Chapter 22: The Role of the Relic

The door opened, and there were three people standing in the room.

An old man, a middle-aged man with a mustache, and a little boy who looked to be only eleven or twelve years old.

Renault could only see from the map that there were three people in the room, but he didn't expect that there was a child among the three people, and the moment he saw the boy, he also froze slightly.

But he quickly came to his senses and said, "Who is Mr. Fernand?" ”

The old man replied, "I am." ”

"I guess it's you, too." Renault threw him a memory: "Letter from Mr. Barot." ”

Then he walked over and stood in front of the bearded middle-aged man: "Let me guess where this one came from." Just now my partner and I were out there killing about fifty of the personal guards from the San Diego family, and I don't think the family would just send a bunch of bodyguards. Since you want to talk about business, you have to have a person in charge...... Is your last name Bargo, Recan, or Santiago? ”

Santiago is just one of six family names in the Santiago family.

"Daniel Recan, born in Constant, is currently president of the McCann Foundation, and it's a pleasure to meet you, Captain Jonny Reno." The other party stretched out his hand graciously.

His face was a little pale, and his hands trembled slightly, but he remained calm overall.

Judging from the fact that he called out the name Jonny Renault, his information gathering channel was also quite fast, and he should have collected information about Renault at the time of the incident.

Renault did not stretch out his hand: "A consortium president? Big man, but it's nothing compared to the holy relics. ”

Hearing the word relic, Fernand hurriedly said, "I don't have ......."

Renaud interrupted him: "Aren't you going to read the letter and then think about how to organize the lie?" ”

Fernand hurriedly plugged the memory into his terminal, and when he saw the contents on it, his face changed completely.

Renault had already turned his gaze to the boy: "What about you?" Which family's young master? ”

Daniel Reken grabbed the boy: "He's my son, I just brought him over to play." ”

Renaud ignored him and just looked at the boy.

The boy's gaze was a little straight.

He just stood there, looking straight at him, and didn't speak. His hair is naturally curly, with a slightly dark complexion and a faint blue sheen under his skin.

Due to the Great Interstellar Migration, the differences in the environment have led to some genetic changes in humans in different regions, in addition to the yellow, white, black, brown and other human races, blue, red, pink and other human races have also appeared, but most of the differences are not too large.

It wasn't unusual to have slightly blue skin, but Renault just stared at the boy.

Mr. President was flustered by Renault's gaze, and pulled the little boy behind him: "Mr. Renault, if you want to get something, you can say it directly." The holy relic is here, and we are willing to give it to you, but please don't hurt my son. ”

As he spoke, he stepped aside.

Behind him, there was a magnetic field.

This magnetic field is composed of four super-electromagnetic polar circles, and the magnetic field composed of a huge electromagnetic force constantly emits electric light, which looks extraordinary and beautiful.

In the center of the magnetic field is a crystal-clear object.

It was so dazzling that even those who had never seen it knew it was a holy relic at first sight.

But Renault only glanced faintly and looked away.

He looked at Fernand: "This is not the piece that Abrody brought back. ”

Director Fernand hurriedly replied, "The piece you brought back has lost all its energy and has no value. ”

"Is it worth it, I have the final say, where is it?" Renault asked.

Fernand looked at the mustachioed man.

Mr. President hurriedly said, "The San Diego family has bought it. Believe me, Mr. Reynolds, it's just a piece of sanctified relic, not worth much. The reason why we bought it was because we were also researching the relics, and the Institute could not sell us a piece of the relics in good condition, so we could only buy some scrap products for research. ”

"What do you want to scrap for?"

"Even if it's a waste product, there's usually some residual energy."

"So what can it be?"

“…… If you use some means, sometimes the residual energy can be higher. President Daniel replied meaningfully.

Renault understood that this so-called residual energy must have been specially left behind by the Institute.

"What the federal government hasn't spent two hundred years researching, you can do research with a little residual energy and there will be results?" Renault asked. This is also something he has been unable to figure out, businessmen are unprofitable, no matter how high the value of the holy relics, it is useless for them, and they will not spend a lot of money, so he believes that these consortia must have enough understanding of the holy relics.

Unexpectedly, Daniel shook his head and said: "The progress is very small, we can't parse the source of the holy artifact's energy, we can't make it, we can't control it, we can only use it to a limited extent like the federal government, and create some superpowered warriors." ”

"Hundreds or hundreds of billions of dollars for a few superpower warriors? You're at a loss. Renault sneered: "Do you want to tell me that you are doing a loss-making business, and you have been doing it all the time?" ”

Superpowers are good, but to exchange such a large sum of money is definitely not a good deal.

"In fact, it was a doomed loss-making deal." President Daniel replied: "I know you don't believe it, but we may not be able to accept other losses, and we can do this." Or not just us, it's everyone, all families! ”

"Why?" Now Renault didn't understand.

Daniel replied, "Mr. Renault, I know that you have incredible abilities, but in fact this is no secret among the major families. But your vision is still too limited, you only see the ability, but not the root. ”

"What fundamentally?"

"Life!" Daniel became excited: "In most people's eyes, giving people extraordinary power is the meaning of holy things, but few people understand that life is the essence of holy things!" It is a miracle from God, a gift from God, which can bring great strength to people and eternal life! ”

Renault froze: "You mean ......"

"Yes!" Daniel replied loudly: "A long life, a long life beyond your imagination!" Renault, you are still young, so you don't know what the holy relic will bring you. But we know that those who are transformed by the relics not only have great abilities, but most importantly, even the essence of life will change, and life will be more vibrant, even those who are about to die will be rejuvenated by it! ”

Renault was shocked.

Daniel exclaimed, "Yes, this is the real reason why we are pursuing the holy relics, which are already the ultimate means for every rich and powerful person to save death. ”

Reynolds understood that although the mortality rate of human beings using sacred relics was as high as 95 percent, for those who were about to die, this terrible mortality rate automatically converted into a survival rate of 5 percent.

Those rich and powerful people who have come to the end of their lifespan, when the medicine is ineffective, do not hesitate to take risks, accept the holy relic experiment, and once they succeed, they can get out of death, and not only that, but they can also gain great power.

That's why they're so keen on holy things.

A long life!

This is what the big guys are looking for.

"Who told you that the relics give life?" Renaud asked in a deep voice, he had to find out if this was a rumor or a fact: "I haven't heard that the gods can gain immortality through holy relics. ”

Daniel immediately replied, "That's not immortality, it's life." Those who can use it to exert their life energy are not the god race, but the Ark Zerg race. ”

"What do you say? Zerg? Renault was shocked.

"Yes, the holy relic is not the preserve of the gods, the zerg are also looking for it, and ...... They are also very good at using holy relics. It's just that they use the holy relics in different ways, and for the Ark Zerg, what they get from the holy relics is the power of life. ”

"The power of life ......," Renault muttered to himself.

At that moment, he suddenly thought of those cyborgs.

The scene of the bear-man Bepolga squeezing out a bullet with his muscles is still vivid, and even a real bear can't do it.

Just relying on the genes of the violent bear?

Come on, that's impossible.

It's a holy thing!

It was the holy relics that changed them, they changed everyone, they changed the gods, they changed the human race, and even ...... And the Zerg!

Daniel didn't know what Renault was thinking, he just said excitedly: "You can not believe it, Mr. Renault, but it is the truth." The Santiago family has proven from personal experience that some of our important people have survived and gained great strength because of this...... For more than 200 years, although the Daybreak Project has not been successful, humanity is not completely ignorant, and we are having our own understanding of the sacred relics! ”
