The special gear of the portal twisted back.His wriggling movements came to a halt, and a puzzled expression appeared on the face of the robotic adjutant, who had mimicked human expressions and moods with high precision.Looking up at Neil, the robot adjutant said, "Your Highness, the gears of this device cannot be reset."
"...What does it mean to be unable to reset?" Neil's ending sounded with uncertain doubts.
"The activation of this device is connected to the Taris Portal. I think it is probably because of the kick just now by His Royal Highness. The gear seems to be stuck and cannot be reset..."
"What I'm more concerned about is whether the broken device can connect to Taris' portal..."
"Well, it shouldn't be a problem. This device was originally designed to connect to the Taris Portal. Since it can be opened, there is no problem. Now the device cannot be reset."
Neil said loudly: "Hurry up and contact Morris, has Akabane gone back?"
"Okay, Your Highness!"

Galactic Era 3018.With the development of human civilization on earth, the technology so far is enough to allow human beings to spread their footprints all over the galaxy. Even so, most human beings are still unwilling to leave this beautiful planet.
However, it is not only technology and culture that follow the development of human civilization on earth... Humans have discovered that on this earth, what coexists with them on this planet is not only animals and plants, but also some animals and plants that are stronger and more powerful than humans. Intelligent 'creatures', they may be staying somewhere on this planet, wandering maliciously or kindly, hunting and preying for life or power...

The night on the earth is the most beautiful. Even though it is already deep winter in this city, the heavy snow covering the sun renders the whole city pure white.The flying car flying through the air tore through the clouds at too fast a speed, and it seems that the dark blue can be seen through the clouds, making the whole city even more dreamy.
The city's nightlife has just begun.
This is one of the most prosperous and beautiful cities on earth. People of all kinds are enjoying life, feeling life, and polishing time under the neon lights that are about to light up. Even though it is deep winter, it still cannot affect people's mood. .
Longyi Interstellar Office is the same as usual today, there is no difference.The girl accepted the commission fee with a smile, got up and sent the man out the door, enduring the cold wind blowing in.
"Then, Miss Xue Jin, see you next time."
Xue Jin waved his hand, said goodbye to the guests with a smile, hurriedly closed the door to block the too fierce cold wind, looked back at the young man sitting on the sofa reading a book, Xue Jin said: "Boss, it is already It's winter, I think those guys are hibernating and won't come out, should you give me a vacation or something. I'm in the office 360 days a year."
Xue Jin sat on the sofa in front of the man, talking and observing his boss.In fact, if it wasn’t for the severe winter, it would be good to stay in the office all the time. Whoever told me that my boss is so handsome, I feel pleasing to the eye just looking at it, let alone going out to work, no matter walking on the road or somewhere else, the sense of pride, It's just a '噌噌' upward trend.But now is the coldest time in the whole winter, it is definitely better to stay at home...
Xue Jin also made a lot of determination to choose the former between warm and handsome. After all, the cold winter will go away, and his boss will not disappear...
The man turned a page of the book without raising his eyes, and said lightly, "Yes."
"Yes?" Xue Jin blinked, and moved to the side of the man: "It's actually possible. In this case, shouldn't you say 'Although it is winter, those things are not animals that don't hibernate, but instead use this time to hunt' ...? Then leave me..."
"The rest time is until today next month, from now on."
"Can you say a few more words?" Xue Jin bent slightly and stared at the man in front of him. From this angle, he was simply perfect.Whether it's because of the drooping eyes when reading a book, or the high nose bridge, slightly parted lips, or the delicate facial contours...
Xue Jin's eyes were fixed on that mouth, wishing he could step forward and lick it.The man reached out and pushed Xue Jin's head away: "I've never been a talkative person."
"But Boss, don't you think your voice is too nice? If you don't speak, it's a waste of such voice."
"..."
Just as he was about to draw the boss's attention away from the book, the doorbell suddenly rang.Xue Jin paused, stood up from the sofa, and snapped her fingers to straighten her clothes: "A guest is here." She blinked at the man, but unfortunately, his playful and playful appearance was ignored. , Xue Jin snorted and opened the door.
