More importantly, I need to find a way to win in defensive operations!

I want my father to see that the walls I have built are more solid than those of Dorne!

We, the Iron Warriors, are the legion that should stay in Terra the most!

If we really have to go out to fight again, then we need to consider what pretext to use to send our Iron Warriors back to Terra to be killed.

retire?

Right, although nobody is talking about what Astartes should do after the Great Crusade ends, there are even some strange comments and doubts about this issue.

So, I'll be the first to try it!

Starting with their own Iron Warriors, they will find a pretext to send their sons, who are now deeply doubting themselves after the humiliating defeat of the last battle, back to Terra!

In this way, I can be considered to have people in Terra's walls and in the palace!

When competing for a higher position and striving for an advantage in the future, there will be pieces that can be used.

That's it, let's do it this way. When we get back, we'll follow Olympia's ostracism method and pick one out of ten to send the Iron Warrior back to Terra to help Dorne repair the city walls.

Then they gradually replaced the beams with pillars!

He had observed carefully that the Imperial Guards were somewhat less vigilant towards the Imperial Fist, who was engaged in civil engineering work.

Leave some experienced veterans who are good at talking to build goodwill; they will play a crucial role later.

It might even provide support for his long-term deployment to Terra!

This would give me more time to explore my brother's past in Terra, and even try to conquer the time machine!

Also, find out what your father is doing, and whether there is any connection between the heaven that Dorn mentioned and what your father is doing.

Ugh, my head hurts so much. Just thinking about these things that have nothing to do with technology gives him a headache.

Unfortunately, before Terra, I didn't see Loga, but I did see Magnus, who had shaved half of his head and combed the other half up as if to cover something.

He said that what his father was going to do was related to the subspace.

When Peturabo tried to lift the other half of Magnus's hair to see what was hidden inside, he was blasted away by a massive psychic shock.

You little rascal, your brother was just curious.

In 600 BC, while Dorne was being fooled by the socially awkward Pepe, Druid was in the city.

This is the last medium-sized city-state before reaching Athens, continuing north from the Aegean port.

It's also a city that Aaron has some memories of from his childhood.

When he was five years old, he lived in Dezhou for three months, during which time he learned not to burn the food.

Unfortunately, when they returned to Deceu, their original residence had already been demolished. Deceu was discussing the merger with Athens, and many ancient buildings were being destroyed.

The plan is to re-plan the city's development after the merger.

Macedonia is now eyeing us covetously from the north, but at least we share the same cultural origins. Even if we are conquered by Macedonia, it will just mean we've changed our fathers.

Life had to go on as usual, and Athens was even able to maintain a relatively high status. Therefore, after the merger of Athens and Deutschland, they were able to take the opportunity to enjoy the benefits.

As for Persia to the east, that's a more dangerous situation. They fought a war with Egypt just five years ago, and recently they've been making no attempt to hide their expansionist ambitions.

After all, if you go any further east from their habitat, you'll find deserts and Gobi.

They could only expand westward, striving to occupy the Mediterranean port at the junction of three continents.

Of course, this is the original course of history, and Adachi is too lazy to worry about it. As long as no evil spirits emerge from behind, that's fine.

Who knows how many more battles Persia will have to fight Athens in the future?

"Same as before, you go find a house, I'll go find a market, and I'll try fishing in the river basin near Daldu. Damn it, is there really nowhere to fish besides Lavist?"

Anda said angrily, waiting for her son to agree to let her go out and play.

Aaron had grown accustomed to his father's irresponsibility, and frankly, entrusting the family affairs to his father was clearly more dangerous.

I'll do it myself.

“Marum, take good care of this old man and don’t let him show his face unnecessarily. The closer we get to more civilized areas, the more people here have to indulge in pleasure.”

Aaron gave Marum instructions, and the latter even tried to suppress his sweat.

Oh no, does Aaron know about the time in Yunu when the master played the queen in "Oedipus Rex"?

That chaos was a classic example of chaotic pollution (scratch that).

"clear."

Marum was determined to protect his master's clothes from ever leaving his body.

After giving his instructions, Aaron took the fifth son away to find a place to rent a house.

Unfortunately, due to urban development and subsequent reconstruction, there are not many vacant houses left in areas where ordinary people live.

Sigh, it would have been better to let Marum take that submarine; they could have used it as a house right there.

Aaron had no choice but to look further into the affluent areas, where there was a high probability of finding rental properties, but the prices would be much higher.

He didn't even need his father to remind him; he knew that the family's money needed to be spent carefully.

Aaron led the fifth brother forward, and after entering the wealthy area, they saw a large group of people gathered together.

There's quite a commotion over there, but it's probably not a theatrical performance.

It's not a holiday recently, but within Athens' cultural influence, a theatrical performance requires at least one stage.

So, it was a political speech?

Aaron did recall that before the Athenian archon stepped down, candidates had to compete with each other for the position.

Some even launch a purge as soon as they come to power, using the method of ostracizing the previous leader to exile him to remote areas where he would have to eat dirt.

