Chapter 86 Future Interstellar Dragon Aotian
Elton laughed and said, "It's simple. I want to invite you to join me."
"Why did you invite me?" Mu Lingnan asked calmly. She thought she had not done anything to reveal her identity.
"Because being mixed-blood is the original sin, isn't it?" Elton stared at her with a pair of bloodshot eyes.
Bloody Duke!
Mu Lingnan's pupils shrank sharply, and her face was filled with surprise. As far as she knew, the blood clan had a lineage of dukes, marquises, earls, viscounts, and barons. The duke was only below the highest prince. But after the twilight of the blood clan, there were no more princes, and the duke was the highest. But how could a blood clan of this bloodline fall to the star of Ino?
She didn't ask about the confusion in her heart, but just said, "Let me think about it."
Elton didn't press. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Okay, then I'll take Xie Xiangchen and leave first. Our Little Sunflowers still have a competition today. If Xiao Lingnan needs anything, the waiter here will help you."
He smiled and hugged Xie Xiangchen as if nothing had happened, then turned and left. Elton's red eyes gave Mu Lingnan a last, meaningful look. "By the way, Lingnan, it's very dangerous here. It's best not to run around. If you need to find me, you can go find Sister Adeline."
This isn't really a threat.
Mu Lingnan was too tired to complain. She put her hand on the cold railing. The noisy crowd below slowly retreated, leaving only the huge hall returning to silence. After the cleaning was completed, new people would enter this bloody place, either to watch or to survive.
Mixed blood. Elton was right. In ancient times, mixed blood was considered a blasphemy against the blood given by God, and a disrespect to God. Even in the interstellar space, the power of God still exists. The ideas that have been controlled by the church for thousands of years still have a profound influence today. The church was defeated hundreds of years ago, but the old ideas have not been eliminated.
Until now, the situation of the mixed-bloods was only slightly better than that of the fallen race. In other words, without the threat of the fallen race, the mixed-bloods would be the next fallen race.
Mu Lingnan let out a sneer.
Now is the interstellar age, but under the influence of the four main races, the various races are still clearly divided. Obviously, the mainstream ideology does not support inter-ethnic marriage, but countless mixed-race children are still born every year because of love and freedom.
Mu Lingnan had never met her mother. She grew up in the Celestial Tribe's homeland and had only visited the Elven Tribe's home planet a few times. But she still remembered the icy cold gaze of the Elven Queen as she looked at her, and Cecil's sudden clenched hand beside her.
The Queen of the Elf Tribe wanted to kill her, but she didn't know why. Since then, she has never been to the Elf Planet again.
Mu Lingnan didn't remember anything about her birth. Cecil was born pure-blooded, the son of the God of Light who was born with twelve wings, but she was just an ordinary half-Elf and half-Celestial child. After practicing hard until now, she had only grown four wings.
The strength of the Celestial Clan is manifested in the wings behind them. It is said that when Cecil was born, golden light spread from the Celestial Clan's main star to the endless sea at the edge of the territory, and hymns resounded throughout the star field. They firmly believed that this was a divine oracle.
But Mu Lingnan, the biological sister of the Son of God, is a lowly half-blood. Mu Lingnan couldn't help but want to laugh.
The talent of her elven bloodline is far higher than that of the Celestial Clan, but she grew up in the Celestial Clan, so naturally she has to abide by the Celestial Clan's rules. Due to Cecil's existence, they dare not do anything to her openly, but the prerequisite is that she must be a Celestial Clan member.
Should she be thankful that the only sign of her elven bloodline is a pair of pointed ears?
But even so, when Mu Lingnan was a child in the same kindergarten, there were still annoying children from the Celestial Clan who would deliberately pull her ears with such force that it was almost as if they were going to break them.
Mu Lingnan had a big fight with him, and the matter was reported to her parents. She didn't know what Cecil did afterwards, but no one in the tribe had any trouble with her about her elf ears since then.
Mu Lingnan was momentarily dazed as she recalled many things from her childhood. If she hadn't been a second-born human, even with Cecil's protection, she would have been affected, not to mention other children in worse situations.
Her hands tightened unconsciously until she was awakened by a "Miss" in her ear.
