Volume 1 The Last Garden of Eden 00046 The Heart of Gaia and Prometheus
"Yes, she is the First Wage King, Lemidia, the Empress whom I have sworn to submit and whom I have guarded for the rest of my life!" Chenguang said very seriously, his eyes were deep and full of reverence.
Lin Sen's surprise quickly faded as memories began to intertwine, and he remembered someone.
It was a little girl, she always liked to put on Lin Sen's mother's armor, drag a long cloak, let Lin Sen and Lin Xue swear to her to surrender, and then laboriously held the sword and tapped it on Lin Sen's shoulders.
This kind of house-style game, only Lin Sen will accompany her to toss, every time it is time to take the oath, Lin Xue will do it as another person and rush out and shout: "I want to defeat you!" Despot! Accept the sanctions! β
It's not a self-inflicted play, but a children's version of history.
Lin Sen couldn't remember the girl's appearance clearly.
But Lin Sen remembers that every time she asked why she liked a tyrant, she always said angrily and seriously: "What tyrant would give his life for his people and not give in?" It must be the history of the victors who wrote nonsense! She is my hero, the great First Salary King, the First Empress! β
Yes, the first empress in the new era of human civilization, the first dynasty, the first to fight for the people, the first to fall, and then the blood to be spilled......
"You adore her too, don't you?" Chen Guang looked at Lin Sen with bad intentions, Fang Cai's reverence and seriousness only existed for three seconds, and now he was back to his unserious normal.
Lin Sen shrugged, noncommittal.
"Probably."
"Ouch, this is the most inhuman talk, what to see! Whatever! Probably! I hate these words the most! Worship is worship, I'm the only one here, are you still ashamed? The uncle rolled his eyes, as if he was greatly stimulated.
"You have obsessive-compulsive disorder, huh?" Lin Sen glanced at him.
"You're from Scorpious, aren't you?" The uncle took a step back with his chin propped up.
Lin Sen sighed, not wanting to continue the topic.
"Didn't you say you took me on a tour, you digressed uncle!"
"It's called Brother Chen!" Chenguang corrected it.
"Okay, Brother Chen, can you continue to visit?"
Hey, hey, the uncle was proud, he pointed to the second mural and said: "Here are the thirteen knights who kneel and swear allegiance, and I won't introduce the other twelve one by one, but I must say two more words about this thirteenth traitor!" It was this bastard who betrayed the Great Empress, who opened the gates of the city and brought about the slaughter of the city in exchange for the so-called peace and surrender! This bastard was later made a duke by the Third Salary King, but he still had a bit of a conscience, and on the day he swore that he suddenly killed the Third Salary King who caused the slaughter of the city, and then he was also hacked to death by the Random Sword, but human loyalty is only once, and he will not be forgiven for repentance. β
This history is the first time Lin Sen has heard of it, because in the "Official History of the Old Era", the third salary king died of illness, and the traitor was also written as a great messenger of peace, and finally died on the road to peace.
And the first salary king was written as a tyrant who was unwilling to abandon the crown, could not defend it, and even slaughtered his people after the defeat.
History......
Lin Sen shook his head with a disdainful smile.
"Now, this painting depicts the great Empress Lemidia meeting with the elders of Kui before the 'Sacrifice of Death', and the elders gave them the Heart of Gaia! This is the only mural that tells the story! The uncle raised his hand and carefully brushed the dust off the mural.
Lin Sen stared at the genderless humanoid in the painting, which was exactly the same as the Kui he had seen before.
But where is that collapsed world? How is Sila doing now? β¦β¦ Lin Sen thought for a while and gave up, and it seemed that this experience could only be clarified when he found Amy.
However, "Heart of Gaia? "And what?
It's another secret that has never been recorded in history.
Lin Sen frowned and asked, "Brother Chen, what is Gaia's heart?" β
Chenguang shook his head, and he pouted: "Hey, my last grave keeper didn't tell me the detailed story about the heart of Gaia, and I was also fun-loving, so I didn't ask." β
"Huh?" Lin Sen was speechless, this is too hasty, this is very important historical information, and he was cut off by a fun-loving uncle......
"Hey, hey, hey!" The uncle scratched his head a little embarrassed, but he immediately made up like a child: "Well, but I know what the Empress did with it later!" It is because of this incident that the first salary king will be attacked on his back and finally destroyed......"
"Huh?!" Lin Sen was shocked and smelled the smell of the big secret.
"Follow me." Chenguang took Lin Sen and continued to walk up the stairs to a mural at the top of the main hall, which was the middle of the seven murals.
The painting depicts Lemidia kneeling in armor in front of a man, and his pious posture is as peaceful and pure, loyal and mad as depicted in the stone carvings in the courtyard!
After removing Lemidia's body, Lin Sen noticed that the previous Gaia Heart was placed on the chest of a naked man, and when Lin Sen looked up carefully, he found that the other half of this man's face was much softer than the right side, that feeling.
