A huge insect, seemingly dead, was dragged on the ground, leaving a long trail along the way. Several legs were hanging there, motionless, and even its eyes were rolled up like dead fish.
From the outside, it looked like he was dead.
But the insects all rely on sensing, not to mention Baizhi and Baili Tian, who knew very well that this guy was just pretending to be dead.
The sky was covered with dense swarms of insects of different sizes and shapes. The man and the ball were not afraid and calmly found a gap to stop.
Baili Tian left Sykes behind.
The huge insect fell to the ground with a "thud", its belly facing upwards, but its eyes were still rolled up, and it didn't move.
Bai Zhi: "Stop pretending."
Sykes did not move.
"Oh, since he's dead, let's bring him into the spaceship for research." Bai Zhi said lightly.
Sykes blinked his eyes, and in an instant his body turned over, with his feet on the ground. His eyes bulged, but they were no longer dead eyes, and he looked refreshed.
"...Why are you here?" Sykes' voice was a little weak, with a hint of despair.
Why did I come all the way here and actually meet this devil? !
When Sykes regained his freedom and summoned insects to attack the Zerg King, he was full of vigor and vitality. Even during the large-scale attack by the Federation, when he knew that the Zerg might not win, he still rushed towards the federal army to formally meet the enemy.
——This is its spirit, the spirit of not fearing death.
But even so, it has never thought of going back for revenge since leaving Lexing. Why is that?
Of course, there was no real loss in Lexing because of it, but it was mostly because of... fear.
Yes, it's scared.
The white-faced girl in front of me with glasses is not an enemy, nor is she the Insect King. She is a devil!!
So it had no intention of going back for revenge, it just wanted to stay away from them, as far away as possible...
But it never expected that even after running here, it could still be found by this devil!
After hearing what it said, Bai Zhi said calmly: "If I weren't here anymore, you would have died, and your Zerg race would have been completely wiped out by the Federation."
Sykes was startled.
Then it thought of the interstellar missiles that hadn't hit them, and the strange spaceship that had appeared at that time...
It turns out that was all her!
Thinking about it this way, it was indeed she who saved the Zerg. Without her, the Zerg, who had just fought a great battle and had not yet recuperated, would have been unable to defeat the federal army.
"Then what are you going to do?" Sykes looked suspicious.
Bai Zhi looked at it. Hei Dou blinked and tilted his head slightly: "I said I want a species alliance, I want you and humans to coexist peacefully. What do you think?"
Sykes: “???”
It blinked confusedly and looked at Baizhi in disbelief.
However, the other party did not say anything and just looked at it calmly.
She...seriously?
After Sykes realized what was happening, he immediately raised his voice and said loudly—
"Impossible! Zerg and humans are natural enemies. Humans want to kill us all and use our bodies as resources, and we also want to feed on humans to increase our strength. We can't coexist peacefully!"
Baizhi didn't say anything.
Sykes gnashed his teeth and said, "There's absolutely no way the Zerg can coexist peacefully with humans, and humans can't coexist peacefully with us either. Don't even think about it!"
Hearing this, Bai Zhi finally nodded, the mechanical arm pushed her gold-rimmed glasses, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly——
"Okay, I know, so I was just kidding you."
Sykes: “…”
Bai Zhi: "The joke is over, let's go, I just helped you, now it's time to get paid."
The original owner's wish was not to make intelligent creatures equal, and certainly not to allow humans and Zerg to coexist peacefully. The original owner's wish was only for the Zerg. Baizhi only intervened this time to make Tuanzi's living conditions better in the future.
Of course, help Baili Tian as well.
This was all promised to him before.
As for species federation and peaceful coexistence, as a girl, she is not very interested.
Sykes: “???” What are you going to do again?
And wait!
I didn't ask you to help me, why should I be paid?!
Sykes was quite confused, but Baili Tian was already dragging it towards the spaceship, with the white dough standing on his shoulder, very steadily.
"Emperor!" A bug became anxious.
Aren't they beating humans?
Why did they stop fighting in the middle of it? Why didn't they just stop there? The Emperor was even dragged away by a guy who smelled like both human and Zerg...
