Chapter 47 02.0047: "The Emperor's Pure White Daughter"
[Battle Sister?]
"Sir, are you hurt?" A clear and holy female voice came from under the strong light.
The scent of roses and lilies wafts towards you, refreshing and soothing.
Horatio looked up and saw a tall woman in a black robe and leather jacket, covered with silver force feedback nun power armor, with a layer of gold trim on the edge of the armor.
In stark contrast to the female soldiers of the Astra Militarum who often use bras and leggings to cover their female body features, the armor of the Sisters of Battle reserves space for their protruding parts.
The two majestic "nests" instantly attracted Horatio's full attention.
The sleek suit of power armor perfectly accentuated the nun's features.
The iconic holy hood of the medical sister was worn on her head, and underneath it was thick, smooth short black hair.
It was completely different from the stereotype of 'all combat nuns have white hair' that he had seen in the atlas.
The short black hair exudes a noble and beautiful luster.
She looked to be in her early twenties, and her fair, mature face showed the gentleness, intelligence, and otherworldly holiness that were unique to women.
There is a perfect beauty mole on the right side of the nun's chin, which adds a bit of charm to her holy and flawless face, which is the finishing touch, making Horatio think of Type 2B in "NieR: Automata".
Well, a black-haired type 2 B.
"Sir? Are you okay?" the medical sister asked with concern.
"I'm fine. Over there, there's a seriously injured person in that car." Horatio pointed to the van that was delivering the bread.
"Okay." The unknown medical nun picked up the professional medical rescue box and ran to the van, with Horatio following closely behind.
"Where are you injured?" The nun was anxiously looking for the injured. Behind her, a medical servo skull was suspended in the air, scanning everyone's body and transmitting the data to the data pad on the medical nun's arm.
“God above! She is the daughter of the God. Please save her quickly, wuwuwu…”
When the woman saw the medical nun, tears suddenly flowed down her face and she quickly performed the Sky Eagle Salute with her child.
The medical sister nodded and then looked at the baker who looked unhappy.
The baker's lips turned pale and he stammered, "Ouch, my butt hurts."
With the help of Horatio, the medical sister quickly helped the baker up.
“Hey, it’s been bandaged, and the bleeding is very effective…” The medical sister opened her eyes wide and murmured in surprise.
"I bandaged him temporarily. Sorry, my technique is not very good. He should be able to hold out until we can get to the hospital." Horatio smiled awkwardly.
"Sir, you did a great job. Your emergency bandage saved his life. Otherwise, he might not have survived until now. The Emperor of God approves of your actions."
The medical sister nodded respectfully.
Horatio knew that this was the highest level of respect the daughters of the God-Emperor could show to a mortal.
With the arrival of several expanded-capacity rescue Valkyrie transport aircraft, the medical team from the Navy Treatment and Rehabilitation Ward arrived, and a group of stretchers were brought to the front of the vehicle at the beckoning of the medical sisters.
"Sir, can you give me a hand?"
"Glad to help." Horatio and the hospital sister carried the injured baker onto the stretcher, one after the other.
In the sky, a Battle Sisters shuttle loaded with seriously wounded soldiers, about to take off, hovered above them, and a rescue line was dropped from it.
The medical sister quickly tied the stretcher and passed one side of the strap through the hook of the power armor.
She pulled the rope twice and it began to rise slowly.
"Thank you for your hard work." Horatio said respectfully as he looked at the medical sister who was gradually rising like an angel.
"It's my duty. I'm Arabella, the medical sister. May the wisdom and virtue of the Emperor be practiced on earth. May the wisdom and light of the Emperor guide your path forward, kind sir." After this direct dealings, these combat sisters in front of him evoked Horatio's memories of the Order of Combat Sisters.
He remembered that after the Age of Apostasy, the Sisters of Battle were split into two monasteries based on beliefs, styles, ways of doing things, and political considerations.
