Take a break! All the stars for the only guide

Chapter 74: Sacrifice of the Gate
She was listening to what the old guys in the Senate were saying with a serious expression. When she saw him coming, she secretly stuck out her tongue at him.

Saloi felt that all the worries, fears, anxieties, and random thoughts he had had in the past few days had vanished in this one move. He felt that he had finally landed.

He approached calmly. The fourth and fifth seats of the Senate saw him coming and introduced him to the people from the White Tower: "Everyone, this is the divine messenger I mentioned. Since the fall of the Archangel, the Senate asked him to help find the Archangel's bloodline successor."

Then he introduced the guides and sentinels who came this time to Saloi: "These are the first generation of outstanding people nurtured by the White Tower. You should get to know them."

Saloi glanced at the others and only looked at the girl, and stretched out his hand to her: "Hello, I'm Saloi."

The girl smiled, revealing her two pointed little fangs, and winked at him: "Hello, I'm your guide, Vera."

Vera is hailed as a 'genius guide' by the White Tower because she not only has S+ level mental power, but also has supernatural powers.

After this formal meeting between the two parties, the Senate secretly allowed Saloi to approach her.

Saloy asked, "Why?"

Si Xi said: "You don't need to know too much, just do what we say."

Saloi had just transformed from a spirit into a human form and had been living a semi-enclosed life in the sanctuary, so he didn't understand humans or human nature. He had never had much to say to these old guys, so he nodded and turned to leave.

It's a good thing to have a name and reason to get close to her, thought Saloi.

He began to learn how to be a human being with Vera, and they frequently went in and out of public places together. The longer they spent together, the more clingy Saloy became.

He would always bury his face in her hair from time to time, and would want to know where she was and what she was doing within an hour of parting; he showed her his spirit, a small green snake, which Vera loved, and Saloy would take the opportunity to wrap it around her wrist, follow her all day, and linger on her forearm until bedtime.

Vera is very busy as a guide. Not only does she have to purify a few fixed S-level sentinels, but she also has to take care of some of the more rampaging sentinels.

Whenever she did the purification, Saloy would become unusually restless and irritable.

He would deliberately walk around her or lie on the ground in winter and freeze himself to death to get her attention. Once, they had an argument and Vera was dissatisfied with his interference with her work, so she told him to get out in a fit of anger.

Saloi looked at her fiercely, turned around and left without saying a word. The Senate couldn't find the Holy Envoy, and the White Tower came to help, but no one knew where he had gone. Finally, he was found by security guards on the streets of another city in the early morning and was suspected of being a suspicious person, but no matter who tried to persuade him, he refused to leave.

Finally, Vera had no choice but to call him and ask him to come back, and Saloy went back obediently.

He stood in front of her door, leaning against the wall, without saying a word, as if he was in silent mode.

Vera asked him, "Are you still angry?"

"I was wrong," said Saloy.

He seemed to have really reflected on it seriously, and explained clearly that he shouldn't have disturbed her work analysis. Vera calmed down, and the two of them returned to being together every day.

However, it has been proven that men will not change, and will only do it more covertly the next time they knowingly commit the crime.

Saloi used his power and position to send all the sentries assigned to Vera out on missions, and they would not be back for ten days or half a month. As for the rest, he found excuses to put them in solitary confinement. In short, those who could be driven away were driven away, those who could be suppressed were suppressed, and those who could be warned were warned.

He used thunderous means to clean up all the men around Vera who had bad intentions towards her. He thought they could maintain such a delicate balance until that day when she came to Saloi and solemnly said that she wanted to hold a seal ceremony with a sentinel.

When Saloi asked why, she said, "This mission is very difficult. Only the sentinels that I have engraved can maintain long-term combat output."

He slammed the door and walked out, but this time, she didn't come to find him.

Vera led a team of sentinels to another galaxy to complete a mission, and was gone for three months.

Saloy sat under the tree every day and looked up at the stars in the sky. When no one was around, he would quietly regret why he had given her such a cold face when they last met, why couldn't he talk to her properly, she must have hated him
Later, when he heard that she had returned, Saloi went to greet her early, but saw her walking down the airship talking and laughing with the leading sentry.

Saloi's chest kept rising and falling. One voice told him to be patient, but another voice kept saying, "Kill him, kill that slutty man."

The girl saw him from afar and ran towards him with a smile. She had no grudge against the unpleasantness of their separation and didn't even remember it.

"Saint Emissary Saloi, what a coincidence, why are you here?"

Saloi looked at her bright smile and tried his best to suppress the gloomy expression on his face, trying not to let what happened last time happen again.

He said, “I just happened to be passing by.”

The girl didn't think much about it and told him about the thrills and interesting things in this mission. A group of sentinels came over and were very respectful to her, except for one sentinel who showed a hint of intimacy in his respect.

Vera introduced to Saloi: "This is the sentinel I engraved that I told you about last time."

There was a lot of relief in her words: "Fortunately, we made a wise decision, otherwise we would have been wiped out this time. Saloi, you know, I also discovered a new skill."

She leaned over to whisper excitedly in his ear, "It seems I can imprint more than one sentinel."

Saloi's clenched fists were shaking uncontrollably. He turned around abruptly, leaving the girl with a look of surprise, and walked away stiffly.

He didn't see Vera for a long time after that. Even if she came to the sanctuary occasionally, he would stay indoors.

He was afraid to see those clear eyes, afraid to see his own distorted face reflected in her eyes, which showed that he clearly wanted to possess her but was afraid that she would hate him after knowing it.

Ever since Vera's talent and ability were seen, a large amount of praise made her the number one person in the White Tower, and everything about her was spread and spread by people with crazy curiosity.

The Senate began to meet frequently.

In secret without anyone knowing, the Senate initiated a joint vote of twelve seats and passed a motion to execute the genius guide.

Because they stole a drop of archangel's blood at that time, and they could produce Sentinels continuously through advanced technology. The deep binding between Sentinels and Guides made those in power uneasy, fearing that Guides would overthrow their rule. After all, Vera, as a guide, could directly control and command the Sentinels.

So they sacrificed her under the pretext of letting the genius guide guard the "gate". They feared her, admired her, and longed to obtain her power. If they couldn't get it, they had to destroy it.

The interstellar world can be without a Guide. The only consequence is that the unpacified Sentinels will go berserk. So what? They can always create new Sentinels. But the interstellar world cannot have a second regime, nor can it accommodate a second ruler. The ruler's name is the Guide, and those who are ruled are called Sentinels, who are absolutely loyal to the Guide.
