Chapter 264 Never Late
[Oh no, this stupid cicada has really reached the level where he is sure to win. ]
[To some extent, the mouths of the Capital Alliance Zerg Clan can be considered a strategic weapon... After crawling for five days in an absolutely dark environment that was poisonous and lacked oxygen, and enduring two large-scale surgeries in a near-death state, and being repeatedly angered by Lord Monetsha, they finally spoke two or three words of truth... If the Capital Alliance Zerg Clan's self-esteem and pretentious brains were used to plug the tidal black hole, the giant alien tide would definitely not be able to enter the Alliance Universe Zone! ]
[Pass it on, Capital Alliance Insect Tribe Mouth-Killing Corps Insect Tribe! ]
[I am speechless. Isn't what the anchor wrote still the same trick of the Capital Alliance Zerg Clan? As long as the seller is ruthless enough and sells it with enough recklessness, you will develop feelings for the Zerg Clan because of guilt and pain. Isn't it still a scam! ]
[The love story of the Capital Alliance insect tribe is centered on deception... Don't tell me, don't tell me, this is it. 】

[@****, the stupid poster of the post, you call Belis Romarazon’s five-day escape a travesty?
If it were you, could you marathon for five days in a completely dark and silent environment that was poisonous, lacked oxygen, and had steel spikes that could scrape your flesh and blood at any time? And you protected Moneshage very carefully, not getting any of the alien poison and blood? Instead of using Moneshage as a reserve energy source, eating it to replenish your physical strength and crawling out of the ground? This is not an unpopular piece of knowledge. The completely dark environment + steel blade skinning and bone removal are among the top ten classic punishment methods of Prison Star. Even the ground soldiers of the Tenth Army who committed crimes could not withstand the scraping of three-wheeled steel blades. 】

Belis's attitude was not confident, but silent and stiff, just like when I was a butler.
Stupid, silent, young Belis. He has only a vague understanding of the world and knowledge. Even if he independently calculates the answer to a difficult problem, even if the answer is completely correct, he must ask me first. Only when I say it is right, he will relax his straight back.
I was actually a little surprised that after waking up from his illness, Belis would directly say that he wanted to start over... Well, okay, it was quite unexpected.
At least three years ago, when I was training and working at Prometheus, the respected Chief Belis never showed any intention to reconnect with Mr. Ross in a normal and proper way. He only used the common workplace dictatorship of suppressing subordinates... oh, the common workplace requirement, requiring Mr. Ross to follow his work group closely, so as to avoid Mr. Ross, who is only good at radar technology research, not good at socializing, and taciturn, offending other members of the work group. Haha.

@Fite: […
I thought that the sober Bayliss would pick up the social art of telling lies again.
After all, when he was drugged, he kept repeating the words that had become power, and his nonsense was full of chips that he couldn't wait to put out.
Isn't it the method that players in the world of fame and fortune are good at using chips of various shapes and sizes, expensive, bloody, morally oppressive, and profitable, to win what they want?
And it was also a very appropriate time. What time? Well... at that time, I was not the first bug to know that Baylis had woken up. The first person to discover that Baylis had woken up was the military doctor in charge of the intensive care unit.
Remember, I said that I had some minor lung problems at the time, and during the fleet repair period, I stayed in the intensive care unit next to Baylis to treat my organ problems, and I didn't stay in Baylis's room all the time.
When Baylis woke up, I was treating him. He quickly summoned the military doctor who was in charge of the intensive care unit to question him. Well, it was a classic style of the lustful privileged. Through the military doctor, Baylis knew that I had used nerve tentacles to keep him mentally active and authorized the removal of his scales and wings, among other dangerous situations.
Chips. Expensive, bloody, moral high ground chips. Bayliss had them all.
But when we were about to part on business, Bayliss did not use these chips, but instead put the sovereignty of reconciliation back in my hands. Just like when he was my butler in the past... well, according to my will, as if only I nodded, the answer he calculated was correct.
That familiar stupidity burned me.
At that time, I subconsciously pulled back the wrist that he was holding.
I didn't pull it out the first time, but I twitched it the second time. However, Baylis didn't completely let go of my hand. He subconsciously hooked my little finger with one index finger, and then stiffly let go of my hand. As soon as we let go of each other's hands, Baylis immediately raised his head and turned to the other side, looking at the other wall, taking a deep breath to adjust his state, and when he turned to look at me again, he had the arrogant and contemptuous attitude of the chief of District 13 that I was more familiar with.
