Warhammer: This Galen's Heart of Steel

Chapter 3 Eloquence and Expedition

Stepping into the hall of the House of Representatives, Garen felt the weight of history. On those huge walls and oval ceilings, magnificent murals depicted the glorious history of Demacia.

The entire hall exuded a solemn and sacred atmosphere, and the councilors sitting quietly in the circular seats whispered to each other, discussing this brave warrior who only existed in legends, the youngest and most powerful legion commander in Demacia's history - Garen Crownguard.

The three seats at the front of the circular council seat are occupied by the three archons, the highest power holders in Demacia.

Pete encouraged his son with a gratified look, Mesi looked indifferent and waited to see the joke, and Hekam maintained a polite smile.

Garen walked to the podium and took out the draft he had drafted, "On the Establishment of Think Tank Forces," which detailed the new management and control of psykers, and how to make them abandon their fear and resentment of Demacia and transform them into a heartfelt honor, becoming brave warriors no less than any member of the Fearless Vanguard.

Kas, a representative of the workers in the mechanical factory, was the first to raise his opinion: "We have never denied the loyalty of the Fearless Vanguard to Demacia. They are all respectable warriors who regard courage and honor as their life. But how can we believe that these psykers with evil intentions can really integrate into the group?

When they hold high positions and control the armed forces, how can we believe that tragedies will not happen again? "

The Primarchs were all excellent orators. Galen used his excellent speaking skills and sonorous tone to explain the ideological theory of "punishing without teaching" to the worker representative Kas.

At the same time, the councillors were assured that the psykers incorporated into the Think Tank would be the most stable and loyal ones, and those who harbored darkness would still spend the rest of their lives in the Forbidden Magic Prison.

Galen felt that the time had come, so he injected another dose of drastic measures and showed the congressmen his measures for military reform.

Three-three tactics.

The soldiers of the Fearless Vanguard Corps will change their original combat mode of large-scale legion charge and transform it into a three-person assault team based on the company.

Each team consists of three people, forming a triangular attack formation. Each soldier has a clear division of labor and is divided into three combat units: attack, cover, and support. The psychics will serve as support and psychic turrets.

When the combat team attacks, two soldiers are in front and the team leader is behind, forming a triangle formation. Three combat teams form a combat squad, and three combat squads form a combat group. When attacking, they deploy in a "skirmish line" formation.

Galen said passionately: "This tactical reform can not only maximize the powerful personal combat capabilities of the fearless vanguard warriors, but also avoid the rebellious behavior of corrupted and fallen psykers.

If they harbor any evil intentions, the other two warriors will ruthlessly extinguish the flames of evil."

The grand hall was noisy, and the members expressed their opinions. Many of them were in favor, belonging to Pitt's political camp, while those who opposed came from Mesici's side, and those who abstained were from Hekam's people.

Mesić said with a smile: "It's a great idea, but the risk is also very high. We need to be responsible for the safety of people's lives."

Galen understood what the woman meant. The essence of politics is a transaction, and the chips he offered had not yet benefited Mesi and his gang.

"We can use an experimental war to test the feasibility of the think tank forces."

Garen pointed to the northwest of the map behind him, to the Omekajalan Jungle bordering Demacia, where dangerous man-eating plants and Demacia's biggest concern, a powerful alien lord, lurked.

"I will annihilate these remnants of the Dark Ages to prove the perfection of the think tank's plan."

Mesić said it was no problem, but then changed the subject: "I have a suggestion. A new troop will follow us on the expedition. It will be a 100-man regiment, composed of the eldest sons of the members of the parliament."

Galen nodded to indicate that it was okay, as this was the compromise he had reached with the woman last night.

The original agreement was to send the second sons of each senator, but Galen disagreed and insisted on sending their eldest sons.

The advantage of this is that in order to ensure the safety of their eldest son, the logistical capabilities of the army controlled by the congressmen will be greatly improved.

After all, no congressman would be foolish enough to make money from it. Every bit of their corruption might become a deadly ammunition aimed at their eldest son.

What Garen has to do is to ensure the safety of these young soldiers while they earn military merits.

The parliamentarians also got what they wanted, extending their influence into the army that had been undisciplined, and they were able to consolidate their status and prestige among the people by relying on military achievements that symbolized glory.

Garen also obtained more powerful and complete logistical support and no longer had to worry about some mentally ill lunatic doing something tricky.

