Colonial Suit

Serlariton, Azure Domain.

Zero-Gravity Cell Regeneration Center.

Sitting on a metal chair in the observation room, Blood瞳 quietly watched the twins suspended in mid-air. This was his twelfth day since arriving at Serlariton…

The twins were still unconscious.

The advanced 'medicine' prepared for the twins was all in place, and a medical team of more than three hundred people was on standby day and night. But they could only wait since the twins didn't wake up. On the light screen of the observation device, the curve representing the twins' brain activity continued to rise, already exceeding the critical value for ordinary people, making all participants feel nervous. What would happen next, awakening or death?

No one knew…

“Go and rest for a while, you haven't closed your eyes,” Robbie's voice came from the side. Blood瞳 didn't even blink, just took out a cigarette and lit it.

The pungent smoke entered his lungs, clearing Blood瞳's mind. He raised his head and glanced at Robbie. “No.”

“You know this is meaningless. You can't help them.” Robbie shrugged, but didn't continue to persuade him. He understood Blood瞳, knowing that once Blood瞳 made a decision, no one could change it. But that was also what he admired about Blood瞳. Blood瞳 always carried a unique temperament, both stubborn and persistent, attracting people involuntarily.

Perhaps that was why he could continue to grow stronger. Only such a paranoid person could be focused, and only focus could lead to improvement.

Hearing Robbie's concerned words, Blood瞳's eyebrows relaxed slightly. He took another puff of smoke, then shook his head slightly. “I know, but I just want to watch them. Don't worry. A melee mercenary like me can go without sleep for a month.”

“I know, you guys are all energetic monsters.” Robbie shook his head with a wry smile, sitting down next to Blood瞳.

From his angle, he could see the twin siblings through the observation window. In the spacious zero-gravity chamber, the twins were hugging each other, with expressions of pain flashing across their faces from time to time.

“They are experiencing mind barriers.”

“Oh?” Blood瞳 raised an eyebrow, glancing at Robbie.

“Don't ask me how I know.” Robbie smiled slightly, taking a piece of candy and putting it in his mouth. “You know I just went through this, so after getting out of it, I specifically looked it up and found this term.”

“Mind barriers are also called the Realm of Retrospection, the first hurdle for cosmic warriors to begin evolving. In this process, they have to face the most vulnerable parts of their hearts, which are their weaknesses and confusion. If they can't pass, then they are not qualified to take the next step. So generally speaking, warriors who want to pass the mind barrier will have a sect master to accompany them to get through this most difficult hurdle.”

“…………” Blood瞳 was silent for a while. He didn't expect that there was this step in the evolution of cosmic warriors. After carefully recalling his own process of entering the Meteor rank, he shook his head slightly. “I didn't experience mind barriers.”

“That's because your will has exceeded the limit of mind barriers. Ordinary mental illusions are ineffective against you.” Robbie shrugged. “This kind of thing is not common, but it's not nonexistent. There are many records in the mercenary headquarters.”

“But it's different for ordinary warriors. Mind barriers are a test of willpower. If the will cannot reach a certain stage, then the mind barrier is an insurmountable obstacle.” Speaking of this, Robbie sighed. “Just like me.”

“…………” Blood瞳 was silent for a moment, then suddenly said. “You've already done very well, it's just that your heart is too soft.”

“That's my weakness…” Robbie touched his nose and smiled awkwardly. “Okay, let's not talk about these. Let's talk about these two little guys. They are different from me, they are standard ability-type mercenaries. Do you know what that means?”

“It means their mental strength is stronger, and the mind barrier is more difficult.”

“Mind barriers are proportional to mental strength. The stronger the warrior's mental strength, the more realistic the mind barrier, and the more directly it enters the heart. If they encounter an insufficiently firm will…”

Robbie didn't continue, but Blood瞳 knew what he meant.

The atmosphere suddenly solidified, and neither of them spoke, watching the twins suspended in the zero-gravity chamber. Blood瞳 took one puff of smoke after another. After a long time, he extinguished the cigarette and slowly stood up…

“If you're going to do the same thing as me, I advise you to be mentally prepared.” Just then, Robbie suddenly spoke.

“Huh?” Blood瞳 was stunned, looking at Robbie seriously.

Robbie seemed not to feel it, and continued to say to himself. “The mental world of ability-type mercenaries is more realistic and more rigorous. Overly abnormal mental intrusion will only have the opposite effect. And… don't forget, they are twins. It is said that the mental worlds of twins are often connected…”

That is to say, Blood瞳 has to maintain two mental worlds at the same time?

