Warhammer, about my years with the Wolfpack

If the previous battle had been a foregone conclusion, now it was a matter of crushing destruction, a clean sweep. The orcs retreated, pursued by the Imperial fleet. Countless shells overtook the fleeing warships, reducing them to cosmic dust.

Only a handful of Imperial warships still had a few greenskins who had successfully boarded, but it didn't matter; they would be quickly eliminated by the Wolves. The entire battle went remarkably smoothly, even easier than Balder had imagined. After all, many of his prepared tactics hadn't been used, such as the frigates stationed in the secondary line, ready to penetrate the fleet and launch a close-range torpedo attack if the enemy's remaining large warships approached, and the aircraft carriers ready to launch their carrier-based fighters.

"Let's go, help the Primarch! Go around from the side and crush him!" Baldur commanded. Meanwhile, on the battlefield, the right wing, commanded by Holmi, was still engaged. The Ork fleet on the right wing was about the same size as the left. It was clear that Holmi's fleet lacked Baldur's formidable long-range firepower. Meanwhile, the Wolves seemed to prefer close-range engagements. They actively moved closer, using their shorter-range but more powerful macrocannons and boarding maneuvers to decide the outcome.

Meanwhile, Rus's main force was making rapid progress, after all, thanks to the presence of the Glorious Queen-class battleship. Such a super battleship could still play a crucial role in a fleet engagement of relatively modest size. Furthermore, Rus's tactical prowess wasn't as low as Balder had imagined.

Russ allocated his fleet and legion personnel very well. His flagship and the battleships filled with Space Marines were located in the front, forming an iron barrier, waiting for the attack from the opposite side. No matter whether the orcs were in close combat or boarding, they would encounter the hardest fist of the Wild Wolves.

Russ then concentrated his warships, equipped with lances and long-range artillery, in the second line, providing long-range fire support. This concentrated firepower was used to neutralize the enemy's high-threat units. Torpedo-equipped light cruisers and destroyers were also divided into several groups to counterattack and disrupt the enemy's formation. Boarding parties were still essential, and their effectiveness depended on the performance of their officers and men.

The entire plan was developed with the help of Balder. Simply put, it involves categorizing different warships according to their missions and characteristics. The specific implementation of this plan is up to Russ. So far, Russ's work has surpassed Balder's expectations. However, Russ seems unimpressed by aircraft carriers, which is a bit disappointing. Having sufficient aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft would have made it much easier to counter the Ork boarding ships and concentrated fire.

Of course, Rus's biggest problem in this battle was that he did not fully follow Bader's advice and spared enough forces to strengthen his right wing, that is, Holm's fleet, which caused the latter's predicament.

"Extract data from the surface of Oriel II for me. I need to prepare for the next battle." Balder, while giving orders, was also contemplating the upcoming battle. Balder's command style at this moment was somewhat unique. His brain could process vast amounts of information simultaneously, multitasking and communicating with others through psychic powers. Multitasking was a given. The space battle was nearing its end; there was no need to worry; the ground battle ahead would be more complex.

According to the data, this was once a human industrial world decades ago, with humans possessing the ability to navigate within the galaxy. However, the sudden Waaaaa destroyed both worlds. Although many humans still live in the corners and underground of these two planets, there is no doubt that this place has been controlled by the Greenskins. A large-scale land war or even street fighting is inevitable. After all, this will be their home turf, and they can't just blow everything up. Habitable planets are a precious resource in this universe.

Chapter 55: Battle Interval

"Damn it! Those orcs are crazy. They are powerful and brutal, wielding crude weapons and emitting a foul stench. And then they charge forward fearlessly."

"But fortunately, we are stronger and defeated them with our fury and battle axes."

"I love this kind of life, fighting! Glory and conquest!"

"Unfortunately, in this battle, a young fellow I was very optimistic about was lost. I had wanted to promote him to be my guard." In the legion hall on Russ's flagship, the Space Wolves officers were talking to each other. They expressed their feelings about the battle and remembered their fallen comrades.

In the Legion Hall, everyone was divided into small groups, gathered around their wolf lords, discussing, bragging, and drinking. Most were in high spirits. The wolves who had fought alongside Russ displayed their wounds and trophies to their comrades, while Balder's subordinates leisurely discussed their own affairs. Sometimes, both sides would exchange harmless banter.

Russ's men would ask Balder's men how many heads they had chopped off, and Balder's men would respond by asking how many ships they had destroyed and how many men they had lost. In this battle, the losses suffered by the left-wing Space Marines were surprisingly minimal, with many units suffering no casualties. While the men of Fenris favored close combat, they preferred to avoid casualties if possible.

