Through the book: The villain’s son’s stand-in

The dense nebula and mist enveloped the entire sea of ​​​​stars, hiding all the rapids and dark pits. The meteorites with scorching tails rushed into them, only ripples appeared in that small area, and nothing happened again.

It's like falling into a dead sea, unable to blend in or break away. It slowly becomes a tiny brick in this land of death, blocking everything outside.

Through the layers of mist shimmering with tiny lights, there are tall buildings, mecha starships constantly passing through the sky, and the shadows of buildings faintly emerging above the clouds, forming another dreamy world.

Who would have thought that behind such an area full of dangerous black hole traps and densely populated by strange beasts, there would actually be clusters of highly developed technological planets.

The floating city located above the star cluster is the stars above the stars, distant and mysterious.

In addition to the current powerful class of the Tool Clan living on it, it is said that there is also an ancestor who has lived for tens of thousands of years.

The biggest dream of all omnics in this life is to enter the floating city and become a resident of the floating city.

But all omnics can only live in the middle and outer areas throughout their lives, and the vast area that occupies two-thirds of the floating city belongs to the center of the floating city.

It is also known as the Yunding Floating City.

And this area surrounded by clouds, mountains and fog all year round is also the residence of the clan leader.

Unlike outside speculation about the accumulation of cutting-edge technology, this area is primitive and retro.

On the black and yellow fertile land are antique pavilions and pavilions. Looking from a distance, you can see forest-like palaces located among them.

The meandering river surrounds this area like a moat, completely separating the mud from the hard slate floors in the middle and outer areas.

In the Genting Library, ancient solid wood bookshelves are lined with paper books wrapped in special oil leather, and a complete set of sandalwood furniture is carved with precise patterns.

A beautiful figure with long hair bent her back slightly, and her silver hair was tied up by a thin crimson ribbon. She was concentrating on using a brush to... draw talismans.

"Tap Tap!"

Neat footsteps were getting closer and closer, and a tall figure stopped in front of the table.

He made no sound or disturbed the person in front of him with his slightly jerky movements, and stood aside quietly, trying to keep his breathing to a minimum.

"Pah." The writing brush stained with red ink was placed on the pen holder, and a trace of doubt flashed in the silver-grey red phoenix eyes: "Do you have anything to do with me?"

The tall man respectfully placed his right hand on his chest, bowed his head and saluted: "Young Patriarch, the Patriarch is looking for you."

"Place?"

"The river beach on the south bank of the Central Garden." The tall man replied meticulously.

"..."

"Xiaoba, can you still hold up during training?"

Xiao Qi did not leave immediately, but sat back on the solid wood seat, looking up and down at the scars on his arms and face, and asked Youyou.

Xiaoba raised his face, which was as sharp as an axe, looked directly at him with his brown-grey eyes, and nodded firmly:

"I am your most loyal guardian, but what happened three years ago taught me that loyalty is not enough. I also need the power to protect you. High-intensity training is the fastest way to improve your strength."

Hearing this, Xiao Qi took a deep breath, her eyes flashed, and then she quickly stood up and knocked him on the head.

As if Xiaoba had done something wrong, he quickly knelt down on one knee, bowed his head and apologized: "Please punish me, Young Chief."

Seeing this, Xiao Qi let out a long breath from his nose again, and a clear and pleasant voice reached Xiao Ba's ears.

"Xiaoba, don't talk to the clan leader. She is used to brainwashing you. If you listen to her, you will still help her count the money after being sold."

Xiao Qi rarely said a long string of words, but staring at Xiao Ba's still unwavering head spinning, he felt a deep helplessness.

"I understand, Master." Xiao Ba's voice was low, a magnetic voice that Gu Pan liked, but in Xiao Qi's ears, it was indeed the representative sound of stubbornness.

It has only been three years, and Xiaoba has learned the team leader's accent to a 100% degree. If he stays for a few more years, Gu Pan may not be able to recognize who he is even if he sees him again.

"If you can't do it, there's no need to promise me. Our relationship is not mandatory."

Xiao Qi opened his lips slightly, and the hair on his forehead fell between his delicate eyebrows, making his eyes look as indifferent as inorganic matter.

"I can do it."

Xiaoba's throat was choked, his back bent a few degrees again, veins popped out on the back of his hands, and he solemnly made a promise: "I will definitely do it."

Although he tried hard to restrain his body from shaking, Xiao Qi could still feel his fear and guilt.

These two emotions have been mixed together since three years ago, like wine that becomes purer and purer. It has long lost its flavor, but once it enters the throat, it has endless stamina.

He knew that Xiaoba fell into endless self-blame after the operation failed.

So since then, I have suffered from a severe phobia of lack of firepower.

Even with his strength, he could be crushed to death with just a slight squeeze, but Xiaoba still protected him like the dying little cub on the operating table before, not letting danger get close to him.

They have a past friendship and a common family, so Xiao Qi still can't bear to punish him.

"You go to training."

He crumpled the ghostly drawing on the table into a ball, threw it into the shredder below, turned off the green plastic night light, and turned around to leave.

It wasn't until Xiao Qi's footsteps went away that Xiao Ba stood up with his head lowered.

Walking in the corridor with the faint scent of sandalwood, he had a lot of thoughts.

Of course he knew that the patriarch was brainwashing him.

As a transformed omnic whose powers are granted through empathy, he is weaker than a natural omnic.

But because of the powerful ability of the young patriarch, he was the one who came after him.

But what if Xiao Qi is willing to transform an already excellent Omnic in the same way?

I'm afraid he can't even flatter him.

The strong sense of uneasiness made him so afraid that he would fall behind others, so he trained desperately just to stay with him for a long time.

Therefore, even though the patriarch's brainwashing techniques were so retarded and stupid, to his ears, it was indeed a beautiful dream weaved for him.

He is the only guardian currently recognized by the Young Patriarch.

Loyalty, strength and fearlessness are synonymous with him.

To charge into battle for him and live to death for him is an eternal promise that he will use his infinite life to fulfill.
