The universe twists before your eyes......

The blood pupil flickered in front of him, and he returned to reality. In front of him, Boya sat lazily on the altar, smiling at him.

"You already know what happened next. Our civilization has been attacked by the whole universe because it has made too many enemies. We have paid a huge price for this, and in the end, we can only leave this path of honoring the king. ”

At this point, Boya sighed. "The former Claudir fighting nation perished. But our civilization still exists, right here, right under your feet. Just silently waiting, waiting for a person to complete this road of honoring the king and inherit everything we have. ”

Boya's voice was heavy and full of anticipation, but the reaction of the blood pupil was another matter. The first thing he said when he woke up was.

"What's that?"

"Huh?" Boya was stunned. "What are you asking?"

"That black mist balloon!" The sound of the blood pupil suddenly became urgent. "What's that?"

"That thing ......," Boya fell silent.

Opposite him, the blood pupils showed an unprecedented look of urgency. I don't know what Lu Dao is, from the moment he saw the fog balloon, the blood pupil felt an extremely strange feeling, as if the fog balloon was inextricably linked to him, even if he only glanced at it, it was like seeing the depths of his soul.

It was naked, a throbbing that went straight to the deepest part of his soul, and he couldn't help but react.

In appearance, it looked like a cluster of demonic eyes. But who's to say it doesn't look like an embryo?

From the bottom of the abyss, the fetal movement of the devil?

Boya remained silent. Time passed little by little, and before I knew it, the atmosphere became oppressive. Blood Pupil and Boya both stood quietly on the altar like wood carved clay sculptures.

Behind the two, Robbie and others were also waiting silently. Just like when you first entered.

In fact, don't look at the blood pupil that has stayed in the dream for thousands of years, but on the outside, it is only fleeting, not even a minute. So no one, including Robbie, knew what he had just been through. Not to mention that the blood pupil of the Dao Dao saw Clodil's life.

After a long time, Boya sighed. Shook his head.

"That thing...... We call it a cocoon. ”

"Cocoon?"

"I can't describe anything to you. Because even now, I can't organize the language of it. Boya's face became solemn and said seriously. All I can tell you is that it's important, very, very important. ”

"The reason why we are under siege by other civilizations is because of its existence."

"What!?"

Blood Pupil was startled. In his mind, Claudier's destruction was due to excessive expansion and domineering methods of conquest. After all, no civilization would tolerate such an aggressive civilization. Even if Crodir's conquest sent a lot of commercial planets to major civilizations, it could not be tolerated forever.

But he didn't expect it. The reason why Crodil was really besieged was not because of the conquest, but because of this......

This mysterious black mist mass.

"No need for a reason." Boya seemed to know what the blood pupil was thinking, and said happily. "You have to know that for today's hierarchical world, rules and logic may be the standard of civilized behavior. But in the past era of great chaos, whether a civilization wants to wage war or not, there are only two conditions. ”

"One, it's resources. Second, whether resources are available. ”

"In any civilization, survival must come first. The law of the jungle doesn't just apply to beasts. The same applies to the entire universe. We, too, have only gone a little further than the average civilization. ”

Speaking of which. Boya clapped her hands and stood up from the altar. He glanced at Blood Pupil and Robbie and the others, and smiled slightly.

"That's it. Maybe you'd be interested in listening to it, but unfortunately I don't have time to describe it to you. Now I'm going to put you to the test. This test doesn't require you to fight, and it doesn't require you to use your abilities. Only one question is required for you to answer. ”

"What's the problem?" Blood Pupil asked subconsciously.

He didn't expect that the test of Boya would be so simple, if it was just a question, what was the difficulty?

No, that's not right...... Blood Pupil's heart jumped. Suddenly vigilant.

Perhaps only such a test is harder than a battle. The battle tests his strength, but the problem is a test of his heart.

Looking at the blood pupil's suddenly serious expression. Boya smiled again. There was a look of relief in his eyes.

"I have only one problem." He said this to the blood pupil, very seriously.

"Would you, if you like to, inherit everything we have?"

"Would you like to inherit?" The blood pupil was slightly stunned, and involuntarily repeated.

Isn't this nonsense?

He had gone through a lot of trouble to get here, and he had experienced countless threats. Isn't it just to get Crodir's legacy? If not to inherit him, why take the risk? Even if it is a mandatory mission of the cosmic mercenary, he can get away with it. The cosmic mercenaries are like using him, but the blood pupil is not a fool. If he wants to get by, it won't be a hard task.

But just as he was about to answer, the blood pupil stopped again.

Do you want to, inherit ......

While...... Yes, of course......

The figures that got up from the ruins one by one flashed in my mind, and the warriors who died in the training nest one by one. Slaves, conquerors. As soon as the picture turned, he flashed his embarrassment and despair at X35, the encounter with Robbie, the playfulness of the twin siblings, and the gentleness of Pandora. And, the eyes of many partners who trust it.

The blood pupil hesitated......

He was silent, silent as the eternal universe. Like a cold reef at the bottom of the sea.

Inherit?

What to inherit?

Strength or responsibility??

The picture turned again, and the blood pupil saw himself drenched in blood again. Climb up from the ruins of the end times, collecting food bit by bit. The sandworm that he had painstakingly killed, but most of it was inedible. In the icy sewers, he and Lil hug each other, relying on each other's body temperatures to keep warm. There were also a lot of scavengers outside the room who were exposed to the cold wind.

How difficult it is to live......

He wants to live, and he just wants to live. So much for.

His eyes flashed again, and the blood pupil returned to reality. I saw Boya in front of me, and I also saw my companion behind me. Boya's gaze is expectant, while the gaze of his companion is ...... But it's just worry and concern.

Expectation and care, where is it light, where is it heavy?

Blood Pupil tilted her head and suddenly smiled. Laughing so happily, so relaxed. It was as if he had been freed from a burden that was weighing on him.

In the midst of a silent laughter, he turned his head and said to Boya seriously.

"I'm sorry ......"

"I don't want to."
