Chapter 103 Aurora
The one of the two little girls, with her bright and lively smile and red hair, is clearly Hela as a child.
The other little girl, who had a gentle and well-behaved smile, looked somewhat similar to Hela, but her hair was snow-white, like silver frost.
Upon seeing the photo in Li Yuan's hand, Hela's expression changed drastically, and she snatched it back.
She scanned it up and down several times to make sure it wasn't damaged before she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"You look a lot like me. Is that your family?" Li Yuan asked casually.
Hela gave Li Yuan a deep look, then turned and left the training ground without answering.
Li Yuan didn't care. He knew perfectly well that the white-haired little girl was Hela's sister, Aurora.
Unlike Hela, who wields the power of the dead, Aurora's special ability grants her flesh and blood powerful healing capabilities, even extending her lifespan and bringing her back to life.
When the Sprout Organization discovered Aurora's abilities, they were overjoyed. They immediately brainwashed and imprisoned her, using her blood and marrow to create recovery potions. They also used her to blackmail Hela, forcing Hela to obey the organization's orders.
"Hela, Aurora—"
As if he had thought of something, Li Yuan smiled and turned to walk towards the exit of the training ground.
Early the next morning.
The Black Harrier helicopter descended from the sky, and the leader, Hela, Li Yuan, and other members of the Sprout organization stepped out of the cabin one by one.
This is where Subject Number One died.
That's right, the guy who confidently led a bunch of people to capture Han Xiao yesterday has been completely wiped out by Han Xiao.
Looking at the twisted corpse of Number One on the ground, the leader let out a heavy, cold snort, making no attempt to hide his displeasure: "Useless!"
"Put a bounty on Zero on the dark web in the name of the organization!"
"A reward of one million, life or death at stake!"
-
The surrounding subordinates were shocked: "Are you sure? Isn't this overestimating him?"
"Hmph!" the leader said coldly. "Since he has the audacity to declare war on the organization, I will teach him a lesson in his insignificance and utterly destroy him!"
"Whether he was captured alive or turned into a corpse, investigate him carefully and find out why he became like this!"
"Yes, leader," the researcher who had come along replied confidently.
Then, pointing to the bodies of the first person on the ground, he asked, "What about these people?"
The leader was about to say, "Why should we care what they do?", but then suddenly remembered something: "How's the Super Soldier Project going?"
"The basic theory is complete; all that's left is the experiment." The researchers were taken aback.
"That's perfect." The leader sneered, pointing to Number One's corpse. "Let's use him."
As he spoke, he turned to Hela and said, "Let's summon her spirit."
Hela nodded, took a deep breath, and her hands glowed with a hazy gray light.
In an instant, the budding subordinates around him shivered, as if the temperature around them had dropped by more than ten degrees in that instant.
Suddenly, a ghostly wail came from the gray light in Hela's palm.
The corpse of Number One seemed to resonate with it, and wisps of drifting gray mist suddenly appeared in the air, lightly seeping into the corpse as if it were being absorbed.
Just then, the leader lifted his trench coat and took out a vial of bright red medicine from his pocket.
Upon seeing this thing, a murderous intent flashed in Hela's eyes, but she immediately concealed it.
Li Yuan's eyes flickered slightly. This bright red potion must be a healing potion made from Aurora's blood marrow.
The leader pulled the stopper off the glass tube and poured the bright red liquid inside onto Number One's corpse.
These liquids instantly entered Number One's body, and the next instant, a miraculous change occurred!
The body that was originally dead suddenly regained its temperature, and its wounds, large and small, healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The heart, which had been completely still, started beating again.
Thump, thump, thump————
As the heartbeat reached its peak, Number One abruptly opened his eyes, his face contorted with rage, his eyes filled with boundless hatred, and let out a piercing roar: "Zero—"
'
Tap, tap, tap —
In a complex and winding metal corridor that resembled a maze, Hela walked quickly into the depths with eager anticipation in her eyes.
