How can a retired savior be considered retired if his price drops to 40,000?

Chapter 228 The Night Lords specially provide love to the brothers of the legion, you have to taste it
  Asclepius didn't know, nor did he care, what Fujimaru Ritsuka said to Decker. He only knew that after he returned to the place with a Holy Grail, the conversation between the Chaldean Master and the Holy Blood Priest had ended.

Decker still looked a little wavering and nervous - you know, a Space Marine would write this kind of emotion on his face, which means that in his mind, the situation he encountered was already very serious. ——But at least now, he has not shown any aggression in any sense, and is really trying to let himself accept this too... shocking knowledge.

Asclepius did not care about process. He does not need to know what happened in the meantime. His ultimate goal is to create a blood substitute that can alleviate the Red Thirst of the Blood Angels and leave the full set of technologies to the Blood Angels. For this reason, a Holy Blood Priest who is involved in the development phase will be of great help to the overall progress.

He didn't care about the specific reasons why the other party joined, and he didn't even expect the other party to really help him in his research process. He only hopes that the other party can correctly implement the treatment plan he finally came up with without any compromise, and bring it to the people who really need it.

——Although he did question the membership of the Blood Angels, and even before that, he also questioned the membership of all Astartes. But what he decided to do now was not, or rather, not entirely, the work he decided to do at the request of Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Some people are unable to work and live like normal people due to certain symptoms. Asclepius simply couldn't allow something like this to happen before his eyes.

  After dealing with such an unexpected episode, Fujimaru Ritsuka was finally able to go to the cafeteria again.

But it's a pity that Storm Frontier is only so big after all. Under the premise that most of the passengers above have some major or minor problems, it is not so easy for her to have a meal in peace:
  It did sound quiet in the cafeteria. However, this kind of silence seems very suspicious when it is not during wartime and before dinner.

...Don’t? Not to mention Asclepius who broke out halfway, she had just been freed from the intense mental work with Ferus, and she had not yet put down the tablet she used to take notes. She really needed a quiet meal right now.

It is a pity that the Chaldean Master, who is well versed in human nature, has a bad premonition in this regard that will always come true. When the door of the cafeteria slid open in front of her, she was not surprised to see three Midnight Lords who had come down from work to eat, with faces full of eating melon, and two Imperial Guards holding small teacup noodles that were very small for them. Watch the show expressionlessly.

Then, she walked into the cafeteria and followed the gazes of these people. Again (meaning this was not the first time a similar confrontation in the cafeteria had occurred), she saw, without surprise, that Judge Hastings and Sevatar were at odds with each other. The big eyes glared at each other. Kaelia, who was caught between the two of them, tried her best to pretend that nothing had happened, mechanically cutting the steak on the plate in front of her with a knife and fork - the remaining part of the piece of meat was almost cut into pieces by her. Broken to pieces.

Anyone with a little knowledge of the skills of observing words and emotions would not be able to miss the message of "Help me quickly" emanating from Kaelia who was caught in the middle. Fujimaru Ritsuka let out a long sigh and made a note to everyone else present.

The resentment caused by food is very deep: every one of these theatergoers is responsible for disturbing her meal!
  Responsibility belongs to everyone, but the situation is now in front of us, and Fujimaru Ritsuka has to deal with it. So, almost instinctively, she started from the focus and looked in the direction of Judge Hastings and Sevita:
  "So, what happened this time?" After asking this question, she set her sights on being forced to become a sandwich biscuit again (meaning that this was not the first time a similar situation had happened). Sandwiched Kaelia, "What trivial matter did the two of them quarrel with again?"

——Yes, the reason why this kind of confrontation in the cafeteria occurs again and again is not essentially because of the natural conflict of positions between the Inquisitor and the traitorous Astartes. After observing Fujimaru Ritsuka over the past six months, she can easily conclude that they only quarreled because they wanted to quarrel! Even small things like Savita entering the cafeteria with his left foot first today or Hastings swearing in the air can cause them to quarrel!

"How can you say it's a trivial matter?" Sibylla Hastings, who was born in Ultramar, has cooperated with the Ultramarines, and has served on the Psychic Council of the Imperial Regent, knows how to Use "civilian language" to whitewash small things into big ones, "Even the smallest crack, if no measures are taken to it, may one day shake the foundation of the empire——"

"——The little girl looked twice at the Blood Angels when she passed by the infirmary today." Yago Savitarion exposed the facts directly and ruthlessly, "To be honest, I don't see any need to do this to her. The need for 'behavior modification'."

Inquisitor Hastings stood up from his seat with a sudden movement. The complicated decoration on the inquisitor's uniform accidentally brought it to the spoon Ben placed in his hand, causing the metal tableware and porcelain plates to collide with each other. A little noise: "Kelia is my apprentice now. If I think it is necessary, then it is necessary!"

The person being mentioned visibly flinched.

Although Fujimaru Ritsuka once told her that as one of the important formal members of Chaldea, there was no need for her to be angry with a non-staff employee like Judge Hastings, but even though Kaelia was not old, the thoughts in her mind were Inherent ideas have already been formed and are not easy to break. Even in Parmenio's grammar school, the teacher-student relationship has a serious and absolute superior-subordinate tone - let alone this one-to-one form of inquisitor-master-disciple.

