Man in warhammer, war with rust

Chapter 58, Ether

The Tau Empire has four main castes, one for each main element.The Tus were builders and technicians, the army consisted of the Huo, the Qi were the pilots and explorers, and the Shui were the administrators, diplomats and merchants.

These castes, in turn, are ruled by the mysterious fifth caste ether.These Majestics are serene masters of strategy and politics, inspiring the Tau to incredible achievements on the battlefield with their charisma and uplifting words.

Within Tau society, the Aethers formed ruling clans, born to guide their brethren on their destiny.

The Aethers played the roles of rulers and clerics in the Empire, and obedience to them was a secret in the mysterious Tau society.

When important decisions are at stake, a wise aether will take advice from senior members of other clans, though the final decision rests with himself.

The ethers act as the glue that guides the unity and cooperation of various clans to serve the better, and achieve their own value in it.

As an etheric one must be the perfect leader and motivator: pushing the earth clan to make more practical innovations, setting negotiating goals and directions for the water clan, setting sailing boundaries for the air clan's large fleet, and directing the occasional attack The overzealous Fire Clan.

However, in Yang Chen's view, these fifth kinds of sex are very questionable.

The Tau are a short-lived race.Its accelerated metabolism and rapid evolution and progress make it generally positive, but for some reason the ethers live much longer than their mates.

The simplest answer should be that the Tau devote their medical research to ensuring that these gifted men provide their unparalleled guidance for as long as possible.

On the other hand, while the absurd longevity of the Supreme Tai'an 'Vana has become part of his legend in the novel, the fact is that he is long dead, replaced by a hard light hologram and an advanced personality AI.

If they can't even tell the truth, what are they hiding?
The Aether have an absolute monopoly on the truth of the Tau Empire, which allows them to orchestrate massive propaganda campaigns through advanced communications technology.The best media are a powerful tool in their arsenal, but will they reveal the full truth.

Biologists of the Human Federation have proposed several ways in which the ether exercises control, ranging from the popular covert mind control to pheromone manipulation.

Whether the speculation is true or not, their influence over their empire is unreal.Even the authority of Ether in the Tau race can sometimes be compared to Yang Chen's prestige in the Human Federation.

Moreover, the ether control method is also quite mysterious, not only the other auxiliary troops and human beings that effectively join the Tau Empire will also be affected, but also it is clearly not psionic (and some ethers do not know what this ability is, but GW should won't go back to this setting.)
Although Yang Chen sees the emperor in all kinds of strange ways, I don't know where this guy came from, what purpose does he have, why did he create a mechanic school, etc.

Yang Chen felt that what was more worth thinking about was the ability of ether on the desktop - the power of elements.

Although Yang Chen knew very well about GW's urination, the desktop belonged to the desktop, the novel belonged to the novel, and the game settings belonged to the game.

But this thing is also a more important clue.

It's obviously something of a company, but the settings are all divided into three types, which is a rare occurrence in a hundred years.

However, when he was preparing to study, the ether was sent by himself.

Yang Chen looked blankly at the ether who was kowtowing in front of the Heroic Soul Stele, and gave the judge standing next to him a look.

It was clear that the judge immediately understood, and surrounded the Tau Ether with five psionic warriors, and looked at the other party and kowtowed coldly.

After waiting for Ether to apologize for the crimes committed by his own race, he sent the other party to the laboratory of the Human Federation.

The ether also seemed to have noticed that something was wrong, and immediately reached out and touched the blade of honor next to him, and at the same time, a little bit of spiritual energy began to splash out of his body.

"boom!"

But before the ether could resist, Yang Chen threw a psionic lightning at him, and instantly suppressed the opponent to the ground.

"Wait, you are violating..."

"Crack it."

Before the ether had finished speaking, the judge on the side walked up and took off the other's chin.

"Heh, let's talk about these words alive from the laboratory." Yang Chen waved his hand at will, and the spiritual energy that flew out flew back again. "If you can live."

Without looking at the ether that had been dragged into the laboratory, Yang Chen walked directly back to his mansion.

The Human Federation still has a bunch of things to deal with.

One of the most important is the replacement of the equipment of the mortal auxiliary army.

Because just yesterday, with the help of supercomputers and top scholars from all walks of life in the Human Federation, the Human Federation finally managed to build a production line that could produce Necrons Gauss rifles.

Although it is a copycat version.

And also completed the mass production of electromagnetic shields.All we have to do now is to select a batch of elites from the helpers and equip them with Gauss rifles and electromagnetic shields.

Yang Chen believes that these are veterans of a hundred battles who were killed from the battlefield, and they are equipped with electromagnetic shields that can withstand a single blast and Gauss rifles that can effectively kill Space Marines.

It will definitely become the mainstay of the Mortal Auxiliary Army, and it is not impossible to even beat the record of the Sun Auxiliary Army.

As for the installation of the Gauss rifle in the whole army, there is no need to think about it. The cost of this thing is too high. Even the rich and powerful Human Federation is only enough to install one-sixth of the army.