It was an old woman who came in, and it seemed that she was struggling to walk. She was wearing thick clothes, which made her look even more stooped, but the spirit of the old man looked good. When she saw Xue Jin, she immediately He smiled and said, "I'm here to trouble you again."
Xue Jin reached out to help the old man in, but his gaze involuntarily stopped on the person behind the old man.Xue Jin frowned, and couldn't help shivering, because the person following the old man was only wearing a very thin set of clothes.
Xue Jin helped the old man onto the sofa, but he couldn't take his eyes off the man.The man reading finally put down the book. He raised his eyes to look at the old man, then at the person following behind him, and asked, "Grandma Lin, who is this brat?"
The old man looked back at the person behind him, and said with a smile, "So it's really a 'ghost', I wonder what kind of monster I met this time."
"..."
Before the man could speak, the old man started talking about the matter: "You also know my physique, and I live alone, and I don't know anyone. Although you said that I have a powerful protection, I am still very attractive to monsters." , but I didn't expect that 'ghosts' could also be attracted..."
The man didn't speak. It was obvious that the old man took the kid he was talking about as that kind of ghost, but now was not the time to interrupt.
"Two days ago when I came back from shopping, I saw this 'little devil' wandering downstairs in the community. I was wearing the current suit in the winter, and I was eating the snow on the ground. I thought he was pitiful, so I gave him some snacks. Go home quickly, but this 'little ghost' has been following me since then. I thought about my physique, this may not be a human, but another creature..." The old man coughed twice, and continued: "This' Little ghost' didn't hurt my thoughts either, I guess he's just an ordinary creature, so I didn't care about him, he always wore like this, and he didn't want clothes when I gave him, then I thought maybe it was a 'ghost', so I burned the clothes I gave it to him, but he still didn't put it on..."
There was a smile on the corner of the man's mouth, thinking to himself that this brat is a human being, how could he wear the burnt clothes.Seeing the kid staring straight at him, the man felt that the kid's eyes were exactly the same as Xue Jin's, and the emotions he expressed were probably exactly the same...
Sure enough, it's because she looks too good-looking...
This kid doesn't look very old. What the man cares about is that this kid is wearing so little clothes, but he doesn't feel cold.
Xue Jin asked: "Grandma, do you want us to help you get rid of the demon? But this is a child, he doesn't..."
The man stood up suddenly and interrupted Xue Jin's words.
The old man said: "No, this child is not bad. He has been following me these days and often helps me with things. I just want to ask if this child is a monster. After all, I am a human being. Other exorcist damage...
But I didn't expect it was really a ghost... It doesn't matter if you get rid of it. You can help me save him and let him reincarnate. It's a pity that such a big child died. "
"But mother-in-law, we are demon hunters, no..." The man raised his hand and patted Xue Jin on the shoulder, interrupting Xue Jin again.Xue Jin watched him walk up to that person, then got a piece of talisman from somewhere and pasted it on the kid's forehead.
"I will save him well." The man said, observing the person in front of him.
With the man's promise, the old man stood up, took out a few small denominations of money, and handed them out.Xue Jin quickly pushed back the old man's hand and said, "Grandmother, forget it, it's not a big deal."
That little ghost was neither a monster nor a ghost, he was a person at all, and he didn't know what his boss was thinking, where did he get such an inexplicable talisman.If this took money, it would be a black firm.
The old man insisted on pushing the money over, and she said: "There is not much money, I am very sorry to bother you to do this in such a winter, and the ghost of this child is very poor, when you go to salvation, buy him something for the road... ..."
"...Take it!" The man said to Xue Jin.
"..."
Damn... Xue Jin cursed in his heart, but finally decided not to accept the money.She sent the old man downstairs before returning to the office.
The kid was already sitting on the sofa, his beautiful blue eyes were staring at the man closely, and he didn't know what the kid wanted to keep, tears were streaming down his face.What surprised Xue Jin and the man was that the temperature around the kid began to rise continuously, and the talisman paper that had been pasted on his forehead finally couldn't withstand the high temperature, and suddenly turned into ashes and scattered down.
The man moved to the opposite sofa, but the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened, and he asked, "Can you understand us, brat?"
"Yes, I didn't understand it before, but I turned to