Mu Lingnan suddenly came back to her senses and was shocked that her vigilance had dropped to such a low level.
She looked up and saw the "Cold Flow" who had been on the field earlier. Seeing him up close, Mu Lingnan was shocked to find that he was probably even younger than she had expected. According to the age conversion between the mermaids and humans, he was only about thirteen or fourteen years old.
Cold Flow's clear blue eyes looked at Mu Lingnan coldly. There was a calmness in her eyes that didn't match her age. The mermaid's voice, always clear and intoxicating, uttered from her throat: "Adeline, I want to see you."
Mu Lingnan looked at her seriously and finally nodded.
"That brat Elton is a bit too impulsive when he's young." Adeline held her pipe in one hand, her eyes, painted with crimson eyeshadow, slightly raised at the corners. She glanced at something vaguely and smiled, "I, his sister, had to help him. He deserves a beating."
Mu Lingnan lowered her eyes and said nothing.
"I took care of him for a while when he was little, but now that he's grown up, he's become disrespectful."
"Look after...but he is not..." Mu Lingnan asked.
"You mean, given his lineage, he shouldn't be here?" Adeline laughed. After she finished laughing, she said, "I can't tell you that. But if you come and ask him in person, maybe he'll tell you."
"I guess your current concern is that you think this organization is no different from those pirate organizations under the banner of so-called equal rights. It's just a way to seize power. Am I right?" Adeline took a puff of cigarette and said lightly.
Mu Lingnan's eyes trembled, and she said coldly: "Isn't this underground arena owned by you?"
"My dear, you are so cute." Adeline laughed so hard that her body trembled when she heard this. After a long while, she looked at Mu Lingnan with a very gentle gaze and said slowly, "If we weren't there, there would be others."
"Little cutie, the reason the underground arena exists isn't because we're here, but because the ghetto is here. But at least we're here, and some people can still survive."
"The leaders of the four tribes have been superior for too long. They no longer have the motivation to change, but we, the children who have been angry for a long time, are eager for change."
"That's not the case..." Mu Lingnan wanted to say that Cecil had promised her that he would give true equality to the mixed-bloods in the Celestial Clan's territory, but she suddenly became unsure.
Adeline noticed her hesitation and helped her finish the sentence: "My dear, your family may just be coaxing you. The courage to go against the world is always rare. The so-called empathy is always just empty talk."
"That's not true!" Mu Lingnan was furious. Cecil would never lie to her. If he said he could do it, then he really could do it.
"Okay, okay, cutie, you're right." Adeline said perfunctorily, "But I really mean it. Elton and Xiao Xiangchen are both good kids, cutie. The world isn't always black and white."
Mu Lingnan left angrily. "Hanliu", who had been listening to their conversation quietly, quietly stood up and followed her out. Adeline, who was watching all this, sighed very softly.
After all, you are still young.
"elder sister."
"Hanliu" suddenly called out to her. Mu Lingnan lowered her head and looked at the little girl, whose eyes were very clear and bright.
She said softly, "I grew up here. Without the leader and everyone else, I would have died long ago. So I must work hard to cultivate and help everyone."
"So, it's pretty good here, and everyone here is not the bad guy that my sister thinks they are." She said very seriously.
Mu Lingnan was speechless for a moment, staring blankly at the little girl's face, which hadn't yet fully developed. She hadn't grown up yet, but she was already a warrior. Mu Lingnan replied with equal seriousness, "Okay, I understand."
She asked, "I heard your code name is 'Cold Wave', and your name is..."
Cold Flow smiled and said, "Olia, the leader said this name means the spirit of the deep sea. I like it very much."
After saying goodbye to Olivia, Mu Lingnan walked aimlessly alone in the long and narrow corridor.
"Meow~"
The warm touch on her calf made Mu Lingnan slowly lower her head. She fell into deep thought: Is my vigilance really that bad? It’s okay for Olivia, but now, I can’t even find a kitten.
Mu Lingnan began to doubt her own abilities. She decided that when she returned, she must train more!