So what is this for?
These bugs who completely and unconditionally obeyed their superiors were dumbfounded. Sykes yelled a few words, told them to wait, and let Baili Tian drag it back to the familiar spaceship.
As for what to do?
Sykes doesn’t know either!!
"What did you say?" Baili Kun stood up, looking confused.
The person reporting this fell to the ground, head bowed, his voice trembling slightly. "Prince... Prince Baili Xuan met with misfortune. On his way back, he was stopped by Eliza Xiaobai. That man-worm monster... killed the prince..."
The prince was dead. The person reporting the incident knew the king was furious without even looking up, so he kept his head down, fearing that the king would vent his anger on him.
"Bang!" Everything in the king's hands fell to the ground. He sat in the chair with a dull look in his eyes, unable to speak for a long time.
"Your Majesty! Please accept my condolences. Please take care of yourself at this time!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Federation should be given priority."
"General Mu is feigning a retreat to lure the Zerg to Wuxing. This is a critical moment for the Federation."
"Your Majesty, please accept my condolences."
…
The court officials who were in the meeting were talking at once. They were trying to comfort the king, but also told him to put state affairs first.
In the eyes of these court officials, a prince who deserted the battlefield was definitely not as important as the Federation, nor as important as their lives.
But Baili Kun wouldn't think so.
He has few sons, and the most talented one among them is Baili Xuan. He has high hopes for him and cares about this son very much.
Now that his son is dead, these people are so casual as to say condolences?
Baili Kun looked at them, gritting his teeth. "That was the prince of the Federation royal family, the next heir to the Federation. How could he be killed like this? Eliza Xiaobai! I will never let her go!!"
He slapped the chair and stood up suddenly: "Come here! Dispatch all the troops and split them into two. One part will go to Lexing to capture the other dumplings, and the other part will go to the front line and give me Eliza Xiaobai——"
"Your Majesty!! Please calm down!" The Prime Minister stepped out and immediately shouted loudly.
"I'm calm? Why should I be calm? Eliza Bai has caused us to be in this state and killed the Federal Prince. I must tear her into pieces!" Baili Kun roared.
He hadn't had any rest recently and his mental state was already quite bad. Now he heard such bad news. He felt dizzy, his head was throbbing, and veins on his forehead were popping out.
The hand that had already been pinched to bleed was now left with deep marks on the same mark, and new blood seeped out from the palm of the hand again.
Because of what Elizabeth had done, the Federation naturally wanted to kill her to vent their anger.
However, they must also admit that now is not the time to be willful.
The Prime Minister frowned, his face full of disapproval—
"Your Majesty, we've analyzed that the pink color of the dumplings might be related to Eliza White. Her request for a large amount of potion materials from the Federation fully explains everything! The pink dumplings on Lexing are no longer what they used to be. They can knock spaceships away. Even if Eliza White isn't here, how can we possibly catch them?"
Another senior official nodded and looked at Baili Kun with disapproval. "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is right. We all know that the Zerg were able to win because of Elizabeth. She is simply too powerful. We can't become her enemy until we come up with a way to deal with her!"
"Are we going to keep enduring this?!" Baili Kun gritted his teeth, his eyes red as if he wanted to eat someone.
He had endured it before, even when Eliza Xiaobai helped the Zerg.
But now, his son is dead and he really can't bear it anymore!
Someone among the courtiers pursed his lips and said, "Your Majesty, please remember that you have only just ascended the throne. Your position is still unstable. The Federation's greatest crisis is imminent. Your Majesty, please do not act impulsively, otherwise it may be difficult for the citizens of the Federation to support you."
The words were polite, but they were threats.
If Baili Kun continued like this, the citizens would not know about it, and the court officials would all have opinions about him. He had just ascended the throne and had not yet won everyone over, so there were still many people who had opinions about him.
Baili Kun understood what he meant and stared at him as if he wanted to kill him.
The man lowered his head but straightened his back, obviously not changing his opinion.
"Are you threatening me?" Baili Kun spoke word by word.