Generally speaking, the Inquisitor enjoys absolute control over the acolytes (or apprentices) who serve under him. This kind of "control" is even so strict that it is close to a kind of "ownership of items" - from a legal point of view, even if an inquisitor suddenly decides to use his acolytes as sacrifices to summon demons, he will The reason for being punished is also "summoning demons" rather than "sacrifice one's own acolytes". Of course, whether to exercise this power over acolytes still depends on the character and conduct of the judge in question. The good news is that Judge Hastings is not so inhumane, and Kaelia at least does not need to worry about her life as an apprentice under him; the bad news is that Judge Hastings has already With about one hundred and twenty years of practicing experience, it means that he has humanity, but not much, and has a weird temper. When he accepted Kaelia as a "student", he was not completely voluntary.

This led to Kaelia's apprenticeship career not being so smooth. Although Fujimaru Ritsuka clearly told her that "there is a problem with Imperial Inquisitors being approachable", this was not intolerable at all. She also tried very hard to "make Inquisitor Hastings less annoying in front of her" "This subject, but...

Forgive her, she was only sixteen years old next year, not even a fraction of the age of Sibylla Hastings. She had indeed worked very hard, but the gap in experience and way of thinking accumulated over hundreds of years could not be made up in just half a year.

Although in the first week or two, she successfully gained the support of several Night Lords, it soon became apparent that she knew how to mediate a trial among various hostile forces better than a sixteen-year-old girl. Guan Jiushao identified the pulse of the scattered sand and successfully divided and suppressed everyone except Sevatar. Inquisitor Hastings used this to formally establish his authority in front of his "not obedient" apprentice. Similar things happened repeatedly in the next six months, but they were still basically under his control.

——But the situation in Kaelia is not the "usual situation" between the inquisitor and the acolyte, and the reason why Hastings can only say that the situation is "basically" under his control rather than "completely", It is precisely because of this:
  Legally speaking, he can only be regarded as Kaelia's substitute teacher. Although the substitute teacher is still a teacher, when it comes to exercising power related to students, he has never been in the first place: the person who truly fully and thoroughly enjoys these powers over Kaelia is Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"What's wrong with looking at the Blood Angels more? I also like to look at handsome guys." Fujimaru Ritsuka, who had a low pressure, started to mess around - they just wanted to quarrel anyway, so the content of the quarrel was not important.

What she should do at this time was to divert the topic so that they could no longer argue, and remove Kaelia, who was being treated as a raft for no reason, from the topic: "Why does Kaelia like to watch Blood Angels but not you? I suggest you reflect on why you are not handsome enough."

This subtly offensive, purely female perspective, which had never appeared in the debate before, stunned both parties (and the audience) at the same time. The advantage of Astartes in reacting faster than ordinary people who have not been transformed is clearly reflected in Sevatar:
  "Are these cousins ​​of the Blood Angels handsome?" He touched his chin unconsciously, and the expression on his face was [-]% genuine confusion, "I don't think so?"

Although it was an obvious good sign that one of the conflicting parties was led astray by this point of view, Fujimaru Ritsuka felt angry for no apparent reason and turned around without hesitation and cursed:
  "Shut up! Savitarion, you tasteless thing!"

"Oh, Miss, didn't you already know that I can't tell the difference between beauty and ugliness?" Sevatar, who was scolded, showed a confident and self-satisfied attitude, "If you want to blame, blame the Emperor for being in Aspen The 'certain steps' set up in Tate's transformation surgery must have completely deprived us of our ability to perceive things that are useless in battle."

As soon as he finished speaking, before Fujimaru Ritsuka turned her head to the Night Lords who were watching the battle, the Children of the Night, who had already predicted what she would do, quickly jumped up from their seats, blowing towards them like a gust of wind. He walked to the door of the canteen and finally threw this sentence in the direction of their first company commander:
  "Fuck you, Savita, why are you trying to drag your brother into trouble!"

　Miwu (Leopard Death)

　　Obviously I overestimated myself, or underestimated the leader’s inhumanity...

　　It takes too many words to write in the text: Dead Apostles (vampires) suck blood because their ancestors sucked blood and passed on their blood-sucking impulses to them. In addition, the Dead Apostle's body is already dead, so it is necessary to physically absorb life information from the outside world to maintain the operation of the dead body. The blood-sucking impulse is also a necessary behavior to maintain physiological functions. In this article only, the Blood Angels' longevity compared to other Astartes is also due to their ability to drink blood through the Red Thirst to do similar things.

　　The true ancestors (earth elves) have the urge to suck blood because the template they referenced when they were created by the earth was Type-moon Zhu Yue (the "original one" of the moon), and Zhu Yue also has the urge to suck blood. Theoretically speaking, all the losses incurred by the True Ancestor during his activities are paid for by the planet, and there is no need to absorb additional "nutrients" through blood-sucking. For them, the blood-sucking impulse is really just a harmful "desire" that makes them unable to maintain rationality. They need to spend their energy to suppress it as much as possible, otherwise they will completely become a bloodthirsty madman. So both K and S want angels (?

　　As for why Zhu Yue, the source of everything, has the urge to suck blood, I think the mushroom didn't seem to say it clearly, but I looked at ORT and thought it was one of the original means of absorbing enemy intelligence and using it to evolve to deal with difficulties... Damn ORT is The one who can eat up the spiritual portrait and then hack into the Throne of Heroes to manifest himself in the world as a Crowned Adventer... Wow—— (Leopard cry)
