Chapter 1327 The Legendary Hero Swears an Oath
Slaanesh snuck away.
Afraid of abuse, but unwilling to stop.
Especially when he discovered that Tzeentch's actions, although basically indicating that he did not want to fight the Light God head-on for the time being, did not leave cleanly, but instead applied his power somewhere on the planet of Gradius.
Tzeentch realizes that Tzeentch may well have discovered the key to the events of Graidiaus' series.
After all, there was a god-like protective force field there before, and he was also aware of it.
The sadists felt that Tzeentch was the undisputed first of the four evil gods when it came to the depth of the investigation into Gradius, and that he must know some secrets.
Therefore, keeping an eye on Tzeentch was a viable strategy for the new entrant.
As for Treacherine's cunning and cunning, whether he will take advantage of his line of thought, fear and abuse have not been considered.
If it was in the past, it would naturally be more cautious so as not to be used by Tzeentch.
Although he doesn't care much about the life and death of his subordinates, after all, he has a mine at home, and there are many people who are willing to work for him, but being used by Tzeentch to tease himself is something he extremely disgusts.
But this time the situation was a little different, the anomaly on Gradius was obviously blown up by the aftermath of the powerful god-level battle.
Moreover, that kind of divine field is obviously different from Kane's holy light, and even the light of the light god, so it can be said to be a mysterious third party.
In this universe, there are very few gods, and suddenly there are so many gods that pop up at once, there is always one that is particularly critical, and the fear of sadism realizes that this third party is likely to be the key existence.
Of course, he was obviously mistaken, and if he had to say that there was a key being, it would definitely be Kane.
Also mistaken is Tzeentch.
Tzeentch fell deeper, he had always believed that Kane and his First Order came to Gradius to find the key person or thing that Kane and his master's master, who were bound to obtain, and this person or thing, and even the roots of Kane and his master, were their fatal shortcomings.
And this time, there is a god-like force field, which makes Tzeentch more and more convinced that his speculation is correct, and he is one step closer to the truth.
With this idea in mind, Tzeentch naturally spared no effort to invest in the power of that area. This not only flattered a certain legion of Tzeentch demons who were already here.
This Tzeentch demon army is called the Demon Oath.
Their slogan is: All vows in the world can be broken, but only the oath of magic lasts forever.
Like many other high-end Tzeentch Demon Legions, the Oath Legion is adept at demagoguery and treachery.
However, they have their own characteristics, that is, they like to attack the Black Ship of the Human Empire's Astral Court.
The reason is simple, the Black Ship of the Star Court is aimed at psionics, and its tough and brutal behavior is a persecution for many psionics.
Where there is oppression, there is resistance.
The high-ranking demons of the Legion of Oaths often play roles similar to Murphy, the protagonist of 'The Matrix', giving psykers more options, knowing the truth, and still being able to make free choices.
I have to say that this routine is still quite popular, especially when the person concerned begins to face the Imperial Psyker Capture Group, which is dominated by the Silent Cultivator, and when cornered, it is easy to fall into the trap of the Oath Legion.
After a long time, the Star Court and the Sisters of Silence all discovered the problem here.
However, with the consistent urine nature of the various branches of power in the empire, they are proud not to immediately review whether their professional abilities are disqualified and outdated, but focus on external factors.
To put it simply, the fact that the Oath Legion is always one step ahead of them, or just at the right time, shows that the intelligence work is doing an excellent job.
The intelligence work of the Legion of the Oath is doing well, which means that there are major intelligence gaps on the side of the Star Court and the Sisters of Silence, and to be more specific, there are likely to be traitors, and they are people who are in high positions or have direct access to key information.
As we all know, the spy war is cruel, in order to dig out the renegades, the Star Court and the Sisters of Silence have invested a lot over the years, but the results have been successful, and they have even been used against them, engaged in several unjust, false and wrongful cases, and lost several loyal and capable people.
Of course, this kind of bad thing is not easy to publicize everywhere, and the pain is swallowed by itself. At the same time, they became more and more convinced that there were big men in their camp who collaborated with the enemy.
And this Operation Gradius is actually a specially targeted hoeing operation.
The reason why I chose to join the excitement of Gradius is mainly because of the popularity of Gradius in recent years!
The fire is so hot that it turns purple, it is simply synonymous with mysterious, powerful, and epic events.
Anything that can be associated with Gradius is particularly eye-catching. The power layer of the human empire is even agitated because of it, showing a tendency to deform and fanatically.
The most extreme is naturally the argument that through the Gradius incident, some people who have seen the true strength of the Chaos system, the desperate rhetoric they proclaim, and the powerful performance of the First Order, they feel that this force should enter the center as soon as possible to save the empire.
