Old Hunter of Tomorrow’s Ark

"Welcome to my laboratory, Mr. Gaoch, and...the other two."

With the heavy turning sound of metal gears, a wide laboratory appeared in the baroque-style mansion.

Different from the dim lights in the western mansion, it is illuminated by white energy-saving lamps, and strict ultraviolet disinfection lamps can be seen everywhere.

"Wow, it's really... nostalgic, it reminds me of the time I worked at Rhine Life."

Although in terms of cleanliness, it is not comparable to Kelsey's severe obsessive-compulsive disorder of cleanliness, but it is already comparable to the research laboratory of Rhine Life.

Although there are also many old-fashioned telescopes, brass stills, and even celestial globes that seem to be very similar to the celestial globes often held in the hands of the stars, there are also many modern equipment.

Various research instruments, Gao Qi, who has worked in Rhine Life, can even call out their names accurately.

"Originium crystal detector, Originium energy spectrometer...and the military filter produced by Raytheon Industry in 1090, which is quite professional."

Looking at the modern research laboratory that suddenly appeared in this "Vampire Castle", Gao Qi had to drop his stereotype and admit that even the Warlock family must use some modern research instruments.

"Isn't this a very modern facility? It seems that even if you are a member of the Warlock family, you are very knowledgeable about modern technology. Why are you still at odds with Kelu Xier?"

Gao Qi was a little regretful and a little fortunate that he didn't see a room full of blood and filth like Cainhurst's style here.

"What do you think I should do, like the Samidon witch a thousand years ago, boil a potion in a cauldron? The progress of science and technology is an objective fact, and anyone who goes against the trend will definitely fall behind. The main structure of the celestial globe obtained by Simil Stargazer is still made of pure gold; when the Witch King was in power, the Letanians also sent me high-purity spell crystals extracted from the infected... Now All these are gone, isn't it a good thing?"

With a burst of sterilized white mist, Alonael walked out of the room on the side. Gao Qi's future mother-in-law had taken off the gorgeous dress for socializing and put on a neat white lab coat.

"But science and technology are tools, not toys, and modern science will only help us to analyze the world, not the reason why Roussil can be bored in the house every day, laughing and playing with a bunch of friends - I just hope she does something Things that benefit the world, not some firewall or something."

"Well, maybe so, but maybe you can be patient and learn more about each other's work... I'm just saying."

Gao Qi shrugged, unable to deny it. It seems that there is still a lot of misunderstanding between the mother-in-law and the Rhode Island profiteer.

Although both of them are still modern blood demons, a warlock who has been in the laboratory for many years cannot understand the life of a top network engineer and hacker.

I can only hope that Her Royal Highness Thearesia can dig up Kruhir as soon as possible.

"However, thank you for your concern for the little girl. I have imagined many times what kind of existence I will meet, and now it looks better than those assumptions I have."

Looking at the tall black-haired man, Lucille's mother, a blood demon noble, "Blood Thirst" Alonael nodded.

He seems relaxed, but in fact he is extremely alert. His muscles are tense like a cheetah. As long as there is a slight disturbance, he will fight immediately.

Even if he has no weapons in his hand, Alonael knows that this perfect killing machine can easily kill everyone in the house.

Compared with the strength of the flesh, the strength of the will is even more frightening. He seems to be carrying a falling moon, which makes people unable to help but worship.

However, in the eyes of bloodthirsty people, these powers are justified.

Otherwise, he would not be able to make the starry sky return to the universe.

A person who ended the fate of a god, to be precise, a person with the power to kill gods is so approachable, making this old Gorefiend feel a little fortunate.

However, when he saw behind him, the two white-haired and red-eyed real girls and fake girls sighed.

"Actually, I'm just being polite, and I don't really plan to let you guys come... ah, it's really troublesome."

Hearing her words, the two Sarkaz girls raised their eyebrows at the same time, showing disdainful expressions in sync.

"This is the most troublesome place for you nobles. Half of the words are hidden, and the rest is kept in the stomach for others to guess. We servants never pay attention to this. If you let me come, then I will come. ."

