Chapter 290 The Sixth Selection Begins

clap~

"Then, I have already considered this matter... The meeting has been temporarily abolished. Now, the food and wine have been prepared and should not be wasted. Please use them."

Tapping the table with her palm to attract the attention of everyone who was in deep thought, Selene picked up the goblet and said.

After saying that, Selene raised her glass and tilted it slightly to signal the start of the banquet, and then drank the champagne that was filled a quarter of the glass.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the banquet!" ×7

Seeing Selene's rare toast, Budd, Liwa, Afu, Azem, Jaghatai, Leman Russ, and Dorn who were kneeling under the stage all straightened up their backs, and some were flattered and rose to respectfully returned the salute.

Some of Selene's preferences are now basically no secret among the top officials of the empire.

He likes food, likes to try new dishes, and rarely drinks alcohol.

It's not that Selene can't drink, it's just that she doesn't like drinking, and she doesn't like to persuade her to drink. Except for some important occasions, black tea, coffee, and fruit soda are her main drinks in daily life and government affairs.

From top to bottom, ordinary people and low-level officials don't care, but the middle and upper-level officials of the empire can't ignore it. Finding out the emperor's preferences is crucial to their future!

In this way, wine was gradually shelved in the homes of some officials in the empire, and it became a drink that could only be seen at banquets. After all, no one wanted to leave an impression that drinking was a mistake in the eyes of the immediate boss.

If there is something good on the top, it will be great on the bottom.

This is an unavoidable problem in any social system.

Whether it is a slavery society, a feudal imperial society, or even a modern society, whether it is a small family, a company, or a large country, as long as someone controls the future of everyone's promotion or the distribution of means of production, these phenomena will definitely exist.

Flattering, imitation, and doing what one likes are all basic operations.

Some people may say that gold shines wherever it is.It is also true that as long as people have the ability, they can always find a place to use it.

However, if the person you are competing with is about the same level as you, and that person is more likely to be favored by the leader, do you think you have a big advantage in winning the competition?

Of course, those Long Aotian-style existences say otherwise, the above only applies to the vast majority of ordinary people who are involved.

...

Soon, there was a mess of cups and plates, and the music ended. Seeing that Selene had left, the chiefs of the Astartes Legion and the acting chiefs of the Astartes Legion who attended the banquet also began to leave one after another, leaving the palace talking and laughing.

"Battle Sisters, the new Imperial Guard unit, the establishment of the Tribunal, the three departments; the reorganization and reorganization of the Empire's land and sea armies... Your Majesty's big move may cause quite a bit of turmoil."

Walking behind Bude, Liwa, who was walking second in the line, stroked his sexy mustache, and said seemingly inadvertently.

"Turbulence? Humph, they dare!" Following behind Liwa, a rough, blond and blue-eyed man said disdainfully.

"Who dares to object to His Majesty's will?!"

He was dressed in a gray-blue custom-made legion commander-level power armor engraved with a large number of golden-blue wolf teeth and sharp teeth graphics, and a large gray-white wolf fur cloak was worn on the shoulder armor.

The 'Ⅵ' encircled by olive leaves on his neck armor tells his identity.

It was Leman Russ, acting commander of the Sixth Legion of the Astartes.

"Your Majesty is the empire! There are as many officials as you want, and if you don't obey, you can change a batch."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Leman Russ made a speech in the eagle-dog style that he was absolutely loyal to His Majesty Emperor Selene.

"Of course, Russ, I agree with your point of view, but we will follow His Majesty's will, why think so much? These Majesties have their own decisions."

As he said that, the man with black hair and black eyes, with long ponytail and an aura that was different from that of the residents in the middle of the empire came over and tapped Leman Russ' shoulder armor.

To some extent, his aura is very similar to that of Estes.

The whole body of Seiko power armor is mainly made of platinum and gold, painted with red borders, a red lightning double-headed eagle emblem protruding on the chest, and the shoulder armor on both sides is the emblem of lightning piercing the horizontal bar.

The 'Ⅴ' encircled by olive leaves on his neck armor tells that he has the same identity as Leman Russ, the acting commander of the Fifth Legion of Astartes, Jaghatai.

"Okay, okay, we're just eating carrots and worrying about them."

