Chapter 2219 The Sorrow of the Underworld
Soshiyan was a little surprised by the other party's words, but he knew who Tulazhen was, the current leader of the imperial guards.
"Hmm? Your words...I don't quite understand."
"For the past ten thousand years, the empire has stagnated in many aspects, but it has reached the level of expert in the application of violence. But what's bad is that more and more things are difficult to solve with unrestricted force. An expedition, its biggest enemy and strongest weapon are never violence. You have the mindset to solve problems other than violence, which is very important."
After saying this seemingly meaningful sentence, Varelian nodded to Villets.
"Welcome back to Terra, Grand Sister Villet."
Then comes Faisal.
"And I will not disturb your next journey, but we will talk about it in a more appropriate place."
Varelian looked at Soshiyan and put on his helmet again.
"goodbye."
After saying that, the imperial guards turned around and left.
After they left, Soshiyan burst into laughter and looked at Faisal.
"The Imperial Guard...is a bit beyond my expectations. It seems that I am a little stereotyped about these palace guards."
The other party shrugged.
"Lord Valerian is actually quite special. He... He has always been known for his gentleness. Although he is only compared to the imperial guards, he is also a company commander who appears in public more often."
"After saying this, I am somewhat looking forward to meeting that Marshal Tulachen."
"It depends on which adult's decision."
Then, with the assistance of the guide ship, the fleet passed through the void checkpoints and flew towards the desolate Pluto. During this process, Soshyan sat in a relatively casual chair and chatted with Villets about the stories of Terra and the Imperial Guards. Because the headquarters of the Ebony Grail Order, the Ebony Grail Cathedral, is located in Terra, Villets has a relatively good understanding of the Imperial Guards.
"...Turazin Valoris is the seventeenth and current commander of the Imperial Guard. He is also a member of the Supreme Lord, but he rarely appears in the meeting of the Imperial Guards. There is another rumor about the Imperial Guards, that is, the fifteenth commander Galahot and the sixteenth commander Andros Longsdre were in office for very short time, and the time and cause of death are somewhat strange, which may involve the internal power struggle of the Imperial Guards... but there are also rumors that the fifteenth commander Galahot did not die but died."
"...The imperial guards don't leave the palace most of the time. It is said that because of the existence of the restriction order, it is rumored that Marshal Tulajan has been trying to break the ban, but there has been no actual action yet..."
"...It is rumored that the number of the imperial guards may have returned to the 1000-man regiment during the Great Expedition, but there is no actual evidence..."
Soshiyang suddenly chuckled.
"The Imperial Guard is really mysterious, everything is rumor... Does the state religion and the Imperial Guard have any intersection?"
Villets nodded slightly.
"After the end of the apostasy, it was the then Imperial Commander Exeso who persuaded Saint Sebastian Thor to become the new pope of the state religion. To this day, the paintings of the Imperial Commander who granted scepters and crowns to the saints on the frescoes of the cathedral can still be seen on the murals of the cathedral."
At this time, the broadcast of the bridge rang.
"...is approaching Pluto and Charon..."
Soshyan stood up from his chair, accompanied by Villets, and walked a few steps, staring at the Dead Pluto and its Gemini satellite Charon. They were like two pearls, one big and one small, connected together by invisible silk threads, hanging in the void. However, if you look closely, you will find that there are many huge impact craters on the surface of Charon's planet, and the well-connected routes made the surrounding space full of various ships, tugboats and void outposts. You can even see many small anti-smuggling ships affiliated to the Ministry of Justice swiftly shuttled through the ship current. (Tumble here for a comment.
, I don’t know if I don’t read it. When I look at the settings of gw’s solar system, I rely on that mistake, and some of them are quite outrageous. It is understandable to write astronomy in the 1980s and 1990s. But in the 21st century, the settings have been updated so many times, and I have eaten so many books, and I am reluctant to update the settings of the solar system. First of all, Pluto was confirmed in 2006 that it was not a planet, but a dwarf planet, and it is not the largest dwarf planet. Eris is bigger than it. Could it be that those people in gw basically do not pay attention to astronomy news and information?)
As a dwarf planet at the edge of the solar system, Pluto is not only relatively small in mass, but also has very low temperatures. The same is true for Charon. Strictly speaking, this satellite is even considered a dwarf planet, and its size is more than half that of Pluto. Due to its harsh environment, the two dwarf planets are not suitable for humans to live directly, but even so, they still have underground cities with a large population.
In addition, Pluto originally had four smaller satellites, which were not much larger than the large starships of the Imperial Navy, had a limited population and were mostly used for military defense facilities.
But now, Soshiyang could only see two satellites, so he subconsciously asked:
"It seems like Pluto...is missing two satellites?"
"... During the Horus Rebellion, Pluto and its satellites became the main offensive direction of the Alpha Legion, and the first large-scale battle of the Throne Guards broke out here. Later, in the final stage of the war, Pluto became the battlefield again. The greatest champion of the Empire's Fist, the first Grand Marshal of the Black Temple, Sigsmond, resisted the large-scale attack of the rebels. During the battle, the Sigsmond, the Sigsmond, the Nether Guard, was completely destroyed by the trap set by Sigsmond, and destroyed a large number of
Traitors and hundreds of warships, but at the same time they also destroyed the Three Sethra of the Nether Guards and caused irreversible huge damage to the One Sethra. Pluto and its remaining satellites were then taken back by the Empire during the Great Purge... You see, there is a memorial built on huge rock fragments, which is used to commemorate the Battle of Cerberos. The rock is also the largest remaining fragment of the Four Sethra. Every time the Black Holy Church sends new recruits to this memorial hall to commemorate their great first leader."
This time, Villetz served as Soshyan's "historical teacher". Listening to the origin of Pluto's missing two satellites, Soshyan nodded slightly and stared at the memorial that Villet pointed to on the huge rock fragments.
It floated next to the fragments of the Netherworld, away from the channel, and was fixed in the void with gravitational devices. The memorial above was very unique in shape, with a cross shape of a large top and a narrow bottom, like a sharp sword inserted into a rock.
But it seems that no ships are heading there.
“Is it not open normally?”
"Yes, because it contains top-secret historical data and materials, the Cerberos Memorial is a special memorial hall, and only specific people or persons approved can be allowed to visit."
Soshyan looked at Villets and smiled:
"So I don't know if we go and have a look, is it inconvenient for Fang?"
Villets returned with a warm smile.
