41. Post-war
Blake was lying peacefully on a stretcher.
Son of Hades' warband mothership, the lights in the corridors of the Kokutes streaked across his shattered armor, his hands gripping his battle axe as if he were holding a bouquet of flowers.
No matter who tries to persuade him, he will not let it go.
Blake knew that once he let go, he would have to put it down with his bare hands when he was beaten later.
The pharmacist carrying him hurried, turning left, going straight, and turning left again...... Blake knew where he was going.
Sure enough, ten minutes later, he was thrown aside to the side of the dueling cage.
The icy white light reflected the smooth, slightly bloodstained ground on the duel cage, while the duel cage was dim, and the eleven black-armored men sat on their seats with different expressions.
At the front sat Buz Bella.
Blake was expressionless, and instead of getting up from the ground, he glanced at Booz in a lying position.
The old thing still had a false smile on his face, and the thought of his unfaithful appearance in the face of the Father of Genes made Blake want to give him an axe.
Behind Buzz were the leaders of the ten, and the eighth, Kober, was smoking a cigarette with a sad face.
Old smoker.
Blake thought,
"The injuries are moderate, a ruptured stomach, a comminuted fracture of the right forearm, two fractures in each of the thighs, moderate anemia, severe malnutrition."
Booz took the report handed over by the pharmacist and said unhurriedly,
"You know the rules in the regiment, little thing, stand up."
Shielding psionics and not reporting the situation of the battle, causing the leader to miscalculate...... Of course, there may be other reasons as well.
Blake slowly stood up, his cracked armor rattling as he moved.
He lowered his battle axe,
"I'm going to fight you for the first time."
At the same time, Blake said, the false smile on Booz's face curled wider and looked a lot more real.
"Fight me?"
Booz said casually, "Wait until you've won seventy-six games in a row." β
"My axe skills were taught by the Immortal King himself,"
Blake said, "If you're still wary of Hades, fight me." β
Booz was stunned,
"Radical generals, boy? Poor learning. β
Buzz decisively ignored the glaring-eyed old dogs behind Blake after Blake spoke.
One generation is not as good as the next! A bunch of guys who haven't fought anything good!
"I'll teach you what the agitation method is."
Booz coughed a few times, possessed himself, supported his leg with one hand, and spoke ruffianly,
"I will be responsible for all the next meetings related to the Hades, and at the same time, in terms of government affairs and foreign affairs, the Father of Genes has asked me - and you, you are just a casual warrior on the battlefield, and you can wipe out thousands of you with a single extermination order,"
"And I have a balance of at least ten signed extermination orders."
Well, now the leaders have heard that the Immortal King needs government and diplomatic talents.
"How?"
Buzz said calmly, he looked at the dried blood stains on Blake's face, Blake was expressionless, not like he was stimulated,
"I can use the axe that Hades taught me in a moment."
Blake said, looking behind Boz,
"Don't grind, old thing, who wants me to cut him with an axe first?"
"-No," said Blake, "Cobb, you come first, I've wanted to cut you down for a long time." β
There was a burst of wild laughter among the leaders of Hades, and the group leader next to Cober slapped his shoulder armor and laughed breathlessly.
Cobb blackened his face, knocked his cigarette gun, picked up his scythe and stood up,
"The family is unfortunate, the family is unfortunate...... I'll clean you up, boy. β
"Quick fix," Blake said, limping into the dueling cage, "I hope to end the fight before the Immortal returns." β
At this moment, the comrades-in-arms of the son of Hades still don't know that Blake once went crazy on the green-skinned big waaagh field.
Blake looked at Cober calmly, his eyes unchanged.
Once upon a time, he faced the big greenskin warlord's front teeth in the same way.
ββββββββββ
[Near Mandeville Point, a green-skinned ship]
"Me?"
"Why are you looking for me?"
[Because of the order,] Fugen, who was dressed in gray robes, said calmly, "The emperor wants to see you. γ
The front teeth scratched his head, and then patted his flat forehead,
"You're funny, you little shrimp, looking for us one or two," it muttered, "I'm just a happy greenskin." β
There was no sparkle in his eyes, as if the ascetic Fugen just continued his lobbying,
[You recognize it...... The being who leads you is not Greenskin, so why do you obey him? γ
"He takes us big waaagh," said the front teeth, "why don't we listen to him, the black boss doesn't fight himself, he sits on a chair all day and thinks how to get us to have a big waaagh?" β
Fugan seemed speechless at Greenskin's words, he never thought that these words were heard from a Greenskin's mouth.
