two sonic booms rang out one after the other!
【vomit!!!】
Riemann Russ and Magnus collapsed to the ground, clutching their necks, with roasted beef legs stuck in their mouths.
Hades withdrew his hand with satisfaction, clapped his hands, and took the bag of fries out of his mouth.
"It's your own fault."
Hades shook his head, watching the Khan shaking and trying to save Magnus, who was foaming at the mouth.
He seems to have accidentally injured someone, but it doesn't matter; Magnus's scream just now was annoying enough.
Hades turned his head and saw a room full of Primarchs.
Saint Gilles is talking to Horus, Angron and Vulcan are distributing the barbecue Hades handed them, Guilliman is laughing and clinking glasses with Dorn, Koz and Corax are chatting in hushed tones, but on the ceiling, Mortarion is taking the roast meat from Vulcan and trying to add toppings, Loka is praying devoutly with his eyes closed, and Fugen and Fenus are talking beside Loka.
【Happy New Year!】
Upon seeing Hades enter, Fugen raised his glass first, offering a graceful and high-profile toast, followed by the others who also began to offer their congratulations.
"Happy New Year—wait, where's Neos?!"
Hades responded, and then the door was opened again, and the Emperor walked in wearing his golden loungewear, golden slippers, and a somewhat comical, Santa hat-like hat, but in gold.
He was holding a mug that was still slowly steaming. Unsurprisingly, it was a gold mug with a large "#1" written on it.
The moment Hades entered, he clearly saw the Emperor's expression freeze for a split second, but then the Emperor regained his dignified and calm demeanor.
"Happy New Year."
The Lord of Mankind said that Hades decisively moved to the side and stood with the Dark Mothman in the shadowy corner, watching as the Emperor's children stepped forward one by one, solemnly and earnestly kneeling on one knee to offer their blessings to the Emperor.
Perhaps because they were meeting the Lord of Man, apart from Mortalian's usual shabby attire, the other Primarchs were all dressed in light formal wear, with intricate patterns and crisp fabrics, which contrasted sharply with the Lord of Man whom they were kneeling to celebrate.
"Aren't you going to pray to him?"
Hades whispered something to Mortalian, handing him a fry. Mortalian, his vision blurred by the fog, smacked his lips.
I can't kneel down.
Mortarian said, "The wings are too big."
It has no taste.
He then added his comments on the fries.
“Well,” Hades said, “you don’t look very festive, so you’re not suited for an awkward situation, Mortarian.”
Mortarian responded with two cold laughs.
I would rather die than wear any decorations like those of an archangel on my wings.
He pointed to the gold ornaments on Saint Gilles' wings. Hades looked up and saw the archangel. On those huge, pure white wings, Hades even saw blessings made of fine gold, such as "Happy New Year".
Hades turned his head, frowning thoughtfully as he stared at Mortalian's wings, from which vengeful spirits were screaming.
Mortarion decisively struck Hades with his wings. Hades staggered a little, chuckled, and thought, "I'd better just hold my fries and watch the Primarch celebrate with the Emperor."
------------
In the dimly lit room, people gathered around a huge long sofa in the center, while beanbag chairs the size of the original body were placed on a thick plush carpet. The moviegoers sat or lay down, all intently watching the film selected by the Lord of Humanity.
When the scene came up where the Crimson King kissed the White Wolf Girl, Hades was completely absorbed and ate another handful of popcorn.
The second reboot of "The Great Rebellion 3 (Part 1)" tells the story of the Red Emperor, an uncrowned king misunderstood by the empire. The Red Emperor is exiled to the territory of his mortal enemy, the Wolf King, where he meets a white wolf girl from Fenris. The eldest daughter of the largest tribe in Fenris defies the wishes of the wolf clan, secretly breaks the taboo, meets the sinner Red Emperor, and is willing to believe the prophecy that the Red Emperor sees, helping him escape from the Wolf King's imprisonment.
Driven by the power of love, the two defeated Tzeentch, the demon who framed the Red Emperor and made him a sinner, and successfully broke free from the Wolf King's numerous obstacles. Finally, atop Fenris, where lava burst and the earth's crust moved violently, the two exchanged the two heads of Tzeentch Carlos as a token, embraced and kissed amidst the collapsing mountains of Fenris, and finally parted ways.
The Crimson Emperor will travel to the subspace to join his battlefield, while the White Wolf Girl will head to the Web Path to defeat a new conspiracy by the evil subspace.
At the moment of parting, the Crimson Emperor held the white wolf girl's hand tenderly and uttered those words—
I love you deeply and would give anything for you—but I have already given my all for humanity!!!
Ruth roared, delivering the exact same lines as the person on screen. He laughed so hard he almost fell off the sofa, tears streaming down his face.
