An hour after defeating these elven attackers, a middle-aged strong man who came out for endurance training climbed to this wilderness. Although the climate was cold, he had almost no clothes on and just relied on exercise and physical fitness to adapt.
But at this moment, the whole mountain has long been restored to calm.
Xie Yuan is professional at destroying corpses and removing traces. At this moment, he is resting temporarily in a cave with the little one in the training cabin. Xie Yuan is preparing baby food for the little one.
Milk powder, breast milk... Who would have thought that although these elves are both male and female, the protrusions on their female breasts are not thymus glands!
So for the breast milk, Xie Yuan had to spend money to buy it in the system mall - luckily the system mall still sells it... I don't know who he got it from.
After mixing the lotion according to the ratio of 6:4, Xie Yuan poured the mixed lotion into the bionic baby bottle he purchased at the same time, shook it carefully, let its self-heating function warm the lotion, and then handed it to his open hands. It's in the hands of the little one who wants it.
Then, as if he didn't need anyone to teach him, he automatically took the bottle head and put it into his mouth, and started sucking "chirp, chirp, chirp".
It looked really cute. Xie Yuan lovingly watched the little one eat while looking at several stasis chambers modified with Prothean technology piled next to them. There were stacked there the elf priests who had just been defeated by Xie Yuan and a few more. Elf warrior...
Oh, that's wrong, the collective name of these elves in this universe should be called the Eldar, and humans call them the Eldar/Aeldari.
Corresponding to Xie Yuan's Mass Effect world, the Eldar are as long-lived as the Asari, with an average lifespan of about a thousand years. They can also grow to be immortal for ten thousand years, but this is a very small number.
Asari are born psychics, and Eldar are also born psychics, and all Eldar can manipulate spiritual energy.
But unlike the Asari, who were the first to discover the Citadel Council, which is friendly and advocates peace and unity, the Eldar are particularly arrogant!
Love reading books
The Eldar believe that other species are "inferior" both visually and spiritually. Although humans and Eldar have many similarities, because Eldar are generally taller and less hairy than humans, things become Eldar. Think of a human being as a hairy dwarf monkey.
But it is undeniable that the Eldar are one of the oldest races in the galaxy, possessing very advanced science and technology and highly developed psychic abilities.
Xie Yuan looked at the memories of their past through the mind of this Eldar priest, who defined themselves as the soul prophet: at the peak of the Eldar empire, the stars were just playthings that could be extinguished and rekindled at a whim. Surfing under solar flares is a pleasant pastime. Dreams can be realized by just using your brain. Death is as comfortable as hanging up and taking a rest. After enough rest, you can be reincarnated and start over again.
But now he also knows that the Spirit Race is not getting better recently. Because of their excessive arrogance, they have fallen into infinite depravity.
Although the Eldar are also the top overlord civilization in this universe, as the Eldar civilization becomes more and more extreme, developing and indulging in new morbid sensory experiences has become the core of the scientific research and cultural life of the Eldar. The entire race fell into all kinds of lawless depravity and evil.
It seems that a spiritual invisible being, Salish, AKA Slaanesh, is constantly destroying the spirit gods of the upper echelons of the Eldar Empire, and the Eldar Empire is about to be destroyed.
This group of Eldar priests who came out to hunt down the little ones were one of the far-sighted sects who noticed the Great Eldar Empire Pill. It's just that they didn't focus on escaping, but they actually predicted through the so-called psychic prophecy that the little ones would massacre them in the future, so they changed their sailing route and came here.
And this is also an important reason why Xie Yuan didn't dare to kill rashly and could only be imprisoned in the stasis cabin, because he couldn't see how these guys got here? !
This is incredible. Are they teleporting through psychic energy? Or was it dropped to the ground via airdrop?
The former is okay. If you kill the small one, the old one won't appear. He can prevent the pursuers later from finding him. If the latter is really dropped by airdrop, will the starship in the orbit of the planet die when the hostages are killed? Post-execution orbital strike?
So in addition to stripping off all the weapons and equipment from this soul prophet, several howling banshees, and a dimensional spider, he then placed them in the stasis cabin and locked them. The stasis cabin would all be stored in the backpack space.
As for the weapons and equipment, they were treated as an apology for offending Xie Yuan. If there was a chance to repatriate these people in the future, he would probably have to collect stasis cabin maintenance fees, cabin fees, life insurance fees, etc. from their leaders. item costs.
After some random thinking, Xie Yuan also began to make plans for action in this world.
The task given to him by the system is a very vague one with a very high degree of freedom:
[Main mission name: Make a name for yourself]
[Main mission premise:
The Eldar Empire has come to an end, and the human era has gradually emerged again. Terra (the Earth) in this universe has been reunified, and the new leader is named "Emperor".
The Emperor is ambitious and vows to recreate the last golden age of mankind and realize the great ambition of mankind's great rejuvenation.
And he has already taken the first step: the war for the unification of the solar system has begun vigorously. Once the solar system is successfully unified, he will soon embark on a great journey to conquer the entire galaxy.
