touch of empire

Salka's eyes drooped slightly, the dark eyes like deep swirls floated away from Shi Luo's body.

At this moment, the huge bone wings of the monster behind him vibrated slightly and slowly opened.On the bone wings, there are streaks of white light.

The three guides who fell on the ground hugged each other even tighter, they were almost connected as one body, and the sound of shouts echoed in this space, shaking Shi Luo slightly.

Suddenly, the long white hair of the beast lord floated up in the air, and the strands of hair drooped down, straight into the back of Zalka's head.

Streaks of white light flowed into the tip of the hair along the bone wings, and then injected into the back of Zalka's head.

I don't know how long it took until the screams from the guides stopped, the white light gradually disappeared, and the corpse of the strange beast behind it became a dead thing again.

The guide fainted on the ground, Zalka got up, put on the clothes scattered on the ground for the three guides one by one, then walked around Shiluo, found his own clothes on the escalator, and unbuttoned the shirt with a pair of slender hands. He buttoned them up and put on his windbreaker again. Finally, when he put on his hat, the three guides who had fainted on the ground finally opened their eyes.

Shi Luo trembled slightly, he could completely feel that the white net in his mental area was constantly closing, letting go, and closing again.

A killing intent permeated it.

"Shi Luo! Why are you here?" One of the guides first spotted Shi Luo. He didn't seem to know what happened just now, but looked at the sudden appearance of the sentry with a look of surprise.

The other guide was obviously not happy to see Shi Luo, he curled his lips and snorted displeasedly: "Our guide is here to study the beast lord, and you don't have enough mental power for a sentinel, so I don't know why you came here to join in the fun!"

Shi Luo pursed his lips tightly, he ignored those guides, and just stared straight at Salka.

What kept coming to mind was the photo album he saw in the study.

The thirteenth batch of graduates of the First Military Academy of the Empire, the bodyguard of the Galaxy Emperor, was ordered to hunt down the Lola beast, and only one came back alive...

Salka also looked at Shi Luo quietly, he didn't open his mouth, and didn't say a word.

It's just that the hands are hidden behind the back, tight and loose, loose and tight.

"You two idiots!" A female guide finally opened her eyes and said to her companion with a smile, "You probably forgot that the mentor was marked by this sentinel, right? Let's go, their lovers meet, let's not be light bulbs! "

The other two guides glared at Shi Luo fiercely, and walked away unwillingly.

One of them couldn't help turning his head when he was going downstairs, but the scene that caught his eyes made the guide feel chills.

In the empty and dark alien beast display area, the tall and gloomy Zalka stood in the shadow of the alien beast lord.

And wearing a light-colored uniform, a short-haired, vigorous and healthy young man clenched his fists and remained motionless.

They didn't look like lovers at all, but... like a confrontation between the hunter and the prey before death.

The museum became empty and silent, and both of them sank into darkness.

The air was silent and frozen, and the wind that occasionally penetrated through, cut through the air like a sharp knife.

"Why don't you make a move?" Shi Luo's chin was raised slightly, his mental area was tensing up, the white light net was getting closer and closer, and it had already been embedded in the mental barrier. Salka only needed to squint his eyes a little bit, You will immediately become a useless person.

Zalka's lips were slightly pursed, his eyebrows were tightly furrowed, his hands were slowly raised, and a white light appeared in his palm.I am very familiar with the mental area of ​​the sentinel in front of me. I only need to close my hand a little, and my secret will become a secret forever.

However, when he saw the stubborn and desperate look in those black and white eyes, he couldn't do anything.

"You are the first person to discover my secret, I can't let you get out of here alive..." Zalka finally spoke, her voice was low and hoarse.

Shi Luo sneered: "It's an honor! Those guides who are with you don't know anything, but I, an outsider... see everything."

"This will be your last night in this world. Do you have any last words?" Salika walked towards Shi Luo slowly, stood in front of him, and looked down at him.

