Stars for the good Warhammer

"What do you think of those things?"

While speaking, Gerald motioned Loli to look towards the memorial tower outside the window with his eyes. He lowered his voice in order not to attract the attention of outsiders as much as possible.

After seeing the long sword emblem wrapped in flames printed on the tower, Loli understood that what the other party was talking about was referring to the Ashes Alliance.

"Isn't it great? At least those gangs that went down to their nests have basically been wiped out."

When she said this, Loli's tone gradually became depressed and her eyes looking out the window also became dim. Although she was only a teenager, the other person didn't look like a kid at all.

As a street child who has lived in the slums of Xiachao, where she was born from a prostitute, death and suffering were destined to be with this girl forever from almost the moment she landed.

Soon after they learned to walk, these children who were unfortunate enough to be born in slums would be beaten and scolded by gang members, pulling old cars like cockroaches through the heavily polluted garbage dump.

Use your body size to collect scrap parts that are stuck in pipes and are difficult for adults to collect. Some older children will be driven to the front lines of gang wars to undertake dangerous transportation work. For the residents, this is their daily life, and the only thing that can bring comfort in this difficult life is the emperor's blessing.

"Before coming to see you, I made a special trip back to take a look at the place where I used to live."

When she said this, Luo Li, who was holding her chin in one hand, smiled, and then took out a folded drawing paper from her pocket. After unfolding it, she saw that it was a drawing made by a child with colored pens. Drawn doodle.

"I met the children who used to live with me, and those brats still call me eldest sister today."

"They told me that the men in armor took them to a new residence, which was a big, clean house. The children of the entire neighborhood were gathered there and a talking computer took care of their lives and Teach them new things so they never have to work in a dump again until they're fourteen."

However, shortly after the words fell, Luo Li gradually became silent, after hesitating for about three seconds.

"Do you know what I was thinking at that time?"

"Are you happy for them?"

"No, I hate them."

The girl's tone was so calm. As she spoke, she raised her head again and laid her eyes on the silent Gerald.

"I hated them all, and seeing them smiling so happily made me want to do something terrible to them for a moment."

"Why? Why don't they have to be like us?"

After an unknown amount of time passed like this, Loli took a deep breath and calmed down her somewhat out-of-control emotions.

"But I know for a fact that I'm just jealous of those guys."

"In fact, even now, I often can't help but think that if the people from the Alliance had arrived here earlier, if all this had changed earlier, maybe the rebellion caused by the sculptor would not have happened. Maybe Lily would have His death would not have been so miserable."

Lily, that was Loli's former friend. It was because she witnessed the tragic death of her friend that she was able to activate the psychic talent in her body. She eventually fought her way through the neighborhood and finally collided with Gerald and his group. .

For a moment, after pushing his unfinished portion of steak in front of the big man along with the dinner plate, the girl continued to speak.

"So now I want to understand a truth. Whether it is the emperor sitting on the golden throne or the mysterious Lord of Ashes, all I want is a better life. I believe that most people Everyone should think the same as me, maybe the Ashes League can really do this and they can really bring about a change in all this.”

When talking about this, Loli's eyes obviously became much firmer than before.

"I want to bring changes to those bad things, which is why I agreed to work for Governor Otto. With your help, I believe my task will be much easier."

Shortly after she finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something, and heard Loli suddenly ask Gerald across the table again.

"Speaking of which, I heard someone say that Governor Otto was the first imperial official to respond to the alliance. Now that gentleman has become the chairman of the alliance's parliament. Is that right?"

In response, the veteran just sighed.

"You are right. Also joining were the Mechanical Magus of Ota, who was appointed as the Minister of Technology, and the female governor of Cologne III. It is said that the lady became the special envoy of the alliance and is responsible for communicating with those in the Dealing with the governor with a swaying attitude.”

"And people outside are now spreading rumors that the Governor has accepted the instructions from the Lord of Ashes and plans to launch a great expedition in the near future to take back all the planets that refuse the rule of the Alliance and are falling into the threat of aliens and chaos."

"You should have seen it when you came here. Those recruitment advertisements with slogans. I have to admit that the words written on them are really brainwashing. I'm afraid the threshold of those recruitment offices will be stepped on."

"anyway."

"Originally, I planned to find an opportunity to return to the Thirteenth Regiment of Consquite, but now it's better."

"So are we now considered to have joined the federal army?"

But when she heard this, the girl named Luo Li just frowned in confusion.

"Federal Army?"

"You don't know? That Governor Otto has long disclosed his military reform plan. Now there are no such establishments as the Astra Militarum and the Imperial Navy in Haiwen. All the troops have been divided into the Federation Army system. Including the Skitarii of the Adeptus Mechanicus, and even the gang members of the Vicious Dogs."

Seeing the confused expression on the other party's face, Gerald was a little panicked now.

"Wait a minute. Is our recycling team just unorganized temporary workers?"

"What about wages? What about the vacation system? How to solve the supply problem? We can't make a fortune on our own like the Thirteenth Regiment, right?"

While talking, the veteran stood up from the table.

"I don't know whether it is organized or not. Anyway, the governor said that from now on we will only be responsible for him."

"As for the rest, we can go find Turalyon together after calling Mardor. He will set off with us then. If you have any questions, just ask the uncle after that."

"Oh right~"

"Before that, Lord Otto wants us to go to the [Gene Clinic]."

"Gene clinic? What does that do?"

In response, Loli just looked out the window again with a calm face.

"Who knows, it will be clear after we go there."

"By the way, you can also see what this place has become."