The meeting ended with applause.

Due to her strict upbringing, Mrs. Mesic had never played with dolls, so she decided to make do with real people.

Galen declined the old woman's invitation to dinner and went alone to a church in the east of the capital.

This is a church that believes in the gods of the Eldar, and the founder of the church is also a member of the Eldar.

About a hundred years ago, an Eldar civilian transport ship traveled through the turbulence of the Warp and crashed on the outskirts of Demacia.

Almost all the crew members on the transport ship died, with only one lucky exception.

Demacia is very hostile to this alien, not only because of his alien identity, but more importantly, the Eldar are natural psykers.

The House of Representatives unanimously passed a resolution to hang the alien, but at the moment when the Eldar member was sent to the gallows, the three consuls at the time joined forces to overturn the resolution.

The horrific and bloody rule of genetic mutants and psykers destroyed a large number of factories and technological creations, extinguished the spark of civilization, and caused the entire Demacia's social civilization to regress to the feudal agricultural and pastoral era.

The arrival of this Eldar member just happened to provide Demacia with the technological artifacts they desperately needed.

After negotiations between the two sides, Demacia allowed the Eldar to build a church in the capital and did not hinder the citizens' right to freely believe in the Eldar gods.

In contrast, he must teach Demacia's scholars scientific and technological knowledge so that Demacia can regain the spark of civilization and re-evolve into an advanced industrial civilization.

squeak-

Pushing open the door of the church, what comes into view is a huge stone statue of a woman. Made of white rock, a faint green light flows through its surface.

There was a peculiar fragrance in the air. Garen looked around and found a bunch of strange herbs burning under the goddess statue. It looked like mugwort, but the edges of the leaves had many tiny serrations.

The one he was looking for, his adoptive mother Ogatha Crownguard, was kneeling on the ground devoutly, praying to the statue of the goddess.

Garen recognized the deity symbolized by the statue, it was Aisha, the goddess of life, one of the gods of the Eldar.

This is why the church has survived to this day and was not burned down by him.

Aisha - also known as the Mother Goddess or the Warp Trash Can - is a goddess in the universal pantheon of the High Elves and Eldar, in charge of healing, fertility and harvest. She and her daughter Lilith are the rare Warp entities of truth, goodness and beauty in Warhammer 40K (only in 40K).

As we all know, in the Warhammer series, White Lotus usually doesn't have a good ending, so it's inevitable that she encounters a lot of Grim & Dark things.

The most interesting thing is the story of the two evil gods, Slaanesh and Nurgle, fighting over a wife.

During the Fall of the Eldar, Aisha survived the massacre of the Eldar Pantheon at the beginning of Slaanesh's creation, but Slaanesh then decided to turn her into his eternal love doll.

So Aisha started crying, hoping someone could help her before she was broken.

It turned out that there really was a god who heard her cries, but he was not the kind of god she wanted.

The loving Nurgle heard the Goddess's cries and groans of pain! He decided to do something, and at the same time realized that he had developed love for another entity: perhaps because no one was more desperate than her (Nurgle ruled despair), or simply because both were gods of life.

The other Chaos Gods may want to give Slaanesh some breathing time (after all, he just raped and killed most of the Eldar gods) until the energy generated by his birth stabilizes.

But Nurgle didn't care about that. He challenged Slaanesh directly for Ayesha's freedom and won.

To this day, Nurgle still adores her like a fat pervert, and she belongs to Him as agreed by the Chaos Gods.

Nurgle would occasionally tie Elsa up in his garden and force her to drink the thick porridge and nourishing soup he cooked. As the goddess of healing, Elsa could always heal herself, and Nurgle would record how long it took her to recover to judge the effectiveness of the medicine.

If the father is satisfied with the effect of the medicine, he will release it somewhere in the universe. If not, he will drink the shit soup himself and start over.

After the test, Aisha will quietly warn mortals and tell them how to deal with new biochemical crises. It is worth mentioning that Aisha is a wife and her husband is called Kunos.

Garen couldn't help but complain: "Cao thieves are really everywhere, Nurgle is actually the god of pure love!"

Galen did not disturb his mother. His target was the charlatan standing beside him - Motos.

"Goddess of Life, I wonder why Captain Galen is here?"

Motos greeted politely.

Galen smiled and walked over, grabbing Motos' shoulders and pressing him against the wall.

He wanted to confirm whether the god that Douya believed in was a heretic or the real goddess of life, Aisha.

