"Li, don't worry, I'm just controlling its growth rate. It will be born after three months, not a month. If you don't control it, you'll die. Su Xiangli stretched out her hand and said gently.

Leigh hesitated and asked, "Will my child be okay?" It wasn't until Su nodded that she took Sue's hand and stood up with her strength.

Su held Li in his arms, sensed her weak body, and said, "Li, for me, you are much more important than a child. "Li was originally a powerhouse with fifth-order abilities, but now she is even weaker than ordinary people. Most of her life force has been condensed into the baby in her womb.

Hearing Su's words, Li immediately shook her head and said softly but firmly, "No, this child is yours and mine." I must give birth to him, whatever the price is! ”

"He'll be born." Sue said, hugging her arms tightly.

After receiving Sue's assurance, Li felt the warmth and security of the past from Sue's embrace, and as soon as her mood relaxed, endless tiredness immediately came up. She groaned softly, and as soon as her body went limp, she fell asleep in Sue's arms.

Su put her back in her sleeping bag and covered her, then left the tent and asked Rigore in detail about what had happened since she left.

Shortly after Sue leaves, Leigh discovers that she is pregnant. However, after pregnancy, the fetus developed far faster than she imagined, and the pressure and demand on her body soon broke the critical point, and Rei began to lose energy, and after a few days, her body was so weak that her ability level began to slowly decline, and no matter how hard she tried to eat, it was useless. Only Rigore, Quinn, and a doctor knew about Leigh's pregnancy. After examining Leigh's body closely, the doctor appeared to be extremely frightened, insisting that Leigh was not pregnant, but that she had only a parasitic alien creature in her womb. After the examination, the doctor planned to operate on Reisaku, who had not yet come off the operating table, in order to remove and kill the immature alien.

Afterwards, according to Leigh, the doctor insisted on proceeding with the operation despite her objections, so she killed him. Regaure and Quinn have no way of verifying the truth of what Leigh is saying, and their identities and shared combat experience make them naturally on Leigh's side. However, both Rigory and Quinn actually had a doubt in their hearts, that is, during the physical examination, Li was under general anesthesia from the cervical spine down, and it stands to reason that she was completely unable to move within half an hour, and the doctor also had third-order ability, but he died in Leigh's hands. This process is full of mysteries, at least Rigore asked himself if Li could not resist the effect of the narcotics if she changed her body, let alone kill a third-order ability in less than three minutes.

The scene of the medical room was a mess, littered with flesh and limbs, and the doctor had been completely torn apart, barely finding a large piece of flesh. There is no way to tell what really happened at that time.

The matter was swept under the rug. Rigorei wanted to wait for Sue to come back, believing that Li's pregnancy was indeed Su's child, because he felt a little Su's breath from Li's womb. But in the next few days, Rei's body weakened at a faster rate, and she had to sleep at least half a day of the day, even when she was awake, she was a little groggy. Later, Rei fell asleep almost all day, and worst of all, her appetite was no longer exuberant, and sometimes she even forgot to eat. Or when Rigoray realizes that something is wrong, he will force her to eat something.

It was at this time that Spike started a rebellion. Then, at a critical moment, the rebels received strong reinforcements. However, Li, who is also the commander of the left-behind troops and the strongest individual combat force, has fallen into a state of complete inability to fight. In addition to the squad-wide street battles under the complex terrain, Rigore's command level was completely incomparable to Li's, and his personal combat effectiveness was much inferior, and under the siege of a group of suddenly more fourth-order ability, he was powerless to turn the tide of the battle, and after paying heavy casualties, he had to withdraw from the Steel Gate and stay in the steel mill, using the terrain here to fight against the invaders. If Sue doesn't come back, he'll have to go back to base N69. He might be able to hold out a little longer, but Leigh's health is deteriorating, and only the base has good enough medical conditions.

"Ledesma really didn't pay attention to this guy." Sue whispered a little self-deprecatingly, and then asked, "So what was Victor doing during this time of the rebellion, and did he stand with Ledesma?" ”

Rigore thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "I don't know, after Spike's rebellion, there was no news of Victor at all. According to the information obtained from the rebels, only Ledesma and Lola were active in the Five Committee of the Sinking Blade, and the other three had no news and seemed to be missing. One thing that can be confirmed is that the Blade of Perdition is now in the hands of Ledesma. I heard that he was recently expanding his army on a large scale, planning to expand it to 10,000 men, preparing to attack the city of Crane. ”

"Ten thousand? It seems that he wanted to give every man in the prime of life a gun. Sue smiled and said that seeing that Regore, Leigh, and Quinn were still alive, his mind went a lot. Li's condition is not good, but after controlling the growth rate of the embryo, she will gradually recover.

In Rigore's eyes, what was hidden behind Su's beautiful smile was indifferent indifference, an army of 10,000 people, perhaps in Su's heart, was just a bunch of numbers and symbols, which did not mean anything at all, and it was not put in his heart at all.

After a moment's hesitation, Rigore still said what he thought: "Ledesma's tactics have a good chance of success. The number of capable people in Klan City is superior, but there are not a few fifth-order capable people among them, and there is not a single sixth-order ability. Relying on the absolute superiority of ordinary warriors in numbers, it is completely possible to capture Crane City. With the recipe potions for Crane City, plus the armament of the Iron Gate and the supply capacity and human resources of Midnight City, Ledesma could theoretically build an army of 30,000 men. With a force of this size, not only can they rule the entire Western Regions of the Great Lakes, but they can also defeat independent organizations such as the Brotherhood of Alloy in the surrounding areas, and expand their power to the south, and possibly even reach the Caribbean. This should be the true dream of Ledesma? ”

"He wants to be the Father of the Federation for a new era?" Sue, who knew some of the history of the Federation, smiled and said noncommittally: "If you want to realize this dream, I'm afraid 30,000 people are not enough." ”

Li Gaolei looked at Su with a somewhat complicated expression, sighed, and said, "Thirty thousand? In front of a truly high-level ability, no matter how many people there are, it is useless. Even if he did arm a team of 10,000 men, I'm afraid he wouldn't be your opponent, am I right, Chief? ”

Su looked at Rigore, and after thinking about it, he decided to tell the truth to this servant who followed his birth and death:

"It's going to take some time."