The sound of her high-heeled military boots hitting the metal floor was almost continuous, without any pause. She seemed to know the maze-like terrain without stopping to find her way, clearly very familiar with the place.
This is where Aurora was imprisoned by Sprout. Although she can only come here once every two months, she has memorized every detail of this place and will never forget a single thing.
After walking alone for a while, Hela came to the end of a deep corridor.
Here, a thick metal gate stands quietly, with two fully armed guards standing on either side of it.
-
Moreover, all the automatic machine guns in the corridor were aimed at her, and they would fire without hesitation if she made the slightest movement.
"I have the authority," Hela said to the guard, her eyes fixed straight ahead, showing no fear, her tone icy.
One of the guards, his hand still on the trigger, stared intently at Hela, while the other turned and tapped a few times on the control panel on the metal door: "Authorization confirmed. You have one hour."
He clicked a few more times, and the metal door opened by itself, letting bright light pour out and illuminating Hela's vision.
Behind the door, a clean white room came into view. The interior was very simple, with only a bookshelf filled with books and a table, chairs, and a bed.
At that moment, on that pristine white bed, a small, thin figure was curled up under the covers.
Hela stepped forward with a pained expression, wanting to hug her sister, but she couldn't.
Because behind the metal door is not a passageway to the house at all, but a transparent special glass wall.
She pressed her hand against the glass, the veins on the back of her fair hand standing out from the excessive force.
Just then, the blankets suddenly began to move, and the person inside seemed to sense Hela's arrival, slowly poking their head out.
This was a pretty girl, but her once beautiful hair had been shaved off, exposing her scalp. It seemed that she was severely malnourished and had not seen the sun for a long time, and her face was extremely pale, which was heartbreaking to see.
She is Hela's sister, Aurora.
Upon seeing Hela, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes. She threw off the covers and, dragging her thin, withered legs, staggered weakly to the glass wall.
She was wearing loose hospital gowns, and her exposed forearms were covered with countless needle marks. She was so thin that she looked like skin and bones, and extremely weak.
"Sister, you've come to see me." Aurora stretched out her hand and pressed it against the glass wall, her hand touching Hela's through the thick glass. Her big eyes sparkled, and her face was full of joy.
Looking at her younger sister, who was almost a head shorter than her, Hela felt a lump in her throat. Fighting back a sob, she asked in a slightly trembling voice, "How have you been lately?"
Aurora smiled carefree and said in a lighthearted tone, "The doctors in white coats have been coming less and less lately. The last time I had an injection was fourteen days ago."
Hela bit her lip, forcing a smile, her gaze sweeping over the dense needle marks on her body, her heart aching as if being cut by a knife.
She knew why the doctor in the white coat Aurora mentioned had been coming less often; it was because Aurora's recovery speed had become increasingly slow.
Each time blood and bone marrow are extracted from her, it takes her even longer to recover.
Hela's ability allows her to sense the life force of others. Aurora, whose life force was originally as bright and dazzling as the sun, is now withering away like a candle in the wind.
"Sister, tell me more about what's been happening around you, starting from where we left off last time." Aurora sat down, hugging her knees and resting her head against the glass wall.
Hela sat down beside her, pressing her head against her sister's through the glass, and whispered, "Where were we last time?"
"Hmm—" Aurora tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Speaking of—you fought with your new subordinate."
Hela suddenly realized: "Li Yuan? That guy is no longer my subordinate, he—"
Suddenly, a man's voice rang in her ear: "Thinking about me?"
Hela turned her head sharply, her eyes filled with disbelief: "Li Yuan? What are you doing here?"
"Of course it's to help you save your sister," Li Yuan said with a smile, his face full of self-righteousness.
At this point, more than a year had passed since Han Xiao escaped from the Sprout Organization.
Having spent so much time in the budding organization, it's certainly not because I'm idle.
During this time, through continuous combat training, he and Hela have become much more familiar with each other.
In addition, he also gained basic and advanced knowledge of martial arts, supernatural abilities, and mechanics from Mengya.