This ensures that once in office, one's power base will find no one else to rely on in the short term, forcing them to temporarily side with one, thus guaranteeing the strict enforcement of orders in the early stages of one's term, and thus qualifying one to implement one's policies over a longer term.

When Aaron led the donkey to the back of the crowd and listened, he indeed heard that ostracism was being carried out—a premonition.

The day after tomorrow, a secretary of the Athenian archon will be ostracized in Detu because of accounting problems.

Although the then-governor still had a year left in his term, his opponents and candidates had already begun some underhanded tactics, starting by getting rid of the governor's secretary.

His crimes were being loudly proclaimed by the officials in front of him, including embezzling offerings for the temple and accepting bribes.

It's unclear how serious it is, and the exact amount wasn't mentioned.

It was as if this person was wearing clothes made from cloth offered to God, as if he had insulted all of God's believers. The people listening below were outraged and wished that instead of being banished by ostracism, they would be stoned to death!

Dedu clearly attached great importance to this matter, considering it a symbol of their joining Athens.

But Aaron just felt that blasphemy was really that serious?

Oh no, I forgot to tell Marum to make sure his father was careful with his words.

This old man has cursed many gods, and although they are theoretically his friends, believers may not be able to tolerate such treatment.

Aaron felt that he should find a place to stay as soon as possible and then bring his father back. He didn't want to return today to find only Marum there.

The elderly father has been sent to the local court for speaking recklessly and is facing execution for blasphemy.

Sigh, Egypt is still better; at least you can pay to atone for your sins.

In Athens, however, the blasphemers really need to be killed.

Of course, you can atone for your sins and admit your mistakes, believing that your previous behavior was due to youthful ignorance. However, many people who deliberately blaspheme are often unwilling to admit that they are wrong.

Chapter 135 Aaron: Dad, I rented a haunted house (3K)

The wealthy people of Dedu clearly didn't care that a bald young man leading a donkey was crowding around with a curious, unsophisticated look on his face.

They were about to become noble Athenians, and from then on, people from other parts of Greece would be seen as country bumpkins.

Anyone who sees them has to call them "Master Ya" (雅爷) awesome.

However, Aaron only wanted to find a rental house. He really wanted to settle things at home as soon as possible and didn't care about the blasphemy of the governor's secretary.

These boring political games are all a mess, and I'm too lazy to figure out the whole picture. I'll just focus on living my own family's life.

After searching for a long time, Aaron finally found a small estate for rent at a very cheap price, enough to keep his father from going crazy.

The reason is that someone died in this manor. It happened when the wealthy family's nephew, drunk, devoured his lover alive.

In a physical sense.

When those human body ornaments were displayed in different categories, almost everyone who saw them vomited. It was as if they were slaughtering their own kind like livestock.

Even when those wizards occasionally used prisoners of war for human sacrifices, which hadn't happened in a long time, they would only symbolically poison them, cut out their hearts, and hold them up for everyone to see.

You want people to watch beheadings? That's great, it'll be a spectacle.

If you want everyone to see detailed human anatomy guidelines, then forget it.

The person explaining the reason to Aaron now is the family's steward. The master of the house had long since moved to another courtyard to avoid being reminded of the family by seeing the objects.

After all, the marks left by those fragmented human body parts hanging on the wall can never be completely washed away.

In other words, the butler was able to vividly describe to the young Aaron the scene of human organs being removed and displayed like goods on a shelf.

It's unclear whether he witnessed it firsthand or heard about it from others afterward.

Unfortunately, the butler didn't see any fear in Aaron. In fact, the young man was quite curious and pressed him for details about human organs.

It's like telling a scary story to a little kid, and when you get to the most frightening part, the kid asks whether the monster looks like a cat or a dog.

"Sir, you're saying that a person's heart is still beating after it's been ripped out?"

"And that poor guy's eyeballs bounce around on the ground like marbles. There's not an ounce of flesh on his skeleton, yet his bones can still reach out by themselves?"

These strange questions, coupled with Aaron's innocent and curious eyes, made him feel embarrassed and annoyed. How could he possibly remember so clearly? This child was simply deliberately causing trouble!

The butler was too lazy to take Aaron to the wall where human organs had been displayed for a closer look. Talking with the boy, he didn't feel any of the respect that comes from deliberately telling exaggerated stories.

"Alright, here's the rental agreement, in duplicate. Put your fingerprint on it, keep one copy at home, and show it to anyone who wants to check. Our Mr. Demos still has some standing. But I doubt anyone will come here to check anything."

The butler quickly had Aaron sign the document and put his fingerprint on it before slipping away.

"By the way, I suggest you go to the market and buy a lamb to sacrifice to Zeus or Hades, so you won't have nightmares at night. There were people who rented this manor before because it was cheap, but they were all scared away in the end."

He was quite conscientious in fulfilling the responsibility of renting out the house that the master had entrusted to him, and he was also kind enough to remind the young man.
