Chapter 291 Changes

"What do you think of him now?"

"Calm, composed, mysterious...reliable. It's like he has become a completely different person."

Zero's bedroom is in a luxurious Baroque style - its previous owner, Elizabeth I, used it to spend spring nights with her lover. In the center of the bedroom is a large bronze bathtub. This fragrant design is convenient for the hostess to take the unwashed bathtub with her after bathing. The dry drops of water went directly to the big bed.

Zero had no intention of changing the structure of her bedroom. She just added a bronze desk. Now she is sitting at the table and writing neat Russian on a piece of paper.

The bathtub was being used by someone else. An Asian beauty lay enjoying herself in the bathtub filled with foam and petals. Her two slender white legs rested on the bronze edge, outlining a thrilling and perfect line.

"That's a correct summary. I had the same impression when I saw him in person. I thought that the wet nurse group would probably be disbanded before it officially debuted."

Mai Shutoku stretched her waist lazily, "You should know what the task ordered by the boss is, right?"

"Well, send him to the 'terminus' - but we don't know where the coordinates of the 'terminus' are." Zero was still concentrating on writing the letter and did not take a second look at this beauty in the world.

"You have lived in that research institute for so many years and you have no impression at all?"

"It has been almost twenty years. Everything there has most likely been buried in the wind and snow. Without the exact coordinates, it would be difficult to find it even if we could travel throughout Siberia," Zero said slowly, "Also …The place we are going to is ‘Paradise’.”

She finished writing the letter, sealed it in a sky-blue envelope, poured it on the already heated fire paint, picked up a copper seal with her name from the side and sealed it - the ancient and elegant way of writing a letter.

"Sounds like a good place." Mai Shutoku rinsed off the foam and petals on her body and stepped out of the bathtub naked, revealing her perfect body curves that made people's blood rush. She picked a silk bathrobe and wrapped it up, "The boss didn't give us any clues? Does he plan to let us work as detective Conan in Siberia to find the real murderer?"

Zero glanced at her briefly and said expressionlessly: "No, now I can only ask through high-level connections. I hope that the connections in this capacity can still come in handy."

She rang the bell next to the table, and after a few seconds the bedroom door opened. A well-dressed housekeeper walked quickly to her side and took Ling's letter with both hands.

"Give this letter to Mr. Minister of Defense in person and tell him that Zero Razumovsky Romanov wants to invite him to lunch tomorrow." Zero said calmly.

"Yes, Your Highness!" The butler bowed and turned away with his head held high, without even glancing at the rest of the bedroom from beginning to end.

"Are you going to take him with you tomorrow?" After a while, Mai Shutoku, who was lying on the big bed, suddenly asked.

"Um."

"Then you'd better be careful. Wherever this little angel goes, fights will follow. Mortals like us will suffer if gods of his level fight." Mai Shutoku reminded.

Zero didn't respond, staring thoughtfully at the pen on the table.

She remembered the past. At that time, her name was not Zero, and she did not have a surname as prominent as Romanov but not her own.

Her name is Renata, and she is Dr. Herzog's genetic experiment No. 38.

It was also in that research institute called Black Swan Port that she met "Number Zero" who was locked up in a solitary room.

The boy wore a straitjacket and was injected with various medicines every day. At the same time, he had mysterious and powerful powers. He predicted and led himself to escape from the burning Black Swan Port;

When the terrible fighter jets fired rockets and blew his body into pieces, it was also Zero's warm hands that held him, reciting ancient testimonies, and with a contract that lasted tens of millions of years, a contract that could last for tens of millions of years. The contract that brings the dead back to life and the dead flower to bloom again gives her new life:

"We will not abandon each other or betray each other along the way until the end of death."

…

In the past six months, Zero often dreamed that he was back in the cage called Black Swan Harbor, holding a stuffed bear named Zorro, being raped by the terrifying Dr. Herzog, the vicious nurse, or those who created She was chased by "demonized" soldiers; every time she instinctively ran to Room Zero where "Zero" was, as if that was her safe house.