Compared to Russ and Bader's fleets, Holm's performance was rather poor. His fleet was in dire straits. Although Russ quickly dispatched a fleet to provide support after realizing the problem, his fleet suffered heavy losses compared to the others. And his battle record wasn't particularly good. Holm's Dalian was the most silent, and the members of another Dalian, temporarily under Holm's command, were even more critical of him.

However, neither Russ nor Balder meant to blame Holmi. After all, Balder had pointed out the problem that the right-wing fleet was too thin. Although they all had two large companies, Balder had the Morning Star Fleet, his own guards, and the Endless Journey.

Holmi only had two Grand Companies and a few attached Imperial Fleets. Although Russ had previously appropriately reinforced some non-Chapter forces, Holmi's fleet was still too weak overall. In terms of tactical command, Holmi was clearly no match for Russ and Balder.

"I should take some responsibility for the losses on the right wing. I underestimated the strength of the right-wing orc fleet." On the high platform beside the hall, Rus looked at his heirs below and said to Balder with a little sadness.

"Just a minor setback. I should have provided some assistance to the right wing," Balder said, but his heart wasn't thinking the same thing. Russ's problem wasn't just underestimating his opponent, but underestimating the Mechanicus fleet and certain unique technologies. This was the crux of the matter!

All things being equal, the Mechanicus fleet is undoubtedly stronger than the average Space Marine fleet. The Queen of Glory's strength is a unique case in point, while the Mechanicus fleet is universally formidable. No one knows what they possess. Furthermore, the existence of some relic warships and technologies surpasses the imagination of ordinary people.

Do you really think that just because we're all Legions, we all have the same equipment and technology? Are you kidding me? Just look at the Battle of Thramas during the Horus Heresy, when the Lion King led 6 men and shattered Curze's entire Night Lords fleet. Curze was able to hold out for years thanks to guerrilla warfare; a head-on confrontation would have been a complete loss! As the Lion King said, Tuchucha's Trans-Dimensional Face-Off is incredibly effective!

In Balder's opinion, Russ was still a little naive. In this chaotic era of 30K, how could a legion survive without its own little secrets, technology and hard work?

"Be happy, my brother. No matter what, this is a great victory. Even if judged by the Emperor, it is excellent." Balder patted Rus's shoulder and comforted him.

"So what then? We have to attack the surface of the planet. If we advance head-on, we will pay a huge price. If possible, I hope to use the advantage of the fleet to directly behead the orc leader and his direct troops. And then clean up the remaining orcs." Rus said. In the post-war summary, Balder had already told Rus the relevant information.

"Okay, I will be responsible for mobilizing and restraining the orc troops." Balder said.

"That's not what I meant..." Russ was stunned at first, thinking Balder meant for him to play support. "We can win this honor together."

"As the leader of the Legion, the glory of the first battle should be yours. As for me, I want to test my tactics: a tactic based on rapid aerial strikes and fierce close-range assaults," Balder said nonchalantly. "Also, as the Legion's second-in-command, I believe I can utilize my preferred tactics, but I must also not forget the Legion's traditions."

More than winning the battle, Balder was worried about how to get along with the Wolf Pack. Balder had proven himself strong and right. He had the entire Legion heed his advice. Russ wouldn't easily dismiss Balder's ideas. And as long as Russ didn't speak up, the Wolf Pack wouldn't object, even if they were dissatisfied.

However, this was not the result that Balder wanted, because they might not object, but that did not mean they would accept it, nor did it mean they would cooperate with him or love him.

Balder had once believed that all he needed to do was manage the Second Company and those closest to him, while also reminding Russ when he ran into problems and offering assistance when he encountered difficulties. However, today's battle had opened Balder's eyes to a dire possibility: what if, in a fateful war, problems arose on the side of his allies?

Uniting the strong and the obedient is a simple art of ruling. However, everything has its price. Choosing the simple approach will raise your lower limit, but lower your upper limit. In the future, many issues will be beyond the reach of just two or three Great Companies, or even beyond the reach of the Wild Wolf Legion alone. Balder will inevitably collaborate with other Legions in the future. The principle of collaborating with only a small group is clearly untenable.

If you want to unite a group of people, you must at least try to understand them. You can despise their thinking and tactics, but at least understand their perspective. Originally, Baldur was reluctant to intervene in the early planetary assaults because, like the landing battles in the 2K era, this would limit the use of his advantages and result in casualties, which Baldur cared about most.

