A is in StarCraft, just disembarked from the Zerg Prince spaceship.

......

The symbol of the Apocalypse Organization was placed on the screen.

They looked up.

The more I look at it, the more I feel that this graphic is filled with some kind of ominous biochemical infection.

It no longer resembles the sun; it's a virus.

So now they assume that this virus really exists and has been obtained by the Apocalypse Organization.

It is known that its function is to infinitely enhance the power of alphas, and in human experiments, alphas develop symptoms faster than omegas.

Could it be that in that prophecy, the virus's effect was actually on all of humanity, but the beta genes were fragile and prone to death, while omegas developed symptoms more slowly, and most omegas were torn apart by the alphas who developed symptoms before they even had a chance to develop symptoms?

Therefore, the Apocalypse Organization inoculated small amounts of the virus into alpha, beta, and omega children respectively:

Alpha children are the first to show mutations, and the degree of mutation is drastic.

The genes of beta children are too fragile; when their genes collapse, they all die.

As the only omega child, Gao Xing was usually kept in a separate room and given special protection, so he was not harmed by the mutated alpha children.

Moreover, his illness progressed slowly and was milder. Later, with the help of Qin Qin's family, he became the only surviving experimental subject.

So the story goes like this: the Apocalypse Organization injected Gao Xing with that virus, Qin Qin's parents' Resilience Foundation Medicine protected him as he grew up, and then Qin Qin developed a combustion medicine to counteract the virus's effects.

......

Holy crap, it matches up! It matches everything!

That unknown substance is most likely this virus!

Gao Tian was not vaccinated against that virus, so he is now about to have his essence burned away by Qin Qin's burning agent.

In theory, if we were to give him an injection of that virus at this point, given Gao Tian's exhausted state, the proliferating virus would actually act as a stimulant, counteracting the effects of the burning medicine.

As long as the dosage is controlled properly.

Their counteracting effect is similar to when Gao Xing was infected with that virus and then took Qin Qin's burning agent.

What is highly toxic to other A types is a panacea for Gao Tian, ​​who is rapidly weakening!

......

***********

......

The rescue efforts on the other side of the mountain are proceeding urgently.

During the adjutant's trial, he ultimately failed to reveal his motive. The judge, having exhausted all his strength and resources, had no choice but to imprison him according to the law.

Why is this guy so stubborn? Even if he's not, can't he just say he is? They'll believe him if he says he is!

But he just wouldn't say it.

There's no way out, there's really no way out.

......

The Imperial Prison is located beneath the palace, resembling a large, enclosed box cast from a special alloy.

The prison walls are nearly five meters thick, making it difficult for even a normal female insect to dig them open with its claws extended.

The deepest solitary confinement cells in the prison consist of individual cubicles, each shaped like an observation room, somewhat like an enlarged oven. They are square alloy rooms with transparent observation windows on the walls.

The alloys here are all specially made alloys, and they are also electrified with high voltage, energy suppression locks, and gravitational fields.

The adjutant was brought in by the guards.

His wrists were also locked with energy shackles, but compared to other space pirates, his treatment was obviously much better; at least he could move around relatively freely.

The guards didn't put chains on him; they simply put him in a solitary cell, and the guards withdrew. The cell door closed behind him, and the lock clicked shut.

The judge didn't know what to say to him, so he just stood outside the door and said, "I hope you will reflect on your actions and start anew."

The adjutant remained silent.

When he was young, he was the adjutant of the Second Prince, and his military rank was higher than that of this judge. Does he need to redo the insect? How should he do the insect? He doesn't need this insect teaching.

He looked at the private room across the street.

The cells here are specially made, specifically for holding criminal leaders. The cell diagonally opposite is where Orion is imprisoned.

The female insect has highly developed senses; its thick, transparent barrier is enough to prevent physical contact, but it cannot block sight and sound.

Orion was suspended by special energy chains, several of which pierced his shoulder blades, insect wings, and bound his hands, legs, and neck.

Part of it was fixed to the wall, and part of it was fixed to the ground, leaving him kneeling there in a humiliating position with his arms outstretched, unable to move an inch.

He lowered his head, his long, meticulously combed silver hair now hanging loosely, obscuring most of his face, revealing only the taut lines of his jaw and his chapped lips.

The adjutant stood quietly on this side, watching the figure on the other side.

