Han Xiao digested the information for a while before opening the door and returning to the interrogation room. Aesop, Harrison, and Rody all looked at him.
"Your Excellency Black Star, I …"
Rody wanted to ask, but Han Xiao raised his hand to stop him.
"I already know your basic situation. Follow me for the time being. I'll try my best to solve your problem."
As for how to deal with Rody, Han Xiao thought for a while.
The current Rody was only a semi-finished product. He had not completed the transformation and could not control his own abilities. Perhaps only after the complete transformation could he become the Germinal Organization's' Child of Destiny 'and have a powerful gift of prediction.
However, once the transformation was completed, Rody's personality would mutate and be replaced by a new personality, which was equivalent to death in a sense.
A stable and controllable diviner was far more useful than this half-baked one who fainted from time to time. However, since he had accepted the mission, he could not sit back and watch the transformation go smoothly. Therefore, Han Xiao decided to do his best and find a way to stop Rody's transformation. If he could not stop it, he did not mind getting a new 'Child of Destiny'.
Given Rody's current state, it was necessary to control his range of action.
Han Xiao specifically asked Philip to open a new private laboratory above the spaceship. He asked Harrison to bring Rody there, lock him in a nourishment chamber, and inject him with a hypnotic agent to facilitate research. Rody had no choice but to hold on to his only hope and cooperate.
After the two of them left, only Han Xiao and Aesop were left in the room. They looked at each other.
"I saw you go out for a while. Did you find something?" Aesop was curious.
"The source of this guy's mutation might be due to the influence of a special Primal Esper Ability …"
Han Xiao briefly explained some information about the Child of Destiny and his experience with the Germinal Organization.
"Child of Destiny … never heard of it," Aesop mumbled.
"That's normal. I don't know much either."
Aesop coughed and said thoughtfully, "I don't know much about your past, but assuming that the 'Child of Destiny' you met in the past was a random product of the Primal Arcana like Rody now, why would there be two spawns on Planet Aquamarine? If it's really random in the universe, do you think there would be such a coincidence? "
What's this? I've seen even more coincidences …
This thought flashed through Han Xiao's mind, but he didn't show it on his face. He echoed, "It is indeed a coincidence."
"According to this train of thought, since the mutation happened at the Information Form level, I feel that Blue Star might have something special in this regard, such as the condensation of a special fate line or something … I'm not talking nonsense. I've seen many people who were born with different fate lines …"
Halfway through his sentence, Aesop stopped and sized up Han Xiao thoughtfully.
"… That's right. The Blue Star produced someone like you and another Beyond Grade A, Hella. Your rise has caused the mother planet to become different. Perhaps this is the reason."
Han Xiao wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything. He just patted Aesop's shoulder.
— — Smart people are so easy to fool. I didn't even have to use any force, and you've already convinced yourself.
"Thanks. If it weren't for your prophecy, I definitely wouldn't have discovered this."
Jokes aside, Han Xiao was still quite grateful for Aesop's notice.
"You don't have to thank me. Floating Dragon and Blue Star are neighbors now. I'm just ensuring the safety of the living environment. Furthermore, among the people I know, prophecies are the most effective in your hands. I believe in your ability and character." Aesop waved his hand.
Hearing this, Han Xiao could not help but feel like he was dreaming.
In the past, Han Xiao was quite envious of Aesop's powerful connections. However, as he gradually rose, he had unknowingly become the most important person Aesop knew.
Whenever there was a problem, Aesop would be the first to discuss it with him, making him feel reliable.
As he spoke, Aesop could not help but sigh.
"I've lived for so long and can be considered to have seen a lot, but you're the most amazing person in my long life. I've never seen another person as miraculous as you. The first time I saw you, even though I felt that your future was limitless, I never thought that in just a few short decades, you would reach a height that countless people could only dream of … Perhaps history will forget me, but it will never forget you. "
"… We were just talking, why did you suddenly start bragging? It's quite embarrassing. "
Han Xiao laughed and had a 'don't stop' expression on his face.
"Maybe I'm really getting old, and I'm getting more and more emotional." Aesop sighed and sincerely said, "All these years, it's all thanks to you for helping Floating Dragon."
