The city of Tarsonis is a black dragon with silver blood flowing. Its majestic scale claws and wings are shrouded in the morning mist. This unparalleled super metropolis is the center of the Tyranid Federation, and it should be
The center of the world.
"don't want!'
Novabelle Annabelle Terra woke up from her sleep with horror, and sat up from her bed covered in cold sweat.

A floor-to-ceiling window faced the gradually brightening sky, which was dotted with stars. Thousands of giant buildings and thousands of roads and streets shone brightly under the night. Sometimes, silver meteor showers streaked across, which were the stars of the spaceship passing through.
The traces left behind by passing through the atmosphere of Tarsonis.
The giant chandelier at the top of the room is fifty feet above the ground. Most of its parts are made of mirror-like natural crystal, which can reflect light of various colors and create water-like light and shadow.
The shield stand device designed by Kemorian Lars Technology Company and ATVX Company covers the entire Terra Sky Tower, and the polygonal matrix network occasionally appears to block all flying objects judged to be threatening.
Larger ones will be shot down by laser cannons.
The Terra Sky Tower is one of the buildings closest to the sky in the main city of Tarsonis. Looking at the brilliantly lit city buildings, anyone who has been to Tarsonis will be deeply impressed by this spectacular building.
"What is that?" She turned on the wall lamp with complicated ornate decorations beside the bed, stroked her aching forehead with her right hand, and looked around at her warmly decorated room.
An intelligent drone servant driven by a vtol turbine fan and a vertical three-dimensional stabilization device automatically turned on, and unfolded in front of it a holographic projection screen with an indigo hue, on which was the weather interface of the main city of Tarsonis.
Nova's iaa-115 horsefly robot is a machine servant with humanized design and extremely high intelligence. It is the latest design of the robot manufacturing factory owned by the Terra family - Nova is Novabe Annabelle.
La Terra's family calls her by her nickname.
"I saw... blood and death." Nova opened her eyes wide, her pupils trembling.
Scenes of scenes flashed past Nova's eyes quickly like a revolving lantern. Gunshots were heard everywhere in the darkness. Terra family security personnel fell into a pool of blood one after another. The screams of broken metal and the screams of people dying seemed to still be there.
There was a ringing in her ears, and at the last moment she saw the face of her father Constantine.
"Dad!" Nova got off the boat, put on her shoes, and walked quickly to the closet.
Under the pale golden light of the morning sun, Nova was running in her nightgown. Her smooth and tight skin was as smooth as suet, and her golden hair was shining with golden light.
Nova is ten years old.
Her body has begun to grow, and the loose nightgown cannot cover the hazy curves and beauty between a girl and a woman.
The iaa horsefly robot servant is still following Nova, and the hum of the turbine blades is extremely soft and unheard. The Terra family mostly employs human servants, but robots still occupy a place in the family's daily life.
"Zebediah! Zebediah!" Nova put on a beautiful wraparound sundress, walked out of the room and came to the door of her brother Zebediah Terra's room, hitting her with two consecutive hits per second. The speed of ringing the doorbell.
"Kid, what are you doing?" After a while, a boy wearing a sponge-colored nightcap came out. The beautiful eyes inherited from the family showed a dead-eye look due to sleepiness and surprise in the past.
"It's only six hundred and a half, Nova, what happened to you today?" Zebediah poked her head out, but was not ready to let her sister in.
The bloodline of the Terra family has given Zebediah outstanding appearance and light blond hair. He is several years older than Nova and much taller. In front of her brother, Nova is really a little kid, not even taller than him. Chest high.
Zebediah is the second child of Constantine Terra and the only boy. As expected, he will become the heir of the Terra family.
"Someone killed daddy," Nova said to Zebediah.
"Children are not happy to say this word." Zebediah raised her eyebrows and widened her eyes: "Who would want to kill dad?
"Are you having nightmares again?" He stepped aside a little, indicating that Nova could come in from the side: You can sleep with me.'
"Well...Nova pouted, and her face puffed up like a balloon.
"What I said is true. I had a dream. I dreamed that many people died. Anna, Raknock, Anson...Ge also saw servants." She mentioned many Terra family servants in one breath. It is a bit strange that a ten-year-old noble daughter can remember so many servants' names.
"How is that possible? Stop thinking wildly. It was a dream, and dreams are not real." Zebediah blinked. He knew that his sister was different from ordinary people. To be precise, her understanding of emotions was His perceptual ability is much stronger than that of ordinary people. In ordinary families, he would be called a psychic child.
Generally speaking, even if children with this kind of talent are not sent to the Ghost Academy of Tarsonis by their parents, they will suffer from ostracism and bullying during their childhood. Only the most caring parents and families can ensure this. Children can grow up healthily.
Fortunately, the Terra family is one of the founding families of the Terra Federation, and no one can take away Constantine Terra's most precious little daughter from his hands.
"Okay, before you fall asleep, I'm going to tell you another story about General Augustus defeating the big bad Duke, until you fall asleep." Zebediah never thought that Nova had telepathic abilities. Just different from others.
Zebediah is a fan of Revolutionary Army Marshal Augustus Mengsk, and he has always condemned the atrocities committed by the federal army against the people of Korhal.
Occasionally Zebediah would hear the servants at home calling Nova a witch and a terrible child, but this would undoubtedly lead to his anger. There is no kinder child in the world than his sister Nova.
The fate of Zebediah and Augustus comes from the birthday party of Andrea Tagore, the leader of the Tagore family a few years ago. At that time, they only met briefly. There is no doubt that Augustus is
The most outstanding young generation of nobles in Zebediah's memory.
"Ouch_" Nova frowned when she heard Zebediah's words: "I'll go find dad myself."
