There was a kind of grandeur called the bearing of a soldier.
- Storm Brigade
As expected, the war was over. It was only a small scale invasion. The alien insects did not jump over in a large army. It was very likely that the battle spores left behind by the Zergs on a certain planet had hatched. In order to find food, they accidentally appeared in the orbit of Lakadar during the jump, which led to this invasion.
In fact, it had been nearly a thousand years since the extinction of the previous civilization. There had been no news of the Zergs. This terrifying race was like a ghost, wandering in the universe. Sometimes, their killing seemed to be purposeful, but sometimes it was completely random. No one knew their purpose, but they had a very gentle name, the Worm clan.
The invasion was ultimately judged as an accident. Weimar's mission was to get the planet running as soon as possible and then return to camp. In fact, it was not difficult. The essence of merchants was profit. They would carry out orders according to established laws and wait for the Empire to appoint a new government agency before continuing their contracts.
The reason why the army was still stationed was to track where the alien insects came from, investigate, and take corresponding actions to completely eliminate them to eliminate future troubles. However, Yue Hen's pursuit required time, so the army could not leave yet.
As for the issue of dealing with the post-war personnel, it was very simple. If their identities were unclear and they could not give a clear answer, their memories would be forcefully read and then dealt with. Imprisonment, exile, and of course, some people would become bargaining chips with certain forces. These matters would ultimately be handled by the security department. Weimar's mission was to deal with those who had a clear identity and had suffered losses in the war. These people were basically businessmen. Those who were injured only had one request, medical treatment and compensation. It was a very simple matter, and the adjutant could settle it. However, there was one more troublesome one. He had no background, no relatives, and was completely an orphan. This person was the Floater.
The commander looked at the floating monsters who were standing among the group of merchants and looking around. He sighed. This kid was definitely not a good person. His eyes were rolling around and never stayed in one place for more than three seconds. He had a good impression of this kid. His head was hit and he lost consciousness, but he was still crawling forward. He was actually able to avoid the flying gravel with his bare buttocks. It could be seen how strong this kid's will to survive was.
When he came back and saw the video of the camp being attacked, this kid didn't panic at all when facing the hydralisks. He even knew how to save people. From the surveillance footage, he saw the kid using his telekinesis. It should be his first time, and he wasn't very familiar with it. However, he was sure that he had it. He was very troubled by this matter. There were indeed very few mutants, but each of them was arrogant and unruly. He originally wanted to send the kid directly to the orphanage. However, it was a problem now. He did not know if he could bring it back to his family. With a little training, he would definitely be able to become a helper for his family.
Back then, he had given him his own artificial intelligence to pass the time because of his familiarity with his face. His wife was Chinese, so he had a good impression of her. However, the things he had been looking up with his AI these few days were very strange. Some common sense things, and some messy unofficial legends. He searched for the race called the Celestial Race several times, as well as the Taiji Pisces and Dao…Perhaps he had heard these strange words from the legends.
" Cough cough…" Weimar stopped letting his imagination run wild and coughed softly to calm the chaotic scene. Weimar glanced at the hall and said,""All the alien insects on the planet have been eliminated. We are now searching for the source with all our strength. I know how everyone is feeling, so I won't say any more nonsense. The dynasty will compensate according to the damage. Everyone can go home after registering with Deputy Alenzo.”
"Thank you, Commander!" There was a wave of gratitude.
"Come here to register." The young adjutant brought the two secretaries to the other side, leaving only the Floater in the hall.
He didn't know whether to leave or stay. He stood there awkwardly in a daze.
"Floater, do you have any relatives?" Weimar smiled. Your family's shop has been destroyed. The empire can rebuild it for you, but can you run it alone?”
" Commander, I don't have any family left. I only have grandpa, and..." The Floater didn't have any feelings for his grandpa, only gratitude. However, in order to make it look real, he squeezed out some tears. Of course, he wasn't thinking about his grandpa, but his parents. The more he thought about it, the more sad he felt, and the more tears he shed.
"Don't be sad, he just returned to his origin. What are your plans now? Tell me, if the empire can satisfy you, I will definitely do it.”When Weimar saw the Floater crying, he immediately let go of his last bit of wariness. With his experienced eyes, how could he not see the difference between real and fake sadness? This was only a half-grown child, not much different in age from his own daughter, but he had encountered a great disaster. It was really heaven's will to play tricks on people.
"I just want to live!" The Floater lowered its head, but in its heart, it was shouting: "Satisfied? I want to go back to the past. Can you satisfy me? It was the official excuse again. Who was lying?”
"What do you think? Actually, Weimar really wanted to say that you could come to my house and be a servant. I guarantee that you can survive, but he couldn't say such words in front of so many people. He still had the demeanor of an upper-class aristocrat.
"I want to be your servant!" The Floater rubbed his hands and said.
Everyone looked at this youth with some disdain. He lowered his status for the sake of survival. How shameless. The Floater didn't care. They only thought that way because they were full. In an unfamiliar environment, everything was unfamiliar. Without any means of survival, it was not easy to survive. What was the point of status? Besides, there were more benefits to becoming a servant of Weimar. Being in contact with upper-class nobles and military nobles would definitely be helpful for his future life. He might even have the opportunity to transmigrate back.
Weimar also looked at the Floater in shock. He didn't expect this kid to say that. He felt that this kid was an untamed person. He didn't expect him to say such words in order to survive. However, when he thought of the hardships of survival, he felt relieved. This kid had lost his parents. Life was survival to him. This tenacious personality made Weimar no longer look down on this kid.
" Hahaha..." Weimar laughed and looked very happy."I don't want you to become my servant. Just treat it as lodging in my house. When you grow up and can support yourself, you can leave at any time. I will provide you with everything you need unconditionally.”
"Thank you, benevolent Major General Weimar!”This time, the Floater was speechless. This man was a man of his word. He didn't doubt the authenticity of his words. A commander on the battlefield would carry out his words in front of his subordinates no matter what happened. This was the bearing of a soldier. The Floater knelt down on one knee and expressed his sincere gratitude.
His subordinates also applauded. This was the most passionate admiration for a man with such a bearing.
The next thing was much easier. Weimar put down his identity as the commander and instantly became a nephew of the Floater. He let the Floater call him uncle. Actually, the Floater was quite happy. He had a grandfather for no reason when he first came here, and now he had a cheap uncle. It seemed that old man Fate was quite good to him.
Weimar still had things to do, so he left in a hurry after chatting with the Floater for half a day. The butler would send someone to pick up the Floater. He had military matters to attend to, so he had to wait for Yue Hen to analyze it, so he couldn't go back yet. Of course, before leaving, Weimar still transferred some credits to the Floater. He knew that this kid was completely poor. As for the AI, he also gave it to the Floater as a gift for their first meeting.
The Floater felt that it was necessary for him to go for a walk to understand the situation here and buy some local specialties. When he went to someone's house, he had to bring some gifts. He did not forget this idea of giving gifts.
He didn't waste any time and went out in the afternoon. His current identity was Weimar's nephew, so the guards didn't stop this friendly kid and let him look around the camp.
This planet was actually very desolate. Other than the large deserts, there were also large deserts. There were scattered oases in the deserts, and there were also some Gobi deserts. Of course, the places that could survive were all simple civilians.
The location of the jump point was the only big city. It was not because there was abundant water and grass here, but it was more convenient to choose the jump point here. With this transit hub as a starting point, the business teams of the major consortiums built a huge city in the desert.
All the buildings were made of sand. Super agglomerating agents condensed the fine sand into solid walls. Not only could they block the wind and sand, but they could also maintain a relatively balanced temperature. Moreover, they were made of local materials, which was extremely convenient. The buildings were also strange in appearance, but they did not have a square shape. They were all round walls and looked very gentle.
The invasion of the alien insects had only destroyed a part of the West District. The other areas had not been attacked at all. Therefore, after the crisis was resolved, it returned to its former prosperity. The streets were filled with merchants coming and going. Everyone was driving a small airship, and the back of the airship was filled with goods.
After strolling for a while, the Floater encountered people from several races. The Bunny Race rabbit people, who were dressed in hot clothes and had long ears and short tails, were recruiting customers at the entrance of the tavern. The four-legged, four-armed Octopus Odepais cursed the dry place. There were also people selling ancient relics in the crowd…
This was the world's various forms. As for humans or human-like beings, the floating monsters would more or less take a look. As for the octopus-like beings and the Paihou Li-like beings, he wasn't interested at all.
In front of an antique shop, the Floater stopped. A young man had his feet on the table and was holding a cup of unknown drink in his hand. He closed his eyes to rest.
He seemed to know that someone had come in and raised the cup in his hand as a greeting.
The Floater didn't care about this lazy person and just looked at the dazzling array of items. There were strange spoons, plates made of some unknown metal, puppets that were half the height of a human, and some pottery.
Suddenly, he saw a bracelet on the jewelry rack. It was milky white and translucent. There was a blood-red vein inside. Upon closer inspection, it was a red worm. The tail of the worm was in the shape of a ribbon, so it looked long. The Floater felt that it looked good and decided to buy this bracelet.
As soon as he took it, it was snatched away by a small fair hand. The owner of the small hand said,"This is what I like!"
The Floater turned around and saw a little loli standing behind him. She was wearing a white dress and had curly golden hair. Her small face was as exquisite as a porcelain doll.
"I got it first!" The Floater felt that this kid had no manners at all and should be taught a lesson. He pulled a long face and prepared to argue.
