Chapter 79: Memories (Part 1)
Ivana's energy flowed into her body along Anno's beam of light.
As soon as she entered, she felt Anona's energy surging wildly within her body. She tried to soothe it with her own energy, but her energy showed great resistance after coming into contact with Anona's energy.
Like a wounded and restless wild beast, she will attack anyone who tries to approach her.
Evena's energy was attacked by Anno's energy, and she was jerked away from Anno's light band as if she had been electrocuted.
"What's wrong?"
Tang Ting and Logan looked at Eve with surprise when they saw her actions.
Eve looked down at her hands. The energy of the fire seed was always used to help alien and beast species improve their genetic abilities, or to purify or restore them. No fire seed had ever shown any aggression.
This energy contained extremely painful emotions, and her spirit was overwhelmed by these emotions, causing her to suffer as well.
"Ivana, why are you crying?"
Lokin watched as Eve sat there, looking dazed, tears streaming down her face.
She picked up a tissue from the table and wiped away Evena's tears. "Is there something wrong with the baby's energy? Please don't scare me."
Eve exhaled slowly, adjusted her energy, and suppressed the painful emotions. "Baby's energy is a bit special. Her energy is very aggressive, and there's something else about it that I can't quite put my finger on. I'll investigate further."
Ivana spoke calmly, but inwardly she was astonished.
Why would a three-year-old child contain such painful emotions in his/her energy?
The pain was transmitted to her simultaneously, only weakening and not intensifying. She, an adult, felt immense pain, her heart throbbing with each beat. As the vessel for this pain, she would only suffer even more.
Hearing what Eve said, Tang Ting and Luo Jin felt even more worried. They looked at Anno, who was sleeping peacefully due to the effects of the medication, but her pale complexion made her look as fragile as if she would break at the slightest touch.
After adjusting the energy in her body, Evena used her purification ability directly. Her light bands shimmered with a soft glow, and the energy instantly covered Anno's entire body, gradually calming down the aggressive and frenzied energy within Anno's body.
After Anno's energy calmed down, Evena was finally able to explore her energy, see what it contained, and find the root of her pain.
Ivana followed the agonizing energy from Anno into her consciousness, and the instant she entered, she sank into darkness.
She was pulled into Anno's memories.
It was dark all around, but she could touch the “walls” around her, which were warm and damp, as if she were in a small container.
Ivana then realized that her consciousness was attached to the baby, and she was looking at the baby's memories through the baby's body.
What is this container holding the baby?
She didn't sense any fear in the baby; at that moment, the baby felt safe and even curious.
The baby kept touching the wall that enveloped her, trying to get out.
She heard noises coming from outside.
"The core has been successfully extracted, Your Majesty. We need to move the little queen insect, otherwise the insectoids will find us through her energy."
"It's too dangerous to move now that things are so chaotic outside, Your Majesty. Let's think of another way."
"The Little Queen Worm and the Fire Seed have fused very well. She is already a Fire Seed spawn in our Northern River System. Placing her with the extinguished core of the previous Queen Worm can temporarily conceal her energy. Our research institute is close to developing a gene lock that can cover up her insectoid aura. Let's wait a little longer."
"We can't wait any longer! The extinguished core of the King Seed is only enough to cover the core energy of the Little King Worm. Leaving her there will only enhance her energy. If the Zerg discovers her, our North River system will suffer their wrath. They will definitely launch a war to attack us. Your Majesty, the Interstellar Alliance is now torn apart. At this time, we must protect ourselves."
"But she's still a child! She's about to hatch, and there's war everywhere outside. Are you just going to take a child into the dangerous flames of war like this? You've already taken her core and taken her away from her home, and now you can't even give her a home? When did our North River system get to the point where we have to rely on a child to survive?"
"Hailier! Now is not the time for your excessive benevolence! Without her core, all of our sparks will perish! We're just temporarily taking her to hide somewhere else. Someone will take good care of her. From now on, she will be our spark. Once her Zerg aura is properly concealed, we can bring her back, won't that be the same?"
"I disagree!"
"With His Majesty here, it's not your place to speak!"
"It's not my turn to speak, so who is?! I say I disagree, and that's final! I'm the commander of the First Legion, who are you?!"
"I'm the head of the Inspectorate! Hailier, don't think you're the only one with a high rank here. Show me some respect!"
"What, you think you can do anything to me? I'd like to see if you can take the badge off my shoulder!"
"Do you think I can do it for you?"
"Your Majesty, please make a decision quickly!"
"His Majesty......"
"His Majesty......"
Ivana heard the clear sounds of arguing outside, and her consciousness was shaken by these sounds, leaving her unable to recover for a long time.
At this moment, she finally understood why the Chief Executive was so concerned about the baby, asking about every little thing about her, and even choosing a name for her in advance.
It turns out, the little one wasn't a spark at all, but a little queen bug of the Zerg!
They actually extracted the baby's core.
Ivana's expression was a mixture of shock, anger, and some other emotion.
Her body was trembling slightly. Tang Ting and Luo Jin, who were standing nearby, thought something had happened and kept checking on Anuo's condition. They were relieved to see that the medical instruments showed that everything was normal.
Ivana listened to their argument for a long time until a crisp sound rang out, and the argument gradually faded away until it fell silent.
She saw a glimmer of light appear before her; the baby's shell had broken.
Several cracks spread out, and the shell on her head was removed.
Through the baby's body, she saw it stretch its head upwards, making babyish sounds. Two tentacles emitting a faint glow first extended out; those were the baby's light bands. It had fused with the Fireseed's genes and transformed from an insectoid into a Fireseed.
A familiar face appeared before her; it was Aled.