Let’s temporarily define this great undertaking as the “Great Expedition.” 】
[Main mission requirements:
I. Survive: Try to survive in this universe for ten thousand years, which can be calculated cumulatively.
(Survival time: 0/10000Y)
II. Seeking fame: Try to be known to more creatures and forces in this universe.
(Real world reputation: unknown
Subspace reputation: occasionally heard)
III. Experience: Witness all major events in the human empire.
Currently experiencing an event: Battle of the Solar System
Participation level: 0%]
[Task reward: settled after completion. 】
I go! This is so perfunctory! Xie Yuan could not have imagined that after the system gave such an empty structure, it would not even give a reward. Is the reward too tempting to reveal the secret?
And what is the reputation of subspace that you have heard of occasionally? Who is paying attention to me? Xie Yuan looked around cautiously, not knowing why.
However, Xie Yuan soon received a reward notification from another system and an additional convenience:
[You successfully rescued a Primarch carefully crafted by the Emperor and achieved a stage milestone event. 】
[Start calculating special currency rewards... 888 points. 】
[Convenient development tasks given by the system: Agents can escape from this universe at any time and go to other universes, worlds or secret realms to deal with personal matters. 】
[Tip I: The ratio of the time the agent spends traveling to other worlds to the time elapsed in this world is 1:1. Once out of this universe, the main task I will automatically interrupt the timing, and the agent must return to this universe before restarting the count. 】
[Tip II: As the temporary guardian of the Emperor's 12th Primarch, the agent can take him in and out of the universe, but only before the 30th of the Human Era. The Primarch cannot miss the Great Crusade.
Since the beginning of the Great Crusade, all Primarchs must return to this universe to assist the Emperor, the Destined Son of this era of the human world, in completing the supreme cause of the Human Empire.
The current time is: Human Era 30]
"So, you little guy is still a Primarch? Hehe." Xie Yuan began to use his fingers to tease the little one's cheek, which was sucking milk hard. "You are still the twelfth Primarch. From now on, your nickname will be Xiao twelve."
The little one, who was working hard to cook, was holding the milk bottle in one hand and slapping Xie Yuan's teasing hand with the other, seeming to be silently reprimanding Xie Yuan, "Don't stop me from eating."
"Crack!" The finger bones were slapped, making a clicking sound.
This little guy’s hands are quite strong! Xie Yuan immediately endured the excruciating pain and withdrew his finger. The little boy's impatient slap actually cracked his index finger into a bone.
But soon, as a burst of black fluid material on the skin layer repaired the injured part of the finger, after condensation, the black material quickly began to fade away, and then the finger contracted and expanded a few times before returning to normal.
I just did a rough test, but the result made Xie Yuan a little shocked. It's just that the No. 12 Primarch had such a high-strength physical structure when he was young, and it's not clear what the difference is. special functions.
So conversely, what terrifying abilities do other Primarchs have?
And the most important thing, the biggest factor that brought him here - the gene seed of the original gene that counts as "zero". What ability does he have to be named "zero"?
But I have to admit that the Emperor's Primarch is truly terrifying!
After eating and drinking enough, the little one casually put the bottle aside. Xie Yuan quickly caught it with quick eyes and hands, and then saw the little one quickly falling into a deep sleep.
He eats a lot, sleeps a long time, and probably doesn’t gain weight. If there wasn’t something magical about him, he would be envious to death.
After opening the bottle cap and pouring out the residue inside, Xie Yuan changed hands and put the bionic bottle into the backpack space, and found time to wash it again.
Now he has walked slowly out of the cave entrance, looking at the magnificent castle buildings thousands of miles away on the mountains, and the densely packed slums like honeycombs under the gorgeous buildings.
…
Xie Yuan did not intend to leave the little one in Nuseriya to arrange for subsequent upbringing - this was not a good environment for raising children.
And he was not sure. What if the high rulers of Nusria, AKA the great slave masters, saw this child and regarded him as a treasure? Or will it be exploited just as a money-making tool?
It's hard not to imagine that they would choose the latter, because the situation on the planet Nusria is a classic style of future technology - high technology + slavery + gladiator fanaticism, a parallel reverse civilization.
In the brain memories of the Eldar Soul Prophet and the Howling Banshee, Xie Yuan saw their basic information about this place.
As a former human colony, there seems to be a certain level of interstellar technology left here, but those who control the power of these technologies are a kind of... large slave owners collectively called "High Rider" (High Rider). On this planet, except for these big slave owners who call themselves "high knights", the rest are all slaves - the only difference is whose slave they are.
In other words, slaves and big slave owners are the only two classes in Nusria: landowners and slaves.
Nusria has the ability and facilities to receive foreign interstellar cargo ships, although the cargo ships are some subspecies that were once humans and later mutated - the Ogryns, which are a hot commodity in the area.
Having grown up on some cold and harsh planet, the Ogryns are more than two meters tall, strong and simple-minded - a hot commodity in this kind of gladiatorial arena. The people, whether they are slaves or nobles, love to see how the locally trained gladiator slaves can kill ferocious beasts or strong mutant humans... or be torn apart by the latter.
