Chapter 495, Looking for Death?

The judges of the Silver Tribunal were very annoyed by the Alliance's disrespectful behavior.

In their work experience, they rarely encountered such a situation.

They are the Tribunal! They have the final say and hold great power! They don't take any local officials seriously. If they say you are traitors, you are traitors!

Wherever they go, aren't they treated with caution? The local forces of any empire are like looking at the god of death, kneeling on the ground in fear, waiting for their judgment anxiously. In this process, it is very common to flatter and grovel.

Clean up the spies sent by the Tribunal?

Who dares!

Although they were sent secretly, those local forces can certainly realize that the spies are from the Tribunal. It's too late to coax and confess. At most, they can try their best to hide the evidence. Only when they have no choice, they dare to do something dirty.

But often at this time, the judges are furious and sentence the people in power to death.

But the Alliance is not like that at all.

They still have the proper courtesy, but they have conflicts in many areas. For example, when it comes to spies, the Alliance doesn't care whether you have investigated any intelligence or not. As long as you send out spies without notifying them openly, they will treat them as illegal spies.

Angry?

Then go ahead and be angry.

But the silver judges dared not do anything.

Do the silver judges dare to make a judgment directly without decisive evidence because of this?

Obviously not.

Even though they have received many urgings from the Fury Corps in the past year.

But they still don't dare.

It's easy to say that the Alliance is a traitor, and it's just a matter of moving your lips. However, looking at the Alliance intelligence officers who follow them at any time and monitor their actions, as well as the "Glory Guards" that these intelligence officers can call at any time, the silver judges have no intention of moving.

After the judgment, do you Fury dare to start a war directly? Obviously not. In the past, the Inquisition itself or the forces it represented or allied with had absolute crushing power over local forces, and the ultimate goal of sentencing treason was to find an excuse to go to war.

But this is not the case at all!

Even if the Wrath Flame asked the Silver Inquisition to make a judgment, they would not go to war for this reason, at least not before their strength was strong enough. Their judgment was more of a means for the Wrath Flame War Group to suppress the Alliance.

In fact, they made a judgment, and the Flash Inquisition following behind them might overturn their judgment; their judgment could not be enforced, and even if the Wrath Flame went up, it might not be able to defeat the Alliance.

Even if they could do it, that would be a matter for the future. At the moment, these Silver Inquisitors in the heart of the Alliance must all be finished!

The Alliance intelligence officers following them might not be able to kill them, but those so-called "Glory Guards" made the Silver Inquisitors tremble a little. These elite soldiers of the Alliance are not as majestic as Space Marines, but they are covered in power armor and should not be underestimated. The key is the mental outlook they show, which is even more shocking.

The Silver Inquisitors could not help but compare themselves secretly. Their Inquisition Black Ship also brought an elite Stormtrooper, which was composed of the most elite veterans from the Astra Militarum. They were equipped with exoskeleton armor and hell laser guns. Each tactical team could also choose more powerful weapons such as explosive bombs, plasma, and hot melt according to different mission objectives.

Stormtroopers are said to be from the Astra Militarum sequence, but in fact, it is more common for them to work for the Inquisition. They are one of the most reliable elite armed forces under the Inquisition.

However, compared with these Honor Guards of the Alliance, they may be similar in training level and mental will, but they are slightly behind in equipment.

The Silver Inquisitors often sighed because of this: Is the Alliance so rich?

Even if their Stormtroopers can compete with these Honor Guards, and they can call Phoenix Space Marines at any time, the Fury Legion is far away.

Even if they just want to run, the Inquisition's black ships have excellent performance, but their black ships are always accompanied by several times the number of Alliance warships.

This so-called "accompanying" but actually monitoring method makes them dare not act rashly, and they can't even think about finding out any results.

They can't get any solid intelligence from the dark side or the light side. They don't dare to use the Alliance's bad attitude to judge the Alliance in the name of "blocking the investigation". These reasons make the Silver Inquisitors feel very frustrated.

However, they still wander around the hinterland of the Alliance.

They also understand their role: if they can't kill you, they will disgust you to death.

As long as they exist, the Alliance will have to devote a considerable amount of attention to them.

To be honest, they did play their role. Otherwise, so many intelligence officers, so many Honor Guards, and a considerable number of Alliance warships could have done other things instead of just following these Inquisitors to prevent them from causing any unforeseen problems.

However, they are leaving now.

They left without coming to any conclusion.

To be honest, this is quite unusual for Inquisitors. With great fanfare, a whole black ship was sent out, hundreds of Inquisitors at all levels, tens of thousands of elite Stormtroopers, plus countless spies, to the location of a force to conduct an investigation, but they left without any results.

Even if they came to the conclusion that the Alliance did not commit treason?