The self-proclaimed sensible and noble spirits may not have such a ...... as this green-skinned Elegant in thought.
"Do you want to continue waagh?"
"We've found the most belligerent being in the galaxy, far beyond your race. β
The front teeth grinned,
"Again?" The front teeth sneered, "What is this called in your little shrimp...... Driving the wolf? β
It's not half different from what it does to you. γ
Fogen said that he suddenly decided that the task was for Kotz, not himβbut it was like a form of entertainment, and the Emperor was happy to let them do it.
"Ahh
The front teeth covered their eyes sharply,
"He is at least willing to treat us with sincerity, lead us to fight, and teach us to become more waaagh! Give each warlord a gift too! Why isn't he one of our green-skinned bosses! I see that he is miserable all day long, and it is better for her to be as happy as we are. β
Fugen's lilac pupils stared at the green-skinned warlord, too awake......
The original body suddenly realized something, he had an extremely ridiculous idea,
γYou were originally ...... Hoping to assimilate him? γ
The front teeth smiled, let go of the hand covering Doudou's eyes, glanced at Fugen slyly, and then covered it playfully, and then quickly put it down.
"I failed,"
The front teeth replied, "The black boss is different from other small shrimp and small cans, and it can also make small cans unwaaagh." β
That's ridiculous.
As he thought, he tugged at his cloak, and after the Elvens, a second race emerged that wanted to assimilate, or rather exploit the dead.
"You answered me,"
The front teeth said, "What was the original name of the black boss, but he didn't tell us in the end, and what do you little shrimp call him?" β
Fugen was silent, the original body looked serious, he stretched out his hand, and removed a black ring thorn bracelet from his hand, which was the only ornament on the original body, with a strong spirit style.
He took off the bracelet, and there were seventy-seven thorns on the inside of the bracelet, and tiny blood flowed out at the same time, and Fugen showed the bracelet to Greenskin on its side.
On it, a sentence was written in both Gothic and Lings,
"May Hades always love my spirit."
"Hades ......"
The front teeth thought thoughtfully, and the next moment, the green skin immediately became languishing,
Doudou looked at the original,
"It's him."
The front teeth hurriedly beckoned, and a green-skinned wizard dressed in a gorgeous costume walked over, and Fugen immediately judged that this green-skinned wizard's spiritual energy was extremely powerful.
"Big Marge, come and see, I know what the real name of the black boss is."
Damag nodded at Fogen without humility or arrogance, and then calmly glanced at the bracelet in Fogen's hand.
In his words and deeds, his expression is very much like the red-skinned giant he once was.
In 10,000 years, Fogen had never felt so unstrained.
"May Hades always love my spirit......"
Damag read it in standard Elven language, "It's a product of the Elven," Greenskin looked up at the Primordial, "and you're human." β
Fogen smiled indifferently, his gray hair dull,
[I can't help myself, this does not affect the transaction between us. γ
Damag nodded, "I offended." β
"What's going on, Big Mag?"
The front teeth looked at his green-skinned wizard, and the wizard said firmly,
"It's true, it looks like the Elves have been using our Black Boss for a long time - I think it may have something to do with the culture of these weak aliens who are afraid of torture after death."
"Oh,"
The front teeth grunted, slapped his head again, and let out a crisp "pop", "Why is the black boss so popular?" β
[Do you want to continue to follow him?] γ
Fugen asked cautiously,
The front teeth smiled again,
"We only pursue big waaagh, and whoever gives us big waagh, we will go."
Damag's jaw,
"You don't know,"
The Greenskin Wizard said,
"Under the guidance of the Black Boss and the Great Spiritual Master, we have already remembered the mission of the entire race since its birth, unlike the weak spirit race, we are willing to face our fate and mission, we are born because of this, we fight for it, and die because of it."
Fogen was sure that if he hadn't been firm in his heart, he might have started to sweat by now.
But now......
