Chapter 2748 Grand Duke Phoenix
“Lord Ellis, I don’t want to make things difficult for you by asking this, but I want to explain a truth. This truth is often said to the ministers and commanders around me. One insight gained from more than a hundred years of life is that no matter how we look at things or take specific actions, we must seek truth from facts. What is seeking truth from facts? It means analyzing specific problems in detail, starting from reality, and drawing conclusions based on the objective circumstances of the matter. , don't make generalizations, don't be black and white, let alone subjective judgments and random conjectures. If human beings are only backward, ignorant and barbaric, but now sitting on the position of overlord of the galaxy, they should be green skins, Ada has There are 60 million years of civilization history, and humans only have 40,000 to 50,000 years of civilization history. This is enough to explain something. The Milky Way is very different from the past. If you think that the recovery of the Ada race has nothing to do with humans, you are deceiving yourself. Now I "My identity is very special, and I am blunt about this, but it is precisely because of this special identity that the Royal Court has been able to build and grow. So it is not that I miss my human identity, but that the Royal Court really needs help from humans now."
After a moment of silence, Ellis agreed:
"Morgan La is right. Your thinking has jumped out of the limitations of one race and one country, and your vision is based on the entire galaxy. This is No one can be found in any Ada tribe, but the war in the galaxy has never changed. Your Highness Soshyan, what if there is a conflict between a certain Ark world, or a virgin world, and the human empire?"
< br>"This question you raised is actually a little late. Wangting has been established for more than ten years, and has encountered countless situations during this period. You ask this, which also shows that your knowledge of the Milky Way is not deep enough, let alone There will also be conflicts and wars between Ada and humans, Ada and other races, and Ada and other races. The human empire itself has been in a long-term conflict between various forces. Do you think the empire belongs to one The overall situation is to force the Royal Court and the Empire to be on opposite sides, but the actual situation is that some chapters of the Adeptus Astartes may have extreme hatred for Ada, but there are also many chapters that respond to this with a no-nonsense attitude. , the high lord's view of Ada is that it is a 'scabies problem', and will never waste resources to actively find things to do unless necessary. The Tribunal hahaha, there are even pro-foreign factions and alien cooperation factions within it. Can you believe it? Is it? The human empire is a complex and loose existence. It rarely shows consistency in goals, and internal struggles are implemented in almost all its actions. In this case, my special identity can handle those very well. Not too serious a conflict.”
"So you don't think that the human empire is an obstacle to the rise of our race?"
"Lord Iris, it's still those four words, be honest, do you think that in the current galaxy, the most important thing is to destroy the gods and their Are the lackeys more of a threat to the Ada race? "
"Of course they are the evil gods and their lackeys, but the servants of the evil gods are basically humans."
>
"What about the Necrontyr clan? Are the Necrontyr clan a smaller threat than the human empire?"
"Of course not."
"How does the Tyranids compare to the Human Empire?"
"I have not seen these alien devourers, but I know something about them. They are indeed more threatening."
" Therefore, whether they are the Chaos Servants, the Necrontyr, or the Tyranid Zerg, they pose a greater threat to the Ada family than the Human Empire. I admit that the Ada and the Human Empire have had countless bloody conflicts over the past ten thousand years, and both sides have formed knots. There was a blood feud, but as the leaders of the Ada race, should our actions and decisions focus on past grudges or future hopes?"
Aris did not answer, but he remained silent? Already represents the answer.
“We are decision-makers, and we must do things based on logic, not emotions, because our decisions are related to countless lives. Personally, the logic that guides my decision-making is very simple, no matter what the contradiction. Which contradictions are primary and which contradictions are secondary, and based on this, decide who is a friend and who is an enemy. For the middle zone, add as many friends as possible, because only in this way can we avoid more enemies. This is the basic logic of what I do. Therefore, I judge that at least for the present and for a considerable period of time in the future, if there is no major conflict between the Royal Court and the Human Empire, there will naturally be no obstacles. On the contrary, both sides have a large number of similar opponents, especially the Chaos Servants. and the Necrontyrs.”
After a moment of silence, Iris lowered his head slightly. "I admire your wisdom, Your Highness the Phoenix King. I accept Moganla's statement. No one is more suitable to be the leader of the royal court than you, so I can make this decision."
A prophet behind Iris stepped forward, holding a casket in his hand. Doral immediately walked down the stairs, took the box, opened it, and then presented it to Soshyan.
There was a framed spirit bone document lying inside. Soshyan picked it up and took a look. Naturally, no surprise, it was a submission that Mimela was willing to join the royal court and serve as the chief minister of Veronese.
"Mimela will always be loyal to the Eternal Royal Court and Her Majesty the Eternal Queen. I hope the sun will shine on our homeland again and never forget the glory of our ancestors who dominated the galaxy."
Phoenix Lord Mimela immediately knelt down on one knee, and at this time, the maid had already handed the document to Veronica.
"The Twilight Shadow Iris and the Starlight Spear will also fight for the resurrection of our clan, at your Majesty's command."
Veroni's voice then floated out from behind the scenes.
“Lord Iris attaches great importance to the overall interests of the race, which is admirable, so he makes you the Shadow Grand Duke and gives you the new Shadow Shrine.”
This position of Grand Duke is maintained by Soshi Yang. After Ronika discussed it for a long time, the newly established one was used to arrange the Phoenix Lords. It was more like an honorary title than a position. The Grand Dukes had their own "fief", which was the Grand Shrine, and their main job was to train Taoists there. The warrior also holds a high-ranking military position, has a high-ranking seat in the Privy Council, and serves as the Phoenix King's deputy when war breaks out.
But one thing that must be noted is that the Phoenix Grand Dukes have no command authority over the "graduated" Taoist Warriors in the Grand Shrine. Even if the Taoist Warriors follow him only out of personal will, the Phoenix Archduke has no right to command the Taoist Warriors. If they leave the Grand Shrine or are prevented from being transferred by the royal court, only the apprentices who are still in training will fully accept the management of Grand Duke Phoenix.
After all, "Private individuals may not train and form armed forces" is written in the law of the royal court.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Soshiyan noticed something unusual in Mimela's submission before. It was not until Iris stood up again that he asked:
"Grand Duke Aerys, why is the population of Mimela so sparse? It seems to be much less than the normal Arkworld. Has it ever encountered a war?"
