Alien Knights

Looking at the words on the bronze medal, Todd took two steps back in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice: "This is her birthplace..."

Meredith waved her wings, blowing away the dry cloth and dust covering the cultivation tank, revealing the contents inside.

One after another corpses were floating in the container, some looked like human beings, and some looked like a lump of meat at all.

"This is one of the three elders—Iliad's early laboratory." Meredith walked to a sink, looked at the corpse of a two-year-old baby girl inside, and said in a deep voice: "The technology of human body replication, Although it was published a long time ago, many of the books introducing its principles have been lost, and the rest are scattered in the underground palaces of the Presbyterian Church."

"Decades ago, Eleanor, one of the three elders, found a note on human body replication from a xenogeneic scholar and showed it to Iliad. In exchange, she proposed that if Iliad De can complete the human body copying ceremony in the book, and Eleanor promises to give this notebook to the other party."

"The Alien Alliance Association was stuck on the key link of resurrecting the leader. Some of the content in this book explained and made up for many doubts in the resurrection ceremony, so for the association at that time, it was undoubtedly a timely help. Yili Yade naturally accepted the deal."

Todd seized on a key point of the matter and asked: "What can Eleanor get in this deal?"

Meredith tapped the surface of the crystal cultivation tank with her crow feather, and said softly, "What Eleanor wants...is this."

Todd was taken aback: "She wants Rachel?"

"As one of the three elders, Eleanor is already at the peak of all elders in terms of strength and power. She only cares about one thing, and that is eternal life."

"How to avoid the scythe of death and stop the ravages of time has become her top priority. The ritual of human body replication gave her an inspiration. If, using a small part of the body, I can replicate an identical self, Then when the body is aging, the organs of the clone can be taken and replaced, and even the resurrection ceremony can be used to replace the body, so as to achieve the goal of immortality."

Todd's lips turned white, and his fingertips trembled uncontrollably: "So, Rachel is actually a copy of Eleanor. After she is born, her organs may be removed at any time, and her body may even be lost?!"

"Iliad, who hoped to revive the alien leader, naturally didn't want to see this happen, so after creating a copy of Eleanor, that is, Rachel, he injected toxins into her body, making that time Rachel suffered severe rejection and became a failed product."

"Eleanor gave up the human body cloning plan, and asked Eliard to erase Rachel, the "failed" copy. But the latter did not do so, but lied that he needed to continue to observe the state of the copy, maybe he could Find a solution to the problem. And so, Rachel survived."

Todd covered his forehead with his hands, and said distressedly: "After that, Rachel's only friend, Mia Evandelin, chose to commit suicide in order to avoid Eleanor's persecution. As punishment, Eleanor Put Rachel's soul into Mia's body, and let her live in pain and guilt forever... Everything she has experienced is like living in hell every day."

Sitting on the stone steps, Todd looked at the experimental equipment and crystal vessels in the room, and sighed deeply: "Did you never think about getting rid of Eleanor?"

"Get rid of her?"

Meredith turned her head and looked at Todd amusedly: "Do you think defeating her is an easy thing?"

Todd was a little surprised: "Even you, can't defeat her?"

"I was able to escape from her hands unharmed, but if there is a fight, the outcome is really hard to say. Besides, even if Eleanor is removed, there will still be a second or third Eleanor in the elders. Ambitious It's never been uncommon for families and power grabbers."

Todd asked strangely: "Eleanor is also a tyrant?"

"No, but her special ability makes her more difficult than the tyrant."

"What kind of ability?"

"Before explaining Eleanor's abilities, let me ask you first, do you know the difference between genetic abilities and non-inherited abilities?"

Todd nodded: "I've heard that non-genetic abilities can be transmitted through water sources, food, etc., while genetic abilities can only be passed on from parents to children."

"Correct. Moreover, compared with non-genetic abilities, genetic abilities generally have longer-lasting effects and greater destructive power...such as dimension cutting, mind shock, gravity blasting, etc..."

Meredith covered her lower abdomen with one hand, and said slowly: "Eleanor is called the "Mother Goddess" precisely because her supernatural powers come from a special organ in her body—the womb. She can Use the interbreeding with powerful alien species to copy and acquire their genetic abilities."

Looking at the dumbfounded Todd, Meredith shook her head and said: "Think about it, how many alien species with genetic abilities have been reduced to A reproductive machine..."

Todd's face was full of disbelief: "You mean, this mother goddess can copy and use those genetic abilities, so how many abilities does she have now?"

"No one knows, so I said that the existence of this guy is more troublesome than those tyrants."

Meredith patted the dust off her body: "I've finished explaining what needs to be explained, do you still want to see Rachel now?"

Todd stood up, took a long breath, and said to Meredith: "What you told me just now will only strengthen my determination to see her."

Meredith smiled and clapped her hands. As she walked towards the door, she said, "Although I knew you would say such an answer, it was really a relief to actually hear it."

Following behind the woman, Todd, who returned to the underground passage, asked, "So, where is Rachel?"

"She got into trouble and is now in jail..." Meredith saw Todd's anxious look, and said with a smile: "But you don't have to worry too much, that child is a smart person, and he knows exactly what to do here. At such a time, what can you say to save your life?"

Moving forward along the aisle, Meredith said as she walked, "But before we save her, we have to meet someone first."

An hour later, Todd, wearing a black robe and covering his face with a hood, stood in a huge room.

Dozens of rows of bookshelves filled this place to the brim, and all kinds of experimental equipment were everywhere.

Meredith, who was wearing a crow mask, looked at an old man with a beard dragging the floor, with a half-smile.

The latter, however, focused on Todd.

"Who is he?" The old man asked Meredith, "Just like you, he has the aura of the land of shadows."

Meredith looked back at Todd: "He is a friend of mine and an ally of the alien race. In short...Iliad, he is a person who can be trusted."

The old man named Iliad looked away, looked at Meredith and said in a low voice: "As the grand master of the Legion of Discord, you haven't come back for several years... Excuse me, old man, have you given up on you? is your father?"

Meredith put away her smile and her eyes slowly turned cold: "Iliad, you are asking the right question. I came back this time just to talk to you about my father—Sutherland."
