Chapter 53: The Strange Zalewski (Happy New Year's Eve)

Inside the palace, Ninglu spread his palms and said to Maria Kurnikova.

"Your performance is good; this is the power I bestow upon you."

Maria took the purple potion from the large hand and, without hesitation, tilted her head back and drank it.

She and the other young girls had always been raised as Assassins, instilled with absolute loyalty to the family.

After Yelena offered them to Ninglu, the object of their loyalty became the Primarch.

Having witnessed the Primarch's god-like combat prowess time and again, she had completely submitted to Ninglu.

Half a standard hour later, the "Assassin" mastered the method of Meditation under Ninglu's guidance, gathering her own power.

Maria knelt on one knee, her hand resting on her chest.

"Thank you for your grace, my Lord. I will certainly use the power you have bestowed upon me to bring Death to your enemies."

Ninglu nodded: "I have a mission for you now; this is also a test for Tesvisna and Dementieva."

The two girls' abilities and potential were significantly inferior to Maria's, and Ninglu would decide whether to cultivate them into Beyonders based on their performance.

"Please, give your orders."

Ninglu's gaze was profound; he looked outside through the palace glass, his tone deep.

"You are to infiltrate the various Hive Cities and assassinate key figures. The targets are still to be chosen by you according to the situation. This time, I hope to see even more excellent battle results."

"As you wish, I will certainly present the head of the false king to you."

Maria understood Ninglu's meaning, and the "Assassin" made her vow.

Ninglu withdrew his gaze and looked at the departing Maria; the better the battle results the Assassins achieved, the smoother the path to unification would be, and the more strength the new Vostonia would preserve.

Ninglu then sent a message to Jorginho to assemble the troops.

He searched the palace, and the treasury of King Kapusiteka, which possessed the largest Hive City in Vostonia, did not disappoint him.

He found a total of twenty-nine types, amounting to fifty-four pieces of Potion Material.

In addition to gathering another portion of "Warrior" Potion, he found ten horns of Crown Pegasus among the raw materials King Kapusiteka used to make life-extension potions.

This type of horn is shaped like a crown and is an excellent material for making life-extension potions, as well as the main material for the "Moon" pathway Sequence 9 "Apothecary".

After Ninglu sent all the Potion Materials back to the "Kingdom of Disorder", he returned to the real world.

He walked out of the Hive Tower, and the waiting Jorginho immediately came before him.

After a crash course in Wosuotuniya Low Gothic on the ship, he was already able to listen and speak fluently, and could read and write some text.

"My King, I have reorganized the scattered royal private army and security forces; after screening and integration, there are a total of one thousand five hundred and three people."

"From now on, you are the Leader of the Vostonia Sixth Regiment. Assemble your troops and set out with me to Kemerovo Hive City."

"Understood."

Jorginho replied excitedly; in a short time, he had been promoted from a common Sea Guard to a platoon leader, and now he was even serving as a Leader.

Although his regiment was still a thousand men short of full strength, it was only a matter of time.

Ninglu then gave an order to Woyiqiehe behind him, "Contact Thierry and order him to recruit in Lukebo, with no limit on numbers."

The "Knower" hurriedly acknowledged the order, took out his communicator, and contacted the Leader of the Vostonia Second Regiment.

At the same moment, in the Lower Hive of Szczecin Hive City.

Mikhailovsky, who was temporarily serving as a Second Company Captain, walked up to Bukayo, his brown pupils filled with awe as he looked at the Leader.

"Lord Leader, the recruitment is complete, and everyone has been equipped with the fine weapons you distributed."

"Assemble and depart immediately. Our target is Naliyangmaer Hive City, where the Altar number thirty-three is located."

Bukayo had already received the message relayed by Luoersiliefu that Howard had suppressed the mutant riot and killed the heretical believers; he realized that this was the time of formal turmoil in Vostonia, and also an opportunity for the newly formed Third Regiment to make a name for itself.

Luoersiliefu was too conservative; after suppressing the small-scale mutant riots in Mazov and Szczecin, he only wanted to hold the two Hive Cities firmly.

Bukayo would not miss the opportunity; he decided to set his target on Naryan-Mar, the most remote and isolated place in Vostonia.

Ninglu led the Sixth Regiment and arrived at Kemerovo Hive City during the Yekai Shift; he encountered a routed noble army at the Ukinsk Dome in the Lower Hive.

A brown-haired noble wearing a red robe and rimless gold-rimmed glasses walked up to the giant.

"I am Count Zalewski Viteska; please state your identities."

Luoxiji stepped forward and introduced them.

"This is King Ninglu. Sage Kivior-2 has already agreed to him becoming the sole King of Vostonia. Please pay homage to the King."

"King Ninglu, Zalewski Viteska offers his loyalty to you. I will become your faithful servant."

"I accept your allegiance."

Ninglu said in a deep voice, his pitch-black pupils staring fixedly at Zalewski; the noble before him gave him a strange feeling.

In his Warp Insight, the noble's emotions were initially the fear of having survived a disaster, and when he heard Luoxiji's words, he also had appropriate reactions such as Shock and contemplation.

But the Primarch's intuition felt that Zalewski was somewhat strange.

【My intuition cannot be wrong; there is some secret about this Zalewski.】

Ninglu kept this in mind without showing it; he led his team onto the train and headed toward the Upper Hive.

The orbital train was much slower than the Mag-trans; it took four standard hours for the team to reach the Upper Hive.

【After unifying Vostonia, I should install Mag-trans in all Hive Cities and on future flagships; this will significantly increase transport efficiency.】

Ninglu led his team, and as soon as they stepped into the Upper Hive, they discovered that it had already fallen into madness.

On the streets, mutants were holding weapons, breaking into shops, and killing every Hive citizen they saw.

Their mouths were stuffed with food mixed with blood, and they let out frantic laughter.

"Attack!"

After Ninglu issued the order, he was the first to charge.

He was like a galloping cavalryman, charging into the crowd of mutants and killing his way in and out several times before his subordinates could keep up.

Seeing that Jorginho was commanding well, Ninglu turned his attention to the private army of the Viteska family.

He noticed that everyone was wearing ballistic armor, holding precision-manufactured laser guns, Chainswords, and other weapons in their hands.

Wearing rimless glasses, Zalewski looked refined and gentle on the outside, but his combat style was exceptionally violent.

Holding a shield in his left arm, he crashed directly into the crowd of mutants.

Surrounded, he did not panic at all, letting the mutants' weapons strike his Precision Power Armor while he focused solely on swinging his Power Sword to slaughter the enemies.

Zalewski was advancing even faster than the Sixth Regiment, looking even more hardworking and proactive than Jorginho.

Ninglu shifted his attention away from him and looked ahead.

Accompanied by a shrill bird cry, a creature covered in colorful feathers and possessing a sharp, piercing beak flew through the air.
