Alien Knights

Without waiting for Todd to react, Eleanor returned to the sofa, crossed her legs and began to admire the uncertain look on the other person's face.

Todd thought for a moment and said, "How do I know what you are saying is not a lie?"

Eleanor held her chin with her right hand and said slowly: "I know you won't believe me, so let me tell you about the undead from beginning to end."

Eleanor first asked Todd a question: "Do you know the average lifespan of the aliens in the Presbyterian Church?"

Todd shook his head.

Eleanor gave him a surprising answer: "Twenty-nine."

Eleanor continued: "Although the alien species has superpowers, its lifespan is also shortened by the superpowers. For example, the alien species with debilitating powers will gradually shrink and rot; the alien species with the breath of fire will eventually die of spontaneous combustion; The violent alien species will die from bursting of blood vessels all over its body..."

Eleanor said this and bowed slightly to Todd: "Thank you for your wisdom. Now we know that there is something called super bacteria in the alien body, which will slowly poison the alien body and finally terminate the alien life... But before you, the Presbyterian Church spent hundreds of years without finding a way to extend the life span of the alien species. We always thought it was a curse on the alien species."

"So, in the past, the Elders Council tried many methods to break this curse and extend the life of the alien race."

"For example, Eliade, he has been working on ways to repair the body. Specifically, he first collects a part of the tissue from the alien body, cultivates it, and allows this part of the tissue to grow into a complete body. When the alien's organs fail or are poisoned, If the situation arises, the organs can be removed from the cultured body and used instead, thus extending the life of the alien species indefinitely."

Eleanor stared into Todd's eyes, smiled and said, "Sounds familiar, right? That's how your little lover, my little puppet, Rachel, was born."

Todd said in a deep voice: "Rachel has never been your puppet, she has a complete soul."

Eleanor said noncommittally: "Rachel comes from my body. She is actually me, or maybe a part of me."

Todd suppressed the anger in his heart: "I don't want to discuss this with you. Let's continue talking about the undead."

Eleanor shook her head: "Then let's talk about me. In order to extend the life span of heterogeneous species, I promoted the method of optimal reproduction."

Todd gritted his teeth and asked, "Preferred fertility?"

Eleanor said: "I have always believed that there are advantages and disadvantages of human races among alien species. Some alien species can survive for a long time, while some will die before they reach adulthood."

"So, I asked people to classify and screen the heterogeneous species according to age, gender, and type of superpower, and select some outstanding human races for pairing and breeding to see whether this can extend the life span of the heterogeneous group..."

Todd said sarcastically: "The pairing and breeding you talk about are more like the practices of livestock."

There was no look of shame or annoyance on Eleanor's face: "I know there may be people in your ears who keep questioning what I have done, but I never think that I have done anything wrong. When a group has reached the point of life and death, At the edge of the world, love, family affection and sympathy will become the last push for the destruction of this ethnic group. Only by abandoning all moral judgment can we survive in the destruction."

Eleanor said this and winked at Todd: "If I had met you at that time and knew that you had the ability to save aliens, I would have knelt down in front of you without hesitation and tried every means to please you. Even if you let me become a slave in your bed, I won't complain at all."

Meredith, who couldn't stand listening anymore, interrupted: "Just like countless men who have been sucked dry by you..."

A sharp light flashed in Eleanor's eyes, but she said with a smile: "My Lord, don't listen to those rumors. I have more enemies than the feathers on your body."

Todd rubbed his forehead: "Continue talking about the undead."

Eleanor said: "After talking about Eliade and I, there is another person, Elder Clarence..."

Eleanor tilted her head and looked at Todd and asked, "You remember Clarence, right? That arrogant man?"

Todd thought about it for a while and finally remembered the name.

Clarence, one of the three elders of the Presbyterian Church and the holder of the soul space ability, once tried to kidnap Todd and eventually died at the hands of Todd in the Kingdom of Shadows.

"Klaren placed his hope of saving the alien species on Sutherland's legacy. This medicinal powder made from Sutherland's ashes can effectively inhibit the duration of the alien species' onset, thereby allowing the alien species to live longer, but He has a fatal flaw..."

"The alien species that inhale Sutherland's heritage are called successors. They have only two fates. One, continue to ingest Sutherland's heritage to extend their lives; two, stop ingesting and go crazy and become bloodthirsty monsters."

"Klaren believes that successors are the hope for the continuation of alien life. Only by becoming an inheritor can the curse in the alien body be suppressed."

"However, Eliad and I do not agree with his point of view. The successor can only end up becoming a mindless monster. This path is just replacing one curse with another."

"However, Theodore, the leader of the Relief Society at the time, supported Clarence's view. He believed that the successor could continue the life of the alien species, but the key was how to control the harm of the Sutherland legacy's backlash."

"After a series of experiments, Theodore found that in the alien species with weak vitality and poor constitution, the same dose of Sutherland's heritage will not cause backlash. The inoculated person can support it for a longer period of time before turning into a monster. time."

"Theodore speculates that the vitality of the alien species is the most critical factor in inducing mutations in the successors. If the vitality of the alien species can be reduced to a certain level, then Sutherland's curse will never be triggered."

Todd began to think about Eleanor's words.

The short lifespan of alien species is caused by the abnormal bacteria in their bodies that continuously damage human body functions.

As an archaea, Sutherland bacteria can wrap heterogeneous bacteria in their cell membranes and digest the toxins produced by the latter, thereby extending the lifespan of heterogeneous species.

However, the reproduction conditions of Sutherland bacteria are very harsh. It is thermophilic and anaerobic. It is generally active near volcanic craters and cannot reproduce in the human body. However, the continuous reproduction of supernatural bacteria will eventually break the numerical balance with the Sutherland archaea, eventually triggering a backlash by the Sutherland bacteria, and ultimately turning the host into a monster.

Different from Todd's idea of ​​cultivating Sutherland bacteria on a large scale, Theodore's original idea was to reduce the vital functions of the human body, so as to slow down the reproduction rate of heterogeneous bacteria in heterogeneous bodies, so that the bacterial balance would not be destroyed. .

The idea is correct, but the method is very dangerous.
