Chapter 257 Military Wedding

The Skadi people were crazy. Some members of the Imperial Guard who knew the situation, such as the foreign garrison personnel, all commented that when Alanbair made his bad behavior public, most people outside the Skadi people knew that the war was coming and despised those who threw the Emperor's honor behind their backs and sold their souls for profit.

But at such a tense moment, what they held in their legs was not a declaration of war, a tactical plan or a mobilization request, but an invitation, an invitation dedicated to the heroes of the Skadi.

It was too bad to say whether it was a cover-up or a tactical mistake. The Skadi people wanted to bless the strange couple from the bottom of their hearts, without hesitation or hesitation. Even if the war was coming and the fate was full of ups and downs, these people were like the nomads who lived on war on Terra in the past. They were not afraid of war and even regarded it as a part of their lives.

That special feeling could not be fully understood even by the Destroying Eagle. Why did they organize a wedding at such a time of mobilization?

Whether doubt, blessing, trust, recognition, people came to that unique hall in those emotions and many interests. It was the camp that belonged to the Imperial Guard, and it was the most suitable place for those ruthless people.

In the piled sandbags, bunkers, barbed wire and training equipment, and in front of the imperial engines, rows of Lemanus tanks, Hydra anti-aircraft tanks, and many terrible metal monsters, the simple camp was decorated with various fake plastic flowers, or with shells hanging on strange wind chimes.

It was not the first wedding after the liberation of Skadi, but the first wedding of the Skadi Fourth Infantry Regiment, representing the new flowers of rebirth and hope blooming in a place full of death. It was only tomorrow that many Catachans surrounded that place, and the originally solid camp was checked again.

Every guest must be strictly checked, not only because the Lord of Skadi will also come there, but also because the Skadi infantry, the soldiers of Fraxia, they will not allow anyone to move their legs and feet in the most important month of their family!

Since ancient Terra, the marriage month representing mankind has been grand, although with the huge population of tens of billions of people in the empire and the constant threat of war from the enemy, the feelings of the people in the empire towards weddings have become increasingly weak.

But that does not mean that weddings are no longer important to human civilization. On the contrary, when it is celebrated, the grandeur and grandeur of the event can exceed many previous times.

Soon, the guests gathered and the seats were full. Under the gaze of the emperor, the light shone from the colored glass. The carefully crafted dais was carved with heads representing purity. People gathered there. Every guest wore military uniforms without exception. They were tall and straight and their morale was high. If there was an exception, there was probably a girl named Arya and the old man beside her.

They watched the priests gradually stepping into the stage. Sweet cakes and delicious food were waiting in the square outside the camp. The boy Leitlin hurriedly changed into his military uniform and sat on the bench. His comrades around him were used to his stench and frowned slightly.

Sergeant Major Catachan walked beside him, changing his previous appearance of being shirtless or wearing short sleeves. Even when he was operating in the cold Skadi, he would wear as light clothes as possible, but only today, he followed the Imperial Army's requirements and wore a school-level uniform, full of vigor.

There was a lot of silence until the ceremonial officer shouted. "To the bride!"

Behind the stage, a tall beauty was slowly moved forward, supported by the bridesmaid, the girl of the Mechanicus, and the Skadi and Fulaksi technical priest. It was clear that she had shed the hostility of the battlefield, leaving a beautiful long hair, matched with the Empire's luxurious dark gold dress, capable but engraved in the bone marrow. There was no doubt that she, the bride, was so beautiful, who could get her favor?

"To the groom!" After the high-pitched voice, the lieutenant, supported by the Lord of Skadi, Alanbaier, stepped into the place in a beautiful and capable military uniform. The sound of military boots knocked on the steps, and on his chest was the countless honors he had won from life-and-death struggles.

Those glittering badges became brighter at this moment under the silver light of the glass, because that wedding not only represented the union of two people, but also the lieutenant had to take over the honor and future of Flaccia on behalf of his own man. It was not a traditional wedding, but more complicated but more simple.