That would not work.

Wouldn't that be equivalent to endorsing the Alliance?

But coming to the conclusion of treason?

That would be even worse.

Not only would they do this, but the entire team currently in the heart of the Alliance would be finished, and they would not be able to execute their judgment. Moreover, they did not even dare to make a judgment after leaving the Alliance's territory, because the changes in Holy Terra frightened the Silver Tribunal.

In the past, they had covered up the Iron Armored Warband's actions many times, but that was because Holy Terra had never determined the Iron Armored Warband's actions. At this point, are they really going to be completely tied to the Iron Armored Warband?

The Silver Tribunal has not made a final decision, and there are still fierce debates among them, and even some purges have occurred among each other. The Iron Armored faction is reluctant to have the power to do whatever it wants with the support of a powerful warband in the eastern border of the empire, and the huge benefits delivered by the Iron Armored Warband; the Imperial faction believes that going down the dark road with the Iron Armored Warband is a dead end.

There are still many differences within these two major factions.

It's a mess.

But in short, the investigation of the Alliance cannot be carried out.

The Imperials opposed it, and the Iron Armor faction also received information from the Iron Armor Legion that the Dragon Eagle Star Region, located two star regions south of the Princess Star Region, was not the core location of the Iron Armor Legion's next move.

The Silver Tribunal withdrew in disgrace.

At the same time, the Fury Flame Legion also withdrew.

But before leaving, the Fury Flame Legion made a request to the Alliance.

A few years ago, the Fury Flame Company, which was sent by Kazimierz Erso to convey the mission to the Alliance, had been detained by the Alliance for a long time. The Alliance must return these people.

Whether to return or not, that is of course the Alliance's decision. If the Alliance just detained them and did not return them, what else can the Fury Flame Legion do?

The war that cannot be fought now cannot be fought because of these one hundred Fury Flame prisoners.

However, the Alliance is still considering this matter carefully.

Whether to return the prisoners or not, the Fury Flame Legion can only withdraw. But the way of withdrawal may be different.

Will they evacuate obediently, return their current occupied areas to the Dragon Eagle Star Region Government, and then wait for Gu Hang, the Dragon Eagle Head who has been clearly appointed, to take over, or will they plunder before leaving?

They will definitely plunder, there is no doubt about it. I am afraid that they will take the warships they currently control, transport a large amount of supplies, and evacuate with them.

But the difference lies in whether their plunder is relatively mild or destructive.

If it is the latter, it will be very troublesome. They will leave a huge mess for the Alliance.

Of course, this will attract huge resistance and make the reputation of the Fury Flame Corps very bad. However, since they are all going to withdraw and go against the Empire, they obviously don’t care about these.

Even if it is impossible for them to ravage all the controlled areas, it will be very uncomfortable even if they only ravage Yunluo Star. Before the war, Yunluo Star was a developed world with a production value no less than Feiyi Star. Level 4 development, 12 billion people, just looking at this, the output value is nearly 50 billion. Many places controlled by the Alliance, the entire star zone may only add up to half of this number.

What's more, after smashing the pot, they not only took away the wealth, but the Alliance will then rule these areas, and have to spend money to appease and rebuild.

In fact, when the Alliance government learned about the political changes on Holy Terra and predicted that the Fury Warband was likely to retreat, it made a plan in this regard.

As long as the Fury Warband intends to leave, then they will attack on all fronts, seize time and opportunities, force the Fury Warband not to do too much, and drive them away.

Even if it triggers a certain degree of war between the two sides, it is worth it.

And the people who came to negotiate with the Fury Warband had a vague meaning: you return the captives to me, and I will do less evil.

In fact, the Alliance is willing to do this.

No matter how valuable a hundred stripped Fury Warbands are, in the eyes of the Alliance, they are not as valuable as a more intact world.

Even if Fury does not completely abide by the agreement, he will still rob what needs to be robbed and destroy what needs to be destroyed, but the more he can leave, the better.

However, when the Phoenix Regiment agreed to the other party's conditions for exchanging prisoners in principle, they had a new idea.

And this idea still needs Gu Hang's approval.

Gu Hang, who was still on his way back, heard the report and application and returned a signal:

Agreed.

...

Snow Eagle Star Region, Upper Plateau Star.

This world, which was once a key focus battle between humans and the Iron-toothed Greenskins, has been destroyed in the war. Various orbital bombings and brutal battles on the ground have almost destroyed this world.

Most of the original urban clusters on the ground have become ruins. There may still be civilians who survived the war, but the number will not be too large.

It will probably take a long time for it to restore its past appearance - if there is no external interference.

And today, this planet has once again become the focus of the entire star region.

Because the handover ceremony between the Fury Flame Regiment and the Alliance on the Dragon Eagle Star Region will be held here.

