Chapter 18 The whereabouts of Lan Cang
"You have been targeted by the Zerg. Stay with me and I will ensure your safety." Caesar looked at her seriously.
"I want to go back to the tribe and find someone." Sang Luo refused.
"...Who is it? Your beastly husband?" He said in a calm voice.
"Yeah." Sang Luo had no intention of hiding anything. Since Lan Cang had become her partner, he was her legitimate beast husband, her first beast husband!
Whether dead or alive, she would never forget him. Sang Luo thought of every little detail of their time together, and the bitterness in her heart came back.
Kaisar remained silent for a long time, but the two orcs at the door were sweating profusely. When the admiral showed this expression, it meant he was very unhappy, and the people on the other side would definitely not have a good outcome. Fortunately, he did not embarrass Sang Luo and whispered, "Are you, orcs from the Koldo tribe?"
"Um."
"I passed by that tribe, and it had long since fallen into ruins. There was no sign of life. The person you were looking for wasn't there."
Sang Luo lowered his head sadly. People always have some unrealistic fantasies when they are in desperate situations, but they have to face the reality. In such a dangerous situation, there is no possibility of survival for Lan Cang.
Perhaps it was the aftereffects of the recent nervous breakdown, or perhaps it was because of her emotions, but Sang Luo felt a tightness in her chest and a dizziness in her head. Caesar let her lie flat on the bed, "Rest well first. As for the Koldo tribe... this beast tide outbreak is very unusual and has also attracted the attention of the Empire. I will leave some people in the Ruble Forest area to wait and see. If anything happens, I will let you know as soon as possible. How about that?"
"...Okay." Sang Luo finally felt relieved. She held his departing hand and moved her lips, "Thank you, Caesar."
"It's just a small matter."
His voice was intoxicating and alluring. "Have a good sleep. We'll be home soon."
Sang Luo fell asleep quickly.
Caesar asked everyone else to leave first.
…
Half a day later.
Caesar brought Sang Luo to a villa with a garden and recorded her facial features and pupils. From then on, she could enter and leave the villa freely.
Sang Luo looked at everything along the way, and the amazement in his heart never stopped. The Kordo tribe looked like a remote modern rural village, while the road construction planning in the city of the Western Continent was very similar to that of a modern metropolis in the 21st century, or even more developed.
There are many sweeping robots everywhere on the road, and all kinds of strange beasts... no, orcs, engaging in speed and passion on the road.
Prosperous and developed, living and working in peace and contentment.
No sin, no filth, no dirt...
No wonder Lan Cang said that the Western Continent is the most technologically advanced continent among the four continents. Living in the city is much happier than living in the tribe. Why did he leave at that time?
"Do you like it here?" After returning home, Caesar changed into a black and gold robe that outlined his slender waist, looking gorgeous and elegant.
Sang Luo looked back at him. His belt was not completely tied, but lazily opened. The man's Adam's apple rolled while he spoke, which was so sexy that it made people's nose bleed.
She couldn't take her eyes off him, and her body reacted instinctively. She had to admit, this man was truly handsome, Lan Cang couldn't compare to him.
This place is indeed very good, Sang Luo affirmed in his heart.
Even in modern times, she couldn't live in such a large villa. The Imperial Admiral was indeed very wealthy.
But she had to leave sooner or later, so she didn't answer the question. She touched her stomach and said a little embarrassedly, "I'm a little hungry. Is there anything to eat?"
Kaiser came out of the kitchen, carrying a few bottles. "What flavor of nutrient solution do you like?"
“…” Sang Luo thought she had misheard. She hesitated for a moment, then randomly picked a bottle of nutrient solution and took a few sips. It had a strawberry flavor and tasted okay.
Do the orcs in the Western Continent eat these things?
She missed Lan Cang even more. Thinking of his life or death still unknown, Sang Luo sighed again.
Seeing that she had no appetite, Caesar remembered the special physique of his own. He had been taking nutrient solution since he was very young and had almost forgotten what normal food tasted like.
Although nutrient solution is more scientific and healthy for the body to absorb, most people still prefer more primitive cooking methods.
Females are even more picky about food.
Kaisar took Sang Luo out for a normal meal.
"How about trying this?" Caesar cut a piece of steak for her.
Sang Luo accepted all the food he offered. The grilled lamb chops were a little overcooked and smelled a bit smelly. It seemed that the Western Continent paid more attention to technology and was casual about other things.
