"The Twin Souls escaped?!"
When Lagos received a remote notification from the military envoy, he couldn't help but be surprised, and his face was a little worried. He was not concerned about this matter, but worried that it would affect the plan against Black Star.
"Can you catch the Twin Souls back?"
The military messenger shook his head, "Broken Starlink is not our territory, there are surveillance networks of Black Star Legion and local civilization all over the place, we can't deploy manpower to act with great fanfare, and the target can use the soul-changing instrument, the concealment ability is amazing, so it is estimated that it is impossible to catch came back."
"The plan..."
"Don't worry, the plan remains the same." The military envoy smiled.
Seeing this, a look of doubt appeared on Lagos' face.
Lost a special cosmic treasure, why does the high-level seem not to be nervous at all
"You don't seem worried at all?"
The military messenger waved his hand, "It's okay, there is no need to send someone to hunt them down, they will go back by themselves."
"Could it be..." Lagos's expression moved slightly.
The military messenger straightened his face and said, "This is not a very high-level secret. This time the high-level officials asked me to tell you, don't worry about the problem of the twin souls, and execute the plan as usual. The person in charge of the Marwell project asked me to The super-a-level magician secretly planted a trigger-type mental spell trap on the twins, creating a hidden sub-personality, completely loyal to the Modo civilization, and as long as they are stimulated, they can return obediently."
"So that's how it is..." Lagos nodded subconsciously, but his brows were wrinkled again, "But in this case, why not deprive the soul-turning twins of their autonomy and directly control the two of them. Why do you have to take risks?"
The military messenger didn't care, "It's very simple to control the soul-turning twins. No matter how weird they are, they are only middle and low-level power users, but do you think that Marwell's plan has been implemented for so many years, haven't you done any experiments? ?As long as it is the method you can think of, we have basically tried it.
However, the results show that only when the soul-turning twins have completely autonomous and independent consciousness can they use the ability of the soul-turning instrument. In addition, any attempt to use the soul-turning instrument by manipulating the bodies of the soul-turning twins is completely ineffective. It's not feasible, even if it's just a simple brainwashing, the soul-changing instrument will no longer recognize the qualifications of the two, so we can only be half-forced as we are now. "
"Why?" Lagos wondered.
"How do I know, it looks like the soul-changing instrument has identified the twins. It is estimated that it is related to the mystery of the soul. It is very idealistic. It is precisely because it is unreasonable that we classify the soul-changing instrument into the category of cosmic wonders. Among them, if you can figure out why, where is the matter of the soul-turning twins..." The military messenger snorted, "Although they are strange, they are quite weak, and they are not a threat. They can only borrow the power of the soul-turning instrument. , will make people so fearful, just like a child with a gun in his hand."
"Understood." Lagos nodded.
"Well, it's good that you understand the situation. In short, you don't need to worry about the problem of the twins, just worry about Black Star."
After all, the military envoy cut off the communication, and the screen went black.
Lagos closed the virtual screen, exhaled, slightly relieved, and a smile appeared on his face.
Although there was an accident, in his opinion, the smooth development of the plan for Black Star is the most important thing.
…
In a barren cosmos belt in Broken Starlink, a secret resource base belonging to Modo civilization is being attacked by the Black Star Legion armed fleet, with lasers and fires everywhere.
The picture of the battlefield was transmitted to the main control room of Qianguang Galaxy through the quantum network channel, and Aesop and a group of cadres were monitoring the battle situation remotely.
It didn't take long for the battle in the picture to end. The Black Star Legion fleet annihilated all the enemies, established a stronghold, and was collecting the spoils.
"Very good! We destroyed another secret stronghold of Modo civilization!" Nilo, who was watching the battle from a distance, laughed, "Thanks to Lord Aesop's accurate prediction, it helped us find the enemy's base."
With the boss taking the lead, the cadres present spoke one after another and praised Aesop.
"It's just a small matter." Aesop waved his hand in low interest.
"Haha, credit is credit, you don't have to be humble, I will have someone pick you up immediately and treat you well." Nilo asked with a smile.
"I'm going to take a stroll outside, and I won't go back to the headquarters." Aesop shook his head.
Nilo was stunned, "Then how long are you going to stay outside?"
"A month."
"So long?!" Nilo hesitated, "I still suggest you come back as soon as possible, maybe there will be new tasks..."
"Where do you come from so much nonsense, I don't have the qualifications to relax outside? Use me as a tool?"
"Well, that's not what I meant."
Aesop narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "Also, remove these troops and bodyguards. When I am relaxing, I don't like others to disturb me."
"This..." Nilo looked embarrassed, "I can't just evacuate people, what if there is an accident?"
boom!
Aesop slammed the table and shouted: "Why, do I need your protection? These people are following so closely, I think it's surveillance! I tell you, remove these people from me, or I will go back to the dragon immediately. Tan, what relationship do I have with Black Star, it is your turn to take care of me?"
