After getting on the flying ship and flying a long way away, Nie Liangcai asked, "Mr. Lan Xia, are you a relative of the admiral?"

Ellan Snow's pupils shrank and he looked over eagerly.

Nie Liang poured him a cup of hot water to warm his hands.

"From what you said before you left, plus the fact that you two give me a very similar feeling," he raised his eyes, "I guess he is the admiral's brother?"

…

Know the country.

Gong Du: "I'm shocked. Is Nie Liang born in the year of the dog?"

This is different from what he wrote in the script!

Normally, Nie Liang should still be waiting for news from the reptile.

Xiao Guangtuan: "It's inevitable. You controlled Lan Xia through your separated soul, but the essence is still you. Nie Liang has a peculiar way of recognizing people, so it's not surprising that he could smell the scent."

So I guess I’m still born in the Year of the Dog.

Nie Liang staying by his side would definitely be a variable that would ruin his script.

Gong Du's expression changed: "I want to send him away."

Small light group: “?”

Miyato thought about his own script that was integrated with the world line, and made full use of the original endings of every character, including Kang Inu.

At the Nieliang Line, Gongdu was slightly modified.

Anyway, we won't be using this guy much in the future, so let's send him away first to avoid causing him any trouble.

"It's fixed!"

Small light group: “???”

It swore that Gongdu was the most despicable failing candidate it had ever seen since it was born.

…

The cup in my hand continuously delivers heat to my palm.

Elan Snow was silent for a long time. Just when Nie Liang thought he would not answer, he heard a soft voice: "...Is it obvious?"

Admitted.

Nie Liang felt nervous.

He was just following his intuition.

He considered, "If that's the case, why don't you just meet him directly?"

Elan Snow smiled: "How did you recognize each other?"

"In my brother's eyes, I am a younger brother who died more than ten years ago, pure and innocent. But now, my hands are stained with the blood of innocent people and I have committed heinous crimes," he said calmly, "You can ask how many people are looking forward to my death day and night, whether in the Federation or the Northwest Star Region."

Nie Liang argued: "But you clearly didn't remember anything before. If Mr. Lan Xia knew..."

Ellen Snow: "Even if they don't remember, those people still died in my hands. It's still me who killed them. There's no difference."

The airship returned to the First Legion.

Nie Liang is still struggling.

To put it bluntly, he doesn't understand this complex emotion. To him, if he likes someone, he will pursue them; if he admires them, he will work hard for them; if he hates them, he will just get rid of them.

But he also had a little understanding. Just like when he touched the admiral, he always wore clean white gloves. The admiral wanted to get to know Mr. Lan Xia, so he probably wanted him to be clean when he got to know him.

No wonder...the general prefers to wear white clothes at dawn.

After substituting the words into the text, the little crazy bird seemed to understand it again.

Then I started to feel distressed.

He asked, “What can I do for you?”

Gong Du tried to trick him away, saying, "I plan to confess to my brother after overthrowing the Federation, but I feel like there's something missing."

Nie Liang said without hesitation: "You can tell me and I will prepare it."

Gong Du suppressed the inexplicable guilt in his heart and said, "Legend has it that in the snowfields of the Arctic Star Region, there is a kind of purple ice crystal stone. In the sun, the surface will glow golden. It is very precious, but no one has seen it for a long time."

"I plan to carve a flower and give it to my brother, but it will probably take several months to go back and forth, so I want you to go."

Before, Nie Liang would have agreed immediately, but now that a war was imminent, he was a little worried and said hesitantly: "Admiral..."

Gong Du said: "This is the first time I have given you a serious task. Now, besides Kane, you are the only person I trust. Don't tell anyone about this."

Nie Liang: “!!!”

He felt his feet begin to drift away, and his whole body was immersed in a pool of warm water, feeling intoxicated.

He nodded: "I will definitely bring what you want!"

Gong Du patted his shoulder with satisfaction and said, "When you come back, you will hear the news of victory."

Nie Liang always believed this and smiled: "Victory will always belong to you."

