What can I do? I thought to myself.

I thought of the egg again, the Witch King had said to activate the runes on it if I thought I could no longer protect it. I don't know what the consequences of activating the runes will be, and I never mentioned it, but at least one thing is certain—the Witch King probably foresaw this situation and thought that we would not be able to escape the enemy on our own.

But I can't show it, even the slightest bit of pessimism or panic, now everyone is panicking because of the fall of the Witch King, and I am their last psychological support.

"There's no need to rush." I said nonchalantly, "Now that the fleet has accelerated to its limit, no matter what we do, things will not get better or worse anytime soon."

"Now, I want you to report to me on the options for hiding places, and after listening to the reports, I will make a decision."

The rudders thought that I had a countermeasure in my heart, and soon calmed down and began to report, I listened attentively, the whole process was expressionless, and the whole person was like a cold sword pestle there, which made the rudders of the report more cautious, for fear of being picked out by me to find out something, but in fact, I was thinking about another completely unrelated matter......

I remembered that when I first learned swords, I once asked my master, "Why do most sword cultivators like to have a cold face and a richer expression?" ”

The master replied, "Because they are not strong enough." ”

I was puzzled.

The master explained: "Because their strength is insufficient, they are often worried in their hearts, if they are seen by the opponent, they will inevitably be defeated before they fight, so they have to have a cold face, and they can't figure out the details on the other side, thinking that this sword cultivator is a cold-blooded killer, and they are timid before they fight, and the sword cultivator with a cold face will probably be able to win the battle." At the root of it, kendo relies most on quick calculations, the fast wins and the slow loses, and the speed of calculation is greatly affected by the mentality, although a cold face can not improve the mentality, but at least it can avoid the collapse of the mentality, maybe it can also make the mentality of others collapse, it is also a more practical choice. ”

I let out an "oh" in disbelief.

The master bragged and bragged, and added: "But a sword cultivator with such strength as the master has a very good mentality at all times, so there is no need to be cold-......faced when he is giggling all day long."

"Master, you're lying!" I interrupted, "The last time I saw you dating that purple-haired witch messenger, I kept a cold face the whole time, and no matter how much the other party teased you, I didn't laugh. At the time, I thought you were deliberately pretending to be cool, but I didn't expect it to be ......."

Before I could finish speaking, the master shouted: "Criminals look at the sword!" ”

……

Now I'm the swordsman with a cold face, but it's a pity that my enemy doesn't collapse because of this, and I can only barely maintain my own mentality at most.

The debriefing lasted a whole day and finally came to an end, and I quickly selected one of the helmsmen's proposals, and said that although his thoughts were still incomplete, the end result was exactly the same as mine—and everyone looked at the lucky one with envy.

But in fact, I just chose a plan that didn't look too bad, if the star evil really came from an existence higher than our universe, then no matter how we hid, I am afraid it would be clear in the eyes of the other party, and it would not make much sense to dwell on the choice of hiding place.

Soon, the fleet redirects and enters an irregular galaxy with an area of stars and very dense dust, where we plan to hide.

It took the fleet almost 20,000 years to reach its designated location, and of course, since the fleet's speed was infinitely close to the speed of light, not much time passed on the starship. Shortly after taking refuge in the hideout, Starevil searched for us, and our choices had a little effect, but not much. Starevil ignored us for a while, but just as they were about to leave, they suddenly turned around and lunged in our direction - my guess was correct, Starevil was indeed able to receive instructions from higher beings.

The battle inevitably took place, and there was nothing to say about the process, but we reached the hiding place first, knew the area better than the stars, and devised traps in the dense stars and stardust, and finally annihilated the enemies who were tracking.

But there was no point in that, and the stars who were chasing and killing in other directions successively completed their original tasks and began to hunt us instead. We lose 1-2 starships in almost every battle, and in the first 10,000 years after entering the hiding ground, there are less than thirty starships left in the fleet, and the total population of Uminus has dropped by 40%, and all the stars have finally gathered in this galaxy to surround us.

I know it's time to activate the runes on that egg.

Once again, I lifted the ban and removed the egg from the jade box. When I placed my finger on the red rune of the eggshell and injected a sword intent, the usage of the rune immediately came to mind.

The Witch King left me a power that is divided into two parts, the first of which has a fixed effect, which, when activated, teleports the egg hundreds of millions of light-years away; The other part is at the user's disposal, and I can use it to get rid of the stars directly, but with a little calculation, I will find that this force is only enough to destroy those who are closer, and those who are a little farther away can do nothing; It is also possible to jump the entire fleet and make it reach another galaxy in an instant, which can temporarily escape from the encirclement of the Star, but in time, the Starevil will chase after it again.

I looked at the star map projected by the Sky Surveyor, stars, stardust, fleets, stars...... A plan is taking shape in my head.

This time, instead of putting the egg back in the jade box, I walked out of the room with it in my arms. I immediately convened a council of helmsmen, at which I announced my plan, and as I expected, there was no objection, and in recent years the situation of the fleet has become more and more precarious, and my position has become more and more secure.

The plan began immediately.

First of all, I need to calculate a suitable position, but this is not complicated, and Jian Xiu is the best at calculating, and I can quickly calculate the appropriate coordinates without even relying on the assistance of the Wanyan Thousand Machine Array.

But before I could actually activate the runes, I hesitated.

Once my finger is tapped, the egg will instantly appear hundreds of millions of light-years away, and we will face the most dangerous situation since we fled, and I may never see my child again, even though I have never seen her before, she is only an egg, an egg I laid for the Witch King.

But compared to the witch, Umin's feelings for his offspring are still stronger, and after thinking for a while, I took off the jade jue on my body, which is also a magic weapon, but since I have achieved swordsmanship, I will no longer use it.

I used my sword intent to split the jade jue in two, half of which was attached to the eggshell, and the other half remained by my side, if I was lucky enough to survive this crisis, perhaps, the people who hatched from the eggs in the future would be able to meet me again through the jade jue.

Hearing this, Tang Li couldn't help but exclaim "ah", and even Xia Ye showed a surprised expression:

"It's difficult, isn't this egg hatching ......?"

"Not bad." Tang Yue nodded and said, "I also always thought that the person who hatched from this egg must be very similar to the Witch King, and it is even possible that this is the Witch King's rebirth method...... Until I see you.

"The Witch King once said to me, 'You're just one of them,' and now it seems that He didn't lie to me, thinking that He had another way to be reborn, and this egg is just a literal continuation of the bloodline......"

Tang Yue looked at Tang Li.

"Tang Li, you are not me after being reborn, you are the offspring of me and the King of Witches. And I am your mother. ”
