The Eldar, a once mighty race that dominated the galaxy but ultimately perished due to their insane pursuit of pleasure.

At their peak, they controlled millions of stars and possessed highly advanced science and technology as well as highly developed psionic energy. While humans were still making fire by rubbing sticks together, the Eldar had already become a vast empire that ruled over the stars.

The highly developed society led the Eldar, whose desires were fully satisfied, to gradually become corrupt. They did their best to find newer and more exciting ways to enjoy themselves, until their final moment of depravity. Their debauchery and pleasure ultimately led to the birth of the warp god "Slaanesh".

The moment the evil god appeared, the vast majority of the Elven race and their ancient gods were devoured by the evil god. To this day, the once mighty Elven empire is reduced to only a few Ark Worlds and an exiled race.

The Clown Troupe is a force that emerged after the decline of the Eldar. They are literally space clowns. This group of Eldar who love to perform are among the few remaining Eldar gods and followers of the laughing god "Hippoggi".

They are all professional actors dedicated to recreating Eldar mythology and the fall of Eldar on stage to warn the world. In addition, they are responsible for protecting the Black Library, a treasure trove of Eldar science and psionic knowledge hidden deep within the Webpath.

Regardless, Qin Mo never expected that the Valen family would dare to openly invite the Spirit Clan clown troupe to perform.

This would be considered a serious crime of "colluding with aliens" in any imperial world!

He turned his head and noticed the judge beside him trembling with rage.

"Alien! How dare she commit such blasphemy!"

Eileencia gritted her teeth and began to search for the weapon hidden inside her loose dress.

The next moment, the entire banquet hall suddenly went dark, leaving only the light at the edge of the stage.

"Knock knock!"

A deep drumbeat sounded, and a theater actor dressed as a Mechanicus monk walked to the front of the stage, holding a floating water sphere the size of a human head in his hands, with double-helix genetic material floating inside.

He raised it slightly, the water sphere shattered, and countless genetic materials drifted throughout the banquet hall.

Qin Mo was dumbfounded. He watched as the "mechanical priest" acted like a creator, waving his hand lightly, and the genetic material around people generated the earliest aquatic creatures, then terrestrial animals, and finally upright humans.

These creatures walked around people with lifelike vividness. Qin Mo raised his hand and gently poked a phantom creature next to him. The creature immediately shattered and disappeared. Everything was so dreamlike and real.

Immediately afterwards, three other elegantly dressed actors stepped to the front of the stage and danced wildly around the "mechanical priest," as if they were holding a lively ball, before the performance ended and everyone dispersed.

The mechanical priest retrieved all the genetic material into his arms, then, holding the restored water sphere, slowly sank into the ground.

The banquet hall brightened up again, but the actors had disappeared, leaving only an empty stage.

"They escaped." Eileencia clutched her throbbing head; she had been controlled by that dreamlike psychic power and hadn't been able to retaliate.

Qin Mo remembered that every clown of the Spirit Clan was favored by the Laughing God "Xi Gaoqi". With the power of the Laughing God, they could freely enter and exit the net channel to achieve the effect of appearing and disappearing like ghosts.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the performance just now was an ancient history of the nest city of Cronus."

Lilith walked to the center of the stage, bowed slightly to the crowd, and smiled politely, saying, "I believe many of you here are unfamiliar with this history, or even find it strange."

"And what I want to tell you is that there is a huge secret hidden in this history. In some corner of this land we live on, there are treasures from ancient times buried."

"That originated from the Golden Age, a core STC piece about genetic biology."

As soon as Lilith finished speaking, a heated debate erupted throughout the banquet hall.

As is well known, STC stands for "Standard Construction Template," and it is said that they contained all the technological knowledge of mankind at that time, and were one of the main factors in mankind's expansion into the Milky Way and conquest of the stars.

STCs come in various forms, but a complete and fully functional STC system is ultimately a computer with the ability to evolve.

It provides human colonists with construction details, enabling them to build efficient tools using any locally available materials without any prior experience or knowledge, thus beginning their colonization efforts.

After the Golden Age, these precious technological systems gradually disappeared. In modern times, a complete and fully functional STC is so rare in the Milky Way that it is practically mythical. Therefore, even a rumor about the discovery of an "STC" is enough to prompt an entire Mechanicus expedition to search for it.

And now, Lilith dares to publicly announce that the world of Kronos Nest City contains a precious STC core, and such an important one, directly related to genetic biology.

Qin Mo turned his head to look at Eileencia, and he saw suppressed psionic lightning brewing in her eyes.

For the Imperial Inquisition, such precious technological artifacts are equally significant. After all, the Inquisition is dedicated to protecting the Empire's security, and anything that can enhance the Empire's strength is a sacred object sought by the Inquisitors.

"My friends, I am sharing this news here for the sake of the revival of the Empire and the glory of the great Emperor. I guarantee with the reputation of the Valen family that this news is true and reliable."

"Furthermore, I would like to make an agreement with everyone here: if any of you are fortunate enough to discover this STC core, the Warren family is willing to exchange an equivalent value of property for the knowledge about gene-based life extension contained within."

Lilith Valentine bowed again and slowly walked off the stage.

At the same time, the castle gates opened, and a group of frenzied nobles rushed out of the castle and left "Dream Island".

They were eager to send the news of this bombshell back to their respective families, hoping to gain an advantage in future comprehensive explorations.

Soon, only the Osiris family, the Anvil family, and Qin Mo remained at the banquet.

Grove Anvil stood up, his gaze blazing as he stared at Lilith. "You're starting a war! By spreading this secret without authorization, those greedy Upper Nest nobles will soon be locked in a bloody battle for the treasure! If the Governor finds out, the Valen family will surely face his wrath!"

Lilith remained calm as she explained, "Lord Grove, you underestimate the Governor. He knew all along. In other words, everything I did today was at the Governor's behest."

Grove's eyes flickered uncertainly. In fact, in the distant era of strife, the world of Kronos's Nest City was ruled by only three families who were present.

Later, with the rise of human emperors and the grand era of expeditions, the Kronos family, who made outstanding contributions to the expeditions, came with the expedition fleet and were thus crowned as the rulers of this world.

Therefore, certain hidden histories are open secrets to all three families.

Lilith then turned her gaze to the head of the Osiris family, James, who remained gentle. He smiled at Lilith and said in a clear voice:

"The generosity of the Valen family is truly beyond my expectations. I never imagined that Ms. Lilith would be willing to share this secret with everyone. If I am fortunate enough to find this relic, I would be very willing to cooperate with the Valen family to study its mysteries together, and repay their generosity with goodwill."

Lilith nodded her thanks, and soon the heads of the two powerful families left.

Only Qin Mo and Qin Mo remained to face the mysterious head of the Lilith family.