Seeing this, Han Xiao also stopped smiling and slowly said, "My achievements can't be separated from Floating Dragon's nurturing. If not for Ames' protection, I wouldn't have been so successful. Therefore, there's no need to thank me. What I gave Floating Dragon is what I should give in return."
Just like in business, it was easier to develop with a backer than to start from scratch. When he was still weak, Floating Dragon had been of great help to him. Therefore, although his current position in the universe far exceeded Floating Dragon's, he still maintained respect for Floating Dragon's members, treated them as equals, and never stopped supporting them.
"Having the opportunity to support someone like you might be Floating Dragon's fortune."
Aesop's expression was complicated. There was helplessness and relief.
"Ames is like my daughter, but you also know that all I can do is foresight. I don't have as much power as you guys. The current you can protect her better than I can …
"I've lived for many years, and I've never begged anyone, but today, I'm begging you to protect Ames. I'll leave her to you. I hope that even after hundreds or thousands of years, you can still remember what you said today."
Then, he looked deeply at Han Xiao, pushed open the door, and walked out of the room. His slightly hunched back disappeared at the end of the corridor.
"Old man …"
Han Xiao watched as he left. He let out a sigh of relief. He understood Aesop's intention.
Although Aesop was a long-lived species, he was old and did not have much combat power. Even if he knew how to foresee, there was a limit to what he could do. He was far from omnipotent.
He had foreseen a storm that could happen in the future, and the disaster in the prophecy made him feel a long-lost worry. He was afraid that he did not have the ability to protect Ames, so he was willing to put down his face and privately ask Black Star to be the protector of Floating Dragon. In Aesop's eyes, only Black Star had the motivation and ability to protect Ames at the same time. This was the best candidate he could find.
However, Ames would definitely not say these words, so Aesop knew that only he could say it, and he had to say it.
This was why the old man changed his usual behavior and took the initiative to ask for cooperation. He was shocked by his own prophecy.
"This old man suppressed his nature of seeking excitement and stayed in a boring place like Floating Dragon for decades. Although Ames grounded him in name, if Aesop wanted to leave, he would definitely have a way to leave. Now, because he's worried about Ames' future, he put down his face and came to beg me … Time will tell."
Han Xiao smiled.
In his previous life, Ames destroyed Floating Dragon in order to take revenge. From the looks of it now, Aesop deserved such treatment.
However, with Han Xiao here this time, he would not let Floating Dragon repeat the same mistake.
…
After sorting out his emotions, Han Xiao returned to his office and summoned Philip.
He still remembered to check the owner of Soul Flame, so he used his authority to retrieve the information of that Primordial One 'Soul Emperor' from the dynasty's database and quickly browsed through it.
Soul Emperor's real name was Rovell Sissock. He also had nicknames like 'Soul Monarch' and 'Secret Spirit Master'. He was also one of the Primordial Ones. Before he became the owner of Soul Flame, he was already a powerful Beyond Grade A psychic Esper.
This person was born in an advanced civilization and was a tyrant during the exploration era.
At that time, the Beyond Grade As had just been born. Compared to other types of abilities, psychic Esper Abilities that had broken through the Calamity level were more difficult to deal with. The Soul Barrier that had not been upgraded could not stop Soul Emperor. He could easily penetrate the shields and armor to kill or control the crew. Very soon, he made a name for himself in the exploration era war.
After obtaining the Soul Flame, he was like a tiger that had grown wings. With his powerful personal abilities, he had conquered many cities for his own civilization and won many local battles. He had made great contributions countless times and received innumerable awards and honors. He was regarded as a hero and protector by the entire civilization.
However, as the advanced civilizations began to focus on researching Beyond Grade As, the short era where the Primordial Ones were unparalleled passed very quickly. The battles became more difficult, and Beyond Grade As started to die.
Soul Emperor was no exception. Although his performance was still strong and he was still a powerful unit in the galactic war, because he would be targeted every time he appeared, it was very difficult for him to play the same role as before. He could not rely on himself to change the situation of the war.
Coupled with the fact that his civilization kept losing in other battlefronts, the overall strategy of the civilization was seriously affected. The advantageous situation was gradually eroded by the enemy.
