Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

June 23, 2126.

At this time, seventy days had passed since the incident on the Udora.

During this period, the plague doctor's investigation of Suo Keyang's ruins opened the channel linking the physical universe and the different space. This is also the first time since Sui Bian came to power, human beings have mastered the way to open the different space.

Therefore, Leon, the governor of the Primarch of the Temple sector, mobilized the elite of the Dark Angels Legion and UNSC to station in Sokoyang for a long time, making this backward colony that was originally a fringe area extremely rich in a very short period of time. The manpower and material resources, which made it unknown, the colonists who got the news also added Suokoyang to the priority colonization intention.

Among the information held by Umbrella's senior management is that the company rescued the Hades and Persephone, who had been missing for thousands of years, from the chaotic realm of the different space.

Because Persephone was sealed by a powerful curse, the company secretly transferred the Queen of Hades and Hades, who had been in a weak state, to the shield of Terra in the solar system, and Sui Bian personally lifted the powerful curse.

After a comprehensive inspection by the expert plague doctor, it can be known that the physical body and spiritual energy of Persephone, Queen of the Underworld, have no signs of corruption or degeneration.

However, Hades, the king of the underworld, who was suspected of being tortured for thousands of years, suffered severe physical and spiritual injuries, and could not heal his blood, let alone return to his peak. According to the plague doctor, Hades was forcibly taken away The vast majority of psychic power.

After more than ten days of observation, until today, the Pluto couple woke up one after another, and finally regained consciousness completely, and could accept the interrogation by Umbrella's side.

…

The underground base of the new headquarters building.

In an interrogation room on the sixth basement floor, Hades and Persephone, who had changed into blue and white hospital gowns, sat on the side of the metal table against the wall.

The two gods waited silently, and their emotions remained stable. After all, they are not stupid, and they can sense that a human being is constantly releasing psychic suppression that suffocates them. Any drastic action that caused a misunderstanding, presumably that human would kill them without hesitation.

Moreover, they all know that Artemis seems to have reached some kind of in-depth cooperation with humans, so they are also willing to cooperate with Umbrella.

It didn't take long.

Swipe~---.

The opening of the interrogation room gate broke the quiet and oppressive atmosphere.

It was Artemis who changed into a rare black formal suit and walked into the interrogation room, and when the gate was closed again to complete the blockade, she also sat down in front of her uncle and aunt.

Then with a smile on his face, he took the initiative to ask: Uncle, sister, how do you feel? Are you still used to staying here?

It's okay. Persephone nodded expressionlessly.

Artemis... Hades said with a serious face: What happened during our absence? What happened to Zeus and Poseidon? And... you and human beings, especially those who continue to What is the relationship between the humans who released the coercion?

Uncle, the current situation is a bit special. Artemis still smiled and said: The earth today, and even a vast and boundless universe are ruled by humans, and the era of the gods has long passed, so...

Please answer my questions first. When my boss and I know everything you know, I will naturally explain your doubts. If you don't cooperate...Uncle, with your wisdom, you should be able to predict what will happen, yes Bar.

... Hades first stared at Artemis closely, trying to detect, or detect emotional fluctuations, and confirmed that what the niece of him said was true, plus the human (Sui Bian) Existence, finally opened the mouth and said:

Okay, what do you want to know?

Thank you, Uncle. Artemis secretly breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that Hades would no longer be as wise and stable as before, so she would refuse to cooperate. After all, Hades and Persephone were the only ones she had. loved ones.

Then, she continued: I want to know how my father was corrupted and depraved after he led the Olympus army into the different space, and why were you and Persephone trapped in a chaotic realm?

This... Hades made a look of reminiscence, organized his language, and then said slowly to Artemis:

After we rushed into the different space...

Next, Hades, the survivor of the Olympus army, Artemis, and Sui Bian, who sat in the office to monitor and listen remotely, and who unintentionally released psychic coercion, finally Understand the detailed process of the fall of the Olympus army.

Ten thousand years ago, Zeus personally led more than half of the Olympian gods, demigods, and even many human heroes, plus hundreds of millions of Olympian servant soldiers, in the God Envoy Herme Step into a different space under the guidance of Si.

