Well, in fact, when he learned about these things, Soshiyan felt that the chief priest was a bit too much. After all, they were all battle brothers and of the same blood, and the Poisonous Thorns Chapter did not really rebel at that time. He killed someone in anger just because of a verbal dispute. It couldn't be justified in any case. Even if it was justified, it was unreasonable. Anyway, if Soshyan was present, he would definitely stop him.
What is even more exaggerated is that the priest went to Sanatar alone to negotiate with the Poisonous Thorns Chapter who was still stranded there.
According to records, the Chief Priest destroyed the entire mutinous war group alone, so the Phalanx also erected a statue in his honor.
This thing seems very strange. No matter how powerful a priest is, he can directly sweep a war group? But the problem is that this pastor has no other more prominent achievements in his life, so why did he suddenly become so violent in beating his own brother? As strong as Lysander, wearing a Terminator was eventually captured by the enemy because he was outnumbered, and even if the Poisonous Thorns Chapter couldn't defeat him, he could always run away, right? Don't stand there and open the ladle one by one. (The master of the classic swamp plot designed by gw)
But now it seems that this priest obviously did not really wipe out the Poisonous Thorns Chapter.
But there is no point in saying this, because the priest has long since returned to the throne.
Now the point is, what is their purpose of coming to me?
Probably not looking for trouble
The most likely possibility is that he wants to defect, or defect to the Suffering Alliance.
If this is the case, it would be a bit difficult to handle. After all, the Poisonous Thorn Chapter has indeed not committed any crime. Logically speaking, there is no problem in joining the Suffering Alliance, but their enmity with the Imperial Fists is. It really exists.
This may make Soshyan's position very embarrassing.
But the other party is here after all, and he has to make a statement after all. In fact, no one will know if he directly eliminates them here, but Soshiyang still feels guilty in his heart, especially after knowing what happened to them. After the incident——
The demands made by the Poisonous Thorns Chapter may not necessarily be reasonable, but they did not seize them directly by force or attack anyone. They still patiently dealt with the imperial bureaucracy and tried to use peaceful methods. There is nothing wrong with expressing and satisfying demands through other methods. Is it a sin to express one's own opinions? So compared to the fact that the Space Wolves raised their axes at the Inquisitors and escaped unscathed, is this too high a standard?
"Chapter Commander, the guard fleet asked whether to start a battle formation? The opponent is about to enter the system safety line."
Hearing the voice of the communications officer, Soshiyang thought for a while , then said:
"Send a signal to the other party and ask them to stop. I will contact them personally."
Not long after the signal was sent out, the other party's ship gradually slowed down, and Soshyan's flagship also slowly slowed down. Welcoming him.
As the opponent appeared in the visual capture device, a somewhat "ragged" battle barge appeared on the display. In appearance, this ship had obvious signs of repair. It should have experienced many battles. , but it has no obvious signs of corruption. A vague mark can be seen on the side of the battleship, but unfortunately the specific shape cannot be distinguished.
But the Sky Eagle emblem on the bow of the ship is still very obvious.
As the two ships gradually approached, Soshyan turned on the audio transmitter.
"I am the chapter leader of the Astral Knights, Soshyan Alexey. Please answer if you hear me."
A few seconds later, a rich voice sounded from the loudspeaker next to Soshyan.
"Hail to you, Chapter Master Soshyan Alexey, Gray Eagle of the Empire, and Commander of the Eleventh Legion, Shahan Shah of the Undead."
一In an instant, the air on the bridge stagnated for a few seconds. Soshiyang narrowed his eyes and asked softly:
"Who are you."
The other party laughed twice, like a ghost in a tomb, and then hissed:
"Reporting to the commander of the army, I am the current commander of 'Simog', Texhar."
< br>Simorg, the name Soshyan has an impression. Elena once mentioned it when describing the structure of the undead army in the past to him. Simog, Manticore, Kalkadan, and Sabern are the legions. There are four elite troops with a size of more than a thousand people, and Simog is also called the Susa Guards, the personal guard of the original body.
But what concerned him more was the other person's name. "Texhar? You did it four hundred years ago"
"Dead? Yes, it was."
"It seems that you do have a lot to say. Come to the ship and bring all the soldiers with you."
"As ordered."< br>
Ten minutes later, when the bridge door opened, a group of people walked in. They were sandwiched between the Terminators on the left and right, and divided into three queues. Everyone was wearing what can be called "simple" uniforms. "Power armor, and the power armor on many people has obvious traces of patchwork. There are even rivets on the shoulder armor and leg armor. They are similar to the Chaos war gangs Soshiyang saw, but their armor The color is the original gray iron color, which means that all the coatings have been erased, and the original chapter logo on the shoulder armor has also been erased, leaving only an XI and a burning black sun - this is the eleventh Legion emblem.
If the records Soshiyan saw are correct, the paint of the Poisonous Thorns Chapter should be yellow and black.
There is only one explanation for this behavior in the empire -
Rebellion.
After arriving at the reception area of the bridge, a company of Terminators retreated left and right, but their weapons were all activated. Maximilian came to Soshyan's side, although no one along the way He didn't say anything, but the symbols on these men's shoulder armor still attracted the curiosity of the soldiers of the company.
Is this the lost legion brother?
Soshiyang sat on the throne and looked at the people below who claimed to be the Poisonous Thorns Chapter. At a glance, they counted 221 people. The leader was a warrior wearing an Unyielding Terminator, with many armors. There are battle scars, some alien bones are tied to the chains around his waist, a huge human skull is strung on a spike behind him, and a two-handed power hammer hangs behind him. If he doesn't tell his identity, he looks like the leader of a Chaos war gang.
After the two sides looked at each other for a moment, the man took off his helmet, revealing a face that made Sosh frown slightly.
In other words, half a face
The left side of this warrior's face is covered with small scars, but it can still be seen that he once had a resolute and handsome face, but his right side The side face is completely metalized - not in the form of a metal mask, but the outline details of the entire face are still there, and even the eyes can blink, but the texture has become silver metal.
Soon, Soshyan realized something, squinted his eyes, and whispered:
"You transplanted gray marrow."
The opponent puffed up his chest, raised his right arm, and said loudly:
“All soldiers of Simog, salute Commander Alexei!”
“To Commander Alexei! Salute!"
The roars of more than two hundred soldiers shook the bridge, but Soshyan said nothing. After they lowered their arms, he said slowly:
"You are Teksha. You?”
The half-faced warrior nodded.
“Yes, Legion Commander.”
