Jiang Si closed her eyes and smiled, "Okay, then you watch me while I take a nap."
Lingyan gave a soft "hmm," pulled the blanket up a little to cover her, and fell silent, even her breathing becoming shallow, as if afraid of disturbing her.
The sounds of wind, water, and birdsong intertwine in this tranquil, boundless valley brimming with the vitality of plants.
Shu Xubai looked at the two of them, reached out and touched the little skull bat on his shoulder, and chuckled silently. Life is impermanent, with people coming and going. No one can live forever.
The spirit eye accepts its impending death, yet fears it, while simultaneously yearning for the warmth of the stinky zombie and reluctant to leave her.
Ten thousand years old, a ginkgo tree, which can be traced back to more than 10,000 years ago, to the Jurassic period of dinosaurs, how ancient!
Shu Xubai stepped back to A Ying's side, and with a flick of his hand, he used his mental energy to create a barrier so that the stinky zombie couldn't hear him when he spoke.
He clenched his fist, made a microphone shape, and held it to A-Ying's mouth: "Handsome little elf, the elegant and noble vampire lord has a question for you. What are your thoughts on your tree dying?"
Jiang Dandan: "???"
The egg is still awake.
I couldn't fall asleep.
The question posed by this top-tier aquaman is like a dagger piercing the heart.
Is it really true that a player who doesn't want to be a jerk won't even say a nice word?
Aying shifted her gaze from the Spirit Eye and its master back to Shu Xubai: "Lord Shu Xubai, besides the master, the Spirit Eye has spoken the most about you to us."
Shu Xubai was slightly surprised: "That old tree was talking about me? What was it saying about me?"
Ah Ying stared straight at him: "They say you are the master's good friend, that if the master is to die, he will only die at your hands, and that if you are to die, you can only die at the master's hands."
"When the two of you hate each other, you will not hesitate to stab each other in the back. You will bite her neck and suck her blood, and she will rip out your heart and eat it."
"Your relationship is dangerous, bloody, but very strong. No one can shake it, not even the Spirit Eye. That's his assessment of you."
Shu Xubai was even more surprised: "As expected of a tree that has lived for 10,000 years, your assessment is very fair. However, I still want to know, what are your thoughts on your tree dying?"
Aying smiled gently, revealing an extremely tender expression: "I have no opinion. I am the companion spirit of the Spirit Eye, his tree spirit. He said that he would take me with him when he dies."
Shu Xubai looked at the little elf's smile and knew that the smile wasn't directed at him, but rather that the elf was thinking of his tree and that's why he was smiling like that.
She looks beautiful when she smiles, her smile is gentle, and her smile is devoted.
He never expected to witness such a life-or-death scenario in his lifetime.
I saw it on a non-human species.
Tsk tsk, as expected, if you live long enough, you can see all sorts of legendary novelties.
The elegant, noble, and handsome vampire was very displeased and wanted to make things worse. He opened his mouth and asked again, "He said he would take you to your death, and you believed him? I seem to have heard that stinky zombie say that he always wanted you to live."
"You also heard from other companion spirits that he intentionally gave you to that little red sapling so that you could become his companion spirit and live. So, is it possible that when he said he would take you with him when he dies, he was actually just lying to you, you silly little elf?"
Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"
Aquaman is Aquaman.
It's a sharp, piercing wound, and it hits the mark every time.
So when will he publish his book?
Rubbing its little paws together, it seems a little excited.
Aying's smile froze, slowly fading away, her expression gentle yet firm: "Lord Shu Xubai, I am a companion spirit, not belonging to any species known to humans."
"Although our group is not powerful and our numbers are small, we have an innate understanding that we belong to our own tree. When the tree lives, we live; when the tree dies, we die."
“It doesn’t matter if he lies to me, because when he dies, I will die with him. I will never live alone. This is a companion spirit, loyal to its own tree.”
"Clap clap!" Shu Xubai raised his white hands, which looked like they had been soaking in formaldehyde for 100 years, and clapped them: "Okay, I was narrow-minded. I admire your loyalty."
"Now, while your master and your tree are sleeping, summon the other companion spirits and trees here. Build houses where needed, and plant trees where needed."
Ah Ying nodded slightly: "Okay!"
Shu Xubai withdrew the spiritual power that had enveloped them, and instead used it to envelop the bed where Jiang Si and Lingyan were. The powerful spiritual power transformed into a transparent shield, cutting off all external sounds.