On the side, Azem, the acting commander of the Fourth Astartes Legion, dressed in bone-white power armor with gold trim, crossed his arms, and the old god said on the ground.

"I think, now we should return to our respective garrisons quickly. The word "Agent" is not nice. Training the legion and conquering a world is what we should do."

Dorn, who had been silently following at the end of the team, dressed in all gold and inlaid with a large ruby ​​power armor, suddenly said in a deep voice.

"Too."

"Let's go..."

...

"There are only seven legions... not enough."

Seeing Bude, Liwa, Afu, Azem, Jaghatai, Leman Russ, and Dorn walking out of the Schönbrunn Palace, Selene, who was standing on the terrace, murmured.

Among them, Liwa and Afu are both members of the Third Legion. It is not that Selene has never thought of training Afu to be the commander of the Astartes Legion, but his personality is not suitable. Afu is a very pure people.

Reckless man, martial idiot, and battle madness are all right on him.

In addition, Afu was originally recruited by Liwa, and Selene incorporated him into Liwa's command after seeing that it was not suitable.

"Your Majesty, the generals have already left."

After Bude, Liwa and others had walked a long distance, Jinsa, the commander of the imperial army, slowly came to Selene's back and spoke cautiously.

"Hmm..." Selene nodded lazily, "Jinsa, let's inform the officials of the ministries about the relevant news tomorrow morning. Morning morning..."

"Yes!"

......

In the early morning of the next day, the news that His Majesty Emperor Selene was about to rectify the military system of the empire on a large scale swept across all government departments in the imperial capital.

What is the rectification of the Imperial Army, the accelerated expansion of the Astartes Legion, the formation of three new departments, the reform of the Imperial Science Bureau, the joint reorganization of the naval fleet... and so on.

In short, from top to bottom, if Selene's vision is followed, the military system of the empire that has been passed down for thousands of years will be changed beyond recognition.

In Selene's plan, the garrisons of the imperial local garrison and the frontier fortification battalion need to be withdrawn, because there is no need for them to exist at all.

It's all in the collapsed dimension, who are you guarding against?

Now this defensive force will be abolished and reorganized into an offensive mortal auxiliary army to assist the Astartes Legion and accelerate the expansion of the empire.

After all, Selene didn't have the luxury of wasting the Legions of the Astartes on conquered worlds as vigilantes.

In the same way, the withdrawal and reorganization of the East China Sea and South China Sea Fleets of the Imperial Navy is also the same.

At this time, Selene had just finished the weekly court meeting, and the relevant policy directives had been officially issued.

Back in the Schönbrunn Palace, Selene sat in her office as before and made decisions on various major matters presented by the Ministry of Government Affairs.

The empire's military system is equivalent to being pushed back, and everything needs to be deployed again.

Among them, a series of major events, including the appointment and dismissal of the generals of the abolished garrison, the planning of the new department, the determination of the construction site, etc., all need to be checked by Selene, signed and stamped before they can be implemented.

Although most of the workload was shared by the cabinet, and it was far from being overwhelmed, Selene wouldn't let it be easy.

"I have something to do, but Alisa is very interested. I went to the South Lake camp early in the morning."

Spreading out today's document folder, Selene set her sights on the urgent document on the top layer.Seeing the content inside, the original plain expression suddenly changed.

"Dr. Fashion's report? The design of the Honkai energy particle energy weapon has been basically completed, and the first batch has been put into production. Please check your Majesty." Selene said in surprise.

Alas, it was conceivable during this time that Selene was unable to paddle for fish.

......

At the same time, on the other side, the sun was gradually rising, and the heavily guarded captives gathered in the Nanhu camp of the imperial capital|| camp.

"Hey, Xiao An, do you want to go out and see the outside world?"

In a corner of the camp, several girls in standard black and white striped clothes with numbers on their chests chattered about something. Except for the same eye color, their hair was colorful.

They are not very old. According to Blue Star's standards, most of them are primary school students who have just left kindergarten.

"Why do you want to go out? Isn't this bad? No one beats and scolds us for no reason. At least we can eat and wear warm clothes."

The girl named Xiao An squatted on the wooden bench, flipping through the books issued by the empire in her hand, and said.

