The Protoss in Warhammer

Chapter 397 385. Brand new territory

An Shi quickly solved his diplomatic problems. There is no doubt that under such circumstances, the human generals were forced to accept such conditions.

This is very good news. It means that the 12th senior officers of the human navy have accepted their surrender and rejoined the army. Although the tactics and many of their concepts learned by these people cannot be well integrated, and there may even be great risks (this risk is basically not considered, because otherwise, if they are caught in the end, even if they defect, they will die more easily), there is no doubt that with their help, at least the concerns of the human army on those planets can be calmed, and a better foundation can be laid for the next expansion.

An Shi looked at the yellow sand-covered planet in front of him, and his heart was full of joy and pride. In fact, he is not a soldier. In name, he is a philosophy professor in the Philosophy College of the El Empire University, but he seems to be very famous for his military actions.

From his name, you may have been able to see that this old titanium man belongs to the mysterious Ether clan. Tens of thousands of years ago, when their civilization was just starting, the Ether Clan was their leader. But when this young race set foot on the starry sky, the luck and motivation that originally pushed them forward seemed to end there.

First, the Dark Eldar, then the Orks, and finally the Tal'darim. If it weren't for the fact that the Khalai who resolved the Age of Strife noticed that their home planet was on the verge of destruction, this race would have most likely disappeared in the galaxy, and as the leadership of the entire race, the Ether Clan suffered a devastating blow.

But not all Ethers died, and some of them still live to this day. Among the Tau, this part of the survivors still has a very high status and usually holds very important positions.

Just like Ammonia Shi, he is an absolute surprise among so many scholars. After all, no scholar would carry his own weapons to the front line to kill the enemy, and it was still close combat. This is incredible for a race like the Tau that is only suitable for long-range attacks.

Of course, don't think that he only has some fancy skills. In several battles, scholars have shown terrible fighting talents. Once, in front of everyone, he only took a few breaths to successfully cut off the head of an orc boss without any harm to himself.

So, although his main job is a scholar, he still has the rank of captain and the status of Templar in the army. Don't underestimate the rank of captain. It is because of this rank that the Templars can join the command system. Only in this way can they be qualified or said to be able to command troops in the regular army.

This can be referred to the Astartes of the human empire. First, they have knights in the imperial noble system, and then they use the rank of captain in the imperial army (this is why the Astra Militarum soldiers in the Space Marine PC game call Titus Captain Titus).

The gap between the Templar and the other is similar, but the difference is that this title also represents many honors and can also be awarded to other soldiers who are not in the Kalai Empire. You can be a scholar, a doctor, or a teacher, but in this galaxy full of wars, there is a hard requirement to become a Templar in Kalai:

You must have strong command ability and excellent combat ability. Only in this way can you get this honorary title. Does it sound a bit like the military merit award system? In fact, it is almost the same.

This is why Gray immediately expanded the scale of the Templars after his return, just like expanding the scale of the nobles, because the military merit award system will not only give other different races a room for advancement, but also let this empire that has not experienced war for more than 10,000 years bathe in blood again. Some people may ask if there will be no problem with so many Templars?

First of all, there are already very few Templars in Kalai, so there is no need to worry about the expansion of this class. Secondly, in this dangerous galaxy, there will never be a lack of death and blood, so the mobility of this class is very huge.

Looking at the yellow sandy planet in front of them, the first landing troops have arrived. I have been watching those brave soldiers coming to that piece of yellow earth to carry out propaganda. Their task is to establish an outpost there and communicate with local forces. Many planets of the human empire are not only ruled by the empire. In fact, these planets belong not only to the empire, but also to the people on them, and there are a lot of forces on them.

The various forces on these planets can even fight and attack each other, and the only thing they have to do is to pay their taxes to the empire regularly.

Of course, Kalai must not do this. It is necessary to stimulate all the potential of each planet, rather than the kind of rough cultivation. Therefore, the expeditionary force will do its best to unite them. No matter what method is used, it must make this planet perfect for the entire empire.

All the plans originally went smoothly. The troops did not encounter any obstruction when they landed, and the local tribes also welcomed their arrival. When the expeditionary force arrived here, they discovered something very strange. That was that the leaders of the local tribe that greeted them were all young people. They looked to be in their early 20s, or even in their teens.

At first, the soldiers of the expeditionary force did not think there was any problem, because it was probably local custom, so there was no big problem. But after a week, the problem suddenly appeared:

In the local garrison, a terrible disease spread without any reason. In just seven days, all soldiers over 30 years old suddenly got the disease, and then without any warning, within two or three days, all soldiers over 30 years old suddenly got the disease. die within a period of time. The frightened soldiers quickly moved the relatively normal patients away from the planet, but strangely, as soon as they left the constraints of the planet's gravity, this terrible disease was immediately cured.

And when some brave soldiers returned to the surface of the planet, their disease actually started to attack again, without any reason or reason.

In order to solve this problem, they asked the locals for help, and the local aborigines told them a terrible news:

On this planet, no one can live over 30 years old. Anyone over 30 years old will die due to various reasons and diseases, so there are only young people here. Legend has it that this is because this planet has bred the humans on it and will take their lives back at the right time as a reward for allowing them to be on this planet.

After hearing this terrible story, the old Ether did not believe it, but he also understood that there must be something wrong with this planet, so he immediately reported it to Al, and Al also gave the greatest attention to the matter. s concern.

When Gray saw this important information, he immediately made his decision:

Let the expedition fleet closest to here go to find out the cause and solve this problem!