But there are also other arguments, some who are concerned about the strength of the First Order, and some who welcome the Empire's rapid absorption of the strengths of the First Order, and so on.
All in all, Gradius was already a very fashionable focal point in the circles of powerful people in the Empire, and salon gatherings, without a few words about Gradius, seemed to be out of step with the times.
And aside from these flashy things on the surface, there are indeed many people who are wondering how to use the phenomenal Gradius incident.
One of the uses is naturally borrowed from the 'meat grinder' quality there.
However, the powerful men of the empire preferred to use the word 'melting pot' to describe Gradius.
"You say you're very good? Take Gradius to yo-yo, whether you are a famous Astarte Monks or a newly born all-star mercenary group, go to Gradius once, and you can still come out, and your value will be doubled immediately. ”
Such a statement has been recognized by a small number of people to many people. It took just over a year.
Gradius is indeed a place of real gold.
But in turn, it's also the place to get rid of the slag.
The Court of Astrological Whispers and the Sisters of Silence took advantage of this principle to arrange the rape operation. The principal believed that with Gradius's fashionability, lethality and allure, he was bound to attract the enemy into the urn.
As it turned out, the line of thought was correct, but the higher-ups of the Astral Court and the Sisters of Silence were a little lacking in imagination.
Because the highly decorated model of the times and the war hero who presided over this operation was precisely an apostate.
This high-ranking official of the Star Language Court named Harlan bears the aura of glory of the 'Living Legend'.
Rooted in Miao Hong, his parents were loyal nobles who sacrificed for the empire, and when he was in the Loyal Heir Academy, he was particularly prominent, and then entered the Imperial Defense Army and became a political commissar.
Then began the legendary career of political commissar. It has a nickname called 'The Immortal Bird'.
But behind this glamour, there is filth and filth.
In the beginning, he was able to live without dying because of the dirty politics.
In the words of a certain bigwig in the military department, now the empire needs a hero, if not, then we will make one.
The reason why Harlan was selected is because he himself is very close to the true legendary hero, and he is the kind of existence that is said to be a prominent figure as long as he does not die along.
But on the battlefield where bullets are raining, and the Imperial Defense Force, which has always been cannon fodder as the first label, it is really difficult to survive repeated battles (front-line) without dying.
Harlan was originally an upright young man, and he was a little too upright. Specifically, like a fanatic, he is a die-hard fan of the empire.
It is this spirit that ordinary people can't compare with at all that has forged an iron will and achieved several extraordinary deeds that ordinary people worship.
But at the same time, I also suffered from PTSD.
However, he is a political commissar, and he is also a bull commissar who has proven his ability and loyalty again and again, he is already a quasi-hero, and there is no shortage of supporters in the army.
On the front line, he has more prestige than a serious commander. And the big man in the army who can take power to suppress him in the rear, it is difficult to really know the situation on the front line, even if there are some different feedbacks, they have been gently exposed, one is said that no one is perfect, flaws are not hidden, and even some people deliberately spread unfavorable remarks because of jealousy, envy and hatred, which is a gossip......
In other words, at that time, Harlan's heart was actually full of holes. The passion of the past has been worn out by negative content such as the tragic death of Paoze.
In other words, the young blood is already stimulant-like Dongdong, and the outbreak is indeed sharp, but it is not long-lasting. What's more, passion is difficult to last, and no one can always be high-tide.
At this time, the most suitable arrangement for Harlan is actually to return to the field with a body of honor. For example, to go to the teaching team, every day to contact the vigorous new rookie or something.
Unfortunately, what awaits Harlan is a dirty politics and ugly deals. The bigwigs needed Harlan to continue to be brilliant and reach new heights, so everything changed.
It also led to a great change in Harlan's three views.
The former die-hard loyalists contain a lot of naivety and assumptions that are not too much to do. After being tempered on the battlefield again and again, the image of those monuments in my mind has dimmed a lot.
The source of stubbornness lies in deep feelings, and the source of ostrich psychology is the source of refusing to admit defeat easily, refusing to admit that so many years of birth and death, and witnessing so many human life investments, what is defended is not a holy land, but a filthy land.
If you admit it, it is tantamount to a denial of the first half of your life, which contains so many memorable moments, brilliant, touching, and the result has become synonymous with stupidity, the greater and more brilliant, the more stupid it is, which is why Harlan does not want to admit it.
However, the dirty political-political deal ruthlessly tore the last small fig leaf of the heart, which laid a solid foreshadowing for Harlan to go from one extreme to the other.
