Section 415: Silence of the Past (2)

After writing the last word and finishing the month's manuscript, Marin picked up the manuscript papers, packed them in paper bags, and snapped his fingers.

A private psychic courier belonging to Fort Carter's National Press leaps out of the void, the hand-shaped courier takes the paper bag, and then leaps into space after Marlin has paid for a unit of psionic energy - it takes the paper bag back to the lady who is good at drawing shotguns from under her skirt.

With that done, Marin returned to his bedroom, and Naples seemed to have endless attractions in the afternoon, with Faye and Nova taking the other girls out to play, and Rivo and Kloss choosing to take a nap.

So, pulling Cross's ears out from under the pillow and covering Rievo's blanket, Marlin left the bedroom softly.

Coming to the courtyard, the messenger belonging to the Church of the Goddess of Harvest was beeping on Marin's shoulder, Marin took the small letter box it was holding, gave the elf an acorn, watched it leap into space with satisfaction, and then took out the letterhead.

It was old Ferrero who sent the letter.

Colin has an accident, please go back to Fort Carter for details.

Wait a minute, how could something happen to Colin...... Marin frowned, he picked up the tablet, glanced at the first child's service era, and found that it was exactly when Colin was very young.

No way.

Surprised, Marlin quickly searched through the list of children in the first issue, and finally found Colin's name in the special list - Foundry No. 29, Colin Dawn's genes and the genes of a native woman who died unexpectedly in Fort Carter, which entered Fort Carter 20 years ago, and is an important test subject for the Forger to test whether half-breeds can survive on the ground and learn the technique.

"When Lord Colin Daun made this child, he had two choices, one was to pair it with the female genes he had just acquired, and the other was to use his own genes independently, and in the end, Lord Colin Daun chose to pair it, which proved to be a good choice."

"You know who that woman is."

"I don't know, but she was also genetically collected, and I didn't even see her body."

Unable to get an answer, Marin thought for a while, decided to leave the creed, set up the coordinates in the courtyard, and then directly let the World Tree pull a long-range portal.

The moment he walked through the portal, Marin saw a passage made of tree roots, with empty windows on both sides of the passage, and when he looked into the distance, he could see the deep subspace, and Marlin saw countless plant guards waving their tentacles swimming in the space. After walking a while, a door opened in front of Marin, and the next second he threw himself in, Marin saw the door of Fort Carter's teleportation center.

Marlin jumped according to the coordinates of the sacred oak tree, a perfect positioning.

"Your Excellency Marin, why did you come back?" The mage in charge of managing the teleportation recognized Marin.

"Come back and do something." Marin smiled and paid, then opened a short door and came straight out of front of the church gate.

After greeting the nervous guards, Marin showed off his badge and entered the hall, confirming that Colin was now in the Church of Love.

So the second short door opened in front of the door of the Church of Love, and with a confession to the members of the Mage Tower who had come to intercept him, Marin entered the hospital room and met old Ferrero.

The latter was examining Colin's body with the doctors of the Church of Love.

Marin directly gave all the information he had to Ferrero Sr.: "Colin is different from those kids. ”

"You mean you don't have this weird thing in your head?" Old Ferrero took out a thin slice from his pocket: "What is this." ”

He didn't know it, but Marin did: "Chips, existing alchemy and engineering can't replicate it, old Ferrero now our problem is to identify the children of the first and second phases, we need to find all the children, we may not be able to save them, but at least we can help these children, so that they can live with dignity to the end." ”

"Can't we save them?"

"Unless someone is willing to help them." Marin told Ferrero the Elder about the pair of wizards.

This information silenced the old elf for a moment, and then he said that he wanted to look at the child next door.

Marlin nodded, indicating that he would go to him after talking to Colin.

Seeing off old Ferrero, Marin greeted Colin who was sitting on the bed.

"Colin, what are you frustrating, you should have heard what I said to old Ferrero just now, as long as you and Margaret truly love each other, I can make you well."

"No, Marlin, I won't let Margaret die for me, she's done enough for me, I can ask her to save me with her life." Colin shook his head: "Although I want to survive too, but ...... I can't let Margaret die for me. ”

"Margaret doesn't think so, she doesn't hesitate to fight her mothers in order to be with you, Colin, you haven't heard Margaret's heart, you made such a choice for her, do you love her?" Marin looked at Colin: "What's more, as long as you can become a high-level church member, you can have a long lifespan, you share your life with Margaret, and even if you return it to her when the time comes, isn't it good to do this." ”

Marlin looked at Colin, but his brother still shook his head: "Marlin, I'm just a replicant. ”

"You're not a replicant."

"That's what I said of the chaotic one."

"Didn't he say the same thing, in his timeline, he didn't get together with Margaret, and similarly, in his timeline, Colin Dawn didn't choose a male and female genetic pairing to make him when he made the test subject."

Marin had heard old Ferrero say about that chaos, so when Colin said this, Marin immediately refuted him.

Then, in Colin's confusion, Marin explained Colin's birth to him in detail: "You are a child of male and female genes, and although it is artificial, you are different from those children. ”

"But is there anything wrong with that?"

"Yes, in fact, you are a life, just like those children." Marin looked at his senior brother: "You and those children are all fresh lives, Colin, you are Colin Katov, just like a fake, unique Colin." ”

Colin, who was sitting on the hospital bed, finally smiled: "Thank you. ”

Coincidentally, at this time, Margaret appeared at the door, and since Madame Colin came, Marlin also gave up the space to the two of them, and then went out to find Old Ferrero.

The old elf is easy to findβ€”it's on the other side of the hallway.

Marin walked over and found the old elf watching at the door.

Marin stood beside him and found the young girl in the hospital bed being fed by a teenager.

Don't know what to say?

Marin thought about it for a moment and came to this conclusion.

And then it felt taken for granted - yes, unlike Colin and Margaret, Colin and Margaret were adults, and they were just children.

Marin didn't know if the boy would be willing to sacrifice for the sake of the girl in the hospital bed, because there was no turning back from the bow, and the price paid by the other party in order to be able to let one side go down was too high.

So...... "Let me say it." After saying this, Old Ferrero walked towards the two children, and because of Old Ferrero's accidental intrusion, he and she both looked at Old Ferrero.

Marin stood by and watched.
