God Emperor’s Angel of Death

In addition to bringing so many rewards to Astral Knight, the knight-errant warrior and ascetics who participated in the battle also received awards and rewards, mainly from the equipment of Mars and a small amount of battleship.

This situation is naturally happy for everyone.

However, as the Chief Chapter of the Imperial Fist said, the High Lords are not so easy to fool. While bringing so many benefits, the messengers also expressed the High Lords Council’s attitude towards the Alliance of Misery.

Set up, yes.

But it must be under the supervision of the council.

As for the level of supervision, what form of supervision, and who should supervise, the high lords do not seem to have a unified opinion at present, but first appoint an envoy composed of more than 100 bureaucrats to settle in the suffering. The headquarters of the league.

For this matter, Soshian has already prepared.

After that, Soshian asked another group to receive these bureaucrats from Terra.

So the nature of the entire surveillance program began to change.

As a Civilised World, Nathan 4’s history can be traced back to the Long Night. Before the launch of the Great Crusade, Nathan 4 already had a huge unified government and a corresponding bureaucratic system. .

In the ten thousand years after it was transferred to Imperium, this bureaucratic system has become more complicated. The figure Soshian obtained from the Governor of Planet is that there are about 180 million people serving as officials in various departments of Planet. And work in the system.

So that most of the policies have to be implemented, unless the Governor Planet personally supervises, otherwise it must be passed back and forth on the endless cases of local governments or bureaucracies, involving many pardoned persons. , Petitioners, notaries, exemptors, decision makers, consultants, council members, judges, approvers, document editors, agency agents, etc.

This may result in a great weakening of administrative power and a great reduction in efficiency, but it has also cultivated a group of super experts who wrangled and kicked the ball.

When Soshian introduced these exquisite work clothes, pot belly, greasy face to the "clerks" of the Alliance of Misery to the messengers of Terra, an unprecedented war broke out——

overwhelming majority Astarte's attitude towards mortal bureaucrats is hatred and hate, so when they face these people, they often choose the strongest posture.

Even Tyra’s messengers have anticipated how the Astartes will resist supervision, and this will be an important part of their future reports.

But in fact, they guessed wrong.

There is no violent resistance, nor direct resistance.

However, when Terra's messengers asked them to start keeping their promises, every attempt to implement the supervision plan ended in complete failure.

Every new arrangement, implementation of the plan, and the "clerks" of the Alliance of Misery pledged to mobilize all forces to ensure its success.

When it comes to landing, every time, those promises go with the wind and disappear without a trace.

Then those "comrades" will start to apologize, bow, and make excuses, claiming that it is due to differences in customs and language that have caused some misunderstandings and a deadlock.

Then the messengers were drawn into the vortex of lengthy negotiations and finalization of details.

Finally, the representative of Terra's Envoy realized that they had encountered an opponent.

And still their most familiar opponent.

After that, they tried to bypass these people and went directly to Soshian, but Soshian avoided all their meeting requests under various names.

Anyway, his coming and going is the same sentence, welcome to Tyra Council to supervise their alliance.

But the details are obviously not decided by him as a "wufu".

In desperation, Tyra’s messengers can only continue to wrestle with the "clerks." I haven't been to the Victory Scar fortress, so I stayed in the upper palace of Soms Nest.

And during this time, Soshian was not idle either. In fact, he really didn't just use excuses to avoid the messengers, but he had a lot of things.

Just contacting a few Forge World in the name of the alliance made him very busy, and then he had to deal with Mars’s demands, and he had to consider the arrangements of the recruits and the new batch of recruits. Selection.

Fortunately, things have gone smoothly so far, especially the recruits. A total of 18 transformations have been successful, which has greatly exceeded his expectations.

After that, Soshian will appoint Armin, who has been by his side, as the tenth company commander, and formally form the Astral Knight investigation company. It is not his own idea to make this decision. Almin himself is also very Hope to be able to go out alone.

For Armin, he still believes very much. Although he is not as stable as Ustad, nor as combative as Falzad, he has a passion and empathy in him. , Able to perceive the feelings of others, very suitable to lead those recruits.

As for Mars, after collecting the combat robot parts they wanted, they decided to leave with satisfaction, which also meant that Lysander would also leave with them.

On the day before leaving, they met again in the monastery hall.

Soshian paced the edge of the room, staring at the sunset outside the window.

There is a cross formed by the wake of an aircraft in the sky dome, which is lit by a floating defensive base station carried by a heavy-duty anti-gravity platform, and tens of thousands of tower lights penetrate it.

Suddenly, a bell rang in the corridor outside the room, and it was Lysander who entered.

It just so happened that the servants brought the food, and Lysander raised an eyebrow in surprise and looked at the pile of meat. After this time of getting along, Soshian already knew that this Imperium hero was standard. Meat lovers.

"Lysander senior, I heard that you haven't eaten anything for a day, please use it."

Lysander haha ​​smiled, then sat down, picked up a spoon, and bluntly Pick up the stew and eat.

"They are very tenacious."

He said while chewing.

Lysander was not idle during this time. In fact, he was very interested in the Astral Knights and had been mixing with the warriors during this period.

In order to prevent the opponent from discovering anything, Soshian transferred all the extra warriors to the Mark of Victory early. There are only 50 warriors in the fortress-compared with the past 33 people, there are more than those, Soshian It has always been said that it hasn't been long since they just transformed.

Lysander didn't pay much attention to these details. He would go to watch the warriors training every day, and he would also run to communicate with other Chapters, showing plenty of energy.

"Skilled and disciplined, just like us."

"But?"

"Too rigid!"

Lysander He snorted and chuckled, then swallowed the meat.

"I have learned a few things, the young man's sword technique is not bad, did you teach it?"

Soshian has no conscience.

"That’s great, but your tactical regulations are sometimes too rigid. Although the outside world thinks we should be very rigid, it is not the case. An excellent defender will never follow any rules rigidly. , Flexible defense is the way to win, which includes not only deployment, perseverance, but also counterattack, infiltration, and raid."

"Many thanks to the guidance, Soshian has been taught."

"Ha, it's nothing, but to be honest, these young men are awesome. Although your number is still very small, you will surely be able to stand up again in time, even beyond your past limits."

Lysander put down the plate and wiped his mouth with white silk.

"The threat Imperium is facing now is very serious, not only external, but also internal...Soshian, you must remember that although you have won such a great honor, you must Don't be proud, because there are a lot of eyes staring at you, waiting for you to make a mistake."

Hearing these thoughtful words, Soshian nodded hard.

"I will remember."

"Okay, that's good, then I also look forward to seeing you at the Blade Feast in five years."

Speaking, Lysander stood up.

"Before I leave, I will accompany my old fogey again, and go to your hometown."

"It is a great honor."

Being with me After walking around with Lysander and several other landmarks, the Imperial Fist company commander bid farewell to Soshian and boarded the Shield of Courage with representatives of Mars.

Along with them was the technical sergeant Rogers-his long-delayed Mars study abroad plan was also approved by Soshian and officially started.

So far, the aftermath of the new Badab has gradually subsided.

But Talos found Soshian one day soon and told him an unexpected news——
