Looking at the shocked Soshiyang, Li suddenly spoke to comfort him:
"In fact, everyone is essentially a combination of the genes of the father and the mother, but the Xerxes brothers are more special to the mother after all... The mother said that she was pregnant with the Xerxes brothers for fifty years, and he
On the day of his birth, the whole sky of Terra screamed, and my father stood on the top of the Himalayas holding a long sword to fight against the power of the evil god."
Soshyan came back to his senses and suddenly noticed something.
"You said before that the composition of the original body has a mysterious power. Isn't that Xerxes who was born in the laboratory?"
Li was silent for a moment and shook his head.
"I don't know. My mother has never mentioned it. She has always been tight-lipped about how Brother Xerxes was born... I guess, well, it may have something to do with a place called the Drift Sanctuary, because after the death of Brother Xerxes
A long time ago, my mother had a fierce quarrel with the visiting Malcador, and I accidentally heard her mention this name, which was related to the brothers Xerxes."
Drifting Sanctuary, when he heard this term, Soshiyang was suddenly startled. He subconsciously thought that it was the place where he had a relationship with Veronica...
However, he didn't say it out loud, he just asked calmly:
"But if that's the case, why was Xerxes thrown into the same place as the other Primarchs -"
Halfway through, Soshyan stopped. He recalled what Li had said before. It seemed that Erda had the power of prophecy, and it was possible that the other party had foreseen the death of Xerxes.
Li looked at the stunned Soshiyang and said meaningfully:
"In ancient Terra, there once was a myth. A great god-king overthrew his cruel father. However, when he became king, he heard the prophecy that he would be overthrown by his son. So as soon as his children were born, they were
He devoured it until his wife could no longer bear to hide the last child, who eventually overthrew his equally brutal father."
After listening, Soshiyang stared, lowered his head slightly, and sat back in his chair in a daze.
After a long time, he raised his head slightly and asked in a daze:
"I feel like I'm living a huge scam."
Li just pointed at his head.
"Some primitive religions in ancient Terra believed that everything in the universe was just a dream of a great god. When this god wakes up, everything will be in vain until the next dream is opened, so it is difficult to say whether the world we see is just a dream.
, but actually telling you this is not to make you worry about it, because..."
"Because of what?"
Li spread his hands and said with a smile:
"You are not Xerxes."
Soshyan was stunned for a moment, then blinked, and finally choked out two words.
"Thank you."
"Ha, what's there to be thankful for?"
"Then...did Dorne go to Ctesiphon?"
Li shook his head.
"I don't know. In fact, I know far less than you think. After the great rebellion, I have been living alone in the ancient ruins of Prambanan. Most of my information about Malcador's plan comes from my mother occasionally.
reminder, but you also know that her current form is the same as that of her father, and it is not easy for her to walk in the mortal world in person. I can only contact her through vague dreams, and Dorn didn't say much when he found me.
"
"What about Waldo? He seems to have left something for Dorn..."
"Waldo...I'm not sure. I've always found this Adeptus Guards strange, but I've been excluded from the empire's high-level circles for a long time, and I don't like to deal with them. But what he left to Dorne is something I
There is a guess... I can’t say it’s a guess, it’s basically certain.”
"What is it?"
"Grey marrow."
"Graymarrow...you mean, Dorn was also involved in this plan?"
"I'm not 100% sure, but Donne should have some knowledge of this plan. As for whether he was involved or involved, I have limited abilities and cannot conduct an in-depth investigation. My mother is also unwilling to tell me too much. She is probably worried.
What danger am I in."
"Is this so..."
Soshyan sighed in disappointment.
"Li, can I ask you one last question?"
"Please say."
"The Emperor...why did he kill Xerxes?"
After hearing this question, Li lowered his head slightly, hid his face under his hood, and answered after a moment of silence:
"I have no idea."
"Li, do you really not know? Are you unwilling to tell me? Or can't you tell me?"
The other party raised his head and looked at Soshyan, his purple eyes full of sincere emotions.
"Soshyan, I really don't know... I only know that my mother went to see my father for a big quarrel that day. After that, my father temporarily put my mother under house arrest until Brother Xerxes... died. After my mother came back, she
She was sad, crying all day long, and resenting her father's ruthlessness. I could only understand some of it from her few words. If I had to say... I could only infer that there might be something wrong with the gray marrow, and this
It seems that the plan was initially carried out without telling his father, and maybe someone among them induced Xerxes... Ah, the only thing that is certain is that it was Waldo and Leman Russ who executed Xerxes. My personal guess is that
It was the weapons in their hands that could kill Xerxes."
"Their weapons..."
"My father once gave Waldor and Leman Russ a weapon each, which he forged himself, like two spears."
"Waldo was actually involved in this matter... Brother Said never said anything."
"etc..."
Li suddenly stretched out his withered arm wrapped in bandages.
"Who did you just say?"
"Uh... Waldo?"
"The one at the back."
"Brother Seid? Well, don't you know this man?"
Li shook his head.
"Tell me what's going on with him."
Then Soshyan told Brother Said's situation.
"...Anyway, what I know so far is that the first generation leader of the White Templar Chapter was named Brother Said, but he passed away, or disappeared, and the Brother Said I met was the Bewitcher. About
I have never received an answer to this matter, and the confused person has never responded..."
"That's it..."
"What's wrong, Li? What reminds you? Aren't you a Wall Watcher of the Imperial Fists? Why don't you know about such important figures within the White Templars and Astral Knights, who are supposed to be sub-groups?"
Li seemed to be lost in thought and did not immediately answer Soshyan's inquiry.
After a while, he said slowly:
"I understand, it's not that I don't know, it's that he didn't intend to let me know..."
"Who, who doesn't want you to know?"
Li did not answer directly, but looked at Soshiyang and asked:
"Do you know why I react so strongly to the name Syd?"
Soshyan shook his head.
"...My mother once gave each of her children a nickname. My nickname was Xiao Er, Xerxes's nickname was Haya, and Donne's nickname was... Said."