The first area to arrive was the Chaos Domain of the demon Samael, who created the Arcadia rebellion and the culprit who attacked Artemis.

There, the Olympian army was ambushed, and human heroes, demigods, and servant soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Many unsteady human heroes and demigods were corrupted by the soup poured by Samael, directly A counterattack against the army.

At the same time, Hermes, who was in charge of leading the way, finally tore off the disguise, revealing its true face.

It turns out that when the demons headed by Goregore Grace invaded the earth for the first time and confronted Ares, Samael had already corrupted Hermes secretly, and Artemis was successfully attacked by Samael , is inseparable from Hermes.

This is also why, when Rus fought against the gods alone more than ten years ago, Hermes, who was supposed to run the fastest, degenerated into a bloated, corrupt and dirty flesh.

As the brains of the demons, Samael first let the powerful and extremely reckless Gorefiend invade the earth to attract the energy of the gods, and then let it secretly investigate the temperament of the gods, and then used the corrupted Hermes to successfully attack the gods who could make The water of the full moon, Artemis is the greatest threat to demons.

Immediately afterwards, Zeus fell into a coma because of his beloved daughter, and after learning about the threat posed by different spaces to the earth, he eagerly listened to his corrupted son (Hermes) as Samuel predicted and planned. , leading the army into the realm of chaos that has long been trapped by Samael and many demons, so that when the entire army of the gods is wiped out, they can successfully achieve their goal of corrupting the earth.

However, Samael, Gorefiend Griffin, and many low-level demons seem to have miscalculated the strength of Zeus, Poseidon, Hades and other main gods.

Even though they were ambushed and the army suffered heavy casualties, Zeus and his brothers still easily defeated all the enemies, and even smashed and crushed the physical bodies of Samael and the Gorefiend in the different space of the devil's home field.

After entering this ambush, Samael and Gorefiend were forced to rebirth, and won thousands of years of peace for the earth and mankind.

but…

Without the guide Hermes, Zeus and the Olympus army can no longer withdraw from the different space, and returning to the real universe and the earth is even more idiotic.

Therefore, Zeus they had to continue to fight desperately in different spaces. During this period, the number of god servants dropped sharply, and more and more demigods and gods could not resist the temptation and voluntarily left the team to release their infinitely magnified desire.

Hades said that he didn't know how long it took, only the two brothers Zeus and Poseidon, and the three nieces, nephews and wives of Pallas, Apollo and Persephone were left beside him. Thousands of loyal servants of God.

Although whispers and temptations attract them all the time, they rely on their godheads and their own powerful strength to persevere, and try to kill and destroy demons and their chaotic domain as much as possible.

It's just that they' actions against the demons have attracted the attention of the evil gods.

The first to be unable to hold on, the first to fall was his nephew Apollo, who became a devout follower of Slaanesh, followed by his niece Pallas.

Hades, who was desperate and in a desperate situation, cooperated with Zeus and Poseidon to try to attack a group of evil gods, but the result was a disastrous failure. They couldn't even touch the evil gods, and they were killed by the demons and demons under the command of the evil gods. Prince beat.

As the last junior, Persephone was forced to fall into a coma because of looking directly at the evil god. In fact, this is also a blessing. The result is that the soul flies away.

However, fighting against the evil god is not a complete defeat. At least the attack of the big devil and the demon prince caused a turbulence and a storm in the different space, throwing Hades and Persephone back to the physical universe unexpectedly, landing on thousands of Sokoyan Desert years ago.

Since then, Hades and Persephone have been separated from Zeus and Poseidon, and the Pluto couple are also on Sokoyang, using their wisdom and divine power to assist the indigenous people of Sokoyang.

For nearly 800 earth years, the star field where Suokoyang was located continued to bear the aftermath of the storm in different spaces, and the Pluto couple also dispersed many Xiaoxiao.

The steles transported by the Udora and the various sculptures in the pyramid ruins are creatures from different spaces sealed together by Hades and Persephone, or parasitic artifacts by demons.