Nilo's expression suffocated, secretly a little annoyed.
This old man used to get along very well. What's going on today? It's like eating dynamite. Could it be that the uncle is here
It's just annoyed, Nilo really doesn't dare to contradict Aesop. After all, Aesop is here to help, representing Dragon Calm, not his subordinate, and Aesop is also an elder, both the adoptive father and godfather of Dragon Seat. friend, he can't do anything.
People don't want to go back to the headquarters, and they can't beat them, so they can't tie them back, otherwise, even if the godfather doesn't blame him, Aunt Emersy won't be able to explain it.
Nilo took a sigh of relief and forced a smile, "Since you like quietness, then I will ask the guards not to follow closely."
"It's almost there."
Aesop turned his head and glanced at the cadres around him, and said casually:
"Did you all hear it?"
When the two were arguing, the people in the room stopped their work and kept silent. When they heard Aesop's words, everyone had no choice but to nod in response.
"Yes, that's it, I'll go back to the room first." Aesop hummed lightly, put his hands behind him, turned and walked away.
Looking at Aesop's back disappearing from sight, the faces of many people in the room became unsightly.
"What does this old man think of himself, so arrogant." A natural disaster grade bodyguard frowned, "If it wasn't for the Legion's order, would I be willing to protect him?"
"That's right, this guy really doesn't know what to do." The other person was also quite dissatisfied.
"It's okay, don't say a word, no matter what, it's my elder. Maybe today is just in a bad mood. He doesn't want to, so don't force it." Nilo frowned slightly, gave a few words, and hung up. communication.
To be honest, he wanted to report it to Han Xiao just now, but after thinking about it, Aesop just made a contribution, but his attitude towards himself was a little worse, and he was going to sue. It was too stingy to ask his parents to cry, The godfather wants to be on his own, and doing so by himself may disappoint the godfather.
"I'm not angry... I'm not angry..."
In the headquarters office, Nilo murmured in a low voice. He really felt that his mood gradually calmed down, and a kind of Buddhist feeling gradually emerged, and he felt that he had learned some kind of special trick to keep calm.
…
"Daddy! Something happened!!"
More than half a month later, Han Xiao, who was staying in the Glittering World Black Star Palace, received a communication from Nilo, and was startled by Nilo's loud voice as soon as he connected.
"Calm down, what's going on?" Han Xiao moved the communicator a little, and by the way stretched out his tail finger to dig his ears.
"No, Aesop is gone!" Nilo said anxiously.
Han Xiao moved for a while, and raised his brows slightly, "What is the situation when you said that it disappeared?"
"He just disappeared! He didn't know where he went, and he couldn't find it."
"Didn't you send someone to follow him, why was he lost?" Han Xiao was curious.
"I… "
Nilo was annoyed and said the whole thing again, because Aesop showed rejection to the bodyguard, so the bodyguard did not follow closely during this time, and did not disturb Aesop to relax. However, when an urban planet was resting, the bodyguard found Aesop. Soo is missing.
"By the way, they also found that Aesop left a video message in the room,"
"What did the old man say?"
"He said it was a special message for you, to remind you of the agreement not long ago." Nilo played the video again, and it was exactly the same.
After figuring out the ins and outs, Han Xiao touched his chin with a subtle expression.
Just about a month ago, when I was chatting with Aesop, Aesop mentioned that he was going to take the opportunity to leave Shattered Starlink and continue to travel. He made a tacit agreement with himself. Han Xiao immediately thought that this was Aesop. The reason for Suo's disappearance is that the old man is leaving.
But on second thought, Han Xiao felt something was wrong.
'Strange, the old man clearly agreed to help me, he left after the Transcendent star cluster alliance was over. Wouldn't he not keep his promise if he left now, could it be that he couldn't hold back? '
Han Xiao's thoughts turned slightly, but his face did not show it. He just nodded to Nilo and said:
"Understood, I'll take care of this, just leave it alone."
"I... ah, okay." Nilo hesitated, he wanted to justify himself, but he gave up after a while, sighed and hung up the communication.
Han Xiao straightened up from the reclining chair, his eyes changed, his fingers lightly tapped the table twice, and he suddenly pulled into the void, catching Philip out of the quantum vision.
"Master, what are you doing?"
"Tell me all the records of Aesop's actions in the last month."
Although Han Xiao felt that Aesop might have taken the initiative to run away, at this time, it is better to check carefully.
Soon, Philip found the record, Han Xiao closed his eyes and quickly browsed in his brain.
"Well, it doesn't seem to be a problem. More than ten days ago, I made a contribution to destroying a secret stronghold of the Modo civilization. It seems normal for me to make a contribution..."
Han Xiao muttered secretly.