The admiral said he trusted him.

The admiral even patted him on the shoulder.

Very good, I will hang this dress up immediately after I get home and cannot wash it anymore.

Purple cryolite that glows golden in the sun—

It matches the Admiral and Mr. Lan Xia very well.

As expected of an admiral, the gifts he came up with to give others are so exquisite and unique.

The admiral will definitely be very happy when he brings the things back.

As long as the admiral is happy, he is happy.

——

Nie Liang left.

The war between the Northwest Star Region and the Federation has officially begun.

The flames of war spread rapidly, and the First Legion's defense was like a piece of tofu, which could be quickly broken through every time by accurately finding its weaknesses.

The Northwestern star region, led by Xiguang, is unstoppable.

The four rulers of Xiguang became famous. The leader, Aljie, was calm and magnanimous, with an amazing overall view. The first general under his command was actually the young master of the Sutu organization, who had broken through to the S level and even had unprecedented ice-attribute mental power.

This undoubtedly pushed everyone's emotions to a climax.

Lian Yao made everyone realize the horror of the information network in this battle. Although the battle consumed resources, he was able to maintain a stable supply to Xiguang's rear.

Jin Daiqi saved countless lives from the hands of death, and the healing drugs he developed were quickly promoted throughout the army.

Lan Xia sat in the back, rarely taking action, but never losing.

The sword that had been dormant in the scabbard finally revealed its sharpness once it was unsheathed. In just three months, Xiguang had accumulated great prestige.

The Federation, which had stood for a thousand years, was now uttering its dying cry after nearly a hundred years of decay.

When the army of the Northwest Star Region was about to reach the outside of the imperial capital, many people who were immersed in their dreams finally realized that the Federation...

It seems like it's really going to fall.

——

Imperial capital.

The imperial palace.

There were not many people left in the majestic palace; it was empty and lonely.

Many people who heard the news had already packed up and fled, leaving behind only the palace maids who were helpless.

When Gong Du came over, the sky was dark and cloudy.

Xiao Guangtuan: "Come over and give it a try. I'll tell you about the plot. But how do you know that Roche and the others will follow your ideas?"

Miyato: "If they don't follow my ideas, I can kill them and start over."

In short, his script would never allow anyone to interrupt. He could send Nie Liang away, and he could also 'send away' the two bugs.

All for the purpose of making up for the exam.

Little Light Group: "...You are the boss, you are awesome."

Elansno held the Sword of Morro's Triumph, and there was no blood on his body. In this war between the Federation and the Northwest Star Region, he almost didn't care about the whole process and even controlled many generals.

Death in war is inevitable, and he has done his best to keep the number of deaths to a minimum. As for how others curse him, it has nothing to do with him.

"Admiral, please, His Majesty is waiting for you inside."

The magnificent door creaked open.

Elansno took a deep breath and walked in. He came here to settle the matter with Emperor Roche, kill Roche, and then go to massacre the institute.

Kill them all.

Then wash yourself.

At the moment of overthrowing the federation, I opened the palace gate of the imperial city and went to see my brother in a clean and honest manner.

On the high steps.

Emperor Roshi still held his scepter in his hand, looking over with compassion and peace.

Next to him stood Dean Pei.

"You're here, Elance."

Elansno's eyes were cold, "Roche."

Emperor Roshi smiled and said, "You are still so stubborn. You have remembered everything? It is really amazing. In the history of mankind, you are the first person to prove that the purest and most foolish emotions can produce miracles. But unfortunately, your brother did not recognize you."

The relaxed attitude between him and Dean Pei finally made Ellan Snow notice something was wrong.

Violation.

He was so anxious when he was ordered to fight back, why was he so calm now that he was right in front of him?

Emperor Roshi had a strange smile on his face: "You and your brother are both obstacles to us. It would be perfect if we could destroy you both without any effort."

Ellan Snow frowned: "You..."

Dean Pei, who was standing silently beside, gently pressed a button in his hand.

