Chapter 272 264 Garo Wins Today, Hades Suffers a Crushing Defeat

Chapter 272 264. Garro won a great victory today, Hades was defeated

[Nothing happened today. ]

Vox casually wrote these words in his diary, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

In his diary, the same short sentence has been repeated hundreds of times.

If only this kind of life could continue, Vox thought, staying in Barbarus, there would be no war, no death.

He even thought about applying to stay in Barbarus, but he knew he couldn't do it. Following Mortarion, Hades and Garro, participating in every war of the Death Guard, this is his mission in this life.

The Death Guard fleet has been anchored in the Barbarus star field for some time. The Empire was very satisfied with their previous battles, so it specially approved the Death Guard's rest. Except for the busy Mortarion and Hades, other Death Guards have gained a lot of free time during this long period of time.

Following Hades, Garro formed his own combat training department, and began to teach the recruits combat skills and beat them sustainably - and Garro explained that the Death Guards should not be allowed to relax during non-war periods.

Mortarion and Hades expressed their affirmation of Garro's ideas, so the combat captain changed from beating the new recruits with a blank expression to beating the new recruits with a blank expression and more fiercely.

And Vox sometimes went to Garro's combat training department to practice, and then was beaten and thrown out by Garro with a swollen nose and face, but he didn't come just for the "beating" thing -

Maybe it was because Garro's expressionless face revealed too much resentment. In the entire Death Guard, there was only one person who rarely came to the combat training department, yes, Commander Hades.

So during the rest time waiting to be beaten, the Death Guards often gathered together to tell jokes. This was a tacit behavior. Except for Hades, Garro and Vox tacitly allowed this behavior - and even participated in it.

No one knows why Hades, who is the most humorous, would prohibit such behavior, but who cares? If the commander does not explicitly prohibit it, then do it where he cannot see it.

The commander of the legion, Mortarion, sometimes comes to visit to see the combat quality of the new recruits of Galaspar and ask for jokes. Although no one can speak easily in front of the commander of the legion, everything becomes easy after the commander of the legion tells a joke that satirizes psychics.

You can say anything except the joke of the commander of the legion.

And because it has been docked in Barbarus, the Death Guard can also search for talents suitable for the training course from the planet No. 5 with a large flow of people. This is obviously good, because the Death Guard who went to the back kitchen served food that became edible for the first time.

The commander was particularly relieved during those days, and everyone knew what happened.

As for why they knew this.

The commander's own students of social management betrayed him. Through Hades' teachings, they have realized that they should stand with the masses at the bottom, so when facing other Death Guards, they decisively betrayed the highest-level commander and revealed all the Hades strategies they collected, although it is rumored that they still have some killer weapons hidden for internal communication only.

Vorx was obviously very sad about this matter. Hades' own students betrayed him. But this did not prevent Vorx from using some of the information he knew to exchange for internal Hades strategies.

The behavior of those Death Guards who betrayed Hades was despised by most Death Guards, but under Hades' personal teaching, they are undoubtedly the most active group of people in the Death Guard, including the Mechanicus, the Cerberus, representatives of other worlds, and the Death Guard's own officials. Their interpersonal network is quite broad, and some of them have even become members of the Death Guard management, and their progress is very fast.

In contrast, Mortarion was in charge of the poison course. The most significant result of this course was that more than half of the Death Guards would consciously poison their meals when eating.

Rumor has it that under Mortarion's instigation, they were testing drugs with Hades and betting on who could drug the commander. The bet has now reached an incredible number.

Although Hades has not shown any signs of poisoning so far, the commander did not even seem to realize that the meal was poisoned.

Vorx couldn't help but spit on these Death Guards in his heart for a second and felt sad for Hades. Mortarion, Garro, and those Death Guards were obviously looking for fun from Hades in their own way.

Only Vorx still insisted on guarding Hades' side, being Hades' strongest shield.

Although Senior Hades hasn't contacted him much recently, Vox thought dejectedly that Hades was running around in the lab under the Black Tower, the lab of the Endurance, the lab of the Foundry Hall, and the door of Mortarion's lab, ignoring the Death Guards.

Only those damned oil guys and those boring technical sergeants stayed with Hades every day.

Vox cursed in his heart again. If it wasn't too time-consuming to go to Mars, he would have learned one, so that at least Senior Hades wouldn't treat him with a certain [higher perspective].