The two looked at each other. The two who had experienced countless wars had never experienced such a scene. Their cheeks quickly turned red. At the same time, the veteran who served as the pastor of the state church asked.

"Lieutenant Skadi, am I willing to take over all the honors and command of the 113th Regiment of Flaccia and not disgrace those histories?"

The groom replied. "He is willing!"

"Then, Miss Carlis Arkady, I am willing to put aside my responsibilities, enjoy the remaining grace, life and peace bestowed upon me by the Emperor, and hand them over to your lover?"

The bride replied. "He is willing!"

"Then, exchange tokens." The priest shouted, and the bride took off her dog tag and the dog tag of the first generation leader of the 133rd Regiment of Furaxia. The two pieces of metal products were surprisingly thick. It was not a specific weight, but it was indeed a real burden.

The lieutenant lowered his head. When the metal touched his neck, the young man almost suffocated, but when he made the decision to marry that complicated woman, he had already made up his mind. He knelt gently on one knee and put the gem ring representing love (in the darkest era of mankind's future, diamonds have been recognized as useless, but gems are still long-lasting and precious) on the girl's ring finger.

Soon, the two hugged and kissed each other. Tens of thousands of soldiers and people gathered outside the auditorium burst into violent applause at this moment.

The sound that represents vitality shakes the whole castle, as if it will never dissipate, just like the beating of the heart, like people in the Ming Dynasty who have many thoughts, but can have the same purpose tomorrow, that moment, then it loses the charm of civilization.

The official spoke. "Please ask their best man, Skadi's master, to say a few words."

Alan Bayer was thinking about the slightly strange wedding at the moment, because in that era, whether men and women were really equal, he would be one of the thousands of people sacrificed by the emperor, so he would no longer deny the man's "grantment". The mutual "exchange" can be compared to the "dead souls of the old times". Those things look both solemn and strange.

He still blessed that event from the bottom of his heart. Secondly, the speech had been given to him so many times that he no longer needed any manuscripts, preparations, and was not timid.

He stepped forward. In that hall and the outer camp, tens of thousands of people were quiet and there was no other sound. Even the two most excited ruthless men were looking at the legendary warrior.

"Every warrior who fought in the Emperor's Honor Palace knows very well that tomorrow will be a truly memorable month. For him, every warrior is his family, and he has experienced too much. Victory, Failure, death, these things are mixed together, making him pay special attention to each of us. "

"Although the Skadi Infantry Regiment has been established for a long time, he still feels this way, and tomorrow, his child, the second lieutenant whom he regards as his child, will step into the wedding hall. It is worth remembering, but he wants to say it directly, that There is cruelty behind this wedding, and the background of war.”

"So he blessed that wedding and didn't want it to happen again. He wanted all his family to be safe from war and death, and he worked hard to do that for a long time."

"He hopes that the honor and light of the Emperor will always shine in the skies of Skadi. He hopes that people with feelings can gather here. He hopes that war and death, heretics or aliens will never interfere with their lives again, but that is almost No, he knew, they could just shoot, attack, kill, again and again, until the galaxy was empty."

"But he doesn't intend to give up. Everyone, he wishes the newlyweds good luck. At the same time, he hopes that no one in Jidong will be threatened at the wedding. Otherwise, they will take up arms again and attack the enemy. ”

"War does not distinguish between good or evil. They need to live and be safe. He will not be satisfied until their roar is known to everyone in the galaxy, and until Skadi becomes a place where people no longer dare to offend!"

"So he can keep asking, struggling, fighting, and waiting until something succeeds. Even if it takes hundreds or thousands of years, he still wants that thing to succeed. One day, they can celebrate life without enemies. Request any moment until the stars burn out and the universe dies!"

"Now, now, let them bless that wedding, bless the beginning of life, and look forward to the future." He breathed heavily and his anger was exerted at this moment and infected most people. They must admit that there is nothing better than safety in life. What is even more irritating about being threatened, coupled with the intelligence provided by the inquisitor before, will completely ignite the anger of the Skadi people tomorrow.

