Chapter 276: The Daily Life of Astartes and the Body of God(1/2)

Around the temple hall.

They were the Gray Knights who were wearing the same gray uniforms or wearing protective gear for training, watching the newcomers take the oath.

Among them, six servants of God who have prosthetic limbs to replace their broken arms and legs and are over three meters tall will become the mentors of these newcomers after the oath-taking ceremony.

"very good!"

At this time, Artemis, who was leading the twenty newcomers to finish the declaration, stopped pacing, looked down at them who were about to become members of the Gray Knights, and said the last question:

"Then tell me! Who are you?!"

The loud voice echoed throughout the entire temple hall.

The newcomers who heard the inquiry stood up one after another, held high the Nemesis Power Halberd, and shouted at the top of their lungs:

"We are nightmares in another space, hunters of demons, and gray knights who sweep away monsters for our father!"

It took a long time for the echo of the roar to stop in the hall.

The oath-taking ceremony is completed.

The six servants of the gods led the newly joined members towards the outside of the temple, and Artemis and the gray knights who were watching also left together.

The newlyweds will be baptized by the water of the full moon. Afterwards, the servants of the gods will teach them about various types of demons and receive physical skills taught by the servants of the gods themselves.

Artemis and the others left the temple and walked through the square with marble pillars on both sides, arriving at a building that looked similar to the Roman Colosseum but was twice the size.

There is no spectator stand taking up space here, what is there is just a training ground covered with fine sand.

Completely enter the training ground.

The Gray Knights, numbering less than 600 in total, scattered and took down the special protective gear designed for them and the melee weapons for training purposes from the metal racks at the edge of the field.

Immediately afterwards, the Gray Knights began the most traditional simulated "competition" of 1 vs. 1, 2 vs. 2, or 1, 2 vs. many...

It's the kind where ordinary people are destined to die if they participate.

Not only is the attack speed unobservable to ordinary people, but there are also psychic suppression and impacts from time to time. Fortunately, psychic attacks such as lightning and fire are also prohibited by order.

This is also the reason why the Astartes will not participate in the UNSC, Auxiliary Army and Krieg actual combat exercises.

In fact, Umbrella has very advanced virtual reality, that is, VR technology.

The most common products for civilian use should be fully immersive viewing and gaming equipment, as well as online games for social purposes.

In military terms, it is used for simulation training.

But as the chief instructor of the Gray Knights, and one of her many titles, Artemis also has the title of "Goddess of War". When she does not receive support from hunting and expelling demons, she prefers this type of traditional training to maintain her health.

Gray Knights at their best.

Use real attacks, contact and pain to find out the weaknesses between brothers, improve each other, and improve tacit understanding.

In the afternoon, Artemis will discuss with the Gray Knights and study tactics against various demons.

When the time comes at night on Titan, the Gray Knights who have finished bathing in the water of the full moon will have some free time to rest properly or continue to discuss tactics.

From late night to early morning, there will be four hours of sleep time.

The general public and military fans and netizens are very curious about the Astartes' daily routine and whether they need to eat or sleep. After all, Umbrella will not publish such information.

But in fact, although the Astartes are transcendent mortal beings, they still need to eat and sleep when there is no war or emergency mission.

In order to maintain the best condition of their physiological functions, their food intake is much higher than that of ordinary people, and they also need to consume enough special "metal powder".

Adult Astartes who have completed twenty-five surgeries have a ganglion called "Capson" implanted in their brains, allowing them to control themselves to quickly fall into deep or light sleep, and even meditate to recover.

energy.

During the war and when performing missions, the Astartes could continue to fight without sleep, and the "stomach acid" produced by corrosive glands could use almost anything as food.

However, after the war, the Astartes also needed to be repaired.

Although they are different from the normal legion, the daily routine of the Gray Knights is not much different from that of the legion brothers.

now.

Artemis was walking slowly through the training ground, sometimes speaking in a stern tone;

"Colette, watch your right side! How many times have I reminded you."

"Ran Min, the style that suits you best is to move forward courageously, rather than to defend and counterattack."

"Sigis! Your..."

