Chapter 451: Goodbye! [Up]
Three months later, the University of Science and Technology.
The weather has become cold, the first snow since the beginning of winter has just fallen, Li Tomb is still wearing the windbreaker, busy in the laboratory, he has almost learned the theory of advanced physics, and the recent research has come to an end for the time being, he is standing in the laboratory, looking at the somewhat empty laboratory, dealing with the hand tail of some research.
The two archetypes of Serena and Changfeng are no longer there, and Li Tomb has given them the freedom they promised, of course, they have signed a spiritual contract in advance, and these two people need to do something for him.
However, that is just a small foreshadowing, and it is not known whether it will play a role for the time being. He stopped his busyness and made sure that the data in the laboratory had been basically deleted and nothing would be left behind, so he walked to the experimental table again, opened Tianxun, and contacted the red mutant parrot in the distance.
"King, the gravity laboratory is now on the right track, as you think, Mu Chenggong and the others have sent a lot of shadows, I have already marked all the people, waiting for you to deal with them."
"In addition, according to your plan, the First Fleet has secretly built a base in the galaxy, and we have also made some new breakthroughs in the construction technology of the Neutron Battlestar. In addition, the negotiations between the Federation and the Empire have been carried out for the second time, and they have not yet been negotiated. β
"There are other means, we have already contacted the group of Qingturen, and there is also news from the general's side, they seem to have taken action recently, and they want us to cooperate......"
The Mueller Federation, as well as the plan of Li Tomb, many questions were piled up, and Li Tomb dealt with them one by one, and then closed the Tianxun and left the laboratory.
tightened the trench coat on his body. It's not that he feels cold, but he doesn't want the snowflakes to drift into his collar, Li Tomb looked at the sky, it was a cloudy day again, but it should be almost clear after the snow.
"Tomb of Lee."
Roommate Zhang Shan seemed to have been waiting outside for a while when he saw Li Tomb coming out. He stomped his foot and leaned over with a smile, "To the library?" β
Li Tomb shook his head, "Is there something wrong?" β
"I didn't ...... It's the second child who said they would get together in the evening, so I just wanted to ask, do you have time at night? β
Zhang Shan stuttered a little, he didn't know why, but he felt that the majesty on Li Tomb's body was even worse, which made him sincerely a little nervous.
"At night? It seems that there is no time. β
Li Tomb looked up. Looking at the sky, he said lightly.
Zhang Shan followed his gaze and was suddenly startled, a beautifully shaped spaceship in the sky was rapidly approaching.
"It's a Su-20 private custom spacecraft, a private spacecraft within a private spacecraft. I don't know which big guy is coming......"
Zhang Shan said with an envious face, but before he finished speaking, he saw the spaceship slowly falling from the sky, stopping not far from them, and the anti-gravity engine landed smoothly. Not even the snowflakes on the ground were lifted, and the hatch opened. A figure stepped out.
"It's Baron Lierenlong. I've seen him on the news......"
Zhang Shan became a little excited and spoke incoherently, "He seems to be walking towards us." Let's get out of the way, this kind of big guy, moody ......"
"He's coming for me, so. I won't go to the evening party. β
Li Tomb smiled, nodded at Zhang Shan, and watched Lie Renlong come over.
"Let's go. Your Excellency, Lord Duke wants to see you. β
Lie Renlong looked at Li Tomb coldly and stretched out his hand to invite.
"Hmm. Looks like your injuries are doing well. β
Li Tomb nodded. Ignoring Lie Renlong's face that instantly turned iron-blue, he walked towards the spaceship, Zhang Shan stood stupidly in place, although he knew that the identity of Li Tomb was probably not simple, but he still didn't expect that this roommate would be a nobleman.
The spaceship took off slowly, making a wonderful arc towards the depths of the sky.
Three days later, Tomb Lee's spaceship landed on Caterina, the capital of the Three Lakes Star Zone, where Duke Caterina's ducal palace was located.
"Wait a minute, you'd better be mindful of your behavior."
Before entering the Duke's Palace, Lierenlong reminded in a low voice, worried that the country nobleman Li Tomb would be rude in front of Duke Caterina.
Li Tomb ignored him, and as he walked towards the Duke's Palace, he pondered why this Duke of Caterina wanted to see him.
There were three princes and eight dukes in the entire Sujin Republic, and these eleven people made up the situation in the Sujin Republic. If it is said that among the three kings and eight dukes, the most familiar to the world is undoubtedly this Duchess of Caterina.
First of all, the number of female nobles among the nobility is small, and there are only a few people who can become dukes in the entire universe. Secondly, the duchess herself is not a member of the Sujin Republic, but a noble daughter with the royal blood of the Xilin Empire, and her father is Hastings, the prince of the Xilin Empire.
Originally, with the status obtained by Hastings in the Second World War, it was completely possible for Caterina to become the queen of the Xilin Empire after the war, but the duchess fell in love with Su Shenzhi during the war, betrayed her homeland for love, and even abandoned everything.
