The moonlight passed through the layers of black gauze, and finally was willing to spread a little light into the world.

The forest seemed to have been pressed on the mute button, and the creatures that were showing off in the daytime seemed to have their throats strangled. They only dared to breathe quietly for fear of waking up the things in the dark.

Apart from the sound of the water, there was only the sound of the water roaring unwillingly. They were still running under the starry moonlight, leaping from the cracked cliff one after another until they were thrown into pieces of water. The beads scattered in all directions.

The wind whistled through the forest, and the sound of the leaves rubbing together and the swaying shadows seemed to be mocking those pitiful and cowardly cowards.

The gray-haired boy stood alone at the edge of the waterfall. The waterfall in the darkness was like a bottomless monster with its bloody mouth open. It seemed to be watching him excitedly and maliciously from the bottom. But at this moment, he was shown to be so weak, like a moth about to fall.

Stupid and impulsive boy, your fear is my nourishment.

When you come down, I will tear apart your flesh and bones inch by inch, and let your soul stay in this abyss forever!

come! Come on!

Poor, weak orc boy, soon you will become one of these bones! Along with all the greedy people who are buried here!

But for the young man on the edge of the cliff, the wind could blow away everything, but it couldn't blow away the fiery, crazy persistence in his eyes.

Step by step, closer and closer to the edge.

A small stone rolled down accidentally at my feet, but I couldn't even hear the sound.

are you afraid?

In fact, no, Leo just felt as if the blood under his skin was boiling.

Many things suddenly flashed through his mind.

Ever since I was born, I have been a small, ordinary, and unfavored life by the goddess of luck.

"Orca is D level? Isn't it? And it has dolphin blood?"

When he completed the genetic level test for the first time, the staff in the breeding room took the report and whispered in disbelief.

He was only a three-year-old cub at the time, and he didn't seem to understand why these uncles who usually took good care of him showed such expressions. There were some emotions that he couldn't understand, including disappointment, unwillingness and sighs.

Did he do something wrong and become a bad boy? Xiao Liao clenched his fingers in confusion.

The cubs in the breeding room need to undergo genetic testing when they reach the age of three. After that, their life directions will become completely different.

Obviously before this, there was no difference between them. They were all carefully maintained together. They all ate the same food, slept and studied in the same place.

Killer whales, the king of the sea, rarely produce offspring with low genetic levels in this bloodline.

What's more, Li Ao showed extraordinary intelligence at a young age. Before he was three years old, he had already mastered most of the interstellar lingua franca fluently and could read on his own, and the reading room in the training room was always open to him throughout the day.

The little killer whale orc, with its excellent appearance, easily won the extra favor of the caregivers.

After all, everyone likes beautiful things.

Everyone has high hopes for him, hoping that their cultivation room in District 9 can produce an outstanding orc with a high genetic level. They can also receive commendations for this, and if they are lucky, they can enter a higher-level area!

But after the much-anticipated test, it was written with a D grade.

Not even B level, a killer whale calf with a low blood level.

"I said at the time, there is no chance for hybrids! Otherwise, how could pure killer whale blood only have D level!"

"Then why did you insist on cultivating a water beast in the first place? We are in District 9! What can a water beast do?"

"Haha, didn't you always praise him for his good looks before? What's the use of a low-blooded male orc just being good-looking? Our place is not in the core area, and he can't even be a pet to make the noble ladies happy."

"Didn't you all participate in this decision before? Now it's my fault? Now if something goes wrong, it's all my responsibility?"

"It has nothing to do with me anyway!"

"Go away! A bunch of rubbish!"

""

The quarrels got louder and louder, and soon there were hands. A container shattered next to the little boy with a "snap", and the fragments cut his skin, but no one cared about him anymore.

How eager he was before, now he is so indifferent.

The person who was at the center of the quarrel now couldn't even get a look.

Silently picked up the test report that had been thrown on the ground, and looked at the paper with the photo of his bright smile. On the column of the genetic test level, there was a big D written in red.

The young killer whale calf sensed that on this day, the door full of hope in front of him had been slammed shut.

The days that followed not only plummeted, they were completely different from before.

Based on the test results, these cubs were assigned to different places and led different lives.

They no longer have their own separate cribs. Instead, there are forty or fifty children crammed into a room with only a simple set of bedding.

The food they eat are also leftovers from other high-level cultivation rooms, and some nutrient solutions that are on the verge of expiration. There is no choice, and there is no choice. If you hesitate a little, you may not even be able to eat. For this limited food, everyone has learned to fight with fists and kicks at a young age.

Leo is a killer whale orc, and his appetite for food is larger than that of ordinary orcs, but he is so thin that he can't grab those big children.

