Stars for the good Warhammer

the other side.

Haven.

[Ideal City] In the administrative hive on the 27th floor underground, there is a hall that cannot be scanned by the detection device.

When a familiar figure followed Otto and appeared outside the door, for a moment businessman Abelard saw a hint of childlike weakness and excitement on the Primarch's face.

Under the gaze of the Honor Guard, the original body wearing the Armor of Destiny first took a step forward. After carefully confirming the appearance of the old woman, the original slow pace gradually turned into a trot, and in front of everyone The name he had read countless times in his dreams was called out in front of him.

"Ms. Euton."

The old woman who followed Otto into the hall was Guilliman's adoptive mother. Long before arriving in Haven on the Alliance's super-light speed ship, he thought it was just a mean joke, but now it has become The scene that had been played out over and over again in my memories actually became a reality.

Staring at the tall original body in front of her, the energetic old man in a white Roman robe seemed very surprised. She raised her skinny fingers and caressed the original body's slightly sloppy face with a distressed expression. Kong said the first words.

"You must be exhausted. You have become so haggard. You don't look like you at all."

Facing the woman's concern, an indescribable complex emotion began to emerge in Guilliman's heart, and hazy tears welled up in his eyes.

"This is in front of everyone. The original body must look like the original body."

But in the face of the woman's accusation, Guilliman, as the regent of the empire, acted like a child and acted as willfully as he did.

"Even a powerful Primarch needs a mother, you told me once."

After saying that, the tall original body gently embraced the old man in front of him into his arms. This scene made the ultramarines of the Honor Guard on the side quietly wipe away their tears. This scene will surely be remembered forever. in their hearts.

But while this touching reunion of mother and son was still taking place, Abelard, the Rogue Trader from the Sun Star Territory in the crowd, focused his attention on the silent Gray Wind and others in the distance. On the body of the mysterious leader of the alliance next to him.

At this moment, the two of them were just like audience members watching a play, muttering something in a low voice. Then they turned around and left the hall one after another. This appearance naturally aroused Abelard's vigilance.

I don’t know how long it took, but taking advantage of the brief separation between the original body and the Yotun lady, Abelard, as the special envoy of the Human Empire, quickly stepped forward and called out to the Terra Councilor like a proud big boy. Guilliman, who praised Ms. Euton, immediately made a report.

"Lord Guilliman, according to the Alliance, they obtained Ms. Yoden who was sealed in the multidimensional maze from the hands of an undead overlord."

The undead overlord Abelard mentioned was Trazin, known as the Thief Saint. During the Great Rebellion 10,000 years ago, he rushed to kill Ms. Yodon just before she was attacked. The other party was taken into the maze, and it was this unintentional move that accidentally led to the reunion of mother and son that spanned thousands of years.

However, as Abelard, who has traveled the galaxy and dealt with different aliens for many years, it is obvious that he does not believe this argument. How could those Necrons agree to a deal with outsiders?

"But according to our investigation results on the alliance during this period, the other party seems to have very advanced cloning and bionic technologies. For example, those elite genetically modified warriors are likely to be mass-produced cloned puppets."

When talking about this, Abelard couldn't help but cast his eyes on Ms. Euton who was talking to the members of the Honor Guard. Obviously he was trying to remind the original body that the other party was most likely just a person controlled by the Alliance. clone.

Unexpectedly, the original body's attitude was extremely firm when faced with suspicion, and he only heard the other party's rebuttal in an unquestionable tone.

"She is Ms. Euton, there is no mistaking that."

Not long after he finished speaking, Guilliman, who regained his senses as he stared at the Alliance soldiers on guard in the hall, had not really forgotten the mission he had given Abelard.

"I want to know what you have heard here during this time? What is the purpose of the leader of the alliance?"

After hearing this, Abelard thought silently for a moment, and then told the other party everything he had seen and heard recently.

From the current social life of the alliance to the construction of the military and domestic facilities, he reported in detail. During this period, he also focused on the giant space building located in the center of the Haven galaxy.

"According to our understanding, it seems to be a giant shipyard. Once it is put into use, according to the alliance's technological level, they will have a huge fleet in a very short time that is comparable to or even surpasses the empire."

“The Alliance wants to obtain a certain degree of trade privileges from the Empire. They want to gain priority in purchasing and disposing of rare minerals, and require a further increase in the Alliance’s import of ores from the Empire. In exchange, the Alliance will be responsible for maintaining Nakmon. Stabilize the German Corridor trade route and export more Stellar technology products to the empire.”

"In addition, the woman named Grey Wind also mentioned that if they were willing to accept their conditions, the Alliance would increase the number of hyperlight engines from 10 per Terra month to 20, and the factory in Chamuel would also share more advanced star technology with the Empire."

When he said this, the expression on Abelard's face looked particularly complicated, and it was obvious that he was full of anxiety about this matter.

"The Alliance is preparing for an unprecedented large-scale war. Those people claim that some enemy that is far more terrible than Chaos will attack the Galaxy in the near future."

Some enemy that is more terrible than Chaos?

Abelard's words could not help but make Guilliman tense up. Under his continuous questioning, he only heard the other party say two strange names.

[The Rectification Agreement] and [Breaker].

According to Grey Wind, the two enemies that have not yet fully appeared will launch a large-scale attack on the Galaxy in the near future, and the threat they can cause will far exceed all the previous cognition of the human empire.

Therefore, in order to better deal with the upcoming crisis, the Alliance will assist the Empire in quelling the current threat as soon as possible in the future, and the Empire will provide all necessary assistance to the Alliance.