Under such a gaze, the man couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
Just when everyone thought the king was about to get angry, there was a faint noise outside. Because they were inside the palace, they could not hear it clearly.
Everyone was stunned.
This time even the court officials were confused and had no idea what was happening outside.
Soon, someone came in hurriedly with a panicked look on his face.
"What's going on?" Baili Kun asked with a frown.
The man looked at the court officials, pursed his lips, took a step forward, and whispered in Baili Kun's ear: "Citizens of the Federal Capital and those who retreated from Wuxing have blocked the Royal Palace and the State Palace. They...they..."
The man obviously couldn't say the rest of the words.
When Baili Kun saw this, his heart skipped a beat.
Outside, there was a lot of noise at this moment.
The federal media has great power, and those media outlets gather information everywhere and report it online in real time.
What about the Federation's failure, Eliza Xiaobai and the Zerg joining forces, the prince deserting the battlefield, General Mu and his men withdrawing from the battle planet, the Wuxing people also being evacuated, and the remaining Zerg will attack the Federation...
How could the citizens of the Federation possibly sit still?!
Are they going to wait until the Zerg reach the Imperial Capital?!
There was once a time in history when the Zerg attacked the Federation. At that time, humans suffered extremely heavy casualties. Many people were displaced and lost their loved ones. If they had not fought for their lives in the final moment, the Zerg would not have been able to retreat!
Because of their heavy losses, they could not withstand the Zerg's second attack and had to restore order and improve their strength as soon as possible.
Therefore, they chose the Baili royal family to become the king of the federation, to lead the development of the federation and to eliminate the Zerg.
Obviously, the Zerg is very difficult to eliminate.
So over the years, the power of the royal family has grown, and the number of Zerg has increased instead of decreased.
Will this time be like the last time, with heavy casualties?
The Federation launched an attack on the bugs, but was defeated and was attacked by the bugs instead, putting their lives in danger. It was difficult for the citizens of the Federation not to look for the Baili royal family.
Why are bugs so invincible? Because Eliza White helps!
The Federation was defeated in a battle that was sure to be won because of her appearance.
And why did Eliza Xiaobai want to go against the Federation? It was because of the Baili Royal Family!
First, the Federation requisitioned Lexing and captured Tuanzi as a pet. Later, Eliza Xiaobai came to rescue Tuanzi, and the Federation royal family also attacked repeatedly...
The hatred between them cannot be explained in just a few words.
Even Baili Kun said at his inaugural press conference that if they couldn't win, they would be friendly first, and they would fight back when their technology level improved in the future, right?
In this situation, Eliza White caused them so much trouble, and when they couldn't find Eliza White, they could only go to the King of the Federation.
“We want peace!”
"We demand an explanation from the king who started the war!"
"Baili Kun, step down!"
"Get off the stage!"
…
The shouts outside became more and more unified and clearer.
The Prime Minister's face was gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Your Majesty, we should find a way to solve the problem of the Zerg now. Although Wu Xing may be able to stop the Zerg, we must also prepare for the worst and ask for peace with Eliza Xiaobai!"
As long as their ranged attacks are effective against the Zerg, they still have a chance.
If the Zerg had not suffered any casualties under the protection of Elizabeth, what would become of the Federation if so many Zerg suddenly rushed into it?
Therefore, they had to sue for peace.
——It’s useless to make peace with the Zerg, so I can only make peace with Eliza Xiaobai.
His attitude was very bad, but this time, Baili Kun did not lose his temper. He just sat dejectedly in the chair with a pale face.
He has completely lost the support of the people...
In front of these court officials, he could no longer be tough. If he was not careful, he would not be able to continue to be king.
"Okay..." His voice was hoarse, "Please draft a letter to Elizabeth."
The secretary agreed immediately.
There were also some court officials who firmly stood on Baili Kun's side, such as Zuo Xuan. At this moment, he took a step forward and said through gritted teeth -
"We are seeking peace with Eliza Xiaobai, but we absolutely cannot expect her to agree to our request. Right now, our hope should still be on Wu Xing. As long as Wu Xing can keep most of the bugs, we will win!"
Baili Kun licked his dry lips and said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, there is also Wu Xing..."