But Bader will inevitably have to do many things in the future that he is unwilling to do. He must also try to get close to others and gain their favor in an environment of fighting side by side, and then you can try to persuade them and change them.

Now, a contradiction confronted Balder: the high casualties of a landing operation versus his desired low losses. After much deliberation, he found only one solution: to go in person. It wasn't that Balder was confident in his own combat prowess, but rather that those barbarians were inferior to him. If he didn't go, who would? That was the essence of responsibility. As for what Balder would gain? Perhaps it would just address his own shortcomings.

This shortcoming isn't simply a matter of ability. Even in close combat, whether personally engaging in combat or commanding, Balder is incredibly strong. He possesses a superior physical foundation and unfettered psychic powers. His perceived weakness is only relative. More importantly, if Balder wants to overcome his psychological challenges, he must learn to do useful things, even if they're not his cup of tea. A barrel shouldn't have any shortcomings.

"Rapid air strikes and fierce close-range attacks? Tell me in detail." Rus asked.

"Rapid strikes are the concentrated use of air power to attack key targets across space in a short period of time. In order to achieve the best results in the shortest time, close combat is inevitable. Although there are huge risks, it is still indispensable. I may have overlooked this point before. Or I avoided it psychologically." Bader said.

"It's good that you're aware of this. The long-range precision attacks of the Endless Journey and the Mechanicus fleet are indeed deadly, but the side effects of such attacks are too high. We can't all engage in crushing battles in the future. When time is of the essence, fierce and decisive close-quarters combat is necessary."

Russ displayed a teachable expression. The smug glee on his face betrayed what was going on in his mind at the moment: he was happy that he had finally managed to convince Balder. This caused the latter to raise his brow slightly in dissatisfaction.

Honestly, in all the years they'd been working together, even though Rus was the king, he'd never been able to completely convince Balder in the areas of planning and strategy that Balder excelled at. Usually, Balder would propose something, and Rus would choose to accept or reject it. Balder would then persuade Rus, and the two would make some compromises before proceeding.

This time, Russ was pleasantly surprised to learn that Balder had already conducted his own self-examination. Perhaps his purpose wasn't simply to experiment with tactics, but the specific purpose didn't matter to Russ. As long as Balder was willing to personally engage in bloody and brutal battles with his colleagues on the front lines, the relationship between the two sides would inevitably grow closer.

"Go and appease Holmi. I'll go do my own thing." Balder shrugged and left the hall. He was still not used to this kind of social activity.

Chapter 56 Sky Patroller

"My Lord, the equipment you want has been prepared. It is now in Hangar No. 3 waiting for your call." Balder, who had just returned to the flagship, received a message from the Endless Journey.

"Very good, let's go and take a look. This will completely overturn the combat style of Space Marines, or at least change the combat style of the Sixth Legion." Balder nodded and said, ten minutes later, Balder and Heimdall arrived at the door of Hangar No. 3.

"What a tall hangar! It's much taller than a normal hangar, isn't it?" Heimdall said, looking at the huge cabin before him. The Endless Journey was a huge and mysterious warship. It was said that most of its cabins had never been entered. As a guest, Heimdall was even more curious. Therefore, he was full of curiosity about this huge warship.

"Go in, perhaps what's inside is even more astonishing." Balder smiled. As the door opened, the group arrived at one of the Infinity's largest hangars. The behemoth that appeared before them shocked everyone except Balder! The largest Stormbird in the Legion was no more than a fawn next to an elephant!

"In the heyday of human civilization, it and its brothers were called Sky Surveyors. This is a large aerospace vehicle that can fight both in the void and within the atmosphere. Without considering the fleet, these guys are the real masters of planetary wars." Balder explained with a smile.

The object before him truly met Balder's aesthetic standards. It was a tailless flying wing aircraft, 160 meters long, over 70 meters wide, and reaching a maximum height of over 20 meters. It was completely different from the Imperial aircraft, which were simply a box with wings. The former's design incorporated advanced aerodynamics. After all, even the Adeptus Mechanicus couldn't claim that the Stormbird complied with aerodynamics... Its shell was composed of a continuous curved surface. Standing before it was like facing a giant eagle, wings spread, ready to take flight.

"I told you, the technology tree in the Warhammer world really has problems, and the Sky Surveyor has made up for one of the shortcomings." Balder looked at the huge existence in front of him and thought with satisfaction, touching his chin.

