When Soshyan called him, the former Assassin of Callidus stood up and bowed.
"Chapter Master."
After considering the words for a few seconds, Soshyan decided that it would be more appropriate to speak directly.
"Your superior Occam has other important tasks. He is no longer responsible for the Maelstrom. Therefore, you are responsible for the intelligence network he deployed in the Maelstrom, and you no longer need to be responsible for him. Same thing.
, I also have two choices, give up this identity, I can find someone else, and you can return to the war group and live as a normal war group servant, or you are still a thorn, but you only need to be responsible for me,
If nothing else, you can freely choose to act."
Thorns was silent for only 2 seconds, and then said:
"Thank you Chapter Leader for your kindness, I will choose the second one."
"Don't you think about it more?"
"No."
After Thorns said this, Sorge looked at the other person and quietly stretched out his right hand to hold the other person's left hand.
Veronica noticed this and had a smile on her face.
"I've thought about it, Chapter Commander, I'd better continue to be Sorge."
Soshyan nodded.
"I respect your choice, but you must also understand that this will be a road full of danger, killing and darkness. The maelstrom is by no means a good place. Huge profits bring uncontrollable greed. At the end of the expedition
, after I leave, there will be endless enemies and troubles coming one after another. Even the empire’s bureaucracy, law enforcement agencies, tribunals, etc. will try to squeeze or even eliminate you. You must be mentally prepared for this. For this reason, I
I also prepared something specially for you."
After he finished speaking, Veronica used her psychic power, and a secret compartment suddenly appeared on the left wall. A small metal box floated out and landed on the coffee table with a dull sound.
"This is--"
"Open it and take a look."
Sorge leaned over and took a closer look. He had seen similar devices. This box should be a transport container with a high security level. It might even be equipped with a built-in protective force field, which would be enough to survive long-term exposure to vacuum without any harm, and even withstand heavy loads.
The impact of reentry into the atmosphere.
When he pressed the lock on it, the box opened in a puff of mist, and Sorge and Thorns saw the flash of the stasis field.
In the ethereal sphere that blocks the flow of time lies a beautifully shaped and luxuriously decorated scroll. The unfolded page is slightly yellowed and seems to be radiating the power of time. The edges are embellished with gold and silver decorations and purple patterns.
, it depicts a man dressed in merchant attire kneeling at the feet of the holy image of the God-Emperor, and there are lines of ancient rhyme oaths written in beautiful words.
Sorge suddenly took a breath of air.
"Rogue Trader License?"
Thorn further explained its nature in a strained voice.
"It's not an imperial business license."
"Talos found this from Huron's secret vault in the Kala system. It was probably a trophy that Huron had plundered many years ago. Perhaps he did not use this card because he did not find a suitable agent. It originated from the end of the Great Crusade.
business license, perhaps because he was busy with other things at the time, the emperor did not drop sacred blood when signing these licenses, but this does not affect its actual validity, because it has the fingerprint of the Imperial Prime Minister Malcador on it.
"
The two looked at the end of the scroll and saw a faint thumb print.
"So, Sorge, from today on, you are the descendant of the ancient legendary female trader Ildabama. You will inherit all the contracts and powers she signed with the Lord of Holy Humanity, and you will also become the third family in the Maelstrom area.
The imperial family of merchants and rogues."
Sorge took a deep breath, closed the box, then stood up and bowed deeply to Soshyan.
"Thank you Chapter Commander for your kindness, I will definitely be devastated and die -"
Soshyan waved his hand and interrupted him with a smile.
"Okay, okay, I'm not giving this to you as a favor. I just hope that I can protect you and give you a reward for your efforts in this expedition. But you must also understand that this license can only be used for you."
Resist some attacks on the surface, but the conspiracy calculations in private will only be more and more sinister. It may be a life-saving talisman or a life-saving talisman, but I think your ability should be enough to deal with it, Reza and Ange
I've already set up a line for you with Storm, and it's up to you to see how you perform."
"I will definitely live up to the expectations of the Chapter Leader."
"Sit down, sit down, don't be so impassioned, this is not a battlefield."
After sitting down, Sorge took out a miniature data tablet, and then looked at Veronica. As soon as the other party stretched out her hand, the data tablet flew into her palm, and then forwarded it to Soshyan.
"The Chapter Commander has been busy fighting, so he did not disturb you. Now I would like to report to you on the implementation of the 'New Home' plan in the past few days."
Soshyan nodded and inserted the data pad into the interface on the desktop, and then a large amount of data appeared.
"The first batch of immigrants was sent in 1964, with a total of 1.2 billion. Among them, scholars and various intellectuals, including various fields of culture, education, science and health, accounted for 11.2%, while skilled workers and senior engineers accounted for 11.2%.
23.9%, farmers, herdsmen, gardeners, small craftsmen, etc. account for 33.2%, middle and low-level clerks and managers account for 10.7%, and the remaining non-key personnel account for 21%, all of whom have undergone detailed background checks
and genetic screening.”
Soshyan glanced at the detailed data, and then asked curiously:
"How did you complete such a big project in such a short time?"
"Chapter Commander, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has an immigration agency specifically responsible for this part. After all, population transfer has always been a regular method for the empire to maintain governance. After the Maelstrom War broke out, didn't you ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to start implementing the immigration plan?"
Soshyan nodded in realization.
"This is indeed the case. Is it possible that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is still cooperating with you?"
"Thanks to you, after all, how to transfer the crowded population of the hive city has always been the most troublesome problem of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The governors are even more eager to have fewer people, especially the Zhongchao. It has a limited area but is relatively safe, so
The population actually expands much faster than that of the lower nest, and sometimes the governors have to find ways to get some residents of the middle nest to the lower nest. This is also the reason why some of their curious behaviors were born. I used my identity as a logistics outsourcer of the expeditionary force to communicate with
The director of the Immigration Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs got on the line. I helped him solve some problems, and he naturally helped me solve some problems. This is the so-called mutual help."
"With a population of more than one billion, can it be solved by just helping each other? What about these immigrants? Why are they willing to leave their homes so cooperatively? Don't they have any doubts or doubts about where they are going?"
