When Sui Bian said this, many children looked at each other in shock.
To be honest, the children don't feel that they are any different. If they are, their experiences are quite miserable.
Thinking of this, some people can't help but look sad.
Seeing this, Sui Bian did not explain anything. After all, it was unrealistic for these children to accept everything in a short time.
Then he looked behind him with his peripheral vision and said to the two artificial intelligences: "Red Queen, White Queen, you take these children to get familiar with Minos Island, arrange their accommodation first, and I will tell them this in person in the afternoon.
What the world really looks like."
"Yes (ok)." The two artificial intelligences replied in unison.
Then they stepped forward and led the group of children back to the car, and the security guards continued to drive the Warthog out of the parking lot and toward the base's buildings.
"Let's go too, Leon." Watching the convoy gradually move away, Sui Bian also walked towards the base buildings and said to Leon who was following him:
"Seeing the confused look of those children today reminds me that you and your brothers behaved similarly to those children back then. Now..."
As he said that, Sui Bian raised his head and glanced at Leon, then returned his gaze to the front again, and joked in a rare way:
"Everyone is like a giant now. It's inconvenient to go anywhere. We have to design exclusive seats for you, haha."
"Yeah." Leon nodded slightly melancholy.
The personal teachings he received from Sui Bian, as well as the teachings from researchers such as Alexia and Rebecca, as well as every detail of living with his brothers, are all vivid in Leon's mind.
In a blink of an eye, time flies by, and their group of originals has grown up.
They can no longer live together like before, joking before going to bed and throwing cold water on each other after getting up. Instead, they lead their own Astartes and stationed them on three heavy frigates.
Fortunately, the current range of human activities is only concentrated between the earth and the moon. During holidays, the brothers can still get together.
But Leon knows that since his father "assisted" the company to develop the jump engine, humans will surely travel throughout the solar system, and will certainly go outside the solar system in the near future.
By then, the brothers will be scattered everywhere, and the distance from each other may be measured in light years.
As for life, old age, illness and death, it is no longer within the scope of Leon's consideration.
Alexia once told their original body that the G glands implanted in their bodies contained ingredients of Blood Manhua.
Mentioning Xuemanhua can be traced back to 1998.
Umbrella discovered the ruins of an Inca city in the Amazon rainforest in Peru, as well as giant centipedes mutated by the bloodflower.
After Tracker T-02 eliminated the giant centipede, the ruins became Umbrella's research center for cultivating the Blood Manhua.
The serum secreted by the Blood Manhua has the effect of extending the lifespan of cells. In other words, no one knows the specific lifespan of Leon and other Primarchs, and the same is true for the Astartes.
It's just that the Bloodflower is extremely difficult to cultivate and cannot be separated from the growth environment. Its quantity is rare and cannot be mass-produced, but it is enough for Umbrella's high-level research and use.
So Leon won't worry about Sui Bian "die of old age", and Leon feels that Sui Bian doesn't seem to need Xue Manhua at all, after all, their father has too many secrets.
Sui Bian noticed Leon's mood swings, but did not point it out. Instead, he said after a moment of silence:
"Although these children with psychic potential are not qualified for G-gland implantation and have no blood connection with me and you, they are also orphans adopted by me. Think about it... they can also be regarded as your younger brothers and sisters.<
/p>
It just so happens that Rogge hasn't left Rockford Island yet. Let Rogge come over later and tell these children about his experience in fighting abnormal phenomena."
"Roger?" Hearing this, Leon thought of his outspoken brother and couldn't help but said: "I hope he can control his mouth."
"Haha, not only Roger, I will also ask Robert and John to come to Minos." Sui Bian said with a smile.
"Well, maybe I haven't seen other brothers for a long time." Leon responded.
Next, Sui Bian will return to his "old business", teaching Nova and other orphans the principles of life, and teaching them how to skillfully use psychic powers.
After all, "Reaper" Hank needs to serve as the principal of Minos, and the USS needs to teach new recruits. If they are to carry out the company's black operations, they will seem a little weak.
Moreover, the USS's deterrent power is not as good as before.
Therefore, Sui Bian needed to establish a force that completely replaced the USS to continue to carry out black operations, quietly deal with high-level hostile forces, and supervise and deter the company's internal affairs.
Then Ghost Agent is the best choice.
This is also the reason why Sui Bian attaches so much importance to Nova and the others.

…
Summer.
At noon when the sun is shining brightly, in a forest with lush trees...
"Know—! Know—!" A large number of green cicadas are lying on the trunks and branches of trees, and they are chirping crazily due to the high temperature.
"Cha~Cha~"
The cicadas chirped, mixed with a few birdsong, as if they were trying to prove their existence, while complaining about the high temperature and the green cicadas.
The soil is overgrown with weeds, and its humidity is not very high. Together with European spruce trees and large green leafhoppers, it means that this is a European-wide forest.
Groups of fallow deer gather in the forest, eating fresh weeds on the ground, all looking leisurely.
The fallow deer, who were eating leisurely, suddenly raised their heads and looked toward the southeast of the forest.
Several human figures flashed through the gaps between tree trunks.
"Tap! Tread!" Seeing humans approaching, the fallow deer quickly ran away without looking back. After all, Europeans like to go deep into the forest to hunt them.
Soon, three men and two women came to the area where the fallow deer had just eaten.
They all wore breathable and comfortable casual short-sleeves, trousers and hiking boots, but instead of carrying shotguns that frightened fallow deer, they carried hiking backpacks full of items.
And they are not very old, they look like they are studying in college, or they are college students who have just graduated from college.
Two of them had the emblem of Oxford University embroidered on the right chest of their short-sleeved shirts, which also confirmed that they were college students.
The male college student walking at the front was holding a thickened tablet computer in his hand. He was looking at the map displayed on the screen and observing the nearby environment, leading the students through the forest.
The information displayed on the screen showed that they were in the deep forest at the border of Bulgaria and Greece, and the time was 2007/07/21, 11:32.
The five college students continued to walk through the forest for more than 20 minutes. When the scorching sun was directly overhead, they finally came to a lake with a wide view.
Under the cliff on the other side of the lake, there are a large number of severely weathered, collapsed and tilted Doric (Greek) marble columns. It seems that an unknown temple once existed here.
