Mars, three years later.
Hades sat with his back to the workbench, chatting idly with Jin.
Behind him, the small plasma device on the power backpack was cutting the adamantium along a predetermined trajectory, sending sparks flying.
After training, Hades can now use his left brain to control the backpack and automatically complete some simple cutting or welding work.
So now he can sneak a fish.
The Moon Wolf Sunderland completed his studies the year before last and returned to the legion in glory, leaving Hades and the others to watch helplessly as the Moon Wolf left with a loud laugh.
The hard times have just begun.jpg
The good news is that after communicating with the Jordanian sage, Hades learned that his progress was fast and he might be able to go back early.
As for Terra, there has been no news since Hades replied that it was up to him and asked Makado to send more Untouchables.
The carrot tied to the mule's head has not been put in place yet, so Hades is not in a hurry and just concentrates on struggling in the ocean of learning on Mars.
By the way, Perez of War Dog will be returning to the legion soon, and Hades is thinking of getting some food by then.
Or what could he say to the war dog Perez.
The last time Moon Wolf Sunderland left, it was several of White Scar's battle brothers who took the wolf to hunt game.
Although Hades didn't know what kind of meat this was, maybe it was a creature that a great sage had kindly released into the wilderness
But he has gradually become slick and has understood all of this -
"Jin, please help me get some more food. I will praise you more in front of the Jordanian sage then."
An angry symbol appeared on the golden face that was assembling a small engine.
"Hades, the Death Guard from Barbarus, you have praised me three thousand and seven times in front of the sages in a similar way so far, but I am still here."
The mechanical servant's limbs were so fast that the corresponding part of his robe was almost worn out by the limbs.
"I'm still here to help you!"
Hades scratched his face. Jin was reserved and easy to talk to at the beginning. When did he become like this
"Well, I don't have much to offer you, except to say a few good words to your superiors."
Jin's electronic eyes flashed, and then the screen was filled with angry symbols.
"Sir, look at the technical servant who used to follow the Iron Hands. Now he is the quartermaster who is responsible for connecting with the Iron Hands."
The anthropomorphic electronic sound is a bit too realistic.
"And my Lord, you don't know how difficult it is for us technical servants to grab a place to serve in the reorganized legion!"
Hades thought about it and spoke hesitantly.
"Work hard, and you can become a sage who can connect with the Death Guard."
It's over. He also started to make big promises for others.
Hades, oh Hades, how did you become this kind of person
However, Jin gritted his teeth and said,
"I should hope so, my Lord."
Hades blinked.
"So, that thing about finding something to eat—"
Jin threw a bunch of angry nonsense at Hades, closed his eyes on the display screen, and chose to mute the microphone.
Well, it seems there is no hope. The flour from Terra that Jin brought back last time was quite good.
[Daily behavior analysis data is complete. ]
Today happened to be the day when the Ultramarines came to Mars to replenish their weapons and equipment on a large scale, and a new batch of technical sergeants who came to learn from the Ultramarines also came here.
It was also an opportunity to skip class openly, so Hades decisively ran out with the Wolf Manning to see the Extreme Warriors.
He also asked Diquan, Tieshou and others if they wanted to go and watch the fun, but to no avail, as they were rejected.
Unfortunately, the wild wolf Manning deliberately kept his distance from Hades. Hades knew why and had to silently accept the other party's kindness.
There are more than a dozen technical sergeants, including the thirteen technical sergeants who have not left yet. As the iteration of technical sergeants in each legion is extremely slow, with an average of only four or five people in each legion on Mars, the Extreme Marines directly crush them in terms of numbers.
This was the first time that Hades intuitively felt the characteristic of the Extreme Marines' "large numbers".
Ultramarines Servius walked past Hades and gave him a friendly smile.
"Hades, are you here to greet our new Techmarine?"
Hades answered fluently,
"Of course, seeing you guys welcoming the technical sergeants of our legion, I'm also thinking about when the Death Guard will send new recruits over, so I can be busy for once."