By the way, under the instructions of Hades and Master Foundry Enrique, the second batch of Death Guards going to Mars have boarded the ship, and the Death Guards sent before will soon be back. It depends on whether they can catch up with the next battle of the Death Guards.

Although Vox was saddened by the fact that Hades only knew about research and development in the laboratory and had no idea what was happening in the legion, Vox expressed his understanding of Hades. After throwing away the identity of the commander, Hades himself He is an extremely good casting master.

So far, Hades has successfully contributed to the Death Guard

An improved super-heavy tank [Death Creeper] (greater firepower, thicker defense, more poisonous ammunition)

A kind of machine soul anti-personnel bomb [Nirvana] specially used for ships (it is strictly prohibited to disassemble it)

Two anti-psychic grenades with different principles [black bullets] and [white bullets] (very few people know, and those who equip them are only a few among the few. Walkers was lucky enough to get two)

A kind of flamethrower [will-o'-the-wisp] (the flame is corrosive, special attack on psykers, Mortarion generously provided the recipe)

A simple exoskeleton [Black Lady] (Special attack of Hades, recommended to be used with Wandering Soul brand green light dagger)

Vox is not a technical sergeant, and he does not understand these things, but he only knows that when he went to ask the technical sergeants in the Foundry Hall, the expressions of "he is not human" on the faces of the death guards.

From time to time, Hades would pull Vox with a mysterious expression on his face to try out new weapons in his armory. Usually, Hades would be surrounded by a circle of oil guys who were mumbling something, and the one on his robe The sage with the black stone looks particularly crazy.

Vox didn't like them. He carefully mentioned this matter to Hades in private, but Hades just smiled in relief after being stunned.

"I understand your worries, don't worry about it, I know about it, Vox. But thank you for reminding me."

What could he know? ! He didn't even know what was going on with the Death Guard, and Vox was very anxious. If he hadn't been involved, Vox would have almost revealed the private things about the Death Guard.

The generous senior Hades was deceived by everyone. After Vox returned, his conscience felt guilty for a long time, which caused him to not go to the fighting training department for a long time.

But when he went there again, Jialuo just glanced at Vox lightly, and then said something obscurely: "He saw and knew more than anyone else, and he is the one who should feel guilty." 】

Vox did not fully understand the meaning of Gallo's words, but he still decided to raise the status of Senior Hades in his heart to a higher level.

Jia Luo knocked on the door silently, and the familiar "Please come in" came from behind the door.

The combat company commander opened the door and saw Hades who was summarizing today's intelligence.

Compared to Vox, who writes a diary every day, Hades also has his own daily hobby, which is sorting out daily information.

Those little brats who thought they were hiding things well, Hades could find out everything they had hidden under their pillows.

Hades was sitting behind a large desk. He was still wearing a loose technical sergeant's vest, which was stained with engine oil. He looked like he had just come out of the laboratory and was dressed like a technical sergeant.

Although no one dared to underestimate him, Hades's desktop was covered with all kinds of intelligence and data, and Gallo knew that only two people in the Death Guard were qualified to view it.

Gallo walked skillfully to Hades' desk, stood and began to report the information, while Hades did not raise his head and continued to check and summarize the documents.

After the report, Gallo fell silent, and a hollow feeling arose in the room, with only the rustling sound of Hades turning over the paper.

Hades did not let him go, so Garro continued to wait in this silence.

"There's going to be a war."

Hades said in a voice close to a whisper.

Jia Luo nodded solemnly. It was fast. According to the pace of the Great Expedition, the Death Guard had been staying here for a long time.

After a long sigh, Hades spoke,

"As of today, the Death Guard has stayed in Barbarus for two hundred and ninety-three days, and has reached cooperative relationships with thirty-seven worlds, and direct relationships with nine worlds. Among these nine worlds, there are two hives. Worlds, four worlds of death, one world of minerals, and two worlds of plains.”

"Most of them are treaties signed by me, you, Vox and mortal officials. Mortarion is responsible for signing the conscription of the dead world."

The four death worlds are the dry land full of rocks, the eternal night desert full of strong acid, the rolling ocean where the storm is raging, and the erupting volcano with the undercurrent of magma.

Hades was very curious about why these four worlds of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix could be divided into one and next to Barbarus, but this was no longer important. According to the contract, the Death Guard would establish several human settlements on these planets. settlements and declare imperial tax exemptions for them.

