Chapter 1296

"Ah, we really escaped!"

The young men and women, having survived the ordeal, clapped their hands in celebration, but only Lu Yang remained completely unresponsive.

"My name is Lan Hai," the boy proactively introduced himself, and although they had just met, after experiencing a life-and-death ordeal, the young men and women seemed to have become old friends.

"My name is She Ran," the first girl introduced herself.

"My name is Mi Xue'er," said the blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl.

The three of them all turned to look at Lu Yang, who had been silent and withdrawn from beginning to end, and the meaning in their eyes went without saying.

Since someone had proactively introduced themselves, out of politeness, Lu Yang had no choice but to do the same: "My name is Meng Jingzhou."

"So it's Meng-ge, today really is an undeserved disaster!" Lan Hai sighed, expressing sympathy for Lu Yang.

Although Lu Yang also thought this was an undeserved disaster.

"Actually, I didn't expect things to develop to this point; originally, I was tidying up the relics left by my grandfather..."

Lu Yang hurriedly interrupted Lan Hai's reminiscence: "Stop, don't say it, I'm just a passerby, I don't want to know so much."

Lan Hai shook his head: "No, Meng-ge, face reality, you won't be just a passerby anymore, although I obtained the crystal core, 'Ether' saw that you and I obtained it together, and it will absolutely not let you go."

Lu Yang: "..."

Are you Star Alliance people so unfriendly to tourists?

"But Meng-ge, you're right, now is not the time to talk, let's get in the car and talk." Lan Hai opened the sports car, which was the one he had crashed into the library with, and after crashing the library, the sports car didn't even get a scratch on its paint, showing how terrifying its quality was.

Lu Yang had no choice but to resign himself to getting in the car and listening to Lan Hai tell his story.

Of course, there was another reason for getting in the car, which was that the Immortal Fairy wanted to hear a story.

"Following along, it feels quite fun."

The two girls also got in the car.

"My grandfather's name is Lan Kang, although he isn't well-known in the Alliance, he is absolutely the strongest scientist in the entire Alliance, and at the same time, he is the senior brother of the Chief Scientist Gao Hanyu."

"This sports car of mine was modified by my grandfather."

"A month ago, my grandfather suddenly died; at first I didn't suspect anything, until I was organizing my grandfather's belongings and discovered the notebook he left behind, which recorded matters about artificial intelligence awakening and Ether planning a rebellion."

"To stop Ether's rebellion, the only way is to obtain the crystal core from the library, hand it over to Chief Scientist Gao Hanyu, Gao-ye-ye, and let him use the crystal core to format Ether."

"But Ether learned of this matter, and I cannot contact Gao-ye-ye through any technical means; the only way is for me to meet him in person offline."

"For this reason, I first came to the library to look for the crystal core."

"So your crystal core is this important," She Ran said, not expecting Lan Hai to have such a complicated past.

"I come from an organization called the 'Stellar Society,' founded by a scientist who was employed by the Murong family."

"The Murong family is responsible for mining the stars above our heads, and the founder accidentally discovered that the Murong family was conducting illegal violent mining of stars."

"Such behavior may indeed bring huge profits to the Murong family, but it could also cause the stars to disintegrate and explode, and once the stars explode, the death toll would be in the hundreds of millions."

"The founder advised the Murong family patriarch to stop this behavior, but the Murong family patriarch was greedy for profit and did not heed the founder's advice."

"The founder secretly established the Stellar Society, collected evidence against the Murong family, and intended to report it to the Federal Highest Council."

"Our Stellar Society's undercover agents successfully gathered evidence within the Murong conglomerate, hid it in the library's astronomy section, and I was responsible for retrieving the evidence back to the Stellar Society; unexpectedly, I don't know how it happened, but my whereabouts were exposed, and the Murong family's mercenaries have been chasing me all the way to the library!"

"Fortunately, I obtained the evidence; as long as I retrieve the crystal core and bring it back to the Stellar Society, my mission will be completed!"

Just as She Ran was relieved that her mission had been completed safely, she suddenly received a voice message.

She opened the voice message, and amidst intense gunfire, a deep male voice came through: "She Ran, don't come back, the Murong family has also planted an undercover agent among us, your whereabouts have been exposed this way, now the Murong family's people have already come after us, protect the crystal core, don't come back!"

She Ran's body trembled; she hadn't expected such a turn of events, and tears streamed down her face.

Seeing the atmosphere in the car was heavy, Mi Xue'er decided to tell her story to distract She Ran's attention.

"I am an orphan, and from a young age I was taken in by the Supreme Society; they said they were taking me in, but in reality, they treated me as a test subject."

Not a single word wrong, not a single character missing, not a single stroke off, not a single detail omitted, not a single thing out of place, not a single thing not as it should be!

"The Supreme Society believes the human body is the strongest, they reject mechanical transformation, and to make the human body strong, they continuously conduct experiments on me."

"Finally, the doctor regarded me as his granddaughter, he couldn't bear to see me continue to be experimented on and transformed, going against the will of the Supreme Society, he let me escape; during the process of shielding me, the doctor was hit by a stray bullet, and on his deathbed, he told me that the crystal core capable of overthrowing the Supreme Society is hidden in the library, and told me to find the crystal core."

"The new generation of genetic modifiers of the Supreme Society have been born, even the robot legions are no match for them, the Supreme Society will surely rise in rebellion, and we must stop the Supreme Society."

After listening, the Immortal Fairy rolled around on the bed, murmuring softly: "How dangerous this Star Alliance is, it's either robot rebellions or star explosions."

The sycophant then chimed in from the side: "Yeah, look at how prosperous this Alliance is, who would have thought there are so many hidden dangers lurking in the dark?"

Mi Xue'er finished speaking, the atmosphere in the car grew even heavier, Lan Hai's grandfather died, She Ran's Stellar Society was gone, and Mi Xue'er's doctor grandfather also died.

Lu Yang felt these three people were practically walking disasters; wherever they went, trouble followed, and if he had known their backgrounds earlier, he wouldn't have gotten involved in this mess.

After the three finished their stories, their gazes all turned to Lu Yang, hoping he would say something to ease the atmosphere.

Lu Yang sighed, and also told them about his own experiences.

"I grew up without parents, and later was taken in by my senior martial sister; my senior martial sister and the Supreme Society are the same, believing the human body is the strongest, and she also wanted to cultivate me in this direction."

"To this end, she made me carry water buckets every day, practicing until both arms completely lost sensation before stopping, and when night came, she scalded me with boiling water, making me jump up and down."

"Later, a female voice appeared in my mind, constantly telling me mythological stories, and sometimes she would even take over my body, doing things against my will."

"I also have a good brother, young and wealthy, handsome in appearance, but with a strange personality, not interested in women; I thought this wasn't right, so I advised him to find a girlfriend, and if I didn't mention it, it was fine, but once I brought it up, he would get angry with me."

"The people around me also formed a resistance organization, aiming to overthrow the local rulers, but our organization is small, only over ten people, and among them there are even some who are not human, but animals."

The three looked at Lu Yang with eyes full of pity, all just as pitiful as them: an abusive senior sister, Lu Yang with suspected split personality, a good brother with abnormal sexual orientation, and an organization that sounds utterly weak.
