Rules for raising elves [Interstellar Apocalypse]

Today is an important day.

The atmosphere in the team has been tense since the beginning.

Unable to help but adjust the elf's clothes again, the gray-haired boy touched Xia's head and whispered: "Miss Xia, don't be afraid later, we will always be by your side, and we will be there soon." it's over."

Shia nodded obediently and looked curiously at the tall, overly conspicuous "hourglass-shaped" building outside the car window.

The scientific research center of the empire, the Gene Tower.

The Gene Tower has always been a very sacred place in the hearts of the orcs of the Galactic Empire, not only because it represents the "origin", but also partly because it is related to the origin of Caesar Star.

Caesar's Planet is a restored planet, and what is restored is the "Blue Star", the home planet of ancient humans.

According to known records, Blue Star, the origin planet of ancient humans, was destroyed in a disaster, which also became an opportunity for the great migration of ancient humans into the universe.

But even though they later had several habitable galaxies, Blue Star still had an irreplaceable place in their hearts, so ancient humans found a planet with a similar size and environment to Blue Star, and tried to restore it to Blue Star and regard this planet as their technological center.

This is now "Caesar Star".

After occupying this somewhat special planet, the orcs named their country "Galaxy Empire" and called ancient humans "great explorers". They have been obsessed with discovering ancient human civilization and exploring the extremes of their technology.

The Gene Tower is one of the "relics" left by ancient humans. It looks like an hourglass with graceful arcs on both sides. The lower level is the scientific research center, and the top area is where the genetic database and testers are. .

After the speed car stopped, Leo put the cloak back on the elf.

Several hundred meters away from the gene tower, all the soldiers had surrounded them, and all residents were prohibited from watching. Under Christian's guidance, they entered the gene tower through a small door.

After entering the elevator without saying a word and pressing the button on the top floor, Caleb held the elf's hand tightly.

He had obviously been preparing for this day for so long, but when the day actually came, there was something else in his heart that he couldn't describe.

He knew that once the genetic race was identified, Xia would leave them one day and return to the embrace of her real family.

He should have been happy for her, but he couldn't be happy at this moment.

He even thought about taking her away and letting her true identity remain a secret forever.

But every time this time, his rationality would always remind him of what Mo Xili said that day: "Caleb, are you really okay if you let her follow you to live such a hiding life? Miss Xia should behave openly and openly. Live in the sunshine and grow up happily."

Yes, Caleb Guderian, what is the difference between your selfish behavior and a deserter who runs away from battle?

Looking at the man's particularly silent face, Sia gently shook the hand holding her, and she patted him comfortingly: "Caleb, don't worry."

"We all need to be brave, okay?"

The girl's soft words were like the spring breeze, and the hard ice began to loosen because of the warmth.

Yes, they are far less brave than a child.

Caleb lowered his head, as if the stone weighing on his heart had finally been lifted, and gently touched the cub's face: "Okay. We all need to be brave."

In the testing room on the top floor, everything is ready.

They controlled a researcher to operate the instrument. The researcher originally had his head lowered, but after they took off Shia's cloak, he never took his eyes away from the elf.

To be precise, he was staring at Shia's ears.

Shia was a little resigned to the situation and shrank behind Caleb in discomfort.

The detectors in the gene tower are larger than those in other places. People must lie in an instrument like a culture chamber, and then be connected to various pipelines and sent into the core by the machine for analysis and scanning.

"You must untie all your clothes and attach data cables to various parts of the body..." The researcher in a white coat was about to take action when he was slapped away by Duck.

"Who allowed you to touch the little one with your hands?" The black-haired boy had an evil look in his eyes.

Caleb looked at the other person's hand that he retracted in embarrassment, and said coldly: "You tell me, we can do it."

Those silver eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts. The researcher avoided Caleb's gaze unnaturally and cleared his throat: "First put the red patch under the collarbone..."

Caleb connected the pipeline to the elf's body accurately according to the other party's description. Those cold things made Shia shiver.

But Caleb didn't listen to the other party's request to take off the elf's clothes. Some private places were left to the elf's own hands.

"You will affect the accuracy of the test data... Aren't all the female ladies who do the test..." the other party muttered unwillingly.

"Then you have no value in existence." Larry smiled, his tone a little more dangerous.

The researcher finally shut up.

Soon, the transparent cover above slowly closed.

Sia obeyed and remained motionless, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart.

The entire biological cabin was raised and contracted under the power of the robotic arm, and then received into the detector.

The researcher entered the permissions on the console nearby. After some operations, a golden light began to light up in a circle from the bottom of the detector, and the entire machine began to operate.

"Operation permission: c."

"Biological sample detected."

Sia felt something sharp poke her, causing a small pain, but it left quickly.

"Blood samples have been collected."

"Start full body scan."

A warm blue light began to sweep down from her head.

"After data collection is completed, analysis begins."

"Progress, 5"

A progress bar began to appear on the electronic screen in the middle of the instrument. Along with the rhythmic announcement of the electronic sound, Leo felt that he was so nervous that he could hardly breathe.

