0147 Chapter 4 The End of the Ordinary (Section 18)
Although no one wants to be someone else's substitute, at this moment Zhen Cheng just hopes that the little sister in her arms can find support and get better soon.
After all, her mind was filled with the complicated situation and the motives and plans of all parties at this time, and she really had no energy to consider the emotional issues of her companions.
The primary goal at the moment is to survive. As for whether I will have more ideas in the future... let's talk about it.
Love Logan seemed to vaguely feel Zhen Cheng's strangeness, she was not her Modesty after all; and she seemed to be extremely repelled by her own weakness, almost just hugging Zhen Cheng and letting go.
Then, she reached out from the navel-baring bra under the open red leather jacket and took out the pendant hanging around her neck. She tapped her fingers lightly and revealed the treasured photos inside to Zhen Cheng:
"If you haven't found out everything yet, here are the rest of the answers."
With just one glance, Zhen Cheng was shocked on the spot.
"She...is really my sister?"
Looking at the photo of a white-haired girl who is 99% similar to her when she was young, even Zhen Cheng's big heart that can't be changed and brain circuits that are almost to the limit of human beings can't help but shut down for a moment.
She has twelve half-brothers and sisters, as well as two younger sisters she has never met and an infant brother. But among all these blood relatives, no one can look so... exactly like her.
.
If he hadn't been able to clearly remember all the important things around him since he was three years old, Zhen Cheng might have doubted whether he had ever really had a twin sister who was abducted.
Of course, this was just a thought. Traffickers who could abduct Zhen's legitimate daughter did not yet exist in this world. And compared to the twins who were at least slightly different, she even had an intuition that the girl in the photo was hers.
Human cloning is more appropriate.
Although this sounds like science fiction technology even to Zhen Cheng, who knows how far those madmen in Mariana's laboratory can achieve it?
In this way, it seems more understandable that he was regarded as the object of admiration by Miss Modesty, whose existence she had never heard of. However, more questions followed.
It’s not like she was confined to a killer orphanage isolated from the world, had to be busy with life and death training every day, and didn’t have any channels to understand the world. How could she know nothing about these things?
On the contrary, carrying the family head's expectations for the heir, she can read almost all top-secret information in the intelligence agency at will.
Because of this, all the secrets revealed to him by Ai Luogensi gave Zhen Cheng an extremely unbelievable sense of alienation.
She felt like a screenwriter who had written a good script and was full of confidence. When the work was performed, she realized that it was not the actor who didn't understand the script, but herself.
The clown is myself again... This is a feeling of being inadvertently being plotted by God again.
A nauseating feeling she was all too familiar with.
"I can't say that I understand all the specific details. I can only tell you the parts that I know. These are what she said personally, and there is no way they are false,"
Ai Luogensi stuffed the pendant back into her bra, and her face had returned to its usual arrogant expression: "In short, your blood relationship is certain, but it cannot be understood in the same way as ordinary sisters.
Modesty told me about the curse in your Zhen family's bloodline, and also mentioned that there was an ancient prophecy that described a possible way to break the curse..."
Shaking away the strange reluctance of the cruel calculation in his mind, Zhen Cheng nodded and responded: "Yes, I know that prophecy.
That would require our people to mix with the blood of some ancient beast, and also complete some weird rituals that were not clearly stated in the prophecy.
However, the prophecy also mentioned that using this method to break the curse in the blood would require an entire generation to bear the price of near-annihilation.
Therefore, in our ancient family, which has been passed down since the Stone Age, no one has ever made such an unrealistic attempt since ancient times.
Moreover, where did the ancient beast come from in this world? Even if my crazy dad really wants to implement this plan, he can't do anything, right?"
Alogensi smiled and nodded: "Yes, I think so too. But Modesty told me very firmly that your father is indeed trying unremittingly.
In fact, according to her, such attempts have been started since ancient times. And your father is the one closest to success in the history of mankind. It is natural that you don't understand, because only the head of the family has access to it.
secret.
Not only did he find the bloodline of the mythical beast from nowhere, but he actually followed the steps and completed the beginning of the ritual mentioned in the prophecy."
This time, Zhen Cheng did not refute.
Her first instinct was to pursue something as dangerous as ancient bloodline. Even if the crazy father really did it, the other two major families would not be able to just sit idly by.
But she immediately thought of the [Stix Project] that had been going on for an unknown length of time.
Zhen is pursuing the ancient beasts to break the blood curse; Scarry is collecting ancient relics in order to seek immortality; as for Severant...who knows what kind of death they are secretly planning?
This is enough to get a glimpse of it from the mysterious white-haired transfer student who bears the name of their family and destroys the world with a wave of his hand.
The three cornerstones that laid the foundation for a stable world order may have been the hidden dangers that led to the destruction of the world from the beginning.
"So, Modesty is actually using me as a template to create an artificial life that combines my father's family bloodline and some of the characteristics of ancient mythical beasts. That's why she knows this?" Zhen Cheng asked with a wry smile:
"The reason why she appeared in Songhai Heart Orphanage and then joined Thetis's [Styx] project was not due to the exchange of interests between the two families, nor was it due to the tricks you did in the orphanage; it was due to the Zhen family
A huge gamble with Scarry for their own hidden dark purposes?
But in the end, of course, the plans of both families failed. So our poor sister became a victim?"
Not wanting to irritate the pain in Ai Luogansi's heart, Zhen Cheng said the last part a little cautiously. However, she didn't want the young lady next to her to show a more considerate and compassionate expression than she did. She smiled bitterly and put her cold hands gently against Zhen Cheng.
Clear and soft hair: "Think again, my dear sister."
Looking at the pair of red eyes full of pity so close at hand, Zhen Cheng's head buzzed.
She remembered what Logans said not long ago: There is indeed another you in this world, a girl who has shouldered 90% of your misfortune.