Warhammer has many problematic settings. For example, in space, both sides engage in battle using massive warships that are often over 5000 meters tall. Yet, in ground combat, how big are the Titans, known as God Machines? Not only is the Emperor class too fantastical, but the average warlord is only 40 to 50 meters tall. This is hilarious. There's a clear lack of transition between the weapon levels of space and ground combat. Furthermore, as mentioned in the Warhammer lore, Titans weren't a big deal in the Golden Age.

Although GW has mentioned many times in its settings that it is difficult for warships to descend to a low enough altitude to fight, which may lead to disintegration or other accidents, all large warships are built in starports. Otherwise, even if it is a destroyer, once it enters the atmosphere, fighting Titans and tanks would be a piece of cake, right?

However, this is ultimately a setting, not the real world. In the real world, entering the atmosphere of a warship built in space is indeed difficult, and accidents can even occur. Titans still play a vital role in ground combat, and the resulting sense of disruption puzzled Baldur. But now, after learning of the existence of the Sky Surveyors for the first time, Baldur finally understood his doubts. This situation arises because the Mechanicus lacks many key technologies.

The Sky Surveyor is one of these technological creations. They are positioned as large aerospace vehicles, capable of serving as large space bombers in space battles and, when necessary, entering the atmosphere for attack and transport missions. Their role is higher than that of a Titan, but lower than that of a battleship. The Sky Surveyor is also the largest aircraft carrier that can be fully maintained and serviced within a battleship. These vehicles are larger than the Nemesis Sky Fighter and the Starhawk Bomber. (The information I've seen mentions that the Starhawk is approximately 55 meters long.)

According to information provided by the Endless Journey, during humanity's heyday, various Sky Patrollers were the fleet's primary carrier-based aircraft and the primary force behind planetary strikes. The current Nemesis void fighter and Starhawk bomber are only suitable for space combat and are unsuitable for atmospheric operations. They are considered an extremely degraded version, as the latter not only lacks atmospheric combat capabilities but also void combat capabilities. As aerospace vehicles, both the Stormbird and the later Thunderhawk are too small and weak. Under these circumstances, the Titan is the only one that can truly thrive...

Now, Balder has decided to restore the relics of the Golden Age. However, progress has been far from ideal. The efforts of the two great sages, Scott and Castin, on Abyss 8, have only allowed them to repair one of the transport-class Cormorant Sky Surveyors using spare parts stored on the Endless Journey. As for mass production? Please, without the STC, let them mobilize thousands of Mechanicus priests to hand-pick the parts one by one...

"So all we have available now is what's in your hangar?" Bader asked.

"Yes, there are some stored in the hangar. In the past, these were expensive consumables. Without the ability to replenish them, each battle means one less." The Endless Journey also felt very helpless. After all, looking at the Star Hawk and Nemesis void fighters currently used by the Empire, the Endless Journey was uncomfortable with the other side's overly simple and poor quality. Therefore, it would rather not carry any aircraft than carry these guys. Of course, from another perspective, at least now, there should still be some usable stock in the Endless Journey's stasis hangar.

"Okay, then let's speed up the reverse engineering work on various Sky Surveyor models." Bader said after thinking for a while.

While the Centurion Terminator could still be exported in small quantities, the Sky Patrol's export potential was virtually non-existent for a long time. This machine, capable of destroying warships in the sky, knocking down Titans on the ground, and conducting large-scale airdrops, was simply too useful. Furthermore, its production process was incredibly complex. It could be compared to the 21st-century Blue Star strategic bombers and strategic transport aircraft. Unless some were unearthed somewhere, the Empire's currently available Sky Patrols were essentially all in the Endless Journey's hangar.

There are actually many different types of Sky Surveyors. Reverse-engineering them all would be a massive undertaking. Asking Balder to accomplish this would be nearly impossible. Then, Balder remembered that he was, in fact, a disciple of Malcador the Sigillite. Thus, a bold plan took shape in Balder's mind.

Chapter 57 Teacher, Please Help Me 1

"You seem to have something to do today?" The Emperor turned around and asked, looking at Malcador who looked a little anxious beside him.

"Yes, my lord, yesterday, Balder sent me some technical information through the Endless Journey's psychic communication system. I feel it is very valuable, and today, he will talk to me about restoring it." said the Sigillite.

"Bring it to me and see."

A moment later, through psychic communication, the Emperor knew exactly what Balder had given him. "I didn't expect there were such things on the Endless Journey," the Emperor exclaimed in admiration.