Orion plotted a rebellion, slaughtered many planets while working as a space pirate, and spread harmful drugs within the Empire, endangering public safety. He is absolutely facing the death penalty.

The adjutant had made some contributions at a crucial moment, and because he had not participated in the massacre of planets or the distribution of drugs, he was only sentenced as an accomplice. His crimes were less serious than those of some of the space pirates who participated in the massacre of planets. His merits and demerits canceled each other out, and he might only be imprisoned for a few decades.

He quietly called out, "Your Highness."

The cell was quiet.

Many leaders of space pirates are also imprisoned here.

But with Orion here and his adjutant now in, the pirate leaders sensed something was off. They huddled quietly in their cells, none daring to utter a sound.

Orion took a heavy, suppressed breath.

He heard it.

Orion, who was hanging there, moved slightly.

He slowly raised his head, his silver hair sliding to both sides, revealing scarlet eyes.

His gaze fell on his adjutant, as if it were poisoned.

Orion's lips twitched into a twisted smile: "Sasha."

"Your Highness."

"Sasha."

"Sasha."

......

Orion called out to his adjutant several times in a strange tone.

The adjutant listened quietly.

Orion strained to look him straight in the eye: "You've been with me for over forty years, since I was still at the Imperial Military Academy... I never imagined you would betray me."

"For over forty years, you've been the bug I've trusted most, you've never made a mistake. I just don't understand, can you tell me why? What did that brat give you? How did he win you over? Or did Atticus give you something in return? Or were you sent by him from the beginning? Have I been played by you for over forty years? Hmm?"

The adjutant just stared at him without saying a word.

Having served Orion for over forty years, no one understood Orion's temperament better than him.

Right now, His Highness is only angry because he lost and was betrayed. If you were to say it out loud, he would be even angrier.

The High Prince had never tried to bribe him; he had only spoken to him once before, saying that if Orion came to power, the Zerg would have no future. He asked him to keep an eye on Orion at a crucial moment.

He had no vested interests with the High Prince's faction, nor was he an undercover agent; he had always been loyal to Orion.

In the end, he finally remembered what the Crown Prince had said back then.

After watching Orion grow increasingly insane, the words the High Prince spoke to him turned into a heavy plea.

The First Prince is perhaps the person who loves the Second Prince the most in the world.

But he would absolutely not allow Orion to take power.

"Sasha, I know you are loyal to Orion. But look at the path he's taking."

"I'm not asking you to betray him. I'm only asking you to keep an eye on him. Within your capabilities, try your best to minimize unnecessary casualties and preserve any possibility for the future."

He has no affiliation with any faction.

He has never been an undercover agent for anyone.

He only suddenly understood the choices made by the Crown Prince and the Empress at the last moment.

They love him, but they will do everything in their power to suppress him.

Because the Second Prince is a bad guy.

He is in his sixties and has stood quietly behind His Highness for the past forty years.

I've always believed that those who achieve great things don't concern themselves with trifles, and that ruthlessness is a plus for rulers. I've always thought that the Second Prince's personality isn't a big problem; he's just in a bad mood, and when he's in a good mood, he'll naturally revert to his old self...

But no. He really is a bad guy.

He stood there in silence.

Orion looked at him, who was completely unmoved. He hung there like a dying insect nailed to a specimen board, and finally stopped struggling, only letting out a meaningless laugh from deep in his chest.

The adjutant kept watching him.

His eyes were calm, yet gentle.

"Your Highness, please do not be afraid. The First Prince and the Empress are waiting for you in the Land of Rebirth. This path is not so difficult, and I will accompany you."

Orion roared in fury: "Who wants to go with you! You betrayed me and still have the nerve to pretend! I don't want you! I don't want you!!!"

"I'll take it," the adjutant said with a hint of regret but also calmness. "It's been over forty years. I don't know what to do without you."

For more than two-thirds of his more than sixty years of life, he served Orion.

It's been over forty years.

Orion froze, the anger and ferocity on his face gradually fading, turning into a blank, lifeless stillness, devoid of all strength.

He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter the last word.

It's always like this.

They're all like that, always like that.

His female father, Atticus, Sasha... bullied him, suppressed him, betrayed him, and then put on this hypocritical face.

They were all mean to him.

This is not his fault, it is all their fault, he did nothing wrong.

He was not wrong.
