"The Mother Group will help us establish another layer of identity."
"Communication with the Mother Group was re-established again yesterday, which is the guarantee of our actions."
...
The holographic projections begin to flicker at high frequency, signifying Spiritual Energy disturbances during the intense debates of Inner Ring mbers.
Listening to the nurous discussions, Mirorilla felt the blood pumped out from the heart start to heat up—this was the ancient Genetic Lock of the Blood Oath Ring taking effect. When he unclasped his neck guard to reveal the dark red scar on his throat, all projections simultaneously displayed the sa mark—a Holy Artifact marking from the Mother Group at the foundation of the group.
Everyone fell silent; the Grand Tutor had already made the final decision.
"In three hours, when the orbital surveillance fleet is changing guards, there is a 47-second gap." Mirorilla brings up the star map, the coordinates of Gamma VII are as eye-catching as a drop of blood, "Fabricate a Subspace fluctuation alert, we’ll capitalize on the chaos to activate the ’Wing of Ashes’ Warship hidden behind the satellite. Casim, inject loyalty serum to all Outer Layer Brothers; Casim, insert a Tier 3 Chaos contamination report in the Ho Planet Database; Uther... prepare to activate the Sanctum Self-destruct Procedure."
The projection of Battle Group Pharmacist Oren suddenly twists, "Those Outer Layer Brothers... after all..."
"They wear the armor of Death Angels, yet never know the weight of secrets." Mirorilla places his palm on the Book of Truth in the Confession Room, the spikes of the bronze cover pierce into flesh, "When the flas of the Tribunal cleanse this place, the surviving Outer Layer Brothers will be reborn—as a Battle Group truly loyal to the Alliance."
Uther suddenly raises a data board of new Alliance blood: "But that Battle Monk nad Alvin, he has already..."
"So you will accidentally leak the escape plan to him." Mirorilla wipes away the bloodstains from his palm, engraving the final instructions onto the stone table, "When the Outer Layer Brothers bravely stop our defection, when the Ho Planet Fortress turns to ash in ’crossfire’, Gu Hang will be pleased with another loyal hound. And we will vanish into darkness like our ancestors, continuing the eternal hunt."
The Battle Group Leader unsheathes the Sword of Redemption, slashing his palm, twelve projections simultaneously perform the sa action, "Eternal Hunt!"
As the bell of the Confession Room rings the thirty-seventh ti, the orbital fleet suddenly transmits a piercing alarm.
...
Alvin Renak’s retinal projection is bleeding as he gazes at the data stream flickering in the tactical monocle—collected anomalies by the ’Pure Fire Brotherhood’ he secretly established three months ago.
He is an Alliance person, one of the earliest warriors to join the Oath of Rembrance Battle Group.
After joining the group, he quickly showcased excellent performance and swiftly ascended internally; now he is already the flag officer of the third cohort. Traditionally, if his cohort leader encounters any mishap, he would be the closest candidate to succeed as the third cohort leader.
For a newcor who joined the group less than five years ago, this promotion speed is astonishingly rapid. Anyone would notice that there is no internal exclusion against new Alliance blood within the Oath of Rembrance.
Inside the battle group, everyone seems very polite. The cohort leader respects him, the warriors under his command trust him, executing his combat directives thoroughly.
In conclusion, it seems everything is normal.
However, he himself feels otherwise.
The atmosphere within the battle group is quite estranged. Relationships between everyone appear polite but distant.
Initially, he thought this was a kind of battle group culture, and he actively integrated, maintaining solitude.
But soon, he could no longer bear it.
It was like an instinct from deep within his genes that made him want to rally so warriors to dispel the unease in his heart.
And who could he choose?
Of course, like him, the newcors from the Alliance blood.
He secretly established a society within the battle group.
This is the origin of the ’Pure Fire Brotherhood’.
At first, he was quite apprehensive about such behavior, always feeling whether he had done sothing not entirely loyal, even once considering confessing to the Battle Group Priest.