But thinking about it, I let it go. This guy... If other factors were not considered, the Emperor admired Balder, because, in tens of thousands of years, this was the person who had gone the furthest on this path besides himself! And he walked quite steadily!

"Did he ask for anything?"

"Well, Balder expressed his hope that there could be a Forge World that could produce Sky Surveyors alone, and that these things would only be allocated to the Imperial Guard and the Sixth Legion for the time being." The Seal Holder said with some embarrassment.

He knew that for the Emperor, there were currently two special legions. One was the Dark Angels Legion, which was the earliest legion established by the Emperor and the most powerful and almighty legion in the Emperor's hands. The Emperor was generous to this legion. There were countless incomprehensible and even unimaginable creations of the Dark Ages in the secret vaults of the Dark Angels Legion.

The other legion was the Luna Wolves. The Emperor truly loved Horus, and the Skywatchers weren't some terrifying technological relic that needed to be carefully guarded. If Horus wanted it, the Emperor would probably agree. Furthermore, from the Sigillite's own perspective, spreading this weapon would be of great significance in enhancing the strength of each legion.

"You talk to him according to the plan, and I'll listen from the side." The emperor said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, my lord." The seal holder looked at the emperor, feeling a little confused. The emperor seemed to attach great importance to Balder.

A few hours later, in a secret room on the Emperor's flagship, the psychic communication began. With the support of the Emperor's psychic power, the network speed and packet loss rate of this communication were ideal.

As Balder's projection appeared before the Sigillite, the communication between the two sides began, while the Emperor hid in the shadows and maintained contact with the Sigillite.

"What do you think of my plan?" After a brief greeting, Balder went straight to the point.

"It's possible to concentrate resources for reverse hacking, and it's also possible to build a dedicated production world. However, handing this world over to the Sixth Legion for management, and starting to supply only to the Imperial Guards and the Sixth Legion, is probably not feasible. Other legions also need this kind of equipment, and you only provided samples. The share is very low." The seal holder replied.

Balder's subsequent actions surprised both the Sigillite and the Emperor. He had written with the Empire in mind, yet he had kept all these things in his own hands.

"Uh. Your Excellency, the Master of the Seal."

"Call me teacher. This is a private communication, don't take it so seriously." The seal holder corrected with a smile.

"Call me teacher? Why do I feel a little uncomfortable with this title?" Balder suppressed the strangeness in his heart, but after thinking about it, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with him now. Besides, if you want to ask for help from others, you should always have the attitude of asking for help.

"Teacher, from what I can see right now, reverse engineering the Sky Surveyor will take quite a while. This is determined by its engineering difficulty, just like some worlds can build battleships but can't produce Titans. Big things aren't necessarily more complex than small ones. Do you understand this? Also, I won't just provide samples; we'll also offer considerable technical support."

"Even in the most optimistic scenario, the time we need to replicate the Cormorant Sky Surveyor will probably be measured in years. This is assuming that the Endless Journey can provide samples and some drawings. This vehicle requires so many new parts and subsystems that we have to rebuild a production system." Bader explained, thinking silently, just like the Blue Planet in the 21st century, there are a bunch of countries that can equip Aegis, but only a few have stealth strategic bombers?

"Secondly, this aircraft is too large, much larger than the Starhawk bombers commonly used by the Imperial Fleet. As a result, the equipment in the bomber hangars of most current warships is not suitable for servicing and maintaining these warships. Even cruiser-class warships are deemed unsuitable for equipping such a large carrier-based aircraft. Do we have to completely gut and redesign the internal hangars of the aircraft-carrying warships of the rest of the Imperial Fleet just to accommodate this particular aircraft? This is obviously unrealistic."

"The last point is that even if the imitation of this vehicle is completed, the supply will not be very large. As the product provider, it is not too much for us to first fill the hangars of the large aircraft carriers in the fleet with these things and meet the needs of the Imperial Guards, right?" Bader asked.

"This..." It was the first time that the seal holder discovered that his disciple could invest for free and then make the most of the profits so confidently...

"Then the Space Wolves' aircraft carrier hangar is suitable for these planes?" said the Sigillite dissatisfiedly.

"Two flagships will definitely be no problem. In the future, the warships equipped with the Sky Patrol will generally be large battleships of the battleship class. We will redesign the new large warship hangar to accommodate the Sky Patrol's huge size and special supplies."

"I....Do you still want to monopolize the design of specialized warships?"

"Teacher, you also hope to maintain some technological advantages over the Martian forging world, right?" On the projection, Balder said to the seal holder meaningfully.

