After listening to Shivalena's narration, Wang Teng finally understood the whole story.
Sylvarena was originally a high-ranking Protoss of Alfheim and the second princess of the ruling royal family in the Protoss Empire. She was given the name Morning Star, which means the proud sun.
She also has other brothers and sisters, five in total, who were once considered to be the next ruling king.
There is no Protoss King in the Protoss Empire. In the early days, the Protoss of Alfheim were divided into different types according to their habitat.
For example, those who live in the forest are forest spirits.
Those who live in cliffs and surrounded by mountains are mountain star spirits.
The ones near the sea are called sea star spirits.
Those who live in underground caves are the dark star spirits...
Of course, there is also the ruling royal family that Shivalenna belongs to, which are wind star spirits and make a living by hunting.
A long time ago, the Protoss were just a weak clan, similar to early ancient humans, and lived a life of eating raw meat and drinking blood.
But tens of millions of years ago, a meteorite fell on Alfheim, changing the entire planet and them drastically.
The forests where they live have grown three times taller and their coverage area has increased more than six times. The oxygen content in the planet's gas has increased dramatically. Ordinary humans who have not adapted to high-oxygen environments will immediately become oxygen intoxicated if they enter here, and in severe cases, they may even die.
The most important thing is that a huge tree grew from the meteorite, blocking out the sky and emitting weak radiation fluctuations. It does not cause much harm to organisms, but it continuously changes the organisms' physiques and cells.
It was after the appearance of that tree that the Protoss truly became Protoss, possessing a strong physique and...wisdom. The development of Protoss technology began with this tree.
The Protoss considered the tree sacred and built outposts and walls around it to defend against other intruders.
In order to fight for the ownership of the sacred tree, all the Protoss broke out in the first civil war.
There were countless casualties, and the corpses of the Protoss were scattered around the sacred tree.
Such killing continued for a long time until a Protoss named "Morning Star" appeared. He led his followers and mediated the civil war between the Protoss.
"How did he do it?" Wang Teng interrupted Xivalena's narration.
"Defeat all the Protoss." Xivalenna answered as a matter of course.
Wang Teng couldn't help but applaud the star spirit named "Morning Star".
This is really the most direct and effective method.
What then?
Morning Star did not kill any of the Star Spirits. He demanded that he be the one to distribute the ownership of the sacred tree.
Since all the Protoss want to be close to the Holy Tree, then we should unite all the Protoss and establish a city federation where all the Protoss can live together, so that every Protoss can live under the Holy Tree.
This proposal was unanimously agreed upon by the Protoss.
But who will run the city?
Morning Star proposed that the ruling party should be responsible for management, and each tribe should elect elders to form a council of elders to supervise.
After discussion, Chenxing was finally elected as the first ruler.
With everyone's joint efforts, the Protoss Holy City was born, and the Protoss Town Federation was established on it.
In order to avoid the secession of city-states, the ruler was changed to the ruling king, and the Council of Elders was upgraded to the Senate.
In order to prevent the other from becoming too powerful, each tribe proposed that the bloodline of Morning Star should inherit the throne.
This is the origin of the ruling royal family.
And Sylvarena, who is named Morning Star, is the candidate for the ruling king.
"If you're a candidate for the ruling king, why did you end up working as a black miner in Skyline?"
Wang Teng looked at Xivalena standing in front of him, his calm eyes were like a pool of stagnant water.
Although he asked this, he already had a guess in his mind.
Sylvarena had said before that she was dead, but she was standing in front of him alive. So the "death" in this sentence should refer to Sylvarena's identity as a star spirit.
"Alfheim is located on the border of the American Alliance star field, bordering the Great Sun Empire star field, and is also close to the Lionheart Empire..."
When mentioning these three forces, anger and hatred were revealed in Xivalena's eyes.
"They are all allies of the Star Alliance, yet they attacked the Protoss Empire, which is also an ally of the Star Alliance."
"Are you sure?" Wang Teng couldn't help but ask back. If that were the case, a second Covenant War might break out.
But now is not the early stage. Once the war breaks out, the scope of influence will be the entire Star Alliance.
But the Star Alliance did not release any news in this regard. Either the news was suppressed, or Shivalenna was lying.
"Without direct evidence, they won't do anything under their own banner." Xivalena shook her head.
"So, you came here to find evidence?"
Shivalena shook her head again.
"How much do you know about the MIA Group?"
"MIA is a product promoted by some interest groups."
Wang Teng instantly understood what it meant. That is to say, the three forces used a shell identity to plunder the Protoss Empire in secret.
"you mean..."
Shivalena nodded. "That's a company that only exists in the Alfheim system. Their main business is selling and capturing Protoss. The company is called Star Chaser."
Wang Teng was a little surprised, "Selling star spirits?"
He learned from the information that the Protoss have a particularly protective racial concept.
Wasn’t the guy who sold Protoss crushed by the Protoss Empire’s fleet?
As if noticing Wang Teng's surprise, Xivalena explained, "I was once the commander of the Silver Star Fleet of the Protoss Empire."
Wang Teng had guessed about this. After all, she was the second princess of the ruling royal family. If she didn't have some strength, she would not be able to hold on to this position.
But the process of falling from a fleet commander to a black miner must be extremely tortuous, right?
"After discovering that someone was capturing and trafficking Protoss, I immediately launched an investigation."
"I soon had an idea."
"...those slavers were flying the flag of the Protoss Empire."
Wang Teng immediately looked at her. This was interesting. There were actually people from within the Star Spirit community involved in arresting those who trafficked the Star Spirits.
Or is it that people are cruel to each other?
"There's a mole."
"Um..."
Xivalenna looked lonely. Yes, she never expected that there would be Protoss involved in the trafficking of Protoss. This made the concepts that she had been instilled with since childhood collapse in an instant.
But her responsibility as a princess still made her cheer up.
In order to prevent Xing Ling from suffering this crime again, she decided to find out the person behind the scenes.
But the development of things was beyond her expectations.
When she was encircling the Star Chaser's slave ship, she actually received an impeachment from the Senate, forcing her to give up the investigation.
Despite this, Xivalena persisted.
During the ongoing siege, she discovered the Star Chaser's base and immediately led the fleet there, but what was waiting for her there was the joint fleet of three countries.
While fighting against the coalition forces, her former subordinates stabbed her in the back.
She still remembered the look in the other person's eyes when he looked at her. It was filled with guilt, nervousness, and a bit of excitement, but not the slightest bit of regret.
"Your Highness Xivalena, please don't blame me. It's your fault for blocking others' way."
