“……”

Regarding Qin Mo's jokes, Corax was very bland.

He didn't even bother to show the prevarication and perfunctory attitude at the beginning.

This is Qin Mo's perspective.

But from Colax's point of view, he didn't think there was anything good about this joke, he didn't care.

But he was eager to hear the man in front of him continue, because it involved one of the purposes for which he had come here.

That is to find out what those soldiers call the liberator, the star lord, the great man, what is the difference between this guy and his father.

Will this man be nicer to humanity before it reaches the end of its destruction?

Just like every time a worker on the salvation star is about to die and is in a dying state, other workers will gather to comfort the family of the person who is about to die, and take out the food they have saved so that the dead can eat more before they wither......

If Qin Mo knew about Corax's mental activity at this time, he would be surprised, and then immediately give up the temptation.

He was also testing whether Corax remembered the past, whether Corax really retained a trace of humanity after accepting the essence of subspace, as his actions demonstrated, even if it was just a fragment of what Sokhornono called "enemy of the oppressor".

Because this shows that Corax still has the hope of completely standing on the side of humanity and contributing his powerful power.

What appears to be a casual conversation is actually a wrestling battle on the level of psychological reconnaissance, full of temptations.

Qin Mo couldn't help but be tempted, because he didn't know what the current situation was in Corax.

This is Qin Mo's thoughts and motives at this moment.

Looking at Corax again, his motive for testing Qin Mo was...... I don't know what the motive is.

Corax had even dissected his own psyche, feeling that his help to the Golden Expeditionary Fleet, and his help and concern for humanity, stemmed from the habitual inertia of his habits before he completely liberated himself from his essence.

It's like a walking corpse that survives hell, crawls out of the grave, and continues to exist according to its habits.

This "walking dead" fought for humanity during his lifetime, so he will habitually continue his duties.

And the reason why Corax knows so well about himself is because he knows that he is no longer human at all, and he can no longer be human.

If he didn't use the head in his hand to communicate in a similar way of speaking, and if he didn't recall the language in his ancient memory while recalling the way he spoke, he wouldn't be able to say even half a sentence to the person in front of him, he had completely changed.

"Stop showing off your humanity to me."

After a long silence, Corax suddenly spoke.

Then there is a question.

"It's amazing how a man as human as you can work with my father."

"It's like...... I...... Target...... As the clone of Corax said, you actually worked with my creator, and you compromised with the Empire......"

"From your point of view, it's incredible. You are actually helping the Empire, I thought that people like you would eventually become traitors in the mouth of the Supreme Emperor. ”

Listening to Korax's question, Qin Mo pondered for a moment, and then remembered something.

The second major expansion of the Tyrone Zone, which was the establishment of the Tyrone Gate Defensive Circle.

At that time, the Star Sector made a deal with the Empire, and the Star Sector helped the Empire put down a rebellion in the galaxy, and then the Ministry of the Interior sealed that galaxy to the Star Sector, and provided legal support in the follow-up work, as long as that remote damn galaxy didn't give people any more headaches.

That system was overrun by rebels who believed in Slaanesh.

The rebel commander is a planetary governor named the Emperor of Mercy, who decides to rebel because the planet is titheed by the empire and the people are struggling to make ends meet.

Outrageously, the rebellion process was when the Governor of the planet called for it, and then the entire system followed suit.

In the course of the rebellion, he came to believe in Slaanesh.

The Governor's people always had smiles on their faces, laughing at mining, laughing at making weapons, laughing at going into battle, laughing at dying under the fire of the Astral Army, or laughing at killing the last Astral Army on the battlefield.

As for why this happened, the Praetorian Guard, who was in charge of handling all of this afterwards, came to a conclusion after investigating that the Governor of the planet valued and cared for his people so strongly that it became an obsession and desire, and was eventually corroded by this overly strong emotion.

This is the end of a good ruler.

And the reason why Qin Mo remembered this old past was because he thought that Corax's curiosity came from the fact that he was a star lord with human nature, and he had not even rebelled against the empire.

"I'm not working with your father to save the Human Empire." Qin Mo replied to Corax, "Never." ”

Corax was silent.

Qin Mo spread out his hand and continued.

"The current state of the human empire if it is ...... metaphorical"

"That is, a dead giant rolls all the way down the downhill road due to inertia, and gets bitten hard when it passes every hyena and every lion, but because this giant is so huge and rolls so fast, no predator can bite him all, and he may even be accidentally crushed to death by a corpse."

"I'm not saving the Empire, because I know it's hopeless. I won't destroy the Empire, because I know it's dead, and no matter how big it is, it's only a matter of time before it turns to dry bones. ”

After Qin Mo finished saying all this, he waited for the current Corax to understand his language.

After thinking about it, Corax manipulated the human head and said in the calmest tone, "...... Be...... A wise man......"

"It's not just you." Qin Mo smiled indifferently and nodded.

But at this time, on the back of the neck of the Lord of Tyrone, a drop of sweat was quietly slipping down.

Corax apparently didn't know that Tyrone didn't pay tithes......

Qin Mo thought so.

The Tyrone Star District can pay taxes three times the tax amount of the Empire's highest-paid star district, and ten times is fine, anyway, it is not trivial, and it is very cost-effective to buy a superficial friendly ...... But tithes of one out of ten must not be accepted.

The Ministry of the Interior dares to mention one out of ten, and soon the Tyrone Navy will take the human emperor in Vanessa to meet the Supreme Ministers in Terra, and explain the benefits and disadvantages under the golden throne.

The reason why he was able to go to the Golden Throne to show his interests was not that the Tyrone Navy was strong, or that the Tyrone Army was very strong, and that the Tyrone Army was very strong.

Rather, it stems from the fact that this Sector Lord can infiltrate Terra alone under the Empire's possible but unlikely vigilance system with a little disguise, and then make a shining appearance at the Supreme Council, giving this casting general, the Lord of the Star Hall, the Admiral State Pope or something.

Although he didn't say this to Colax in person, Qin Mo already knew it in his heart.

But whoever has a second one who learns from the Tyrone Star District can exist for two years thanks to the blessing of the four gods.

"Come back, not to the Empire, but to your father's humanity, to the human species." Qin Mo stretched out his hand to Corax again, "You are indeed abnormal, but your father should have a way to help you." ”

"I'm sorry, no." "I don't hate the Empire and the Emperor, and I understand what he wants, otherwise I wouldn't have led the legion back to save the planet." ”

"For what reason did you refuse? Do you think from the bottom of your heart that you're still helping humanity just because of the habits you left over from your time as Corax? Qin Mo lowered his head, and the disappearing scepter and chainsaw sword appeared in his hand at the same time.

"Yes, but habit is habit, I won't return, but I'll still help you, in secret."

The last response was the last word spoken on his behalf by the head who had escaped from Kolax's control.

And when the words reached Qin Mo's head, Corax had already disappeared without a trace, and he could no longer be found.

"It's a stealth talent that makes Coates jealous."

Qin Mo put away his weapon, thinking that the current Corax was really not in the oil and salt, and at the same time thinking that Killiman and Ryan should not be able to find their own stubble, because they really tried their best.

It can grind the inhuman emperor's will to the point of annoyance, and the skin of the mouth can't grind Colax.

Qin Mo couldn't even figure out whether the communication with Corax was still able to think normally and be rational, or whether it was another disguise as a subspace creature that was good at camouflage.

No way.

It's not that I didn't do my best, it's just that Colax said he couldn't move, Robau, Ryan, don't blame me.

Qin Mo thought so.