Of course, ultimately, he did not proceed. After hesitating repeatedly, he chose to remain silent. Until a self-destructing private letter from Gu Hang, through the ’Interstellar Soldier Coordinated Combat Committee’ under the ’Dark Side Control Committee’, fell into his hands, and the sense of conflict in his heart was instantly alleviated.
In the letter, Gu Hang expressed so concerns to him about the internal issues of the Oath of Rembrance Battle Group, believing that there are so unknown problems and hidden dangers within the group that might lead the group towards its end and affect the fate of the Alliance and human society. Based on this, Gu Hang advised Alvin to thoroughly investigate all unusual aspects within the group and report as much as possible. Only through this can the purity of the group be ensured, preventing it from straying further down the path of no return.
Hearing this, Alvin Renak completely abandoned his concerns.
Actually, there weren’t much concerns to begin with.
He probably just needed a reason to convince himself.
He joyfully develops his Pure Fire Brotherhood internally within the Oath of Rembrance, to the extent that the total number of mbers within the Brotherhood has already reached 126.
This constitutes almost half of the new Alliance blood within the battle group.
The remaining who have not been brought in are a group needing testing. They must be proven able to keep the secret of the society through gradual exposure before they can be inducted.
The mission of the whole society is to investigate secrets hidden within the battle group and to fight for the Alliance and humanity as a species.
Recently, however, Alvin has made so new discoveries.
It seems so secret societies have also ford among those over a hundred new Alliance blood who were not introduced to the society, though their scale is generally not substantial; further, he even found small secret societies forming within the Pure Fire Brotherhood.
His mindset is quite calm.
Pretty normal, everyone has their own little secrets, it’s tolerable.
He himself has joined two.
As long as under this larger society of the Pure Fire Brotherhood, everyone’s attitudes and goals can remain aligned, it will be fine.
He remains fairly confident in this; the Brotherhood is still quite ’united’ internally.
And in terms of investigations into the secrets within the battle group, they have gradually achieved so results.
The first was investigating the battle group’s Genetic Seeds storage, after considerable effort, they finally made so breakthroughs: they discovered the group kept so Genetic Seeds, though it is inherently wrong to do so. If the group were truly loyal, they should have submitted all Genetic Seeds without retaining any.
He has already managed to pass this intelligence back to soone in the Interstellar Warrior Managent Association dedicated to interfacing with him.
A new directive was returned from the Alliance Central. Firstly, they praised the intelligence, acknowledging it as significant.
Additionally, they requested for a temporary standstill.
Just this point isn’t enough to nail the Oath of Rembrance Battle Group, it’s best to find so new, decisively important evidence.
The Brotherhood began scouring past secret mission records within the battle group, hoping to unearth so leads.
This step, however, is proving extrely difficult. Because during the Dark Side Expedition, they began frequently undertaking combat tasks. Alvin also noticed that the casualty rate among all new Alliance blood, including the Brotherhood mbers, during combat missions, is significantly higher than the average casualty rate among the rest of the battle group.
This made him realize that there are indeed many secrets within the battle group. No matter how reasonable those combat directives may seem, the ultimate results are such—they are the ones being set up.
This raises a greater sense of urgency within Alvin, prompting him to take so ’minor actions’ on several senior mbers within the battle group to conveniently track them.
Within the Brotherhood, a combat brother nad Shaga, who possesses exceptional Spiritual Energy talent but concealed it upon entering, thus not joining the group’s Think Tank, can help achieve this.
Just now, Shaga suddenly approached him, notifying him of an urgent matter: there’s been abrupt movent among the group’s top brass. They’ve gathered peculiarly and boarded spacecraft heading towards the dark side of Luku Star’s primary satellite without any command from the Alliance Military.
Just as he churned with suspicion over this, a command from his cohort leader ca, instructing him to lead his squad,