This makes the local aborigines of Soko Yang extremely respect and believe in the Pluto couple.

Eight hundred earth years later, Zeus and Poseidon revived and led a full, even expanded Olympian army to Sokoyan.

But the king of the gods and the king of the sea have already fallen, and their purpose of coming here is naturally to attract Hades and Persephone, and they are trying to recruit them in various ways.

It's a pity that this Pluto couple can't be corrupted at all, and, probably because they still think about the love of brothers and heirs deep in their hearts, Zeus finally robbed Hades of nearly 90% of his divine power (spiritual energy), and turned Po Earsphone was sealed in the crystal coffin, exiled and imprisoned together in the chaotic realm of a different space, and guarded by a great demon named Rosa.

After that, in order to commemorate the Pluto couple, the indigenous people of Sokoyan gathered the human and material resources of the entire race and spent nearly a hundred years building a pyramid at the place where the Pluto couple disappeared.

Not long after the completion of the pyramid, the inscriptions on how to get to the underworld appeared on the four load-bearing pillars. It may be Zeus or Poseidon deliberately, but with the knowledge of the indigenous people of Sokoyan, they cannot understand the inscriptions at all. meaning.

Thousands of years have passed since then, Suko Yang, who lost the protection of the Pluto couple, gradually declined in technology and culture, and encountered the invasion of the emerging Titanium Empire. In the end, the pyramid remains were buried in the desert, and the indigenous residents were also slaughtered by the Titanium Empire. Do it all, exterminate the genocide.

Until human beings destroy the Tipu Empire with lightning speed and love archeology and excavation, otherwise the pyramid remains will be buried in darkness forever.

After listening to his own uncle's narration, Artemis was silent for a long time, finally closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath to relieve his mind, and said in relief:

Thank you uncle for clarifying the confusion, allowing me and my boss to understand the past, and finally... thank you for your efforts.

As she spoke, Artemis lightly waved her left hand again, calling up the holographic control panel in the interrogation room, and showing her uncle who was behind for thousands of years, and her sister who was not good at words and expressions, who seemed to be indifferent to everything. The current situation and territory of human beings, especially the introduction of Astartes, the Primarch and the father of the Primarch, Sui Bian.

Regarding her relationship with Sui Bian, Artemis explained to Hades the relationship between employee and boss, not the way Hades guessed that she was threatened by Sui Bian and forced to work and die for humans.

at the same time.

Sui Bian in the office was lying on the office chair, looking at the ceiling and lost in thought for a while.

Hades narrated what happened to the Olympus army, and the plot was actually similar to what he had guessed. As for the great demon Rosa who was killed by Artemis with a thunderous blow, he had already consumed 200 points to plunder .

In fact, don't underestimate the 200 points. You must know that 200 points are enough to prove that Rosa is very strong. After all, the system adjusts the points needed to plunder according to Sui Bian's strength.

If it was a hundred years ago, Sui Bian guessed that the points needed to plunder the Great Demon Rosa would be at least 20,000 to 25,000 points.

After thinking about it, Sui Bian looked at Empress Bai from the corner of his eye and said, Tell Artemis for me, try to persuade Hades and Persephone to cooperate with the company temporarily, and talk about the pros and cons.

Good chairman. Bai Hou promised.

Sui Bian believes that Hades and Persephone will soon become reliable partners and comrades-in-arms of mankind.

On the one hand, it has not been corrupted for thousands of years, and its credit value can be described as a perfect score; on the other hand, Sui Bian can use his spiritual power to complete assimilation in a short period of time, completely making this Pluto couple a solid one. ally.

…

Tick! Tick!

Hey! Can you drive a car?

Dude! You must have been in a hurry to drive!

On the ground streets of the metropolitan area, two drivers took advantage of the gap of waiting for the red light to get out of their respective vehicles and start a verbal contest.

Ow! You two don't fight.

And a well-meaning elite driver, taking advantage of his height and strength, very smoothly separated and got closer. The two drivers seemed to want to do something, but in fact they only dared to talk.

Boom~...!

But at this moment, a violent muffled sound interrupted all the drivers' actions.
