Chapter 126 Choose Endless
"Whether he 'confessed' or not, and how much he confessed, is between us."
"It's none of your business."
"I agree with his idea very much," Su Xi said calmly, "If we want to talk about the connection, the relationship between him and the mother LY368 is due to his risking his life to give birth to her."
"And I don't have even half a cell of connection with you."
"Then you are wrong. The bond of blood inheritance is unbreakable, even if Fitz never calls her 'mother' in public——"
"Fitz?" Su Xi interrupted her rudely. Her experience in the genetic memory of LY368 made her extremely disgusted with this Marlaena: "Marlaena, you have no right and no qualifications to call him by his nickname."
"Why am I not qualified?" The bound 'Marena' gradually gave up the struggle and tried to find a way to escape with words. "He has one-fifth of my blood. If you want to obtain the most orthodox recognition of the royal family--"
"If you just let me go, I will make all the opposition in Yindu disappear!"
"Oh?" Su Xi's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked nonchalantly, "Even if you are the queen, in this society where 'A power is supreme', what do you, as an omega, rely on? How can you utter such arrogant words?"
Marlaina began to get anxious. She knew very well that the situation was reversed now. If she couldn't impress Su Xi, she would never be able to go back.
What awaits her in the real world is a miserable and brain-dead end.
This time, she had prepared Lan Ya's body to serve as her new 'body container' in case of an accident.
But she never expected that in the world of 'pure consciousness', this omega's mental and physical strength was so strong! As a 3S-level rare species, she still needed time to condense into a human form bit by bit...
And she can actually mobilize insects across dimensions!
Marlaina made up her mind and extended her olive branch. She said: "My support is not the 'position of queen', but the agent of UFO. We are an O-power organization that has been passed down for thousands of years..."
She continued to seduce him, "You have great qualifications, why do you have to rely on an alpha?"
"Wouldn't it be nice to join us and be the master of your own destiny?"
"How can an alpha live three times longer than an omega even though they are both human?"
"Why is it that as an omega, no matter how hard you try to advance, you can never reach the threshold of 'immortality'?"
The extremely sensational language and the fanatical indoctrination of ideas. However, Su Xi no longer had the patience to listen to her finish——
"Lies!"
"You don't care about the so-called omega rights at all. You only care about yourself. It has nothing to do with gender."
Su Xi reached out and grabbed her again through the insect armor, and directly read Marlena's memory. She searched for the information she wanted at the fastest speed -
About the key thing Fitzgerald had hidden from her.
She had already ruled out the one-fifth of LY368's memory that was neither Emperor Anthony nor the first Queen Laya, nor... the genetic fragments from Source and Holdman.
What will the other two-fifths be?
"For the sake of immortality, you, even in the Laya period, are no longer satisfied with 'human-level' genetic modification..."
"In the beginning, you were lucky enough to awaken your spiritual power, becoming a rare and precious species among omegas. After becoming the queen, with the accumulation of countless resources, you broke through to 3S ability and formed brain circles," Su Xi said calmly, and Marianna's life flashed in her empty eyes. "Your lifespan has exceeded the limit of omegas, but why are you still not satisfied..."
"Satisfied?" Unable to escape and gradually despairing, Marlaina looked crazy, "Why can alphas have the chance of 'immortality'? As for omegas, it's not so much a physical limitation, but rather that the very beginning settings of the O-type 'original gene' were deliberately disrupted!"
"Humanity's experiment on the A-type gene was an attempt to replicate the ability of a single soldier to fight against the Zerg, but the original idea behind the O-type gene was to try to acquire the special abilities of the Zerg Queen, which would allow them to transmit information in a cluster that ignores the laws of time and space!
"The first generation of omegas was born to...create the role of 'super ruler'!"
"Not really!" Marlena's voice gradually became lower and lower: "Not really what we call 'breeders' today!"
"It's not like we are today, where we are restricted by bad genes and the countdown to death is pressed once we give birth!"
"It's not like us today. Omegas' physiological instincts are completely suppressed by alpha hormones! They obey! They become so dependent after being marked that they completely lose themselves!"
Her expression gradually became more and more crazy, and the wisp of smoke that bound her gradually disappeared...
Su Xi closed her eyes slightly and searched through all of Marlena's memories. She found clues to Fitz's genetic hidden dangers.
I also understood all the arrangements of Marena's visit to the First Fortress this time.

"I'm sorry for being so rude," Su Xi opened her eyes and made a decision. She said, "I don't have time. Although I don't know what happened in the outside world, it is obvious that I can't let you go back alive and cause trouble for everyone."
After that, Su Xi no longer hesitated and directly strangled the bound Marlena's "consciousness". Then she experienced, for the first time... the feeling of killing someone.
She looked down at her hands. The red mole on the inside of her right ring finger was also bright red like a mark in the form of consciousness.
Marking the self she knows.
She is not the admiral 'Su Xi' with a five-star military title in the memory fragment of 'Origin Point', nor is she the clone named 'Naya' with disordered memories in this interstellar era.
When she first entered the interstellar era, she was confused about where she was; when she assimilated with the planet, she was also confused about whether she really existed; when she was in the wilderness of the planet BV32-II and was suffering from the sequelae of advancement, she was also confused about what she was doing?
She looked at her hands.
She killed...someone.
On the surface, Su Xi was very calm, but the feelings in her heart were as complicated as a small storm, but she did not feel any regret.
She killed someone.
