From Titan Corporation to the Empire of Man

Inside the bridge of the CCS-class battlecruiser;

"Captain! That group of unknown militants has captured the air valve cabin and is currently attacking the bridge!"

"Wait, Captain! Captain Garol is actually guiding them!"

In the bridge, the sound of reports from the elites in their native language could be heard.

The golden-armored captain had already left his exclusive seat and stood next to the center console, watching the surveillance video with an extremely solemn expression.

I saw Riemann, four thunder warriors with undiminished combat power and sound limbs, and a red-armored elite who had no choice but to act as a guide, using the gravity elevator to enter the interior of the CCS.

Since more than 90% of the combat troops have been dispatched to the ground, the internal defense force of the flagship at this moment is extremely weak, but this is not the point.

The point is, they clearly have an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, but the combat capabilities and physical fitness displayed by those giants are far superior to their elites and the Jiralhanae beasts with no glory to speak of. They only paid half of the casualties and defeated the enemy. The entire battalion is responsible for the defensive front.

"Ow"

The golden-armored captain let out a low roar.

Moreover, the physiques and heights of these twenty guards are also among the best among the elite.

After giving all the instructions, the golden-armored captain turned and walked out of the bridge.

As for it, it is equivalent to the "general" of the general level.

"interesting."

This shows that Riemann has successfully convinced Garol through his martial arts skills.

For example, the blue-armored elites who command combat teams are usually impulsive young warriors who have just left the Sangheili home planet and have little actual combat experience. They have the military rank of "corps leader."

The military rank system of the Covenant is similar to that of Earth's feudal era.

So the golden-armored captain knows every junior member of the same race whom he has personally promoted, and Garol is actually willing to guide Riemann in the right direction?

Except for the Jiralhanae Beast Association, all "people" need to obey its command and dispatch.

"Yes, Captain."

At the same time, the twenty elite guards waiting outside walked slowly towards the connecting area not far away and with a relatively spacious space.

It stared at Riemann on the holographic screen, and the red-armored elite walking in front of Riemann, or rather, a fellow member named Garol, thoughtfully.

Its spear blade and tip emit a light blue energy blade and a subtle "buzzing" sound.

It seems that, as a fighting race, it seems to hope to fight Riemann.

The golden-armored captain couldn't help but murmur to himself, and his eyes even revealed "fiery"? ?

So after a brief silence, the golden-armored captain ordered: "Inform the guards to follow me to the connection area, and the remaining personnel will stay on the bridge. By the way, send a few more combat teams to the engine room to protect Engineer Harak."

After all, it has commanded this Covenant fleet for more than six Earth years and promoted many of its own race. Garol is also one of the juniors it focuses on training, preparing to develop into a captain who can lead an army alone.

Swish-!

As the automatic sensor door opened and closed, the "Supreme Commander", who was much stronger and thirty centimeters taller than ordinary elites, left the bridge.

They are equipped with more advanced power armor, painted in bright orange that is close to gold, and hold spear-like power spears.

Garol, who was leading the way for Riemann and others, was a senior corps leader, so the red paint of the power armor was a little dull.

However, it is sometimes called the "Supreme Commander" by the Grunts and Jackals, because in the eyes of that group of races, it has absolute say in this fleet.

It is called a "blade of light", but it is essentially an extremely high-temperature, extremely high-energy plasma bound by a magnetic field.

Atlas also has corresponding technology, but it cannot be miniaturized or individualized for the time being. It is currently only used in the "Titan" project of giant mecha weapons.

After a while.

The golden-armored captain led his personal guard to the connecting area with several deck corridors connecting different areas.

The bulkhead here is painted with a layer of light purple paint and is almost the size of six basketball courts.

They waited patiently for a moment.

Swish-!

Soon, one of the sensor doors opened.

Boom, boom!

The heavy footsteps made by the mithril power armor and the magnetic boots of the titanium tank echoed in the connection area.

At this time, Riemann, four Thunder Warriors, and "Guide" Garol appeared in front of the golden-armored captain and the elite guards.

"Waiting for us? Okay, okay, it will save us a lot of time."

Riemann still joked casually, then looked down at Garol and said:

"Man, go and explain the reason to your commander."

"Ow"

Garol sighed helplessly, broke away from the team, came to the center of the connection area, and explained in their native Sangheili language:

"Commander, hey! Please forgive me for leading the way."

"Who are they?" the golden-armored captain asked bluntly, without worrying too much about why Garol did what he did.

"I don't know either. They flashed directly into the woods through the miraculous transmission system.

After that, they only launched lethal attacks against the Jiralhanae, but showed mercy to our fellow humans. Otherwise, I would not appear in front of you.

also"

Garol reported everything he saw to the golden armored captain.

However, observing from Riemann's perspective, he only heard the tones of "Ouch?", "Ouch", "Ouch!"

Several minutes passed.

Garol said solemnly: "Commander, I think they already knew part of our information and intelligence before they formally contacted us.

Moreover, they also understand what kind of bastards Jiralhanae are, so they choose to kill them without mercy, but they take good care of us Sangheili. "

"Well," the golden-armored captain nodded lightly, "It seems like they are asking for something from us, or maybe

He hopes to form an alliance with us, but! "

As the golden-armored captain spoke, he held two sword-hilt-like objects in his hands, and then swung them left and right——

Buzz~! Buzz!

Two plasma sword blades emitting dazzling blue light instantly extended outward from the hilt and condensed into shape.

The golden-armored captain looked directly at Riemann, who was wearing a helmet and the eye monitor emitted red light, and said in a serious tone:

"However, I need to verify for myself whether they are worthy of our Sangheili friendship."

"."

Hearing this, Garol withdrew to the side very sensibly.

When Riemann saw this, he also understood that the golden-armored captain was preparing to challenge him in a duel.

remarkably brave.

He remained silent, walked forward slowly, and imitated the actions of the golden-armored captain. After pulling out the Sword of Winter with his right hand, he flicked it fiercely.

Thunder—pop—!

Bright blue psychic lightning danced on the shimmering sword blade.

Immediately afterwards, Riemann raised his left hand and waved it towards the golden-armored captain, making a provocative move.

"Ouch!! Cuobala (seeking death)!!"

The golden-armored captain naturally understood the intention of the gesture, and immediately took steps towards Riemann.
