Sure enough, people in the military and academics in research institutes do things in completely different ways.

His request is very straightforward, handing over what we want can give you a chance to save your life.

But Buzz is a little helpless, how should he pay it?

"I've only seen her inside the Pioneers, but it's only been for a few seconds." Bastan said in vain, knowing that now it is a result to say it or not to say it, because they still can't find the heart of steel.

"She? Do you mean Steelheart is a woman? The officer keenly spotted the loophole in his words and asked, "According to you, she is still a pioneer?" ”

Nodding, Bas acquiesced to the other party's question.

Perhaps thinking about something, the officer did not continue to ask, and the two fell silent.

Nervously rubbing his hands, pressing the lines in his palms over and over again, Bass's heart was extremely nervous.

They have gotten the information they want, and they're useless on their own.

To greet him, it should be to extinguish the mouth, right?

Just as he was too nervous to control himself, and one foot began to spasm from the tension, the officer stood up and walked out the door.

From beginning to end, he didn't tell Buzz who he really was and who he was.

Bass, on the other hand, was escorted back to his cell in a daze.

Holding his calf, which was in sharp pain from cramps, Buzz moaned in pain.

The fear of death made him lose his mind.

To say not to be afraid, that is a lie.

No one likes to die, and people who are not afraid of death are not really afraid of death, but that there is a certain will that is stronger than the fear of death.

He was just an ordinary person, an ordinary person who grew up in a family of ordinary researchers.

Since childhood, he has been taught how to live a better life for himself, how to make mankind rich and strong, and how to make his country rich.

As an adult, he also got his wish to enter the research system, which is far more prestigious and better than the workers who dig metal ore underground and the merchants who travel between the two planets day and night.

Until he traveled to Terrahir to find a solution to the toxin, he believed in solving the suffering and helping humanity get out of its predicament.

It's a pity that this belief has now been shattered.

A search team of seven researchers, a dozen or so bodyguards, whose sacrifices turned out to be just a conspiracy of some people............

This left Bas with no direction.

During these more than 30 days of detention, his heart changed countless times.

From the beginning of his decision to keep his mouth shut, to now give up all hope, his heart is left with the fear of death.

Once a person's belief is broken, his will will slide very quickly to the other extreme.

That night, Bas didn't feel sleepy, and he only had one thought in his head, and that was how to escape.

Again, I don't know how many days have passed, no one has interrogated, no one has told him anything, it is as if he is out of touch with the whole world.

If it weren't for the fact that there were guards who brought him food once a day, he would even feel that he was the only one left in this world.

Thoughtless thoughts swirled in his head.

Have they found the Heart of Steel? He was afraid to see the result, and if these people found Steelheart, they would kill him immediately.

Because he has no use for it anymore.

Didn't find it? Who will interrogate him? Will you choose to read the memory?

Torture? In this day and age, no one would choose this ancient method unless immediate intelligence was needed.

As long as there is a medical pod, there is no fig leaf left in your memory.

In order to find all the memories in the prisoner's brain, they will of course use certain means to make sure that you can't hide any information.

The price of this is a complete mental breakdown of the prisoner......

As soon as he thought of this, Bass's body began to tremble unconsciously, and he curled up tightly on the bed, he was afraid of being treated like this.

Either way, he won't be able to see the light of day again, and he knows that very well.

The daily boring waiting, coupled with the endless mental torture, made Bass's mental state worse and worse.

Several times a day, he would look at the cell door in horror, always feeling that it had been opened, and he would be greeted by a ruthless guard and a black head bag.

Finally, one day, the cell door opened.

"Come out!" The guard commanded.

Basmu looked at him blankly, his eyes vacant, and several times in a row, he instinctively tried to stand up, but he couldn't.

"Get him out!" Someone ordered.

It was only after being carried forward in such a mess that Buzz slowly came to his senses.

Because the guards didn't take him to the interrogation room, did the day finally come?

The more he knew what was going to happen to him, the more fearful Bass became.

Quite simply, he resigned himself to his fate......

Eventually, he was taken into a laboratory-like place.

Injections were injected into his body.

The cold liquid and the pain gave him a little energy.

Confessional? Or is it a poison? It's not bad.

He actually smiled at the man next to him who injected him.

Then, he didn't know anything......

When he regained consciousness, Buzz realized that he had not gone to heaven and that he was still alive.

"What is this place?" Sit up and look around.

Buzz found out that he was in a spaceship, and that he was the only one in the room.

Standing up, he staggered to the controls, only to realize that the ship was thinking about the galaxy's frontier.

And the direction turned out to be the direction in which human beings came.

This is a solar ship.

Using optical energy, it can travel in space for a long time without worrying about lack of energy.

But the trade-off is that it has to travel at a speed lower than the speed of light, which is not what the energy used to do so can be provided.

The destination is locked and cannot be changed at all.

AI clearances are also completely locked, and Buzz discovers that he has no control over the ship at all.

Come to think of it, would they be so kind to let him go?

There are only two possibilities, one, that he was banished.

Why? Instead of killing him, they chose this banishment? Buzz couldn't figure it out.

Second, he's a decoy now, just to lure Steelheart to him.

It was ridiculous, but he couldn't think of any other possibility.

But why did Steelheart come to him? What did he have to ask her for? He didn't know either.

Soon, he realized that he was the only one in the ship.

Time can sharpen a person's heart.

Without the threat of death, Bas slowly accepted this life.

Wake up every day, accept the AI's arrangement, eat, exercise, and pass the time.

Day after day, after a long time, he didn't think about what would happen to the humans and whether it would be humane for them to be replaced by clones.

Because of himself, he has become an outcast of humanity.

A life without hope finally made Bass's patience disappear, and he decided to cut himself off.