In this timeline, she was completely tainted by cause and effect. All subsequent developments in this world were no longer unrelated to her.

At the same time.
The real world outside. The first fortress.
The military's external defense was functioning normally, except that the star gate was temporarily closed due to temporary control, causing complaints from the waiting cargo ships. Everything was calm and peaceful as if nothing had happened.
Even in the civilian areas, the night market was still open and bustling as usual. People were unaware of the changes happening in the core military zone of the First Fortress that were enough to affect the entire human empire.
On the outskirts of the military zone, as always, there were occasional flashes of regular patrol teams.
Nothing is different.
But in the core military area, the scene is completely different.
Countless warships surrounded the most confidential area A, and the troops in mini-armor and well-armed equipment waited in silence.
In the besieged core area A.
A secret army that had been planning for a long time and had struggled to break through the defense line suffered an absolutely one-sided massacre.
This situation was far beyond the leader's expectations.
At the top of the high tower in Area A, a man covered in a gray robe and a silver-haired, blue-eyed alpha were facing a showdown that was about to break out.
Under the tower is a tragic scene with corpses everywhere. The skilled special agents of the First Fortress are cleaning up the last resistant cyborg army.
"Hey! I'm telling you, old man!" Silver-haired, blue-eyed Holderman said earnestly in his unique unreliable tone, "Why don't we just forget about this matter! I'll just assume that you missed me so much that you couldn't help but come all the way from Yindu to have a meal together and meet me..."
"Then just go back and enjoy your last moments in the nursing home, isn't that good?"
The tall but skinny man in gray ignored Holdman's teasing and slowly gathered a small storm in his hands.
"Not to mention those cheap cyborgs, just look at those loyal warriors, tut tut!" Holdman exclaimed, "They are all elites above level 3S. It is not easy for the Empire to train them! Why should they all be sacrificed in such an unnecessary dispute?"
However, before Holdman finished his words, a small tornado suddenly gathered with the place where the gray-robed man was standing as the center.
"Haha! Holderman, you're still as talkative as ever!"
The gray-robed man stood in the calmest eye of the storm, compressing the air to form countless sharp wind blades, which broke through the air mercilessly in the direction of Holdman!
Bang—the light blue mental defense shield opened, perfectly avoiding the attack of the man in gray.
"Look at Laya, oh! No, it's more appropriate to call you Marena now," Holdman retracted his defensive hand and said jokingly, "You two came together and will go back together. This is also the fulfillment of your wedding vows!"
"Tsk, tsk, what a loving couple!"
I don't know which word touched his sore spot, but the gray-robed man was enraged by Holdman's words! Bang - he launched a more violent storm attack!
Holdman dodged it perfectly, but the spire behind him was hit, and then with a few bangs, it was blown to ashes by the energy bomb hidden in the air.
Ashes slowly fell from the sky.
"Look, how much effort it took, from Laya to Marlaina. What did you say in your wedding vows? I will be with you until the end of your life..."
"That's romantic, isn't it? What else can you be dissatisfied with, old man?"
Holderman continued to dodge, just defending himself and not taking action out of consideration for the relationship.
The gray-robed man laughed and shouted coldly: "Holdman! You are a coward who only knows how to escape, what do you know!"
Before he finished speaking, a gray shadow attacked in front of him. As he moved, the air in the sky gradually compressed with his movements, forming an extremely distorted air mass in the gray-clothed man's hands.
Holdeman sighed inwardly, and then he perked up completely.
He knew that the other party had already decided to kill him and there was no mercy to be had. The past six hundred years of communication and friendship were completely severed.
"Remember? Whether in the military camp, in the competition for the 'candidate for the throne', or even in the selection of omegas, I am not as good as you!"
As the last syllable of the word "you" fell, Holdman, who became serious, burst out with powerful energy. The light column symbolizing the 6S-level all-round mental power hit the gray-robed man firmly.
Looking at the gray-clothed man stumbling backward, Holdman sighed and asked him: "No matter in terms of status or personal life, you are already the highest existence that an alpha can reach. Why are you still not satisfied?"
The gray-clothed man covered his chest with his hands, and his robe was torn to pieces, revealing the true face of the "old man" mentioned by Holdman.
That was an alpha who was tall but had gray hair on the temples and a completely aged face. "The highest existence? Satisfied?" The alpha with an aged face laughed weirdly and looked extremely crazy.
Although it was expected that Anthony would become weaker day by day after his gene telomeres lost their activity, Holdman was still shocked to see the terrible state he was in.
"Anthony, why are you..."
But before he could finish his words, Holdman was surprised to see his chest pierced by a hand.
"Do you know why my luck has always been better than yours?" The gray-robed man in front of Holdman suddenly turned into a shadow and disappeared, and the real Anthony stood behind Holdman.
As he spoke, he moved the hand that pierced Holderman's chest: "Because I am more decisive than you, and I never hesitate to discard what I should discard!"
"Where is Fitzgerald? Ask him to hand over the cleanest 'genetic backup'!"
"Otherwise, as his childhood mentor, you, haha..." Anthony slowly pulled back his hand, but when half of his hand was about to leave, he suddenly changed his mind and pinched Holdeman's heart, "Your heart will be crushed~haha!"
"The heart is such an important organ that surrounds the cardiac chakra. Even if you enter the repair cabin and rest perfectly, there is an 80% chance that you will not survive."
"Such a risk—"
"What's your choice?" Anthony turned his head and looked towards the other side of the rooftop. "Fitz... Gerald."