With his arms crossed, W curiously looked at the large glass cabins around him. Young Sakaz, who had been running for his life and fighting since he could remember, had never seen such advanced professional equipment.

"However, I'm soft-spoken, so you don't have to care too much about a nobody like me. I'm here just to have fun. If you want to talk about serious business - you still have to talk to this guy."

Saying that, W still stretched out his hand, arched his fingers, and tapped Gao Qi's chest, making a muffled sound - when he was okay, W always likes to relieve the boredom like this, Gao Qi is quite strong~ ~

On the other side, Warfarin still held Gao Qi's arm tightly, propping up the facade in front of her old best friend.

"I'm also not interested in your research on old pink eye disease, but Gao Qi is my boyfriend. How could I let him live in the same room as you, a widow, just think about it!"

Obviously, Warfarin was very curious about what Gao Qi and Alonael had to say, and Gao Qi was used as a good excuse.

"Also, it's not that I don't know anything. If you want to talk to Gao Qi about... Kelsey's research, then it's okay for me to listen to it - right?"

Saying that, Warfarin raised her head, Chong Gaoqi showed expectant eyes, and the pointed little tiger teeth were particularly attractive.

Although Warfarin herself is obsessed with blood medicine, she is not completely ignorant of the issues that her old friend Kelsey and this Alonael have been studying over the years.

Warfarin is also clear that whether it is natural disasters or mineral disease, as well as some unexplained catastrophic phenomena for many years, it seems that they are related to their research - Kelsey has many research partners all over the world. , but only she is physically walking around the world.

Considering the relationship between Gao Qi and Kelsey, Warfarin felt that he had better know what he wanted to know.

"...Xingxingxing, it's okay for you to listen, although I don't think you can understand either - Mudyan, come in too, it looks like everyone is rejecting you."

Nodding helplessly, Gao Qi waved at the door again, and the next second, the unicorn-like black helmet of mudstone came in from the door.

"We may have to live here for a while, Mudstone, you really don't think about taking off your armor?"

Looking at her long horn that almost touched the door frame, although Gao Qi was used to the existence of this "big guy", he still hoped to see the cute little princess wrapped in it sooner.

"No, after I take off my arms, my combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced. I will give priority to ensuring your safety, Mr. Gao Qi, and then take time to rest."

Mudyan shook her head and stood silently behind Gao Qi. She didn't care what she was going to hear next, but she didn't want to be too far away from Gao Qi - she had already decided to protect Gao Qi.

"That's good, Mr. Gaoch... Your charisma is stronger than I imagined, and it is expected that you can get to know Lord Kelsey, and it even seems that you are very familiar with her - if she doesn't It would be strange to run into you."

With a flick of his slender palm, the signal carried by the Originium Art turned on a projector on the computer in the room.

Soon, a portrait appeared on the projection. The brushstrokes of the painting style were vivid and realistic, like a photo.

In the photo, a young girl with short black hair, similar in appearance to Kelu Xier, is following a film woman with short white and green hair, looking at her with reverence, as if she is a little follower.

The woman in the film was wearing old and dark clothes. Although Gao Qi didn't know much about the history of clothing, he could see that it was definitely not a costume used for cosplay now, but a genuine ancient saka. Dressed up to look like a scholar.

And obviously, the female Filmin who still had Sima's face was only one person.

"Ha... Kelsey, I think, another lovely girl, is that you?"

Looking at this old realistic painting, Gao Qi couldn't help raising his eyebrows - this old lynx can really be seen everywhere.

"I was young then, not now, and I was called 'old pink eye' by a guy not much younger than me - Kelsey was my enlightener and my personal teacher, and I admire her wisdom and vision. , although our ideas are not completely similar, but I also learned a lot of rules about the operation of this world from her mouth, we have not seen each other for many years, but we are still working **** each other's path."

Calmly telling the story of nearly a thousand years ago, the old Gorefiend's tone was full of nostalgia and melancholy.

"Old pink eye... There are three ladies with red eyes present, so this can't be regarded as a swear word."

