Chitaki picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp without saying anything. Chromie touched his head. His whole head was hurting now. He was a little lucky now. Chitaki destroyed the thing without their consent. At least it was a secret.
He died in their hands. In addition, he was also scared. The old guys in the Council and Terenceus were simply crazy. They dared to get their hands on this thing. Knowing that an existence as powerful as the Federation had no choice in the end.
Abandoning that base must have caused a problem somewhere, and Chromie had finally seen the power of that half-finished product.
Chromie poured Chitaki a drink and said, "You did the right thing."
"I didn't say it was right or wrong. In fact, I feel very guilty. After all, it was a trophy that all of us risked our lives to get, and it was destroyed by me." Qiantaki shook his head.
"There is no need to say this. Let's forget about ruining this matter. Don't mention it again. It's just that I'm a little confused. How can you understand the words above? Those words seem to be some kind of secret language." Chromie asked doubtfully.
.
Chitaki took a deep breath and said, "That was taught to me by my mother. It is the local language from my mother's hometown. I don't understand why that stone tablet is written in that language."
Chromie nodded. After hearing Chitaki's answer, he probably understood something.
"Have you heard of that base?"
"No, but I actually made a mistake. When I was a child, my mother once told me a fairy tale. Mermaids are very dangerous. I always thought it was a fairy tale." Chitaki explained.
"Ahem, I don't blame you for this. If I were me, I would only think it was a fairy tale." Chromie replied with a smile.
"Well, do you have anything else you want to ask? In fact, I feel a lot more relaxed after saying it." Qiantaki breathed a sigh of relief.
"I have nothing more to ask. Let me tell you a story. It was when you told me the secret on the stone slab that I suddenly remembered it. This story was told to me by my mentor." Chromie thought for a few seconds.
said.
"Okay." Chitaki replied.
"A long, long time ago, when humans were still bound to the Earth Star, a genius was born in the refugee camp of the Earth Star. That genius always had a wish, that is, to escape from the vast interstellar world. It is lucky but also very sad. He
He caught up with that era, the explosive era of interstellar colonization. Sadly, his life span had already entered his old age at that time, and he could only watch the era he most expected to go away from him." Chromie described with a heavy voice.
.
"It's true that I was born at the wrong time." Chitaki nodded.
"But he did not give up. That day he came to the door of the federal parliament hall and stood there for three days and three nights, lobbying all kinds of people to come out of the parliament hall. In the end, he succeeded. He persuaded one person, and that person gave
With his strong support, he used lobbying resources to convene a group of ambitious but frustrated young people to carry out an experiment. In fact, you should be very aware of the results of this experiment, the Life Gene Optimization Reagent (
(First Edition), it was this reagent that completely destroyed the last barrier for mankind to reach the vast interstellar world." Chromie said.
"Well, why did you suddenly remember this story?" Chitaki asked curiously.
"Listen to me, the important thing is that after this person succeeded, he received countless honors and wealth, but he was not satisfied, so he had a conflict with his team, and finally the team split, and after the split, that person also
Then he disappeared. There is a legend that that man opened Pandora's Box hidden in the human body, and he predicted the way for humans to become gods. The deeds recorded on the stone tablet you mentioned are very similar to his thinking.
"Chromie said deeply.
Chitaki's whole body seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and his expression kept changing as he said, "You mean this inheritance was passed down from him?"
"It's possible, but I have a more terrifying idea." Chromie said.
"What idea?" Qianlong didn't dare to think about it.
"We currently know that the base laboratory can be traced back to Dark Age 5423. What if that person did not die? Instead, he became what we call a god?" Chromie said.
"Impossible, how could someone live so long?" Chitaki almost exploded. If he lived for hundreds to a thousand years, he would be called a monster. If he lived to a ridiculous number, he would not be called a monster. That would be called a disaster.
Already.
Chromie poured himself a glass of wine, sighed and said, "I just hope that we are just telling ghost stories to scare ourselves."
Chitaki hesitated and said, "What if it really exists?"
"Then don't let me touch him, otherwise I will definitely kill him." Chromie said solemnly, without any hesitation.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Chromie and Chitaki were also surprised. Who could it be at this time? Chromie walked over and opened the door, only to see Milo standing at the door.
"Why are you here?" Chromie asked in confusion.
"I'm here to join in the fun, why aren't you welcome?" Milo replied with a smile.
"You didn't come in." Chitaki stood up and prepared a new set of dishes and chopsticks.
Milo also sat down. She looked at the empty wine bottle on the table and said with a smile, "I drank a lot."
"Ahem, okay, okay." Chromie smiled awkwardly.
"I have some bad news for you." Milo said while cooking the dishes.
"Cary and Farley Jones will go to trial the day after tomorrow." Milo replied.
"Why?" Chitaki asked in confusion.
"Manslaughter of companions, poor command, and a series of other charges." Milo said.
"They can completely plead not guilty, so how can they go to trial?" Chromie frowned and said.
"I don't know who is responsible for the deaths of the exploration team. It is also rumored that they killed some people personally. On the surface, this is indeed the case. The other biggest reason is that Cary and Falejun
Si has always felt very painful and guilty about the death of her companion, and the two of them intend to bear the punishment." Milo said.
"This is going to be even more troublesome." Chromie rubbed his head.
Chitaki frowned and said, "Isn't this chaos?"
"There is another question. Tomorrow's chief judge is not at odds with Cary." Milo picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"Who is the presiding judge?" Chromie couldn't help but ask.
"Remus," Milo replied.
"That's really a misfortune that never comes singly." Chromie was helpless.
"Who is Remus? There is a grudge between him and Cary?" Chitaki asked in confusion.
"Remus and Cary were classmates in the same class, and they were also bitter enemies. It is said that Remus was once the suitor of Cary's wife, and was later intercepted by Cary." Chromie shook his head and said.