Normally, she would use words to point out and improve the Gray Knights' offensive and defensive flaws.

Of course, sometimes you can't just talk, she will also give guidance personally.

Many recruits who were selected to join the Gray Knights when they had just reached adulthood would inevitably feel a little contempt in their hearts when they saw that their chief instructor was the "thin" and "slender" Artemis.

It wasn't until Artemis personally taught physical skills, demonstrated, and knocked them down with extremely fast speed and absolute power that the recruits realized that the title of goddess of hunting was not for nothing.

Near noon on Titan.

The Gray Knights, who had finished their regular training, were ready to take a proper rest before heading to the cafeteria.

As for Artemis, who has been "humanized", although her body does not need to replenish the so-called calories, nutrients and water, most of the time, she will go to the cafeteria to eat with the Gray Knights.

Only this time, a civilian soldier responsible for assisting the Gray Knights came to the training ground and saluted her:

"Sir, the chairman will hold a video conference with you in fifteen minutes."

"Video conference? Okay, I understand, you go ahead and do your work."

"Yes, sir."

After finishing the conversation with the civilian soldier, Artemis separated from the crowd and walked to the office building on the east side of the base, and finally came to her exclusive office.

Immediately afterwards, she brought up the holographic screen to join the designated channel, straightened her hair and clothes, and waited patiently to ensure that her appearance was in good condition.

Didn't have to wait long.

The holographic device in the office imaged Sui Bian dressed in black uniform, and said to her: "Artemis, the company's supervision department wants to launch a hunting operation against demons with low threat levels. Sit tight and carry out the operation at all times."

Preparation for support.”

"Hunting?" Artemis was stunned.

Without waiting for her to ask why, Sui Bian continued: "After the Arcadia incident, those young people wandering between different spaces and the physical universe have actually noticed the existence of human beings.

Moreover, the current counterattack expedition is coming to an end, and the Sangheili family will continue to deal with the remnants of the Covenant Empire for us, giving us time to recuperate.

So, it’s time to get rid of those little ones.”

"Understood." Artemis nodded lightly and said, "I will make the Gray Knights prepare to hunt down those ugly guys."

"Also." Sui Bian added: "The three stealth-class warships built by the Zhiyuan Star Shipyard are about to be completed and will be sent to your Titan."

"Thank you, boss." Artemis thanked with a smile.

"Well, then I'll leave it to you, the hunting goddess, to support the supervision department."

"Do not worry."

"Okay." After saying that, Sui Bian took the initiative to dissipate the image, allowing Artemis' office to return to peace.

"..." She fell into silence thoughtfully.

After some time, he muttered to himself: "Hunting? I don't know what his strength is now, and when he will be able to enter another space."

Although Artemis no longer resents the Olympian gods and the fall of her father Zeus, her hatred for other dimensions is more than enough.

But Artemis knew that with her strength, no matter whether she still possessed psychic powers (divine power) or not, once she entered a different space, the result would be death.

That's why she pinned her hope of revenge for her father on Sui Bian.

Relaxed my mood.

Instead of dwelling on the past, Artemis sat behind her desk, then brought up the holographic screen and used her authority to detect the recent actions of the Supervision Department.

Not long after the video conference ended.

Located below Raccoon City, it is also the "hometown" where Sui Bian controls the entire Umbrella, the three underground floors of the Mother's Nest.

There are nearly two hundred researchers wearing white coats in the testing ground of one of the high-tech research and development zones.

This group of scholars, who represent the most cutting-edge in various fields of humankind, are gathering in the center of the venue.

There is Wang Zhaofeng, who still has a "Mediterranean" hairstyle, and William Birken, whose hairstyle is messed up and unruly.

There are also Birken's colleague Ziegler Cage, and Rebecca and Alexia who are responsible for educating the Astartes recruits.

The only special researcher is the plague doctor who wears a hood and a beak mask.

Surrounded by them, the alternative "experts" responsible for answering all kinds of questions are the memory storage bodies recovered by Leon and Magnus.

outside the crowd.

To maintain the security of the site, some of the elite security guards equipped with TPS power armor and laser rifles are led by Jack Krauser, a security guard from Rockford Island.
