Chapter 318
The experiment was naturally discontinued; the researchers all looked reluctant and hesitated to proceed.
Those were the most perfect life forms in the world, and they simply couldn't bear to destroy them.
Even the slightest scratch on it can cause heartache so intense it's hard to breathe.
Finally, Sophie took Rong Rong away, not returning her to the room where she had been imprisoned, but to her own room.
His room was fully furnished and much more comfortable.
Sophie placed Rong Rong on her bed, where she was almost completely buried under the blankets.
Sophie gently touched Rong Rong's almost disheveled hair, her hand trembling slightly as it touched Rong Rong's cheek, moving with great care.
It felt like touching the most precious treasure in the world, fearing that the slightest carelessness would shatter it on the spot.
Rong Rong's hair, which had been cut short, grew back to shoulder length, making her look even more gentle and well-behaved.
Sophie stared blankly at Rong Rong, at that exquisite face that had captivated him until now, and her heart softened beyond belief.
Now he finally understood why Morton and Simon were willing to live peacefully together, just to stay by Rong Rong's side.
Simply because Rong Rong is worthy.
At this moment, Sophie was extremely grateful that she had the foresight to not reveal Rong Rong's identity to others.
It's no wonder that Turs betrayed humanity; even he wanted to find a compromise to eliminate the threat posed by the Zerg to humanity without harming Rong Rong.
Thinking of this, Sophie suddenly realized that Rong Rong didn't seem to have summoned any Zerg since she arrived here.
Did the Zerg become extinct? Or did they know he was monitoring her ultrasound and didn't want to reveal the Zerg's location?
However, it doesn't matter anymore. He won't let the Zerg find Rong Rong, and he won't give Rong Rong any chance to leave this place.
Sophie gently stroked Rong Rong's sleeping face, her gaze tender and affectionate.
Just as Sophie was enjoying the tranquility of the room, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded in the air.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The electronic voice kept broadcasting the message, and Sophie's eyes narrowed. She quickly got up to check the situation.
He had just stepped out of the base gate when he saw Morton overturn his men.
"You captured Rong Rong?" Morton's voice was sharp, his whole body radiating murderous intent.
His once jet-black eyes were now bloodshot.
Three days have passed since Rong Rong disappeared. Although it's not a long time, every minute and every second is torture for Morton.
Sophie chuckled gently, "Why are you the only one here? Where's Simon?"
Morton remained silent. Simon? Simon had also disappeared; Morton hadn't seen him since yesterday morning.
They were originally looking for Rong Rong together, but after Simon disappeared, Morton was left all alone.
Sophie understood Morton's meaning and shook her head in disappointment, "How heartless! Are you really going to abandon Rong Rong and leave her alone?"
Rong Rong really should see just how cold-hearted Simon can be!
Sophie appeared regretful and disappointed, but her voice betrayed an undeniable joy.
Isn't Rong Rong the closest and best friend of Simon?
Now that Simon has treated Rong Rong like this, disappearing when she was in trouble and needed help the most, he doesn't believe Rong Rong will still have feelings for Simon.
Having easily dealt with the enemy who annoyed her the most, Sophie was in a great mood.
At this moment, he finally realized that he had long been in love with Rong Rong. Before, he thought that his roommate was messing around to disgust him.
Actually, no, he was angry because of the special relationship between Simon and Rong Rong.
Now, he only has one enemy left: Morton.
As for Turs?
Tulls himself, along with his entire squad, has been sent to a federal prison by Sophie.
The charge, of course, is treason.
As the son of the president, he still enjoys certain privileges.
Sophie chuckled and launched a direct attack on Morton. Once he eliminated Morton, Rong Rong would be his alone.
He wouldn't be a weakling and join others in protecting Rong Rong.
Morton didn't waste any words.
The two exchanged over a thousand blows, their mental blades leaving the surrounding buildings and plants in ruins.
This was the first time the two had faced off directly; they hadn't encountered each other during the assessment on Sera Star.
Sophie was still bothered by her second-place finish.
Now, he feels it's time to prove himself.
Both men were deadly, and soon they were covered in wounds, blood splattering everywhere, but neither of them cared.
In the end, Morton came out on top.
Sophie realized he was no match for Morton, but he didn't want to admit defeat.
"Hand over Rong Rong!" Morton pressed Sophie against the wall, his mental blade already slicing through Sophie's neck, and thin streams of bright red blood flowed down, quickly staining Sophie's front.
Even so, Sophie remained calm, smiling nonchalantly, "So what if I don't hand it over? Do you dare let General Byron know about Rong Rong's existence?"
Do you dare to release Rong Rong's information and let the entire Federation know?
You wouldn't dare!
You can only rely on yourself!
You can't beat me alone."
Unlike Sophie, Morton had established his own power early on, with the support of his father.
But Morton grew up completely unchecked, and General Byron's influence could only be used by him after he entered the military.
Morton tightened his grip on Sophie's neck, saying, "I can kill you right now!"
"In that case, my people will immediately publish Rong Rong's information online. Do you think you'll still have anywhere to hide then?"
Sophie was not afraid at all, and even looked at Morton with a defiant gaze.
Even though his life was now in Morton's hands, he remained as elegant as ever.
Morton fell completely silent. He knew Sophie was right; there was nothing he could do.
Perhaps he could take Rong Rong and wander the universe?
But Morton quickly dismissed the idea.
He couldn't escape the federal government's pursuit.
In the end, Morton let Sophie go.
Sophie's smile grew wider and wider.
"I won't give up!" Morton said, and left.
Sophie knew the matter wasn't over, so that night she took Rong Rong and left the base, moving to a new location.
That was his private planet, inhabited only by a few primitive life forms, whose purpose was to enrich the planet's ecosystem.
There is only one castle left on the planet, where Sophie and Rongrong live.
When Rong Rong woke up again, she was met with Sophie's gentle smile right next to her.
What should have been a warm smile appeared sinister and terrifying to Rong Rong.
Rong Rong instinctively threw out her mental blade, but nothing happened; her mental power had been suppressed.
Rong Rong was shocked and hid in the corner of the bed, avoiding Sophie like the plague.
Sophie's eyes dimmed, and the smile on her lips faded slightly.
"Don't be afraid, no one will hurt you again. Get up and see if you like this place."
Sophie naturally got up and stood by the bed. Sunlight streamed in through the window, bathing Sophie in a golden glow.
At first glance, he really looks like a prince from a fairy tale.
The room in front of us and the view outside the window are just like the castle in a fairy tale.
The bright sunlight, in particular, made the whole room feel warm and dreamy.
Of course, the most dreamy one is Rong Rong wearing a princess dress on the bed.
She possesses mythical beauty and noble Eastern blood.
A beauty from the ancient East.
Sophie was stunned by what she saw and remained deeply moved for a long time.
Rong Rong, however, had no time to pay attention to anything else, and only cast her hateful and disgusted gaze at Sophie.
That gaze pierced Sophie's heart.
