Chapter 50 Harvest Day


Chapter 50 Harvest Day

"Chapter Leader."

When walking out of Warehouse No. 1, workers and servitors on the track were already moving the materials in Warehouse No. 3. Space Marines also came to the warehouse to make sure nothing was lost or left behind.

Loken looked at the scene of people coming and going, and suddenly tapped Soshyan's arm gently with a mechanical appendage.

The other party then lowered his head and looked at him.

"I... have an opinion, it can't be said to be an opinion, an idea."

Loken took Soshyan to a location far away from the crowd and whispered:

"There are five warehouses here. In addition to No. 1, No. 3 and No. 5, the other two warehouses are also full. They are filled with equipment customized by various Astra Militarum armies in the Taiping Star Territory."

Soshiyang looked at it Loken, you know what the other person means.

But he didn’t say anything, nor did he point out anything. He just wanted to see what Loken was going to say in the end.

"I think that the Chapter is in such a difficult situation now. I'm afraid a strike cruiser alone may not be enough. Well... Although the Glory Saber is only a Sword-class frigate, its construction time is short and all indicators are pretty good."

"You are very courageous, Priest Loken."

Hearing Soshyan's words, Loken's shoulders shook, but the other person's subsequent words made him breathe a sigh of relief.

“What reason do we have?”

“The reason is not simple!”

Loken clapped his hands and said:

"Let's just say that although most of the traitors have been wiped out, there are still some remnants who have taken away the Glory Saber. We will follow and pursue, and then enter the subspace together... Let the people on the ground Wait for the guy, wait for hundreds of years."

"So, where is the Imperial Navy on the ship?"

Soshyan clearly remembers that this frigate belongs to the Imperial Navy. The domain patrol fleet has nothing to do with the Mechanicus here, and the consequences of disturbing them may be serious.

But Loken was full of confidence.

"Don't worry, sir. I will take care of this matter. I know the captain of the Glory Saber. He is a very frustrated and marginalized guy, but his command skills and personality are definitely the best captains I have ever seen. Both of us are very good." Like, he is not willing to return to the navy.

Soshiyang nodded, even if he agreed to this matter.

Then his eyes swept across the busy servitors and workers, including the shocked orbital guards.

“Since we have decided to have a big harvest, we also need to add some manpower.”

Upon hearing this, Loken's eyes immediately widened, and he suddenly realized that what his mentor had said in the past, that once the Space Marines loosened their restraints on themselves, they would become extremely terrifying, seemed to be true.

But Soshyan's words later made Loken feel a little more at ease.

“Gather the commanders of the guards together and explain to them. I hope to incorporate them in a more peaceful way.”

Soshiyang’s attitude of being polite before attacking made Loken Feeling relieved, he immediately summoned the guards commanders.

Because most of the senior commanders have turned into pieces of rotten meat in the center, the current command of the Orbital Defense Force is mostly former junior officers. Their status is only slightly higher than that of soldiers, but far inferior. Those mid- to high-level officers with noble backgrounds.

After Loken clarified his attitude, at least half of the officers were willing to join the Astral Knights' expedition. They were fed up with being driven by those useless nobles.

The remaining half were hesitant at first, but under Loken's intimidation - mainly emphasizing to them the upcoming trial and accountability, they soon changed their stance and decided to join the Astral Knights Chapter, become a member of the expedition.

In this way, the military power of the orbit was completely controlled, and the remaining workers and servitors had no choice at all and could only be forced to become the cornerstone of the expedition.

Soshyan is not benevolent enough to take care of all groups, this is the current situation of the empire, and he is also a member of the rules.

When they knew they were leaving their hometown and heading into the unknown void, many workers secretly shed tears or even cried. The Ashtars just stood at a distance, their stern gazes behind the black eyepieces constantly scanning each person. They were screening which of them were suitable for the middle deck and which ones were suitable for the never-ending slave deck... …

While the workers and servitors were sweating hard carrying supplies, Soshyan led Loken and Farzad's team onto the bridge of the Glory Saber.

Due to the previous invasion alarm, the engine of the Glory Saber had been started and tried to leave the starport. However, due to the appearance of the Astral Knights Chapter, the invasion was terminated, and the Glory Legion stopped this. A risky move.

When Soshyan asked to board the ship to meet the captain, the other party did not think twice and agreed immediately. After all, the Chapter Master of a Space Marine Chapter is such a noble person. Even The commander of the patrol fleet probably didn't meet him a few times.

Being able to meet Soshiyan is an extremely noble honor for the captain of the Glory Saber.

In order not to lose his dignity, he hurriedly pulled out a few people from the crew who knew how to play musical instruments and organized a temporary military band.

When Soshiyang boarded the bridge of the Glory Saber, a burst of chaotic music immediately floated over. Its roughness made Soshiyang look sideways. It turned out that it was a group of people with nervous expressions all over their faces. Khan's sailors.

Loken simply covered his ears.

"Shame on you, shame on you, Greller Hodges, why don't you be ashamed of yourself!"

The name Loken mentioned belongs to the captain of this frigate.

On the main passage from the bridge to the command seat, a middle-aged man with a brown beard and a straight navy uniform was leading the ship's senior staff to stand on the red carpet.

After seeing the tall figure of the Space Marine, Hodges immediately raised his chest and raised his head and performed a standard naval salute.

"Grel Hodges, together with all the members of the Honor Saber, pay tribute to the distinguished Chapter Master Soshyan!"

At the same time, the military band stopped playing, and the bridge All the people on board saluted Soshyan neatly.

This is a very disciplined team, Soshiyang secretly recorded this scene in his heart.

"Captain Hodges."

Soshyan walked up to him, lowered his head slightly, and praised:

"You handled this invasion very quickly."

"My lord is ridiculous!"

Hodges's face was tense and he spoke in a loud voice, as if this way he had enough courage to stand in front of an Astartes. .

Then, he turned his body and moved his hand to the right back. There was an officer standing there. He looked to be in his thirties and was also very nervous.

“This is my first officer, Danilo Rimmer.”

“I have met my lord!”

“This is my first mate.”

"By the grace of the Emperor, it is a great honor to meet you, my lord."

"This is the technical priest on our ship."

Five meters behind Hodges, stood a priest of the Mechanicus. He looked about the same age as Loken, but the mechanical parts on his body were obviously older. Many, one right eye has also been replaced by a mechanical prosthetic eye.

After seeing Soshyan, he nodded slightly and said in a very stiff voice:

“It’s a great honor.”

But when he saw Loken later, he His eyes dropped.

Fight on the street