The grilled fish was quite good, the meat was tender and fresh, and her mouth was so full that she looked like a little hamster.
Caesar was afraid that she would choke, so he poured her another glass of juice.
On the other hand, he didn't touch the food in front of him at all and just watched her eat. How cute.
Sang Luo felt embarrassed by what he saw, but she hadn't eaten much in the past two days, and her stomach was very empty. She said nervously, "Well, you won't mind me eating too much, will you? Don't worry, I have beast crystals! I'll treat you to this meal!"
"Need not."
When the bill came, he had already paid.
The two of them walked around the city again, bought some daily necessities and clothes, and returned home before dusk. The light computer on Caesar's wrist rang.
"I have to go out for something and will be back soon."
After Caesar left, Sang Luo was not idle either. He familiarized himself with the room, went to the study, and automatically opened the door by recognizing the pupils.
The interior of the study is comparable to a small library, with various collections of books clearly classified.
Sang Luo found a book called "A Brief Account of Interstellar Chronicles", which was only one finger thick.
In the year 20XX, a virus broke out that swept the world...
In 2XXX AD, Blue Planet was plunged into an energy crisis. Glaciers melted, tsunamis occurred frequently, hurricanes swept across the continent, and food production plummeted...
【……】
In 34XX AD, scientists unexpectedly discovered that by fusing human and animal genes, altering the DNA arrangement on... cells could still differentiate and divide...
[In 37XX AD, the first experimental subject survived for three months before dying...]
In 4XXX AD, humans successfully bred genetically modified orc warriors... and proposed a planetary migration plan...
One year into the Star Calendar, the planetary migration plan was launched. We found a new place to live and named it Restart Planet... but we encountered an even greater crisis...
[In the XXXX year of the Star Calendar, we...the Void Divine Beast...]
Close the book.
Her guess was confirmed.
This world is indeed related to the original world.
It is the world a million years from now!
The environment of Blue Planet became increasingly harsh, and many natural and man-made disasters broke out. The survival of mankind had long been in jeopardy, until a crisis broke out on Earth that was enough to exterminate the entire human race. Human scientists at the time used human genes and beast genes to create a new species of orcs, attempting to resist the crisis through brave and powerful orc warriors, but unfortunately, mankind was ultimately unable to resist extinction.
The genetically evolved orcs inherited human civilization and technology, migrated out of the Earth which had become a desert, and searched for another planet rich in resources and suitable for survival, which was the Restart Planet under her feet.
The landscape and climate of Restart Planet are very similar to those of Earth, but its area is nearly ten times larger than that of Earth, and it is home to tens of billions of orcs.
However, pure humans have long since completely disappeared and have become ancient humans that only exist in history books.
She won't be sent for biopsy research, right?
Sang Luo took a deep breath and couldn't calm down for a long time. She decided to hide her identity. She was not in the mood to read on. Seeing that it was getting late, she went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After Caesar left the door, he was greeted by a sturdy leopard orc. He was one of his most trusted subordinates, responsible for information gathering.
Kaiser asked, "What has she been through in the past two months?"
Leon handed over the information. "We can't trace this noblewoman's past origins and identity. We only know that more than two months ago, she escaped from an asylum near the Ruble Forest, fell off a cliff and became unconscious, and was taken in by the Koldo Tribe."
"Your Highness does have a wolf companion in that tribe."
“…” Caesar lowered his head and looked through the documents.
Seeing that he looked calm and not angry, Leon continued, "But you can rest assured, General. The beast tide in the Ruble Forest was indeed large in scale. Most of the orcs of the Koldo tribe died in the beast tide. The wolf beast also disappeared in the beast tide. It's in great danger. It's probably already..."
Leon put it very tactfully. The lower-level orcs have low talents and weak strength, and it is impossible for them to survive the beast tide.
"I didn't hear anything about the follow-up of the beast tide from the military. I only heard that a seventh-level peak star beast appeared in the Ruble Forest, which led to the demise of almost all nearby tribes." Caesar said.
"According to our latest measurements, that star beast isn't at the peak of Rank Seven...it's already broken through Rank Seven and is now halfway to the King rank!"
Kaisar paused. Unexpectedly, such a high-level star beast appeared in such a remote place. His eyes were filled with a hint of interest. "Where is that half-king star beast now?"
