Chapter 1577 Day of Mourning
The battle group monastery hall of Nessen IV was brightly lit at the moment, but the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
Thousands of space warriors gathered here. They all came from the White Templar and the Astral Knights. Everyone had a black cloak hanging on their shoulders. The polished armor was visible to the naked eye. Anger and sadness permeated them.
There are eleven glass coffins placed in the middle of the hall, but because some soldiers have no bones left, only fragments of their armor can be placed.
In one of the glass coffins, Randall was lying quietly, motionless.
His eyes were closed tightly, and behind the glass of the golden coffin, he still looked as solemn as when he was alive. The mark of honor was engraved on every break in his armor, every scar on his body, and his severed hands were re-opened. Sewn to the wrist.
But the red pirate's black hand mark on his armor is so dazzling, and the broken sword stuck in his chest is also so eye-catching.
Soshiyang has been standing in silence for more than half an hour. Hatred and anger are rolling in his chest, and they are getting stronger with time like aging, making his face as gloomy as before a storm. sky.
And in this anger and hatred, there is also regret and guilt.
Obviously he knew that his enemies would definitely counterattack, but he was arrogant and thought that the other party would not dare to do anything now.
Huron was obviously a powerful opponent, but he was not prepared at all. Even the hidden lines placed in the maelstrom were only focused on opening up smuggling routes.
It was clear that Randall's physical condition was getting worse, but he did not force him to receive necessary treatment.
If he had not chosen Ustad to escape and appointed him as acting army commander after Randall arrived, would this matter not have happened?
If he did not draw so many veterans from the White Templar, would Randall be better protected?
If he had not gone to Comoros because of favoritism, would he have been alert to Huron's behavior during this period?
If he had solved Huron, wouldn't this happen?
Deep in his heart, Soshyan has long believed that he was inseparable from Randall's death. Compared with this dedicated friend, he is completely unqualified and derelict in his duties. Perhaps the other party He is really more suitable for this position than himself.
And he can serve as the commander of the legion only because of his identity as the original adapter of Gray Marrow.
Randall should not have ended up like this. Just a few red pirate thieves would never have killed him. If his gray marrow was not defective, if he held Fentian, if— —
Soshiyang clenched his fists subconsciously, clenching his teeth so hard that he could almost see the slightly bulging muscles on his face.
Then he took a step forward.
At that moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on him.
Soshyan walked towards Randall step by step, then stopped beside him, stretched out his hand to hold the broken sword.
With a puff, he pulled out the broken sword, held it in his hand and slowly raised it.
"I, Soshyan Alexey, hereby swear this oath! Brother Randall, Huron's head will be the first sacrifice at your funeral!!"
Hearing a crisp sound, Soshiyang crushed the broken sword into pieces with his bare hands.
"Revenge!"
When the first sound sounded, all the soldiers raised their fists high and let out a roar that made the entire fortress tremble.
Revenge!
Revenge!
revenge! However, Kayon and Thor in the team exchanged a look, and they both saw the worry in each other's eyes - this matter didn't seem that simple.
After the memorial, Randall was not buried because Soshyan decided to give his friend a grand funeral after revenge, but now he needed to solve another matter.
The White Templars need a new Chapter Master.
Because Randall passed away suddenly and left no designated heir, the matter fell on Soshyan, the legion commander, and the company commanders of the White Templar also agreed that he should be the one to take over. specified.
The currently confirmed candidates are First Company Commander Lalon and Second Company Commander Arash. As a Terminator veteran, the First Company Commander has sufficient qualifications and prestige, but he has a problem, that is, as a Terminator of Dehgan, he has gray on his body. Like Randall, he is also a low-quality gray marrow. He is also the only low-quality gray marrow user who still built the White Temple after Randall's death.
With the example of Randall, Soshyan can only exclude him, and then only the second company commander Arash is left.
Arash entered service late. Randall had already canceled the transformation step of transplanting gray marrow at that time, so he did not have gray marrow. After the White Templar returned to the Legion, Arash became the leader of the White Templar. The first batch of warriors transplanted Soshyan's gray marrow, and the fusion was very good.
The result is obvious. Soshyan met Arash alone and told the other party his decision.
Alash declined modestly at first, but after Soshyan explained the reasons clearly, he said nothing more. He just hoped that Soshyan would give him a chance to take revenge in person.
Although he wanted to kill Huron himself, considering that revenge for Randall would allow Arash to gain recognition from the members of the war group, Soshyan promised to let him kill Huron himself.
On the second day of the memorial service, Arash was inaugurated as the leader of the White Templar Chapter under the witness of Soshiyan. Because the Snow Lotus Blade was taken away, Soshiyan took a sword named [Golden] from the flagship armory. Owl] gave the opponent the exquisite power spear as a symbol. This weapon once belonged to a captain of the legion.
At the same time, Soshyan also comforted Lalon and Honor Guard Captain Murad, who had been blaming themselves, because they believed that they had not protected Randall.
In order to ease the other party's sadness and prevent discordant voices within the White Temple, Soshyan simply transferred Murad, the champion of the war group who had previously participated in the Feast of Blades, to the Astral Knights to assist Mark launches the training program of the Dark Guard.
While Soshyan was busy dealing with Randall's death, Sol and Kayon suddenly found him.
"This thing is weird."
Kayon was the first to express his opinion.
“If it was really Huron’s revenge, he could have taken advantage of the chaotic command of the White Templars to inflict heavy damage on the fleet after killing Chapter Commander Randall, but in fact their performance was even worse. Like a thief, he ran away as soon as he got the benefit."
On an observation deck in the monastery fortress, Soshyan frowned slightly when he heard Kayan's words and looked away from the starry sky. Yekong took it back - maybe he knew that Soshyan had a lot of things going on recently and was not in a good mood, so Veronica didn't come to see him in the past few days.
Then he turned around and looked at the two of them.
"What do you mean-"
Thor took out the data pad, then tapped it lightly, and a chaotic sound appeared.
“This is the communication record between the Black Bee and the Heart of Light that I retrieved. This is the conversation between the Captain of the Black Bee and Captain Randall. I filtered out the voices of the two. We asked the technicians to analyze each piece of audio, and finally found a very weak sound. The person who spoke should be standing far away, but it was accidentally captured by the audio equipment. "
As he spoke, Sol. With a tap on the datapad, most of the sound disappeared, leaving only a brief, eerie grunt.
“What is this?”
"A low Gothic language, with a heavy accent and unclear articulation, but it can still be roughly understood."
"What language?"
"Fenrisian."
