The blood thirst of the Blood Angels was a problem that existed when they were first born in the Emperor's laboratory. Archmagos Caul once analyzed the gene seeds of the Blood Angels and other chapters when studying the Primaris Space Marines.
He concluded that bloodthirst was a trait the Emperor intentionally preserved.
This is a problem deeply embedded in the DNA of the Blood Angels. It can also be said to be a shortcoming.
But so far, why the Blood Angels have blood thirst is still an unsolved mystery.
During the Great Crusade, Sanguinius spent countless efforts to save his Legion, and the final result was to transform them from the infamous Ghoul Legion into the Blood Angels.
But even so, the blood thirst problem of the Blood Angels has not been solved. All Blood Angels Space Marines and Space Marines who use Blood Angels gene seeds must drink blood at intervals.
The blood should preferably be human blood, and in the process of consuming the blood, it is best to kill the provider of the blood, or some other life, so that the Blood Angels can drink the soul together with the blood. This is the best effect.
Simply consuming blood can only relieve blood thirst, but cannot satisfy the needs of the Blood Angels.
Blood thirst brings not only a desire to drink blood, but its essence is a desire for destruction. It will make the Space Marines indulge in the pleasure of tearing their enemies apart and the pleasure of making their blood splash.
Their need for blood is not physiological, but comes from the spiritual or soul level - when they do not drink blood for a long time, they will become weak or even old.
Even Dante, the powerful Chapter Master of the Blood Angels Chapter, is no exception to this. This ancient and powerful Space Marine who existed during the Great Crusade is also troubled by blood thirst.
Dante has been suffering from the torture of blood withdrawal. He eventually developed wrinkled skin and white hair like an old man, and felt mentally exhausted.
When the Chapter's homeworld of Baal was attacked by the Hive Fleet in Year 999 of the 41st Millennium, Dante was mentally and physically exhausted and unable to lead the defense until he later drank the blood of a servant.
and killed the servant in the process - after which he was restored both physically and mentally.
If a Blood Angel cannot resist the temptation of "blood thirst", he will eventually mutate into a monster - with sharp fangs like a beast, walking on all fours like a gorilla, and with a face like a bat.
In order to maintain their status, the Blood Angels will drink bottles of human blood - usually donated by their servants voluntarily. They will mix the blood with wine and call it "Kalash".
However, collecting blood directly from a living person will be more effective - even better if the person dies during the blood drawing process.
As a sub-chapter of the Blood Angels Chapter, the Bloodthirsters, they have a ritual called the "Holographic Ritual" - they start by drinking blood donated by the Chapter's servants and end by eating the flesh and blood of criminals alive
——In fact, the death of one criminal is more satisfying than the blood of a hundred servants.
Of course Chen Mo knew this problem, so after the Blood Angels followed him to the Egyptian world, he had arranged for Ada Wang to provide blood slaves to the Blood Angels to provide them with fresh human blood.
After all, most of Egypt's current government officials and intelligence officers are vampires, and their demand for human blood is also huge. Egypt has long established a complete blood brewing supply chain.
Some poor people who couldn't survive had a chance to live at the cost of becoming blood slaves. In exchange, they had to bleed once a month to brew blood brew.
Although this sounds cruel, in fact the entire process has been modernized. Bloodletting is also done through blood drawing machines, and the blood slaves cannot even feel pain.
Moreover, every time blood is given, they can also receive various subsidies, including meat, money and other daily necessities.
The subsidy that can be obtained from a bloodletting can even support a family of five. Although the living conditions may be worse, it has become a means of livelihood for many low-level Egyptians.
After all, even if Chen Mo vigorously develops education and improves people's living standards after taking control of Egypt, many people in Egypt are still living below the poverty line and have to rely on this method to make a living.
After the Blood Angels Chapter came to this world, Chen Mo prepared a blood brewing factory and a thousand blood slaves specifically for them to provide them with blood brew to solve their blood thirst problem.
However, judging from the report submitted by the Blood Angels Chapter, this does not seem to have an ideal effect.
Blood brew can indeed alleviate the various changes caused by blood thirst in the Blood Angels' bodies and maintain their condition. The effect is indeed better than the human blood bottles originally used by the Blood Angels, but it has the same problem as the human blood bottles.
, that is, it cannot alleviate the violence in the Blood Angel's heart.
As time goes by, they will still develop a stronger and stronger need to tear the enemy's limbs and let their blood splash. When this desire reaches the limit, they will attack even if they have a large number of human blood bottles at hand.
One's own allies obtain blood by tearing off the other party's limbs.
Obviously, for the Blood Angels, what they long for is still the blood obtained from killing, not just donated blood.
Therefore, in order to solve their blood thirst problem, in addition to fundamentally curing it, the only way is to let them go out and kill.
In fact, this is indeed the case. The blood thirst problem of the veteran team that slaughtered everyone in the city of Rome has been well alleviated, and as a price, each of them tore at least a dozen demons in the city of Rome.
.
Therefore, the report submitted by the Blood Angels is more like a letter of challenge than a reflection of blood thirst.
They long to fight, to tear the enemy's body apart on the battlefield, and to bathe in the enemy's blood.
Facing this request, Chen Mo felt a little headache. You must know that this is an entire star battle group. If he releases them in this world and puts them on the battlefield of World War II, let them kill...
That scene was simply unimaginable. He didn't want his image to become like that of Khorne. When others thought of him, they would only sacrifice his blood to the Blood God and sacrifice his head to the Skull Throne.
But it's not enough to just confine them like this. They are all powerful warriors and should use their strength on the battlefield instead of being locked up doing nothing.
But in the end, after some thinking, Chen Mo came up with a solution, and this method could also solve the problem of recruiting troops for each battle group.
