Nirvana

A ravine in the deep mountains, a dense crystal ore cluster, a bewildered morning star, and a frolicking mother and son on the side. The morning star, which was originally in high spirits, is now drooping like an eggplant after autumn. Turning his head to look at the mother and son of the hairy bear who were frolicking like no one else, Morningstar was angry in his heart, but thinking about the thick limbs of the hairy bear, it was better to forget it.

When the hairy bear came to the mine with the morning star, he ignored the money lover again, and instead took the little hairy bear to the side to play. Morningstar's original assumption was that hairy bears could find natural high-quality crystals, so they checked them one by one. After experiencing disappointment, disappointment, and disappointment, Morningstar completely examined the entire crystal ore cluster, and without exception, it was the kind of defective product with impurities visible to the naked eye.

Is it really such a coincidence? The only high-quality crystal in the entire crystal ore cluster was found by a hairy bear? Morningstar isn't one to believe in coincidences, but this experience has made him a little skeptical. Rubbing his hair, the bewildered Morning Star turned his head to look at the mother and son who had stopped playing, and the two guys were lying in front of a piece of crystal, waving their paws at the crystal in front of them.

This strange behavior attracted Morning Star, who quietly walked over to the woolly bear and watched with interest.

The hairy bear who was educating the child glanced back at Morning Star, and made a muttering sound in his mouth, and the little hairy bear on the side also turned his head to look at Morning Star and responded. Morning Star looked at the mother and son who were communicating, and inexplicably understood something. It seems that he has become a negative teaching material? "Kid, you have to practice hard, don't be as stupid as this creature!" "Okay mom, I'll definitely work hard!"

Shaking his head vigorously, Morningstar shook the ridiculous idea out of his head. After re-observing, I was shocked to find that the crystal in front of the mother and son of the hairy bear was quickly purified at a speed visible to the naked eye! As the mother and son waved their chubby paws, the crystal that was originally full of impurities surrounded the light blue mist, and the mist, the crystal was pure!

……

After the initial ecstasy, the thoughtful Morning Star was now very calm, so calm that both the mother and son of the hairy bear felt the change in his aura, and both turned their heads to look at the Morning Star suspiciously. In this short period of time, Morning Star thought a lot, and he thought about what this ability of the hairy bear mother and child would bring to himself, what it would bring to humans, and what it would bring to themselves. In the course of interstellar voyages, human beings come into contact with many unknown creatures, and any creature that can satisfy human desires will be wiped out without exception. The fleshy and delicious will be eaten, the cowardly will be enslaved, the aggressive will be strangled, and even intelligent life will not escape the doom. Whether it's the Republic, the Empire, or the Union's underground black market, there is a human trafficking trade. Once the special abilities of the mother and son are known, then their fate is not only to become guinea pigs in the laboratory, but to be controlled day and night purification crystals until they run out of vitality and die. What's even more terrifying is that once a large number of high-quality crystals are produced, the growth rate of military power can leave others far behind, and the power that loses balance and restraint will inevitably lead to war. Today's human society, although not perfect, but because of the equal strength and three-legged, but also relatively stable, once either side gets this kind of power, the balance is bound to be broken, under the impetus of politicians and war maniacs, civil war is inevitable. The Morning Star is not a virgin, but he knows exactly what war can bringβ€”the benefit of the few, the pain of the many.

As if sensing Morningstar's low and complicated mood, the hairy bear rubbed Morningstar with his big head. Morningstar smiled wryly, stroked the fluff on the fur on the bear's neck, and fell into deep thought again.

The development of the Alpha 137 has already begun, and with the capabilities of Morningstar, it is impossible to stop it in any way. Sooner or later, the woolly bear will be discovered by humans, and it will undoubtedly be a catastrophe for this cute mother and son. Take them away? This is not possible, Morningstar is just a security guard for the expedition team. Righteous annihilation? How to get your hands on it.

The little furry bear walked up to Morningstar and rubbed his head against Morningstar's leg, his pitiful eyes revealing begging. Morning Star was taken aback when he saw it, and hurriedly looked back at the hairy bear, only to see that the hairy bear also looked at him with complicated eyes, with guardedness, puzzlement, and even a little hostility in his eyes. Morning Star only felt a chill down his spine, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. Can the mother and son of the hairy bear read their own thoughts? The killing intent that flashed away just now was captured by this magical creature? If so, they should be able to understand what they are thinking.

Morningstar calmed down again, reaching out to touch the hairy bear's head again, but the hairy bear stepped back slightly, dodging Morningstar's hand. The little woolly bear saw his mother's movements, but he did not move away from Morning Star, and rubbed Morning Star's leg again, showing affection. Morningstar crouched down and scratched the bear's neck. Turning his head and trying to communicate with the woolly bear: "If you can understand what I think, you should be able to understand why." This ability of yours, if it is discovered by others, you and the little hairy bear will be in danger......" Looking at the hairy bear's seemingly understandable eyes, Morningstar stretched out his right hand and simulated the action of the hairy bear purifying the crystal on the crystal on the side.

