Listening to Old Walker's introduction, Soshyan immediately showed surprise, because he realized that this was probably the top military commander of the Great Sol'an Alliance, so he nodded to the other party and said politely:
"He is such a brave man, Leader of Ussar, I am glad to meet him."
Usar nodded, a smile suddenly bloomed on his face, and he said in skilled Gogot language:
"I've heard the name of Commander-in-Chief Soshyan Alexei for a long time. I wanted to stand up and shake hands with you, but my legs are numb after sitting on a high chair for too long. Next time we'll chat standing up. I'll put on my
of mechanical stilts.”
Soshyan was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed. The other person's sense of humor was beyond his expectation. He thought he would be an unsmiling warrior.
Then, the other party changed the subject.
"Captain Soshiyang, I am here to bother you this time. On the one hand, I want to thank you on behalf of the alliance for keeping your promise. We have also cooperated with different forces in the empire many times, but I have to say that it is the norm for many people in the empire to turn their backs and refuse to admit their mistakes.
, the moral level and contract spirit of the human empire sometimes really make us very upset. The most common excuse is that the empire's laws prohibit cooperation with aliens - and often after taking the goods."
"In any case, you can be considered as assisting the expedition. The so-called aliens' words are not finalized by the imperial law and the Inquisition. I am just doing business."
Ursal nodded.
"The leader of the Soshiyan Chapter is indeed a reasonable person as the leader Walker said, so this is the second purpose of our visit. In the future, we may be able to cooperate more."
Soshiyang smiled, spread his hands and said:
"As soon as the expedition is over, I will become a chapter leader again. I may not have so many valuable things to trade with you. After all, to be honest, your weapons and equipment are indeed of high quality, but they are not cheap. Chapter
I don’t have any production projects myself, and I’m afraid you won’t look down on the occasional war seizures.”
"The cooperation with your battle group is only a small part. Mainly with the Eternal Royal Court."
For a moment, Veronica raised her eyebrows, while Soshiyang's face was as dark as water. After a moment, he said slowly:
"I don't know what the Eternal Royal Court is that the leader of Ursal is referring to."
Usar looked at Soshyan, then put his hands on the table and leaned forward slightly.
"No offense, it's just that the Great Thorian Alliance has had a long-term deal with Yemlok, the craft world of Ada, and the special liquid crystal they produce has always been a very important imported product for the alliance. However, recently our partner suddenly visited the Great Thorian Alliance.
The whirlpool inevitably made us doubtful. After sending an envoy, we learned that the other party had joined an emerging Eternal Royal Court. Of course, we did not intend to spy on the secrets of our partners with any malicious intent, but because of the demise of the ancient Ada Empire.
The center of the world is the Eternal Royal Court, so I can’t help but have some doubts and curiosity, so I gradually obtained some information through various channels, for example, the head of the Eternal Royal Court is a beautiful queen.”
As they spoke, the three Hearthborn looked at Veronica, who just pushed up her glasses and said nothing.
".And the queen's husband is an incredibly tall war king, who is crowned with the ancient title of Phoenix King."
The three of them turned their attention to Soshyan again. There was no expression on the other person's face, he just tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
"We don't know exactly why Jermlok came to the Maelstrom in the Craft World. We just speculate that he may have followed the orders of the Royal Court. Later, an attack on the Astartes Chapter in the Maelstrom attracted me.
Attention, malicious warriors, that is a bunch of damn gangsters and villains, they have attacked Hearthborn merchant ships and transport ships many times, and I heard that they seem to have conflicts with you? But Ada only attacked them, right?
There was no intrusion from other Imperial battle groups, and not long after, the Hoylander family was also bloodbathed by Ada, and their cooperation with the Red Corsairs was completely exposed to the public, allowing the expeditionary force to eliminate it without a single soldier.
This huge hidden danger. It seems that Ada is intentionally assisting the expeditionary force?"