In this way, there is no longer any point in using him as bait or banishing him.

With a month to go, he will leave the Terrahir system.

Just leave this galaxy and end your life! Everything, dust to dust, dust to dust.

Walking back to the only bedroom, Buzz looked at the dormant pod in the middle.

After setting the time to thirty days, he lay down.

Bass, who woke up again, did not change his mind.

It's easy to end your own life.

Turning off the life support system is fine.

Banished, naturally he doesn't have to worry about life or death, no one cares about his life or death anyway.

Oxygen levels were declining, and Buzz sat down against the console.

"It's not a loss, I've seen that kind of magical thing, and ......... I did my job. Bas smiled wryly.

Although he didn't live many years in this life, he was still very satisfied.

The legendary artifact, if only we could see it again.

Perhaps he was dying, and Buzz remembered the scene when he met Selea.

Overhead, a light cast from the shattered glass dome.

Perhaps because of this sunlight, there is a rare vegetation growing here.

It is precisely because the Pioneer Mission's life support system is always in operation even if it crashes, that the Pioneer is one of the few places where light-loving plants can exist in Terrahir.

What did the woman look like............

The black lace, the silver-white heavy skirt, the silver-gray hair, the cold and delicate face, and the emotionless eyes all made him remember it vividly.

Although it was only a short time of two sentences, he could accurately recall her appearance.

Feeling his consciousness blur, a smile appeared on Buzz's face.

It's worth it.

In the confusion, he found that the woman in his memory bent down and touched his head with her fingers.

"Finally dead." She said this sentence, and her tone seemed to be satisfactory only if he was dead.

Perhaps it was a breath in his heart, and Buzz struggled again.

The woman's eyes were cold, and she tapped her finger on Buzz's forehead.

Her fingers were like iron rods, and after this blow, he finally couldn't hold it anymore and closed his eyes......

Die............ It turned out to be like this.

Buzz felt like his memories were constantly circulating, and the scenes he had experienced flashed before his eyes.

Finally, a light appeared in front of him.

Paradise? Buzz thought as he looked at the scenery in front of him.

Wait, where is this? He turned his head and saw that this was not heaven.

Why? Because of the Heart of Steel, watching him not far behind him.

"You can only accept this price." She said coldly.

She has no feelings, not only is her voice cold, but there is no change in her expression.

"The price?" Buzz was stunned.

He thought that the death of human beings was the price, but he didn't expect it to be like that.

"Yes, you have to go and complete my mission." Selea said.

Mission...... What is it? He didn't question her words, but asked.

He's dead anyway, and whatever the mission is, it doesn't matter to him anymore.

"Make God." Perhaps because his answer satisfied her, she was no longer that cold look.

Although the expression is not thousands of miles away, it is not as good as you.

"How?" He didn't need to ask for a reason, he just knew what he had to do.

With Selea's fingers, some information was sent into Bass's mind.

Recreate the core, it turns out that they are called by this name.

Collect the four cores, and you will be able to complete the basic conditions for the creation of gods.

This is his first mission!

"Core? Where are they? Buzz asked, he had already died once, and he didn't have any worries.

Glancing at Bass, Selea walked out.

It was a hill, and in the distance, a huge flying machine was standing above the ground.

On the side of the two of them, an hourglass surrounded by wattles is very conspicuous.

"That's ......" Bass certainly recognized it, the mark of Sandra.

"Here's the transport plane heading to the Pioneer, you know what to do, right?" Selea said as she looked back at Bass.

To the Pioneer?? This is?

Buzz didn't understand, he went back to the old days when he died?

Selea saw his confusion and said softly, "I don't have the ability to control time, this is one of your abilities. ”

Buzz didn't understand, why did he have such ability?

Selea didn't continue to explain, she glanced at Buzz and faded away.

A small key appeared in the palm of his hand, and he realized that this was the body of the Heart of Steel.

Gripping the key with his hand, a miracle appeared in front of him.

He could understand everything around him, even the huge transport plane in the distance.

Running down the hill, he knew that everything was waiting for him ahead......

Returning to reality from the memory, Buzz smiled on his face.

In the palm of his hand, the small key is still as good as new.

"You chose me to complete your mission, and I have done it now." God has been created.

"It wasn't very successful, but I did my best." Buzz muttered softly, as if the little key could understand him.

The little woman appeared in front of him and looked at him quietly: "I understand, it's not your fault. ”

Without getting the Time Crystal, in fact this god is incomplete.

As Lily said, the Time Crystal was the latest to make the core of recreation, and she was also the most powerful.

Although Buzz had made a copy of the Time Crystal, it was just a fake.

Her strength was only able to complete the process of accelerating the new god, and in the end, she was taken away by Sha Sha after failing to fuse her power into the new god's body.

"Do you hate her?" Buzz asked about the body of the time crystal he had created.

Although it was Selea who first met him, the emotionless girl still failed to make him like her at that time.

Selea and Bass are more like a resident soul, with a host.

The woman Bass really likes is Lily, who hasn't left the earth yet......

At that time, Lily was still a young girl who was not deeply involved in the world, no, it should be said that she was still a crystal sleeping on the throne.

It was with Steelheart's abilities that he could see what it was like to sleep Lily.

Unfortunately, he had to leave Lily because he was to follow in the footsteps of the Bloodblade family and obtain the vital dagger.

And countless years later, goodbye, it was already her son standing in front of him.

"It's ironic that I saw the shadow of his mother in him." Bas laughed to himself.

"You just asked me if I hate her, if in terms of our mission, I don't hate her." Selea said, looking at the colossus in the universe.

"But from you, I hate her." With that, Selea turned to face Bass, and she said hatefully.

"She just slept there, and she snatched your soul." There was a hint of jealousy in her words.
