Chapter 275: Burning a candle to the fathers wish, destroying the monsters in the cave
Inside the exclusive cabin.
After the storage body explained to Sui Bian and the two artificial intelligences the past of the Milky Way system tens of millions of years ago, his face and expression were still cold, but his voice was lonely and sad, and he said:
"Recyclers... no, humans, when you hear these words from me, it means that we managers, our Qiu Min clan, have long become a thing of the past.
Although I cannot lead you personally, my memory will tell you about the past of the galaxy and at the same time, it will also judge whether you are qualified to accept my teachings based on your current civilization level, social system, etc...
Finally, please don’t make the same mistakes we made.”
Immediately afterwards, the storage body seemed to finish playing the words that Aaliya Hongtu had recorded in advance, and then continued to maintain an emotionless look, waiting to answer the next question.
“…”
At this moment, Sui Bian was in a state of shock after hearing everything.
He had thought about the past of this universe, but he never imagined that it would be as ups and downs as described in the storage body. He also experienced the kind of manager who faced the storm in another space and the demons raging in the real universe...
Endless despair and exhaustion.
Compared with the Forerunners in "Halo", the Qiu Min clan in this universe are definitely worthy of their self-proclaimed "managers".
Although both have become overlords of the galaxy, their attitudes towards other races are completely different.
One is to consolidate its dominance.
One is willing to help secretly.
Sui Bian couldn't help but admire him. If there were no existence of different dimensions, and under the control of managers following the "natural rules", the prosperity of various races and civilizations might have already left the Milky Way.
It's a pity that there is no "if" in this universe.
Judging from the time points described in the storage body, the mass extinction of organisms during the Cretaceous period of the earth 66 to 65 million years ago was most likely caused by the halo pulse wave.
Relaxed my mind.
Sui Bian changed his standing posture from leaning on the fixed table, put down his crossed hands and walked forward.
When he came to the storage body, he said to him with enough respect in his tone: "Thank you for your efforts. I, my descendants, and even all mankind will take over the great work that you have failed to complete."
However, without any storage body of wisdom, he could not understand Sui Bian's respect for the managers and responded mechanically:
"Please give clear instructions."
See this.
Sui Bian didn't pay attention. He was silent for a moment and asked: "I want to know the specific locations of the Ark, Halo and the remaining shield worlds."
"In order to avoid being occupied and exploited by creatures from other dimensions, the administrator set up the self-destruction program of the Halo and Ark before activating the cross-phase pulse matrix.
In my information, there are only the specific coordinates of Shield World 0314, and the current status of Shield World 0314 is offline." The storage body replied.
"Self-destructed? That's fine..." Sui Bian nodded lightly and added: "I also want to know whether only we humans can access the memories and technology stored in your storage body."
"Yes." The storage body responded affirmatively.
"Okay, I understand, then..." Sui Bian said, putting his hands behind his back, and continued to ask him:
"I would like to ask if humans at this stage are qualified to accept teachings from managers."
The voice fell.
The storage body, which always answers questions, did not respond immediately this time.
"Chairman." The Red Queen, who was standing not far behind Sui Bian, reported to him:
"It has been detected that civilian networks and corporate, UEG, and UNSC internal networks are suffering from forced access by some kind of program. When Queen Bai and I tried to intercept and expel it, we were unable to lock the program."
Empress Bai also stared at the storage body and suggested to him: "The source of the intrusion program should be the memory storage body in front of us. Physically destroying it should prevent intrusion access, Chairman."
“…”
Upon hearing this suggestion, Sui Bian turned sideways and glanced at Queen Bai beside him, then turned back, shook his head lightly and said, "Ignore it for now."
"Yes (ok)." The two artificial intelligences agreed.
soon.
The sluggish storage body looked down at Sui Bian again and said: "The scan has been completed.
The scanning results show that the recycler civilization has successfully passed the internal friction stage, the existing social form is consensus integration, and has entered the era of interstellar civilization at an extremely fast speed, which has far exceeded the expectations of the administrators of Shield World 0314.
The search for Blood Demon Griffin, fallen goddess Aphrodite, and Arcadia archival records indicate that the actual rulers of mankind have a hostile attitude toward other dimensions."