"Please help us check on the new batch of comrades first."
Servius laughed and went to greet his new companions.
Hades sat on the observation deck, watching the blue giant in the distance slowly swallowing and spitting out cargo. The huge white inverted "U" was clearly visible.
Just as he was staring blankly at the blue dots in the distance—
Footsteps were heard, and a sage slowly approached.
Unlike the hunched back of the Jordanian sage often seen in Hades, the one who came was a tall woman who retained a feminine figure, and her face was half metal and half original.
She came over and sat directly opposite Hades.
Hades sighed in his heart, wondering what he was going to do this time.
Anyway, judging from the other party's attitude, it didn't seem like they were here to discuss the Death Guard with him. Apart from the inexplicable malice on Mars directed at Hades himself, Hades couldn't think of anything else.
"careful."
Thanks for the reminder, but could you please stop being a riddle man
"Thanks for the reminder."
"But could you please give me a little more detail?"
The sage on the other side was surprised. She blinked, and then, as if she had mustered a lot of courage, she spoke again.
"I watch over the affairs of Mars in the name of Malcador the Sceptre."
"Before you arrived on Mars, a certain faction of aliens on Mars made some significant moves."
"The specific operation is to approach the technical sergeant's training base and intercept some of the information flow from the Jordanian sage."
"Based on the timing and content of their actions, in my personal calculations, there is an 87.6% probability that they are paying attention to you."
Hades sighed, then spoke again.
"Then why did you come to remind me now?"
The other side was stuck, and it was half of a human face. The panic was visible to the naked eye, as if something had been discovered.
".Recently I received a mission from the Sigillite Malcador. He will arrive on Mars in the future and asked me to make relevant arrangements."
"What does that have to do with me?"
Hades continued to persuade him, although he had already guessed that it was most likely Makado who had mentioned Hades, and then the sage hurried over to remind him.
Otherwise, she would most likely just stand by and watch.
If you really want to remind Hades, you should have done it earlier, there is no need to wait until Hades has been acting for three years.
It's just a mindless reminder.
Hades' evaluation is not as good as the grumpy old car, although the old car does not understand the twists and turns on Mars.
After Hades asked what was going on with me, the other party was completely stuck.
After a long while, she slowly said,
"Be careful, not all on Mars are loyal to the Emperor."
"Besides, they are targeting you personally."
"From what I gather, your physique attracted them."
Then the sage immediately stood up, turned around and left without looking back.
Hades blinked. Based on his experience of dealing with these mechanical sages in recent years, it was very likely that the sage had just changed the language module to fool him.
But at least Hades got useful information. It turned out to be his untouchable physique
Now I know where this malice comes from.
Hades felt a chill and hoped that he could return safely, rather than becoming a thesis of some biological sage.
Servius led a new batch of Ultramarines over. I could faintly hear them praising a fierce Ultramarines.
Regardless of all that, Hades quickly stood up to welcome them, and joked with a smile that Servius had been promoted.
Although most of the Ultramarines are good at dealing with human relationships, they are still unable to cope with Hades's spoof words.
Servius smiled and introduced the new Ultramarines to Hades, and his words already showed that he hoped Hades would take care of them.
Hades sighed to himself, he had only been here for three years.
How come I became a senior again
However, what Hades didn't know was that his rapid learning progress, coupled with his record in the duel cage, and his talent for being able to grab a piece of cake from different groups of technical sergeants at any time, had long amazed the Extreme Marines, and they had secretly included Hades as their study object.
While thinking about the conversation just now and dealing with the conversation with the Ultramarines, Hades looked up and just happened to see in the distance, a huge material carriage was loaded into the Ultramarines' transport ship.
"Does Mars provide supplies of materials other than weapons and ammunition?"
Hades blurted out subconsciously,
The new soldier next to Servius smiled.
"That is a material that is more compatible with psychic energy. It was specially requested by a brother who is currently building a planet."
Oh, infrastructure, a Smurf tradition.
Hades didn't think much about this.