"It's like a woman's ......" Wu Huan in her heart suddenly said, she has also been listening to these stories, and now she can't help but say it.
Lin Sen agreed more, who is this person? Why would the empress of a dynasty offer him the seemingly precious Heart of Gaia, and bow down to him?
At this time, I listened to Chenguang's improper explanation.
"Dangdang, dang! Now it's up to me to introduce! This is the legendary 'Prometheus!' (1), that is, the first great being to spread the fire of human civilization on this planet! β
Although Chenguang's explanation was a bit of a joke, Lin Sen was shocked, and the whole person was stunned.
He's Prometheus!?
The only interstellar traveler on the Mothership Origin, which carries the continuation of human civilization?
In history, he was given eternal life and was tasked with ushering in a new era for mankind.
However......
Eternal life...... Looks good......
In fact......
It's a curse, right?
Lin Sen suddenly remembered something, realized something, and he touched his heart.
Wu Huan also thought of something, she was shocked, this ...... Could it be that Dr. Hoxton said?
The last hope of mankind!
Lin Sen, is it the new "Prometheus"!?
Wrong...... No, it won't!
This concept was quickly denied by Lin Sen, and now the human race is thriving on Gaia, although the xenos temporarily occupy the world outside the dome, it does not mean that the human race will choose to flee again, the xenomorph is not an invincible existence, and if the human race can "defeat" Kui, it will naturally clean up the xenomorphs.
And he saw the shadow of "Cain" (2) in this "Prometheus", which made Lin Sen shudder.
Therefore, Lin Sen did not believe that he would become any Prometheus, and he would not allow himself to become that kind of lonely existence.
After a long silence, Lin Sen asked with a smile, "Then where did this 'Prometheus' go later?" β
Chenguang was stuck, he thought about it, scratched his head, and seemed to be thinking seriously.
Lin Sen saw through it and teased: "Because I love to play, I didn't listen carefully, didn't I, uncle?" β
The uncle's face turned red and he snorted.
"It's called Brother Chen!"
"Alright, Brother Chen, go on, there are still three murals!" Lin Sen said that he was about to walk down.
However, Chenguang grabbed him and said, "Look back at the three murals, you come in with me first, you have to see something here." β
"Huh? Oh......" Lin Sen was confused, turned around and followed Chenguang around the mural and followed the side door to the apse.
As soon as you enter the apse, you will be greeted by an eerie cold, but fortunately there are many colored windows here, and the sunlight falling into the cold air is still a bit beautiful.
Where is this? It can't be to pay homage to the corpse of the First Salary King, right?
Lin Sen has really seen enough corpses in the past few days, so he is a little sick to his stomach.
"Come on, come on, don't be in a daze there, come here." Chenguang had already walked to the end, and sure enough, he was standing in front of a coffin.
Lin Sen grinned, a little reluctant to go over, but seeing Chenguang's anxious appearance, he was a little curious.
Just look at it, there are not many of them.
It's all a little numb......
As a result, when he got closer, Lin Sen found that he was wrong.
It was indeed a coffin, but it was an empty coffin, and the pillows were placed here, and the sides were still tinged with a strange sheen.
"What is this?" Lin Sen had never seen anything like this.
"Good stuff!" Chen Guang said and suddenly raised his hand to give Lin Sen an injection in the neck.
The movements are lightning fast and very skillful.
Lin Sen was startled, and plotted against me again!
Then his body was weak, except that he was still quite conscious, and the whole person fell into Chenguang's arms.
"Don't be afraid, believe in you Brother Chen, I won't harm you!"
With his previous experience, Lin Sen naturally believes it, but can't you discuss it with me properly?
Lin Sen wanted to speak, but the entire assembly line that spoke out went on strike.
After carefully putting Lin Sen into the coffin, Chen Guang suddenly had a bitter face and howled.
"Brother! Don't worry, Big Brother will definitely avenge you! Rest in peace! β
As he spoke, he raised his hand to close Lin Sen's eyes.
Lin Sen's eyes widened, as if he was looking at a fool!
Chenguang was a little embarrassed.
Is my acting skills not good enough? I pondered for a while.
This time, the lines were changed!
"Son! You just sleep well, Dad will go back and burn a daughter-in-law for you, save you from being lonely below! β¦β¦ cough cough cough ......"
Lin Sen almost "cheated the corpse" when he heard this, but his body couldn't move, and he could only twitch the corners of his mouth and chant silently: "Calm down...... Calm down......" and then closed his eyes in agreement.
It's not that I want to cooperate.
But I really don't want to hear this crazy guy say anything earth-shattering, so let's play with him.
After completing Lin Sen's "burial", Chenguang's playfulness was also satisfied, he covered the "coffin lid", and then patted it and said, "Sleep well, I'll call you tomorrow morning." β
Tomorrow? Isn't it, is there such hospitality? There's no empty bed, you have to let me sleep in a coffin! If Lin Sen could speak, he would definitely be stoned to death by a series of rhetorical questions!
