I walk in the past, continue the future

Chapter 156 Parasite

The next morning came as promised.

Xia Lian's biological clock controlled him to slowly open his eyes, he looked to one side, and Mercury was standing in front of the huge French window looking at the sky.

Looking up from the bottom, she is wearing a pair of skin-colored pantyhose that fits well, outlining her well-proportioned and slender legs. The thighs follow a graceful arc, followed by a sharply tightened waistline, and then it disappears. .

"What are you looking at?" Xia Lian asked.

"You asked the members of the Kuixing ship to investigate the star, and they seem to be in trouble." Mercury said.

Xia Lian frowned, "What?"

"They used a geological survey ship assembled in Yorktown to explore the Extinct Planet to see if it was a naturally formed planet.

They explored [-] meters underground, but were attacked by a group of unknown creatures. "

Xia Lian was silent for a moment, "Are there any casualties?"

"With Helios present, it's not a big problem. Those creatures have been captured and contained by us. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Xia Lian nodded lightly, then, he looked up and down at Quicksilver, "You change your clothes."

Mercury stared at Xia Lian quietly without saying a word.

"What's wrong?" Xia Lian asked with some doubts.

"Your Highness." Mercury couldn't help but say, "I'm a cyborg for combat, not a puppet for entertainment. You have to use me reasonably."

"I just asked you to change clothes, where do you want to go?" Xia Lian said a little funny, "Or do you want to go out with me dressed like this?"

Quicksilver fell silent again, even though her feelings were blunted, she felt an awkward atmosphere at this moment.

After a while, she lowered her head and said in a low voice.

"You kept making me change my clothes last night"

"I did it for the principality." Xia Lian said solemnly.

Quicksilver raised his head in confusion, "For the Principality?"

"Didn't you say that the material is not enough?"

Xia Lian said, "Think about it, if the emperor finds out that I can freely enter and leave the palace, then I can only take back the principality from the reformer in advance.

The emperor would certainly not allow things beyond his control to exist, so the principality would almost certainly become the target of public criticism.

Think about it, can the principality withstand the attack of the entire empire? "

Quicksilver thought for a while, then nodded.

"So, you had so many strange ideas last night just to provide as much material as possible?"

"That's right." Xia Lian nodded solemnly.

"In order to have different tricks, I racked my brains for a long time, but I didn't expect you to think I was that kind of person." He said heartbroken.

Mercury lowered his head, "I'm sorry."

For a moment, Xia Lian looked at Quicksilver who really believed his nonsense.

Mercury is good at everything, but sometimes it is too obedient.

People's desires are endless. After earning one hundred million, they will think about earning the next one. Xia Lian can't stop because of her attitude of getting whatever she wants.

In particular, she always looks at you with innocent and calm eyes every day, which makes Xia Lian even more impulsive, always wanting to see her expression other than this one.

In fact, he saw quite a few last night.

"Are you really a combat cyborg?" Xia Lian said with deep eyes.

Mercury tilted his head in some doubts, but still said: "I'm sure of this, what do you want to express?"

"No."

Xia Lian held back what he wanted to say, and continued to ask.

"However, the pictures you made for them before should not have revealed important parts?"

"You reminded me before, I pay attention to the angle, and many scenes are blocked by quilts." Mercury said.

Xia Lian nodded.

Then, the mercury began to manipulate the changes of micro-nano particles, covering its own body again.

Xia Lian also manipulated micro-nano particles to cover his body, and then he continued.

"Come with me."

Together with Quicksilver, he walked towards the elevator leading directly to the presidential suite, and walked to the restaurant of the hotel.

He has sent a reformer to disguise himself in the palace, and many people may have forgotten it.

There were actually three reformers who followed Xia Lian to Mie Xing, one was Mercury, the other was Mithril, and there was a male reformer named Orichalcum.

It has been protecting Einstein and others in the past, and now the situation in the permafrost is basically stable, and the quantum teleportation device can basically teleport Einstein and others back at any time.

So he was arranged by Xia Lian to act in the palace, and he also tested whether his plan was feasible, and whether the rest of the reformers would find his abnormality.

All members who are active in this galaxy basically live in this hotel, which is convenient for unified arrangements.

So there are still many people in the restaurant having breakfast at the moment.

