Chapter 211: Ambition
Hyperion Star, Royal Court.
Through the arched floor-to-ceiling windows beside her, the study is golden-colored by the setting sun mixed with the evening sun, and a silver-haired woman in a white palace dress stands next to the bookcase, holding a thick cup of ancient books in both hands, her body is motionless, and her soft silver-gray eyes are staring at the pagesβas if she is carefully reading the contents of the book.
The name of the book is called the Corona Codex, and it is King Amun's experience of studying the Golden Sutra of the Sun, and it is an extremely precious and priceless treasure for any cultivator who studies the Sun Realm. As for the difficulties that may be encountered in the process of cultivation, King Amun made a very specific description in the codex, which can be corroborated with Yiwen's oral experience and help her break through the current bottleneck.
Just as Eru Lomei was reading a book, a soft light suddenly emanated from the room, and circles of strange invisible fluctuations spread outward, the center of the fluctuation twisted for a while, and then collapsed into a swirl-like gap, and beams of molten golden streamers emerged from the vortex, spinning and spreading outward.
Sensing the familiar aura, Eru Romei did not shy away, but silently closed the page and quietly observed the scene. With the whirlwind rising, her long silver hair fluttered in the wind, and the whole person seemed to be in a river of flowing light.
Immediately after, the scene in the study twisted and flicked, and the void tore a pitch-black eyelet.
The pitch-black eyelets suddenly expanded, extending forward with clear spiral penetrations, flickering a few times to form a vague humanoid phantom. The phantom walked in a straight line, like a swimmer emerging from the surface, the blurred outline of his body becoming clearer and clearer, and finally reverted to a heroic and powerful black-haired youth.
"Evan, you're back!?" the silver-haired woman looked at him in surprise and delight, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
β......β
Ivan was full of lumpy black halos, and everything around him was distorted, and he quickly recovered after running his qi and blood. He walked to his chair and sat down straight, his face was pale and he did not speak, and he sat quietly for five or six minutes before his complexion gradually returned to his usual appearance.
In the process, Eru Lomei noticed his strangeness, and did not almost ask questions, turned around and brewed a cup of hot tea, held it in her hand, and stood quietly aside, waiting for him to slowly recover.
"Whew...... I'm exhausted. β
Evan took the tea from his wife's hand, sucked it off in one go, and then let out a long breath.
"What's wrong? what's going on?" asked Eru Romei, who naturally walked over and sat down on his lap.
"Didn't I go to run errands this time?" As he spoke, he subconsciously stretched out his hand and grabbed the other party's flexible waist.
"Yes. β
"Things went smoothly, and I dragged back the planet that I couldn't reach...... It's almost out of force. β
Back then, when the evil king Bardock had a driver, he also used the same method to try to transfer the planet of Gudar from a long distance.
It first covers the planet with an absolute realm, then flies at high speed for a certain distance, and then makes a space jump after gathering enough strength. This process has to be repeated several times, and a certain amount of rest is required before you can safely reach the impossible zone.
And now he is carrying five planets at the same time, and jumping dozens of light-years in one breath, the balance of power between the two sides can be said to be very different.
However, the burden of this transfer was also extremely heavy, almost costing Ivan half his life, and almost paralyzing him from exhaustion.
After all, except for the ethereal conceptual level, the power of the apostles is not unlimited.
If the consumption is too large, he will naturally lose his strength.
One-one-one-one
Of course, what he said now, Eru Luomei would not doubt it, and a pair of narrow and clear beautiful eyes suddenly smiled like a crescent moon, and stepped forward to give a fragrant kiss. She gently hugged her husband's neck, her eyes were full of envy, and she said with a bright face:
"Move the stars and move the moon...... This kind of mythical thing has really been done by you. β
"It is the norm for descendants to surpass their ancestors, and it is not surprising that the pinnacle created by King Amun was surpassed by me. β
Speaking of this, Ivan suddenly narrowed his eyes, as if he thought of something important. Immediately afterward, he radiated his spiritual power and contacted the golden clown who was in the 'White Moon', and after a brief exchange, he quickly showed a reassuring expression:
"The Golden Clown is really watertight, and it deserves my important responsibility. β
"What's wrong?"
"I was just about to remind it to drop an artificial sun to provide enough light and heat energy to the five planets, but the artificial sun was already on the way to launch. Having such a smart subordinate really saves me a lot of thought. β
"The mechanical life you've created is almost the same as a human being. Eru Lomme frowned, and stopped talking, but her concern and precaution about the mechanical life form were palpable.
"Why bother with flesh and blood? You and I can switch between humans and machines at will, are we humans or mechanical beings?"
"Humans, of course!" she replied decisively.
"And what do you think of me?"
"Of course you're human, too. β
"I'm human, and mechanical life is absolutely loyal to me, isn't that enough?"
Evan didn't want to dwell on her more than this issue, so he changed the subject: "The Golden Clown is my subordinate, I will restrain him, you don't have to worry about those impractical things." Is there anything noteworthy in the Empire during my time away from Hyperion?"
"Something indeed!"
The silver-haired woman closed her head slightly, and then said seriously: "With the facilitation of the Federation, the Near East Stars Eton, Noluspa, and El have concluded an offensive and defensive alliance treaty...... They seem to have done so suddenly, specifically to counter the power projection of the Empire. β
"It seems that the development of the empire has made the Federation wary of us, and specially found three kittens to contain us. β
Ivan cast his eyes out the window, looked at the dim yellow sunset on the horizon, and sneered:
"There's nothing to be afraid of, we just need to keep our current territory. When these seven planets are all developed, the Far Eastern Star Domain will become the Far Eastern Royal Court, what can those three kittens do?"
If it had been in the past, he might have been afraid of the three united planets.
However, as the mechanical protoss showed their edge in the Unable Zone, showing strong productivity and organization, he became more and more confident in dominating the Far East.
The scientists and high-level technicians who can be mass-produced in the Machine Empire have developed more than ordinary countries in fifty years in a year, and they can be even faster in the case of direct absorption of technology - why are you salted fish fighting with me!?
For the Menes Empire, which has seven main stars, development is the last word.
It's nothing to be on the defensive for the time being, but after a few years, the strength will be strong, and you will directly tear the encirclement net by hand!