The robots and adults jumping off the ship made noises that they couldn't hear or disturb.
Shu Xubai pulled his little friend, the skeleton bat, from the ends of his hair, and they bounced like a ball as they walked away to the place where they would build a house.
Aying waved her huge, transparent wings and came aboard the ship. She instructed the artificial intelligence 520 to contact the flying aircraft and small spaceship that had gone out, so that the companion spirits that had become trees could come back and see their future habitable land.
"The Earth is so big, where do we find it?" Xi Yu stood in front of the holographic projection screen of their spaceship, looking at the panoramic image of a radius of 500 kilometers on the screen, and asked Qin Houqing.
Qin Houqing said angrily, "You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask? I also want to find her as soon as possible so we can make our move while she's weak from childbirth."
Ling Du, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up: "Guan Tang was thrown off their ship by Jiu Feng and Marshal Agares. Is it possible that she met Jiang Si but didn't tell us?"
The Earth ruins that Guantang provided them were completely deserted, overgrown with wild animals and weeds. There was not a trace of any former civilization to be seen.
Therefore, he effectively suspected that Guan Tang was not telling them the truth. She was hiding something, deliberately hiding it, and using their strength to come back to Earth to find Lord Jiu Feng and Marshal Agares!
Xi Yu and Qin Houqing's gazes instantly turned to Ling Du, and they said in unison, "What do you mean?"
Ling Du let out a cold laugh: "What I mean is, if someone isn't telling the truth, we have to go find her. If being soft doesn't work, we have to be tough. We have to make her tell the truth. We can't let her treat us like monkeys or use us as tools."
Qin Houqing snapped the tablet shut and pulled out a stun gun from his spatial storage: "I'm going now. You guys continue monitoring..."
In Spanish, he hurriedly replied, "I'll go with you..."
“No need for all that trouble.” Ling Du interrupted Xi Yu and directly called out to the AI on the ship: “Capture and kill, have the combat robots bring Guan Tang over.”
AI-powered detection: "Yes, Your Excellency Lingdu!"
Qin Houqing, in Spanish: "..."
"You're planning to retaliate!" Jiufeng watched as Agares used their ship system to launch a satellite out of Earth, establishing their own signal wave.
“Yes, there is a third party involved, and they are a threat. Then find them, kill them, and eliminate the danger!” Agares’s hands didn’t stop typing on the virtual keyboard. The hatch on the stealth ship opened, and dozens of stealth unmanned surveillance aircraft took off from the ship and flew to all directions of the earth to detect the third party involved besides them.
Jiufeng then asked, "Since they can clone General Bo Jichen's communications, could they clone others as well?"
Another virtual screen appeared in front of Agares, showing dozens of red dots of unmanned surveillance aircraft flying out: "Yes, they can clone the teacher's communications, so they can clone Ms. Simubei's communications, Wei Chi's communications, and even mine."
"At the same time, if I'm not mistaken, in addition to cloning the communications of people my wife knows, they also clone people, that is, they create 1:1 equivalent robots."
Jiufeng was extremely surprised: "Making a 1:1 life-size robot is illegal!"
Agares shifted his gaze from the small red dot on the projection screen to Jiu Feng: "Your Excellency Jiu Feng, when it comes to crime, you're quite hypocritical."
"On the ship that Mr. Shu Xubai, the richest man in the Fourth Civilization, gave to my wife, there are 1,000 robots that can be made to be 1:1 replicas of me."
"When he made it, why didn't you call him a criminal? But when someone else made it, why did you think of it as a crime? Your double standards are well-known!"
Jiu Feng was speechless and unable to refute.
Yes, the vampire Shu Xubai, whom he hated, created a life-sized robot of Marshal Agareth. At that time, he had amnesia, and he did not think she had committed a crime.
Now that he has regained his memory, when he hears others making things, he reflexively thinks of those people committing crimes, instead of thinking that Shu Xubai had also done these things, and that he had done 1,000 of them.
Seeing that he was speechless, Agares continued, "Your Excellency Jiufeng is the spiritual believer of the Fourth Civilization, and the people you see most often are devout believers."
"You don't need to do anything. Your believers will willingly place the best and most beautiful things in front of you with both hands, just to bless them."
"Therefore, you are unaware of the wickedness of human nature, and you are unaware that for some people who are already about to commit crimes, the laws of the Abel Galaxy are meaningless to them."
