Chapter 1159 The Secret of the First Legion (Part 1)
"Um!?"
Soshyan was a little surprised when he heard Azriel mention the black armored men. He did not expect that the organization to which Sevita would appear in front of Azriel. Obviously, the Dark Angel must have some special features compared to other battle groups, or they also have huge secrets.
However, at the moment, he had not yet figured out Azriel's attitude, so he chose to deal with it with caution.
He frowned in discomfort and asked back.
"What does the Black Armored Man mean? Did you meet the commander of the Azriel Battle? What do they look like?"
"What? What do you mean...more than one person?"
"Uh...I don't understand what you mean, so I asked."
Azriel stared at Soshyan and said in a deep voice:
"Captain Soshiyang, I hope we can be more frank and not pretend to be ignorant."
Realizing that the other party was about to get angry, Soshiyang coughed lightly.
"Okay, what does he look like."
"Wearing a lion helmet."
"The lion helmet...I haven't seen it, I've only seen those wearing jackal and crow helmets, so I'm not sure if it's the ones you're asking."
Azriel's brow frowned, and Soshiyan's answer made him realize that things might not be simple. At first he thought it was a new association or group of fallen angels, but Soshiyan's description did not seem to be.
"Do you know those people?"
"Don't know."
Soshyan shook his head, the sincerity on his face made Azriel unable to see anything.
"But I guess it might be an organization."
Soshiyan then described the details of these black-armored men.
"Um."
After listening, Azriel nodded.
"From the description of dress, they really look like an organization, then-"
“Brother Azriel, I have a problem too.”
Soshiyan interrupted the other party.
"How did you know I've seen those people?"
Azriel hesitated, opened his mouth, but did not say a word, but Soshiyan guessed it.
"What did that person tell you?"
Azriel chose to remain silent, and then Soshyan thought for a moment and asked:
"So...you know him."
Speaking of this, Soshyan paused for a while, and a thought circling in his mind that making Azriel so nervous and important means that the identity of the person who appeared in front of him was extremely difficult.
Such a person has a high probability of only one identity.
However, when he told the secret in front of Azriel, Soshiyan didn't know if there would be any risks, so he chose a roundabout statement.
"He should... have some connection with your group in the past, right?"
Azriel is not a fool either. Soshiyan has clearly known something when he talks about this.
In fact, he also knew very well that the battle group had been hunting for so many years and had caused many storms. If people don’t know at all, it would be completely self-deception.
At least many battle groups with a long history know that the Dark Angels are hunting, but they just don’t understand the deeper history.
So after careful consideration, the supreme mentor of the Dark Angel planned to see how much the other party knew and then decide what to say next.
"Captain Soshyan, then how much do you... know about us?"
Upon hearing this, a lot of information immediately appeared in Soshiyan's mind, most of which were told by Seveta and Talos, but more secret information was revealed by Thor. He seemed to have specifically investigated the First Legion. He had a deep understanding of the matter of the First Legion in the past and had a clear understanding of the ins and outs of the matter.
In his spare time, Soshiyan often asked them for the secrets of the Legion of the Great Expedition, so he knew much more than he was at his age.
For example, the origin of the Dark Angel.
A long time ago, Caliban was a death world located near the Eye of Fear. The planetary surface was covered with dense forests. Caliban was colonized by humans as early as the Golden Age. However, the subspace storm that ravaged the galaxy in the age of disputes isolated Caliban from the world, and Caliban's human civilization also degenerated to a semi-feudal state.
Before the Great Expedition arrived at Caliban, the human society in Caliban still maintained the characteristics of medieval feudal society - human settlements were distributed in the forest, the ruling nobles lived in castles, and the civilians carried out agricultural production and life under the protection of the nobles.
However, there is no reason why Caliban was classified as a world of death by the empire. The forest environment was very dangerous. The forest not only contained various deadly animals and plants, but also giant beasts distorted by subspace pollution. For this reason, the Caliban nobles established knight orders in the huge monastery fortresses in many large settlements. These knights were equipped with more primitive and ancient armor, with pistols and sword blades being their standard equipment.
When wild beasts raid settlements, the noble leaders will announce a hunting expedition, and the knights will respond to the call, search and kill the beasts, complete the expedition, and defend the Caliban people. This is the lifestyle of countless generations of Calibans.
However, what really changed the fate of Caliban and the Knights was the arrival of a demigod.
The gene protozona Ryan Alzonson arrived at Caliban, who lived alone in the sinister Caliban forest for ten years until one day he met another destined man.
At that time, Luther, the knight of the Knights, was patrolling the forest with his companions. While they were resting, a savage walked out of the forest. Luther's companions were very surprised and thought it was a wild beast and wanted to kill it. However, Luther saw that this person was unique. Then Luther brought the savage back to the Knights and gave him the name of Ryan Alzonson, meaning "the lion, son of the forest".
Soon, the extraordinary ability displayed by the Primrose quickly became the great mentor of the Knights and unified Caliban by destroying the giant beasts.
But it was at that time that Leon's break with his adoptive father Luthor laid the groundwork because he appointed a lord of Ceffer. (Seveta)
When he heard this, Soshiyan felt very strange about why the First Primarch appointed Lord Seifer to conflict with the adoptive father.
Seveta explained that the Lord Sefe appointed by Leon at that time was an unknown person, a young man with no achievements. This was a simple and clumsy political trick, but undoubtedly represented a signal - Leon chose a person who had no relationship with the senior knight or master of the Order, who was only loyal to him and would put Zhuang Sen's best interests above everything else.
Simply put, the Lion King does not fully trust the people within the Knights.
Then, when the Emperor descended on Caliban, the former Knights naturally became part of the First Legion, and Leon's power further expanded.
When Soshiyan asked what happened to Caliban, both Talos and Seveta gave the same answer, which was actually the ones recorded in the archives, Luther betrayed the Primrose and the Empire.