"Hiss..." For the first time, the Sigillite realized how nerve-wracking it was to discuss serious matters with his disciples. He sent out a wave of psychic energy, informing the Emperor, who was hiding nearby. Unseen by Balder, the Emperor smiled and gestured with a helpless hand.

"Sometimes, it's truly fascinating to stand aside and watch intelligent people debate." The Emperor felt strangely pleased. It seemed like watching the fun was ingrained in human nature, and the Emperor was no exception. And if his most trusted subordinate, the Seal Holder, known for his wisdom and rationality, could suffer a harmless setback, wouldn't that be quite amusing?

Balder's rhetoric was carefully crafted, taking into account both reason and the Sigillite's mentality. Logically, is it wrong to equip oneself with what one has found? Even the Mechanicus couldn't just arbitrarily demand that their subordinates' forge worlds hand over their technology? Furthermore, there were indeed issues with the compatibility of the new equipment, as well as production capacity. Balder then proposed withholding the equipment from other Legions for the time being, at least not on a large scale. This was entirely reasonable.

Chapter 58 Teacher, Please Help Me 2

In fact, at this point, Balder's demands were exorbitant, and some things could be compromised. It was just that the time for a showdown had not yet arrived.

The next step was to exploit the conflict between the Emperor and Mars. The Emperor possessed considerable research and development capabilities, the Leviathan Dreadnought being a masterpiece. However, Mars still held the greatest production capacity. If the Sigillite wished to retain the relevant technology, they would inevitably circumvent Mars. Without Mars, the greatest production capacity would be lost, and the plan to re-equip the entire Legion would be thwarted. Furthermore, if they aimed for production capacity, it would be difficult to maintain the so-called technological secrets.

Of course, this problem isn't unsolvable. After the technology is fully replicated, the Emperor might bypass Mars and collaborate with other Forge Worlds that are hostile to Mars. However, Balder had already made up his mind, and Acheron VIII was Balder's designated partner. Even if this plan failed, Balder could proceed privately, though the progress and output might be unsatisfactory.

Balder didn't seek to completely grasp the secrets of the Skywatchers, but he would do his utmost to prevent their spread to certain Legions that were bound to defect. The four KTNS Legions, the Word Bearers, and the Luna Wolves were the focus. He simply sought to slow the process. In other words, he could ensure that the Loyalists had a significant advantage in Skywatchers, along with a certain technological edge. That would be enough.

"You have a point, but I don't agree," the Sigillite said. "If only one legion possesses a frequently needed item while the others don't, that's unrealistic and will be extremely resented. Do you understand what I mean?" The Sigillite's expression was serious.

"I think..."

"Okay, I'll give you an hour to calm down, and then we'll talk." The seal holder said with an unhappy expression.

"Hehehe." Looking at the psychic communication that was suddenly closed, Balder was not panicked. He had already thought of a solution, a solution that not only the Seal Master could not refuse, but also the other legions could not say anything about it.

Balder naturally understood what it meant to be the target of public criticism. If the Centurion Terminator merely made others jealous, then the existence of the Sky Patrol series of weapons was more than just a matter of jealousy.

The Centurion Terminator is certainly good, but each Legion has its own equivalent: the less powerful regular Terminator, the larger Dreadnought, and the more advanced like Boss Pi's Hoopbot. Not as good as yours, but serviceable.

But the Sky Patrollers were different. No other legion had a counterpart; they were irreplaceable. And when you have something irreplaceable that others don't, it can easily lead to trouble.

These are different from the DA's advanced technologies. This is partly because the DA is very good at keeping their secrets, and when they use them, no one outside of them is allowed to see them. Other legions know that the DA has technology and powerful skills, but they don't know what they are. Also, many of these technologies and powerful skills are not mass-produced. Other legions can't take their unique pieces.

Balder already had an idea about this problem. Of course, the teacher was also doing this for his own good, and Balder was grateful for this. He decided to read a book first to relieve his emotions before continuing with the second half.

At this moment, in that secret little room, the Sigillite was complaining to the Emperor.

"Badur is really too young. He is too independent in doing things and likes to do things according to his own ideas without considering other people's reactions. He will suffer sooner or later. I am worried about him, my lord." The seal holder sighed and said.

"Hehehe." The Emperor chuckled. He didn't deny that what the Sigillite said was true. Balder and the "He" behind him truly loved to follow their own ideas, even at the risk of putting themselves in danger. But to say they were naive, unconcerned with others' reactions, was not the case.