The cute furry bear seemed to misinterpret Morningstar's thoughts, stretched out its large paws, and purified another crystal in an instant.

"You're not allowed to do this!" Morningstar waved his hand and knocked on the hairy bear's head and roared!

As if sensing Morning Star's anger, the furry bear turned his head and glared at Morning Star, stretched out his fat paw to knock Morning Star back once, but looked at Morning Star's fragile body, looked at his strong paws, and immediately put it down, making a "hum" sound in his mouth to express his dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Morningstar knew that the hairy bear felt the friendly signal he had released, and although he couldn't clearly understand what he was trying to say, at least there was no hostility. As long as you can communicate, you are not afraid that this big guy will not understand himself. So, this man and beast began a two-hour tug-of-war, and finally, after paying the "price" of half of the crystals being purified, the hairy bear finally understood Morning Star's idea - his purification ability could not be discovered by others.

Morningstar was tired, really tired, and the communication with the furry bear was really exhausting his mental strength. Although the process was tedious and painful, the end result was satisfying to Morningstar. The furry bear was also tired, it was now a little hated for not being able to understand Morningstar's thoughts earlier, although the transformation crystal was its innate ability, but using it so frequently really hollowed out its body. Turning around, the woolly bear bit down on a piece of crystal, and swallowed it with a rattle. After eating, the woolly bear lay quietly on the ground, drooping its eyelids and drowsy.

Morningstar lay on his back on the ground, his head resting on the tail that the woolly bear had placed next to his belly, and he smirked. Today, he has a very special sense of accomplishment, and it seems that he has one more way out in the future, and one day he is tired of fighting, and he should be able to become a botanist and botanist like La Nina.

When the little bear saw that Morning Star had reconciled with his mother, he got under the bear's neck and fell asleep.

"Wonderful! It's wonderful! I should thank you, Morningstar! You've shown us such a great show! What's the name? How about people and dogs? Just as Morning Star was relaxed and drowsy, a discordant voice came to mind from behind him. You don't have to open your eyes, Nick's slightly scheming voice is clearly recognizable. Morningstar quickly got up and looked in the direction from which the voice came, only to see Ronald with his little henchman, standing on a rock not far away, looking at him maliciously.

The little bear leaked half of his head from under his mother's neck, and looked at the two people who had just appeared. Morning Star knew that the hairy bear had fallen into a deep sleep due to excessive consumption, and the little hairy bear's combat power was not much stronger than a few big mice, and in the face of two ill-intentioned guys, all the pressure could only be borne by himself. Silently taking off the weapon and shield behind his back, Morningstar didn't answer Nick, his eyes were fixed on Ronald.

The condescending Ronald did not make any more disguises, and the cold killing aura was released, even if it was more than ten meters away, Morning Star could still feel it clearly. The inference was correct, and Morningstar confirmed his thoughts, this man was not a student, and it was impossible to pretend to be that kind of long-standing momentum.

"You're smart, Morningstar! If you take off your firearm, you're now a dead body. Ronald jumped off the rock, drew the short knife at his waist, jumped seven or eight meters away, and slashed from top to bottom.

Morningstar raised his shield horizontally to meet Ronald's attack, only to feel a huge force coming from his arm, and he almost fell to his knees. Ronald landed a kick, spun his body, and kicked Morningstar to the ankle with a whip kick to knock his rival down. Morningstar squatted down, moved his shield sideways, blocked Ronald's kicking right foot, jumped a few meters with his strength, and slashed horizontally in front of his chest, assuming a defensive stance.

Ronald didn't continue to attack, but walked left and right in place, two short knives striking each other with a crisp buzzing sound. Suddenly stopped, raised his hand with a short knife to the Morning Star, and said sharply, "You are hateful, Morning Star! From the first time I saw you, I knew you were pretending, pretending to be cynical, pretending that you didn't care, pretending that you didn't know anything. But I can tell, you know, you know everything! You hypocrite! ”

Morning Star put away his defensive stance, his hands naturally drooped, and he took a few steps to the left, intentionally or unintentionally, and replied, "Each other, Ronald!" ”

"You're right, it's true that each other is each other, but my disguise is better than yours, and it can be said that there are no flaws, but it's all because of this idiot! Let me be exposed, are you right? Ronald pointed back, but Nick behind him was trembling with fright, and the gun in his hand almost fell to the ground.

"Ronald, I thought you were a smart person, but I didn't expect you to disappoint me so much. You think that the talkative Nick is your flaw, but I have to complain about this good actor who plays in his true colors. Your real flaw is Dante, well, he's locking his sniper rifle at my head right now. Morningstar replied with a flick of his wrist and a gentle touch of his head with the back of his knife.

Ronald was slightly stunned when he heard Morning Star's answer, and then a smile appeared on his face, and he gave Morning Star a thumbs up and said, "It's great, it's really great, it's really a flaw." Morningstar, I'm a little reluctant to kill you right now! ”

"Huh? It's not bad, I reacted so quickly, I took back my words, not so disappointed. So, how about answering me a question? Morningstar gave Ronald a smile in return.

"Say!"

