Chapter 628: Look, I''ve Found Something - A Stranded Heart Demon n!
Su Chen''s inner thoughts rang withughter; the fish had finally taken the bait.
"Do you think someone of my stature needs to lie?" Su Chen raised an eyebrow, deliberately adopting an arrogant posture.
The Heart Demon n, having gathered some information through Du Jing, knew that the person before them held the highest power on this. Generally, what such individuals said tended to be true.
Of course, there was also the possibility of deception.
If Su Chen hadn''t initially presented the image of the Dream Shadow n''s demise, the Heart Demon n would never have believed his words.
"What do I need to do?" The Heart Demon n adjusted its stance and inquired.
The fact that it could ask this question indicated its willingness to engage in a transaction.
"Very well, let''s start with your origins. You aren''t originally from Du Jing''s Inner Demon, are you?"
Su Chen didn''t directly state that it was a Heart Demon n born of the Winged n. After all, only it should be aware of this fact, and revealing it might lead to unnecessary misunderstandings.Since they were preparing to cooperate and Su Chen had already caught it, the Heart Demon n decided toe clean about its background.
Just as the System had mentioned, it was indeed a Heart Demon n born from a certain Winged n, one that had nearly brought about the downfall of the entire Winged n.
The Winged n was a mystical race,cking a true sense of self; everything was controlled by their mother. If the mothermanded them to die, they would do so without hesitation.
The concept of a having consciousness might seem far-fetched, but such urrences did asionally take ce. It was said that when the Zerg Hive evolved to its final stage, it would be a Zerg, possessing consciousness.
However, the situation with the Winged n''s mother was different; the had consciousness before the Winged n came into existence. These Winged n individuals were essentially the enforcers and protectors of their mother''s will.
After the birth of the Winged n, they relentlessly attacked the surroundings as ordered by their mother, eradicating all life-bearings.
In theory, these Winged n individuals could never truly develop self-awareness. The so-called consciousness within them could, at most, be considered a rigid set of programs.
But an unexpected event urred when one of the Winged n members gained self-awareness.
Upon realizing its difference from other Winged n members, it carefully concealed itself, never revealing its true nature. However, during a mission, the team it belonged to was abandoned, and a hint of resentment towards the mother arose within it.
It narrowly escaped death and sessfully returned to the mother. During that time, its inner resentment gradually grew, eventually giving rise to the Heart Demon n.
The Heart Demon n used this Winged n member, who had been swayed by its influence, to climb the ranks within the Winged n until it became the leader of all Winged n members, second only to the mother.
At this point, under the influence of the Heart Demon n, the Winged n member finally revealed its intentions—it actually aimed to destroy the mother!
As for the details of how this unfolded, the Heart Demon n didn''t borate. But Su Chen knew that the scene must have been extremely spectacr.
Ultimately, this Winged n member, swayed by the Heart Demon n, failed in its uprising, leading to a significant decrease in the Winged n''s numbers. It was during this vulnerable period that the Winged n found itself embroiled in a war with the Protoss. To protect themselves, the mother directed the remaining Winged n members to collide with an impending Neutron Star, intending to take the Protoss down with them.
This terrified the Protoss, who immediately ceased the war, giving the Winged n a chance to recover gradually.
"So, how did you manage to get from the Winged n''s mother to Earth?" This was the part Su Chen found most puzzling. The Winged n''s mother was countless light-years away from Earth, and a Heart Demon n member, devoid of any abilities once separated from intelligent life, should have had no means to make such a journey.Speaking of this matter, the Heart Demon n seemed puzzled as well. "Ever since that Winged n was discovered and eradicated by our mother, I lost all sense. When I woke up, I found myself inside a separate Psychic space. If it weren''t for the ability to share knowledge with other Heart Demon n members, I might have gone insane. Then, Du Jing appeared there, and I pretended to be a Heart Demon n born of Du Jing. You know the rest."
Su Chen furrowed his brow. Psychic power confirmed that the Heart Demon n wasn''t lying, but how it had arrived here was still a question mark.
Just then, Yun Ru''s voice rang out, "Commander, I remember something."
"What is it?"
If Yun Ru deemed something worthy of mention, it surely held significance.
"Among the technologies we obtained from the Qiluo Civilization, there were some experimental data mixed in. There was one particr experiment - the random selection and capture of a unique race from across the universe. However, this experiment ended in failure at the time. Later on, it seems this experiment was discovered by a Psychic technology civilization that emerged on Earth. They continued the experiment."
"So, you''re suggesting that this Heart Demon n was brought here identally by that civilization?"
Su Chen recalled the Psychic space he had discovered, not just with Du Jing''s presence, but also a civilization solely focused on Psychic technology, albeit one that had self-destructed long ago.
"Without any surprises, that''s the most likely possibility."
Su Chen found this somewhat astonishing. Psychic technologybined with spatial technology had somehow achieved this?
The presence of the Heart Demon n had barely received an exnation, but Su Chen didn''t intend to reveal this information to the Heart Demon n just yet. He still had one more question.
"How did you turn Du Jing into a Winged n, and why were you able tomand the Winged n leader?"
"Don''t forget, I am a Heart Demon n born of the Winged n. Over such a long period, my understanding of the Winged n goes beyond that of the mother. As formanding the Winged n, it''s simple. You just need to make it believe that your existence is superior to its own."
"The Winged n is a race with a clear hierarchy. Faced with higher-ranking Winged n members, any Winged n individual has only one duty: to obey orders. I transformed Du Jing''s body into that of a higher-ranking Winged n member. The Ninth-Tier Winged n member from the Small Gxy will naturally follow my instructions."
Su Chen nodded. It appeared that this Heart Demon n before him would be his best ally against the Winged n. However, an uncontroble Heart Demon n was still somewhat problematic, and expecting it to submit willingly was likely a pipe dream.
With this in mind, Su Chen said, "Do you know about the Protoss?"
"Of course, the Protoss are a well-known race in the universe, individually strong, and their technology is top-notch. Why do you ask? Are you trying to gather information about the Protoss from me? I''m willing to provide information, but I require my freedom!"
Su Chen didn''t respond directly. Instead, he had Su Yi bring Yuan Yizhong and Les over.
"Look, I''ve found something - a lone Heart Demon n! We can try to capture it; a Heart Demon n can provide a significant amount of energy, and they''re rich in nutrition, incredibly delicious! But Heart Demon n aren''t easy to deal with; let''s slowly approach it from behind, making sure not to make any noise."
"Hey, I''ve got it! It''s struggling fiercely! Let''s cut off its head, and the rest of its body parts can be consumed raw. Its protein content is six times that of beef. Of course, if time permits, we can roast it first; it''ll be even more delicious."
"Yeah, they have a crispy texture, just like chicken." (To be continued...)