Shi Luo raised his head slightly, and Salka's face was close at hand, still charming.

"How long has it been?" Shi Luo knew that he was no match for Salka, and he didn't have any thoughts of running away.

His feet were weak and his head was throbbing.And the place that hurts the most is the heart.

What kind of person, or what kind of monster, he fell in love with, he just wanted to die to understand.

Salka's hand stretched out slowly, rubbing Shi Luo's Adam's apple with his thumb, and then opened his hand suddenly, pinching Shi Luo's neck, under the palm he could feel the trembling of the trachea and the pulsation of blood flowing through the artery.The people under him don't have the slightest ability to resist, and he can kill him at any time, as long as he wants.

"One thousand... 320 five years, fifteen days and eight hours." Salka said, he had never told anyone about this matter, and he will never tell anyone about it in the future.

The secret of more than 1000 years is hidden in the deepest part of his heart, and he becomes the tarsus maggot to follow day and night.

Today, this little soldier who has lived with him for three full months and is about to die should be a very good person to confide in.

What's more... It was interrupted just now, and when the sun rises tomorrow morning, it is not certain who the dead person will be.

"I used to be a sentinel, a sentinel braver than you." Salka's eyes drooped slightly, and at this moment, the original deep eyes became empty.

"I was ordered to hunt down the Lola beast, which is the one in front of me. It was injured at the time, very seriously. We besieged it together, but no one was its opponent. It killed mine one by one in front of me. Comrades. Like, what you just saw, the long white hair piercing the back of the brain, sucking their energy, and then the spirit belongs to it, and the flesh turns to dust."

Shi Luo felt Salka's other hand slowly stroking his back, and then stayed at the back of his head.

There is the connection between the spine and the brain, which is the oldest part of the brain in biological evolution, controlling the lowest and most fundamental neural operations.

Zalka's fingertips lightly brushed over there, and then poked lightly on it.

"In the end, I was caught by it too, and his hair, right here on my side, was poked like this..."

Shi Luo felt cold all over, and his lips trembled slightly.

He couldn't help but go to see the beast lord. After being caught by such a monster, and then his brain stem was invaded, he would have no other thoughts except death.

"But I was lucky, my attack power was very strong, and it was injured and very weak. When it wanted to kill me, I attacked it. It died, I survived, but some Things will stay in my mental zone forever.”

The white tentacles, like a ray of light, originally Shi Luo always thought that they were the spiritual tentacles of Salka.

But now, he realized that it turned out to belong to the beast lord.

"Because of this thing, my Quantum Beast became a monster; I too... have become an undead monster since then. Emperor Lola promulgated the "Ten Characteristics of Infected Guides", that is all wrong! There is no The guide was infected, the one who was infected by the alien beast... I am the only one!"

Zalka was going to stab Shiluo's brainstem with his hands and kill him right away.But when he said "I am the only one infected by the alien beast", he accidentally met Shi Luo's eyes.

In those eyes, there was no panic that hung by a thread, not even the anger of being deceived.

Nor is there abominable pity and sympathy.

Yes, it's just an indescribably sad look, not feeling pitiful, not feeling like a monster, just... simply, at this moment, hurting the pain I have experienced before.

The one that was pressed on the back of Shi Luo's head trembled slightly, then gave up the brainstem, moved up along the back of the head, and pressed it to the top of Shi Luo's head, hesitated for a moment, and rubbed it.

Following the slight itchiness of the short hair piercing into the palm, Zalka sighed almost invisible.

Although it has been many years, but recalling the days of fleeing back then, people can't help but feel chills all over the body.

Every day, he becomes human.

And at night, the spiritual body belonging to the alien beast that remained in his body would appear, attack, and torture him.

For almost 200 years, he was a human being during the day, and an extremely weak beast at night.

The pain of body mutation almost made him lose hope. Only when the first ray of sunlight hits the earth every morning, after experiencing unbearable pain, can he control the infection in his body. fragments of genes to become a person again.

