Chapter 315 The Seeds of Civilization and the Choice of Human Affairs
The attempt to learn and master the "inscription" like Wu is not accidental, but it is not what Calvin expected.
He has been human twice, and he has not had the opportunity to observe the special role of words in the development of a race over hundreds and thousands of years, and naturally did not stop the Grey Knights from "learning" and "applying".
But the reason why words are words is that in addition to carrying information, they actually represent the most basic way of thinking of a race.
Even in this bizarre universe, words are given too much idealistic color;
But it is undeniable that its ultimate meaning of existence still has to return to the two basic functions described above.
The "inscription"'s time-detached observation angle and the logic of holistic presentation make the Grey Knights' thinking and cognition gradually different from mortals and even immortal races after long-term use. It was only later that he gradually discovered it.
This is a coincidence among coincidences, because without the Grey Knights' psychic talent, they would not have the opportunity to come into contact with this kind of words;
And without Calvin's legion will, their individual will strength would not be able to withstand this level of information impact.
The fact that this kind of god-like thinking can be established is inseparable from the support of the Grey Knights' psychic talents and Calvin's Legion Will.
In this idealistic universe, what is more difficult to change than matter is precisely the natural thinking mode of the race based on its own flesh and blood;
It determines the soul quality of the members of this race, and even determines the upper limit of this race.
The arrival of Calvin gave birth to this kind of writing;
This kind of writing, spread by the blood of the Emperor, allows humans, a race with hidden psychic talents, to release their full potential;
In turn, Calvin's Legion Will, in the "release" link, ensures that humans are steadily and orderly on the road to realizing their psychic talents.
They have not gone astray, like the Eldar, who use desire as the direction of talent release;
They have not suddenly exploded when there is no way out, and become the target of prey for other higher beings.
All three are indispensable, and they complement each other by chance...
So when this text gradually spreads among the Grey Knights, and even when all Grey Knights are promoted, it eventually becomes a part of the Legion's existence that is so strong that it cannot be shaken;
This text eventually begins to spread to all psychics, bringing a wider impact, which is something that Calvin, the original creator of the "inscription", did not expect.
This is all later, so I won't mention it here for now.
The file on the Ulysses sector did not stay in the hands of the two for long. Not long after the mortal judge left, it was delivered to Calvin along with the files collected by other tribunals.
These screened and collected files are roughly divided into three categories, and the covers of the files are also marked with three different colors according to different importance and timeliness.
The first category of files is marked in yellow, representing what Calvin needs to know.
Although such events are important, Calvin usually does not need to intervene or express his opinion. In most cases, the reporting of such files is just the product of the tribunal's respect for his right to know.
The second category of files is marked in orange, which usually means that the monitored incidents in certain areas are beginning to deteriorate, or some incidents that have been handled are beginning to recur.
Most of these files have been handled by the Inquisition based on its own experience and internal procedures.
However, due to risk considerations, it is still necessary to complete the filing in the hands of the person in charge at the star field level, so that after all the parties involved are killed, there are still people who can understand the specific details of the incident.
The third category of files is the most difficult and is usually marked in red.
In fact, the matters represented by these files that cannot be solved after layers of screening and are reported to Calvin step by step are the real work of Calvin as the person in charge at the star field level.
Such as the review of the extermination order at the galaxy level;
The signing of the crusade document for a certain star region or even a sector-level administrative region that is identified as a heretic;
The support and allocation of the armed forces of the star field authorities in a certain direction of the battlefield;
And finally, together with colleagues in other star fields, accept the work guidance and orders from the headquarters in the direction of Terra.
Calvin now has such a document from Terra in his hand, but his identity is here, and this document certainly cannot be described in the tone of command.
The content of this document describes the suppression process of the rebellion war in the Jotun sector near the Orpheus sector during Calvin's absence from the High Lords' Council, and the series of personnel changes that resulted from it.
The Empire's suppression of the rebellion there was not smooth, which was deeply related to the tyranny of the Imperial Governor.
The local rebels themselves have a deeper mass base than the Imperial troops drawn from outside, and the subsequent commanders who took over the war did not have enough patience.
After more than a decade of suppression, the number of rebels in the Jotun sector has increased, and the Empire's controllable area there has become smaller and smaller.
The sector is losing patience with the ineffective war here. If the endless investment of troops and materials cannot be stopped, then the people here will only be waiting for a cruel extermination order.
Under this background, it is normal to replace the incompetent person in charge, and it is also appropriate to establish a higher-level joint command system on the original combat organization.
Calvin did not pay attention to these, but on the basis that the war was not going well and the turbulent thoughts began to spread to the surrounding star regions;
The Imperial Senate decided to cut the Gordian knot and invest enough power to solve the problem at one time.
In short, a war lord will be appointed in this star region full of war and death.
This is undoubtedly an extraordinary way of handling, especially in the absence of Calvin, the permanent seat, it can be called a model of high efficiency.
Coincidentally, in the candidate list of this war lord, Calvin happened to see the name of Juan Nelson, the former Imperial Navy Admiral High Lord and the current Governor of the Hassan Star Region, who he had just appointed.
Whose proposal is this? Calvin continued to read patiently, and as expected, he saw the signatures of several "acquaintances" in the recommendation column behind Juan Nelson's name.
What does this mean?
Are you saying that I will promote the people that you, Calvin, cannot promote?
Or are you saying that the meritorious officials that you, Calvin, cannot place, will have a better future under my command?
In any case, this kind of implicit provocation and almost blatant means of division made him clearly sense the malice from the other party.
Calvin rubbed his chin for a long time without saying anything. After a long silence, he looked at the texts that were still warm from Terra and smiled.
Is it because he has been a good guy for a short time since he was promoted, giving others a wrong understanding?
Or did they forget what unit they were facing and really think that the Tribunal was made of mud?
He wanted to see if anyone under his command dared to jump out at this time and stroke his tiger whiskers.
Only thunderous means can show the heart of a bodhisattva. This truth does not need to be taught by others, and Calvin knows it.
The smile on Calvin's face was restrained in the next moment with the order in his mouth. When the adjutant walked in front of him, there was only a cold look left.
"Telegram to the Terran Senate that I agree with the proposal to appoint a war lord for the Zordon Rebellion. As for the candidate for this position, let's choose Juan Nelson. He is very good, and I cautiously agree with the opinion of Prime Minister Winston."