A star beast of the half-king level is hard to come by. With his current strength, ordinary crystal cores cannot provide any help. This half-king level beast crystal is just right.
"The remaining energy of the Star Beast has dissipated. The search team discovered the corpse of the Star Beast King yesterday morning, and the beast crystal has been dug out." Leon turned on the computer. "...There are two videos. My Lord, would you like to see them?"
A virtual light screen appeared.
A huge star beast like a turtle and a snake was about hundreds of meters tall. Every step it took shook the earth. Behind it was a dark group of beasts, thousands of them, like a swarm of locusts, and wherever it passed, everything was reduced to ruins.
The orcs from all the major tribes fled for their lives, except for a young black-haired orc who had not yet retreated. However, he was outnumbered and obviously no match for the giant beast. He was like an ant in front of it and could be beaten into a pulp with just one palm.
He was obviously exhausted, and he tore off the almost broken collar around his neck. The number of beast patterns on his arms increased sharply, with seven extremely dark purple patterns. Then, he transformed into a beast, a huge black wolf with golden lightning wrapped around its body, and rushed into the beast tide!
At the same time, the sky and the earth shook, and low black clouds carrying countless golden lightning bolts struck down!
Fight a desperate battle with the Star Beast King.
The Star Beast King was obviously stronger than the orc, but the orc could not be killed no matter how hard he fought. In the end, he almost had only his last breath left, and he managed to kill the Star Beast King by force.
Thunder talent.
It is still the Golden Thunder type with the strongest attack power.
Kaisar's eyes narrowed slightly as he remembered something. "Which tribe does this wolf beast belong to?"
"According to our investigation, the Lubel Forest has never produced an orc of this level before. They are probably not native to the Lubel Forest." Leon has been with Caesar for so many years and has a good understanding of his thoughts. He immediately said, "This wolf beast is probably not the noble female's partner. I sent people to investigate. Her partner was just an ordinary wolf beast from the Koldo tribe. This wolf beast is a mutant thunder cloud wolf. They are not the same person."
"I don't think so."
There is also a video.
After the wolf beast killed the star beast king, it immediately dug out the beast crystal. Without even taking a breath, it dragged its wounded body and ran back to the ruins of the Koldo tribe.
It seemed to be looking for something anxiously, digging up every piece of ruins of the collapsed houses. Its already trembling claws were covered in blood. As time passed, its mood became more and more depressed and manic. It searched through the nearby ruins, but only found countless unrecognizable corpses.
It howled sadly to the sky, then lay down on the highest pile of rocks in the ruins, waited quietly for three days and three nights, and then left.
Leon was very surprised. "The instrument detected that its frenzy value exceeded 80. It should be out of control, but it seems to have retained a trace of rationality and didn't forget to look for people. It's different from other orcs who have gone crazy and out of control."
"Where is he now?"
"That wolf beast acted very cautiously, unlike ordinary tribal orcs. Instead, it acted like a trained military hero with strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities. It quickly discovered our personnel, shook off the search team, and disappeared along with the beast tide."
"Oh, there's one more thing. Our people found the collar dropped by the wolf beast at the ruins. On it... there's the logo of the Star Organization." Leon took out a sealed bag.
Caesar put on white leather gloves and took out the broken collar from the sealed bag.
The dorsal side of the neck ring is marked with three broken stars.
This is the organizational symbol of the largest rebel group in the Empire - the Stars.
Leon said, "This wolf beast is very likely related to the rebels!"
Caesar said nothing, but twisted the collar with his fingers, leaving some black blood stains on them.
He took off his gloves and handed them to Leon.
"Take it for testing."
"good."
"Those people sent to the Ruble Forest don't need to come back for the time being. They should continue to stay there and report to me immediately if they encounter any situation, especially those related to the Kordo tribe and the whereabouts of the wolf beast." Caesar was still a little worried.
After taking a shower, Sang Luo changed into a long-sleeved ice silk mist blue bathrobe, poured a glass of fruit wine, and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
Her frizzy black hair was wet and draped over her thin white shoulders, making her skin look even whiter than snow. Her palm-sized face was charming and attractive, and her red lips were rosy and seductive.
As soon as Caesar came back, he smelled the crazy moisture in the air. His eyes fell on her, and gradually became hot. "This dress suits you very well."
"Did you prepare this for me in advance?"
"Well, do you like it?"