Wu Xing is their hope, and also his hope as the king. If they can finally get rid of the Zerg, perhaps... he can continue to be the king.
Thinking of this, Baili Kun perked up and stood up. "Keep an eye on the situation on Wu Star. When General Mu and the others evacuate Wu Star, they'll be stationed between Wu Star and Quan Star as the first line of defense against the Zerg! Few Zerg will make it out alive from Wu Star. They can't attack from a distance, so we'll have to defeat them one by one."
Thinking of the real murderer who killed his son, he gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t believe that Elizabeth can protect every bug!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the people sitting next to him in front of some machinery and equipment stood up suddenly.
"What's going on?" Everyone looked in that direction.
That was the place to monitor the situation at the front and receive news from the front and other places. They stayed here because they were worried.
The man stood up and said in shock, "After General Mu and his men retreated from the Battle Star to the Martial Star, the Zerg didn't pursue them at all! All the Zerg stayed on the Battle Star!"
"What?!" everyone was shocked.
Wuxing is where they are ambushing!
Are these bugs staying on the Battle Star because they don't plan to move forward, or because they know that there are countless bombs buried on the Martial Star?
Baili Kun paced back and forth anxiously, his eyes panicking.
"Your Majesty, General Mu asks what we should do now?"
Baili Kun was extremely worried. After a while, he said, "Have you found out what the reason is?"
The man shook his head.
"Insects can't be that smart. They definitely don't know that Wu Xing has an ambush!" someone said.
"But Elizabeth might know!"
"Even if it knew, could it still command the insects?"
"Then how do you explain why they didn't move forward?"
Everyone was arguing and had their own opinions.
If the other party simply refused to move forward, that would be fine, and it could even resolve the crisis. But if the other party knew that Wu Xing had a problem and refused to move forward, that would be terrible.
At this moment, the pupils of the person staring at the machine shrank, and his voice was horrified -
"Your Majesty! Eliza White sent us a message!!"
They were still writing a letter to each other, but the other party actually sent them a letter first? ?
Everyone hurried over.
"What did she say?" the federal high-ranking official asked impatiently.
The letter was very simple, with only one sentence:
[It seems there are many dangerous objects on your Wuxing planet that could very well destroy the entire planet. No need to thank me, I've already helped resolve it. - Her Majesty Queen Eliza.]
Everyone: “…”
Their hope!!
At that moment, Baili Kun felt dizzy and fell backwards.
The people behind him quickly supported him.
He had to rely on others to stand steadily. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, there was confusion in his eyes and his mind went blank for a moment.
Outside, countless Federation citizens were shouting in unison. Far away on the front lines, the Zerg were watching covetously. Their last resort had already been solved by a white ball...
How did he end up attracting this evil star?
If he had returned the dumpling to Eliza right away when he first knew about her, and hadn't fought with her, opposed her, or thought about getting rid of her...would things be different now?
However, there are no ifs.
General Mu was wondering why the Zerg didn't follow him when he saw a familiar spaceship approaching.
——Elizabeth!
When many people saw this spaceship, they hated it to the core.
However, they dared not act rashly, as Wuxing was full of bombs, and if they were not careful, disaster could occur at any time!
If they fail to blow up the bugs but blow themselves up, they will be sinners.
They are waiting for the Zerg to arrive.
Therefore, when they saw the white spaceship, they did not move.
No one knew what the white spaceship was doing on Wuxing. When the hatch opened, the winged man-worm monster flew out. No one knew where it went, and it didn't come back until a long time later.
It took more than three hours from the time the spacecraft appeared to the time Baili Tian returned to the spacecraft.
At this time, the spaceship took off without even looking at them and flew towards the entire star.
No one knows what this spacecraft is here for.
"General Mu..." someone spoke hesitantly.
General Mu was also confused, looking up blankly at the direction where the silver-white spaceship left.
After a while, a buzzing sound was heard.
"The Zerg are coming!" someone exclaimed.
General Mu didn't know for a moment whether he was happy or sad.
He suddenly ordered: "Everyone evacuate in an orderly manner according to the plan!"