I looked at him, and the moment he lifted his chin, I said, "Hello, Belis, I'm Monesha." I said, "Long time no see, Belis." I said, "You're late again, you're always late." I said, "It's nice to see you again."
Belis maintained his unfinished scrutiny posture, his eyes suddenly widened, and his tentacles half-straightened and flicked to the left and right... ah, this is a bit funny.
Hmm... maybe it was intentional.
In the past, Belis was always too silent, and I wanted him to talk more. When we met again, Chief Belis's words were too dense, and I needed to concentrate and think to taste the true meaning. I actually prefer Belis's rare wolfish look, because when he is wolfish, he speaks more truth and less lies.]
[I told you that playing dumb works!!!] [Uh, generally speaking, this rule is limited to the Capital Alliance Zerg playing dumb, the Legion Zerg in front shouldn’t get too excited!!]
@Fite: […
There was another more important reason. I had to leave for the starport immediately. The fleet sent a message that it was about to leave, and the guardian was waiting for me outside the door. I really didn't have time to spend on Belis. I could only finish the conversation at once and then leave for work immediately.
I said to Baylis, who had a blank face, "Until you recover, I will be responsible for the transportation and on-site commissioning of the remaining Sibyl extensions in the remaining districts."
Then, I raised my hand and stroked his crooked whiskers, just like he hooked my little finger with his index finger, and gently straightened his pubic hair. I said in a calm tone, "Get back to work as soon as possible."
I just left.
Back to where I should be, leading the landing plan for the Sybil extension crew.
At that time, the Sibyll network construction plan was just in the middle and late stages, and there were still several star regions that had not yet constructed the predictive network.
Chief Belis had always been trying to get my department to work closely with his department in the early years... Well, Belis kept providing me with a large amount of overall engineering work cycle blueprints, necessary data module field tests, and other work to ensure that my social circle and his social circle overlapped, thereby maintaining our previously cold relationship.
Belis collapsed at that time, and I became the second scientific research insect in the Sibyl project who was capable of leading the implementation plan of Sibyl.
I was very busy in the following days. For more than half a year, I didn't stay in Prometheus to rest. The Sibyll Predictive Network became more and more difficult to build in the later stages. The alien lords frequently attacked the Zerg transport ships, and Prometheus's scientific research Zerg suffered countless casualties. However, the more disasters Prometheus suffered, the more it continued to build the Sibyll Network despite the threat of death.
The monsters know that the Zerg have the Blade of Divine Power. Once we successfully lay it out, the balance of victory will tip towards us indefinitely.
Aliens kept tearing through the black hole, breathing poisonous gas and corrupt star energy towards the Alliance universe without stopping. The scientific Zerg and the Alliance Legion responded with almost equal sacrifices of flesh and blood, exchanging blood for blood, fighting fear with perseverance, and using countless corpses to pave the Eye of Sibyl's prophetic network to connect the entire Alliance.
In 2126, the Zerg machine successfully descended, and the Legion Zerg went to war across the board.
In 2130, the entire United Alliance area was cleansed, and there were no more deadly enemies on the starry sea.]
[…Oh. 】【No more deadly enemies… That’s great. 】【…】【If the entertainment company hadn’t moved to the Far East, I would have blown you up sooner or later!! The knowledge channel is down and I can only watch in guest mode, so I can’t appreciate it at all!!!]

@Fite: […
During the five years when the Zerg and the Aliens were racing against each other, I spent less time with Belis than with him.
Belis and I are the only two engineers who have mastered all the key codes, software, hardware and other complex data of the Eye of Sibyl. After the full-scale war began, Belis and I naturally split up and promoted the full implementation of the Eye of Sibyl extension separately.
Yes, after we shook hands again in 2121, we met three times in five years from the first time we parted on the transit star until 2126. Each time, we were on heavily armed warships, under the gaze of tens of thousands of eyes, and we could only maintain our identity. We are the authority, the outpost of hope, and we cannot make incorrect actions other than rationality.
After this long race war was over, I was supposed to go back to Prometheus for a vacation and recuperation.
But I didn't go back right away.
When I go back for vacation, I will meet with Bayliss and talk about the topic we left off before. Love.
But before reconsidering love, I thought at that time that I needed to re-understand the other side of the world. Yes, you heard it right, re-understand the world.