That's right, they are the 'cursed children' who were captured by Alex's First Army from the dark world of bullets.

No one knows how the first batch of children survived. They had no names and were abandoned by their parents since birth. They were picked up and raised by sisters who had the same experience in the outer peripheral area. They were all based on hair color, location, and even is a numerical designation.

Here, although the empire still implements closed management, and the clothes they give are old-fashioned and ordinary, at least they are not broken, and they can eat and wear warm.

"Will those black-armored giants still come to visit us?" A little girl asked with great anticipation.

When they were about to be devoured by the gastritis in the outer peripheral area, those black-armored giants who fell from the sky rescued them, gave them food and clothing, and fought those ugly gastrula.

Although those black-armored giants didn't say a word to them, it was inevitable that all the rescued children were grateful.

Another little girl said excitedly: "Xiaofu, I will!"

Suddenly, "Silence! No noise is allowed in the barracks!"

Outside the barbed wire fence with metal barbs, the Astartes, dressed in iron-gray power armor and with the "Ⅱ" emblem on the shoulder armor, heard the commotion, and then came over and yelled sharply with a voice full of metal texture. road.

Hearing this, these little girls shrank into a ball in fear.

"Nian Er and others will not be held accountable for the first offense. If there is a second offense, he will be punished heavily!" There was no sympathy at all.

After all, the Astartes warriors on patrol just glanced at the group of little girls, didn't pay much attention to them, turned around and continued walking towards the next area.

Hearing the movement, the girls who also went out for a walk not far away also squatted down with their heads in their hands. Whenever the giant-like gray armored Astartes patrolled past, their bodies couldn't stop shaking.

"..." The girls dared to stand up only after the Gray Armored Astartes warriors moved away.

Except for a small number of existences, in the eyes of most of the Imperial Army including the Astartes Legion, they don't talk about "fairness, fairness, or fairness" in their three views.

Captives are equivalent to slaves, a currency that can be consumed.

"Xiaofu, I'm afraid...will I be killed?" Involuntarily, these scolded girls rolled their tears and said in fear.

Even though the 'cursed children' have great potential, but they haven't fulfilled their potential at this time, it's normal to be frightened and cry in the face of Astartes warriors full of evil spirits.

Normally speaking, it is just a mortal prison camp, and it is impossible to have Astartes warriors to guard it, but the location of this prison camp is in the imperial capital Nanhu Camp!

"If you make noise again, you will be labeled as non-compliant and eliminated. As for what elimination is, I don't need to say."

Following the prestige, looking at the middle-aged guard in the uniform of the Imperial Army behind him, the girls said timidly: "I'm sorry, Lord Warden, we have caused you trouble."

"My lord? I don't have the right to be called that by you. The higher-ups have issued a policy. The selection of 'Battle Sisters' is about to start, and it's from among you."

"Then, if the selection is successful. Sir Warden, can we meet those black-armored giants again? The gray-armored giants here are too scary."

Hearing this, the middle-aged guard couldn't help being a little dumbfounded. The black-armored giant these girls are talking about should be the First Legion of Astartes. General Alex is indeed more friendly to the people and has no pretensions to mortals.

And these Astartes warriors of the Second Legion are directly led by General Bude, and he is too familiar with the strictness of the general's military management. He was born in the Imperial Guard.

Influenced by the direct leader, the atmosphere of the Second Legion is much more serious than that of the First Legion. The style of doing things is vigorous and meticulous, rigid and strict, strictly following all the emperor's will, and putting an end to all emotions outside of the mission.

"As long as you pass the selection, everything is possible...Maybe when we meet again, I will call you adults."

"I will take you to a place in a while, don't ask where it is, don't say anything you see, strictly follow the etiquette you have learned recently!"

As he said that, ignoring the joyful looks of the girls, the middle-aged guard waved them to follow and continued walking outside.

Passing through the playground, under the watchful eyes of many mortal guards, following behind the middle-aged guards, these girls walked out of the tall fortress walls for the first time and saw the outside world.

Oncoming, it is a gorgeous castle wall, arched stained glass windows are everywhere, and the most central and largest stained glass window has attracted everyone's attention.

"Master Warden, what is that?"

"That's our Emperor."
