After a long time, Soshyan carried Veronica to the sofa. She immediately sat sideways on his lap and gently pinched his cheeks with her hands.
"What's wrong? Who made our Imperial Warmaster angry?"
Soshyan forced a smile and brushed Veronica's hair with his left hand.
"After all, I almost lost the most important thing."
Veronica tilted her head.
"I assume Ockham told you?"
Soshyan sighed.
"I don't want to hear his name now. Fortunately you're okay, otherwise I really wouldn't know."
Soshyan didn't say the next words because he didn't know what would happen if something happened to Veronica.
"Okay, am I okay? Don't worry about it after it's over, but the situation at that time was really weird."
Then Veronica explained everything that happened in the Blackstone Fortress in a relaxed tone.
While listening, Soshyan frowned at first, and then showed surprise. When he heard Russ stabbing Veronica several times with weapons, he still showed anger. When he heard Corax appeared, After that, he was stunned.
By the time Veronica finished speaking, he could be said to have mixed emotions.
"Why is this Leman Russ so crazy? But the appearance of Corax is not surprising. After all, the appearance of Kassati, the 'traitor' of the Eighth Legion, is actually a reminder. I also guess that this original body is in the world. Maelstrom, I didn’t expect that he protected you in the end. Will all this be related to the Bewilderr? Or is it related to Jaghatai Khan? Are the disappeared original bodies still in contact with each other? "
Although Russ's attack on the Eternal Queen does not seem unreasonable at first glance. After all, the empire is unconditionally destroying the aliens, but the timing of the opponent's appearance, the attitude shown, and various signs indicate that this matter is abnormal. Combined with the Austrian Cam said that someone might have provided information to Leman Russ. Soshyan always felt that there was a huge conspiracy behind this matter, and the core of the conspiracy was Veronica.
And if you think about it carefully, since he went to Comoros to rescue Veronica, the original bodies have appeared one after another. Does this also imply something?
And the disappearance of Kayon, Sol, Sevatar and others for such a long time, is this also related to all this?
Is the sudden change in the gray marrow in the hulk also a coincidence?
So many clues and people were like threads, tangled together in a way he couldn't understand, forming a huge ball of thread that tightly wrapped the core things.
"Are you stunned again? You must be thinking about those conspiracies and plans again. Soshiyang, I actually thought about it a lot. I think it's time for us to reduce our dependence on those external forces. We must use our own Ideas, our own plans, our own hands to protect our own future and children."
Soshyan nodded subconsciously.
"That's true, huh?"
Suddenly, he reacted and a look of confusion appeared on his face.
With a sly expression that said "you'll never guess", Veronica put her arms around his neck and put her mouth to his ear, whispering:
"We're having a baby."
In an instant, all the muscles in Soshiyang's body tensed up, his eyes widened, and his head even shut down as he asked a silly question.
"Where is the child?"
"fool!"
Veronica pinched his face.
"Of course it's in my belly! Oh, you look like a child, I'm pregnant, you idiot!"
"this--"
Although Soshyan's body gradually relaxed, his whole mind was almost confused. It was almost common sense that Astartes were infertile, let alone aliens like Ada. This simply took away all current biology. Sweeped into the trash.
Veronica grabbed his left hand and guided it to her lower abdomen.
"Ms. Lorena has confirmed that she will be pregnant soon."
Soshiyang pursed his lips. He still seemed to be in the clouds. The impact of this news on his world view was no less than the first time he saw the Bewitcher.
children, offspring.
He thought that these would never have anything to do with him, so although his love for Veronica transcended the boundaries of the Astartes, it did not affect him from completing his mission.
But now, these seem to have changed.
At a certain moment, he seemed to really feel some kind of throbbing of blood in his palm.
But what will be born from the union of humans and Ada? What's more, he is still an Astartes, and there seems to be power hidden in him that does not belong to the mortal world. Veronica is not a simple Ada. What kind of life will be born from the union of the two?
Countless thoughts raced through his mind, but none of them could bring him a sure answer.
At this time, Veronica's little hand touched his cheek.
"Aren't you happy?"
Soshiyang came back to his senses, then put his arms around the other person's waist, keeping the two bodies close to each other, and whispered:
"Thank you, Veronica, I'm not unhappy, it's just that I never thought that I would have a descendant, and I never thought that I would have the identity of a father one day. It was all too sudden for me. "
"Not to mention you, I am also very surprised, but isn't this the crystallization of our love that transcends racial boundaries? And husband, don't you think it would be too lonely if there were only two people in the lonely galaxy? If we talk about humans and Ada In the end, we can't accept our marriage, so at least we still have our children."
Hearing this, Soshiyang said nothing, just lowered his head and kissed his wife's lips gently.
After a long time, the two separated. Soshyan gently stroked his wife's face and whispered:
"Veronica, I will protect you and our children with my life so that this never happens again."
Veronica blinked, smiled brightly, and said:
"Then what if Leman Russ comes again?"
"Then I'll beat him until he's on his knees and until he surrenders. If he still refuses to obey, I'll tie him up with a chain."
"Haha, aren't you afraid that he will go to his father to complain?"
"I'm responsible for this matter and I'm not afraid of him suing."
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Soshyan's mood improved a lot. At this time, Veronica suddenly thought of something and frowned.
"One more thing. I actually came back a few days ago. The day before you came back, a mysterious blind bald man appeared in the yard."
"Huh? Are you blind?"
"Ah, he is all golden, without shoes, and only wearing an orange robe. He looks like some kind of priest or monk. He covers his eyes with cloth strips. There are many strange circuit markings on his body. I don't know where he came from. , the security system was not triggered. I went over to ask him who he was, but he didn’t say anything. He just made a strange gesture, probably clenching his hands on his chest, holding the index finger of his left hand with his right fist, and then nodded three times and turned around. It was very baffling to leave.”
