But unfortunately, he did not show his due value and he failed.

The gate of the base was tightly closed. The cold wind and snow buried the doorway, covering a quarter of the entrance. It seemed like a dusty secluded place where no one was allowed to enter.

In the rustling snow, Shile lowered his eyes in self-mockery and sarcasm.

"Dongqing, please go. The base does not allow losers to enter. Now I am a discarded pawn."

Holly looked at the door in front of him stubbornly. The cold wind hit his cheeks and froze on his eyelashes, forming a layer of frost. His exhaled breath turned into a white mist, which dissipated in the air.

She pulled Shile closer to her: "You are not abandoned. At least I have not given up on you. In the hell of the wicked, just rely on me for now."

Shile's broken body leaned against Dongqing, and he caught a glimpse of the frost condensed on her eyelashes.

"Is this mercy? I don't think I need it."

Holly sneered: "Pity? Do you think I have such emotions? Don't put those bad things on me, I just don't want to add trouble to my mission."

Looking towards the tightly closed door, Dongqing knew that someone was watching them from inside, as if examining an object or watching a messy drama.

"Although the mission failed, it is not without any gains. My Lord, don't you want to know why we have failed so many times?"

Holly was gambling, gambling that the man high above would not allow accidents to happen, gambling on his ambition to control everything.

"squeak--"

The heavy door slowly rose, shaking off the ice and snow on the ground, revealing a cold metal passage.

Two figures disappeared into the vast snowfield, and they walked inside along the glowing passage. Their heavy footsteps echoed in the silent passage.

Soon, they arrived at an empty platform.

The passage behind him suddenly closed, leaving only an enclosed space and a robotic arm appearing on the wall.

The mechanical arm pulled the two people apart, and the partition wall rose. Dongqing looked in the direction of Lost Joy, as if there was something in the depths of his eyes. He looked again, but found that there was chaos inside and there was nothing.

Shile didn't know why, but when the wall rose at the last moment, he looked at Dongqing, but ultimately remained silent.

The partition wall rose up, and unlike the previous mechanical sounds, a hoarse female voice read out the past information of the two people, without any emotion.

"Dongqing, who has a talent for emotional control, comes from a single-parent family and is raised by her mother. She relies on emotional control to mingle in various places. Eventually, she was discovered by the interstellar law enforcement agency for abusing her talent and arbitrarily modifying other people's emotions. She was eventually imprisoned and later released on bail."

"Oh, what a boring experience. You should be thankful that you have a talent of immeasurable value, otherwise you would have no chance of resurrection at all."

The woman's voice sounded again: "You have enjoyed so many benefits, but now your mission has failed. Be prepared to accept the punishment. This is all you are worth."

Dongqing frowned. "It's not a complete failure. We brought back valuable information."

"stop."

A hoarse voice interrupted Dong Qing's words and sneered: "What do you want to say? Fang Zhixin's actions that seemed to be precognitive? Their understanding of the Space-Time Demon God? Or the matter of the teleportation scroll being blocked?"

The cold words made Dongqing feel like he was falling into an ice cellar. They all knew that their information was worthless.

The woman outside continued, "Don't underestimate Tianquan, the situation on Blue Star is no secret, and Fang Zhixin will be here soon, right?

The reason why I let you in, besides reclaiming your talents, is to lure her into the game. It is better to kill the uncontrollable factors in time."

Dongqing's expression suddenly changed, and he lowered his voice and asked, "What do you mean by recycling talents? Isn't this the base for resurrection and treatment?"

"Resurrection treatment? Hahahaha." The hoarse voice laughed sarcastically, "What a naive idea. How do you think you were resurrected?"

Dongqing clenched her fingers and said, "Pre-save the gene and soul copies. If something happens to someone, the previous mission points will be deducted, and the gene will be activated in the resurrection factory to construct the body, so that the person can be reborn."

"Oh, do you still think so now?"

Along with the words came the smell of gas in the room, which was so pungent and unpleasant that it made people feel nauseous.

Dong Qing's anxiety was completely exposed. She stretched out her hand and pressed on the cold wall: "What do you mean? If the mission fails, I will kill you. What do you want to do now?"

Without waiting for a response, a pungent smell quickly spread in the room. Dongqing felt his body gradually becoming weak, and he could no longer gather the strength in his body.

At the last second before she lost consciousness, she heard the woman's chilling words.

"After the talents are recovered... there should be two more bases for cognitive and emotional changes."

Dongqing’s last glance was towards the partition wall. When her consciousness disappeared, she seemed to have returned to the past.

The woman whose face could not be seen clearly said something to her firmly, and she should remember it.

What is...

"Holly, you have to remember that emotions are superfluous. In this world, you only need to love yourself."

But what is love...

Holly's mother was a strong-willed person. She made a mistake and gave her emotions away, but she still gave birth to Holly.

Perhaps she believes that her own sentimentality and closed cognition have caused her current disaster, so Dongqing's mother pays great attention to broadening her horizons.

She didn't want Dongqing to follow the same path as her, where she was cheated out of everything by a few sweet words. In her opinion, all living beings are so insignificant that all other emotions are redundant. Only herself is the most important.

If you want to move up in this complex society, you must rely not only on hard work but also on conscience.

After learning that Holly's talent was emotional control, Holly's mother made a decision to use this talent to move forward and climb up.

But in the end it failed.

Holly's mother did not regret it. She strengthened the kindness of others in order to get a chance to prove herself. She did not let Holly control her emotions on a large scale, nor did she transfer her emotions for other people to herself.

In her opinion, living by relying on other people's emotions is really stupid, and only being strong yourself is real.

"I just failed. Unfortunately, I used your talent against my conscience to enhance others' good impression of us, but I didn't expect to be discovered and reported by my peers.

Little Holly, use your talent to survive, and then live according to your own ideas. My ideas seem to be quite unsuccessful..."

In the end, law enforcement agencies took Dongqing's mother away. She must have died, killed by the oppression of interests.

As Dongqing thought about this, his heart began to ache dully. A tear slid from the corner of his eye and hit the ground, leaving a stain.

"Because of the pain, he used his talent to block his emotions, and finally ended up working for others. It seems that the luck of this mother and son... is not very good."

The woman who controls everything in the outside world wears a black veil. Her name is Shan Ke. She is silent for a moment and looks at the two jars below with empty eyes.

It's a jar and it's also a room.