Therefore, enduring hunger has become a normal state, and I often dream about one day in my sleep that I can have a full meal.

But if physical hunger can be endured, then mental hunger often makes his every day hopeless and unbearable.

The reading room that was open to him all day long no longer welcomed him, and even wanting to read a book became a luxury.

He likes reading and the feeling of wandering in the ocean of knowledge. It makes him feel full and free, as if his spirit has escaped from his body and flown to the outside world, in which he is full of strength and confidence.

When they get older, they will be responsible for all the chores in the breeding room. There is no pay, forced labor, and there will be punishment if they fail to finish the work. But he often takes the initiative to occupy the area in front of the reading room, even though its area is obviously much larger than other places.

Because when he was not working, he could also hide under the window and peek at the high-level children in class.

But those high-level children, even in his opinion, were not as good as him in knowledge and IQ. I don't know if it was out of jealousy or something else, but they learned to bully people at a young age.

They would deliberately step on the floor he had just mopped, kick over the plastic bucket filled with sewage to the ground, and then walk away laughing.

As a young man, he could only start over again without saying a word with tears in his eyes.

They are the custodians of the caregivers. So what if I file a complaint, little baby? They won't be punished in any way, but if he can't finish it on time, he will have nothing to eat today.

Who told him that he was only a D grade?

They are destined not to become the empire's top talents in the future and cannot engage in those high-end industries. Even those marginal industries will not be their turn. Therefore, no one pays attention to them, and no one is willing to invest resources in them.

This is District 9 after all, and the living environment in District 9 is inherently harsh.

But there was still a small, unwilling flame burning cautiously in his heart.

While crying, he whispered to himself: "Leo, it doesn't matter. No one is destined to be ordinary when he is born."

A burst of cold water drops hit his face, and Leo finally recovered from the turbulent memories.

Even after a long time, he had grown up and thought those experiences were in the past, but when the memories came back, those sour feelings were still so clear.

But Leo, you are different now, aren't you?

His chest was beating "dong dong dong", just like the strong voice that had been supporting him.

"Leo, you are really awesome!"

It was the pure, innocent and sincere voice of the elf.

He felt that all the suffering he experienced in the first half of his life had a reason. He had exhausted all his good luck before he could do his best to meet Miss Sia.

At that time, Shia had just started to learn to speak. Although the young elf had no memory, he was still instinctively uneasy towards strangers.

Except for the captain, she didn't even want anyone else to touch her.

When encountering words that are difficult to understand, he will just purse his lips, frown his delicate eyebrows, and feel annoyed alone.

"'Birthday' is the day you were born." He couldn't help but remind him.

The elf was suddenly startled by him, and his little head hid under the table for a moment, but he still couldn't help but peek at him through the gap.

Feeling that the other person was too cute, he couldn't help but introduce himself: "Hello, I'm Li Ao."

"I can help you if you need it." He heard himself summoning the courage to say.

Then he saw the elf's eyes gradually brighten.

"The 'ship' is where we are, the vehicle that can fly in the universe."

"'Starnet' is the collective name for the network that connects all interstellar realms..."

""

As the communication became smoother and smoother, he saw the light in the other person's eyes getting brighter and brighter, and the unabashed admiration made his body gradually straighten up.

It was as if there was an electric current radiating from the top of his head to his limbs, an indescribable numbness, and powerful, unprecedented confidence filled his whole body.

He originally thought that he would never have the chance to meet a female in his life, let alone such an outstanding young lady, but in the eyes of the elf, they were equal, not superior, and he seemed to be no longer the good-for-nothing D. A level killer whale orc, but a shining, outstanding and powerful person.

From that day on, the relationship between him and the elf seemed to be drawn closer. Slowly, Sia began to rely more and more on him, and he wanted to become a better person for Sia more and more.

Taking a deep breath, the cold air passed through his lungs, and his mind suddenly became clear. Leo calmly observed the terrain ahead, and quickly caught the colorful light on the turbulent water.

After retreating a certain distance, his feet suddenly exerted force, and the gray-haired boy rushed forward with overwhelming momentum!

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

As if he was about to turn his years of unwillingness into a roar, like a butterfly breaking through the shackles of his soul, Leo jumped high and jumped into the raging waterfall without hesitation!

The sleepy elf huddled in the warm hair of the white wolf on the high cliff in the distance suddenly raised his head and stared fixedly at the waterfall. He suddenly became excited when he saw the tiny black spot falling downwards.

"Leo! It's Leo! Leo fell!"

"I heard it! It's his voice! It's Leo's voice!!"