Xia Lian saw Tianhai almost at first glance, he was immersed in enjoying the breakfast prepared in the dining room.

The food in York City is still very sufficient. As a city with millions of people, all resources are also allocated at this level.

Moreover, the background of the world in York City has not experienced a chronology. Many foods are very orthodox foods on the earth. Xia Lian even saw soy milk fritters.

Xia Lian has never been to Paradise, but judging from the productivity and climate conditions there, it is estimated that it is the kind that is full for three days and hungry for three days.

Therefore, in the face of such a rich food, even though Tianhai was already in his seventies and eighties, the action of eating could still be described as devouring.

"How does it feel?"

The voice from one side startled Tianhai, he turned his head to look at the person, swallowed the crumbled fritters in his mouth, nodded to him and performed a basic etiquette.

"God Envoy Xia."

Then, he came back to his senses and looked at the food in his hand.

"Are these the food of the gods?"

"Almost." Xia Lian said.

"It's so delicious." Tianhai smiled awkwardly but politely.

He wiped his shiny mouth with his hands, and then he wanted to wipe his hands with his clothes.

"There are tissues next to you." Xia Lian said.

"tissue?"

Tianhai looked at the drawing paper on one side, and took out a piece of paper. Paradise also had something like this, but it was much rougher. The whiteness and softness of this paper was beyond his imagination.

But after the initial shock, his ability to accept is already very strong at this moment, and he calmly wiped his mouth and hands with a piece of paper.

"If Sparrowhawk came here, he would probably worship everything he saw." Tianhai said with emotion.

"You seemed to be cursing your friend just now." Xia Lian teased.

"If I had known that the afterlife would be like this, I would have died earlier. Why would I still be suffering in such a place?" Tianhai said.

"But in fact, it is precisely because of the suffering you have suffered that you have the opportunity to enter the afterlife." Xia Lian said.

Tianhai nodded, "There is also a proverb in Paradise that tells you that as much as you lose, you will always gain."

"A group of heroic spirits are going to the permafrost today. Do you want to go with them? Of course, you can come back anytime." Xia Lian said.

"Of course." Tianhai said.

"I thought you would spend a little more time here." Xia Lian said, "This hotel is just an insignificant corner of the whole afterlife."

"I think so too, but my friends need me, don't they?" Tianhai smiled, "And, I think, when it's all over, I'll have a lot of time."

Xia Lian raised his eyebrows and nodded, "Then I wish you a good time and prepare well. The next battle may be fierce."

Tianhai nodded.

Then, Xia Lian followed Mercury and left the hotel, using the portal to the biology laboratory.

He came to the basement floor of the biological laboratory, where Wang Zhen and others including Xia Sha were waiting.

Once inside, Xia Lian's realization was attracted by what was locked in the glass observation cabin in front of him.

It was a sloth-like thing, at least three meters tall, especially its pair of sharp claws, which seemed to be able to tear apart many things.

At this moment it is bound by the chain formed by photons, but its eyes are still fierce.

"Is this a modified creature of the rebel army?" Xia Lian asked Xia Sha.

Xia Sha shook her head, "I checked the data of the base, there is no such thing, and there is no trace of transformation on the body.

It was discovered [-] meters below Miexing. It is a huge underground cave. According to our scans, there are many such things in it. "

Xia Lian frowned, "But Miexing doesn't have the resources to provide life at all. Could it be that this kind of creature grew up eating rocks?"

"I tested the genes of this creature, and these creatures are more like some kind."

Xia Sha's words paused, "Parasite."

"Parasite?" Xia Lian frowned, "Is it something that relies on another living creature to survive?"

Xia Sha nodded, "That's right, genetic testing can't make mistakes."

Xia Lian stared at the monster, countless thoughts swirled in his heart.

"Notify all the exploration teams to return to York City immediately. Also, notify all those who stay at the rebel base to dismantle all useful things in the base and bring them all to York City."

He looked at Zhong Ling.

"Is the warp thruster installed in Yorktown?"

Zhong Ling nodded, "It is being debugged. Although there is no micro black hole, we are trying to use the sail of Alvak to collect star energy to produce antimatter. It should be able to provide York City with a few jumps."

"That's good." Xia Lian murmured softly, "Next, we should think about how to take people away."
