I, Superman, the Supreme Commander

Chapter 194: Hive Reshuffle and Star Rebuilding

"Hahaha, Mario Bros., that sword you gave me is really useful!"

"Come on, brother, toast to you!"

Gurg happily brought some of the captured spoils to the new base of the Weak Mutual Aid Association to have a drink with Mario Hughes.

Because several large gangs in the Bottom Nest were wiped out by unknown forces, Gurge led his [Liberator Brotherhood] to take advantage of the chaos, killed many enemies, liberated a large number of slaves, seized a large amount of weapons and equipment, and expanded their power several times.

The "Weak Mutual Aid Association", an ally, also received a generous reward and took in many old and weak slaves, especially children.

Originally, they suffered heavy losses due to the collapse of the bottom nest, but now, not only have the personnel been replenished, but the equipment has also been upgraded, making them even stronger than before.

Mario Hughes felt like he was in a dream during this time.

Nothing has been so smooth sailing for him since he came to the nest.

It seems that there is some kind of power in the dark that makes bad people unlucky and good people lucky, and it is the law of karma.

For this, Mario and his companions could only attribute it to the blessing of the God-Emperor. They worshipped and prayed every day, thanking the great God-Emperor for having mercy on these poor people.

"By the way, I have news for you."

Halfway through the drinks, Gurge said mysteriously, "I heard that the nobles at the top of the tower were also massacred, and almost one-third of their families were wiped out. It is said that even the planetary governor doesn't know who did it. And I heard that those who were killed were all notorious bad guys."

"In short, no matter whether it's above or below us, the worst and most evil people in the hive were killed inexplicably. Don't you think this is weird?"

Mario nodded. "It's really weird. My kids reported that the atmosphere in the Bottom Nest has improved recently. Those gangs don't dare to act so arrogantly anymore."

"I heard that the bodies of those criminals were found in the sewers the next day. People say that there is a ghost enforcing justice in the hive, but no one has ever seen this ghost..."

Various rumors spread in the hive.

Not only was the planetary governor Ivan Lermontov troubled, but the news also reached the ears of the 2nd Company of the Ash Claws stationed in this system.

“What do you think, Sagan?”

Julius asked his military advisor, the company's chief think tank.

Sagan said calmly: "There are three possibilities: a trick of the devil, an alien infiltration, or the work of a psychic force."

"You didn't say anything..."

Julius was speechless. "Then tell me, what do they want to do?"

"Who knows? I'm not the Inquisition. But no matter what he wants to do, as long as the planet is not in chaos and taxes are paid on time, it's fine."

"That's right. It won't be too late for us to take action after the fox's tail is exposed."

As for the mortal world, the Ash Claws and other Space Marine chapters usually hold a superior attitude and do not want to interfere in the infighting among mortals - as long as they do not hinder the chapter's tax collection and pay various income on time.

The Astartes don't bother with the mortals' struggles for power and profit.

Anyway, no matter who comes to power, they have to listen to these [Angels of Judgment] and pay taxes obediently (thumbs up from the U.S. Department of Internal Revenue).

"Send invitations to the families in Shangchao, and tell them that an auction will be held in three days, and the highest bidder for the inheritance will win!"

After some thought, Ivan Lermontov used auction to deal with the inheritance of the nobles who were massacred by unknown forces.

If the Lermontov family swallowed up these inheritances themselves, they would inevitably become the target of public criticism and face hostility from other forces, and some might even think that the Lermontov family was the mastermind behind the incident.

It would be better to auction these ownerless items. The Lermontov family would eat the meat, and others would also drink the soup. A group of people could also be promoted from the lower-level dignitaries to fill the power gap in the hive city.

Get more in one fell swoop.

In this way, Persephone's power was reorganized from top to bottom, and a major reshuffle of the ruling class took place.

The 2nd Company of the Ash Claws was busy recruiting new soldiers, selecting elite warriors from various planets and sending them to those outer planets to hunt down the participating aliens and receive training from the Astartes monks in actual combat.

Those who finally pass the cruel trial of death and are screened out from the ninth level are equivalent to selecting the elite among the elite from billions of ordinary people and become candidates for Astartes.

While everyone was busy, a major event happened in the Hades galaxy without any warning.

On this day, the busy human residents of the Hades galaxy suddenly noticed that the sky was brighter than ever and the temperature was hotter than the warmest summer of the year.

They subconsciously raised their heads and looked in the direction where the light came from, and then saw a scene that they would never forget.

——Three days in the sky.

Three stars in the Hades Galaxy appeared in the sky at the same time and moved rapidly.

The two small secondary stars, Death and Hydra, were moving quickly towards the main star [Pluto] - very quickly, not an exaggeration at all, within a few dozen seconds of everyone's attention, the two secondary stars crossed hundreds of millions of kilometers and moved to the side of the main star.

Then, under everyone's shocked gaze, the two secondary stars silently collided into the main star.

Then, a dazzling light that was impossible to look directly at burst out from the main star.

Except for the Space Marines wearing special visual aid system helmets and a few dignitaries, no one could see clearly what happened next.

Julius stood on the deck of the new Flamingo with a look of shock on his face. In his six thousand years of life, he had been to countless places in the Milky Way, but had never seen such an incredible sight.

After the two secondary stars collided with the main star, the three stars actually began to merge into one, instead of the big explosion that people imagined.

In just a few breaths, the three stars merged into a larger orange star, and actually transformed directly from a red dwarf to a yellow dwarf!

That is, a star as bright and warm as the solar system where Holy Terra is located.

Time, unprecedented light shines on every world in the Hades galaxy.

Human beings who were born and raised in this dim world saw for the first time the real sunlight, which was holy, bright and warm, just like the first ray of light in the creation of the world in mythology.

A strong shock went straight to the heart, and people were stunned for a long time.

The sunlight dispelled the coldness of the Hades galaxy, and Persephone, which had been at minus ten degrees Celsius all year round, quickly became warm.

The golden light enveloped the earth, penetrating the gray clouds that shrouded the planet all year round, as if cleansing the air.

Even the experienced nobleman on the top of the tower, the planetary governor Ivan Lermontov, trembled all over in the sunlight and was speechless.

After a few minutes, the newborn golden star in space completely stabilized and emitted constant light and heat.

Many residents of the Hades galaxy are unaware of the burns to their retinas from looking directly at stars, and it feels like they have experienced an incredible dream.

"Send the probe! I want to know what's happening right away!"

Julius ordered immediately. His heart was filled with anxiety and doubt. Something beyond his comprehension had happened. This was too abnormal!

【The yellow sun is still more pleasing to the eye. 】

Zhang Hong wiped the non-existent sweat from his head and looked at the reborn star with a satisfied smile.

Then it flew into the star and received the strengthening of the yellow sun.

Consciousness is transferred to the Persephone hive and operated remotely.

In the Bottom Nest garbage area, a massacre had just ended, and more than a dozen corpses were scattered around the garbage mountain.

No one noticed that in a remote corner, a dead body that had already died suddenly emitted a faint white light.

The corpse twitched, blurred into a mosaic, and then changed and reorganized like pixels.

In the blink of an eye, he shrunk from a skinny middle-aged man into a short-haired black boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old.

A pair of black eyes opened in the darkness, emitting a faint golden light.
