Chapter 353: Battle Group Merger
“Brothers of the Soul Drinkers.”
Soshiyan said loudly, using standard High Gothic pronunciation.
Although several days have passed since the civil war, everyone is still immersed in shock, feeling as if the whole world is cracking under their feet.
After this bloody battle, there are still 282 loyal soul drinkers left. Among them, 120 have been transplanted with black carapace and put on power armor. After the bloody battles, only 282 loyal veterans are left. Only 34 people.
In addition, they also captured 27 renegade Soul Drinker veterans, who are still imprisoned in the battleship's prison.
The once prosperous battle group suddenly became incomplete, and many soldiers felt extremely depressed.
As if abandoned by fate.
If they are allowed to leave, this army will fight for the lifetime of ordinary people without faith, running rampant in the galaxy like some kind of headless beast, relying entirely on its own goals and habits. and hunger
In this case, it will either perish or fall.
Soshyan was trying to avoid this situation, and after returning to the Unbound Soul, Thor frankly told him that the Soul Drinker actually had some of the blood of the Eleventh Legion!
When he heard the news, Soshyan was simply stunned.
He had never heard Brother Said mention that in addition to the Astral Knights, there were other chapters that were the eleventh bloodline.
What is going on?
Saul's statement is that the Eleventh Legion was originally scattered among the Seventh Legion. Although most of them were actually gathered in one company, a small number were scattered to other companies.
After the second establishment of the army, the company belonging to the Eleventh Legion established a separate battle group with the efforts of Brother Seid. However, the soldiers scattered in other companies were scattered all over the place due to the great rebellion, and in the end they could not be contacted.
It was only possible to discover that the Soul Drinker belonged to the Eleventh Legion, thanks to the Soul Drinker's Apothecary Pallas.
When he was helping to recover the gene seeds of the Astral Knights, he discovered that the gene seeds of the Astral Knights and the gene seeds of the Soul Drinkers were completely consistent in map comparison.
This immediately caught the pharmacist's attention.
In fact, the Soul Drinkers' Apothecary Guild has been keeping a huge secret - the gene seeds of the Soul Drinkers are not descendants of the Imperial Fists!
This discovery came from two thousand years ago when a battle group and the Black Templars were fighting together. The president of the Pharmacist Association at that time also helped the friendly forces recover gene seeds. As a result, he subconsciously carried out sampling tests during preservation, and accidentally discovered that the other party's The gene-seed is a complete mismatch for the Soul Drinker.
After that, the apothecaries of the Soul Drinkers successively compared it with other Imperial Fist battle groups, and finally came to a conclusion.
The Soul Drinkers are definitely not the children of Dorne!
This is a very amazing secret.
In order not to shake the foundation of the Chapter, subsequent Soul Drinker Apothecaries strictly guarded this secret and have been trying to find the true "roots" of the Chapter.
When Pallas discovered that the gene seeds of the Astral Knight and the Soul Drinker were highly matched, he immediately wanted to contact Soshyan, but was stopped by Thor halfway.
After that, both parties revealed their identities and exchanged a wave of intelligence at hand.
When he learned that he was actually the descendant of the disappeared legion, Pallas seemed surprised, but not to an unacceptable level - in fact, he had already made similar speculations.
Then he accepted his identity very naturally and chose to join the secret society of the Undead Army.
According to Pallas, the secrets of the Soul Drinkers don’t stop there. In fact, there are two types of gene seeds within their war group!
Most of them are his kind, that is, the gene seeds of the Eleventh Legion, and a small part are from another unknown source of gene seeds, and they are mainly concentrated in think tanks and priests.
But no matter how complicated the situation of the Soul Drinkers was in the past, the current reality is that Soshiyang must accept this small half of the Soul Drinkers battle group no matter what.
When Sol mentioned this plan to him, Soshyan still resisted instinctively.
"Merge another battle group?"
When he said this, something that happened not long ago appeared in his mind.
"Isn't that with the traitor Huron——"
The leader of the Maelstrom Rebellion, a major crime of the Star Claw Chapter is that it annexed the Tiger Claw Chapter of the same bloodline.
"Huron did it for his own personal ambition."
Thor comforted him like this.
"And you are for the Empire." "But Huron also claims so."
"Then ask yourself, will you become Huron?"
Soshiyang was speechless at the time, but in his heart, he always held a question.
If what Huron did had not been exposed, would he still be a hero of the Empire?
Should a person's good or bad qualities be judged by his deeds or his heart?
In the end, he chose to take this step.
Logically speaking, the current soul drinkers should have a new chapter leader elected by themselves.
But in fact there is no such step. They are all leaderless and not ready to be led by an "outsider".
He could feel the confusion of the soldiers. He had never led them, nor had he fought, lived and trained with them for a long time, let alone understand them.
Now, he is standing high and looking down at them, in the gathering hall of the Unbound Souls.
Their helmets gleamed under the lights. 316 people gathered here, and large vehicles were parked at the edge of the field.
Hundreds of pairs of eyes hidden behind the helmet's visor were undoubtedly focused on Soshyan, examining him as carefully as he examined them.
They need to witness something more than strength, or he may never earn their respect.
So Soshyan chose to walk down from the viewing platform, walk to the front of the assembled company, and took the holy object from Sol's hand.
The warriors waited in perfect silence. Their armor looked heavy in the clear light, and those warriors who did not wear power armor looked even stiffer.
"Brothers of the Soul Drinkers, you have witnessed the fall of your compatriots and the sacrifice of heroes not long ago!"
After standing still, Soshiyang said loudly:
" I think there is no need to say anything about right and wrong! The name of rebellion has been engraved on it. I promised my best friend that the soul drinker will never bear the name of rebellion!"
When he said these words, The soldiers began to whisper.
Perhaps with suspicion, but they were already willing to listen to these words, especially when they noticed the soul spear in Soshyan's hand.
"As we all know, the only way to get rid of shame and sin is to eradicate traitors! But the name Soul Drinker can no longer be used freely. If you continue to carry this name, you will become a target."
As he spoke, he raised his head Arm, shouted:
"We are all the eternal guards of the empire, inheriting the same and glorious blood! Over the long years, some people have remained loyal and loyal, while others have rebelled and gone astray! But Those past are not worth mentioning now, every path of destiny leads us to gather here! The sword of destiny hangs high above the traitor's head, and together we will insert this sharp blade into the stinky heart!"
"Revenge! Revenge!"
Pharmacist Pallas was the first to shout, and then the soldiers roared in unison like thunder.
revenge! revenge! revenge!
“I, Soshyan Alexey, hereby swear on the sacred soul spear to kill every traitor! When all rebels are put to death, I will restore the former glory of the Soul Drinker. ! Never break your promise, the emperor will serve as a warning!"
As he spoke, he raised the soul spear high, and the holy object bloomed brilliantly under the light.
When the soldiers saw this ancient holy object, they were immediately excited and couldn't help themselves. Soshiyang, who had regained the soul spear, really began to be accepted by them.
"Long live Chapter Master Soshyan! Long live the Soul Drinker!"
Under the guidance of Pallas, the soldiers burst into cheers.
On that day, Soshyan made a simple arrangement, and all veterans unified into the Honor Guard and became his bodyguards.
The remaining warriors and recruits will be mixed with the original warriors of the Astral Knights to form three new companies. The leaders will be Farzad, Ustad and the veteran representatives of the Soul Drinkers. mark.
Mark serves as the first company commander, Ustad serves as the second company commander, and Farzad serves as the third company commander.
At the same time, information about the rebellion of the Soul Drinkers Chapter also began to spread rapidly to other territories of the empire.