"yes!"
Everyone's spaceship responded, and then hundreds of spaceships took off and slowly left Wuxing, giving the Zerg a chance to approach them.
Just as they left Wuxing and the Zerg arrived at Wuxing...
General Mu gave the order with a cold face: "Blast!"
"yes!"
However--
For one second, nothing happened.
Two seconds passed, and still no movement.
Ten seconds passed, and still no movement.
A silver-white spaceship appeared silently beside them. A familiar mechanical female voice rang out from the spaceship, which was picked up by their spaceship and played back to them.
"Are you waiting for the explosion? It won't happen. You are controlling all the bombs remotely. I have blocked all your signals. Now we can't receive any signals on Wuxing. Those bombs can only be used manually."
General Mu: “???”
Shield? ?
So what she was busy doing there just now was shielding the bomb?
Not only did they not stop it, they also watched helplessly?
For a moment, General Mu wanted to command the spaceship to crash into the silver-white spaceship and die with her!
"So, the Zerg are coming soon, why don't you run away?" The voice sounded again.
General Mu: “…”
If Wuxing explodes and half of the Zerg are killed, these people can keep the Zerg out of the entire star.
But now, the Zerg are intact!
How could they possibly defeat all the Zerg and see them turned away?!
General Mu gritted his teeth and said, "Retreat, retreat!"
He was a little confused about what the guy with glasses meant. He had been helping the Zerg all along, but at the same time reminded them that the Zerg were coming. It was as if he was just watching the fun and getting in on the action!
Her intervention directly reversed the situation of the war and made the Federation hate her to the core.
——Elizabeth, she is simply a devil!!
Wuxing fell, but the Zerg were still not killed.
General Mu and his men retreated to the Quan Star. The Zerg did not continue to chase them, but the citizens on the Quan Star were in a panic. Those who had spaceships at home had already fled for their lives towards the Imperial Capital Star.
From Quanxing you will reach the Imperial Capital Star!
The Zerg are really about to reach the Imperial Capital Star and will bring huge disaster to the entire Federation!
There were cries and howls everywhere, and the Internet was filled with wailing. The helpless people gathered outside the palace, venting their anger on the initiator of the war, the king who had offended Elizabeth.
Inside the palace, Baili Kun showed no sign of concealing his irritability and despair.
The court officials argued back and forth but could not reach a conclusion.
They did not send any more reinforcements to General Mu, and they left almost all of their remaining troops in the Federal Palace and the State Palace to protect themselves.
"Elizabeth still hasn't replied?"
"No!"
So everyone started arguing again.
front.
The Zerg stayed on Wu Star and did not head towards Quan Star.
General Mu stayed at Quanxing, constantly discussing countermeasures with General Jin and General Will, but the situation was really difficult and they could not reach a conclusion no matter how hard they tried.
"If we retreat any further... we'll end up on the Imperial Capital Star. We simply don't have the face to return to the Imperial Capital Star like this..."
At this time, the silver-white spaceship appeared again.
General Mu stood up suddenly. He had always prioritized saving his own life, so he had been patient and yielding. But he knew that when he returned to the Imperial Capital, he would have to die to atone for his sins. In this case...
He gritted his teeth and said, "Let's fight her!"
General Jin clenched his fists. "Even if she has a protective barrier, what does it matter? If she dies, she dies. If she dies now, she will sacrifice her life for the Federation!"
General Will didn't say anything, but his attitude didn't mean he was against it.
They don't want to die, but now, they are going to die anyway, so wouldn't it be better to die in a more dignified way?
At this moment, the spaceship that was approaching them stopped, and they caught a sound -
"Talk?"
The three of them were stunned.
As soon as he finished speaking, the hatch of the silver-white spaceship opened and a young man in black flew over.
They had all seen this young man and knew that he was the one who killed Prince Baili Xuan.
He represents Elizabeth and Little White, one person and one ball, always going in and out together.
After thinking for a while, General Mu said, "Open the hatch..."
Soon, the young man flew in.
After he walked in front of them, he folded his wings and his sickle arm disappeared instantly. He looked no different from a normal person. They were all stunned for a moment.