And they need to assure the Death Guard that those who want to fight and strive for progress will join the Legion, and the Death Guard will use these four planets as training places for recruits. Candidates from other worlds will learn tenacity on these four planets. the true meaning of.

Due to the rapid construction and the fact that Hades has been promoting population statistics, the recruitment age of the Death Guard in Barbarus and Galaspa is getting older and earlier. Before the operation, these children who want to join the Death Guard , they have enough time to be tempered.

"Today, the number of ships in the Barbarus star field has reached a balance. Even if the empire does not officially admit it, Barbarus has become the hub world of this star field."

Hades paused;

"Gaara, do you think this is a good thing?"

Gallo stared at Hades,

"I have always thought that you are not someone who worries about whether things are good or bad."

Hades laughed, but the smile did not enter his eyes. In an instant, he became serious again,

"Yes, that's the case. In any case, Barbarus is indeed developing and driving this star field, but this also means that it is easier to be targeted and attacked -"

"I believe in the galaxy defense system set up by Lord Mortarion."

Hades opened his eyes wide in surprise and said slowly,

".you are right"

"Okay," Hades shrugged, "Anyway, the empire's order should be coming soon, we just need to wait."

"I still hope that the black ship that came with the order did not pull anything, although they gave me a surprise last time and gave us some gifts."

Hades returned to his indifferent attitude, blabbing about Malcador's evil intentions and suggesting treasonous words such as dog fighting.

"It's okay, Jia Luo, you go and do your work first."

Hades issued an eviction order.

Gallo didn't move, he looked deeply at Hades,

"Don't stress too much."

He said.

Hades once again opened his eyes in surprise, and then immediately started acting. Those who saw him for the first time would probably be deceived, but Gallo could no longer do it.

Hades exaggeratedly covered his eyes with his hands and began to moan,

"Still, Jialuo, you understand me! This happens every day! They even drugged me! They drugged me immediately, and they didn't even get more food to drug me with! They even sold my information, and they sold it! That guy from Walkers bought it What a shame! He kept it from me!"

"Only you, Garro, only you! Can you give me some warmth in the cold Death Guard-"

"stop."

Gallo said,

"Or I'll drag you out from behind your desk and beat you up."

Hades recovered instantly and sat on his chair solemnly, as if nothing happened.

"You shouldn't be so violent, Gaara."

"Then you shouldn't put so much pressure on yourself, Hades."

"Barbarus' diplomacy, mediation with the Mechanicus, research and development of new equipment, and training of talents. You have done enough."

"Actually," Hades said seriously, "I assigned most of the tasks directly and did not do them myself."

"Moreover, Mortarion, you, Vox, and the Death Guard headed by Obiri have completed the main body of these tasks, and the mortal archons have also helped us a lot."

"Mortarion presided over the establishment of the defense system of the entire star field. Vox presided over the new round of recruitment of three planets. When I was held back by the Mechanicum, you were responsible for most of the daily affairs of the legion. ”

"But you followed up and supervised them throughout the process. Moreover, just one task of connecting with the Mechanicus is already a huge workload. On top of this, you are also responsible for other matters and managing the entire legion. information."

Gaara retorted expressionlessly.

Hades seemed to be discouraged and lay directly on the desk with his upper body. The official documents instantly overwhelmed him.

"Okay, everything you said is right, yes, yes, yes, yes."

Cover yourself with a small quilt under the bridge hole, and say yes, yes, yes to everyone you meet.

"I know what we may face in the future, Hades, we all know it."

Jia Luozi said carefully,

"But I feel that you are more afraid of it than anyone else. You are still afraid in your heart, aren't you? I didn't notice this before because you have always been calm and calm in front of other people. Calm.”

"But I think if it weren't for fear, no one could work so hard in a relatively stable environment. Hades, I don't know how to describe it, but your workload is like a monster chasing you behind you. Same."

Hades' muffled voice came from the official document,

"You are wrong, Gaara, you are wrong."

"When you have nothing, when reality remains, there is nothing to care about."

"But" Hades weakly raised a hand, and the image of Barbarus was immediately projected on the table. In the hands of technology and nature, this planet is now quite beautiful.

"Construction has begun, development has begun, and I cannot tolerate it being destroyed any more."

