Hearing this, Jinian's expression suddenly became strange.
"You want it? Didn't you say..."
"I said I wanted it, but I didn't say I wanted to absorb it." Lin Qiye interrupted her thoughts directly, "Although its properties are a bit messy, it is the origin of life after all... This thing may come in handy in the future."
Ji Nian blinked curiously: "What's the big use?"
"You'll know when the time comes."
In memory of: (〝▼皿▼)
"Didn't your mother teach you that you'll get beaten if you finish your sentence?" Ji Nian stamped his feet in anger. "How can you keep me in suspense like this? If you don't tell me, I won't be able to sleep well tonight!"
"…What does your insomnia have to do with me?"
Lin Qiye didn't care about the warning from Jinian. He stretched out his hand and waved it lightly. A touch of darkness wrapped around the pink light ball and completely swallowed it. The moment the darkness completely isolated it, the breath of desire that was constantly emanating also disappeared without a trace.
The origin of darkness can perfectly block the breath of the origin of life from leaking out. Even if Lin Qiye carries it close to his body, it will not affect the people around him.
After dealing with the source of life, everyone walked straight out of the cave. At this moment, [God's Desire Paradise] had completely sunk to the bottom of the sea, and some building debris were still floating on the boundless sea.
“By the way, do you want to bring Utopia with me to Daxia?” Lin Qiye turned and looked at Ji Nian.
Ji Nian raised his eyebrows, "Why? Do you want to swallow up our Shangxie Society as well?"
"...You're overthinking it." Lin Qiye pointed to the bottom of the sea. "It won't be long before this fog becomes a battlefield between Daxia and Kexi. No matter how powerful you are, you're only a main god. Can you protect hundreds of thousands of people in Utopia in this war?
Instead of doing that, it would be better to move Utopia directly to Daxia. In this way, unless the entire Daxia is destroyed, your hundreds of thousands of residents will be safe... Of course, if it really comes to that, do you think those Ke-type gods will let you go?"
Jinian's expression became unusually solemn.
She thought about it seriously for a long time, and finally nodded, "What you said makes sense...but why do I always feel like I'm being kidnapped by you?"
"…Then just pretend I never said anything."
Lin Qiye turned around and walked away.
“Wait a minute!” Jin Yi grabbed Lin Qiye, hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth, “Forget it, for the sake of my residents, I will accept being kidnapped! You wait, I will go and ask them to change their course and go directly to Da Xia!”
As soon as Ji Nian finished speaking, his figure hurriedly dived into the deep sea and disappeared.
Seeing this, Lin Qiye raised his lips slightly, turned to Charles and others and said, "You can't fly, so take the boat in memory of the president and go back to Daxia together."
After Charles and others agreed, Lin Qiye flew straight to the horizon.
Looking at Lin Qiye's departing back, Charles and others had subtle expressions.
"Commander Lin is so cruel... President Ji Nian only wanted to recruit a special team from us, but he went so far as to bring the Shangxie Society and their headquarters back to Da Xia." A knight sighed in a low voice.
"But with the top fighter like President Ji Jian, our chances of winning are much greater."
"Yeah... Now, the entire fog is almost cleared by Commander Lin."
“…”
When Lin Qiye returned to the sky, Nyx and others had been waiting for a long time.
"Who is that girl?"
Nyx had been watching the sea, taking in everything that had just happened. When he saw Lin Qiye coming back, he finally couldn't help but ask.
At the same time, Athena and Artemis' ears pricked up at the same time.
Seeing Nyx's expression, Lin Qiye knew that she had probably misunderstood, and said with a wry smile, "Just a friend..."
"Just friends?"
"certainly."
"Okay." Nyx seemed a little regretful. "Actually, you're not young anymore. Although the situation is a little tense right now, you still can't neglect your lifelong event... If it doesn't work out, you can have a few children first and I'll help you raise them."
Lin Qiye paused.
He was silent for a moment.
"Mother……"
"Um?"
"I am married."
Nyx was stunned, and Athena and Artemis beside her opened their mouths in surprise...
Nyx wanted to ask something, but seeing the sadness in Lin Qiye's eyes, she didn't ask any more questions. She just nodded slightly and said softly: "Okay, it's good to get married..."
Lin Qiye hummed and turned to look in a certain direction in the fog:
"It's time to go back..."
…
Daxia.
Night Watch Headquarters.
"Now, as the acting commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch, I will initiate the sixth vote on the 'Winter Plan'..."
In the dim conference room, more than a dozen figures sat around a round table. Shen Qingzhu, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at everyone calmly, "Those who agree with the 'Winter Plan' proposal, please raise your hands."
After the words fell, several of the dozen or so people present raised their hands in agreement, while the rest frowned, as if they were still struggling.
Shen Qingzhu saw this, his expression did not change at all, and he said calmly:
"Everyone present here is a key figure in the political and business circles of Daxia. I believe that I don't need to explain the current situation that Daxia is facing... The 'Winter Plan' is a proposal that has been discussed countless times within the Night's Watch. It is the best solution for Daxia when facing the worst situation.
Of course, if you have any better proposals, you might as well put them forward now.”
After a brief silence, a hesitant voice sounded:
"Is this plan... too pessimistic? If we really implement it according to the plan above, with the population of Daxia, the daily productivity loss will be astronomical, and doing so will cause a huge panic."
"I agree with this view." Another figure nodded. "Da Xia has faced countless disasters and crises so far. Even when faced with sieges from many divine kingdoms, we were able to successfully stop them from entering the war zone. This time we only have one enemy, so I don't think such a big show is necessary."
Someone took the lead in proposing it, and others also expressed their agreement. The originally silent meeting room suddenly became lively.
Shen Qingzhu narrowed his eyes slightly, and his low voice sounded again:
"First, the reason why Daxia was able to survive the siege of many divine kingdoms was because there was a gap between the major divine kingdoms. The only battle that truly faced a siege was the Battle of Chennan Pass, when only two major divine kingdoms participated, and there was a time difference before and after the attack. Even so, Daxia suffered the heaviest war casualties in history.
Second, during the Chennan Pass Battle, the Great Xia Court was in charge, but this time it was different;
Third, the Cthulhu mythology is different from any mythology on Earth. They don’t even need to mobilize any secondary combat forces. With just the three pillar gods, they can destroy all the kingdoms of God you mentioned.
Fourth... So far, it is not 'you' but us who have successfully stopped the enemy outside the pass... What Daxia has experienced along the way, and how many people have sacrificed for it, to you are just words in the information, but to us, it is history that we have experienced personally.
So please don’t use your assumptions to question our unforgettable past.”
