Chapter 109: A New Empire Needs New Space Marines

Harrison walked out of Sivir's office and down the road to one of his rooms in Terra's palace.

He sat in his chair with a stunned look.

Although it is not early now, ordinary people have already rested. But at this time, Harrison usually works hard in his office.

But after a battle with Laurent, Harrison was not in the mood to deal with those official duties today.

He lost.

Although Sivir called a halt in midfield, the battle did not go on to the end. But Harrison, as a good fighter, how could he not know that if the battle continues, it is likely that he will lose.

Yes, the fight was just empty-handed. So Laurent, who has been transformed by super interstellar marines, has a big advantage. His physicality is too strong.

If both sides are heavily armed, then the outcome between the two is still uncertain. Even if it was just for Harrison and Laurent to each hold a dagger, Harrison's chances of winning would be greatly increased.

But there is no if, defeat is defeat.

It's not like Harrison hasn't lost. In fact, he lost quite a few times. In the past, when he was still wearing golden armor to guard the emperor in the imperial palace, he had sparred with many people who had served in the Forbidden Army's comrades-in-arms, and he longed for his martial arts to reach the level of being able to enter the comrades-in-arms after being trained by these people.

The Brothers-in-Arms are three hundred powerful forbidden troops, who are the bodyguards of the Emperor after he sits on the Golden Throne. They were selected by the marshal based on a series of criteria such as how each fighter behaved in training and in battle, sharpness, tenacity, etc.

They perform the most important functions in the empire. Therefore, when selecting candidates, the rank or veteran status of the candidates is not considered, but only the strength of their combat effectiveness.

The men of the comrade-in-arms would perform endless standing guard in the Emperor's Sanctuary, and even a little rest would be a dereliction of duty. Because the Emperor's Sanctuary is the heart of the throne room and the entire palace, this huge room presents the emperor's body and the golden throne. These Guardians stand motionless around the throne, ready to prepare for what might happen.

They were consumed mentally and spiritually, and even the demigods could not avoid this consumption, so when the marshal thought that a forbidden army was enough, he would replace him and replace him with another person. This is not a sign of humiliation, but a recognition, because even the forbidden army cannot endure this kind of work all the time.

Defeat was not difficult for Harrison to accept, and it was after many failures that he was able to hone his martial arts enough to enter the realm of his comrades.

But Harrison never imagined that he would lose to anyone outside of the Praetorian Army and the Primordial in a heads-up match. Even if it's a simple empty-handed fight. This made his heart fluctuate a little.

In the end, the emergence of super space marines who are physically stronger than the forbidden army may threaten the status of the forbidden army and gradually replace the forbidden army.

Harrison sat on the bed and spent some time meditating, adjusting his mindset.

The stronger Laurent is, the stronger the Space Marines will be, the stronger the Space Marines, the stronger the empire, the stronger the empire, the happier the emperor, and the emperor will be happy.

The forbidden army was in the service of the emperor. If the appearance of a super Space Marine is beneficial to the Emperor, then the Praetorian Army will support it. If the forbidden army can be replaced by a super interstellar marine, then it means that the forbidden army is nothing more than that, just a man of this level.

If you just talk about physical fitness, a full score of 100 points, the forbidden army is definitely 100 points. And how many points can a Space Marine get? Sixty points? Seventy points? No matter how high it is, the evaluation will not exceed 80 points.

But after the super space soldier transformation, they will definitely get a hundred, no... One hundred and twenty points should be played.

However, at best, it is only at the level of 120 points. If you score from a variety of abilities, take into account the Forbidden Army's extraordinary tactics, strategy, martial arts and intuition, assassination, counterintelligence, hazard assessment and death handling skills, and knowledge of various other disciplines! That's no less than three hundred!

After clearing up the relationship, Harrison was relieved after thinking about it. Begin to lie down and rest, tomorrow the Ministry of Internal Affairs has a bunch of things waiting for him to deal with.

In the future, the Forbidden Army may no longer be able to dominate the Empire in terms of combat, but in other areas such as politics, art, and education, there may be more Forbidden Armies who have emerged as leaders in their industry. They will continue to contribute to the emperor in another way.

...

Sivel's office.

"Laurent, what do you think of Space Marines?"

"A strong and loyal warrior of the Empire."

"Oh? Loyal? So if I want to re-establish the Star Marine Legion, will the warband agree? ”

"Hmm... I think there will be many warbands who will agree with this plan. ”

"If I made all the Space Marines subject to the management of the military agency's command, would they agree?"

"Hmm... Most warbands will obey the orders of the Empire. ”

"If I ask all warbands to surrender the conscription world, prohibit private recruitment, and all the troops will be replenished by the empire, will they agree?"

"This..."

"If I had all the warbands turn in all their genetic seeds, the transformation of the Space Marines would be carried out by the Empire. The empire provides them with recruits, will they agree? ”

“...”

Sivir's questions became more and more difficult to answer, and the answers were clear, but Laurent did not dare to say them.

looked at Laurent, who was hesitant and didn't dare to say anything. Sivir shook his head and said:

"I will never question the loyalty of the Space Marines, I understand what they have endured for them. But the new empire needs new Space Marines, and they must make changes. ”

"Lord Sivir, it's hard..."

"But the Space Marines have to do it."

Sivir looked at Laurent and said seriously:

"Space marines will get new power armor, more powerful weapons, and super space marines. I've shown my sincerity, and Space Marines need absolute loyalty to it. ”

"You already have the allegiance of a Space Marine."

"Is it, Laurent? If a Space Marine's disloyalty is done in order to assert his loyalty, is he loyal? ”

"I don't understand, sir."

"Destroy the evidence for the sake of glory, and destroy anyone who knows, friend or foe. Steal or steal friendly equipment and loot to arm yourself. Perform a gear salute inside the warband, which is closer to the Mechanics than the Empire. Laurent, too many warbands have their own little secrets. ”

Sivir looked at Laurent, who had a complicated expression, and continued:

"I can blame their past, but they need to change. Become a blaster with a "crosshair". ”