“My guess and the details tell me that they cloned the personal computer numbers of people my wife knew and made a 1:1 replica of the people my wife knew.”
"Because my wife's personal computer was destroyed and she faked her death to escape, even if they had my wife's personal computer communication number, they couldn't make a call, so they thought of me."
"As for how they knew I came to Earth, they were certain I was here. First, they confirmed it by calling my communications through the signal waves they emitted. Second, Guan Tang might not be dead; they might have saved him!"
"Cough cough cough!"
As soon as Agares finished speaking, Jiufeng choked on her own saliva and coughed violently.
He coughed so hard it was excruciating, and his face turned completely red.
Agares spun his chair, staring straight at him until he finished coughing, then slowly said, "Your Excellency Jiufeng, you may think my statement is a fantasy, or that I'm just imagining things."
"Actually, no. It was a third party that clearly came from behind us without our knowledge. The spaceship they were piloting was of the same level as ours, or rather, the Federation had built a ship that was more advanced than the Fourth Civilization, with better stealth capabilities and a more advanced shielding system."
"Another possibility is that they are at least two days away from us. Two days is a long time, making it very difficult to detect."
"If it had been two days, and you hadn't killed Guantang and hadn't thrown her into the life pod, she could have been rescued by a third party."
“The third party is after my wife. After rescuing Guantang, they will naturally ask her why she was in the escape pod. Of course, their questions depend on whether you left the energy in the escape pod for only three days.”
His analysis, every detail, every word, left Jiu Feng speechless, unable to object or refute it. She even felt that the third-party forces were proceeding exactly as Marshal Agares had analyzed.
He is the spiritual leader of the Fourth Civilization, the patriarch of the Phoenix Clan, and holds a higher status in the hearts of the people than the Emperor of the Fourth Civilization.
However, in his ability to understand human nature, his military acumen, and his attention to detail, he was far inferior to Agares, not even a little bit.
Jiufeng took a deep breath: "What should we do next?"
Agares's expression was stern. He lowered his eyes and tapped on the virtual keyboard as he said, "We will continue to follow the small spaceship of the companion creature ahead. In addition to dozens of unmanned surveillance aircraft, we will also send dozens of unmanned stealth fighters."
"Set up automatic reconnaissance of federal targets, and once a target is locked, bomb it directly, especially when you see my teacher's 1:1 robot, the 1:1 robot of someone my wife knows."
"I've already entered their photos into the stealth fighters. Once they detect and lock onto them, they'll send a message back and then launch a bombing raid!"
Upon hearing this, Jiufeng suddenly had an idea and asked, "They're trying to find your princess through you, so why don't we connect to their communications and lure them into a trap? What do you think?"
Agares shook his head without looking up or turning his head: "Not good. If I were to lure you into a trap, I wouldn't be able to find my wife."
“If they have more than one ship, and the equipment on board is far superior to ours, we are not leading them into a trap, but rather they are trapping us in one.”
"The most urgent task now is to find my wife, your ship, and her ship. Both ships have the same firepower. By working together to deal with the others, we have a greater chance of winning."
His wife was more than eight months pregnant. Even with their strong mental and physical abilities, they were not afraid of face-to-face hand-to-hand combat, using their mental strength and supernatural powers.
However, when it comes to firepower, even the strongest mental and physical strength cannot withstand indiscriminate attacks.
The other party contacted his wife, indicating that they already knew about her pregnancy. Rather than saying their target was his wife, it would be more accurate to say their target was his child.
There's an old Chinese saying that goes, "Hold the emperor hostage to command the princes." As long as you have the child, both his wife and he will compromise.
Of course, the worst-case scenario is that those people find out his wife's identity and not only kidnap the children but also people to study, researching the genetic code and the secret of immortality.
"I had no idea Marshal Agares had a princess consort." Guan Tang knelt on the ground, her hands covered in blood, and said to Qin Houqing and the others, "I have never seen her. You can ask me a thousand times, and I still won't know. I have only seen Her Highness Jiufeng and Marshal Agares!"
“I didn’t even see their private guards, adjutants, or personal guards, let alone anything else. You have to believe me, really, I’m not lying to you.”
Qin Houqing thrust his stun gun directly into Guan Tang's neck: "Miss Guan, I don't have the patience to listen to your lies. Tell me right now, how big is the princess consort of the Troya Empire's belly? If you tell me, I won't kill you. Otherwise, I'll slowly electrocute you!"