Nova doesn't like Augustus Mengsk.
To be precise, Nova doesn't like death. Even those who live in pain can make her cry. The scene of corpses everywhere is even more intolerable. Nova doesn't like Augustus, she doesn't like this.
Bring real people.
Four years ago, Nova had an affair with the man named Augustus.
Of course, Nova didn't have a deep impression of Augustus. What she remembered most was her mother Annabella's imagination about Augustus.
What's so good about that kind of man?
"Okay, okay, let's go find dad." Zebediah casually put on a coat and walked out. Although Zebediah has always been a humble and elegant nobleman to outsiders, he
Everything at home is quite casual.
"Where's Clara?" Nova just looked at Zebediah again.
Clara is the eldest sister in Tyra's family. She has reached the age of marriage but still stays at home.
"Clara has a lesson in ancient court etiquette today, and it would not be wise to wake her up." Zebediah shrank her head, remembering the scene when her sister beat her up when she was a child.
"Forget it, I swear I will never pay attention to her again in this life." He turned around coolly.
"It will all work out anyway," Nova said.
"It won't happen this time." Zebediah raised her eyebrows: "I misjudged the person. I originally thought Clara was a like-minded partner, but it turns out that she and I were in conflict with Marshal Augustus.
There is an unbridgeable gap in interpretation.”
"What does she think of Marshal Augustus? How could such a man marry a vulgar woman like her?
Ever since she met Augustus Mengsk at the ball, Clara Annabelle Terra could never forget him. Clara was not an infatuated woman. She was handed over to him when she was only twenty years old.
I had many boyfriends, but I thought no one was as good as Augustus.
"That shouldn't be said in person." Nova sighed.
"Clara should have faced this fact long ago. She is unruly and willful, neither cute nor understanding." Zebediah pulled Nova and left.
Zebediah and her sister Nova walked through the wide corridor of their home together. It took them several minutes to cross the huge rooms.
The Terra family servants who got up early to clean each and every one of them bowed to say hello to Zebediah and Nova, and they had long been accustomed to this.
"Efresia, where is daddy?" Zebediah knew a tall young woman with curly red hair among the servants. She was a mistress of her father Constantine.
"He is in the reception room on the top floor." Children like Efresia and Zebediah have always gotten along better, and even care about them more than their mother.
"Meeting the ambassador of Umo Yang?" Nova asked. She can read minds, and of course Everesia's thoughts cannot be hidden.
"You can't tell others. Three months ago, the Federal Assembly expelled the last foreign minister of the United States of Umoyan and announced that no Umoyan people can legally enter the country. If others know about this, you
My father will have a headache again." Everestia is a beautiful woman who always has a smile on her lips.
"I know." Nova said.
"You are really a smart little angel." Everestia leaned down and said.
"Take us to find daddy." Nova said to Efresia.
'He's in danger.'
"...You have a nightmare again." Efrecia said with a smile.
"Yes, but many of my dreams have come true," Nova said.
"But there are many more things that haven't happened." Everestia put her finger to her rosy mouth.
"You are just too scared. The current news is reporting that the Earth and the rebels are invading the Federation territory. Many immigrant worlds have been affected. But Tarsonis is absolutely safe, Nova. As long as the moon still shines,
Tarsonis would not have fallen."
"Please, Everestia, take me to find him. Dad is in danger." Nova's eyes turned red, which made Everestia's heart tremble.
"As long as this kind of dream come true is proven to be true once, we cannot ignore the possibility of it happening again." Zebediah looked at Efrecia with her green eyes.
"Efrecia, when you meet dad, tell me that I asked for a price and did this."
"Okay, I'll take you to wait for him outside the reception room." Efresia took Nova's little hand.
"However, if the enemy does come, the one you need to worry about most is yourselves rather than your father. He is surrounded by a large number of guards and agents.
"Okay, I want to know where Augustus's army went? Is there any news today?" Zebediah asked Efresia on the way to the reception room.
"You don't have to ask every day, but I want to tell you that Pridewater (the world on the edge of the Federation) fell today." Everestia sighed softly.
"When will they come to Tarsonis to take me away?" Zebediah sighed.
"Your father is waiting for you to take charge of Terra's house." Efresia was a little more stern: "Do you want to piss him off to death?"
"Wouldn't it be enough to let Clara be the heir?" Zebediah didn't care: "I want to be a hero like Augustus.
"Many people do not regard him as a hero." Efrecia said: "Don't you know that what he wants to overthrow is the founding family like the Terra family.'
"He is dad's best friend. Our family has been secretly helping Korhal and the revolutionary army." Zebediah revealed a shocking secret.
"Who knows if he will destroy the Terra family after he achieves his goal. Even if he doesn't do that, Augustus will definitely take the opportunity to weaken the Terra family so that he can more easily control the family and its subordinates.
Huge corporate assets." Efrecia is obviously more than just a lover, she has quite deep access to the inside story:
"Never trust a person who has real power."
"Augustus was different," Zebediah said.
"Why is it different?" Everestia asked.
"I don't know." Zebediah shrugged: "Who knows, I don't care." "Uh... Suddenly, Nova grabbed Zebediah's pants with her right hand, and she was so strong that she almost pulled them
Teared off.
A twisted figure shrouded in black smoke appeared in Nova's mind, followed by severed limbs and the dead man's wide-eyed expression of horror.
"Don't take off my pants." Zebediah pulled up his pants.
"how's it going?'
The next moment, a huge explosion came from the top floor of the Terra family.
After that, several servants who were wiping the statue in the corridor pulled off a rag, took out a miniature electromagnetic rifle from their work clothes and ran towards Nova and Zebedia. The other servants were frightened by this turn of events.