Listening to the subsequent reports from Abelard, Guilliman's mood was like a roller coaster as time went by. In his opinion, the conditions proposed by the Alliance were too greedy.

In addition to the various monopoly privileges in trade and taxation, even in military terms, the Empire was required to actively cooperate with the Alliance's actions.

In this way, wouldn't the Empire be equivalent to becoming a vassal of the Alliance? In that case, it would be better to give up the position of regent and hand over the human empire directly to the Lord of Ashes.

However, just as Guilliman was still thinking about what the Lord of the Alliance was up to.

Suddenly, the originally bright lights in the hall went out, and then the surrounding environment changed together.

In just a blink of an eye, when the scene in front of them became bright again, everyone present was surprised to find that they were in the center of an unfamiliar battlefield without knowing when, and tens of millions of terrifying iron men were walking quickly through a charred land not far away.

The war engines, which were much taller than the Titans, easily annihilated the city. The mechanical fleets with strange shapes and hundreds of kilometers long covered the sky without leaving even a trace of space. The intensive orbital bombardment slaughtered all living things on the ground.

The picture showed the scene of the attack of the Suzheng army on the human city in the multidimensional maze. After witnessing what kind of terrible enemy it was, perhaps this could help the Primarch make a better judgment.

Help him consider whether to further strengthen cooperation with the Alliance

At the same time, accompanied by Gray Wind, Otto, who had taken the initiative to leave the venue earlier, had arrived at the [Prayer Hall] of the mobile space capital [Throne of Holy Light] through a Gray Gu carrier-based aircraft.

The reason why Otto was so anxious to leave was mainly because Clara had an exciting good news. As the door with a sense of religious ritual in front of him slowly opened, the girls in white long skirts in the sacred Holy Light Hall, like religious saints, were meditating around the crystal pillar in the center of the hall that sealed the soul.

They are the 72 [Hymn Girls] who have completed reincarnation with the help of the half-elven race and the guidance of the soul by the [Hymn Rune]. These psychic girls who believe in the [Holy Light] and practice abstinence and hardship are the main members of the Ash Alliance.

In the game, this is a race that has made great achievements in technology and psychic power. Most of its members are iceberg girls with silver eyes and white hair. Otto is an honest person. In fact, this is the main reason why he chose them as the playable objects. As for the numerical bonus, it is completely secondary.

At the same time, due to the special educational concept of [Holy War Heritage], each Hymn Girl is not only a polymath, but also a Paladin with high martial arts skills, and has considerable experience in war, which can be said to be both civil and military.

But this race also has a fatal flaw, that is, as a group of extreme ascetics who regard the affairs of men and women as a scourge, the population of hymn girls has never been able to grow effectively.

Fortunately, after the joint research of Clara and William, the success rate of using the half-elven race to make hymn girls has been greatly improved. I believe that it will not take long for those ancient souls sealed in the crystal to find their own suitable bodies.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, a leading girl slowly stood up. When she saw that the visitors were Otto and Gray Wind, the girls with silver pupils beside them stopped praying and set their eyes on the visitors one after another.

Soon, the girl wearing a crystal crown was the first to break the silence at the scene.

"Holy Father."

Holy Father, to be honest, Otto was not used to such a title. It sounded like an old charlatan, but the girl who called herself Alice liked to call herself that, as if she wanted to use it to prove her piety.

Looking at the dazzling girls in front of him, each exuding a unique temperament, Otto couldn't help but feel fortunate at this moment. Fortunately, his experience as governor and the experience of fighting wits and courage with the Grey Wind Juicer for half a year have profoundly honed his state of mind.

Under the reverent gazes, Otto tried to calm himself down, and then stood in front of them with a mentality as non-committal as possible, trying to maintain his image.

"How is it? Do you remember anything?"

Faced with Otto's question, the girls in front of him fell silent. As a race with a deep connection with psychic power and holy light, the hymn girls will not actually die.

When their bodies wither, their souls will return to the nearest [Holy Light Prayer Hall] and be sealed in the ancient holy light crystal. Relying on the guidance of the holy light runes, they will have the opportunity to revive again.

At the same time, these reincarnated people will retain a certain degree of memory in the process, and this is the main reason why they can become more and more courageous, just like the demons in the subspace.

"I am very sorry, Holy Father, we have been asleep for too long, and we can't remember anything except some messy memory fragments."

Otto was not too surprised by Alice's words. After all, if calculated by time, some of them have been asleep for nearly a million years.

"I don't mean to blame you. As I said not long ago, from today on, [Hymn Throne] will officially become a home for hymn girls. You can live and study freely here, and take on the work of educating new girls. You have plenty of time."

When he said this, Otto looked at Clara who was standing alone under the crystal with his peripheral vision. According to the other party's description, in order to obtain a longer life, she voluntarily abandoned her body and lost the ability to sense the holy light, so Clara was once ostracized.

In order to change this situation, Otto spoke to the girls in front of him in a calm tone.

"Clara will be in charge of your education in the future. She has made a lot of contributions to the alliance. I hope you can learn more about Clara's story, take her as an example, and learn her spirit."

Hearing this, the girls in front of him nodded as if they understood.

Just as Otto was still thinking about what to say next, Gray Wind suddenly stepped forward.

"The Primarch seems to have figured it out. The other party said that the Empire is willing to cooperate further, but some details of the regulations need further discussion."

"In addition, Michael has received news that the Cyberlux war body activated by Gerard and his team has ended the battle. At the same time, their exploration fleet has approached the coordinates of the second Temple of Time. They will continue to look for ways to liberate the Time Worm and go deep into the subspace field."