Ellansno felt a sudden pain in his head and half-knelt on the ground for a long time. Then his eyes went dark and he passed out.

The controller in Dean Pei's hand was already hot: "Fortunately, after he wakes up, the control time is only one hour at most."

"Thanks to the two previous brainwashing sessions, his brain has become very fragile, otherwise we would have failed."

Emperor Roshi: "It's good that it succeeded. It's time to deal with the things in the research institute."

Their figures gradually disappeared into the darkness.

Hundreds of years ago, the Zerg invaded the Federation, but were strangled and killed, forced into a chaotic magnetic zone, and nearly wiped out. Only a few undiscovered Zerg eggs were left.

The only two remaining intelligent brain worms started by invading the people at the bottom, controlling their thoughts, and climbing up step by step.

It was not until the last hundred years or so that they climbed to a very high position and moved the Ice Cast City to the underground of the research institute. The frozen corpses became a breeding ground for their eggs.

The Zerg are a race with strong vitality. As long as there is a spark of hope left, they can gather together again and make a comeback.

The chaotic magnetic area has become the base camp for the revival of the Zerg.

Eventually, a brain worm invaded Emperor Roshi's brain, and thus the "Purification Plan" was born.

The memories they inherited told them that the Zerg had invaded the homes of countless races and had succeeded in every case, but they had met with failure on this enormous planet.

Because this planet is inhabited by creatures that are different from those in other places. These creatures are called "human beings".

Human beings have inherited a culture that has lasted for tens of millions of years and has become ingrained in their bones, seemingly forming a certain innate belief. This belief enables them to always write miracles, be tempered in the flames, and become eternal in another sense.

It is an eternity that the Zerg cannot achieve even through constant devouring.

But it doesn't matter.

After learning, they have already taken control of the system of the Human Federation. Once they devour and occupy this planet, they will become "humans" in another sense.

——

The army from the Northwest Star Region is getting closer.

Shoubing led his troops to fight against the Second Army in the north of the Imperial Capital.

Xiguang temporarily set up camp a hundred miles outside the imperial capital.

"Still can't contact Elansno? Nie Liang hasn't seen him for a long time," Alger said, "We will attack the imperial capital tomorrow night. Logically, he should have joined us now."

Lian Yao: "At this point in the war, it's too late for him to break the agreement even if he wants to. Did he enter the Imperial City in advance?"

Lan Xia also frowned, "Is there something wrong? I feel a little uncomfortable."

Jin Daiqi: "Didn't the teacher leave his mark in the Elansno spiritual realm? Can you feel it?"

"The mental mark was left shallowly. I can only feel that it still exists, but I can't feel it specifically." If it was left deeper, it would be very painful. He only left a shallow mark at the time.

Arge: "He is an S-class evolver. Since the teacher can feel that the mental imprint is intact, it means that there should be nothing wrong. Elansno is very strong."

Lan Xia whispered: "There is no news about Nie Liang either."

"...Forget it," he sighed, "When we attack the imperial capital tomorrow, he will definitely come looking for us."

The stars were sparse outside the tent and the moon was bright. Lan Xia looked up at the starry sky.

He suddenly remembered that when he and Ellan Snow separated three months ago, the other party smiled and asked him: "...If you don't mind, maybe I can call you brother."

"If..." Lan Xia murmured, "If we succeed in overthrowing the Federation this time, and he wants to call me brother, I don't think I would be so opposed to it."

Alge, who was standing next to him, heard it clearly and was slightly stunned.

——

Close to the Arctic.

The temperature reached as low as -79 degrees.

The ground is covered with frost and the wind is biting. Even if you have special cold-proof equipment, you may die here if you are not careful.

The further you go inside, the weaker the signal from the optical computer becomes.

Nie Liang had flown for three months to get here. Now he was curled up in the flying ship, rubbing his fingers and cursing at the Lanzhou River.

Nie Liang: “Is the reptile dead?”

He was about to enter the Arctic Star Region to look for gems, and wanted to see the data stolen from the research institute before going in.