He has a set of interrogation tricks that are very suitable for Warhammer.

"Father Motos, I have a question for you, and I hope you will answer it honestly."

The dagger flashing with cold light was thrown past Motos' eyes, leaving a graceful arc, and he swallowed nervously.

"If you have any questions, please feel free to ask."

Seeing that the other party was so tactful, Garen raised the corners of his mouth in satisfaction.

"Father, describe what the goddess of life you believe in looks like."

Motos breathed a sigh of relief. All this fuss was going on just to ask this kind of question?

"She is a beautiful goddess, just like all the beautiful elves in fairy tales, with long golden hair and flawless white skin."

Garen nodded with satisfaction. If he dared to mention purple skin, four arms, or green skin, the knife would pierce the heretic's throat without mercy.

This is an effective method. Just like when the Emperor was trapped on the golden toilet, the Empire identified whether a mortal was a heretic. Their method was not to ask "Do you believe in the Emperor?"

The Emperor that ignorant mortals believe they believe in may actually be a disguised evil god of the Warp. He blesses this mortal and makes him believe that he is the chosen one who is watched by the Emperor.

In fact, he had already fallen into the trap of the evil god.

The question should be: Describe the Emperor you met.

Mortal: purple skin, four arms, blah blah
Can: BOOM

Galen left, leaving Father Motos confused.

"Father, what's wrong with you?"

Ogatha asked in confusion after finishing her prayer.

"Nothing Ms. Ogatha, I was just asked an interesting question by a young man." The priest explained.

"What's the problem? You, who always pay attention to your appearance, are so embarrassed." Ogasha chuckled.

While tidying up his messy clothes, Motos replied: "A young man asked me what the goddess of life looks like."

Ogatha covered her mouth and laughed: "Every devout follower of the goddess knows it."

She has green skin full of vitality and is surrounded by cute elves.

Crown Guard Manor.

just now.

Under the northern part of the manor, there is a secret laboratory in the style of a mechanic, with various large hydraulic pipes, support beams and pipelines scattered throughout the room.

This is Galen's laboratory. As the power of the Primarch continues to recover, not only his size is growing wildly, but also more scientific knowledge that the Emperor has instilled into the Primarchs' minds.

With the Primarch's super intelligence, Galen easily absorbed all that knowledge.

In the display case embedded in the steel wall, there is a piece of power armor painted in rock gray.

The raw material is a special metal Forbidden Magic Stone Steel taken from special trees in the Forbidden Magic Stone Forest and mixed with metal materials. Although it is not as strong as the refined gold, the raw material of the Forbidden Guards' Golden Armor, it has a good resistance to psychic energy.

The appearance of the armor is based on Garen's skin [Iron Legion].

The curved shoulder armor adopts a double armor design, like two steel fortresses, and the gold and silver color scheme on the surface appears solemn and dignified.

The rock-gray painted arm armor and chest armor are equally thick, with raised edges outlined in dark gold, giving it a three-dimensional and majestic look.

The lower body is the same rock-gray leg armor, grid-style golden knee pads, and heavy metallic shoes with sharp edges and extremely thick soles.

An exaggerated round gold medal that is not in harmony with the whole outfit is decorated on the belt.

The perfectly round gold medal was divided into three equal parts, and the silver broadsword and the pale wings surrounding it on both sides perfectly occupied the three parts.

This is the symbol of the Mianwei family.

Each major joint of the armor has a piston-like servo mechanism, like a golden stud, which provides the clumsy heavy armor with flexibility to adapt to various terrains.

Garen walked out of the laboratory wearing his power armor and saw his father standing there waiting for him.

"How about it?"

"Very handsome!"

Peter gave a thumbs up and continued, "Baron Nash is not a simple alien lord. Be careful of the sword in his hand!"

"I will."

"How long has it been since we last practiced swordsmanship together? I still remember when you were a kid, you were only this big."

Pete gestured with his hands.

"Before you leave, practice with me one more time. It may not be very effective, but."

Seeing his father's loneliness and worry, Galen couldn't help but comfort him: "I will win, okay?"

Pete touched Garen's hair, a smile appeared on his lips, and he handed him a wooden sword. It was the first sword Garen owned, and it was carved by Pete himself.

"Forget it, Dad. You can't beat me."

Galen smiled and said, "When I return victorious, I will play with you to my heart's content."

"gone!"
