Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 555 556.【Inner Steel】

Early the next morning, Dean Margarita, still in her pajamas, trotted all the way to her office under the astonished gazes of many students.

The office door opened with a bang, and she even gasped because she ran so fast.

The delicate and drapey silk pajamas were rising and falling due to her heavy breathing.

And when Margarita lifted up a strand of blond hair that fell to her eyes, she looked into the office.

Lan En, who was sitting on a large chair behind his desk, was categorizing and putting away the last document.

The neatly placed piles of documents on the table almost made Margarita think that her teacher had flown back through the long-distance portal last night.

Shaking her head hard, Margarita walked toward the desk anxiously.

"Where is the A-45-e file? That is a reply to Redania's spy chief, Dijkstra. It will be sent out soon. This guy is cunning and cunning. He will not let go of anyone who can bring the academy in. A chance of war!”

"That fat pig will probably be giving us eye drops next to King Vizmir even if it's a little later in the evening when we receive the reply!"

The panicked dean started rummaging through the pile of documents.

But seeing that the documents he had organized were about to be messed up, Lan En's mouth twitched, and then he held down Margarita's hand without leaving a trace.

With the sorceress's confused expression, he pulled out a piece of paper from a pile of completely indistinguishable documents without even looking at it, and handed it to her.

"A-45-e file." Margarita took it blankly, while Lan En's expression was calm and natural.

"In my reply, I refuted the three fallacies he put forward in his letter to us, as well as the two accusations he made, and reiterated that Arethusa will not act rashly for the time being. Then I emphasized the Talents and Skills Association, The Supreme Council of Warlocks has the management authority over the warlock community. And Arethusa’s loyalty to the decisions made by the two councils.”

The Association of Talents and Skills, also known as the 'Wizards' Council', and the Supreme Council of Warlocks are the two major management organizations established by the Warlock Brotherhood to manage the Warlock community.

Tissaya is now a member of the Wizarding Council and represents the seat of Arethusa.

At that time, in order to ensure the prestige of these two management organizations, the Warlock Brotherhood killed almost all the warlocks who were unwilling to join.

Among them was even [Pure White] Rafad, who held the highest power in Temeria at the time.

The demon hunter spoke unhurriedly and with almost impeccable diplomatic rhetoric. This familiarity even made Margarita, who had a deep family background, find no problems.

The sorceress blinked and looked at Lan En, who was sitting in a chair and had spent the whole night processing all the official documents, and didn't seem to feel any headache or fatigue at all.

This sorceress with extraordinary talents in conjuration and magic suddenly felt that she was indeed not very smart in management?

After confirming that all the work she had left behind had been done neatly, Margarita looked at Lan En as if she were looking at her teacher!

Lan En was very familiar with this look. This woman would look like this when she was being scolded by Tisaya.

"Well, do you have a tendency to have a teacher-student relationship?"

Lan En, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly said something.

"Actually, it's not that I can't accept role-playing."

Margarita's face turned red for a rare moment, and then she returned to the attitude of a big sister who had "been seen before, and is unfazed by favors and humiliations".

"Don't think so pretty, young man. I can play when I want to. But..."

After finishing speaking, Margarita patted the table full of various documents, leaned forward and kissed the side of Lan En's face.

"Thank you, dear. I almost thought I was going to sleep to death yesterday."

"It's okay." Lan En stood up from the large chair. "There are a lot of documents processed this time, which should be enough for you to easily return to Tissaya and return to the academy."

Looking at the demon hunter standing in front of her like a hill, Margarita couldn't help but cover her mouth.

"I was so groggy yesterday that I didn't notice. Have you grown so much again?"

"Don't worry." Lan En immediately understood Margarita's subtext and comforted her. "This is the limit. My bones have developed."

If we look at ordinary space warriors, their height after bone strengthening is basically their final state.

But if raw casting technology is added.

Lan En did not mention this to Margarita.

After all, the three surgical procedures required for Primaris to strengthen the organs seem to be very high-tech.

For example, [Tendin Coil] is also called [Inner Steel].

It allows tendons to be strengthened with mechanical cables, allowing them to contract with astonishing force and amplify their own strength while adding another layer of internal defense to the body.

The punch power of ordinary space warriors is about five tons, but these battle-experienced superhuman warriors can use their skills and equipment to inflict damage that far exceeds the panel data.

The basic strength of the Primaris Space Marines is significantly stronger than their predecessors due to the existence of [Tendon Coil], basically reaching the ten-ton level.

The original appearance of this thing in Lan En's memory was actually a bunch of metal wires like plant roots.

This kind of metal wire will be implanted into the chest cavity by prying open the shutter-like ribs of the Space Marines during the operation, and then grow on its own to the tendons of the muscles throughout the body.

Essentially a high-tech metal machine with a self-replicating program.

This is a surgical organ that Lan En, who can only cultivate biological tissue at present, cannot obtain.

"Get some rest these days, Rita."

Lan En emphasized to Margarita again.

"You have to keep your spirits up. I think the Warlock Brotherhood will soon take a stand on this war. The kings will not let go of such a huge force of Warlocks and just let them watch from outside the battlefield."

"You're right." Margarita obviously forced a smile when discussing this topic.

"I just want to protect these apprentices who have not yet graduated. At least they should not go to the battlefield."

"I hope so." Lan En didn't say much, just comforted in a low voice.

But in fact, he has a very clear concept in his heart: whoever can bear more losses in the war will be more likely to win the war.

The simple truth is that the number of people who can mobilize all the men to kill is definitely greater than the number of people who can only mobilize half of them.

And when the war intensifies, this disaster created by humans will, to a large extent, no longer be controlled by humans themselves.

Lan En and Margarita fell into silence in the office for a moment.

With the beginning of the war, the atmosphere of malice and solemnity, whether it is willing or not, has penetrated into every corner of society like mercury out of the container.

Then, news came from outside the office. It was said that Siloden Giancardi was visiting and that he had to talk to the shareholders about the Valyrian Steel Chamber of Commerce.