The second lieutenant wore a uniform and held the palm of Alan Beyer's leg. He reported to his superiors seriously. "He will be responsible for ensuring that what happened tomorrow will never happen again. His superiors will not protect his children, his ruthless people, and his brothers."

In one word, applause, the applause roared for a long time and madly, until tired and the voice stopped, the priest began to sing. Those emperor's mantras protected the two people who were still in harmony and peace in the dark 40 thousand years of mankind. They had a long appearance, but no one Don't listen quietly until the starlight hangs to noon and the stained glass shines eastward.

People left in an orderly manner and went to the courtyard to enjoy food or rest, to celebrate and commemorate the few confinements, and at the same time prepare for the beginning of the war.

The wedding was as complicated as its performance. It represented Skadi's rebirth and danger. The strong contrast highlighted the tragic situation of the Empire and made people have to admit that Skadi's Very unsafe.

That kind of gap seems to close the door to heaven, but the people of Skadi have experienced worse confinement. They are optimistic and drink and chat outside, even if the cold weather and harsh environment are making things worse, even if the food is because the temperature has dropped Even if the taste becomes slightly worse, they will happily enjoy their confinement.

Whether it is a trench or a nest, it is not a fortress. Those strong people have not changed, and they will not change in the future. Although it is cruel and of course sad, at the end of the 40th millennium of human civilization in that dark universe, no one can Isolate yourself from the most tragic things.

If Skadi doesn't stand up, then the bad things that happened in Ruming will happen in the weaker imperial world. Several navigation blockades, several oppressions, and those poor people will starve to death for no reason. The original strict class issue And to be even more exaggerated, resources will be brought into Ndjili Bay without limit, bringing unlimited prosperity to its owner...

During that time, the glimmer of hope brought by Skadi will also be extinguished by those profit-seeking demons. To make matters worse, those people will not be able to collude with the Red Pirates and open the way for them to the Sun Star Territory and go to the Holy Land. Terra tarnishes humanity's ancient stars!

Therefore, the entire sector was angry that time. With the help of that wedding, the most beautiful moment of the ensign's life was turned into a sad political show. Alan Beyer walked backstage and cleaned his cheeks with ice water in despair. He had achieved something. Will he use his brother's life to gain benefits?

He has become a person who will benefit from his brother's life!

He smiled bitterly, his eyes were wet, and water kept dripping down. He looked like he was crying, but suddenly the second lieutenant patted him on the shoulder, and he immediately adjusted his condition. "Isn't that the lucky one for them?"

The second lieutenant said. "Don't lie to him. I don't like that at all. I like a small wedding where I can have friends and comrades, and bring John and his family with me. That's the best at most."

"To be honest, he doesn't like it either, isn't he? He's a ruthless person, so what? At that sensitive time, they knew each other early and talked to each other."

"His commander, they deny my sharp blade, just as he said, they deny the future of mankind. They are willing to sacrifice everything, especially the wonderful place of Skadi. Just a wedding is nothing. "

"It doesn't matter if I begged him to do something even more pathetic. Without me, they would have nothing now."

Alan Bayer said no to the ensign's sighing comment. "I praise him too highly. He would have accomplished nothing without us. He is not Celestine, nor Kane, nor a strong man gifted by the Emperor. His life will always be taken risks. He He was a gambler, and that time, he felt he didn’t need to gamble anymore.”

"But the universe wants to pull him back, to a place where human lives are used as bargaining chips!"

The ensign held the ball of his leg. "Then continue to gamble. The entire star region, the entire Skadi, and the entire Fourth Regiment will still accompany me in gambling. Just bet to win. Even if you win in the dark universe, you won't dare to gamble away. They will win, and they will win big. win."

"And he, and they, will continue, continue to climb on the edge of death with the dark moon, until the light really fades."

"No to the emperor, no to them, no to me, his boss."

Alan Bayer looked at the young man who was going through the most important confinement period in his life and showed that wry smile. "Prepare a handful of coffee for him and keep going. It seems that their good confinement is over."
