“No problem, leave it to me,” Gu Hang assured Commander Matins, thumping his chest confidently, “Within Revival City… no, even further away—you can have whatever or whoever you want within the entire bounds of Rage Owl Star. Just let me know, and I’ll see to it they’re delivered to you.”

It was only two hundred youths, and Gu Hang was more than accommodating.

Consider it as the Phoenix Gang’s own contribution for waging war.

As per the tradition of the war band, they would train these two hundred young men rigorously and after a period of training, select the most outstanding lucky chap under nineteen to undergo the genetic seed implantation surgery.

The rest would continue to stay in the training camp; those who surpassed nineteen without being selected weren’t released, but instead transitioned to auxiliary personnel for the war band. The treatment and designation for these individuals varied among different war bands, but according to Phoenix traditions, they would be called “down”, accompanying the star warriors in battle. Their learned skills in power armor, grenade rifles, chainsaw swords maintenance, and the tactical literacy fostered in the training camp would not go to waste.

However, Matins’s face was always tinged with melancholy.

This matter caused him great anxiety.

If the seed implantation was successful, that would of course be wonderful. The war band would have fresh blood, and this new blood would produce a new genetic seed five years later—a new cycle of renewal. And if successful again, another would come after five years…

But, if it failed… then there would be only six old soldiers left with the existing Phoenix Seeds in the entire universe.

Matins couldn’t afford to take this lightly.

“I hope everything goes smoothly,” he said to Gu Hang. “The war band… we really can’t afford another failure. I hope that when the time comes, you could help us out again by arranging for some specialized equipment for the implantation surgery. Although we can perform it now, Priest Rizzo isn’t a professional pharmacist. High-quality equipment would increase the likelihood of success.”

“I’m willing to help you guys out, but it depends on whether the next interstellar merchants arriving at Rage Owl Star carry similar goods. If they do, I’ll secure them for you,” Gu Hang replied.

“Thank you very much.”

“It’s what I should do, as I promised to support the rebuilding of your war band.”

After brief exchanges following the funeral, Gu Hang took his leave.

Before he left, he noticed a bald warrior approaching Matins. That person’s gaze lingered on him until he boarded the helicopter and flew far away.

…

After attending the funeral at the monastery of the star warriors, Gu Hang went to visit the battle nuns as well.

They hadn’t held any funeral or mourning, simply preserving the bodies of the two sisters carefully.

The headquarters of the Sainte-Lys Nun Association were on Korolya III in the Tianma Star Sector. On their journey back, they would take the bodies of the sisters with them, and a funeral would be held at the chapel of the headquarters.

As the Planetary Governor, Gu Hang expressed gratitude and condolences to the Mother Superior, and through the subsequent conversation, understood roughly what they planned to do next.

With two sisters gone, Georgette certainly wouldn’t let it rest.

She and her sisters intended to doggedly pursue the Primordial Wrath Owl Sect’s trail.

Gu Hang expressed some worries. Judging from earlier events, those cult members should not be underestimated. At Cui Kao’s level, they were sufficiently menacing to threaten the safety of the Mother Superior. Especially since they would move on to search for the cult’s stronghold after concluding their investigation of the cult in Revival City—exposing them to even greater dangers, and Gu Hang might not always be able to provide support in time.

Nevertheless, Georgette herself remained optimistic about it.

According to some intelligence previously obtained, Cui Kao holds a very high status within the entire Primordial Wrath Owl Sect. The highest power structure of the entire sect is the so-called Grand Priest Council. There are only six people who are named High Priests, and even fewer—just two— can be crowned with the title “Primal”.

One had already died in Revival City, leaving only the other who was not invincible.

In fact, if it were a fair fight, Georgette didn’t think that a spiritual energy practitioner of Cui Kao’s level was her match. The reason why the previous battle was so fierce was mainly because Cui Kao was fighting on his home ground.

That wind farm was essentially a ritual site, where they had been preparing for more than a year. Including that disgusting wind wall and the incarnation of the Rage Owl that manifested, were all products of the ritual site.

If it were just Cui Kao himself, Georgette believed that he wouldn’t last more than three strikes against her.

“The blood debt of my sisters, I want these cultists to pay back a hundredfold!”

“It should be a thousandfold, ten thousandfold,” Gu Hang echoed.

Hearing this, Georgette was quite satisfied.

Her face stern, she said to Gu Hang, “Your Excellency the Governor, in the name of the State Religion Holy Cultivation Association and the Sainte-Lys Nun Association, I formally request your assistance. I need you and your forces to do everything in your power to help us search for cultists, eradicate them, and provide necessary support!”

Having said that, she took out a somewhat yellowed piece of paper.

Gu Hang took it, glanced over it, and saw the content was roughly similar to what Georgette had just said, only the wording was more formal and written in official language.

This was an official request for cooperation, signed at the bottom right with Georgette’s name, her position within the state religion, and sealed with wax.

Gu Hang’s expression also grew serious, “I accept your request. I will provide you with the help you need. I will appoint a liaison officer. Tadeusz Political Commissar will be responsible for the coordination. He will be one of the military commanders under my command. As soon as you need assistance, contact him directly and I’ll authorize him to provide you with the supplies, investigative help, and military attack support you require.”

“Thank you, Your Excellency the Governor. I have already sent a request to the headquarters of the Sisterhood; after a month, another squad of battle nuns will come to support us, and we will completely eradicate those cultists!”

“It is I who should thank you.”

…

Truth be told, Gu Hang was slightly surprised by Georgette’s decision.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

He had thought that these nuns would return to their starship after the battle.

But the cult crisis that erupted in Revival City was bigger than imagined, and it was the battle nuns’ inescapable responsibility to eradicate the cult members.

The loss of two battle sisters was also a significant shock, igniting a raging fire of vengeance in Georgette, determined to fight the Primordial Wrath Owl Sect to the end.

Gu Hang certainly supported this decision.

Those cultists were also his targets for a relentless crackdown, as both sides had already become irreconcilable enemies. Now, with the help of a team of professionals adept at countering heretics, Gu Hang couldn’t be more welcoming.

As for the support she was seeking?

Give! Give it all!

As long as it would turn the cultists’ ashes to dust, he would provide whatever was needed!
