Industrial Cthulhu: Starting as an Island Lord - Chapter 79: Steam Engine

Humanity achieved dominion over the galaxy long ago.Once that was accomplished, they turned their ingenuity inwards. With their prowess over biological engineering, they transformed themselves into deific beings now called the Gene Tyrants. For centuries, the Gene Tyrants terrorized the galaxy, designing and abusing their genetically engineered servants and serfs as their whims took them.No tyranny can last forever, though, and the Gene Tyrants were eventually overthrown. The rebels discovered a strange light of the mind called Aether, which gave them the strange and fantastical powers they needed to eradicate their creators. Once that was done, however, that by no means meant peace.In the thousand years since, the face of the galaxy has changed. The most powerful human civilization is called the Supremacy, the homeland of 'might makes right'. In the Supremacy, a crime committed by the strong is no crime at all. With their military strength and mastery of Aether, the Supremacy has spread across the galaxy -- with the other powers able to do little but stall their advance. This struggle has developed into a cold war, and that cold war has frozen over for years now.Dragan Hadrien, a low-level administrator in the Supremacy, cares nothing for any of this. Dragan's primary concern is getting himself a promotion and taking it easy for the rest of his days. When a mysterious prisoner is brought aboard his ship, he thinks he has found the means to do just that.How naive of him.

In her previous life, she had given everything for him and helped him step by step to become a great minister, but she was not as good as her good sister who slept with him.

When the gentle and loving husband took her life, she realized that the love she thought was as deep as the sea was a joke.

To the end with hatred, Lu Xiang cursed angrily, wanting to let the person who wronged her and harmed her have a terrible death…

Opening her eyes again, she returned to the year she was fourteen years old. She had the same life, but she returned with hatred in her heart.

…

The night was dark and the wind was high, Lu Xiang picked up Chu Jinyan who was hunted down and seriously injured, his eyes sparkled.

“Hey, golden thighs!”

So without further ado, he dragged the person into his room to hide.

“As the saying goes, life-saving grace should be promised with your body… Ah, no, I will repay you with the spring, I saved your life today, and you have to promise me three requests in the future.”

Chu Jinyan: “???”

He doesn’t really want to be rescued…

Later, Chu Jinyan patted his thigh and hooked his fingers: “My concubine, come, I’ll give you my lonely thigh.”

She: insidious, deceitful!

Him: despicable, shameless!

Passerby A: So they are a match made in heaven?

Passer-by: Bah, that’s called working in collusion!

【Double Life】

Bai Xianyu is a well-known beauty of Da Kui, soft and beautiful, with a natural beauty.

Xie Xingyun is the son of the Hou Mansion, who became famous at a young age and was well-known in Beijing.

The most regretful thing Bai Xianyu did in her previous life was to stalk her and marry Xie Xingyun, but after years of indifference, Xie Xingyun never loved her.

–

Until, the two of them were reborn to discuss marriage.

The eldest brother of the major general holds a spear: “If you want to marry you, let him step over me!”

The second brother of the richest man is coquettish and arrogant: “Apart from being poor, how can this kid compare to your second brother?”

The third brother of the powerful minister sneered sneeringly: “My fifth younger sister is soft-tempered, she must have been deceived by you!”

The fourth brother of Xinke champion Lang Fengshen Junlang: “What’s so good about being married, brother studies and supports you…”

Bai Xianyu returned to his senses in a daze: “Okay… I won’t marry.”

Everyone was overjoyed.

Xie Xingyun stood silently outside the door, condescendingly staring at her smiling face.

–

The news that Bai Xianyu had given up on the son of the Marquis of Zhenbei spread quickly in Beijing, and the son of a family who came to propose marriage broke through the threshold of the General’s Mansion.

Seeing her turn a blind eye to himself.

Seeing her smiling and talking about marriage with others.

Xie Xingyun, who was always cold and respectful, drank wine and went over the wall of the General’s Mansion in the middle of the night, “… You said that you will not marry anyone but me.”

Bai Xianyu bit her lip, “Master Hou, please respect yourself, this is my boudoir.”

“I am your husband.”
