Chapter 87: Heavy
Yesterday, Eve returned to the Fire Seed Association Center from the hospital and immediately searched for information and historical records about Fire Seed energy.
But after reviewing most of the cases, she couldn't find any that were similar to Zai Zai's energy situation.
She went through all of Zai Zai's memories and learned more secrets about the Fire Seed.
It turns out that the victory in the alliance war more than 300 years ago was achieved by using a small child.
No wonder the energy of the Fireseed is the strongest in recent eras; it's because they stole the Queen from the Zerg and removed her core.
It prevented her from returning home and almost caused her to disappear from this world.
Ivana stared at the swaying ball on the table, lost in thought. She had never felt such pain before.
Knowing the truth, how could she still so brazenly enjoy the peace and tranquility she enjoys now? But she is a Northern River Star person, with Northern River Star genes flowing in her veins. Everything that Aled and his people did more than three hundred years ago was for the entire Northern River Star System and for their people. She and all the Northern River Star people now are beneficiaries, so what right does she have to criticize everything her ancestors did for the peace of their descendants?
No matter which side you stand on, it's all so hypocritical.
If it were her in that situation, she wouldn't have done that, but she wasn't the one making the decision then.
When she returned yesterday, she didn't go straight home or to the Fire Seed Association Center, but went to the Federal Headquarters instead.
She was so angry, the pain and fury almost consumed her reason.
She wanted to find Aled, to confront him, and to question everyone who was there and who is still alive.
But as the aircraft passed the monument in the Hallelujah Square, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head, instantly extinguishing her anger.
She parked the aircraft beside the Hallelujah Square and stood in front of the monument for a long time. The towering monument felt like a heavy mountain pressing down on her.
The names on the monument kept changing before her eyes, gradually becoming blurry.
Standing here, she gradually regained her composure.
She is from the planet Northern River, and has no right to criticize anyone who sacrificed for them.
She could imagine that if Logan and the others knew the truth, they would be even more tormented than she was.
And what about Aled? Did he also suffer inner torment and pain when he made the decision?
She thought it must be so; it was precisely because of the pain that she wanted to take care of the little one in every detail, wanting to make it up to her.
On the surface, it's about making amends, but all of this is just an attempt to alleviate his guilt.
It was a hypocritical thought, but she still had no right to criticize.
From where she stood, Evena looked towards the Federation Headquarters building. There were no buildings obstructing the view between the Federation Building and Heroes' Square, so she could clearly see the entire Federation Building.
Standing in front of the south-facing window of the Federal Building, you can clearly see the monument in the middle of the Halleid Square.
Aled's personal office and meeting room face this side.
He looks at the monument every day; perhaps he should be even more ruthless.
Evena had to admit that Aled was a good governor; he was peaceful, diligent, and loved his people like his own children, and he governed the vast Northern River system very well.
He was a good ruler, which does not contradict the crime he committed by stealing other people's children.
All the peace and tranquility in the Northern River System was gained by stepping on the back of a child.
Is it really right to sacrifice one person for the peace and tranquility of the majority?
"President."
The office door was pushed open, and assistant Pansy looked at Eve in surprise, who looked exhausted.
"President, did you not go home all night?"
She saw the president come to the association center yesterday afternoon, and the office lights were on all night, and no one was allowed to come in and disturb him.
Seeing her exhausted expression, she knew she had stayed there all day without going home.
Ivana was brought back to her senses by her voice and turned to look at her. "What is it?"
Pansy walked to the water dispenser, filled a cup of hot drink for her, and placed it in front of her. "President, His Majesty wishes to see you."
"See me?"
Eve was taken aback for a moment, then opened her personal terminal and discovered two missed communications from Aled.
She had muted her personal computer to focus on researching, so she wasn't looking at the computer panel and didn't even notice when a call came in.
"knew."
She got up and walked outside.
Pan Xi followed behind her, looking at her with some concern. "President, why don't you take a rest? His Majesty isn't in a hurry. He said you can go over there when you have time."
"No need."
Aled came to see her at this time, presumably because of the baby. She came to the association center in a bad mood after visiting the baby at the hospital yesterday, so he must have found out something.
If you know, you know; secrets can't be kept forever, and this matter will be exposed sooner or later.
She wanted to see how Aled intended to handle things.
Green Hill North Hospital.
Inside the ward, Anuo was lying on a low table studying language. She had just finished eating and was about to receive an IV drip of 500 milliliters of medicine. She could only go out to play after the IV drip was finished.
She was still thinking about the toy stall from yesterday. She had played with that mecha toy for half a day and was already pretty much done with it. She wanted a new and different mecha toy, and this was too easy.
After studying for a while, her gaze was drawn to Kang Sen next to her. He was sitting beside her, projecting his personal computer onto a low table, and drawing with a stylus.
Seeing Anuo's curious gaze, Kangsen pulled her into his lap and sat her down. "Does our Nuonuo also like to draw?"
Anno shook her head and then nodded. She could draw, but she didn't particularly like it. She just liked to study and modify weapons and machines, which required her to draw some blueprints.
She can only draw these kinds of things, in a very conventional way; she's not very good at drawing other things.
She looked at what Conson was drawing in front of her, which also looked like some kind of machine.
It has a main body and a breakdown, with annotations written next to it, but she doesn't recognize many words yet.
Conson pointed to the drawing and said, "This is the shape of my latest mecha design. This is what it looked like before the variant."
Anno: "Mecha?"
Anno picked up the mecha toy on the table and looked up at Conson.
Conson was charmed by her adorable appearance and said with a smile, "Baby, this is a toy. The mecha I designed is much bigger."
Doris sat down beside them, holding a very thin monitor in her hand, and gently pinched Anno's cheek, smiling as she said, "The mechs designed by Conson can be used to fight while sitting inside."
Anno understood. She had seen it on the advertising screens on the street outside. It was indeed very large, and people could drive and fight inside it.
Unlike the nanotech armor she had seen on Lockin, nanotech armor is more convenient and form-fitting, easier to equip, and its combat effectiveness depends on the user's abilities.
This type of mech has a larger kill range, can be equipped with more types of ammunition and weapons, and is more intelligent, essentially having a robotic companion. It is often used in warfare.