"What is the reason for your murderous intent towards me? Just because I found your disguise, it doesn't pose a threat to you, and you have no reason to do it. Morningstar asked the most doubtful place in his heart, there was no reason for life and death between him and Ronald, even if Ronald knew that he had doubts about his identity, but Morningstar had no evidence, it was really unreasonable to kill the killer so badly.

"It's unfortunate that you asked anyway. Wouldn't it hurt your self-esteem if you were just an added bonus to our mission? Ronald pretended to pat his forehead, a sad expression on his face.

"I want to hear about it."

"Initially, we were just ordered by the military to come on a secret mission on Alpha-137 under false identities. But I don't know how our employers found out about us and approached us and asked us to find an opportunity to kill you or cripple you, but of course the price will be slightly different. But these are not the key, you won't not understand, how wonderful your big play is today, right? Do you know what this thing represents? Wealth, power, women, with it, you have it all! But you idiot, idiot! You didn't even realize it, and you told it not to use that ability! So, you have to die, you have to die! Ronald became more and more excited, and in the end he could not control his emotions and yelled.

Having learned from Ronald that someone had hired a murderer to assassinate him, Morningstar had already guessed who the employer was. Facing Ronald, who was close to rage, Morning Star said lightly: "Ronald, there is a wise saying in our Republic called - bad people die of talking too much, you really should just let Dante shoot me!" After that, Morning Star's originally plain aura suddenly became cold, and it was like a different person in an instant, and even Ronald's long-defeated aura was suppressed by Morning Star.

Ronald was shocked to see this, and in this moment he understood that he had never seen through the morning star. The body quickly retreated, two short knives blocked in front of him, and shouted in his mouth: "Dante, shoot ......!" ”

Morningstar's movements were so fast that before Ronald could finish his words, he had already separated. Although fast, it was not faster than the bullet that was fired at him, and the movement of his body allowed Morningstar's to avoid being shot in the head, but not completely avoiding this shot, Dante shot a bullet from the sniper rifle and hit Morningstar's left shoulder, the huge energy carried by the bullet tore the flesh and skin, shattered the bones, and took away Morningstar's shield-holding left arm.

After being decapitated with one blow, Morning Star was pulled by a huge force and flew out more than ten meters away, and the huge pain in leaving his left arm almost made Morning Star faint. Relying on his strong mental power, Morning Star endured the pain, adjusted his body the moment he landed, and used the trick he was best at in the direction where the gunfire came. A few vague afterimages flashed away, and the long knife in his hand had been inserted into Dante's back, nailing him to the tree.

Shocked, Dante's face was full of disbelief, and although he endured the pain of the long knife penetrating his body, he forgot to shout, and tried his best to turn his head, but he couldn't. He asked angrily, "Who are you...... How do you use Shadow Step...... Are you an agent of the Republic! No, it's impossible for an agent to use it 7 times in a row, you ...... Who is ......?"

Morningstar held down the hilt of the knife, trying to keep himself from falling, spat out the blood in his mouth, pulled the long knife horizontally, shredded Dante's heart, and said coldly, "The frog at the bottom of the well!" ”

Dante, whose breath was exhausted, opened his eyes angrily, and there was still disbelief in his eyes, the ordinary student in this information could be the heir of that person.

Morningstar, who had eliminated Dante, pulled out his long knife and walked back to Nick, who was already stunned, with all his strength. It's not that Nick doesn't want to run, Ronald's head that flew out fell between his arms as if it had been calculated, directly scaring him out, and his legs seemed to be unconscious, and he couldn't move half a minute no matter what.

"Hey, you know what you're supposed to say!" Morningstar, who had lost an arm, was covered in blood and stood in front of Nick like a killing god, waking up Nick in a daze with a soft call.

"Spare my life, spare my life, I don't want to die! Leave me alone! Nick, who came back to his senses, just glanced at it and didn't dare to look up again, and begged for mercy with a trembling voice.

Morningstar looked at his heart beating slower and slower from his broken shoulder, and felt as if his life was coming to an end on the planet he wanted. Looking not far away, his arm was lying quietly on the ground, and the personal terminal on his wrist was still flashing green, which should be able to be recorded, Morning Star thought. Sensing that time was running out, Morningstar raised his long knife, picked up Nick's chin, and said weakly: "Mission, what is the secret mission!" Tell me, and I won't kill you! ”

Nick woke up suddenly, feeling that he had grasped the life-saving straw, trembling all over, and hurriedly replied: "Queen, Queen of Insects, they say there is a Queen of Insects!" ”

Getting the answer he wanted, Morningstar stabbed Nick in the heart with a long knife as soon as he sent it to his arm. Nick looked at Morningstar in disbelief, his eyes full of puzzlement, as if he was questioning Morningstar why he broke his promise.

"I'm sorry I lied to you."

Draw the knife and slash horizontally. Morningstar used his last strength to confirm Nick's death, his body fell down, looking at the still unconscious hairy bear and the little hairy bear who showed half of his head to witness the whole battle, and said weakly: "Cherish, I can't protect you anymore!" ”

Darkness, endless darkness, is this what death feels like......