And don’t mention it, the position of gladiator slave is considered to be the top profession in Nusria. Ordinary slaves can’t get it on their knees - those who can be gladiators are all among the best. No warrior.
Here, a gladiator is a highly sought-after position with high benefits. As long as you can continue to kill, no matter what the target is or how many there are, as long as you kill them all one by one and then continue to get up, you are a very useful...slave.
By fulfilling the killing wish of a high-ranking knight, you can obtain sufficient food (to ensure physical fitness), be eaten countless times and have no problem dying (guaranteed to vent), and regular women of the right age who can become pregnant (to bring in the brave genes) Pass it down, and the next generation will continue to be gladiators)...
And you only need to do two things: never lose, and always be obedient, and you will get everything mentioned above.
Xie Yuan doesn't know whether the locals in Nusria are used to oppression and whether they have any desire to resist, and he doesn't want to know for the time being - here, the general trend is not on Xie Yuan's side, and the means of production are all in the hands of the big slave owners. , Xie Yuan must invest extra efforts to help the people at the bottom turn around.
But Xie Yuan hasn't put in so much effort yet, so he can only start slowly.
However, Xie Yuan would not allow the little one to grow up in such a wild manner without receiving any basic education. This is not a way that modern people can accept.
Even if he hurts his brain, no matter how stupid he is, he still needs to be literate, learn basic empathic thinking, and learn to establish some correct views.
After completing the above-mentioned part of establishing his own personality, Xie Yuancai dared to put the little one back here after he grew up, otherwise... he would not worry.
"Ahhh! Ahhh!" Suddenly there was a babbling sound from behind, and then I felt someone pulling on me on my leg.
He lowered his head and turned around to see, Huo! It turned out to be a little kid. Somehow, he opened the protective cover by himself, then quietly crawled behind him, and then pulled his calf.
Is this ability pretty good? ! Xie Yuan's heart was filled with turmoil - if a killer approached him like this without any killing intent, how would he break through the defense?
However, this has nothing to do with being a child. It is probably because children fall asleep quickly and wake up quickly. When they see that they are no longer around, they pull the hatch cover down by themselves.
Having said that, it was indeed the little guy who opened the hatch cover by himself before and poked himself in the face... His hands-on skills are indeed quite good, and he might be able to develop his technician skills.
Xie Yuan picked up the little one, then gently put it into his arms, and then walked step by step to the side of the training cabin.
Unexpectedly, when he looked in his arms again, the little one actually fell asleep again, and there was even tears flowing from the corners of his mouth...
hey-hey! What a child, Xie Yuan still gently covered the transparent hatch cover of the child who had fallen asleep, then collected several stasis capsules piled aside, and was ready to leave.
I silently recited "Return" in my mind, and then the image of a huge Sahelian ape flashed in my mind...
"Brush!" The light flashed past, and Xie Yuan and the little original No. 12 sleeping peacefully in the training cabin disappeared into the cave together.
But what Xie Yuan didn't know was that a burst of purple smoke suddenly drifted past the entrance of the cave where they had just disappeared.
The wind outside the cave blew into the nest, and the whining sound seemed to be mixed with a slight murmur:
"Stranger..."
"A soul that doesn't belong here..."
"Anger wrapped... like a pie..."
"He will be furious...but maybe happy...a twist..."
…
And Terra, who is far away in the star field of the solar system, is next to the Star Torch Hall under construction.
"Plop!" A beautiful transparent crystal was suddenly smashed to pieces by a huge claw.
The movement even affected the mortals who were working on the construction, as well as the tall and sturdy guards standing beside him, wearing splendid armor. They all turned their heads attentively to face the towering figure bathed in golden light.
"Don't worry about me." In the light, a calm voice came from the towering figure, "Please continue your work."
So the guards and builders continued to build this palace, which they regarded as the emperor's residence.
Instead, a figure shrouded in black robes slowly approached the figure in the golden light. The rickety figure looked older, and the words he spoke were soft and soft...but sonorous and powerful: "Your Majesty, what's troubling you?"
He could see that there was something in this towering figure's heart that was... messed up.
The towering figure did not conceal his state of mind from the cloaked man, and went straight to the point: "Twelve, he is gone."
The cloaked man made a rare move, then lowered his head gently and persuaded: "They were just taken away by them, but they should not harm them."
"Yes, I have fully sensed their approximate location. They are growing up in a completely different environment."
The majestic figure paused for a while before sharing his discovery: "But now, Twelve's signals are no longer projected. I can't... feel Twelve anymore."
"Did something happen to him?" The cloaked man subconsciously said his guess, but then overturned the speculation, "It's impossible. If that's the case, although it's not as big as the one who caused the commotion, it's absolutely impossible to do that. Silence."
"Then where did he go?"
He asked himself a question that even the cloaked man could not answer. After a pause, the towering figure sighed softly:
"Variables, the future has become blurry again."
