Chapter 69 - Level 46 - Orders beginning (2/2)

Transportation of the army, adaptation to unknown lands as well as learning new languages took quite some time. But what is time to an Immortal Emperor?

By September, Year 186 of the new Calendar, Planet Earth and its inhabitants became a part of the Roman Empire.

That's how significant that change was. Although there were debates, as Athena informed me, whether gifting immortality to a person or letting, specifically Caesar, live, led to such changes. Anyway, after all that, you most certainly will have a question.

'Why the heck we need all that information?'

And the answer is simple. This Empire served as the foundation for the ”Order”. As Emperor owed his immortality to the Thanatos, he happily fulfilled any wishes that guy had.

People, resources, technologies, armies and so much more were provided solely by the Roman Empire. And although, small in the beginning, Empire has grown to a whole Galaxy in a span of a few thousand years. Therefore, it is important to understand why that Universe was so important and how exactly Marcus came into the ranks of Order's Fixers Squad.

You see, serving in the Army was always an honorable and lucrative job in Rome and nothing changed even in the far future. Actually, something did change. Soldiers weren't simple humans anymore. They became genetically modified soldiers walking in the heavy power armor.

'Huh? Space Marines? What Space Marines? What do you mean I am breaking Intelectual rights? Wait, why are you calling Inquisition?! Put down that cogitator!'

*Some loud noises in the background*

'Kidding! Obviously, there is no Inquisition or Ordo Malleus in this Universe, he-he... he... he...'

*Quietly whispers 'Emperor protects'*

Compared to Astartes from Warhammer 40k Universe, these soldiers relied mostly on machines.

To make it easier for you to understand, these warriors were the Capitan America in Iron Man suit. Clear enough? I mean yeah, Cap is strong, but let's be honest, he is still a human. So, even genetically modified they remained human. Just slightly better, stronger, faster and smarter.

However, their tech covered for the majority of their weaknesses. Nanite Blood, Brain connected to Quantum Server with Implanted AI and a lot of other cool benefits.

And to the best of these warriors, an offer was made. A chance to serve something higher than an Empire spanning one Galaxy. They were offered to serve the ”Order”. I think you can guess the rest of the story.

This is a background of that Marcus guy. That also explains all the tech that he brought to this world. I mean his special teams were all wearing some fancy sci-fi armor, while his ȧssistant was an AI. That rose quite a few questions for me, back then.

As for another guy, he is also incredible. So incredible, really, that I have to take him out of the picture first, before going after Marcus or their newly found organization.

And his name is ”Tenebrae”, a.k.a. ”God of Darkness”, from the world of limitless possibilities. World of Unbound Gods.
