Chapter 7 She is your ancestor
"I've always wanted to talk to you about what happened that day."
"What's up?"
As soon as I asked her, she knew what it was, so she bit her lip and looked away unnaturally.
"That night we..." Luka started to speak but was interrupted by the butler behind him.
"Master, Officer Ans has something urgent to discuss with you. I have brought him to your office." The butler stood at the garden gate and bent down to ask for instructions.
Qiao Suisui breathed a sigh of relief, yet also felt a touch of disappointment. Ultimately, the two didn't finish their conversation. Luka walked her back to her room and never mentioned what happened that night again.
Inside the office.
Ans couldn't wait to say: "Colonel, we really made a great contribution this time."
Luka unbuttoned two buttons on his military uniform, took out a cigarette and lit it.
"Just state the conclusion."
"You left in a hurry, grabbed the necklace, and left without listening to the interrogation. Later, the boss confessed, saying that the last female auctioned that night was not an orc."
"What do you mean not an orc?"
"She's an ancient human."
Luka paused holding the cigarette, turned to look at Ans, and found that he looked excited.
"I also thought it was nonsense at first, but he made such a strong argument that I investigated based on my boss's testimony. He said that when they captured the female, they gave her a comprehensive examination and found that while her anatomy resembled that of a female orc, she didn't have a beastly form."
"Undeveloped females may not be able to transform into beast forms," Luka retorted.
"They initially thought so, but one day a black market expert came to inspect the item and said that every feature of this little female matched that of an ancient human female." Ons said this seriously, "If it's an ancient human, then the nature of this illegal auction is completely different."
The ancient humans who once inhabited Earth left behind a wealth of survival skills, technological achievements, and artifacts of civilization. These enabled the rapid prosperity, order, and advancement of civilization after the establishment of the Interstellar Federation. Everything about these ancient humans has been called "the Bible." They believe that the Orcs have exploited less than 10% of their wisdom. Currently, even a single piece of ancient human feces is priceless on the black market. Imagine if the Orcs of the Federation, or even the Free Alliance, learned that an ancient human still existed on their planet, the news would be devastating, and even scrambled for it.
Ans was still rambling on with his analysis, but Luka could no longer hear anything. His head was buzzing, and the fingertips holding the cigarette trembled slightly.
No wonder, no wonder he couldn't mark her.
In the primitive era of interstellar space, males would implant their breath into the female's glands after having sex with her. This was to ensure that the female would not be disturbed or snatched away by reckless males when walking outside. Even if the other party was interested, he could sense the strength of his male spouse through the breath of the female, and would have to think twice before taking action.
As the orcs became more civilized, this primitive method was retained, becoming more of a symbol of mutual affection. After all, females can refuse to be marked; the cleaner their scent, the more males they attract, which is more advantageous for them. Later, blocking drugs were invented. When faced with dominant and possessive males, females would take them, thus preventing themselves from being marked.
That night, when he bit her neck in a fit of passion, he found that he couldn't breathe his own scent into her. He thought that Sui Sui had taken this drug. His mind was in turmoil, and then he remembered that he was engaged and had no right to bind her, so he kept silent.
He had originally planned to slowly get along with her, have her accept him as his guardian, and do his best to compensate her for his one and only indulgence in his life.
Luka closed his eyes and pressed his forehead.
"Who knows about this matter now?"
Ans said, "Only another officer and I were present during the interrogation. I came here to report to you as soon as I got the news."
"Okay, block the news first."
He had to confirm Sui Sui's identity again and not be careless like last time.
Ans wondered, "Colonel, aren't we reporting this to our superiors?"
"This matter is of too high a level. We must confirm it before reporting it."
Afterwards, Luka raised the classification level of this underground organization crackdown to the highest level of confidentiality. All personnel involved in the operation were required to submit a report of the incident, recording everything they saw and heard that day, without any omissions. Furthermore, everyone was required to keep the operation confidential, or they would be expelled from the military.
The people in the military were a little surprised by this, because the last time they were asked to maintain this level of confidentiality was during the Battle of the Two Wings.
After Ans left, Luka sat alone at the long desk for a whole day. When he stood up again, the ashtray was full of cigarette butts.
The next day, Sui Sui was told to go out.
"Why do we have to go to an outside hospital when Liberi can just examine me?"
She looked at Luka uneasily, wondering if she had been exposed.
Liberi coaxed her softly, saying, "My healing skills cannot replace a doctor's diagnosis."
Luka knelt on one knee to tie her loose shoelaces and said calmly, "You'll be back soon. I'll be with you the whole way."
So the three of them went to the hospital, and when they were sitting in the spaceship, she unconsciously began to bite her nails.
If it is discovered that she is not an orc, won't she be my prey?
Luka noticed her nervousness and calmly handed her some new gadgets, filling both her hands. Liberi held her in his arms and explained the scenery outside to her.
"Look there, it's the landmark of Atlantis, a symbol of peace."
“This area is the most prosperous, and you can buy anything here.”
"That's the military headquarters, where this guy usually works."
"That's the military academy."
Su Su leaned against the window of the flying ship, distracting herself slightly as she took in the entire empire. This city was indeed very technologically advanced, but she wondered what the world outside Atlantis was like.
"arrive."
Luka carried her off the spaceship. When she was about to get down, she found that Luka did not let go, but just carried her towards the hospital gate.
The hospital staff had already made preparations to welcome her. She poked her head out of Luka's arms and looked around, only to find that there wasn't a single patient there in broad daylight.
"Luka, where are all the patients?"
"This is a hospital exclusively for the royal family, providing services only to members of the royal family. We will first do an examination here, and then we will move your exclusive hospital here."
????? ???? ???? ????
Is she hallucinating?
What is her exclusive hospital?
