109. She is mine
"When the time is right, you will know everything." Victor still gave an ambiguous answer.
Huo Jie said sarcastically, "From the beginning, she was my fiancée, wasn't she? You ignored her will and forcibly arranged her life. Don't tell me you did it just to protect her."
"Why not?" Victor asked.
"You're not that great." Huo Jie knew his father too well.
In other words, anyone who can sit in this position has long lost any unnecessary kindness in their hearts.
The interests of the empire are paramount, and anyone and anything can be used and sacrificed for this purpose.
Just like his birth, it was never motivated by "love." Every moment of his life was meticulously planned, solely to create the most perfect weapon to protect the empire and humanity.
Similarly, what about Su Liu?
How will Victor use her incredible power and her strange compatibility with the strange factor?
Faced with his son's aggressive questioning, Victor still chose to avoid it.
"If Mingzhu hadn't asked me to do that, I would have made the most of her. However, I owe Mingzhu a favor."
In the letter, his former comrade had humbly begged him to protect Su Liu. Furthermore, Su Liu's research value had been completely drained.
Instead of returning to that kind of place, it is better to let her grow freely in the vast world, use the knowledge that has been passed down for thousands of years, and continue to bring great benefits to mankind.
"In short, it's exactly as you said. From the very beginning, Liuliu wasn't Ansel's fiancée." Victor continued, ignoring his son's cold gaze. "The forces that covet Liuliu will be powerful and treacherous. Ansel won't be able to protect her."
Huo Jie, the imperial general.
Huo Jie is a weapon used to slaughter alien species.
He has always been the best person to protect Su Liu. Regardless of his power and status or his own abilities, he can escort Su Liu from the huge storm that is about to arise to the end of the world.
"On the day of your wedding, I'll tell you everything you want to know." Victor beckoned, "Use all your might to seduce her. Ah, pursue Liuliu, make her fall in love with you, and then come to me to claim your reward."
Huo Jie: “…”
He looked calmly at his father who looked a little excited.
Why would the former Grand Marshal of the Empire be such a thing?
Victor hadn't realized his son was on the verge of losing his temper, so he continued to instigate, "It's just that Liuliu is still too young. You should first clear out all the suitors around her so that she only sees you. After all, you have no experience in pursuing love, and as a father, I really..."
Before he could finish his words, Victor noticed that the table in front of him was shaking.
Soon, not only the table, but all the objects in the room began to float upwards.
He held the table. "Everything in the study is precious. You..."
boom--
The most powerful psychic in human history is unstoppable, even by the equally powerful former Imperial Marshal.
Three seconds later, the entire building collapsed and turned into ruins.
Vincent, who just got home from get off work: "..."
ah.
The ancestral home that has suffered many disasters.
A colorful prodigal.
In the room, Su Liu woke up from his dream again, and his confused mind became much clearer.
Huo Jie didn't know how long he had been sitting beside the bed.
Su Liu called out weakly, "Admiral."
Huo Jie raised his eyes, and emerald green flowed in his eyes.
"I can't do it well." He gently stroked Su Liu's forehead, and there was a feeling in his tone that Su Liu couldn't understand.
Are you upset?
Or a little guilt?
"Admiral, why are you feeling guilty towards me?" Su Liu didn't understand.
She hadn't even thanked the admiral yet, so why did he look so ashamed? "Nothing," Huo Jie changed the subject and handed her the jasmine green tea on the bedside table. "Selina said this is the tea you baked, and it's really good."
Looking at the clear, pale yellow tea in the cup, Su Liu said helplessly, "Admiral, normal people wouldn't give tea to a weak patient."
"Really?" The admiral said that he had never been weak before and didn't quite understand.
Su Liu slowly sat up and took the tea that Huo Jie had brewed himself.
It is very fragrant and the temperature of the tea is just right, so you can savor it slowly.
She was drinking when she heard Huo Jie ask, "What do you think of me?"
"ah?"
Huo Jie said, "At least compared to Ansel, what am I like in your eyes?"
"Admiral." Su Liu said in a heavy tone.
"Um?"
"Please don't compare yourself to a creature like Ansel, he is not worthy." Su Liu said solemnly.
Huo Jie was amused by her tone, but the melancholy in his eyes did not dissipate much.
Perhaps due to a combination of innate and acquired factors, his emotions are more indifferent than those of normal people.
As for family affection, he felt more from Vincent because he spent a long time with him in his childhood.
He has no experience in friendship at all. He doesn't have any friends in his life and has no way to make contact with them.
As for love, it is like the moon in the water and the flower in the mirror, which I have never experienced.
If it is true as Victor said that he must protect Su Liu, what kind of feelings can he give to Su Liu?
Huo Jie was confused about this for a long time, but now, looking at Su Liu's innocent and clear eyes like a deer, his heavy mood improved a little.
He seemed to be comforting himself, rubbing Su Liu's head and talking to himself: "Take your time, there will always be a way."
Su Liu had no idea what he was so anxious about. He shook his head and said, "Admiral, the tea is spilled."
Under the moonlight, Victor dug out an inconspicuous silver cup from the ruined study.
Open the bottom of the cup and you will find a folded letter inside.
He slowly stroked the words above, as if he saw his former comrades standing in front of him, begging earnestly.
"Please help me take care of Liuliu. She is the only thing that matters to me in this failed life."
"Liuliu is not an ordinary interstellar human. She is an ancient human from over a thousand years ago, used for experiments at the time, the first generation of mother."
"That experiment, which you and I are both familiar with, is still being conducted in modern times. Liuliu was accidentally taken away by an alien species during the chaos, and I rescued her. However, during the fierce battle, the capsule containing her was thrown into the river."
"I rescued her from the river, gave her an ordinary identity, and sent her to an orphanage as a way of atonement for humanity. But I never expected that after all these twists and turns, she would become my daughter."
The word "experiment" made Victor close his eyes.
The emergence of strange factors actually dates back much longer than historical records.
It is also not produced by the explosion of stars in the universe as is well known to interstellar people.
Instead, it was discovered and activated by humans on Earth from ancient icebergs, inadvertently causing this unprecedented disaster.
Scientists at that time accidentally discovered during their research that the "strange factor" could cause some lower animals and plants to mutate.
Some exploded and died, while others evolved at an insane speed.
They suddenly had an idea: if the strange factor was injected into the human body, could they, through research intervention, create the "super-powered people" in the novel as their country's secret weapon of the human body?