Lanzhou River: "99.991%, where are you now? Why do you sound trembling?"

Nie Liang: "Take an ice bath."

Lanzhou River: “.”

Don't understand.

The fall of the Federation is inevitable. He stared at the progress of the reptile more and more times. If nothing unexpected happens, there is a high probability that the progress will reach 100% by the night after tomorrow.

In order to avoid missing it, he didn't plan to close a wink at these two points.

Nie Liang: "Then I'll go in after seeing the information."

Lanzhou River: "Go in? Where?"

Nie Liang: “Oh, get in the bathtub.”

Lan Zhouhe was speechless. Just as he was about to complain, he saw a red alarm light suddenly flash on the screen controlling the reptile:

[The self-destruction process is detected, the crawler is afraid, the crawler is afraid! 】

Lan Zhouhe: "...Fuck! What happened? Someone activated the self-destruction program of the research institute's database?! Is there something wrong with their brain?"

Nie Liang paused, and his voice suddenly rose N degrees: "What did you say?!"

[The reptiles are scared! The reptiles are scared! Woohoo! The reptiles are scared! ]

...Stupid! What are you afraid of? A bunch of low-level data!

Lanzhouhe: "Stop arguing!"

He spit out the cigarette in his mouth, sat up fiercely, and said with a gloomy look: "The deadline for completing the self-destruction program is tomorrow night. As long as I can grab all the remaining data before then, the crawler can survive smoothly."

Damn.

No one can stop him from making money.

Isn't it just stealing data? !

Lanzhouhe quickly typed lines of code on the light screen.

——

Time passes by.

Finally it was the evening of the second day.

The battle to defend the ice was a success and they were on their way to the imperial capital.

Lian Yao received the news that "The Temple of Divine Mercy still accepted a group of children who were voluntarily sent by the Federation nobles. The rebuilt Temple of Divine Mercy is not far from the Institute, and those children are now in the Institute."

Arge groaned, "I want to go to the institute to rescue the children first. Capturing Emperor Roche and gaining fame is far less important than saving innocent lives."

Lan Xia smiled and said, "Okay."

He patted Alger on the shoulder and said with relief: "With such an idea, you already have the basic qualities of an excellent leader. Grow up."

Arge is sorry.

Jin Daiqiao said: "In front of the teacher, we are all children."

"Since you're going to the research institute, I want to go with you. Maybe I can be of some help."

Lan Xia nodded: "Okay."

Xiguang became the vanguard and approached the imperial capital first. The strength of the imperial capital’s guards should not be underestimated. It will take some time to minimize the damage and conquer.

…

Research Institute.

Lan Xia sneaked in with Arge and three other men and a team of warriors.

The tall trees are lush and green, and the air is filled with a faint fishy smell.

No one.

Lian Yao frowned: "The intelligence is wrong?"

Lan Xia: “Something’s wrong—get out of the way!”

His voice suddenly became sharper, and he used his mental power to pull several people to retreat quickly.

Suddenly, a huge ceiling appeared in the sky, quickly pressed down, and suddenly stopped when it was five meters away from the ground!

Nearly one hundred children aged seven or eight were hanging under the ceiling. Once the barrier was broken, the young and frightened cries instantly pierced the sky.

The moment the crying sounded, pairs of scarlet eyes opened in the surrounding tall trees. Hundreds of wall ants crawled out of the ground and rushed over in the blink of an eye.

Makes a piercing hiss.

Not only that, a lot of black bullet holes suddenly appeared on the buildings around the institute, and bullets were fired at them!

In three seconds, the situation took a sudden turn for the worse, catching everyone off guard.

Lan Xia expanded the coverage of his mental power to protect the child on the ceiling and block the bullets and attacks.

Alger said in a deep voice: "Why are there wall ants here?"

Lian Yao: "...Fell into the trap."

"Don't worry about it for now, save the children, protect them and be careful," Lan Xia paid attention to destroying some of the bullet holes and went towards the wall ants.

The children hanging on the ceiling were like sitting ducks. They were rescued and carefully placed in the protective circle in the middle, shivering.