If it weren't for the fact that Caterina later became a duke, and Su Shenzhi also became the prince of the Sujin Republic, then Caterina would definitely be spurned by the world, and would not have become a legendary love in the world's mouth as it is now.
The story of Katerina and Su Shenzhi has been put on the screen many times in ASEAN, known as the world's first love fairy tale, and is envied by the world. Of course, on the side of the Xilin Empire, even now Katarina is an absolute taboo, and it is even said that the Xilin Empire has not stopped the assassination of Katerina and Su Shenzhi until now.
These were all things that Li Tomb had learned before coming to the Sujin Republic, and before that, his only impression of the duchess was the good wine produced by the Queen Catalina Winery of the wine named after her.
Lierenlong didn't know why the Duke summoned the tomb of Li, in his opinion, this was a completely incomprehensible act, a country nobleman, even if something happened on the side of the Western Covenant, it was definitely not worth Catalina's condescension to receive the tomb of Li.
But soon he knew the reason, which made him relieved and a little gloating.
Lee's meeting with the Duchess Caterina, who is more beautiful and graceful than the image in any film. Noble, but also obviously proud.
The meeting with Li Tomb only took a minute, and she said three words, without giving Li Tomb a chance to object.
The first sentence is that I want all of your ancient civilization inheritance.
The second sentence is that I will support you in the Gene Lock program.
As for the third sentence, it's okay, you can go.
Domineering, arrogant. This was the whole impression that Caterina had left on the tomb of Lee, but he didn't say anything, just nodded, knowing that he had no right to object.
At least within ASEAN, there are not many people who can oppose Katarina, who did not become the queen of the Sirin Empire as Hastings had envisioned, but because of her father, her husband, and herself. In ASEAN, and even in Western York, Katerina is a real big man to be feared by the aristocracy.
The current Li Tomb, not to mention confronting a duke, even an earl can make him bow his head, so he can only nod, anyway, he has already had such a guess before.
The viscount of a small country is obviously not worthy of the attention of the duke of the Sujin Republic. The only possibility is a group of ancient civilization inheritances that he has shown on the Western side, nothing more.
But that's fine. He didn't want to get Catalina's weight or anything like that, people still have to rely on themselves, and it was enough for him to catch Caterina's line and enter the gene lock program in Katarina's name.
This had fulfilled the main purpose of his choice of this place in advance, and had given him a head start for his future plans, and that would be enough. As for the inheritance of those ancient civilizations that have been paid.
Maybe for other nobles, it was a painful payment, but for him, what was it. It's just a pity, he thought he could meet that person.
With a hint of regret. Li Tomb left the Duke's Palace under the leadership of Lie Renlong, and Caterina had no intention of keeping him as a guest, but from Lie Renlong's mouth, he knew that Li Tomb would stay on this planet for a few days, and there would be a banquet in a few days, and someone would come to receive him.
When the time comes, he will hand over the inheritance of the ancient civilization that Caterina wants, and then someone will take him to the main base of the Gene Lock Project, giving him the opportunity that Caterina promised.
"The room has been arranged for you. The driver will give you a drop-off. In addition, this is not a smaller place than yours, don't mess around, otherwise you will offend people, and you don't even know what's going on. β
Before sending Li Tomb to the car, Lie Renlong reminded with a sneer. Naturally, he didn't have good intentions, he just wanted to humiliate Li Tomb, and this method was extremely naΓ―ve.
But Li Tomb didn't care, because his eyes noticed the car that stopped at the gate of the manor, to be exact, the person who walked down from the car, a woman, a beautiful woman, who made him somewhat familiar.
Lie Renlong noticed Li Tomb's gaze, looked over it, and immediately sneered, "Pay attention to your gaze." That's not something you can get your hands on. Miss Anne, the Duke Lord's favorite daughter. β
"Annie."
Li Tomb sighed in a low voice, a trace of remembrance flashed in his eyes, and it disappeared in a flash, not giving Lie Renlong a chance to catch the fluctuations in his heart, nodded indifferently, and sat in the car, "Let's drive." β
The car started slowly, leaving everything in the rearview mirror, Li Tomb did not look back, just quietly looked at the world in the rearview mirror, the woman, smiling lightly, as before, a little less melancholy and cautious, a little more bright smile, was carrying a skirt into the manor.
Li Tomb even saw Caterina smiling and came out to pick her up, while Lierenlong stood by with a hint of courtesy, obviously in the heart of Caterina, the duchess, this righteous daughter was much more important than him, the viscount.
But these are not important, a more important question arises in Li Tomb's heart, why. Why did Xia Yun'er, who is also an earthling, become the righteous daughter of Duke Qinzhuang, and Anne became the righteous daughter of Duke Caterina.
If Qin Zhuang is on the side, it can also be said that Xia Yun'er is superb, but what about Caterina's side? Li Tomb doesn't think that for these nobles who have thousands of years of life, a righteous daughter is really important, not to mention that the fate trajectories of these two people are obviously very different, but in the end, they have the same path, which seems to be far from being a coincidence of fate that can be described.