Hearing Warfarin's teasing towards the bloodthirsty, Gao Qi suddenly thought that in the original work, the undead black snake from Ursus who likes to control beautiful girls to wear beautiful little skirts... seems to have mentioned this term.

He even expressed a little fear.

Sure enough... the old pink-eyed "thirst for blood" is also an incredible longevity person.

First the chief, then the bloodthirsty, one and two are Kelsey's students... This old lynx, while she was wandering in the dust, God knows how many secret games she has buried all over the world.

My future wife is my mother-in-law's teacher or something... It's exciting to think about it.

"Well, if anything has something to do with Kelsey, then it's not surprising, let's get back to the point, Ms. Alonael... First of all, I want to ask, how on earth did you know of my existence, and how did you know about my existence? How do you know that someone in the blood city wants to hunt me down?"

Thinking according to common sense, this veteran aristocrat who is powerful and powerful in the blood city and has enough funds to support the huge laboratory, it is not difficult to find out about Gao Qi from the outside.

But obviously, this Kelsey student knows more than that.

"I know everything—well, just kidding, if the teacher doesn't seem to understand something, she tends to say that."

After speaking a line that made Gao Qi a little surprised, Alonael took a little more, and the content on the projector was quickly replaced by another portrait.

"That's another story - that was probably when I was in my early 100s."

In the portrait, there is a Kuranta woman wearing a white robe with an eye pattern embroidered on her chest, standing side by side with Alonael who has grown into a big girl.

"Ah... I understand."

I get it, I totally get it.

Of course Gao Qi knew who she was. Two months ago, Gao Qi had a close conversation with her - the **** of the stars.

To be precise, it is the Kuranta scholar who has not yet become the **** of the stars, but is only a member of the Casimir Astrological Society.

"Although the Sarkaz Empire died out long before I was born, when Casimir was still ruled by the gods, the Gorefiend Court also sent me to Letania, Casimir and the Gallic Empire for an academic visit ."

Looking at the person in the painting, a trace of nostalgia appeared on the old Gorefiend's face.

"She was also taught by Teacher Kelsey, but she also chose a completely different path from ours, intending to use herself to heal the wounds of the starry sky... And before she died, she passed the news to me from thousands of miles away , and several other old friends, part experience, part lesson, that's all."

Looking in front of him, the hunter wearing a black trench coat, the "thirst for blood" sighed long.

"This is a common question for everyone. Everyone knows that this year is the 1091 year of the Terra calendar, so here comes the question - have you heard of the 'Skyfall' incident in the first year of the Terra calendar?"

28. Skyfall and the Doctor! (5k)

The origin of the first year of the Terra calendar is known to anyone who has studied a little history.

Just like on Earth, although the calendars vary from place to place, the most widely used official calendar is the Terran calendar.

This calendar was first used in religious ceremonies, spread from Rutland, and gradually adopted by countries in modern society.

The first day of the first year is called the day of falling from the sky by the Rutland people.

At that time, the entire continent was being ravaged by the khan's nightmare, Qi Xue, and the long whip from the steppe lashed the knights of the church, causing the entire West to tremble.

Even Rutland, which was still vast at that time, was directly forced to its capital by the army led by the Khan's younger brother, relying on Rutland's thick city walls to defend against the khan's iron hoofs-you know, at that time, The Rutlanders haven't dug up the STC standard production module for guns, otherwise they would have unified the continent long ago.

For the Rutland people, they have never caught up and fought like this before. Many priests devoutly believe in their only god, and even think that the gods have abandoned the Rutland, and the khan is the calamity that punishes them, in desperation. suicide in.

But...things took a turn.

The siege lasted for more than a year, but from a certain day, the Great Khan's team that surrounded Rutland suddenly receded like a tide, leaving the devastated city of Rutland for the rest of its life, which has continued to this day. .

The accurate interpretation of history is because the Great Khan himself had been besieging the city under the fish city of the Yan Kingdom for several months and could not be attacked. was killed.

The death of the Great Khan split the nomadic regime, which was not close, into several factions in an instant, exhausting its potential in the seizure of each other's powers, and finally withered away completely under the counterattacks of the East and the West.