The five superpower systems, each with its own knowledge, are divided into five levels from low to high: basic, advanced, high-end, cutting-edge, and ultimate.
The more advanced a civilization is, the more supernatural knowledge it possesses.
As a surface civilization, Aquamarine originally did not possess this knowledge.
It wasn't until recently, after coming into contact with a more advanced interstellar power, that I gained some incomplete knowledge.
The superpower knowledge within the Sprout Organization is already the most comprehensive on the entire planet Aquamarine, provided to them by the interstellar forces supporting them.
These are also some of the reasons that prompted Li Yuan to stay in the Sprout Organization.
As someone with the "simultaneous time travel" cheat ability, he is naturally different from the people native to this world.
In this world, superhumans are generally unable to cultivate different systems due to the fundamental attribute of "strength".
Therefore, for people in this world, if they have the potential to become superhumans, they either awaken their superpowers or fail to awaken them and then learn knowledge based on their innate talents to become superhumans of the other four categories.
But for Li Yuan, it was not like that.
He is a martial artist, a superhuman, a telekinetic, and even knows some magic.
Needless to say, he practiced far more than one type of martial art.
As for superpowers, he had also collected quite a few from the world of the Black Robe.
In the One-Punch Man world, he also cultivates Nen power.
As for magic, whether it's the Kido from the Bleach world or the Ninjutsu from the Naruto world, in this world of Super God Mechanic, they are actually all considered a special kind of magic.
It can be said that, apart from mechanical abilities, he possesses almost all the other superpower systems.
He already has a goal regarding how to learn mechanical engineering skills.
With Han Xiao, the future strongest mechanic in the universe, right in front of us, wouldn't it be a waste not to take advantage of him?
Coincidentally, Han Xiao has already begun his revenge against Mengya, so Li Yuan no longer keeps a low profile and goes directly to find Hela and Aurora.
Seeing the two people staring wide-eyed, Li Yuan calmly waved his hand: "Don't just stand there, let's go outside first."
O
As he finished speaking, a huge gap suddenly appeared in the originally incredibly sturdy glass wall.
Almost instantly, Hela grabbed Aurora's hand and hugged her tightly.
"Sister————" Aurora, who had been trying to maintain her strength and smile so as not to worry Hela, finally could no longer suppress her emotions and burst into tears.
Hela was the same; although she didn't cry out loud, the tears in the corners of her eyes just wouldn't stop.
Li Yuan didn't disturb them, letting the two sisters vent their emotions. In any case, he had destroyed all the weapons in the vicinity and blocked all the roads on his way here, so it was impossible for anyone from the Seedlings faction to get here in a short time.
Several minutes passed before Hela finally regained her composure, stroking Aurora's head and saying, "Let's go, let's leave here. I promise I'll never let you get hurt again."
"Mmm." Aurora nodded, her big eyes sparkling, and she smiled through her tears.
Hela turned around and carried her on her back, stood up and looked at Li Yuan. Although she didn't speak, the meaning in her eyes was self-evident.
Li Yuan smiled and nodded, then casually pointed his finger at the metal wall in front of him.
Suddenly, a ball of flame, the size of a basketball, ignited out of thin air and flew steadily forward while burning quietly in mid-air.
The moment the sturdy metal wall touched the fireball, it instantly melted, creating a hole large enough for two people to walk side by side.
Although Aquamarine gained some knowledge beyond that of surface civilizations through contact with interstellar forces, it has not yet been able to develop technology that is too far ahead of its time due to the short period of time it has been in contact with them.
Although this is the headquarters of the Sprout Organization, with Li Yuan's strength, leaving would be easy.
He didn't even bother with the usual route, directly using his fire superpowers to melt everything in his way, creating a path that he could go wherever he wanted.
A fiery dragon silently shot out, clearing a path leading directly to the outside world.
Sunlight streamed in from outside, illuminating Hela and Aurora's faces, and also illuminating the hope for the future in their eyes.
