Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 1434: Chapter 813

Oath of Remembrance has never been recognized by the system, which really intrigued Gu Hang and he paid quite a lot of attention to this matter for a long period of time.

Because it’s very strange.

Their current state is completely consistent with the other two battle groups, namely the Luminary and the Ravagers, and even more compliant. When they’re told to fight, they fight; when asked to surrender their seeds, they comply. When new recruits are inserted into their battle groups, they fully accept them.

The system recognized those two battle groups, and even among the thirteen newly reclaimed groups, there are far more unruly groups than the Oath of Remembrance, yet the system recognized them. Why then does the system refuse to recognize the Oath of Remembrance?

Gu Hang truly couldn’t understand it and really wanted to figure it out.

In analyzing the differences between this battle group and the others, Gu Hang did indeed find one: They originated from the Death Angel Battle Group.

Besides the Oath of Remembrance, among the remaining 44 battle groups of the Alliance, none of the genetic seeds come from the Death Angel Battle Group.

Is it due to something unique about the Death Angel Battle Group?

Do they have something special?

Is there a problem with the genetic seeds?

Gu Hang didn’t think so.

The genetic seeds handed over by the Oath of Remembrance were thoroughly analyzed by the Alliance’s laboratories, and nothing unusual was found.

Historically, there has been no record of any rebellion by the Death Angel Battle Group or corruption by Chaos, as if the Death Angel Battle Group was the most loyal of all.

Reflecting on this, Gu Hang found it quite surprising — no matter which founding group, among their sub-groups, there have been records of rebellious battle groups.

That certainly seems inevitable.

With such a long history and such a large base, how could there not be records of betrayal?

The genetic seeds of various founding battle groups might differ in aspects such as preferred abilities or the traits of their Interstellar Warriors, including resistance to corruption. Some founding groups’ lineage is more susceptible to corruption, while others are more resistant.

However, regardless of any differences in genetic seeds, they would not differ to such an extent that none of the Death Angel’s sub-groups have betrayed.

Instead of accepting this, it seems more plausible that all related records have been deleted or concealed.

The latter seems more realistic.

If this speculation were true, then this situation becomes quite intriguing.

Why would the Death Angels do this?

Other founding groups also have records of sub-group betrayals. The Empire as a whole can accept and understand such occurrences, which have nothing to do with the founding group itself.

So why does only the Death Angel seem so concerned about removing all betrayal records?

To go further, if these efforts to clear records were all done by the Death Angel, how did they manage it?

To achieve such a goal is not easy in itself.

“It seems the Death Angels have quite a few little secrets… I will uncover your secrets eventually!”

…

Gu Hang really wanted to target the Oath of Remembrance. Under his instruction, the Alliance’s Control Committee indeed tried to do so.

However, this posed some difficulty.

All the straightforward methods couldn’t be used against them.

The main factor was that the Oath of Remembrance was truly honest and obedient.

What other means could there be to cause them trouble?

There were methods, and many of them.

Given the current state of the Alliance, there are indeed many ways to completely destabilize a group officially already part of the Dark Side Expedition.

But such methods weren’t much help in uncovering their internal secrets.

Thus, at the outset, Gu Hang attempted some conventional means.

For instance, didn’t the Oath of Remembrance obediently hand over their seeds? There were 176 in total, all of which were cultivated by the Alliance into new recruits and returned to the Oath of Remembrance.

This was as it should be. The Alliance took seeds from various battle groups, stating it was to better replenish their new recruits.

Although not recognized by the system, the Alliance didn’t rely on the system’s battle group interface to cultivate new recruits. The Alliance nurtured young lads into T1-level elite soldiers before performing genetic seed implantation surgery.

The success rate of the surgery significantly increased, exceeding 90%, due to the excellent aptitude and current qualities of the young recruits.

This method is the Alliance’s strongest avenue for cultivating new blood for Interstellar Warriors with high success.

In addition, the Alliance also has corresponding training methods for new Interstellar Warriors, quickly elevating their level to that of a veteran or higher, thus allowing these new recruits to rapidly excel within the battle group, rise to high positions, and ultimately complete the ’blood replacement’ of the entire battle group.

However, after implementing this method once, over a hundred new recruits entered the Oath of Remembrance. Within the Oath of Remembrance battle group, there wasn’t any special discrimination or exclusion against these new recruits. Those performing well were promoted as they deserved, and they weren’t denied authority within the battle group just because they came from the Alliance.

Yet, despite this, the whole battle group still didn’t enter Gu Hang’s system recognition.

Among those new recruits, many frequently relayed intelligence and information about the Oath of Remembrance battle group back to the Alliance’s headquarters, stating that everything was normal.

This left people even more puzzled.

Gu Hang became even more curious.

He had to figure this out. This not only related to the issue of the 2000 Interstellar Warrior slots, but he also had an intuition that this matter was quite unusual.

He began frequently requesting the deployment of the Oath of Remembrance battle group to participate in the Dark Side Expedition campaigns.

In some tough battles, they could be sent up.

Oath of Remembrance would fight when called upon, and nobody could say they didn’t fight hard.

The battle group frequently suffered substantial casualties.

But intriguingly, the high casualties were always among Alliance new recruits. The death rate of the new blood sent by the Alliance was over five times higher than that of the veterans from the Oath of Remembrance!

This figure was quite exaggerated.

To say it’s because new recruits are inexperienced and prone to dying on the battlefield would be reasonable; but the recruits Gu Hang had taken care of weren’t weak. They were at least on par with veterans, with a significant portion classified as Exemplar warriors. The veterans of the Oath of Remembrance were at just this level, and quite a few didn’t even reach that standard.

So why was the casualty rate among Alliance people so high?

Another point was that the number of genetic seeds subsequently handed over by the Oath of Remembrance to the Alliance didn’t match their death toll.

According to their explanation, it was because a significant portion of the seeds couldn’t be recovered from the chaotic battlefield in time.

This too was a normal situation. It wasn’t possible to recover every single body. Those they successfully recovered were all submitted without any issue.

But Gu Hang still felt something was not right.