A black cat with silky-soft fur bumped into her calf. It raised its deep green eyes to look at Mu Lingnan, looking adorable. The man and the cat looked at each other silently. Suddenly, the cat lay on the ground, sweeping its tail across Mu Lingnan's calf bit by bit, and meowed coquettishly.
Mu Lingnan: ...
She tentatively raised her left leg, and the black cat immediately moved a little to the left. She raised her right foot again, and the cat immediately blocked her right foot.
Mu Lingnan realized: This cat is trying to scam her!
The question is...this cat can actually appear in the arena, so it must be the cat of the arena.
Mu Lingnan bent down and tentatively picked up the black cat. As expected, the black cat did not resist and let her do what she wanted.
...So good.
Mu Lingnan stroked the black cat's extremely soft fur. The black cat even knew to retract its claws and rubbed Mu Lingnan's jaw with its head, which made her heart soften.
What a cute big black cat, I want to take it home and raise it.
But it didn't work. After enjoying petting the cat for a few minutes, Mu Lingnan was reluctant to let it go. After all, it was someone else's cat. Even though it seemed to be kept free in the arena, it was still someone else's cat.
But when the cat was about to be put down, it was unhappy.
It meowed continuously, each meow becoming more and more sweet and meowing, looking extremely aggrieved. It bit the corner of Mu Lingnan's sleeve and held onto her hand tightly, not wanting to get down.
Mu Lingnan was distressed. She coaxed him with a voice as gentle as dripping water: "Mimi, no, Mimi, I want to leave. I can't leave if you are like this."
But the cat said that it was just a kitten and it would not listen.
Just when Mu Lingnan and the black cat were in a stalemate.
"Xiao Lingnan, you are here, what a coincidence!" Mu Lingnan heard the voice before she saw the person. She looked in the direction of the voice and her ears trembled slightly.
These two people walked without making any sound at all.
Mu Lingnan realized with resentment that she really needed to improve her abilities. The small planet of Ino was actually home to so many hidden talents.
Elton's eyes swept across the big cat in her arms, and he paused almost imperceptibly: "Why, Xiao Lingnan, have you considered joining us?"
You don't even give me the option to refuse, right? At least cover it up!
Mu Lingnan replied angrily: "I don't agree, will you let me go back?"
"Hmm," Elton pointed his finger at the side of his face and frowned, "Maybe."
hehe.
"Come on."
Mu Lingnan caught a glimpse of Xie Xiangchen walking behind Elton, and her nose keenly smelled a hint of blood. She wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the black cat in her arms that suddenly became noisy.
"Okay, Mimi, be good." Mu Lingnan coaxed again and again. After finally soothing the big baby in her arms, she asked Elton: "Is this cat Adeline's?"
“…No, it’s not.”
For some reason, Mu Lingnan felt that Elton's expression when he said this was particularly strange, "This cat is..."
Elton looked into the cat's emerald green eyes and suddenly changed his tone: "This cat has no owner. If Xiao Lingnan wants to keep it, you can take it home and raise it."
Mu Lingnan:
"This, this is not good." Mu Lingnan pretended to refuse. She really liked this cat, but a gentleman would not take away someone else's love.
"Don't lie to me, this cat must belong to its owner."
Elton sighed. "Well, it's actually the chief's cat, but it only loves the chief and never pays any attention to us. If anything happens to his pet while the chief is away, I'll be dead. Since it likes you so much, please be kind and help us take care of it for a few days."
Mu Lingnan's heart was moved: "Forget it, this belongs to your leader after all. I'm a newcomer, so it won't be convenient."
"It's not inconvenient at all. We get along so well, so of course I trust you very much."
After they argued back and forth for a while, Mu Lingnan happily carried the cat back to her dormitory. "Little kitty, now you've entered my room, you're my cat. Give mommy a kiss."
Elton was left stroking his chin, looking puzzled as he asked, "Xiao Xiangchen, why does our leader insist on living with that little girl? Even if he's the leader, it's too..."
Xie Xiangchen silently reminded: "The leader can hear you."
Elton immediately changed his tone: "The leader must have his reasons for doing this."
But...even hypnosis magic was used for this. Even Elton felt that the leader was a little tortured, but he didn't dare to say it.
【Author’s words】
Meow, to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings, I will tell you directly that it is another brother.