This is difficult. You know, Blood瞳 was seriously injured just by untangling Robbie's knot, because he had to carefully suppress himself so as not to damage the structure of the mental world. But now there are two people, and the difficulty has doubled. This is a relatively optimistic situation. If the twins' will is weaker than they thought, then the result is even more unpredictable.

This is simply playing with fire.

But…

“You know, I don't have many choices.” Blood瞳 was silent for a while, and said to Robbie. The next moment, he turned and walked out of the room.

Looking at his lonely back, Robbie smiled.

In fact, wasn't he saying this to help Blood瞳, to help the twins?

Mind barriers are the first difficult hurdle for cosmic warriors to move towards evolution. Under normal circumstances, they need the protection of a sect master. But they don't have a sect master by their side now, and the only person who can do all this is Blood瞳.

But isn't this kind of thing also a difficult hurdle for a warrior who has just entered the Comet level?

“I can only rely on you, Captain.” Robbie lowered his head, took out another piece of candy and put it in his mouth, chewing slowly…

---------------------Line of Love and Betrayal------------------------

At this time, the twins were experiencing the first sweetness in their lives.

In a small room, the twelve-year-old twins were sleeping. Across from them, a woman was lovingly covering them with silk blankets, then gently kissing their cheeks.

The daughter is beautiful, and her eyes are very gentle.

This was the fourth master of the twins, and also their last. The twins still clearly remembered that this woman rescued them from an abandoned city. Then she brought them by her side.

That abandoned city was a mission battlefield. The twins thought they would complete the mission smoothly, but they didn't expect to encounter extremely strong enemies. Each of those enemies was equipped with armor, and the number was more than a hundred times that of the two. After fighting continuously for twelve days, the twins finally collapsed to the ground. At this moment, this woman descended from the sky and defeated the enemies in one fell swoop.

The woman's name was Krami, which in ancient Beshal means deadly rose.

In the room, the woman kissed the twins and walked out of the room.

Watching this scene reappear in front of them, the twins in the rain curtain were not happy. Because they all knew what would happen next.

This woman was indeed very good to them, so good that it was a bit unexpected. From the moment she rescued the twins, she had been taking them by her side, teaching them how to fight, how to avoid risks, how to use their abilities, and how to survive in the cruel universe.

It can be said that this woman played an important role in the twins' lives, an almost irreplaceable role… mother.

Yes, for a long time, the twins regarded her as their mother. Respecting her, loving her.

Every day, the twins would wake up from their dreams in her gentleness, and a rich meal would already be prepared on the table. They would live in the best room, and the sun would kiss every inch of the twins' skin through the gauze curtains. They would eat breakfast in Krami's gentle gaze, and then go to training together.

In training, Krami was very strict with them. But she would feel sorry for the twins when they were injured. After each training session, she would hug the twins in her arms and tell them stories about the universe.

What a happy time that was… Even now, the twins felt sweetly crazy when they thought about it.

Until the day of their thirteenth birthday…

That day, Krami had to go out for a mission. Before leaving, she specifically called the twins over and arranged the next training courses for them.

The twins obediently agreed and sent Krami away. Then they cheered…

“Sister, Master Krami is finally gone, let's go out and play?” Brother Bosi suggested. His little face was full of excited red light.

Krami was very good to them, but she was a bit strict. So the twins had almost no time to play. Now the opportunity has come.

“But…” Miya hesitated. “Master Krami has arranged a lot of homework for us… If we do this, will she be unhappy?”

“Don't worry, we'll just play for a while.” Bosi said with a smile. “Master Krami won't know. And we won't leave this castle. What do you say?”

“Don't leave the castle?” Miya's eyes lit up. “That's a good idea. But where do we go to play?”

“We're going to the third secret room.” Bosi replied sneakily.

The third secret room was Krami's most secret room. It was also a room that the twins had never been allowed to enter. In Krami's private castle, the third secret room could be said to be a special existence. Anyone, let alone enter, even approaching it would incur Krami's wrath.

But for the young twins, that place obviously aroused their curiosity.

“This… is not good, right?” Miya was still hesitating. But she was obviously a little tempted.

“Hehe, what's wrong? Anyway, we'll just play for a while. I've long wanted to know what's in the third secret room. Sister Miya, don't you want to know too?”

“Okay, let's just take a look.” Miya was quickly persuaded by Bosi. The next moment, they sneaked down to the bottom of the castle…

The third secret room.

It was right there.