With Lan Xia using up her mental energy to calmly control the battle situation, they soon stabilized and the corpses of the wall ants were increasing.

until--

The screen in the center of the institute flickered and suddenly lit up.

Emperor Luoshu's smiling voice appeared inside, and he called out, "Lan Xia, do you want to see your brother?"

Lan Xia's hand trembled and she failed to dodge, and a bullet grazed her forearm.

He suddenly raised his eyes, his golden pupils were frighteningly cold.

The central screen was adjusted to a video playback format, and the huge pause button in the center of the video looked like a rune sealing the abyss.

The background of the video is the Temple of Mercy from more than ten years ago.

Lan Xia: "...Are you targeting me? What do you want to do? How do you know that I..."

Emperor Roshi's voice sounded very happy: "Your brother Arnold is a very good child. He only cries out when he is in great pain. He is like... a very interesting toy that can never be broken."

Lan Xia kicked away the ants on the wall, and her voice was like ice chips: "Shut up."

Alger glanced at him worriedly: "Teacher..."

Emperor Roshi was obviously trying to distract the teacher.

"Why are you angry? You have never seen this. You should thank me. I recorded every second of his life with great care and edited it for you," Emperor Roshi said with a smile. "Don't worry. Take your time to read it."

The video started playing on the huge screen.

An extremely familiar, childish and urgent voice made Lan Xia unable to control herself and look at the screen.

[It was a silent temple.

A little boy, with anxious eyes and his clothes askew, rushed out holding a doll.

He yelled, "Where's my brother? Where's my brother?!"

"Who of you has seen my brother?"]

Lan Xia: "...That was when I received a 'treatment' for Arnold and never came back."

The video continues.

[Lan Nuo stumbles. He is very thin, with purple eyes wide open. He pulls at the clothes of the indifferent adult in the temple.

"Have you met my brother? He looks just like me."

"I can't find him."

"no!"

The adults turned away coldly with disgust.

Lan Nuo walked all over the Temple of Mercy, but couldn't find his brother. His feet were covered with blisters and every step left a blood mark.

He met the group of bad kids who always bullied him and his brother.

He asked those bad boys, "Have you seen my brother?"

The bad kids laughed and told him, "We know it, but we won't tell you! Hey? When you begged us not to beat your brother, didn't you kowtow loudly?"

"When you are satisfied, I will tell you where your brother is."

Lan Nuo knelt down and kowtowed without hesitation.

The first blow caused him to bleed, and he kowtowed while begging them: "Please tell me where my brother is! Please, please!"

"Please..."

Tears fell to the ground.

Suddenly, he was kicked and his whole body curled up.

Someone asked in annoyance: "Your brother is dead."

The little boy froze in pain. He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he suddenly got up and rushed towards the man, screaming, "Impossible, impossible, impossible!"

He bit and ripped at it like a mad beast.

"Fuck! He's crazy! Pull him away!" The man was in so much pain, "If you don't believe me, go ask the priest! Your brother was pulled out this morning and he's dead!"

Lan Nuo was thrown down, but he got up again. He imitated the group of people and said viciously: "I don't believe it! I will ask the priest! I know, you just want to trick me into kowtowing."

He walked away with a proud and heroic manner, and the moment he turned around, he wiped away his tears.

"You bullied me, I will tell my brother."

He didn't know how long he waited before he saw the priest in his robes. He asked the same question: "Where is my brother? The one who looks like me, my brother."

The priest looked at him with pity and said, "Son, your brother has been taken away by God."

Lan Nuo was stunned: "What god?"

The priest looked at the holy statue in the temple and said: "There, He is God."

Lan Nuo held the doll and staggered to the huge statue.

The statue stood there, always cold and high above. Lanno had never seen it bestow any grace upon him, but now it had taken away his brother.

He couldn't even see the face of the statue even when he tilted his head back, it was so high.

He felt very aggrieved and said, "Give my brother back to me."

"My brother is all I have left."]