The Fury Corps will evacuate the Dragon Eagle Star Region from today, and the Alliance will be able to take over smoothly.

Originally, the Alliance also hoped to sign a detailed handover list with the Fury Corps, what you can take away, what you cannot take away, and what you must be obliged to keep intact... However, the Fury Corps refused.

So far, the two sides have not signed any clear paper documents. All the agreements reached are verbal, and even rely on tacit understanding.

This is very unreliable.

However, there is one thing that is clear and certain: the Alliance will deliver 100 previously captured Fury warriors today on the Upper Plateau.

As the representative of the Alliance, it is the Phoenix Corps, who are fully responsible for this exchange ceremony.

The method of exchange is a bloody death battle.

The rules are very simple: Phoenix sends out 100 warriors, challenged by the Fury Corps, and the victory and defeat are determined on the ring.

If Fury wins a game, it will return a prisoner to Fury.

If you have the ability to kill all 100 Phoenixes, all the 100 captives will be released.

The arena has been built - it is a large flat ground. There are no restrictions on any means or rules. All equipment that a single soldier can bring in can be used, but no interference is allowed outside the arena.

Fairness and justice, it all depends on ability. After a game, both sides can choose to change players or not. Anyway, the duel ends when the Phoenix loses 100 games cumulatively. As for how many games Nuyan has to fight to win the 100 games, it depends on Nuyan's own ability.

If Nuyan can not lose a game and penetrate 100 Phoenixes, it is equivalent to killing 100 Phoenixes and exchanging his captives for nothing; if he can't penetrate these 100 people, he can do it himself.

This is undoubtedly a major provocation, not only a duel between warriors, but also a duel between warbands.

There is no friendship at all. In the case that the war cannot be fought, two warbands full of grudges will have a life-and-death blood battle.

On the outer orbit of Shangyuan Star, ships from both sides gathered. The leader of the alliance was naturally the "Fire Nova", while on the other side, the flagship of the Fury Corps, the battle barge "Fire Soul", was also eyeing it.

The ships of both sides were quite far from the planetary orbit. The distrust between them was almost about to burst out. No one was willing to let the other's ship stop in orbit, lest the people who went down to the ground suddenly be hit by an orbital cannon.

There was also a cruiser-class warship of the Mechanicus, which belonged to the Mingyang Sect. They were the first to come as "spectators", and they were also witnesses to some extent.

The scene that was cleared early was a vast open space of city ruins after the war. A large number of people from both sides had already landed and were clearly separated on both sides.

Among the two sides, the most conspicuous were two groups of steel bodies of different colors.

One side had red armor with white edges, and the other side was mainly orange, with black shoulder armor and below the knees.

Both sides had 800 soldiers. Not all the warriors were sent down, and each side had some in reserve.

However, as the most important figures of both chapters, the chapter leaders of the two chapters were present.

Kazimierz Erso stared ahead, and he could see Martins wearing Terminator power armor on the opposite side.

When he just received the duel invitation from Martins himself, he was furious.

A newly revived chapter dared to challenge them?

It was simply overestimating their own abilities!

At the same time, he also thought that this was a good opportunity to resolve the anger that was pent up in the entire chapter.

Just as he was unwilling to hear Humphrey Paul ask him to retreat, the warriors under his command also had similar emotions.

How could a proud Space Marine tolerate surrendering without firing a shot?

Although retreating was not considered surrender, but a strategic shift, the generally impulsive warriors in the Fury Chapter still thought it was very aggrieved.

They didn't want to do this, but they had to do it under orders.

Now, the Phoenix's proposal is just what they want!

I didn't want to retreat in the first place, but you guys came to me and asked for death!

In addition to the fact that the head of the orc chieftain Titus was robbed before, and the century-old feud... the entire warband can't refuse the challenge of the Phoenix.

Otherwise, the entire warband will be humiliated!

Even if Kazimierz Erso is the warband leader, he can't go against the ideas of countless people and refuse this duel related to the honor of the warband. That will destroy his prestige, and countless fighting brothers will question whether he is still qualified to lead the entire warband.

What's more, he himself has no intention of refusing at all!

Even if he heard that after the Phoenix Warband was revived, the strength of the Phoenix recruits was not weak and could not be regarded as recruits, but so what? Are all the Fury Flames recruits? All members have much more years of service and combat experience than the Phoenixes, and if they are afraid to fight with them, that would be a ghost!

Even if these Phoenixes are really powerful, they will have to pay a price of 100 or even 200 to kill all 100 of them, so they have to fight!

Especially since the opponent chose their home ground. The entire Snow Eagle Star Region was previously considered the control area of ​​the Fury Corps. Under such conditions, Fury will not retreat.