After a moment, a chuckle came from Soshiyang's throat.
"The behavior of the Eldar has always been unpredictable, but it is not surprising that they often accomplish their goals in a 'helping human' way."
Ursal nodded.
"Yes, you know them very well. In fact, I am not a person who talks in a roundabout way, but considering that this matter is indeed very special, I feel that speaking too straightforwardly may affect your sense of us.
?Sect Master Walker once said that he saw in you the omen of a phoenix rising from the flames. I believe in the vision of the old sect master."
Soshyan glanced at Sect Leader Walker, who was still smoking. To be honest, he did have a lack of understanding of the Hearthborn psykers, but what he said were all speculations, and in the final analysis, there was no substantial evidence.
"Leader Ursal, are you suspecting that I am secretly communicating with the spirit race? Human beings will never communicate with aliens."
Usar interrupted him with a smile.
"Captain Soshyan, there is no need to say so harshly. As early as the very ancient past, humans and Ada were not incompatible. The two sides were not originally in a life-or-death relationship when they met. Furthermore, the Empire can
Does it represent all of humanity?”
Soshiyang narrowed his eyes and said coldly:
"The empire is humanity, and humanity is the empire. Any attempt to divide humanity will be met with a head-on attack. If you hold a denial attitude, then there will be nothing to talk about."
"The chapter leader misunderstood. It's just an insignificant topic for me. In addition, the alliance also has some partners in Comoros. Although those Ada are really disgusting, sometimes in business, some people will inevitably dig into the cesspit.
Behavior, after all, profit is the basis for maintaining the existence of the alliance."
The topic came to Comoros, and Soshyan knew that there was no point in hiding it any longer. The other party's language was very pointed, and coupled with his relationship with the craft world Yemlok, he should be able to basically determine his identity.
After thinking for a moment, Soshyan only said one sentence.
"Let's talk in the royal court later."
Kwem Laid nodded and said:
"The alliance hopes to organize a business delegation to go to the Eternal King's Court to formally pay homage to Her Majesty the Eternal Queen. The number of people is about 30-50, and they are all representatives of important companies and clans in the alliance."
Soshyan looked at Veronica and said after the other party nodded:
"Yes, someone will contact you at the specific time."
After the two sides talked for a few more words, the representatives of the Great Sorian Alliance left, and Soshyan looked at Veronica.
"What was Ada's past relationship with these short men?"
"I have seen some records in ancient archives before. It seems that before the Great Fall, forces suspected to have split from the human kingdom appeared in the barren land in the center of the Galaxy. But whether the ancient empire had any contact with it is unclear.
There is no written record. After the Great Fall, the Arkworlds fled to the edge of the Galaxy one after another, and there was no contact during this period. In other words, there were only some contact records with some Arkworlds returning to the inner regions of the Galaxy in the past few thousand years. However, with these bearded people,
The compatriots who have come into contact with the dwarves all agree that they are stubborn and stubborn, as well as vulgar and savage."
"Then what do you think of their suggestions? To be honest, I don't really like their highly commercial style."
Veronica thought for a while, then smiled:
"I think it's okay. Besides, they occupy the center of the galaxy, which makes it easier to collect information from all directions of the galaxy."
"Well, yes, but we must also be careful that they use this as a leverage to try to blackmail us in the future. My idea is to let Doral collect the core information of these Hearthborn, at least to know the specific location of their home, and the routes in and out of the galaxy.
In a channel, only when both parties have each other's secrets can a dynamic balance be achieved, what do you think?"
"Yes, you can do that. Why are you sighing again?"
Soshyan leaned back and whispered:
"As the influence of the Royal Court increases day by day, I don't know how long I can keep this identity hidden. Today I am a short-term person, and tomorrow I may be someone else or a force. I also know that there is no airtight wall in the world, but I may not be ready yet.
.”
Veronica bent down and hugged his neck from the side, leaned into his ear and whispered comforting:
