Chapter 119: As long as I can turn the bones into ashes
"No problem, leave it to me." Facing the request from Captain Martins, Gu Hang patted his chest and promised, "You are in Fuxing City... No, it can even be farther away. In short, within the scope of the entire Angry Owl Star, no matter who you like, just tell me and I will promise to send them to you."
There were only two hundred young men, but Gu Hang made things very convenient for them.
This can be considered as the reward that the Phoenix has to pay for helping me fight the war.
According to the tradition of the chapter, they will train these two hundred young men seriously, and after a period of training, they will choose the most outstanding lucky boy under the age of nineteen to undergo gene seed implantation surgery.
The rest will continue to stay in the training camp; those who are over 19 and not selected will not be released, but will be transferred to the auxiliary personnel of the regiment. In different regiments, the treatment and name of these people are different. According to the tradition of Phoenix, they will be called "down feathers" and will fight together with the Space Marines. The maintenance techniques of power armor, bolt guns, and chainswords they have learned, as well as the combat tactical qualities they have acquired in training, will not be wasted.
However, there was always a melancholy look on Martins' face.
This matter made him too anxious and worried.
If the seed implantation is successful, that would be a good thing. The Chapter would have new blood, and this new blood would produce a new gene seed in five years, which would be new blood again. If it is successful again, then in five years there would be another one...
But if we fail... then there will only be six veterans left of the Phoenix seeds in the entire universe.
Martins couldn't help but take this seriously.
He said to Gu Hang, "I hope everything goes well. The regiment... can't afford to fail. I hope you can help me by then, and find a way to support a batch of professional equipment for implant surgery. Although it can be done now, Pastor Rizzo is not a professional pharmacist. If we can have the help of high-quality equipment, the success rate will increase."
"I really want to help you, but it depends on whether there are similar goods when the interstellar merchants arrive at the Wrathful Owl Star next time. If there are, I will help you get them."
"Thank you very much."
"As you should. I promised to support you in rebuilding the regiment."
After the brief exchange after the funeral, Gu Hang said goodbye.
Before leaving, he saw a bald soldier coming to see Martins. The soldier's eyes were fixed on Martins until he boarded the helicopter and flew far away.
…
After attending the funeral at the Space Marines' monastery, Gu Hang went to the battle sisters.
They didn't hold any funeral or mourning, but simply preserved the bodies of the two sisters properly.
The headquarters of the Sisters of the Holy Mercy Lily is on the planet Koroja 3 in the Pegasus region. They will bring the bodies of the sisters with them on their return journey, and a funeral will be held in the church at the headquarters.
As the planetary governor, Gu Hang expressed his gratitude and condolences to the Sister Abbess. In the subsequent conversation, he also roughly understood what they were going to do next.
After two people died, Grit would definitely not let it go.
She and her sisters planned to follow the line of the original Angry Owl Sect and bite it hard.
Gu Hang expressed some concerns. Judging from their previous performance, those cultists should not be underestimated. When they reach Cui Kao's level, they can actually threaten the safety of the head nun. Especially after they finish the investigation of the cult in Fuxing City, they will turn to other places to find the cultists' lair, which will be even more dangerous. Gu Hang may not be able to provide support at any time.
However, Grit herself remains optimistic about this.
According to some intelligence obtained previously, Trikao has a very high status in the entire Original Wrathful Owl Sect. The highest power structure in the entire sect is the so-called High Priest Council. There are only six people called High Priests, and only two of them can be crowned with the title of "Original".
One has died in Fuxing City, and the remaining one is not invincible.
In fact, if it was a fair fight, Grit didn't think that a psychic of Trikao's level was her opponent. The reason why the previous battle was so fierce was mainly because Trikao was fighting at home.
The wind farm was a ritual site, and they had been preparing there for more than a year. The disgusting wind wall and the incarnation of the angry owl were all products of the ritual site.
If it was just Trikao himself, Grit felt that the opponent could not withstand three of her attacks.
"I want these cultists to pay back my sister's blood debt a hundredfold!"
"It should be a thousand times, ten thousand times." Gu Hang agreed.
Hearing this, Grit was quite satisfied.
She said to Gu Hang with a serious face: "Your Excellency Governor, in the name of the Holy Order of the State Religion and the Holy Lily Sisters, I formally request your assistance. I need you and your forces to do everything in your power to provide the necessary assistance for us to search for and eliminate the cultists!"
After saying that, she took out a slightly yellowed piece of paper.
Gu Hang took it and glanced at it. The content written on it was roughly the same as what Grit said, except that the wording was more formal and written.
This is a letter of cooperation, signed with Grit's name, her position in the state church, and a wax seal in the lower right corner.
Gu Hang's expression also became serious: "I accept your request. I will provide you with the help you need. I will set up a corresponding contact person, and Political Commissar Thadius will be responsible for the connection work. He will be one of my military commanders in the future. Once you need anything, contact him directly. I will authorize him to provide you with the supplies, investigation assistance, and military strike support you need."
"Thank you, Your Excellency the Governor. I have sent a request to the headquarters of the order. In a month, another team of battle sisters will come to support us. We will definitely eradicate those cultists completely!"
"I should thank you."
…
To be honest, Gu Hang was a little surprised by Grace's decision.
He thought that these nuns would return to the starship after the battle.
But the cult crisis that broke out in Renaissance City is bigger than expected, and it is the duty of the combat nuns to eliminate the cult members.
They also lost two battle sisters, which was a great stimulus and ignited the fire of revenge in Grit, who was determined to fight the original Angry Owl Sect to the end.
Of course, Gu Hang supported this decision.
Those heretics were also the targets he wanted to attack with all his strength, and the two sides had become enemies who would never give up. Now, with the help of a team of professional anti-heresy experts, Gu Hang couldn't wait to welcome them.
As for the support she asked for?
Give! Give all!
As long as we can scatter the ashes of those cultists, I’ll give you whatever you want!