[Congratulations, I'm so glad you've found your way.] γ
Fogen said, "You already know the fact that you are being used as a weapon? γ
"Yes," said the front teeth, "we are willing to continue waaagh." β
[That's a little more concise,]
Fogen stood in the green-skinned garbage heap of the hall, rustically spreading his hands,
[I am also a tool, I came here in a hurry, just to complete the name of the emperor, I hope you can understand,]
"Say," said the front teeth, "we're also interested in the big waagh." β
Fugan blinked, he stared at the massive green-skinned warlord, he felt his mouthpiece boil, that chaotic presence...... Does He really know what he's doing?
[You've heard ......]
[Fear of abuse? γ

As Hades walked, the blackstone accessory around his waist rattled, and two new ornaments had just been hung in between, a silent Magnus stone, and a burning burner fragment.
By the way, the one he had around his neck was a lucky coin from Ogelin.
Kirkland was excitedly walking in front of Hades, introducing the technology of Faos,
"Immortal...... Now that we've made use of the neutron star, we've made the Neutron Shot's efficiency even more efficient β of course, the Neutron Shot's ability is only the most superficial use of the Neutron Star's capabilities, and this huge amount of energy can be used elsewhere......"
Kirkland led Hades to a large hall, which was more like a storeroom for all kinds of equipment.
Kirkland pressed his heels to the ground, turned around gorgeously, and spread his arms wide,
"My lord, it's all here!"
Hades looked up and saw a strange object next to each device, mostly sculptures of sages, and some of them were all kinds of small things.
As if sensing Hades' gaze, Kirkland hurriedly explained,
"This is the trace left by these scientific and technological developers, and Faos allows them to leave their own unique traces in addition to knowledge."
Next to some equipment, there is simply the sage himself,
Hades looked at the almost endless hall, at Kirkland and the other sages who were full of joy,
He subconsciously squirmed his mouth, wanting to say something, but was silenced by the scene in front of him.
For 10,000 years, the sages have never stopped chasing the truth.
Never.
If for the Space Marines, it is their duty to fight, then for the sages, climbing the never-ending mountain of knowledge is their lifelong pursuit.
"It's a ......"
Hades said softly, "I was pleasantly surprised. β
Kirkland stood in place, staring at Hades like a sculpture, in fact, in the entire hall, all the sages were staring at Hades motionless at the moment,
Hades raised the volume,
"You make me proud, you make me proudβI see you searching up and down in the long night, I see the torches you have lit, you have illuminated the history and civilization of mankind."
Hades heard the sound of the thought engine running rapidly, the sages were staring at him, Hades subconsciously raised his foot, and he walked towards the sphere in the center of the hall, which was a stationary neutron star model, and the measuring bullet bow developed by Faos stood out from it.
Next to this miniature model is a long piece of parchment, suspended in a static position.
This is the personal "trace" left by the developer of the measuring bullet bow
Hades lowered his eyes, and to his surprise, the main body of the parchment was a list of names,
The long name was preceded by a few short paragraphs,
[To Hades:
Hello, Hades, whom we admire, we are all the developers of the Y675 R&D team of Faos.
Four thousand and three hundred and forty-five years have passed since you ascended to Faos and gave us pure reason.
We, on the other hand, are the 675th R&D team established by FAOS under your guidance to develop faster-than-light technology that can get rid of subspace.
We look forward to welcoming you back to the bright days between us, and we will live up to your expectations and bring to the empire a truly free voyage from ignorance and divination.
The following is a list of the people involved in the research and development, (as of M39, [] is deceased):
[Alison s-76], [Jiang Qin 0G6], [o7y89]......
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
γ
Hades silently wrote down each name, and at the end of the parchment,
[By your grace, Hades, we have not failed, we have succeeded.
However, we are well aware that the advent of this technology will be accompanied by bloodshed, but we are ready to defend this technology, and we will live up to the name of Hades.
In the name of the Ohm Messiah, in the name of Hades, Hades, we pray for your blessings.
Let the light of truth drive away the long night of ignorance.
This is the mission you have entrusted to us, and it is also the last wish of our R&D team.

Faos Y675 R&D group

The white light of the model neutron star shone on Hades, who held the letter and was silent for a long time.
Finally, a very small sigh sounded,
"It's not you who thank me, it's me who thanks you...... It's humans who should thank you. β
Perhaps this is why Neos will never give up on humanity......
