Chapter 8: Night Talk
On the first night of the Star Nest, Han Danteng lay on the top bunk, feeling the soreness of his muscles, staring at the pitch-black ceiling.
The entire dormitory was dead silent.
Of course, this dead silence is not an ominous sign, as soon as the assembly ended, Wang Yaoxing and his two roommates were called away by the veteran with a red badge on his shoulder, Han Danteng watched his roommate leave in a daze, and then washed up boringly, went to bed bored, and looked through the booklet "Introduction to the Star Nest" boringly, and at a certain moment the lights went out, Han Danteng put down the booklet and stared at the ceiling.
The next bedroom quickly quieted down, and the world seemed to shut down.
In retrospect, the two roommates other than Wang Yaoxing were very distinctive, and Han Danteng looked at them with an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
These two are twins, both wearing beige sweatshirts and jeans, the difference is that the pupils are blue and red, medium stature, one wears black-framed glasses, the other is not wearing, their eyes are clear, their faces are not exquisite, but they both have a well-behaved and delicate atmosphere, with soft edges and corners and a high nose bridge. Han Danteng remembered that the one with red eyes was called Lin Xia, the one with blue eyes was called Lin Dong, and Lin Xia called Lin Dong his brother. The elder brother looks more mature and stable, the younger brother feels more agile, Lin Dong's blue eyes are sea and sky blue, which is very good-looking, Lin Xia's red eyes are flame red, which is sharper, Han Danteng guessed that the two must have controlled the power of ice and the power of flame respectively, but the problem is that everyone is a royal family, and they should control more than two powers.
In this environment, people always think a lot, and Han Danteng feels that he is slowly falling into "philosophical thinking".
Footsteps swooped out.
Han Danteng's spirits perked.
It's getting closer, and it's at the door.
Stop, open the door.
Han Danteng got up and looked.
The three roommates walked into the dormitory, picked up their washing tools, and walked out lightly.
Han Danteng was slightly embarrassed, he wanted to say hello, but no one's eyes swept over.
Soon, the roommates returned.
I couldn't see who it was in the dark, but I heard the voice was Lin Xia, he kicked on the bed ladder and whispered to Han Danteng: "Instructors are looking for someone to talk to, remember the eight-character policy!"
"What?" Han Danteng raised his eyebrows.
"Be loyal to the motherland, loyal to the people!"
“......”
Without further ado, Lin Xia went to bed to rest.
Han Danteng was worried in his heart and waited.
There was no movement for a long time.
Han Danteng's eyelids began to fight, maybe the instructors are going to sleep, and they will find someone tomorrow?
Shall I sleep then?
A slight sound of the door opening sounded.
"Han Danteng. Someone shouted.
This shout was very light, like a dream when people were confused, but the shout came into Han Danteng's ears, and Han Danteng's mind suddenly cleared up, like thunder.
Han Danteng woke up, and he looked at the dormitory door.
A tall figure of a middle-aged man.
"General?" Han Danteng recognized that face, it was the one who stood on the national flag stand today to give a lecture, General Zhou Guodong!
Han Danteng immediately dressed and got out of bed, and because he was too nervous, he stepped on the bed ladder and slipped a little, and his feet fell to the ground.
Boom.
With a hot face, Han Danteng looked at his roommates and the general apologetically, but found that the three of them were still asleep, while the general's face was calm.
Han Danteng hurriedly stood up, walked in front of the general, and stood upright.
At this time, Han Danteng suddenly realized that his feet didn't seem to feel the slightest pain.
The general turned and walked out of the dormitory.
"Come here. ”
Han Danteng followed and walked to the corridor.
"Look. The general said.
Han Danteng looked ahead.
Ahead, the scorched black earth spread to the horizon, and countless soldiers in various animal skin clothes roared, clustering several hideous giant beasts.
Han Danteng was stunned.
The giant beast roared, the demon dragon spread its wings to cover the sky, and the giant tortoise's body moved like a mountain and caused a great tremor.
On the sky, a terrifying crack that was extremely black was like a wound in the world, and the silver battleships were suspended around, and the light of the muzzles was condensed, comparable to the scorching sun.
Rumble!
The thick pillar of light illuminated the earth and headed straight for Han Danteng.
"What is this!?"
The pillar of light devoured Han Danteng, and all scenes dissipated in the dazzling light.
"It's ......"
The fluorescent lights in the dormitory building have long been extinguished, only a few faint blue street lamps emit a hazy light, and the soldiers on duty stand upright at the intersection like sculptures.
"Our enemies. Zhou Guodong said.
"Impossible, right?" Han Danteng muttered, "That's the dragon, and the battleship, our enemy?"
"Did you see that?" asked Zhou Guodong.
Han Danteng was stunned.
"You can see that you do have royal blood. Zhou Guodong smiled, but suddenly froze as if struck by lightning, his black pupils dilated slightly, as if he had thought of something terrible.
"General?"
