Mia was shocked and rushed up to stop the young man. She held his fists tightly and stared into the eyes of the "young man" with red eyes. She bit her lips and shook her head.
From her eyes, the "young man" saw deep helplessness and worry. He didn't really care about this young master. It was not even as important as going to Niyue's house to get back his property. It was just that a wave of hostility was surging in his heart.
Under Mia's insistence, he finally loosened his fist.
"You want to resist?"
At this moment, a valiant man got out of a car on the other side of the crowd. Under his black hair, his black eyes were very sharp. He said lightly, "Young Master is the master, and you are the servants. If he tells you to jump, you have to jump. It's only right and proper. Do you understand?"
Mia had probably realized that this man was nearby. She wasn't very surprised, but the worry and tension on her face deepened.
She was about to salute again when she heard a sarcastic laugh from outside the door.
"Master? Servant? I heard that the God of War Als changed his name to Als because he didn't want to be a servant. So even though I'm a blue-haired man, I still admire him! I didn't expect that as his direct descendant, he would say something like this. Hehehe. "
The black-haired man looked up at the door and said lightly, "It's not the Temple's place to say anything about the Hull family."
At this time, a blue-haired man wearing a simple holy robe walked in. He nodded and said, "You're right. I'm indeed a busybody. But I just came from the Black Hole base. I heard that this kid killed a monster that was suspected to be at level seven or eight with just a rock. I also heard that someone is plotting against this kid. So I came here to see what's going on. I don't know which is harder, Lord Ao Mai's head or this kid's rock? It's a pity. "
The people here could naturally tell what he was feeling sorry for. Although they recognized him as the chief knight of the Great Temple, they were still stunned by his usual way of speaking. There were too few people who dared to make fun of Lord Ao Mai. Almost none.
The black-haired man didn't seem to be angry. He said calmly, "It's not my place to plot against him. But you seem to have been plotting something with some people in the Hull family."
The blue-haired man laughed, "Of course he's not worth it. You're plotting against Mia and the others. No, I underestimated you. You're plotting against me."
The black-haired man smiled faintly, "So you have to come out."
The blue-haired knight shook his head and said, "I just don't know. You're so powerful that you managed to coax the young master around. Does your master know?"
The black-haired man said calmly, "What we're doing today is all for the young master's future. There's no need for you to say anything. Since you've already come out, you've admitted that some of the recent matters of the Hull family are indeed related to you.
The blue-haired knight looked at Mia and said, "Actually, you don't have to go through so much trouble."
The black-haired man said lightly, "Between you and me, there can only be one winner."
The blue-haired man stopped smiling and said after a while, "If it's for Miss Chu Dai, then you've found the wrong person. That's what your master and the Temple want. But if it's for that matter, there can only be one winner between us."
A sharp light flashed in the black-haired man's eyes, but immediately returned to normal, "Although my reputation among the people is not as good as yours, at least I'm not as hypocritical as you. You don't have to say these words again. Today, he must jump for the young master. Are you going to stop him now?"
The blue-haired man immediately shook his head, "I've said, I'm just here to watch the show."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense again. Mia, who was still injured, stood up and said, "7573 was injured during the operation. If the young master wants to watch, then let me do it."
After saying that, she didn't wait for the others to object. She immediately jumped up like a bird. But the pain from the injury caused by the jump made her face as pale as paper. Her forehead was covered with sweat.
At this time, the disabled old man who had received Mia and the others before appeared next to the young master and whispered something in his ear.
The young master frowned and looked at Mia who staggered and almost couldn't stand still. He snorted coldly, "Bitch, you got lucky today. Let's go."
The disabled old man didn't look at Mia and hurriedly left with the young master.
Mai seemed to have also received some news. He glanced at the blue-haired man without any expression and also got into the four-wheeled car.
The knight smiled, "There's nothing to see. They're all gone. Mia, are you okay?"
Mia couldn't speak because of the pain. The soldiers supported her and could only nod with a pale face.
He then said, "I still have to go to the Hull family. Something happened. We'll talk about it when we get back to the base."
…
In the car on the way back to the base, after emergency treatment, Mi Ya's pale face gradually recovered a trace of color. Seeing that the "young man" had been looking at her, she faintly smiled and said, "Do you feel humiliated?"
The "young man" nodded, his eyes were as calm as water.
Mia's expression became gloomy. She looked out of the window and said, "Cespia, tell me, between a moment of humiliation and a lifetime of ideals, which one is more important?"
She was asking the "young man", but it was more like she was asking herself.
This question was too profound for the "young man". He couldn't answer it. He just thought, is there a way to achieve ideals without humiliation in this world?
He knew his idea was a little simple, but he found that he probably didn't even have an ideal, unless planting flowers all over the prairie counted.
After a long time, Mia sighed as if she had already answered her own question in her heart. She said, "Cespia, you can't do it. Although your performance in the dark pit was extraordinary, the energy level of those black-armored monsters is still uncertain. Moreover, the military scientists at the base are still analyzing whether you hit their weak spot or not. Even if it wasn't, they are animals after all. They only know how to kill brutally. Sir Mai's combat skill is level nine, he can't be compared at all. He might not even be able to get close to him, he-"
The "young man" suddenly interrupted her and said, "I understand. If I do it, you will completely fail."
