Chapter 522 Rise of the Lion King: Prologue

In the deep space of the universe, in the universe, a huge rock is suspended in the void. On its huge body, between the tall city walls and the Gothic towers, majestic cannons are raised high. Familiarize yourself with the darkness deep in the starry sky, as if there are countless ghosts and monsters spying on the Milky Way in the darkness, ready to jump out of it at any time.

On this gigantic rock, the majestic fortress stands, and majestic colossi stand on it, wearing hoods and holding holy swords, looking up into the dark depths, starlight sprinkled on their faces, It's like covering with a thin layer of silver sand.

And under the colossus, there is a tall floor-to-ceiling window. Its surface is made up of colorful stained glass windows. It depicts a knight holding a holy sword. Above him, among thousands of battleships, Surrounding the center is a roaring lion and a two-winged holy sword in its mouth.

Distant starlight shines through the glass window into the dark church behind. There is no one here, the statues and stone walls are deeply buried in the shadows, only a little area in front of the window is under the light, and he is also under the light .

A man, an Astartes, stood under the window. He looked up at the dark galaxy outside the window. Thousands of cannons towered in front of him, pointing like spears and swords into the depths of the darkness.

He stood there with a knight's long sword on his waist, and the power armor on his body was bathed in the starlight, and on the shoulder of the armor, under the white battle robe, the chapter's emblem, The two-winged holy sword is also shining with a cold light on the surface, just like the church itself is as cold and silent.

The echo of footsteps sounded at the far end of the hall, gradually getting closer, the sound echoed in the hall from what seemed to be the darkness itself, and finally a hooded Astartes appeared behind him, that The warrior wore the same power armor as himself, and carried the same sword.

"Master Azrael, I have brought disturbing news." The hooded Astartes stepped forward and said, he stopped behind Azrael, who turned his head slightly to look at him, "Yes What? Mortes, what kind of news?"

"Luthor disappeared, my lord, he disappeared from the dungeon, evaporated without a trace." Mortis said, Azrael immediately turned around, frowned and stared at him, although he The head of the regiment is still very young, but he is still full of majesty. Even in front of the veterans of the battle regiment, no one will question his authority.

"He disappeared?" "Yes, my lord, he disappeared. When the Inner Ring inspected the black cell today, nothing was found in his cell. He disappeared." "He disappeared."

Azrael repeated, and walked from the window to the Emperor's Shrine, where he stood majestically, most of his body was shrouded in darkness, only a small part of the lower end appeared under the light of the candle come out.

Luther, the source of all disgrace to that Chapter, was gone, and Azrael knew what that meant, he couldn't just leave the Rock and disappear with those secrets.

Azrael looked up at the statue, staring into the eyes of the emperor in the darkness, he stood there, looking down with a golden face in the shadows, the Lord of Humanity stood in the darkness, as if, he really there.

"My lord, the Dark Watchers brought news. Before Luthor disappeared, he repeated a sentence repeatedly."

"What is it?"

"When the angel comes, the age of kings will reappear. The lions are waiting to be awakened. The sword of the king will be awakened with a roar. The lion king will rise."

Azrael fell silent. He stood in front of the emperor's shrine, looking up at the face of the emperor overlooking in the darkness. The flames danced on his face, "Where is Azmode?" "Vigilante, he A group of fallen angels were captured there, and they are being escorted back."

"Order Azmodai to give up the mission, hand over the fallen angels to the accompanying members of the inner ring, immediately go find Luther, and bring him back at any cost. What he knows cannot be known to outsiders."

"Yes, my lord." "Send all the members of the inner circle, the first company, the second company, and all the chaplains of the chapter, find him and bring him back"

Mortis bowed slightly, then turned and retreated into the darkness. Azrael looked at the person who disappeared in the darkness. He raised his head slightly, looking up at the emperor's icon illuminated by the fire.

He took out a candle from the candlestick on the side, lit it with another candle, and inserted the new candle at the foot of the emperor's icon, and between the candles, under the light of the candle , the winged helmet of the Lion King himself swayed in the firelight.

Azrael took the helm, turned away, and he stepped away from the icon of the Emperor, into the darkness, he put on the helm of the lion, and the snarling lion's Faces, gleaming in the hazy firelight.

Only the icon of the emperor is still there, gazing at what is about to happen, the lord of mankind, standing in the only light in the endless darkness.