Having said this, the storage body glanced at the red and white queens, then returned to Sui Bian, and continued:
"Rebels have played a major role in the progress of mankind and currently do not have any tendency to rebel. The implementation of the 145th Amendment to the Code can be suspended.
The final conclusion is that human beings are qualified to receive knowledge in fields such as artificial stars and celestial-level building tectonics. I will teach you on behalf of the Shield World 0314 manager."
"Artificial stars and celestial structures are very good..." Sui Bian pondered and asked the last question: "Do you have any information about vaccines or Flood demons?"
"Incomplete information exists."
"Well..." After receiving this reply, Sui Bian couldn't help but sigh: "The inheritance given by the administrator is really rich."
“…”
The two artificial intelligences behind them nodded slightly to show that they had the same view.
Immediately afterwards, they heard the instructions from Sui Bian:
"Notify Director Wang Zhaofeng and the entire scientific research team of the company to prepare for an academic exchange spanning tens of millions of years in ten Earth Days.
At that time, notify Director Krauser of Rockford Island and arrange for a security team to escort the doctor (Plague Doctor) to Raccoon City. By the way, don’t forget to tell the doctor that the company has obtained new vaccine information."
"Understood." They both responded in unison.
After saying the instructions.
Sui Bian slowly turned around, facing the peaceful manor scene presented by the virtual window, and sighed in his heart:
'The Qiumin Empire has indeed learned a painful historical lesson. Now it seems...it is necessary to dispatch agents from the Supervision Department to actively search for demons to hunt them down.'
He raised his right hand and spread his palm flat.
"Hoo~!"
Sui Bian placed it on his palm, creating a ball of spiritual flame that burst out with dazzling light, like a very small star.
But he could look directly at this group of "stars", letting his eyes reflect the flames, and said to himself in a deep voice:
"Since you are unwilling to let the sea of souls return to peace, and you like to cause destruction and torture people's hearts, then... I will plunder you all. It just so happens that I am not satisfied with your current strength."

…
"Beep~! Beep~!"
Brainwashing, harsh, and the alarm sound that can break the beauty of the morning the most, it echoes in a spacious bedroom.
The indoor lighting is dim.
But the old-fashioned heavy curtains began to automatically retract to both sides as the alarm stopped, and they no longer blocked the seemingly sleeping owner from the outside light, and the room gradually became brighter.
In this way, you can smoothly observe this bedroom with a very classical decoration style.
The large-sized bed is located in the center, with the headboard close to the north wall. The floor is covered with flawless white marble tiles, and comfortable and soft light gray carpets are laid on both sides of the bed.
Not far to the left of the bed is the dressing room with the sliding door open.
Directly opposite the end of the bed is a dressing table piled with female cosmetics, also made of marble and covered with gray veins.
To the right of the bed is a floor-to-ceiling window with a sliding door.
Outside the window, there is a beautiful backyard of a house in the forest. It is misty. Look closely at the leaves and green grass, and there is also crystal-like morning dew hanging on it.
Birds of different colors and sizes landed on the branches and chirped, seeming to replace the alarm clock.
There are also raccoons, rabbits, deer, and even ferocious animals such as snakes and wolves, gathering on the lawn in the backyard.
but…
They get along quite harmoniously. The rules of survival of the fittest and the law of the jungle do not apply here.
The Kerunni deer, with its horn crown emitting golden light, taking a leisurely stroll, and the fairies dressed in modern looks, wearing doll-sized costumes, are particularly obvious among this group of animals living in harmony.
"Forehead…"
At this time, the owner of the bedroom and the entire house also opened the thin, cool silk quilt, stretched out and sat on the bed.
Then he looked ahead with a blank expression.
In the dressing mirror, she is wearing a black suspender-style pajamas. Her long white blonde hair is fluffy and messy. With her looming perfect figure and delicate facial features, she has a lazy beauty.
Only Artemis, the former goddess of hunting who is now a senior employee of Umbrella, can allow animals to gather in her own backyard.
She stared at herself in the mirror for a moment, then rolled out of bed, stepped on the carpet first, then put on her slippers and walked towards the dressing table.
Come and sit down in front of the mirror.