Mia looked at him in surprise. She thought that the young man might not understand something, so he had to explain. She didn't expect him to be so clear in his heart.
Yes, as soon as he did it, it immediately became the negative evidence. It proved that their idea was completely wrong. If the martial arts were open to the public, it would only bring harm to the Hull family. Those who had learned the martial arts and combat skills would start to attack the people of the Hull family.
Mia nodded and admitted, "Yes."
The "young man" said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. I can listen to you. I don't care about these things."
Looking at the expectant eyes of the "young man", Mia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I also understand. When my injuries get better, I will go to the Dean family."
…
After arriving at the base, the researchers who had been waiting for a long time dragged the "young man" to test his energy level again. This time, they borrowed a more accurate energy level tester from other places.
But to their disappointment and puzzlement, the energy level of the "young man" was still displayed at a little more than three, basically no difference from before.
After repeated tests, the result was still the same. Another two testers tested separately. They had to confirm that the energy level of the "young man" was only a little more than three points.
Therefore, the reason for killing the black armored monsters could only be found from the monsters themselves. Maybe the back of their heads was a fatal weakness. Unfortunately, the situation was urgent at that time, so they didn't have the time to bring out a body of that kind of monster for analysis.
However, what another group of scientists were doing attracted the "young man".
Because he had made a great contribution, and because he was the only one who had killed the black armored monsters, the scientists still needed his help to describe the process. Therefore, in the scientific research base, there were not too many strict restrictions on him. He could walk around within the normal scope of authority. He saw that the group of scientists were persuading a blue-haired woman who was rescued from a dark underground cave.
The blue-haired woman had a big belly. Obviously, she had been pregnant for a long time and was probably about to give birth. However, she seemed to be extremely disgusted by the "baby" on the ground in her belly. She tried to kill it several times to abort it.
The scientists kept persuading her, telling her that if she killed the fetus at this time, her life would also be in danger. Also, the fetus in her belly was very valuable to the research, so the base would apply for a medal for her contribution.
However, the blue-haired woman's attitude was very firm. The scientists could only temporarily keep an eye on her and find a way to give birth as soon as possible.
"She should have mated with a monster a few generations later. Her evolution seems to have accelerated," a young scientist explained to the "young man". A young scientist explained to the 'young man', "According to the description of your teammates, the fetus in her womb may already have the potential to think on its own. After it is born, it may have self-awareness and even learn our language."
The "young man" was puzzled. "Aren't they all animals?"
The young scientist scratched his head and said, "That's puzzling. Normal animals can't evolve intelligence and consciousness in just a few years. Therefore, there is a view in the team that they were originally animals that degenerated from intelligent creatures. Now, they may be recovering their evolutionary ability and becoming 'human' again."
The "young man" was a little touched and asked again, "After degenerating for so long, can they be found?"
The young scientist shook his head and said, "The information is incomplete, and the theoretical basis is also lacking. We can't analyze the mechanism, so we can only record this phenomenon first. Sigh, Planet 187 is getting closer and closer. Maybe one day we will also become animals in captivity for alien creatures, waiting for a long time to find ourselves again."
The "young man" was shocked. Find himself? But how to find himself, and how to find himself?
And before finding where his hometown was, what was the uneasiness that he had to solve?
These days, he vaguely realized that no one could answer this question. The blue-haired old man from St. Prentice University couldn't answer it, the cone-shaped alien spaceship couldn't answer it, and now this young scientist couldn't answer it either. Because this question could only be answered by himself!
No one else could answer this question.
…
Late at night, after seeing Zhuo Ma, he looked at the quiet starry sky in the empty training ground of the camp and kept thinking in a strange way.
If these thoughts were spoken out and expressed in words, it would definitely make people laugh, because they were not things that could be expressed in words.
But he was deeply immersed in them.
Gradually, he realized that there were two places that he had to go to.
One was near the Hull residence, where he felt inexplicably irritable and hostile. At that time, he thought it was because he was hungry and had been provoked by that young master. But now that he thought about it, it didn't seem like that was the case. Although hunger was unbearable, he rarely felt irritable because of it, and the hostile aura was not caused by that young master either. He did not care about those people.
In that case, the problem must be that something nearby had "attracted" him, just like the cone-shaped black hole and the Hull convoy he encountered at the stronghold's construction site.
It was the Hull family again!
The other time was when he saw a large stone stele in the black hole. At that time, he was quite a distance away, so he did not feel anything. But now that he thought about it, how could there be such an unnatural thing in there?
For some reason, the young scientist's words made him feel that the accelerated recovery of the monsters' self-awareness seemed to have something to do with that stone stele. Coupled with the text in the box, it made him even more suspicious.
Out of these two places, one of them might be the "armor" mentioned by the cone-shaped alien spaceship. Although he did not think the cone-shaped alien spaceship was right, he still wanted to go and have a look.