【Russ!!!】
Magnus screamed angrily and began to beat Ruth with the popcorn bucket. The two wrestled and grappled, with popcorn flying everywhere and embedding itself in Saint Gilles' wings, causing the archangel to vibrate automatically.
Have you forgotten your psychic girlfriend?!
Magnus shouted, which enraged the wolf king.
The Crimson King refers to the second remake of *The Great Rebellion 3: Part 2*, which tells the story of the Wolf King's encounter with a young psychic apprentice in the fragmented Thousand Sons Legion. This version is even more absurd than *Part 1*, and the Wolf King contributes many classic lines, such as...
“Woman, you’re playing with fire (warp fire).”; “You’re not like other psionicists.”; “Your face is as red as Kaban’s muscles, and your hair is as black and shiny as Kaban’s hooves.”
This is why Magnus was so lenient with his version of the film. He watched his first, and was so angry that his face was seven or eight times redder than Kabanha's buttocks. Then, after being held down by the Khan, he immediately watched Wolf King's version. Magnus's laughter lasted for nine days and nine nights before he collapsed from laughing.
The first thing Magnus did upon waking was to shout at Riemann Russ.
You've finally met your match!
From then on, the two became obsessed with collecting merchandise featuring the female lead from the movie across the street. Magnus even had a t-shirt with the face of Chiko printed on it, which he proudly wore to ridicule Leman Russ, only to be beaten up by the enraged Wolf King.
The cast list has already started playing on the screen. Hades took a bite of popcorn and watched Magnus and Riemann Russ's brawl with even more relish—it must be said that the Emperor has a very keen eye for choosing films.
The fight between the two was quite a spectacle, and everyone enjoyed it for a while. Then the Lion King pulled the Wolf King away, and the Khan pulled Magnus away, separating the two.
Feeling a bit dizzy from watching the movie, the crowd, at the Emperor's suggestion, went out to the rooftop for some fresh air. It was already late at night, and the night was rather empty.
Hades then proposed holding a flying convention.
Amidst the commotion, the participants were: Saint Gilles, Motalian, Luojia, and Corax.
Yes, Luo Jia can fly. The first time Hades saw Luo Jia praying, stepping on golden auspicious clouds and chanting incantations as she flew through the air, his mind went blank.
Of course, those who see the Mortarion take off usually have a blank mind.
The competition began, and Saint Gilles took the lead, his wings shimmering in the air as he glided gracefully through the air, the wind gently caressing his handsome face and tossing his golden hair.
People cheered for Saint Gilles.
Immediately following behind was Mortarion, who—ugh—he, no, ugh—clung tightly to Sanguiles' back, flapping, no, flying, polluting the air of Terra. Ominous scales drifted down in the white mist, and wherever the scales landed, vegetation withered and died instantly.
Hades silently put on his gas mask, his only remaining eye stinging from the fumes.
Then there was Luo Jia, frowning, chanting sutras—no, praying—while riding on golden, rolling auspicious clouds. Beside him followed at a distance, keeping as far away as possible from Mortalian's polluted air.
After the race ended, Saint Gilles came in first place. People began to complain about who had encouraged Mortalian to participate, so Saint Gilles was egged on to fly a few more times to cleanse people's polluted minds.
Mortarion then went down to beat up the people who had just booed him, and Hades went to help the Pale Lord. They happily captured the Wolf King and then threw him off the rooftop.
I also found a corner for Koz, beat him up, and stuffed him inside.
So people all said that Motalian's flight was good, good because... good because he was good!
After spending enough time on the rooftop, people went back to their homes. This time, Ruth, who had hurriedly climbed out from under the palace, brought out his spiked mead and suggested that everyone drink his first.
Hades saw Mortarion's eager hand, which had been trying to pull out the poisoned wine, fall limply to his side.
It must be said that mead can indeed get Primarchs drunk, and in the midst of their intoxication, people started singing.
First came the Emperor, the ruler of mankind, who sang Michael Jackson's "We Are the World." Everyone who heard it was moved to tears, and they clapped and shouted, vowing to be loyal to the Emperor.
Macardo went up and sang "Queen of the Night Aria," and Hades was amazed that Macardo's usual voice could still reach the tenor register.
When Kolax took the stage, he sang "Asche zu Asche" by the German chariots. Apart from the Archangel, Kolax, and Khan, people subtly expressed that they had some difficulty appreciating it.
Khan went up and performed a traditional Chogoris throat singing, but because it was in Chogoris, Hades did not understand the meaning of the song;
The Primarchs stepped forward to showcase their singing talents, with the most surprising being Koz, who sang Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody," with Corax providing backing vocals. Hades had expected him to sing a similar song to Corax.