Zhou Guodong quickly regained his composure and said: "Just now I used my high-dimensional dimensional gene system to enlighten the recipients, so that they can see their old enemies in this life, anyone with royal blood will see an overwhelming number of soldiers and giant beasts, which are our enemies for thousands of years, the Seven Nobles and their slaves. ”
"Those giant beasts, are they real?" Han Danteng's eyes trembled slightly.
"At least in the canonical records, they existed, but since the War of the Ancients, they have disappeared, leaving only legends. ”
Han Danteng scratched his head and said, "But, general, how can we face those enemies?"
"That's why we chose you, you are all the elite of the royal family, you are different, you have an extremely strong high-dimensional plane gene system, and your strength is enough to fight against the seven nobles. ”
Han Danteng choked, pursed his lips, and said: "But since I was a child, I have never seen a high-dimensional dimensional gene system, I don't have it myself, and I haven't seen anyone else use it, I have always been an ordinary person." ”
Zhou Guodong looked at Han Danteng: "It's true that we have never found anything unusual about you, but in our rating of all the royal families, you are the highest level. You're number one. ”
"In other words, you are the one with the greatest potential among all the people here," Zhou Guodong smiled, "We choose to believe you." But personally, you don't have that kind of personality that deserves to be entrusted with great responsibilities, but I obey the organization. ”
Han Danteng looked at his hands silently, and suddenly a little hope was born in his heart.
In his ordinary twenty years of life, this is the first time that anyone has said this about him.
Perhaps, I really have potential?
"Genes are mutated, and so are royal genes, and your parents gave birth to you unusually, and the Star Nest will tap your full potential. ”
"Really?"
"Of course, tomorrow morning we will gather on time, and everyone will be checked for high-dimensional genes. Zhou Guodong said.
"Yes. Han Danteng gave a non-standard military salute.
Zhou Guodong nodded.
In an instant, the surrounding scene changed, and Han Danteng found himself lying on the bed.
Everything just now was like a dream.
Sleepiness welled up, Han Danteng didn't think much about it, and fell asleep.
Outside the dormitory, Zhou Guodong wore a military uniform and walked away.
The soldier on duty saluted.
Star Nest, 91st basement floor, General Staff Conference Room.
Zhou Guodong walked into the dark conference room, and as he entered, a blue smiley face symbol was projected into the air.
"Stargate. Zhou Guodong stopped and looked at the smiling face, the smiling face is called Xingmen, which is the artificial intelligence that dominates the entire Star Nest information system.
"The Council of Elders adopted a resolution and drew up a list of personnel to be trained. Xingmen said gently.
"Open. ”
"Yes. ”
The conference room lit up in an instant.
In the spacious and bright oval space, there is a huge round table with four screens hanging from the round table, and an ancient bronze artifact is placed around the conference room, with intricate patterns on it.
The screen opens and a table appears.
"1. Han Danteng. 2. Lin Dong. 3. Lin Xia. 4. Tao Tao...... 72. Wang Yaoxing. ”
"Most of these seventy-two people have activated the high-dimensional gene system, all of them are above A, and the high-dimensional gene system of the unactivated ones is also extremely special, and the general detection of the stargate has not been answered. In the future training, these seventy-two people must face more rigorous training, and in the execution of the task, they will be given the most arduous and dangerous ones. "Stargate spoke," this is the message of the elders. ”
"Yes. Zhou Guodong saluted.
"Delivered. ”
The conference room dimmed again, Zhou Guodong walked to the screen, tapped a few times on the round table, popped up the keyboard, and then opened the search interface and entered the text.
"War of the Ancients. ”
The search results are an electronic file.
Zhou Guodong read this file many years ago, but he forgot a lot of details, and the scene Han Danteng saw today made him think of something.
"The War of the Ancients, a battle in which the royal family and the Seven nobles joined forces, repelled the invasion and enslavement of alien races. ”
In a short sentence, Zhou Guodong frowned, he had the impression that this file was by no means so concise, but he couldn't remember what was inside.
"Xingmen, after the Battle of the Ancients, it was the change of the Seven Nobles, right?" Zhou Guodong asked.
"Yes. ”
"Bring up the file of the Seven Nobles. ”
The archives on the change of the seven nobles are classified in a complicated manner, and the process of rebellion and their crimes of the seven nobles are recorded in detail.
"Xiao Zhou, did you find something?" Suddenly, there was a chuckle from behind the elder.
Zhou Guodong took a deep breath, turned around, and bowed.
"Hello Third Elder. ”
"Xiao Zhou, don't go to check the ancient battle, it's been too long," the third elder was on crutches, his face could not be seen clearly in the dim light, but it showed the ravine of the years, "and it has no effect on the present." ”
"The younger generation obeys the teachings. Zhou Guodong replied respectfully.
"Go ahead. ”
"Yes. Zhou Guodong got up and exited the conference room.
The Third Elder looked up: "Star Gate." ”
"In. ”
"Clear all information about the War of the Ancients and never recover. ”
"Yes. ”
A sword-sharp light flashed in the Third Elder's small eyes, and he stared at the progress bar on the screen until it was one hundred percent.
"War of the Ancients information, completely cleared. ”