However, the Rutlanders have their own interpretations of the reasons for the retreat of the Great Khan's army.

On that day, huge meteor swarms appeared on the entire Terra Continent. The huge meteors were not even completely consumed by the atmosphere, but landed all over the continent.

"This is the day the sky falls. The Rutlan people believe that the meteors are wrapped in the gift of the gods. A battle between the gods took place in the sky, and the anger of the gods smashed on the earth. The Great Khan's army has been reduced to fly ash, and what remains is the god's reward for the believers."

On the projector, many ancient frescoes are presented, one of which is the fresco "The Day of Wrath" on the Rutland Cathedral, which is Rutland's most famous cultural landscape.

In the light-colored but meaningful murals, the invisible gods waved their swords, and countless shining meteors descended from the burning sky. Earth, praising the mighty shores of the gods.

"These religious people have never been able to kick a few ounces of oil in their stomachs, and they will soon gain incredible power from the meteors. This fact is made public - but it just so happens that everyone has a belief in a god, even if it's just a Those who have little faith have gained this power, including the king of knights who do not believe in gods."

Standing in front of the projector, the bloodthirsty man was playing with a small wand that served as a pointer.

"The cognition of the teachings in Rutland has been deviated, and they believe that the gods are not the only ones, and the part of the Reformed who want to use the power of the gods began to leave and establish the Iberian Empire, which is the origin of the 'Great Schism' …”

In front of the two mercenaries who were already bewildered, Warfarin, who knew little about it, and Gao Qi who kept nodding, he added the setting. It seems that Alonael has prepared these words for several years.

"The day of falling from the sky is the beginning of a new era of Terra. After that, Terra's technology began to flourish, and the research on Originium technology gradually deepened... Of course, it also includes Sarkaz, who has become a dead species. Man, Mr. Gaoch, if you are really what my old friend guessed, you should be able to understand what I mean."

Blood-red eyes looked at Gao Qi, the bloodthirsty one was very happy, seeing the understanding she was expecting.

"I see... I have already guessed about it."

Nodding, Gao Qi pinched his chin, but his heart was full of waves.

Obviously, that was the moment when Gao Qi came to Terra - the first year of the Terra calendar, the first day of the first month.

At that time, Gao Qi left the hunter world where Yanan was located. He consumed too much power when crossing the world, and was attacked by an unknown god. The originally powerful force was torn apart and fell all over Terra.

In Sargon, Gauche gained the sealed power of the Foehn.

In Casimir, the king of knights returned Gochi's holy sword to its original owner.

Gao Qi is convinced that if he can get back these powers, he will not only return to the peak at that time, but even... become stronger.

There is no other reason. Terra is an outstanding person. With a high singularity, the blessing of his own strength will even exceed the increase in Yanan.

After all, in the land of Yanan, there are not so many Originium minerals, and the energy contained in it is not that much.

[Ha, also said luck or misfortune, luckily I didn’t wake up a thousand years earlier, probably only saw Kelsey’s wife, unfortunately I didn’t know where to sleep for a thousand years... What do you think? , Miss Doll, could it be that I fell into the subspace? 】

He sighed that his fate was ill-fated, even if he was as powerful as a high-ranking person, he still could not fully control his own destiny. Gao Qi asked the puppet lady in his mind.

[If we had woken up a thousand years earlier, you wouldn't have harmed so many little girls - but I don't know, kind hunter, I am of one mind with you, and I woke up a year ago. 】

In her mind, Miss Doll was also a lot more serious, but after thinking about it again and again, she still shook her head, she couldn't know more than Gao Qi.

[I can only vaguely remember that we drifted here not long after we left Yanan, as if attracted by something, and then we were attacked - you protected me behind you, fought them alone, and then... ...cough, hum! 】

She couldn't help recalling Gao Qi's handsome side again. Miss Doll couldn't help blushing, and felt that this behavior did not match her recent high-cold image, so she could only cough slightly and snorted coldly. Turn your head away.

[Okay... ah, I'm really busy with things, I just want to take care of my old age. 】

With a sigh, Gao Qi knew that at that time, he must have encountered a formidable opponent.
