The mountains in the early morning are shrouded in a layer of mist, which will melt like frost and snow in half an hour under direct sunlight.

Soshian still stayed in Thunderhawk’s cabin, staring at the light green screen intently.

Before the first morning sun rose, among the 500 candidates, 82 were "eliminated", 6 teams were completely erased, and 4 strongholds changed hands.

The life that was once alive turned into a cold corpse overnight.

Soshian are not cruel by nature, but as Saul said, they are in a phase of a full-scale war and they cannot tolerate any weakness.

But he also made a decision, not to disclose the results to the public, and everything runs only inside the Chapter. This may make the parents who send the child to him still have a little thought in his heart. .

Suddenly, the hatch behind him was opened.

"Soshian."

Saul appeared behind him.

"Luosha asked me to tell you that Governor Batis has applied to meet you again."

Soshian's shoulders sank slightly.

"It’s the fifteenth time."

"No, it’s actually the seventeenth time this month."

"I’m not asking Lothar Reply to him, saying I’m busy?"

"He changed the reason this time."

Saul walked up to him and looked at the display. Part of it has gone out.

Those black blocks are particularly dazzling surrounded by the shiny screen.

"What's the reason?"

"It is the matter of building warships, saying that they have applied for the casting template from the recent Forge World, and construction will start soon."

p>

This surprised Soshian a bit.

After returning to the home planet, besides conscription, the second important thing is to expand the fleet size.

His expectation is that when the first batch of recruits complete the transformation, the Chapter fleet will have at least one battle barge (Spark transformation), five moon-class cruisers, and more than twenty frigates.

Such a fleet may not be large, but for the sparsely populated Astral Knight Chapter, it is definitely sufficient.

And the most important thing is that Soshian understands the industrial level of his home planet. The orbital dock of Nathan 4 can easily build moon-class cruisers, and it can even start several at the same time.

In the history of planet, easy-to-build monthly cruisers have been produced for the star fleet many times. Only after the planet's minerals are almost exhausted, the production capacity has declined, and production tasks are not often performed.

But the production capacity is still there.

But although Soshian's idea is good, it is not easy to implement.

Because according to Imperium law, a planet is not allowed to manufacture warships by itself. It must be approved by the Ministry of Military Affairs or authorization from some organizations before receiving a template from Forge World for construction.

Although a template is not necessary for manufacturing monthly level, it is considered a process within the mechanical teaching.

If skipped, then looking for a mechanical priest for maintenance in the future will have a very high degree of difficulty.

So, when Soshian put forward his needs to Governor Planet, the other party told him that the whole process would be more troublesome than he expected.

Although Space Marine’s power of attorney can obtain a casting template, because Nathan 4 is not the legal parent star of Astral Knight, the governor of the zone does not have the relevant authorization, so they must do it. There are many tedious steps and a round of dealing with various bureaucratic systems to settle this matter.

Although Soshian is anxious to expand the fleet, he also knows the slowness of the Imperium bureaucracy. This matter, no matter how hard he can force Governor Planet, he can only urge each other from time to time.

But didn't expect, the other party's efficiency was unexpectedly high, and it took just a few days to get it done.

"Then I'm going to meet him."

Knowing that the other party must ask for something, Soshian decided to meet the planet's Sovereign.

"I will leave it to you for the time being, Instructor Sol."

"Well, don't worry about going."

After leaving Thunder Eagle, Soshian Summon comes to a shuttle and tells Lothar that he agrees to meet with him.

The location is naturally the Winter Palace.

About half an hour later, Soshian with a team of warriors arrived at the main hall of the Winter Palace, and under the guidance of the servants, came to a meeting room in the gorgeous palace alone.

The Winter Palace is the tallest building in Nathan Four, almost above the clouds.

Through the huge windows that have been wiped clean like new, the salt water in the polluted bay 50 kilometers away can be seen from the house.

Retract the line of sight, you can see flapping-wing planes and biplanes buzzing between various huge urban buildings, and the high-power headlights of rail transit vehicles pass through. Touli mist flickered in the direction of the apron.

Outside the nest city, in the gloomy yellow air, the promethium smelter discharges brown smoke into the eternal dusk.

The toxic waste water river surrounds those industrial areas. If it weren’t for the transformation techniques taught by machinery, these poison mists would easily cover the entire nest.

"God Emperor, my lord."

At this time, a few maids walked into the meeting room. They all wore blue brocade dresses with silk shawls, which fit most people. Requirements for "beautiful women".

They are holding exquisite jugs and wine glasses, as well as various fruits and desserts, including hot towels.

In front of the armored Astarte, they looked extremely petite.

"My lord, do you need anything?"

The voices of these maids are very graceful and tactful. There is no doubt that they have been specially trained. They just speak like singing.

Soshian shook his head.

"I'm not going to delay here, Battis."

"I have received your request, I will go now."

Bend his knees slightly and stepped out.

Soon, she brought in the host here.

Bartis Wayneisser, the planet governor of Neisser 4, is also the patriarch of the family that has controlled this planet for thousands of years.

He is a big man in a double-breasted brown robe, but his exquisite teenager-like face makes his huge skeleton appear less prominent, and his short dark brown hair is combed neat and tidy and shiny. Liang-There is no doubt that this person has used some life extension surgery.

Two bodyguards in uniforms with gray breastplates and a small beautiful lady in a dark blue coat accompanied him.

"Governor Battis."

Soshian said, gently holding the opponent's outstretched hand.

"I am the chapter leader of Astral Knight Chapter, Soshian ·Alexei."

"The ancient Alexei family is honored because of you, and the chapter is long."

Battis smiled, walked to his chair, then sat down, and pointed to a particularly enlarged hardwood chair.

"Chapter's long presence makes this place shine, you sit down."

"No, I don't want to waste your time, Governor."

Soshian said, stepping forward and staring at the other person's face.

"You got the manufacturing license, didn't you."

Soshian spoke very directly, which embarrassed Batis.

He waved his hand, signaled everyone else to leave, waited until the door closed again, and said carefully:

"Yes, I used some clansman pulses, and it was the shortest. It’s been settled within a period of time."

"Then, Governor."

Soshian took another step forward, said solemnly:

"You will find this month It’s because of me seventeen times."

"That...is..."

Governor Battis suddenly became a little nervous, and he took it out of his breast pocket. Take out a handkerchief and gently wipe the sweat from your forehead.

"Someone--"

"I see."

Soshian took a step back.

"In order to thank you for your assistance and contribution to Chapter, I will give him one last chance."

"I am grateful! I am grateful!"

Battis clenched fists with both hands and kept smiling to Soshian, as if a child made a mistake at school and was begging for the teacher's forgiveness. The majesty belonging to Governor Planet disappeared.

"But.

Soshian has turned his head.

"Governor, I hope you can also remember that we are Astarte Chapter, if he Persevering in this way, then his life belongs to the God Emperor, which cannot be changed by anyone. "

Battis's face suddenly turned pale, and Soshian turned around and walked towards the gate without looking back.