After a while, General Jin gritted his teeth and said, "You are also a human, why do you have to stand on the side of Tuanzi and the Zerg?!"
Baili Tian lifted his eyelids and glanced at him, then said calmly, "None of your business."
General Jin was choked, and General Mu said, "So what exactly do you want to do? What do you want to talk to us about?"
Baili Tian's dark eyes swept over them. For some reason, he carried the aura of a superior, making them feel like they were meeting an emperor...
He said, "Do you want to live? Do you want to save the Federation and drive the bugs out of the Federation's territory?"
Several people looked at each other, pursed their lips and said nothing.
They knew that he would definitely put forward conditions next.
There was a hint of coldness on his handsome face. He stretched out his hand and said in a hoarse voice:
"Formally introduce myself. I am Baili Tian, the eleventh heir of the Baili royal family of the Federation."
The three people's pupils shrank.
General Mu and others continued to retreat, and all the people on the planet had also evacuated. Now, the bugs have reached the entire planet and are about to head towards the imperial capital!
"Don't play dead! Baili Royal Family, you must give us a solution!"
"Quick, get rid of the Zerg!"
"You caused this trouble, so why do you hide in the well-protected Royal Palace and State Palace while leaving us waiting outside?"
"The Baili Royal Family step down!!"
"Baili Kun step down!"
…
The roars below became louder and louder. At this time, Baili Kun and the others were protected and hiding in the palace, which made them despise and angry.
Baili Kun and the others were actually feeling very uncomfortable as well.
If the Zerg really attacks, can they save their lives by hiding in the palace?
The higher-level insects also have intelligence, and they know to deal with the federal high-level officials first, especially the royal family!
Baili Kun slowly stood up and straightened his clothes.
At this point, he wasn't as panicked as before. Listening to the outside shouting for him to step down, he said calmly -
"Everyone, get ready! We're fighting the Zerg to the death! They didn't suffer any casualties, and our Federation also suffered few due to our quick retreat. We will resist to the death and preserve humanity's bloodline."
"Your Majesty..." someone opened his mouth.
Baili Kun: "I know what you are worried about. I will go to the front line and lead the team myself."
Everyone was silent.
After a long while, someone finally whispered, "Why don't we retreat? The interstellar space is so vast. Let's find a place to hide first, recuperate, and then wipe out the Zerg later..."
Still silent.
But many people had some excitement on their faces.
Others angrily retorted, "All the citizens of the Federation are dead, what are we fighting for?! We all unite and resist the Zerg together. We will never lose to a bunch of bugs! And General Mu and his men, what's the point of them retreating? If all else fails, we can just drive our spaceships into the Zerg and perish with them! They're all just cowards!"
"It's not about being afraid of death, it's about preserving our strength. The Federation is still strong now. As long as we can convince Eliza and Xiaobai to stop causing trouble, we'll still have the strength to fight! If we suffer heavy losses early on, what will we do later?"
"Bah, you're just afraid of death, don't put it in such a nice way! And how can we convince Eliza Xiaobai? Who will convince her? Can you do it?!"
"How can you..."
They started arguing again.
"Enough!" Baili Kun gritted his teeth. "I've made up my mind. We still have a chance of winning if we fight to the death. Isn't it just the Zerg? We were able to drive them to Pluto back then, and we can do it now!"
After he finished speaking, he was about to continue issuing orders when he heard someone exclaim, "Elizabeth has replied!"
"What?!"
"What did she say? Is she willing to negotiate?!"
"She said that not only would she not interfere, but she would also ask the Zerg to return to their territory and not interfere with the two races in the future..."
"Conditions?" The king stepped forward.
"Change the king..." The man lowered his head to the extreme.
Baili Kun's body swayed and he took a step back.
He suddenly looked at the courtiers, only to find that they were also looking at him. The emotions in those eyes were suffocating.
At this time, outside, the voices of "Baili Kun step down" became clearer and clearer.
He suddenly collapsed to the ground.
The Zerg are coming soon!
Eliza Xiaobai said that she could stop interfering and even let the Zerg retreat back to their territory. She would no longer interfere with them in the future, on the condition that Baili Kun stepped down.