Therefore, Soul Emperor's combat style gradually became more aggressive. Sometimes, even if he was injured, he would still try to turn the situation around. Although it was not enough, one could see his vision and loyalty to contribute to the civilization.
The Primordial Ones of the past were different from the current Beyond Grade As. Many of them did not have the thought of being independent. In the exploration era war, the fate of an individual and the fate of a civilization were almost tied together.
In the tireless battles, the turning point soon arrived. Soul Emperor's civilization and the many enemies used two Star Systems as the main battleground. They invested a huge amount of troops and started a decisive battle.
Countless fleets tore at each other on one battlefront after another. The situation of the battle changed rapidly. At the most heated stage, this civilization had to make a choice …
On one hand, Soul Emperor was targeted and was heavily surrounded. He was exhausted from the battle and urgently needed reinforcements.
On the other hand, an extremely important battlefront was in danger and also needed reinforcements.
If this battlefront collapsed, it would cause a chain reaction that could cause the entire battle to slide into the abyss of failure. On the other hand, if they defended this battlefront, they would gain a huge strategic advantage and have a much higher chance of winning. It was also because of this reason that the enemy was constantly sending reinforcements to this battlefront.
Most of the troops of this civilization had already been invested in the battlefront, leaving only a small number of rapid reaction fleets that could attack. It was known that if the reinforcements were evenly distributed, there would be a chance of rescuing Soul Emperor, but they would definitely not be able to defend the important battlefront.
This was when the choice came … how to distribute the troops, which side to focus on, and how to choose.
For this civilization, this choice did not seem difficult at all.
They gave up on Soul Emperor and chose to protect the overall situation, sending all the reinforcements to the important battlefront. The final result was just as they thought. They successfully defended the battlefront, revived the stalemate, and gradually defeated the enemy. In the end, they won this battle.
Of course, the Spirit Emperor had sacrificed himself. The civilization claimed that the Spirit Emperor's sacrifice was the key to their victory. Therefore, the entire country mourned for him and worshipped him. They also hosted his funeral with the highest standard ceremony and awarded him the "Valverde Ginta" medal, which represented the highest honor of the civilization. A monument to the Spirit Emperor was built on the mother planet to remember him.
However, in the ever-changing exploration era war, there was no lack of enemies. The key victory of this civilization could not always be their protective talisman.
In the end, this civilization did not become the winner of the exploration era and was destroyed by a stronger civilization. They were almost wiped out and became the losers of elimination.
These were the general details of Soul Emperor's life. The file had already marked 'Died in Battle'.
It was a long time ago, and the exploration era was a time of war. The database of the three Universal Civilizations only had general information about Soul Emperor. There was no detailed information. As Soul Emperor's civilization perished, a lot of information about him was buried by history.
After reading the information, Han Xiao fell into deep thought. He was already used to what happened to Soul Emperor and was only interested in the whereabouts of Soul Flame.
"Spirit Emperor is the last known owner of Soul Flame. Could this guy be Oathkeeper? Either Soul Emperor faked his death, or Oathkeeper was someone else who took Soul Flame from Soul Emperor. Therefore, there's a chance that he's one of the enemy Beyond Grade As who participated in that battle, but there's also a chance that he picked up some scraps …
This time, Han Xiao suddenly thought of the Primordial Ones who were resurrected in his previous life. Soul Emperor did not seem to be among them. His eyes sparkled.
Looks like the possibility of Soul Emperor faking his death is not small …
Han Xiaoxin pondered.
Many Primordial Ones were resurrected in his previous life. If he waited until the Calamity of the Supers appeared, he might be able to find someone who knew …
However, at this time, Han Xiao suddenly thought of something and was stunned.
Wait a minute!
Someone who knew … was not just the Primordial Ones who were resurrected by the Holy Covenant.
The Underworld dimension that Hella inherited seemed to have the Primordial Hero Spirits as well!
"That's amazing …"
Han Xiao's eyes widened.
Every sip and every peck, could it be predetermined?
Or could it be that collecting the Luck Glow owners could really improve the overall luck of the universe?
