Moss-green glow shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows that filled the room, and looking down from the massive star ring, Barbaros was a beautiful emerald.

The originally large room was now covered with cables and various parts, countless tiny dark black components were neatly placed on the ground, and servo arms hanging from the ceiling stretched out from time to time to pick up a part with precision.

In the middle of the room, in the center of a circle formed by countless parts, a black obelisk towers.

In front of it, Hades was dressed in the simplest technical sergeant's civilian clothes, strong muscles, and behind the overalls vest, a hideous mechanical skull stood out from it.

The Seiko backpack hung from the back, and the plasma cutter protruded from it, emitting a dark blue flame.

For a moment, the entire room was silent except for the rustling sound made by Hades in the center trying to repair it.

It didn't take long for Hades to stop what he was doing, scratching his chin with his hand and staring at the obelisk in thought.

He could have fixed it, but the previous reckless operation had only scorched part of the circuit, and as long as the cable was replaced, it was reasonable that the Blackstone Obelisk could be restarted again.

As long as it can generate an anti-psychic energy field, Hades can't use other functions yet.

Merely. The material that made up the cable was so weird, like some kind of malleable crystal with excellent psionic phases, and Hades searched through the material library and couldn't find anything like it.

In desperation, Hades had to choose the most stupid method, that is, to try one by one, and finally found a material that could barely conduct energy, although the effect was not as good as the original at all, but after all, it could be used.

Hades looked up at the blackstone obelisk, and he thought that with the right materials, maybe he could also hand rub a garbage guy version of the obelisk.

Okay, let's go see where we can get some black rock.

Hades stretched, refreshed by the long hours of continuous mechanical work.

He first pressed down the communication, intending to ask Kim to prepare something to eat for him, and by the way, let Kim inform the great sages to see if they could pick a time to test the power of the Blackstone Obelisk on Barbarus.

Writing a brief obelisk report, Hades opened the door to see how the work on counting Barbarus's recruits was doing.

"Bang!"

？

Without killing intent, Hades felt something hit his calf.

"Little Herrela, you can't-"

In the distance of the corridor, Kim was holding Harder in one hand and food in the other, and was running at great speed.

A bunch of question marks and exclamations on the gold display.

Hades looked down and saw little Herrela holding a bowl of noodles.

"Brother Hades, try it!"

Originally, the two children were to be thrown to the mourners and the other to the Silent Sister, but now the mourners of the Death Guard were still in Garaspa along with the main army, and the Silent Sister's black ship would not be able to pass for a while.

In order to prevent accidents, and to recall the various experiences in Barbarus, Hades took the two children first.

At that time, Motarian stared at the two children with interest for a long time, and almost scared Harder to tears again.

Afterwards, Hades asked Motarian why he had been keeping an eye on the two children and if he had noticed anything unusual, and the reply he received was quite Motarian.

"Because it's fun."

Hades rolled his eyes.

However, at present, the death guards in the Barbaros Star Field are quite busy, some are in charge of recruitment, and some are scattered, continuing to hunt down the apothecary Raton.

He had planned to call a legion servant to take the two children, but to his surprise, someone volunteered, and that was—

Gold.

Kim is also currently sorting out the various assets and affairs left behind by the Kirkland Sage, as well as taking over and maintaining various relationships with the Kirkland Sage.

Compared to the rest of the legion, it is already relatively easy.

Hades didn't think much about it, so he asked Kim to take them with him, and by the way, he could also ask Kim to give the two Barbarus cubs some imperial common sense, after all, Barbarus didn't have such a thing as a school.

As for the death of the sage, Hades couldn't help but sigh, but the sage who sent Jin a full set of materials before his death must have already had his own consciousness.

Death is common, and it will only become more common in the future, and in addition to the sages, thousands of cathars have also died on that planet

The smell of rice interrupted Hades's thoughts, and Hades sniffed, um. Familiar taste.

Little Herrella looked at Hades expectantly, as the elder brother had brought her and her brother to the Star Ring, and they had entered paradise.

Because the adults are busy, even the self-volunteering Kim is free-range in the mode, telling them stories for a while every day, and then throwing them into the dueling cage to play.

And they took the lightest sword and made a blind gesture.

From time to time, a death guard entered the dueling cage to duel, and the two children obediently sat down on the seats under the cage and cheered and exclaimed.

When the adults finished practicing, they would sometimes teach them one and a half moves, and then they would stand by and watch their movements, not knowing what to mutter.

Because it is a child personally selected by Hades, and the physique of the siblings is really rare, so the death guard is currently aware of the existence of these two children.

In a sense, Harder was the first recruit to pass this batch of admissions.

And today, when the two children heard that the eldest brother who brought them over had finally come out, they decisively ran to the servant's side, intending to make something to eat and thank Hades.

Hades lifted the bowl of noodles handed over by Little Herrella and took a deep breath—

Bad taste and weird taste swept through his mouth.

Why is there a subtle inheritance in such a place?

Hades wanted to cry without tears.

"How? Big brother? ”

Little Herrella stared at him with a sparkle in her eyes,

"It tastes good, you have a talent for cooking."

Hades squeezed out a smile of encouragement.

Seeing that little Herella was going to ask again, fortunately, Kim arrived in time to save him.

"Little Herrela, you have to respect your lords!"

Kim skillfully burst over, and the other accessory stretched out, dragging little Herret back and carrying her into the air, preventing her from continuing to mess around.

As Kim himself approaches little Herrela, the strange emotions that are familiar and make him happy begin to run at the bottom of the logic.

What everyone but Kim didn't know was that after the death of Kirkland, Kim found himself suddenly becoming fond of being touched by the anti-psionic field. This feels. Comfortable? And that's why he chose to take care of these two children.

But after getting along with these two natural children, Kim feels that he is also beginning to experience and realize another kind of life, what his crippled life is like.

All in all, even if little Herella wasn't untouchable, Kim would now choose to take the two children with her.

The child understands very well, and after getting along, Kim has made clear their personalities, the elder Herella Jr. is a rough and familiar child, and the younger brother Hader is much more delicate and sensitive.

"My lord, the sages have replied that they can go to Barbarus with you tomorrow."

Jin skillfully reported to work, and then decisively handed over the food in his hand, and based on Hades's performance, Jin deduced that the unpalatable level of the bowl of noodles should be in the column of "people and gods are angry".

Little Herrella was still trying to break free from the suspended mechanical arm, but when she saw her brother Hader, who was holding Kim, throwing a worried look at her, she grimaced and began to play dead.

Hades glanced at Kim gratefully, took the Death Guard's standard white porridge, and asked for information on the Death Guard's other affairs as he ate.

During his retreat to repair the Blackstone Obelisk, the registration for the Death Guard recruitment had come to an end, and they would soon be ready for the first round of selection.