In the silence, his figure turned into a curved line and silently crossed the sky above the Sacred City.
He decided to go to the Hull family first. The abnormalities had only occurred because he had interacted with them twice, so this place was the most suspicious.
The end of the curved line landed on the roof of the room he had been waiting for. But it only lasted for a moment before he turned into another curved line and shot west.
This time, he was fully focused. As soon as he arrived, he sensed that the faint feeling was coming from the west.
And that was where the shrine was!
Without pausing, he immediately went to the source of the feeling.
No one had discovered him in the curved line for the time being. The majestic shrine was still as quiet and solemn as usual.
In a tall and magnificent building, there were two young girls of 12 or 13 years old. Their hair was draped over their shoulders, and they were dressed in pure white chiffon dresses. They should have been at the age of innocence, but they had to put on a serious and adorable expression as they prayed in the shrine.
It was late at night. Probably because they were a little tired and there was no one around, the two young girls sneaked out of bed.
"The Head Deacon probably won't come to check tonight, right?" the slightly taller girl asked in a small voice filled with fear.
"I heard he went to the Great Divine Mountain with the Hull family's old master." The slightly thinner girl held her stomach and said, "Every time I pray, I'm not allowed to eat the day before. I'm starving."
The slightly thinner girl looked around and said, "Wait here, I'll go steal a few."
The slightly thinner girl looked worriedly at the majestic divine painting in the shrine, which depicted the religious art of the supreme god's grace to the human world. She nervously said, "This will anger the Lord …"
The slightly taller girl also seemed a little scared, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "It should be fine. I heard that other saintesses also secretly eat, and it seems that they are also fine."
The slightly thinner girl hesitated for a long time before lowering her head and saying, "Fine."
After receiving her support, the slightly taller girl seemed to have gained some courage. She didn't dare to look at the divine painting on the wall and quietly slipped away.
At this moment, only the slightly thinner girl was left in the shrine. It was so empty that she seemed to be a little scared. She hurriedly knelt down and prayed to the front of the shrine, "Oh merciful and almighty Lord, I have sinned, I have secretly eaten …"
Just as she finished speaking, she seemed to hear a gust of wind. Then, an almost naked figure landed in front of her.
The little girl was immediately scared out of her wits. Just as she was about to scream, she saw the figure stretch out a hand, and one of the priest's clothes in the shrine flew into "its" hand. Then, the figure put on the clothes and turned around. His expression seemed to be very surprised, probably not expecting to see a small figure kneeling here.
But when the little girl saw that face clearly, she immediately froze on the spot as if she had been petrified. Then, a great fear attacked her little head. Her little body trembled violently under the gauze clothes, and her whole body went limp as she crawled on the cold stone floor of the hall. She closed her eyes tightly, as if looking at that face for one more second was a blasphemy and a great sin!
"M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-
The figure took a step forward as if to help her up. She crawled backward in fear, still not daring to raise her head. Her body was still trembling slightly.
That silhouette was the "young man". He could feel that the trace of feeling was deep under his feet, but he could not break through the ground. It would cause too much of a commotion and alert all the guards in the Grand Temple.
"You are the Saintess?" He looked at the little girl at his feet and frowned, not quite understanding what was going on.
"I have sinned, please punish me," the little girl said with a trembling voice.
"What have you sinned?" The "young man" did not know why she said that he was some kind of master. He did not want to stay here any longer, so he said casually.
"I have stolen food, it is disrespectful." The little girl replied in panic, her head almost buried in the gauze clothes.
"Of course you have to eat when you are hungry. I am the same, but I am not your master." The "young man" said and disappeared in a curve.
He did not expect that his last sentence would bring a devastating blow to the little girl.
After a while, when the slightly taller little girl happily returned to the hall with a few food in her hands, she looked at the blood stains in the hall. The food in her hands suddenly fell to the ground, and she screamed shrilly …
The "young man" did not know what happened in the hall at the moment. He was rushing to the Dark Bottom Cave.
After the battle during the day, the pale monsters seemed to have retreated from here, and he did not encounter them along the way.
In the big cave, he could see many dead little monsters lying in the mud. Some were shot by the soldiers, and some died of unknown causes.
He did not stay here for long, and immediately rushed to the Inner Cave where he found the box. He was worried that the monsters had taken the stone tablet away.
In fact, it was similar to what he was worried about. When he arrived at the Inner Cave, many monsters were moving the huge stone tablet.
He looked at them, and they looked at him suddenly. The air seemed to freeze.
However, he did not attack, and the monsters did not take the initiative to attack. They were not far away, as if they were in a stalemate.
At this distance, he could see many words engraved on the stone tablet. However, when he saw those words, his head buzzed, as if there was a magnificent voice echoing —
"My true self, banished from the void … in the center of the sword!"
"My true self …"
"My true self …"
…
That voice was almost omnipresent, shaking his entire soul.
Even after the monsters had disappeared with the stone tablet, the sentence still echoed in his ears.
"My true self!"
His eyes seemed to be clear the moment he raised his head.