Harlan's example is something Kane has always been averse to. It is a disadvantage of fanaticism. Unless there is a way to keep the opponent in the dark, or use it for a short time, and still after a few rounds, the probability of apostasy is very high, and the lethality is also very high.
Dirty political deals often don't end peacefully to everyone's satisfaction.
After Harlan became a fake, he was already despised by those who created this fake with their own hands. This situation can be said to be not contradictory at all, they will even say: "I thought you were a strong man, if it was, maybe you would be miserable for not cooperating, but from the bottom of my heart, I still give a thumbs up, but you chose to know the times, didn't you......"
At this time, Harlan had no interest in the heroic ending.
So he began to save himself, and then he came into contact with some crooked ways, and then because of his use value, he reached a black deal with some existence.
After a handful, Harlan also learned well.
Of course, on a larger scale, it is still a gun that is being used.
So the later immortality stems from the filthy deeds that cannot be told to others.
And entering the Star Language Court was also very purposeful from the very beginning.
The demons have a long lifespan, and it is common for them to spend more than ten years or decades planning one thing, and Harlan is just a more representative one.
Harlan is 'hard-hitting', and the empire is willing to set some examples, anyway, it doesn't cost money, but as a result, there are more moths in the empire's pillar system.
Many excellent sons and daughters of the empire have been killed, and the hoeing operation is another time, and if it is successful, it will be the most brilliant one.
Because this time, the Star Language Court and the Sisters of Silence will come up with the Tianjiao of the times, if they are wiped out, these two departments will be dimmed for more than ten years.
It can be regarded as the Divine Blessing Empire, Kane appeared at the right time.
The Demon Oath Legion is also a strong force under Tzeentch, and in recent years, due to the absorption of psionic powers, the basic strength of the legion is strong, and the ranking has improved rapidly.
Tzeentch obviously attaches great importance to Gradius, and the ambitious Oath Legion sees it in their eyes, so they naturally don't want to miss this opportunity to show their faces in front of the big guys.
In fact, they are indeed one of the demon legions under Tzeentch's command who have performed well and made some achievements.
To be more specific, the deaths of nearly a billion Gradius people since the beginning of the war are directly or indirectly related to them.
To be more specific, the Demon Oath Legion plays the game of 'razing and razing', and the traitors are often more ferocious and destructive, and the Demon Oath Legion is to use the renegade psionics as the main force to fight against the First Order.
At one point, they were ridiculed by their allies for this, and many high-level demons said: This is an epic battlefield, and it is extremely difficult for the demons to stand on the flagpole, how much stronger can a renegade psionic person be than a Chaos believer?
As a result, he was ruthlessly slapped in the face by the facts, and the one who understands human beings best has to say human beings themselves. It is true that the renegade psionics can't tear apart the soldiers of the First Order, but the First Order has the big burden of the Gradiaus, and they can use it as a breakthrough.
This entry point, other demon legions have also discovered, and they have worked hard to put it into action, and the destruction of the surface of the Galadius star into scorched earth is a proof that the weapons of the First Order have always been known for their precision and environmental protection, and they can't do anything to beat their own territory into a mess.
There is nothing wrong with the selection of entry points, and what is wrong is the way and method.
The devil's set of forcible attacks and indiscriminate bombardments have failed again and again in the face of the First Order, and even made the military and people of the First Order more closely united.
The renegade of the psychic often works wonders. Incitement and discord are originally Tzeentchy's forte, coupled with the spiritual erosion of psionic energy, with some illusions, and find a few nurseries, in short, it is to take advantage of people's fickle hearts and inevitably resentful in the face of suffering, and stab people with soft knives.
Although the chaos believers of the other demon legions are also proficient in this business, there are few psionics, and they directly use the transcendent spells of the chaos system and the detection and investigation system of the first order to teach people to be people in minutes. But the psychic power is different, it is easy to mix with the mental force field of the crowd.
If it was a world of conjugators like Osiris's Underworld Divine Kingdom, it would naturally not be able to mix things up, but during that time, the Holy Light Sect was still in its infancy, and Kane was not there, so it was exploited by the renegade psionics of the Oath Legion.
And these are already yesterday's scenery, the First Order has successfully digested the burden, and there are no more people for the Demon Oath Legion to play with.
So they are also like other Tzeentch Demon Legions, and they are embarrassed to show the big boss if their performance reports are poor.
Because of this, they attach great importance to this hoeing operation, and even plan to frame it to a certain extent to create a good report. In other words, it is also a formed force that has destroyed a combat force of the First Order, even if it is still a peripheral force.
However, they accidentally got involved in a real big game of chess......