These records don't seem to be abnormal, but he always has a strange intuition in his heart, and he feels that there is something tricky in it.
Transcendent A Grade's intuition is generally quite accurate, and coupled with the dangerous premonition that Aesop raised some time ago, he couldn't help but feel a bad feeling in his heart.
"No, I still have to find him to check."
Originally, the agreement between myself and Aesop was only a symbolic pursuit, and he secretly let him go. If I really caught Aesop, with the lessons learned, Emersy must be prepared and must be strictly guarded, and Aesop is estimated to be unable to run. .
But to be cautious, Han Xiao decided to take Aesop back and ask... Anyway, the old man didn't keep the agreement first, even if he made a mistake, it's not that we suffer.
With a certain mind, Han Xiao sent an order to Nilo, asking him to command Broken Starlink’s troops to search for Aesop’s traces.
Immediately afterwards, Han Xiao stood up and strode out of the room, all the way to a private laboratory.
There is a translucent dormant chamber in the laboratory, and the sleeping Lodi is locked in it, surrounded by information state restrainers, which are the children of Destiny who have not completely completed the transformation.
"Old Aesop's prophecy is powerful. If he is determined to run, unless it's Nilo, Fording and the others, it's really not easy to catch him by relying on his subordinates, but well, now I also have reliable prophecies in my hands. Talented…”
Han Xiao smiled secretly in his heart.
In the past, he was just a fake "prophet" and could only rely on metaphysics to catch Aesop by chance, but this time it was different. He had a real prophecy master in his hand.
Prophets can see multiple possibilities in the future, and when they discuss it, the situation can be roughly summarized as "I predicted your prediction and my prediction."
Although Lodi has only been transformed in half, it is difficult to subjectively control his own abilities, and the theme of the prophecy is basically random, but with the specificity of Child of Destiny, he should be able to have a few tricks with Aesop.
Han Xiao operated a few times in the dormant warehouse. It didn't take long for Lodi to wake up. He opened his eyes blankly. , weakly said:
"Your Excellency Black Star?"
"You're awake." Han Xiao opened the warehouse door and said with a smile, "I need your help with something, and I need to borrow your predictive ability."
"Ah? But I can't control this ability yet." Lodi was a little flustered.
"Just do your best... Remember the old man who could see you too, the tall and thin one, the one who spoke to you."
"I remember." Lodi nodded again and again. He had met Aesop before, and he was deeply impressed and naturally remembered.
"That guy played hide-and-seek with me, I'm going to find him now, and you keep repeating his name in your head, then touching my body, trying to trigger a prophecy about him."
"Then, what if I didn't get the relevant prophecy?" Lodi asked weakly.
Han Xiao smiled, but his tone was unquestionable.
"Then try until you succeed!"
Hearing this, Lodi shuddered.
He still can't control his own predictive ability, he needs to contact people, and he will definitely pass out, and he will be very weak when he wakes up, which is not a good feeling.
At this moment, Han Xiao's smile was like a devil in his eyes.
"Are you ready?"
"Okay... okay."
Lodi knew that he had no room for rejection, so he swallowed and chanted Aesop's name crazily in his mind.
He stretched out his hand tremblingly and touched Han Xiao's arm.
At the moment of the touch, Lodi swayed like an electric shock, and if someone who didn't know watched it, he would have thought he was dancing a shock dance.
"what!"
After a few seconds, he suddenly let out a short sound, rolled his eyes, fell on his back, and passed out.
Han Xiao took it easy, took out a tube of emerald green injection from his pocket, and gave Lodi a shot.
Now that he can observe Lodi, it means that he can have actual contact. The reason for Lodi's syncope is that he cannot afford the loss of his ability as an ordinary person. Taking some related medicines can speed up his awakening... This is what Han Xiao did. Results after dozens of experiments.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Lodi's eyelashes to tremble, and he slowly opened his eyes. The blurred vision became clear again. He saw Han Xiao's burly body half-squatting in front of him, with a pair of burning eyes staring at him.
"Tell me, what did you see?"
Lodi shrank his neck in fear, recalled the scene in his dream, glanced at Han Xiao's face, and said carefully:
"I-I saw you and a woman in a black dress involved in a war, countless warships exploded under your hands, and a corpse lay at your feet..."
"Corpse?" Han Xiao was stunned, the plot of the previous life came to his mind, and subconsciously said: "Aesop's?"
"Yes, it's his."
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly.
In the previous life, it was precisely because of Aesop's death that Dragon Seat went out of control and committed massacres, violating the peace agreement between the advanced civilizations of the universe, so he was besieged and eventually disappeared, and his life and death are unknown.
Is this the end of the world line? Or for some reason I don't know
"It's kind of interesting, I always feel like someone is calculating something behind..."
Han Xiao stood with his arms folded, one hand scratching the stubble of his chin with his middle finger, thoughtfully.