However, every time he broke through the heavy iron door of Room Zero, it was a giant covered in bright yellow steel armor who directly slaughtered the vicious creatures chasing him in different ways, such as spears. , such as heavy muskets, or fierce chainsaws...

"Could it be him?"

Number Zero, Lu Mingfei... Zero tried to put them together in his head, but he never succeeded.

The change in Lu Mingfei's image, coupled with the sight of Lu Mingfei's naked and strong body when she took a shower just now, made her feel like a skinny loser suddenly transformed into a JOJO style painting style with wonderful BGM and onomatopoeia. A muscular man who appears in an unknown and powerful pose.

"Are you thinking about the relationship between the boss and Lu Mingfei?" Jiude Mai's light voice interrupted Zero's thoughts, "Then it's best not to think about it. There's no need for mortals like us to get involved in the affairs of gods. , let’s get started.”

"...Hmm." Zero's response was a bit perfunctory.

For her, this is also a journey back to the past. A considerable part of the memory in her mind is missing, as if it has been wiped out and she can never remember it again.

She no longer remembers how she and Zero were separated in the first place. The image in her memory only shows the boy carrying the girl on his back, walking in the wind and snow, trying to walk from Moscow to China along the railway track. It was at that time that she was given the name "Zero".

"But the boss did say something...but it's still the same riddle as always. Do you want to guess?"

"What?" Zero asked subconsciously.

"He said maybe this version of reality is more fleshed out than the last one, and at least has an ending - whether it's good or bad."

…

Fingel got his wish and had a sumptuous meal. The maids and waiters of Elizabeth Palace served a fifteen-course dinner to the three guests, all of which were generous and filling.

After dinner, Lu Mingfei took out the "Project Delta" file again and stared at the black and white photo of "himself" and thought.

He didn't care about the dark and inhumane experiences he had - these were nothing compared to the century-old conquests of the Lamenters Chapter, and had long since been buried;

Not to mention the "dark top-secret genetic engineering" - Astartes himself is the product of this kind of engineering, and he was lucky enough to be recognized by the Chapter Master, and was directly promoted from a servant of the Chapter to an Angel of the Emperor. It is said that other New recruits of the Astartes Chapter must undergo various cruel and rigorous tests and trials before they are qualified to undergo transformation surgery.

He wondered how this related to what His Majesty the Emperor had called his "own origins."

Lu Mingze is like a consciousness "residing" in his own body, but at the same time he has the power to affect reality. For example, Zero and Shutoku Mai are the forces he cultivated in reality;

He once tempted himself to help him realize any wish at the cost of a quarter of his life - although Lu Mingfei really wanted to see and own a legal (law of the Mechanicum) Emperor-class Titan, this This promise was immediately rebuked by him and he regarded Lu Mingze as a blasphemous devil.

A quarter of one's life is exchanged for one wish. Once the fire of "greed" in the human heart is ignited, it is difficult to extinguish it, and there will soon be a second and third wish... If you really pay with your life What happens after you make four wishes?

The ownership of this body belongs to Lu Mingze? Isn't this a despicable and dirty act that only demons can do?

But if Lu Mingze was really a devil, His Majesty the Emperor would have wiped him out with a slap, but now the two have more of an attitude... similar to cooperation?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt the blasphemy of his thoughts. Lu Mingfei quickly suppressed his thoughts and concentrated on tracing his so-called origins first.

Origin Origin... Could it be that I, like Ronald Tang, am also an alien?

But he quickly gave up the idea, put away the files, and switched to meditation to empty his mind——

Because His Majesty the Emperor ordered to cancel the daily prayer time of the Sword of Revelation Legion that had unknown meaning to Lu Mingfei since Lu Mingfei:

"Just let me experience the rare purity."