At that time, I wrote a reply to Belis who had already returned to the Prometheus area, stating that I would not be going back immediately for the time being because I had some personal matters to take care of.
Belis immediately sent me a video call. In the background of the video call, I saw many Zergs coming and going. All of them were wearing ribbons of honor and had medals on their chests. The big insects of the Union came to Prometheus in person to meet with the Century Engineer, Belis Luo.
Yes, the war was won. As the chief engineer of the Eye of Sibyl, Belis became a powerful magnate, a giant in the field, and a well-deserved founder of science and technology after he became successful. Of course, many big insects would come to him, congratulate him, and invite him to join the top power club of the Alliance.
Me? Well, I got those invitations, too, but I didn't go. There was no point in going.
...Well, remember, the Ross family was also one of the shareholders who invested in the Prometheus zone, but Ross later leaned more towards the conservative technology faction...that is, he did not share the family's important core technology, and gradually faded out of the core circle of the Alliance, concentrating on conquering and upgrading the family's core technology.
I have seen countless similar power banquets, glory, flattery, arrogance... you can imagine, all the power glory mentioned in the news, I have read similar glory in my early years. When I was young, I was carried or brought by my parents, and when I was a teenager, I followed my brothers to attend. When I was a little older... I went to study at the technology family school that the Ross family has had diplomatic relations with for generations.
I said I was from the old school. I wasn't kidding.
The feast of power is just a piece of overly sweet dessert to me. It is high in calories and will cause toothache if you eat too much.
So, I congratulated Belis calmly in the video. When I saw so many heavyweight Zergs coming to see Belis, I knew he would be too busy with social activities to spare the time. So I simply said, "I have some personal matters to attend to. I will come back to Prometheus to see you later. I wish you success that is as sweet as wine."
Then I hung up the call, temporarily logged out of Engineer Ross's work account, shut down my work AI, replaced it with another AI, and left the Legion's warship with two teams of guardians to find the other side of my world.
I visited each of the friendly families that had interacted with the Ross family for generations.
When I was young, I always thought that everything would last for a long time. Whenever I returned home, my blood relatives would always be traveling in the family star zone, safely and long-lastingly.
Through old family connections, I slowly began to see another side of my parents and brothers that I had never known before.
…[Author’s note: Mr. Monet remained silent for nearly a minute.]
Hmm... To be honest, the new impressions of blood relatives I got from old friends in other families are completely different from the impressions in my memory.
The means my blood relatives used to control the family star field and social status were cold, decisive, and to a certain extent... violent and cruel. At the same time, they also used these means to preserve the continuation of the Ross family. During the period of the disintegration of the old alliance, the decisive and ruthless means allowed Ross to cut off its tail and survive, and saved the lives of the Ross Zerg during the short period of racial civil war, and preserved the important technological spark. Later, Ross split this spark and gave it to the newly established United Alliance, helping to give birth to the hope of the new era, the Prometheus Technology Main City. Even though the Ross family later faded out of the central power circle of the Alliance, Ross did not use his former shareholder status to force Prometheus to deliver new technology. Instead, he found other technological partners, retreated to the central axis area, and returned to the lifestyle of an old-school technological family; researching powerful technologies, conducting diplomacy through technology, and consolidating his status as a noble family.
My brothers and sisters are both cruel and deceitful, as well as tolerant and loving. The complexity of their personalities shocked me. But when the complex emotions and shock slowly subsided, a constant sadness spread in my heart again.
My parents who created my flesh and blood, my brother who is connected to me by blood, we were once close and friendly, from the same family and blood. But at that time, I was like a strange insect, piecing together the faces of my parents and brother from the mouths of other insects.
They loved me, I loved them, but they left me behind. They separated me gently, long before death.
Oh, please be at ease. Those were sorrows from many years ago, and I have long since gotten over them.
If I had the chance to meet them again, what would I say?
Well, give my brothers a few slaps first.
Just kidding.
But there should still be two lashes.
I got to know my brother from someone else’s mouth… He is not my brother, it disgusts me. If they were still alive, I would not see them for several years. I don’t like being deceived or being kept in the dark. I trust them, just like I trust my hands and eyes. Their deception will make me feel uncomfortable for a long time, and it will give me a bad impression of the female insect group.
But since they are dead, this hatred doesn’t count.]
[Please don’t write like this, Fate—the female insect brother who has a male insect brother at home is in big crisis!!!]
