"...I promise, we will kill any greenskin that sets foot on the ground."
Hearing Xerxes' words, Kailo Alexei's eyes flashed slightly, and then he nodded slightly.
"That's good."
"Then we have reached an agreement? Mr. Alexei."
"I will help you build an army, an army that will make the greenskins fearful."
Xerxes clapped his hands vigorously.
"Okay! Everyone must meet any request made by Mr. Kailo Alexey! Any resources or money he needs do not need to be reported! Do you understand?"
"Follow the Holy Order!"
At this time, Kylo Alexey took a step forward. This action made many courtiers scream, but Xerxes suppressed his hand again.
"Does Mr. Kailo have anything else to say?"
"I have a question."
"Please say."
"I have told the story of the greenskins to many people, but without exception, all I brought to them was fear, so I rarely talk about those things, but I can't see any fear in your eyes, no... .Not even afraid.”
This time even Elena couldn't bear it any longer, and a clear rebuke came from under the veil.
"Back off, you rude fellow."
But Kylo Alexei just stood there, looking up at Xerxes.
"It is true that you are very powerful and your body is not similar to that of humans. Your slaves call you God, but you are not God - even if you know more than the people on this planet, you and I both know that there is no God in the galaxy. I have seen many mutants, but none like you... But this should not be the source of your confidence. Your primitive armies, although they have gunpowder weapons, but I must say that this is nothing Meaning, what exactly are you relying on? Even if you repel this wave of greenskins, there will always be another wave, and their attacks will only get bigger and bigger, endless, and you won't be able to hold on for long."
Any ordinary person would obviously be furious under his tone.
Xerxes just smiled and nodded.
"Mr. Kailo is willing to talk to me like this. I believe that you at least treat the people here as the same kind, rather than some backward primitive tribe."
"Everyone's life is precious, regardless of whether we are advanced or backward."
"Then as a friend - forgive me for using my own words, as a friend, I will correct you two mistakes. Firstly... don't make premature conclusions about the gods. Secondly, the green-skinned attack will not Endless, because a new force in the galaxy is about to rise, and they will be contained... We only need to survive the most difficult period, and although my army is still very primitive now, I believe With your help, they will make rapid progress."
"You said new force, that's——"
"Kylo Alexei! Shut up! Your Majesty, forgive his gaffe. Because of his childhood experiences, he often appears extreme and cynical."
Randy Doleti, the representative of the Rangers, couldn't stand it any longer. He stepped forward and pulled Kailo Alexei behind him, then bowed and said:
"Your Majesty Xerxes, we will do our best to assist you."
Xerxes smiled, waved his hand and said:
"I admire Mr. Kailuo, a true-hearted warrior, and I won't mind what he says. So that's it for today. There will be a banquet later. I hope you all can enjoy the food and wine."
"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Majesty."
——————————
"Did you never find out the identity of that mysterious man?"
"No, it is estimated that only His Majesty knows its true identity."
Sol crossed his arms across his chest and propped his chin on his right fist, seeming to analyze all possibilities.
At this time, a faint beeping sound suddenly came from the bridge. Thor raised his head and glanced, and then said:
"They're coming."
As he spoke, he walked to a console and pressed a green button.
"Thor——"
Soshyan's distorted and noisy voice echoed on the bridge.
"Soshyan, the battleship's energy system has reached a critical point and the flight deck cannot be opened. You can only teleport up. In addition, you can immediately arrange for a fuel transport ship to replenish it."
"Received, immediately——"
In the distant void, a fleet is sailing forward slowly and steadily. The bombardment cannons blast the larger asteroids into smaller and less threatening pieces, leaving behind pieces of floating powder.
If stars are alive, is this just like a massacre?
At least, that's what Bahram thought after seeing this scene from the flagship's spacious observation deck.
Many warships passed in front of him, their postures were like dancers.
He has made several requests to meet with the Chapter Master, but has not received permission. He seems to want an answer.
As he thought about it, Bahram recalled the continuous whispering of a certain impulse in his body during the Battle of Paidu. An invisible coldness lingered under the surface of his thoughts. This feeling had been with him since he fought those monsters. Looking at him.
Even though he was now very familiar with the feeling, it was still hard not to feel disgusted with it.
On the porthole, Bahram's image was staring closely at him. The square and battle-hardened face was no longer the childish look it once was - the battle left scars on his face, and the black and white on his head The alternating stubble of hair clings to the scalp, and the forehead has been broken and repaired several times, leaving indelible marks.
Bahram raised one hand and touched the aquila emblem on his chest with his fingertips.
At this time, someone walked up to him.
"The Chapter Master has summoned everyone. People in the company are looking for you."
"receive."
Bahram knew who was coming without looking.
Sabourin wore the same armor as him, except for the slightly different markings on his shoulders. His voice also touched Bahram's thoughts.
The 11th Company is a ghost, but no one can tell whether it is a ghost from the Chapter's past or a ghost from the future.
But Soshyan seems intent on letting the ghost stand in the sun.
"Sablin, now we have to prepare..."
"what to prepare?"
Soshiyang's voice suddenly sounded. His voice was gentle but loud, like waves crashing on the rocks in the distance.
Both Bahram and Sabrin turned towards Soshiyan. The chapter leader of the Astral Knights, wearing fine armor, strode towards them.
He looked at Bahram and looked him straight in the eyes.
The eyes were sharp and powerful, and Bahram lowered his gaze as he felt the whisper in his head getting stronger again.
"You've been wanting to see me lately."
Soshiyan's words were firm and powerful, and Bahram couldn't help but feel a sense of tension spreading throughout his body.
"As you say, Chapter Master."
Bahram said with a tight face.
Soshyan smiled, as if he noticed Bahram's nervousness, and then he looked at Sablin.
"I hope what Talos said didn't shock you too much."
Sablin's face tensed immediately, and then he nodded slightly.
"I can handle it."