As the news spread, almost the entire federation issued a voice: "Baili Kun step down!"
It was Baili Kun who started the war and triggered the subsequent chain reaction. The newly crowned king had lost the support of the people, and everyone wanted him to atone for his sins.
Now with Eliza Xiaobai’s words, it fully proves that the other party will intervene to help the Zerg because of Baili Kun!
Under such circumstances, almost no one hesitated to let him step down.
The Zerg are already outside the Imperial Capital Star!
They now not only demand that Baili Kun step down, but even demand that the Baili clan be expelled from the palace. From now on, the Federation will choose a new king.
As for who will be the new king, some people care, while others don't.
At this moment, no one in the palace was indifferent.
Baili Kun had been stripped of the clothes that symbolized the king, and was sitting on a chair with a dull look in his eyes. No one cared about him. They only cared about who was the new king.
Judging from the attitude of the people, they even hope that the new king is not from the Baili royal family!
In other words, everyone has a chance!
"At this critical juncture, the country cannot be without a king for a day. I suggest that the prime minister serve as king and take charge of the overall situation!" someone said.
The Prime Minister lowered his eyes slightly to hide the ambition in them.
"The Prime Minister is the Prime Minister. The King should be chosen from the Baili Clan!"
"The Baili clan is already unpopular. And if we choose the Baili clan, what if Eliza Xiaobai is unhappy and changes her mind?"
"You may consider asking the adults."
"I don't think there's any rush. We should wait until the Zerg leave!"
"Yes, the Zerg are always watching closely, which is always a problem."
"Why aren't you in a hurry? Elizabeth Xiaobai's condition is to replace the king. We just forced Guo... Baili Kun to step down. Doesn't that count as an accomplishment?"
…
They started arguing again.
At this time, someone hurried in from outside to report: "General Mu, General Jin, and General Will are back!"
Everyone was stunned and suddenly quieted down.
No matter what time it is, those who hold military power are powerful forces, especially General Jin, who has always been the general guarding the battle star.
While they were stunned, several generals still in military uniforms hurried in.
Zuo Xuan sneered, "Generals, you retreated quickly during the battle, but why are you rushing here now that we're electing a king? Aren't those Zerg going to defend us?"
General Jin glared at him fiercely: "I am better off fighting the Zerg than you, who are hiding in the back and making sarcastic remarks. If you go to the front lines, you can run faster than me!"
"you--"
"Alright, stop arguing," the Prime Minister said calmly, then looked at the three men. "I wonder what the three generals are doing back? They're still indispensable on the front lines, right?"
General Mu let out a long breath, closed his eyes slightly, and then opened them again with determination: "The Zerg are retreating, and this war won't start for the time being. We've returned to recommend a new king."
Everyone was stunned again.
Someone from the neutral faction stepped forward and asked curiously, "Who do the three generals want to recommend?"
"Do you still remember the eleventh generation heir Baili Yu?" General Mu looked at everyone.
Everyone was stunned and confused.
But Baili Kun, who was at the top, suddenly raised his head and looked at General Mu in disbelief.
The eleventh heir, who was the heir chosen by the previous old king at the beginning, was Baili Kun's biological brother. He was about the same age as Baili Kun, but was more generous and kind.
He was designated as the next heir early on.
However, Baili Yu died early, and only after his death did the king take Baili Kun with him to educate him. In fact, Baili Kun's every move was an imitation of his brother.
When Baili Yu died, the old king was very sad. Fortunately, Baili Kun was also a capable man and understood things quickly.
Others don’t know…
But Baili Kun's heart skipped a beat when he heard Baili Yu's name.
Everyone thought Baili Yu’s death was an accident because Baili Kun and Baili Yu had a very good relationship.
But only he himself knows what caused Baili Kun's "accident".
"Why did you mention Baili Yu?" someone asked puzzled.
General Mu lowered his eyes slightly: "Because the person I recommend is Baili Yu's son, Baili Tian."
Everyone's eyes were blank, and Baili Kun at the top couldn't help but tremble slightly.