In this way, every day, every night alone torment.

He didn't appear again until all his friends and relatives were dead, and until that ridiculous "Ten Characteristics of an Infected Guide" was all invalidated.

In the beginning, he was not a guide.He went from one place to another, looking for every way to transform himself back into a human.

After searching for a full 100 years, he finally understood that the alien gene fragment that remained in his body had been completely integrated with himself.

He possesses great strength, and his mental tentacles can easily pry open the most fortified Sentinel, and whenever he heals a Sentinel, the method he uses is completely different from that of ordinary guides.

Ordinary guides use their own spiritual energy to sort out the chaotic spiritual core of the sentinel.

As for Zalka, he directly inserted into the other party's spiritual core, transferred the chaotic energy there directly to himself, and then used the alien animal gene in his body to transform and repair it.

His healing was quicker and more effective than any guide.

Every time he transforms, it is more painful than any guide has endured.

Gradually, his ability became stronger and stronger, and the effect of treatment became better and better, but every time he suffered, the pain became bigger and bigger.

Until one day, he saw the creature that brought him pain and strength again.

The creature was already a mummy in the military school museum.

He started to study this mummy, which was crazier and more secretive than Emperor Lola's original development of inhibitors.

Finally, after more than a year, a super guide named Salka was born.

He can sort out tens of thousands of sentries at the same time, he can teach the guide how to use his spiritual energy, and he can even change without suffering.He just needs to come to this beast lord who has become a mummy, and absorb his remaining energy.

But he is not a real guide. To stimulate the energy of this mummy, a real guide is needed.

He must always keep in close contact with the guide. Whenever he needs it, he will bring a reliable person to this mummy.

The guide who was hypnotized and fell into a coma naturally established a connection with the corpse of the beast lord, awakening its remaining spiritual energy.

Zalka absorbs these energies and repairs the transferred pain.

Ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years.

In the war against alien beasts, human beings have an unknown secret weapon.

Everyone thought that the last shield of mankind was a guide named Zalka.

Only Zalka himself knew that, in fact... it was the mummy behind him.

Perhaps this secret was once known to someone else.But the last emperor of the Galaxy Empire who reached a secret agreement with the alien beast overestimated his own strength and underestimated the strength of the alien beast lord.

The Galactic Empire fell, and no one knows it since then.

Until tonight, the sentinel who broke into this place got a glimpse of this frightening and terrifying secret.

Zalka slowly let go of his hand, the sun was about to come out, but this time the energy he had absorbed was not enough.

Besides, the beast lord was just a mummy after all, and his energy had already been exhausted after so many years. It didn't make much difference if he absorbed more or less.

If it wasn't for the Battle of Tana Star, the transferred things hadn't had time to deal with them, and if the person sent the day before had not been injured too badly, maybe he wouldn't have to be so eager.

Zalka didn't know what he would do next time if another sentry was injured and needed medical treatment after this time.

He didn't even know what he was now, man?Or a strange beast?

Or nothing, just a... monster that should have died a long time ago, should not have existed in human history.

"Why... didn't you say it?" Shi Luo looked at the ray of morning sun leaking into the museum.

Salka glanced at Shi Luo, not intending to answer this kind of question at all.

No one wants to be regarded as a monster. Compared with a monster, he would rather be a weirdo, a cold, unreasonable weirdo, or a bastard who always gives up, but he is still a human being, not a monster.

But when facing this sentinel, when all this was really smashed, Salka found that he didn't really understand himself.

At least in front of Shi Luo, he would rather be a monster than a bastard.

"One day these things will be exposed, and the people who have been deceived will be even more angry at that time. They will take you to court, and maybe you will be exhibited with this monster!"

"Who cares?" Salka chuckled, "Do you still remember what you said when we first met? One day, I will also face my own judgment, but when that day comes At that time, I hope that I have a clear conscience."