"Progress 45, biological samples require higher database permissions."

The researcher was stunned, as if he had never thought that the database with C-level permissions was not enough?

The entire gene tower database is divided into four levels. Level c corresponds to common gene species in the current interstellar world, level b corresponds to rare species in the interstellar, level a extends to known gene species in the ancient human period, and level s permissions——

Those are the legendary species inferred by ancient humans.

He quickly entered the b-level permission.

But the electronic voice still repeats "Biological samples require higher database permissions."

Is it...

He felt his heartbeat begin to speed up, and he suppressed his excitement before slowly typing "a".

"..."

"Biological samples require elevated database permissions."

Looking at the red prompt box that popped up, the researcher seemed unable to believe his eyes.

That can only be... After jumping out of a series of complicated interfaces with trembling hands, he finally pressed "s".

"S area database search has been opened."

"Progress 80"

"Progress 100, analysis completed, start broadcasting test results."

In the entire testing hall, everyone's eyes were instantly focused on the screen.

Leo felt that his palms were all sweaty.

Gene Tower's electronic voice began to broadcast in a gentle tone:

"Gender: female, race: elf, biological age: one thousand six hundred and thirty-one years old, form: growing cub."

"..."

"?"

Why do I know these words individually but cannot understand them together?

"Thirteen hundred and ten years old? Are you sure this thing isn't bad?" Dak raised his eyebrows in disbelief. He really couldn't connect this string of numbers with the little guy who was only as high as his waist.

If this is true... When Dak thought about his rogue behavior of forcing the other party to call him "brother", he suddenly understood why Sia always looked complicated.

Leo and Caleb's attention was on the race column.

"Spirit...spirit?"

what is that? The gray-haired boy's eyes were full of confusion. For the first time, he felt that he had not read enough books. He turned to Caleb next to him for help.

"...I'm not very sure either." Caleb replied helplessly.

Only researcher Pamir, who was standing aside, began to look at him with passion.

"It's actually... an elf? That's a legendary species that predates the ancient human era! I've only heard of it in ancient human fairy tales!"

He looked up at the biological cabin obsessively, his eyes full of longing and enthusiasm.

He has been interested in interstellar history since he was a child. After joining the institute, his main research direction was ancient human literature.

This is a very unpopular major. Others are more interested in exploring the science and technology of ancient humans, because these are the most important things in the interstellar age.

science.

His usual job was to parse some experimental reports, until he opened a book in his spare time.

"The Age of the Gods".

Most of them are various versions of legends and stories about the creation of the universe before humans, but what attracts the most attention is a incomplete paper.

"On the possibility that elves are real."

"According to legend, before ancient humans ruled the universe, it was the age of the gods."

"Creation God created humans, and also created various other races, and elves are one of them. They are also the existence closest to God——"

It is also the most fascinating race.

They are famous for their beauty, intelligence and elegance. They are pure light creatures protected by the Lord God of Light. Although their fertility rate is low, their life span is as long as eternal life.

Pointed ears are almost a symbol of their clan. In addition, many books often describe them as "blond and blue-eyed", "extraordinary beauty", and "light and agile".

Also good at magic.

"Magic?" After hearing the familiar word, Caleb looked at the researcher more seriously.

"It's a special ability. Some of them can summon fire and thunder out of thin air, and some can heal people's wounds without using any tools..."

Leo touched his arm. It was once covered with bruises, but now there was no scar.

What an unusual cub they picked up!

"In various versions of the creation story, other races have disappeared in the long river of time, and only humans who are loved by the Creator and elves who are protected by the God of Light remain."

"Is there any trace of this race now?" Caleb immediately asked the key to the question.

"It's said to be a legendary creature..." Pamir replied awkwardly.

"The Gene Tower can only make reasonable inferences based on her biological information. The S area is all data left by ancient humans. As for whether these species actually exist, there is no way to verify it."

Caleb recalled everything they encountered on the strange garbage star where they picked up Shia. All these signs proved that Shia was most likely to be this mysterious race.

In other words, there is a high probability that they have picked up the only remaining elf in this universe.

The only creature with "magic".

Not only did he react to this problem, but all the insiders present were obviously aware of it.

Sia's identity must not be exposed.

As if realizing what they were thinking, and feeling the complicated eyes on him, Pamir's Adam's apple rolled and he slowly backed away.

Then he suddenly took a photo of a hidden button on the metal wall of the machine.

Karl, who had been staring at the biological cabin, was the first to realize that something was wrong. The metal cabin containing Shia was locked!

"Let go of Miss Shia!"

The golden-haired boy pounced on the opponent desperately, Pamir dodged awkwardly, and a high-voltage electric grid suddenly rose from the ground!

He was bounced away so hard that his entire arm was instantly paralyzed.

He reluctantly stood up holding on to the wall, while Pamir was trembling and mumbling.

"Don't blame me...I was also...forced! That was Master Farina..."

Before he finished speaking, Mussel walked in quickly while shouting, with panic on his face: "Quickly! The McCarthy family's private soldiers have surrounded the gene tower! Mr. Mo Xili has been detained..."