The Monastery of the Saints is located on a satellite called Ophelia VII, under which are the Order of the Bloody Rose with red armor, the Order of the Heart of Courage with black armor, and the "poster girl" of the state religion, the famous "Order of Our Martyred Saints", who is the star of almost all propaganda posters.
Another monastery that is not as famous as the Monastery of the Saints is the Monastery of the Prophet located on Terra.
The reason was obvious - they were too calm, not fanatical at all, and more like a dull female version of the Astartes Chapter.
Most importantly, they are hardly controlled by the Ecclesiarchy, but instead take orders directly from the Mother Superior of the Sisters of Battle.
The Grand Master is one of the High Lords of Terra, and in theory is on par with the Pope of the Ecclesiarchy.
This clearly defined relationship also made the girls of the Prophet's Monastery unpopular with the extremely possessive state religion.
But no one would question the fighting ability of the girls from the Prophet's Monastery.
According to the retired veterans of the Middle Nest who liked to brag to these kids, the girls of the Prophet's Monastery fought "like an Emperor's Baneblade super-heavy tank slowly rolling over the enemy's battle line. We have never seen such neat and orderly lines and volleys."
Another little-known fact is that only they, the nuns of the Prophet's Monastery, can serve as the top abbess.
The Saints Monastery could only serve as the second in command, the assistant abbot, for obvious and intuitive reasons: fanatical but not rational enough.
They also have three chapters under their jurisdiction: the Ebony Grail Order of black armor and white robes; the Silver Robe Order of silver armor and red robes, which is the mother order of the current Grand Master; and the Holy Rose Order of silver armor and black robes, which is what we are seeing with our own eyes.
The Sisters of the Holy Rose do not call themselves servants of the God-Emperor, but rather see themselves as heralds of the Divine Will and the Spirit of Reason.
The entire order firmly believes that they are acting under the inspiration of the wisdom of the God-Emperor, and are willing to work hard to promote the glory of the God-Emperor in the galaxy. They are justified by faith, which is completely contrary to the mainstream theory of the state religion.
The state religion spreads fanaticism and personality cult, while the latter spreads justification by faith and rational thinking.
The belief theories of both sides are incompatible. If the Holy Roses did not have guns in their hands and the support of the Prophet's Monastery behind them, they would have been labeled as heretics long ago.
The battle for believers and disputes over faith are no secret in Abyssport.
The Holy Rosary Monastery with its attached hospital was located in Abyssal Harbor, opposite the Admiralty, and Horatio had seen it with his own eyes.
The holy tower shining with silver light reaches the sky and runs across the middle and upper nests. It is the largest and best "Navy Hospital" in Abyss Port, and also the training and apprenticeship headquarters for medical nuns.
This is the legacy of the Gothic Wars.
In the early 41st Millennium, in order to suppress the evil plague created in the Crucible of the Pestilence Power, and to heal countless war wounded.
The Holy Rose Order, active in the eastern and northern territories of the Empire, established a monastery in Abyss Port, the capital of the Gothic Star Sector. As Abyss Port's strategic position became increasingly important, it gradually became the largest medical monastery and eventually became the headquarters of the Star Region Medical Order.
The Holy Roses treated the wounded of the navy, and the Imperial Navy did its best to deliver the Holy Roses and their beliefs to wherever they wanted to go in the shortest possible time. The two sides reached a wonderful mutual assistance relationship.
The Sisters is a large organizational structure with many branches under it.
The Sisters of Medicine belong to the Order of the Sisters of Medicine. They are not only warriors, but also recognized as the best female doctors and nurses in the entire empire.
As the galactic war intensifies.
Under the reforms of the future Grand Mother of the Battle Sisters, 'Joan of Arc' Mervyn Val in the early 42nd millennium.
Now the medical sisters have also been incorporated into the combat formation and become part of the combat sister team, wearing heavy force-feedback power armor.
Horatio solemnly performed the Salute of the Eagle to the nun.
"Horatio." Until a serious and loud female voice called him back.
