Su Yan raised his hand and gently touched Jiang Zheyu's head, then lowered his eyes and said, "Yuyu, the universe is not as safe as we imagine. The Zerg have always been as difficult to eradicate as weeds. The universe is divided into three front lines: the negative two front lines, the negative one front lines, and the first front line."
"Which district of the front line did you go to before?" Jiang Zheyu paused and looked up at Su Yan.
The novel unfolds from the female protagonist's perspective, and the ending is quite poor, failing to delve into the Zerg aspect, only providing a general overview of the front lines. Jiang Zheyu is also unaware of the current state of the universe.
“I was on the front line in Zone 1. I could have gone to Zone 1 (the negative zone), but I didn’t want to go anymore. The orcs in Zones 1 and 2 (the negative zone) are there forever and can never come back. They have dedicated their entire lives to that place.” Su Yan blinked gently. “I have a wish. I can’t be there forever. The orcs who are stationed in Zones 1 and 2 (the negative zone) will never be matched with a female master and will never have their own offspring.”
Therefore, all those predecessors are in Zones -2 and -1. They may have already died fighting the Zerg, or they may have already transformed into beasts and disappeared.
"What if their beastification value is too high?" Jiang Zheyu paused for a moment. "Doesn't the army discharge beastmen with excessively high beastification values?"
“Only young orcs on the front lines of District One are qualified for this,” Su Yan chuckled helplessly. “After all, the Empire needs to cultivate more fresh blood.”
Of course, orcs with high beastification values who have no ties can also go to the negative one and negative two areas and become a kind of fighting machine. After all, orcs are more destructive after beastification. When fighting the insectoids, they also gave their last strength, which can be considered as using up all their value.
Back then, Su Yan had no ties whatsoever and was determined to return to the front lines despite having a beast transformation value of 89.
However, the Empire felt that he was too young to have made so many outstanding military achievements, so they couldn't bear to send him to the front line again. Instead, they forced him to be paired with a female to reduce his beastification value.
"What's the difference between the front lines in these different districts?" Jiang Zheyu frowned slightly. "Does it mean the level of danger is different?"
Su Yan pulled her over and sat her in his lap, as if embracing her gave him more strength.
"That's right. Zone -2 is like an army that fights the Zerg every day, Zone -1 is a research institute and a reserve of star generals, and Zone 1 is all the troops that are currently in the capital, annihilating space pirates, resisting some Zerg nests, and protecting the capital." Su Yan frowned. "The reason why the entire universe is so safe is because of the constant deaths of orcs in Zones -2 and -1."
“So the strongest fighters have all gone to the first few districts.” Su Yan’s red eyes were cold. “The great space pirate who captured you is nothing compared to the entire universe being invaded and conquered by the Zerg. So the Empire is not without stronger forces than him.”
Jiang Zheyu felt his spirit had been elevated.
She only saw one side of the story, but the Empire was considering the inhabitants of the entire universe.
How to choose between the lives of the minority and the lives of the majority?
How do you choose between a small planet and the entire universe?
The empire already has a choice.
Therefore, the strongest and most experienced combat forces are in the most dangerous places, while the fresh and energetic powerful combat forces are in the rear. Then, a new batch replaces the old batch, constantly changing generations and dying one after another.
“So, Yu Yu, the Empire isn’t as incompetent as you think.” Su Yan looked at her quietly.
Jiang Zheyu felt a little ashamed. She had always thought the empire was quite incompetent, failing to cultivate a single powerful force and constantly having its females captured. She had been narrow-minded.
It's likely that the Empire also knows that the space pirates always kidnap the Empire's little princess just to purify her beastification value.
After all, the fact that she was a woman with multiple males probably meant that the empire would just see the princess sleeping with a few more orcs.
A female with high purification power and rarity will definitely be treated well and her life will be safe.
Moreover, the Empire has not given up on hunting down space pirates, nor has it stopped strengthening the protection of the Empire's little princess.
From a broader perspective, it is indeed quite helpless, but from a smaller perspective, the little princess of the empire is also quite pitiful.
Jiang Zheyu sighed. He couldn't have both. Fortunately, the female lead had now developed a reagent to purify the beast transformation value, which greatly reduced the pressure on the females.
Once the female protagonist develops a reagent to heal mental energy, both females and beastmen on the front lines will be able to greatly reduce their stress.
"Okay, I understand." Jiang Zheyu nodded.
“So that old space pirate doesn’t deserve your affection,” Su Yan said quietly. “He’s not that great, and you don’t need to admire him.”
Jiang Zheyu quickly said, "I, I definitely don't like him, and he's a space pirate, we can never be together."
She didn't really know either. Could it be that by pretending to like him for so long, she had actually fallen for him? But Si Yu was indeed quite handsome. Could it be that feelings had developed over time? Ugh, pshaw.
Su Yan just stared at her, unsure whether she believed him or not.
“You know that the Empire’s little princess has been captured many times, right?” Su Yan looked worried that she might fall for space pirates and kept trying to explain to her, “Many times it wasn’t a defensive mistake, but that she wanted to escape on her own initiative.”
Jiang Zheyu's eyes widened slightly. The little princess of the empire had such a secret?
Su Yan frowned slightly: "She has fallen in love with that space pirate, and she can't live without him."
"Don't worry, don't worry, I won't do that." Jiang Zheyu quickly hugged Su Yan.
She's tried to run away so many times, she definitely wouldn't want to live that kind of life with Si Yu.
Therefore, Jiang Zheyu is still quite rational. She can tell the difference between being a happy rich woman in the capital with many beast husbands and living a life of danger with Si Yu on a spaceship.
Just like when the butterfly beastman rescued her, she felt sorry for Si Yu because he was injured and bleeding all over, but she still left with the butterfly beastman without any resistance.
"Ahem, how's that female researcher who created the purification beast transformation value doing?" Jiang Zheyu asked curiously.
"I haven't been following him." Su Yan paused for a moment, then casually asked, "Why would Yu Yu suddenly be following that orc?"
"It's not that I've suddenly become interested. After all, purifying beast transformation value is a big deal, and anyone who can develop a reagent to purify beast transformation value is naturally very capable and worthy of attention," Jiang Zheyu said righteously.
She was just somewhat concerned about the progress of the female lead's research.
Or has the female lead been captured by space pirates from various factions recently?
Thinking about it this way, the female lead's harem actually has several villains as well.
However, later on, all the villains reformed and were taken into the heroine's harem.
In the novel, the reason why the female protagonist was captured many times seems to be because those space pirates kidnapped people she cared about, which is why she compromised and went with them.
Upon this realization, it seems that the empire's protective capabilities are not weak, but they are not particularly strong either.