Pulling out a cleaning wipe to wipe her face, and throwing the used wipe into the trash can, Artemis scanned the cosmetics on the table that had no skin care effect for her at all, and selected one of them marked "
A moisturizing facial cream, ready to be used on cheeks.
Although she is a god, as a god with a clear gender, temperament and way of thinking similar to human women, Artemis finally believed the words of the advertisement...
And it’s also an advertisement for my company.
For decades, cosmetics accounted for one-fifth of her salary expenses, making a significant contribution to the company's performance.
"Evenly matched" with cosmetics are various types of clothing, the latest electronic entertainment products, or the artworks she is interested in, and other consumer goods also occupy the bulk.
After all, she has no habit of saving money.
Of course, this also proves that she has already integrated into human society at this moment.
During the only few days of vacation every year, Artemis would also leave Titan, where she usually lives and work, to travel to Earth or a colonial planet with a beautiful environment.
Aside from her overly conspicuous hair color, she is almost the same as a human woman.
On the dressing table, there are not only a dazzling array of cosmetics, but also a photo in an exquisite photo frame. There are also photos and photo frames of different contents and sizes hanging on this wall.
She likes this kind of technological means that can preserve beautiful moments or make them memorable.
The photos hanging on the walls are mostly landscapes of the earth and various colonies, as well as the streets, alleys and night markets of local cities, etc.
As for the picture on the dressing table, the content is not about any scenery or location, but the grand occasion of the company's annual meeting by the beach. In the center of the picture is Sui Bian, wearing a customized military uniform, delivering a concluding speech.
Comb your hair.
Artemis got up and walked into the cloakroom, took off her pajamas, put on her underwear, then chose a white outfit in the ancient Greek style, tied a black belt, and left the cloakroom and bedroom.
After nearly thirty minutes, Artemis, who had completely tidied up, walked out of the house and came to the main entrance courtyard, which was also surrounded by dense forests on both sides.
I was just about to walk to the sidewalk outside the courtyard...
She was "surrounded" by animals and fairies who had been waiting outside for a long time.
"Eh~!"
The largest one, the Cerunne deer, bowed its head obediently, seemingly hoping to gain intimacy from its master.
"My lord! Can you take us to the base again today?"
"Yes, yes~!"
The fairies with expectant expressions flapped their translucent colorful wings and circled around Artemis.
"Haha~." Artemis smiled, half-crouched on the lawn, stretched out her left hand to caress the Cerunne deer, but her tone suddenly changed to the fairies, and she said:
"Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. It's impossible. There will be no next time. You can just look after the house with peace of mind."
"Ah...okay."
"Oh...what a pity..."
The rejected fairies were particularly disappointed. They even lost the motivation to flap their wings. They fell on the backs of the Kerunni deer and fell into a period of loneliness.
Artemis stood up again and smiled helplessly. She ignored the fairy who looked very lonely but was actually playing with her treasures. She left the courtyard and walked towards the sky rail station not far away.
Arriving at the platform thirty meters above the ground, she could overlook the entire forest and the crystal-clear, endless Yuanyue Lake.
The planet where Artemis is located is Titan, which is specially used to train Gray Knights and ghost agents.
In the clear and cloudless sky, Saturn, the ringed planet that is always blowing storms, occupies most of the field of view, while the sun is somewhat insignificant.
If you have a phobia of giant objects, you may not be able to stand this kind of alien scenery.
soon.
A maglev train entered the platform, carrying Artemis and several senior Umbrella employees across the forest on the shore, and quickly headed towards the base being built in the north.

…
Shortly after.
In the dense forest, there is a large military base.
But there are some differences from the very modern base, especially the style of the one in the center of the base is more like ancient Greece, a large "temple" that can accommodate a thousand people.
And in the hall of the "temple".
Standing on the stage at the front of the hall, Artemis, with a serious face and pacing left and right, raised her voice and asked the newly adult Astartes in the audience:
"Tell me what your responsibilities are."
Hear the words.
Twenty people were seen wearing dark gray attire, wearing crowns made of olive branches, holding the Nemesis Power Halberd in their right hand, kneeling on one knee, and responded to Artemis's inquiry in unison:
