in the name of the queen

Chapter 143 Technology depends entirely on archeology
Munina shrank timidly behind Norton, her eyes full of fear.

For some reason, the aura on Roland's body made her instinctively feel afraid.

Mr Norton's surgery was successful and she survived, retaining nine of her natal scales on her right arm after severe rejection.

In addition to the seven that originally belonged to her, there are two more from Muniya.

Stealing two for two is fair.

Seven of her own natal scales are clearly visible, while the other two are hidden under the skin and only she knows about them.

In the eyes of outsiders, she is a rare genius in the entire Siren clan, but there are several seventh-scale geniuses in each generation, which is not too surprising.

It is said that there have been super geniuses with eight scales in the history of the Kraken clan, but the existence of nine scales has never been heard of.

Of course Munina didn't want others to know about this.

The sequelae of this operation were also very serious. Munina was more mechanized than Nana, and almost half of her body was replaced with mithril and arcane.

Roland raised his right hand, stopped Norton's explanation, and said with a smile:

"Miss Munina, of course I will not object to Mr. Norton wanting to adopt you. But remember, from now on you have only one identity, and that is Mr. Norton's daughter."

The Clan couldn't protect her, but Norton could.

Some parts must be replaced regularly.

"I know."

Yes, still a child.

After listening to Norton's statement, Roland looked at Munina, half of her body turned into a machine, and didn't know what to say.

Not only that, she seemed to be resisting something in her heart, and her mind instantly regressed back to ten years old.

She couldn't afford subsequent life support, but Norton could.

"Mr. Norton, there is no need to explain. I understand. It's great that Miss Nana finally has a partner."

He cast his kind eyes on Munina and said softly:

"Master Governor, she is still a child, don't scare her."

Scientific research fanatics like Mr. Norton sometimes have a higher desire for family affection than ordinary people.

Originally, we planned to give Munina some strength and let her know the consequences of betrayal, but now, she has transformed into Norton's daughter.

Munina lowered her head and said tremblingly.

Munina agreed without hesitation.

To her surprise, Norton wanted to adopt her.

Although her mind has regressed to ten years old, ten-year-old Munina is quite smart, even surpassing twelve-year-old Nana in some aspects.

Norton thought he was angry and quickly explained: "Mr. Governor, I don't want any accident to happen during the operation. I know you have plans for her, but"

She knew that Norton had a high status among the human governors, and with such an adoptive father, her future life would not be too difficult.

Norton quickly protected Munina behind him and reminded softly:

Roland vaguely felt that he would treat Munina like his own daughter.

Forget it, good luck to her.

That rainy night, she didn't step out of the camp. Maybe her fate began to change from that moment on.

Roland smiled and said: "I will bring Munina to meet Count Sif later. Since she is your daughter, everyone must know each other."

Of course Norton wouldn't refuse.

Although he stayed in the laboratory all day and rarely came out, he still knew the importance of Count Sif.

The Queen, the Governor and the Earl, they were the real core of the overseas group.

He didn't know that the Queen was the Count, but he knew that the Count was important.

Roland took Norton and Munina to find Sif.

The tacit understanding between him and Sif didn't require many words, Sif knew what he needed.

[Insight] Sif looked at Roland, smiled and gave an affirmative look.

Now that Munina has confirmed that there is no problem, she can safely leave it to Norton.

Norton is a true master of alchemy, so you can't leave a bomb next to him.

Obviously, Munina was originally timid, and after seeing Roland's methods, she has completely returned to her heart.

Norton was about to leave, but Roland stopped him.

"Mr. Norton, I have a few words that I would like to speak to you alone."

Norton knew that if he ruined Roland's plan, he would inevitably be beaten a few times.

He doesn't care.

Getting a new daughter after being scolded is a good deal.

Sif enthusiastically took Munina to a nearby room to exchange singing skills, leaving the living room to Roland and Norton.

Before Roland could speak, Norton apologized first, "I'm sorry, Mr. Governor, I promise this will never happen again."

Roland didn't expect Norton to move so quickly. He smiled and shook his head, "Mr. Norton, it doesn't have to be like this. I know you did it unintentionally, and this was the best choice at the time."

"You are a technician, there is no need to think about this. I need your wisdom and alchemy, not just being submissive."

"I'm just afraid that you'll be under psychological pressure, so I'll leave you to chat a little longer."

Looking at Roland's sincere eyes, Norton's lips trembled slightly and the tip of his nose felt a little sore.

Roland's identity is completely different from that of the post office clerk back then.

However, Roland's attitude towards him did not change much.

Still respect him and still recognize his alchemy.

He was not good at words and did not want to say anything, but he would always remember this kindness.

After Roland and Norton chatted for a while, he seemed to "accidentally" ask:

"Mr. Norton, I always feel that your alchemy and medical skills seem to be a little ahead of the times. If it is convenient, can you tell me about it? If it is not convenient, forget it."

Roland's words were polite, but how could Norton dare to say it was inconvenient?

Normally he could still be reserved, but not today.

Roland met all his requests and was polite. How could he refuse when he asked him a few questions?

After sorting out his thoughts for a while, Norton said softly: "It all started when I accidentally discovered a small ruins from the Second Age."

Roland's eyes lit up.

Extant historical records only date back to the Third Age, and are very incomplete.

Roland has a lot of history of the Third Age. If you want to know, you can go to the elf Sif in your dreams.

The history of the Fourth Era of Destruction and the Fifth Era of Nirvana can be found at the Magic Association.

Only the history of the first two eras is shrouded in mystery, mysterious and unusual.

Norton's speech was not very clear, so Roland listened and sorted out his thoughts.

Sure enough, it is the declining Dharma era, and technology relies entirely on archeology.

The civilization of the Second Age was very advanced. According to Norton, his alchemy that transcended the times was only a textbook in alchemy colleges at that time.

Roland burst out laughing. It seemed that the threshold for junior college was very high in that era, but he didn't know whether he would need to develop controllable nuclear fusion to upgrade to a bachelor's degree.

It's a pity that Norton only obtained it by chance, and the so-called relic is just the study room of an ordinary person.

After the conversation, Norton happily left with his daughter.

Roland stood on the balcony on the top floor of the Governor's Mansion, enjoying the cool sea breeze and thinking deeply.

Sif appeared beside him quietly, stood side by side with him, and asked softly:
"What are you thinking?"

"It's nothing, I just feel that time is getting more and more urgent."