Hades rubbed his head in the document sadly, muttering something like this is weakness, how come the damn cesspit has become fragrant and other nonsense.

War makes people have no time to think about other things, but under the long river of stable time, facing the possible future, in this rare and rare time, Hades always hopes to do a little more, and a little more.

After all, there will never be a day when you are fully prepared, but every time you prepare more bullets, you will have one more possibility.

Garro said stiffly, "I believe in Lord Mortarion's galaxy defense system."

Hades waved his hand,

"You and I both know I mean more than that."

"Then let's go back to our original topic. You've done your best."

Gallo stepped forward, pressed Hades's shoulder, and patted him. At this moment, Gallo once again became the big brother who led Hades into the legion, instead of being a social beast waiting to die calmly among the documents.

Although this change was largely due to the commander in front of him.

"Hades, you taught me a lot about responsibility and construction. Once upon a time, I firmly believed that expedition for the Empire was everything, war and blood, resistance and destruction, but you showed me another possibility, another path that the Empire can embark on."

"Although I hate the documents I need to review for this, I hope you won't assign me any more."

Garro quickly read this sentence and continued expressionlessly,

"You may not realize it, but I know how many things you have changed, how many people you have changed, you have done enough, you have brought them the present, you don't have to ask yourself whether you can bring the future."

"Hades, you know a lot, you know everything in the Death Guard, but what you don't know is your weight in the Death Guard, and the silent changes that the Death Guard has made for you."

Hades raised his hand and motioned Garro to stop.

"Change, do you mean telling each other jokes?"

Hades sneered, as if mocking himself.

Garo looked at Hades indifferently, his face unchanged and serious.

"Your consciousness is too superficial, Hades. You haven't taken the various changes in the legion seriously, or treated them equally. You always think that you are guiding the legion as a superior."

"Isn't it?"

Hades whispered.

"Perhaps you arrogantly think that you have changed the Death Guard, Hades, but in fact, the Death Guard welcomes you."

"They welcome you, and they recognize you for all the efforts you have made and all the efforts you will make."

"If the Death Guard does not recognize you, no matter how many policies there are, they will only be empty words."

"Don't you realize that you don't look like a Death Guard?"

Garo aimed at the key points and killed them with one blow.

"So the Death Guard is also trying to change themselves. We hope you can integrate into this legion."

If Garo is asked to summarize the so-called quotes to Hades, Garo will only summarize one.

That is to tell the truth and tear off Hades's usual unreliable shell.

In fact, Hades himself may not realize that he is the type of person who is warm on the outside but cold on the inside, because only a heart of stone can remain calm in the face of strong winds and heavy rains, and can decisively choose the most likely path in the midst of human suffering.

Only when everyone is shocked and frightened by the facts can he remain calm and hold the rudder tightly.

If Hades is really an enthusiast, he would have been defeated by reality long ago.

And Garro knows that only the most sincere truth can touch the coldest soul.

"The Death Guard welcomes you, so do I, so do Vorcus, so do Lord Mortarion, and so do those Death Guards. Although you often walk among the Death Guard, you still feel that no one in the Death Guard can reach your level, right?"

"So the Death Guard is trying to change itself, Hades, I think you should be aware of all this, the Death Guard is trying to catch up with you, or rather, welcome you."

As expected, Hades completely crashed and issued a meaningless monosyllabic question tone.

"... Forget it, forget it... Master, don't recite it, don't recite it."

Garro crossed his arms and watched Hades waver with satisfaction, and finally broke through the defense.

"Don't have too much pressure. You have done enough to make Barbarus what it is now, and the Death Guard what it is now. If you need help, the Death Guard is always waiting - not just when you order us as a commander."

Then Garro left, with the attitude of a winner, with an inexplicable, great revenge.

Little bastard, he thought, Barbarus's little bastard, no matter how powerful you are, it was Garro who chose you back then, and finally let you fall into the pit.

Garro could feel that after entering the Death Guard, Hades had been looking down on them from a certain perspective of a superior.

But now, today, Garro united all the Death Guards and the thriving Barbarus, and successfully pulled Hades off the altar.

Come down, little bastard, Garro thought, when I was fighting on Terra, you were not born yet.

Also, the Death Guard welcomes you.

I wrote this late at night, so it might be a bit sentimental... I've written it, and I'll explain it again, and prepare to start the next plot.

If you think it's not good, just ignore this chapter! ()
