Chapter 63, What to save?
It’s hard to say whether Gu Hang’s first meeting with Martins was good or bad.
After saying that, both of them were disappointed in their hearts.
But if they had to say bad things, they unanimously put away their disappointment and communicated with each other smoothly.
The Governor's expression is always smiling, which makes people feel like spring breeze. Martins and the Space Marines under his command always maintain a cold and stern expression, but this is their style, they have always been like this.
Gu Hang was like this because he had calmed down. The Phoenix Chapter was much more disabled than he had imagined. Although he was a little disappointed, even if there were only seven people, they were still seven extremely tough men. He was even thinking
, he now has more than a thousand soldiers under his command. Plus he is a psyker. Can they defeat these seven soldiers head-on?
Very slim.
What else is there to say? These seven Space Marines are still a decisive force.
What's more, if this war group is really not very disabled, with a hundred people, one or two large starships, and a large group of mortal auxiliary troops, what else will it have to do with itself? I'm afraid he will be the governor by then.
If you want to be set up by someone else's Chapter Leader, it would be good to be the Logistics Manager.
On the contrary, the chances are higher.
In contrast, Gu Hang was more curious about the attitude of the Phoenix Chapter leader who called himself Martins.
The content of the chat between the two of them, at best, was about getting to know each other, at worst, it was just nonsense. In short, what they talked about at the moment were all useless topics. Then why, this is the chapter leader
Although he kept a sullen face, he still kept patiently talking to him about these things?
Even when he asked about some of their past experiences, Gu Hang could feel that the leader of the Martins Chapter was resisting in his heart, as if he didn't want to answer such questions. However, just as Gu Hang
Just when Hang felt that his question was a bit rash, he heard the leader of the Martins Chapter follow Gu Hang's words and talk about their situation and battle conditions over the years.
This is a bit strange.
Generally speaking, these emperor's angels of death are not talkative - it's not that they don't know how to chat, but that they usually treat themselves separately from the so-called mortals.
They always consider themselves to be the descendants of the Emperor, inheriting the Emperor's genes, and being the Emperor's angels. Although they are from humans, they are transcendent from humans. Some of them are friendly to mortals, and some are cruel to mortals.
, some ignore mortals... But no matter what the attitude is, even if it is well-intentioned, it is a kind of kindness from above, and it is the charity of angels to mortals.
Under normal circumstances, if I were to talk about something unpleasant about the chapter leader, not to mention he would get furious, or at least frown, refuse to answer or change the subject, that would be normal.
He pinched his nose and answered, which seemed to reflect a certain attitude of the Chapter Leader.
Why is that?
I am asking for something from you, could it be that... you are also asking for something from me?
What do you want?
Gu Hang recalled the words in the description of the incident.
[A Space Marine Chapter that is about to be destroyed has ended its Centennial Atonement Crusade and is approaching the Raging Star. It seems that they are looking for redemption and hope here. 】
About to be destroyed, looking for redemption and hope...
Oh, you want to rebuild the war group, you need my help, right?
But why me?
I'm so broke here, and I don't look like I can help you rebuild the war group, right?
Is it the function of the system again? The system makes you believe that I can help you?
The key system doesn't tell me how to help?
While Gu Hang was smiling broadly and maintaining communication with Martins in a sincere and dignified manner, he was feeling quite panicked.
However, as they chatted, Gu Hang slowly let go of these thoughts and gradually became fascinated by what Martins told him.
Martins' account was not systematic. He just told fragments of the missions they had performed during the Atonement Crusade.
but……
Perform gang-hopping missions on the battlefield of the star sea with heavy artillery fire, kill generals and seize ships; go deep into enemy formations alone and destroy heavy firepower positions; rush into enemy nests and eliminate the heretics and traitors entrenched in them; face huge alien beasts, kill them
Lower your head...
Those achievements all sound so legendary.
Gu Hang let out a long sigh and said: "Captain Martins, your experience is so touching. No matter what others think, at least I think that no matter what you have done and how big a crime you have committed,
, now that you have all redeemed yourself, the Emperor will never blame you again. You are great heroes, and you should not wander aimlessly in the sea of stars."
After a pause, Gu Hang continued: "Although the conditions here are not very good, if you don't mind, I am willing to provide a place for the Phoenix Chapter. You can rest here at any time and get supplies. I
I know it may be a bit arrogant to say this, but if you are willing, Raging Owl is also willing to be your second home. My door is open to you at any time."
At this point, Gu Hang had turned around and was facing the Chapter Leader who was much taller than him.
When they looked at each other, he looked calm, sincere and enthusiastic.
But Martins hesitated.
As an angel of the God Emperor, he avoided the eyes of a mortal.
"Thank you very much for your kindness, Your Majesty the Governor, but I need to think about it again."
…
In the camp, Gu Hang had sent people to temporarily clear out a house for the Phoenix battle group to live in.
Their bodies are too tall, and they look like seven little giants. Houses built with normal human needs are a bit low and cramped for them.
But there is nothing we can do about it, given this condition.
Fortunately, they don't put too many requirements on living conditions.
Although they were in a safe environment in theory, none of the seven warriors took off their armor. At most, they only took off their helmets.
They were sitting together at the moment. There was a soldier with a bald square face and three golden service nails on his forehead. He said in a low voice: "Captain Martins, I don't understand why you just treated that mortal
So polite?"
"Brother Schneider, we all fight for the God-Emperor and are his subjects. We should not be too proud. We should maintain the most basic respect for a planetary governor."
"But I don't think so. Chapter leader, do you still think this mortal is the hope to save the chapter? A mortal, a governor of a ruined world, who can't even control his planet, has what ability to help us rebuild the entire chapter?
?We are wasting our time here!"
Schneider's attitude was hardly respectful.
He touched the service nail on his forehead, which was a source of pride for him.
One golden service nail represents a Space Marine who has served the Chapter for one hundred years. Three golden service nails represent that he is a three-hundred-year-old veteran. He has always considered himself to be better than the younger Martins.
Qualified for the position of Chapter Leader.
But when he took over as chapter leader, he handed over the heavy responsibility to Martins.
He wished he could have followed the chapter leader and fought to the death, rather than being led by Martins now - of course, he was actually even more unwilling to suffer the confusion of not knowing what to do now.
He knows that the current Phoenix Chapter has no room for fighting for power, and they need to unite. Although he does not approve of Martins as the leader of the Chapter, he will obey orders unconditionally, which is the duty of a warrior.
.
However, before the order is issued and the matter is still in the discussion stage, he will not be polite. He will ask what is on his mind straightforwardly and without any scruples.
And he also believed that this doubt was not only in his own mind, but also in the minds of other battle brothers.