[…Help, my brother suddenly called me on video. Damn, I feel something is wrong…I just sent him a date invitation last time and the sub-female lieutenant colonel was hammered into the medical city and hospitalized for three months…It’s not Fate, you picked the capital’s allied insect tribe to fight!! Why are they attacking in groups!!] [?] [In reality, my second brother is by my side!]
@Fite: […
I gained a lot from that trip. I got to know my parents and brothers again from other people, and I saw the Ross family's thunderous means of dealing with the outside world in the past, and the consequences of its means in the ** star region... I fully witnessed the Ross family's legendary achievements, and more specifically understood how a huge technological family protects a family star region and suppresses hostile families, and the consequences and impacts of all negotiations... Well, it was from that time that I began to feel that, my God, I finally began to grow up, and I knew how to see the good and bad sides of this world more clearly, when to be tolerant and when to decisively deal with risks and threats. ]
[Alas. If the Ross family were still around, there would be no need for Monet Shagge to visit allied families one after another, and carefully learn how to face a class-conscious society by borrowing the fragments of light and shadow from other insects.]
[…]
[Speaking of which, I won't talk about the privileged families. Let's just talk about the ordinary high-class families with some assets and scientific and technological capabilities. Are they really willing to bring you into a real family education circle? To teach their own masters those insidious methods that can kill an entire small family, company, or scientific and technological institution in a matter of minutes?]
[…]
[Why does the family education method have to be aimed at killing the opponent? The Capital Alliance has wanted to kill Fate so many times. Look at the current situation. Fate is about to dismantle the Capital Alliance. What's wrong with teaching you to understand the reality of the world under the clouds? It's not a loss to let them be vigilant against the marriage-cheating bug tribe! I won't say more. I'm going to take the fastest route back to the family area to kneel down and apologize to my brother. ]

@Fite: […
Yes, that's right. The famous Ross teaching system was born out of my visits to all the families of my old friends.
Compared to conservative monopoly technology, only open source knowledge can breed vines and ladders for climbing up. Don't forget that the tech bug who wrote the original code of the Eye of Sibyl was a middle-class species from a distant galaxy, Wade Solo.]

@Fite: […
I admit that I was a little selfish at the time. After the Eye of Sibyl was fully implemented, I naturally gained the management rights of a large technology area in Prometheus, and became the Chief of Ross in Area 15 from a Ross Engineer.
A technological zone is a great source of influence.
I later put all the Ross technology into the Prometheus knowledge base for interns who applied to the Ross School District in District 15 to study. At first, my fellow old-school technocrats were almost crazy and called me an old-school traitor.
Then came the years, decades, until now.
Scientists known as the Roscoe faction are found throughout the Prometheus Tech District.
In the basic science and technology education institutions in the main city of the Alliance and the more than 100 habitable star zones, half of the instructors of science and technology enlightenment graduated from the 15th zone under my jurisdiction.
The Ross family perished in an engineering accident, but Ross Technology lives on in thousands of universities.
...Hmm? You still want to know how Bayliss proposed to me?
OK
When Baylis proposed to me, I had almost finished my tour of visiting old friends' families, and my last stop was the 17th District, where I met the Nosido gentlemen who lived there. I had a ten-year engagement contract with Nosido, so I naturally knew several of them.
I arrived in District 17, and my old friend Nosido gave me a small, secret party.
It was at that time that Bayliss rushed to District 17, recklessly broke into the confidential party, and found me chatting with old friends on the open-air balcony.
Yes, that's right. Who would have thought that the famous bug of the century would break into a castle?
What was the first sentence of our conversation?
Bayliss threatens me.]
【May I ask? 】
@Fite:
My tour itinerary was not kept secret, so if Belis wanted to check, he could certainly monitor my itinerary along the way.
I visited a large number of Ross's old friends and families that year, and the last stop was in the Nosido sector.
Belis thought that when I refused all the technology contribution award banquets awarded by the Alliance, I actually wanted to return to the more familiar old traditional environment in my heart. I went to District 17 to find Nosido because I wanted to re-establish a marriage relationship with the new generation of female insects in Nosido.
Well, it may also be because we were apart more often than together due to work in those years, and the number of times we met could be counted on one hand...I even said some provocative words to Belis during special periods.
Anyway, when Bayliss arrived, he was in the same state as if he had just crawled out of the ground.]
