Technological practice: leading the human race to the stars

Chapter 66 The Broken Truth

The mission finally came to an end, and the training camp arranged a rare half-month vacation for the trainees. All new trainees who participated in the emergency mission will be exempted from the pressure of assessment this month.

Yuanze declined everyone's invitation and walked aimlessly on the newly built road. That night, the part of the truth that Li Haisheng revealed to him made him feel unbearable and heartbroken.

The afterglow of the setting sun gently sprinkled on the road, stretching his shadow long, as if to tear his heart apart. He walked slowly, his thoughts flowing with his steps, immersed in an indescribable pain.

He slowly moved to the building that Li Haisheng had just built, which was built on the site of the half-built building.

Its outline gradually emerged in the dusk, like a pen used by a giant.

The new building seems to rise from the ruins of a half-broken building, and its section is still tilted and smooth. The original irregular protrusions have been cleverly integrated into the new design, like a pen tip writing a new story in the clouds, or telling about past experiences.

Yuan Ze swiped the ID card that Li Haisheng gave him. He could freely enter and exit any part of the building. He took the elevator directly to the second top floor, where there was a whole floor of professional and advanced medical equipment. In this spacious space, many highly skilled doctors were busy, but they only provided services to three people - Yuan Chong, Yuan Tai and Mei Jianan.

Yuanze disinfected his entire body, put on sterile clothing, and walked to the door of a ward.

Looking in from the window, Yuanze's parents were lying on the hospital beds, with all kinds of tubes inserted into their bodies to maintain their vital signs. The densely packed instruments around them displayed various values ​​at all times, and only the occasional ticking sound could be heard.

"Alas, fortunately your master and Elder Yang had the foresight to allow your family members to become Source Warriors, otherwise this time you would be in great danger. This is a blessing in disguise..."

Astra comforted Yuanze, but was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say next.

"You're right, let's go see my brother."

Yuanze's younger brother was in a nearby ward, and he was not seriously ill.

Yuanze pushed open the door of the ward, and a faint smell of disinfectant hit him. The ward was so quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard. The curtains were half-drawn, and the afternoon sun shone through the clouds, sprinkling on the white sheets.

Yuanze's brother sat on the bed, staring blankly ahead. His face was pale, as if all the life had been taken away, and his black hair had lost its luster and hung messily in front of his forehead. His hands rested limply on the bed, and each finger was bent, as if he was trying to grab something that had already left.

There was a hint of confusion and uneasiness in his eyes. When Yuanze walked into the ward, his eyes turned slightly, as if he wanted to find a trace of familiarity from Yuanze, but in the end he was disappointed and bewildered.

Yuanze walked to his brother's bedside and gently called his name. His brother slowly turned his head and looked at Yuanze, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. He seemed to be trying hard to recall who the person in front of him was, but the door of memory was tightly closed, making it impossible for him to cross.

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but he couldn't speak.

Yuan Ze shook his head and prepared to push the door and leave. Just as his master said, Yuan Tai's brain was severely damaged, his mental state was very poor, and he had lost almost all his memories.

"I'm afraid you'll act impulsively after knowing the truth."

As soon as Yuanze opened the door, he saw his master. He closed the door gently, without saying a word, and followed his master silently to a secret room. He seemed to have something to say to him.

"But think about it, you're already grown up, I can't hide it from you anymore. Do you still remember that housekeeper Liu?"

"remember."

"He betrayed your family, or he was never one of Old Yang's men. Li Weiming instructed him to revoke Old Yang's original protection of your family and expel them from that house. Then came this overwhelming beast tide."

Li Haisheng looked at Yuanze's silence, and he couldn't help but feel helpless. He continued, "You should know that Butler Liu followed Mr. Yang for nearly twenty years, but when Mr. Yang passed away, his so-called loyalty disappeared."

"I can understand. The real culprit is still Li Weiming. If we get rid of him, everything will be fine." Yuanze shook his head, then nodded. It seemed that even if he used both kindness and force, he still could not change the despicable nature of human beings.

"It's hard for your parents and brother to get well, and your sister also disappeared that day. You have to be mentally prepared for this." Li Haisheng saw Yuanze clench his fists, his nails digging into his flesh, but he was still thinking about the problem calmly, so he continued, "It's not that simple. On the day when Elder Yang died to protect you, he was killed by Elder Li Songming, and Steward Liu is now working for Li Haiming, so you have to face the entire Li family."

"so……"

Yuanze loosened his hand and understood his master's intention. His master was preparing for a rainy day and planning for things further ahead.

"I cut off a piece of the Li family, which also weakened their strength. If you and the Li family really have trouble in the future, I will also leave a way out for my family."

Li Haisheng smiled bitterly: "Although the Li family is the weakest among the four major families, they will definitely not sit idly by and wait for themselves to be eaten away."

"Will they attack me?"

"Not for now. You are just having a grudge against Li Weiming. Given Li Weiming's character, he will not favor any heir. In that case, Li Weiming will not be able to use too much family power."

"I did hear that Li Haiming is interested in marrying into the Ji family. After all, both families have suffered heavy losses during this period."

"Who will be the two sides?" Yuan Ze thought of a lingering figure and asked anxiously.

"How do we know? Both sides have too many candidates to choose from. And even though the Ji family was badly hurt this time, it is still the strongest family. I guess the Li family will give a girl as a dowry."

"That's good."

Yuanze let out a long sigh, and his heart was relieved a little.

"But I want to tell you that I suspect that the martial arts school and the strange beasts are colluding with each other during this beast tide."

"What!? Is there any evidence?!"

Yuanze suddenly jumped up from his chair, the shock on his face was hard to hide. His jaw seemed to have lost control and could not close for a long time.

"Not to mention you, even I find it hard to believe this speculation. But I do have this piece of information: almost all the people who were related to the disappearance case died in this beast tide, or their whereabouts are unknown."

"How could this be? This involves at least millions of people..." Yuanze's body froze, and he fell onto the chair due to gravity, and he didn't recover for a long time.

"When you gave me the blue vial, which was the source potion, I told you that as long as human nature exists, human beings will never be united. But this time, even I underestimated the horror of human nature."

"I would rather believe that this is a coincidence. I don't think they can do something so cruel. Even the city lord of S01 was sacrificed this time. If someone really did it on purpose, that man would never let them go." Li Haisheng turned around and added.

"I think so too. After all, every time there is a super-large beast tide, there will be millions or even tens of millions of casualties." Yuan Ze recovered and agreed with what Li Haisheng added later.

"Let's talk about your parents. I have something for you to do."

"what's up?"

"Old Yang helped you get a fake identity before. I hope you can use this identity to get in touch with the Kong family. They can provide scarce items to help your family recover."