Finally, after several rounds of drinks, the atmosphere reached its climax. The mead had begun to be laced with Mortarion's poison. Ruth was chasing after people, trying to force them to drink, and even Saint Gilles was pulling Horus along to try the poison. Fenus and Guilliman were already lying unconscious on the ground. Angron tried to lift them up, but it seemed that the Lord of Red Sand was also drunk. Because his attempt failed, he instead fell headfirst onto Guilliman, who let out a wail. Koz was screaming and running around wildly in the high airspace of the room. Hades, hiccuping, drunkenly grabbed the microphone.
"Thank you everyone, thank you everyone,"
Hades said seriously, and then he began to sing, full of emotion, with feeling, all emotion, so pure that he had no technique whatsoever, off-key, howling.
Hades sang Andy Lau's "Gong Xi Fa Cai".
He finished singing with deep emotion, and the drunkards applauded enthusiastically and gratefully for their ears no longer being tortured.
"Thank you everyone, thank you everyone,"
Hades mumbled incoherently, then let out another burp.
“I have always had a great and evil dream,”
He gripped the microphone and spoke earnestly,
"I hope that on this day, the song 'Congratulations on getting rich' can resound in every corner of the galaxy—supermarkets, black markets, trading points, and material procurement platforms—everyone should hear this song on this day."
"On this day, a tremendous wave should resound throughout the subspace. The great god Andy Lau will descend into everyone's ears and tell them that the New Year has arrived."
Below the stage, the crowd erupted in applause. Hades knew that, apart from the Emperor, no one understood what he was saying, nor did anyone care. As long as he rambled on in a suitable tone, they would applaud him, and Hades, with great enthusiasm.
Then Hades continued, with deep emotion,
"I know that 1+1=2, Terra needs to take Apollo 3 to get to Mars, and Chenghua Avenue needs to be taken by Line 2, and all of this—"
"all of these!"
Hades cried out in an aria,
"—This is all part of the dream that leads to Macragge!!!"
A thousand times louder applause erupted, the people playing drinking games roared and cheered for him, and he was surrounded by colorful light. Hades, dizzy and disoriented, went down and took the glass of wine that Mortarian handed him.
【drink!】
Mortarian said, and Hades raised his hand to gulp, the thick liquid garbage poured into his stomach, irritating his esophagus. Hades began to feel sorry for the other food in his stomach; he shouldn't have treated them like this.
They started playing drinking games, and the participants were Leon, Khan, Mortarian, Ruth, Magnus, Vulcan, and Hades.
Guilliman has fallen, Horus has fallen, and Saint Gilles is now flying around in the sky like a glittering disco ball, nearly colliding with Coz, who is crawling in the shadows on the ceiling, several times.
"drink!"
Hades said.
The cup was filled, emptied, filled again, emptied again, and finally, Mortarian sat on the unconscious Wolf King, facing off against Hades one-on-one. The Wolf King was snoring; he seemed to have successfully gotten drunk—no, he had been drugged by Mortarian.
Vulcan fell to the ground. Hades hoped that the Lord of Fire Dragons wasn't waiting for his resurrection cooldown. Angron leaned against Vulcan on one side and Guilliman on the other, staring blankly at the final duel between Mortarion and Hades.
Khan sat down next to the fallen Magnus. The weak but addicted Magnus was knocked out in the first round. He tried to get the Wolf King drunk, but was instead defeated by Rus. Rus even managed to take down Leon later. In the final battle of the second round, he was finally killed by Mortarian.
The lion sat silently beside the Khan, trying to maintain his last shred of dignity, but it was clear that both he and the Khan had been poisoned by Mortarian's wine and were merely putting on a brave face.
They stared in disbelief as Hades and Mortarian drank cup after cup of poisoned wine as if they were going to die.
On the other side, the disco birdman was flying in the sky with Fugen in his arms. Fugen, with his arms outstretched, shouted deeply.
【YOU JUMP, I JUMP! ! ! 】
With a loud bang, the birdman collided with the bat, and the three of them crashed haphazardly from the ceiling, landing right on Horus and Phenus who were lying on the ground.
All of this did not disturb Hades in the slightest. Hades continued to fight Mortarion, drinking as he vomited. Even without Mortarion's warp influence, the liquor itself was potent enough.
Hades' consciousness began to blur, until all that remained was the act of chugging wine, filling his glass, and chugging it again. His vision began to go black, and finally, he saw Mortarian holding the glass, swaying unsteadily, then swaying slightly.
boom!
Mortarian fell down.
Hades let out a triumphant laugh, "Fill it up!"
He handed over the cup with the air of a victor, and then—
boom!
