Quiet, absolutely quiet.
Everyone in the conference room thought they had misheard.
What did that guy just say? Marriage? Did he really mean it literally?
"What on earth is this monster trying to do?" This was the voice of many people. After being shocked, the bigwigs of the empire began to discuss it fiercely. This must be some conspiracy, or a delaying tactic to make them lose their vigilance and let the wolf in. Then a large number of such strange creatures would come and destroy the empire.
We have to be alert.
Before you know the other party's background, you can't easily agree to such a weird request!
Even if the other party didn't have any tricks up their sleeve, how could such a freak marry someone? Even though he'd taken on a human form, he wasn't actually human. Isn't that ridiculous? What if he had a habit of eating his partner's tonic at certain times?
Are they even eyeing our excellent and potentially powerful genes, hoping to use them to produce countless offspring?
Either way is unacceptable to humans!
The bosses were talking a lot, but one of them, Ye Ruisheng, calmed down. If you looked closely, you could see that the corners of his mouth were almost raised, which he couldn't hide. He looked helpless, angry and amused. Fortunately, no one in the room noticed him.
He finally understood what Jin Chu's sly grin and confident look meant. So he wanted to do this to finalize their relationship?
It seems... not bad.
Well, they already have a son, and it is really inappropriate for the two of them as fathers to hide it. However, he originally wanted to do this after everything was settled, but he didn't expect that Jin Chu would get there first.
They were discussing this lively matter, while Jin Chu saw the young diplomat was dumbfounded. He said lightly, "What do you think? Do you agree with my proposal?"
"This, this..." The diplomat came to his senses and couldn't finish his words. This was too shocking.
"Indeed, you look like someone who's just been sent out to run errands. Then go ask your boss and get an answer as soon as possible. I'll just get familiar with the area first."
As he spoke, he disappeared from the spot, but a green "tentacle" stretched out from the virtual warship, easily pierced the nearest imperial warship, and extended the tentacle into the warship. Then, the next moment, his human form appeared on the top of the tentacle, and he smiled at the stunned imperial soldiers, jumped to the ground, and strolled around leisurely.
"Oh, this is what your battleship looks like inside." He seemed to have broadened his horizons. On the other side, the interior of his simulated battleship also changed little by little from the gloomy primitive cave-like appearance to the appearance of the battleship inside. All the items and furnishings were exactly the same, even the lighting was not different at all, it was as if it was a complete copy.
This process was faithfully recorded by the camera of the suicide squad aircraft and presented faithfully to the bosses.
Big guys: ...
"The marriage is done, the alliance is sealed! Never mind the difficulty of marrying due to different species. Even if this monster wants to marry hundreds or thousands of humans in one go, we have to agree and appease him first."
They had no doubt that this was a show of force from the monster. If they did not agree to his demands, he would turn all the warships into a hornet's nest on the spot!
——One tentacle can pierce a battleship, but that monster has so many tentacles!
What the hell are these tentacles!
The diplomats who received the confirmation quickly conveyed the decision of the bosses.
Jin Chu came back to him and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I don't have high requirements. I just want him to be the strongest in your empire." Jin Chu waved his hand and stated his criteria for choosing a spouse.
Isn't this a high requirement? I don't know how many people will be eliminated by this standard.
"She has to be particularly good-looking."
After another batch was cleared, all those S-level ones that didn't look that good all breathed a sigh of relief.
"I want someone young. You humans have a short lifespan, and the older you get, the harder it is to transform. I don't want my partner to die as soon as I get married."
According to this standard, those who are 100 years old or under 50 years old can rest assured.
"Unmarried and childless." This request is also reasonable. If you want to get married, of course you want to find someone who is not married.
But do people who are strong, good-looking, young, and single still exist?
The diplomats couldn't help but screen their names in their minds, and the bosses in the conference room also screened their candidates, and then everyone's eyes were all focused on one place.
Ye Ruisheng, who suddenly became the focus: ...as calm as a mountain, as deep as the sea.
The bosses almost wanted to say, Lieutenant General Ye, sacrifice yourself for the empire!
If they could appease this giant monster by paying the price of a lieutenant general, in exchange for the stability and peace of the empire, and perhaps even win a powerful ally for the empire, it would be a sure-win deal. They couldn't wait to pack up and throw the people over.
Those who were at odds with Ye Ruisheng didn't know whether to be happy or sad. The good news was that although the monster had transformed into a human form, no one knew what it was. If he was cruel by nature, or took away anyone he liked, then Ye Ruisheng would be useless. But what if he could become Ye Ruisheng's helper?
They didn't know whether they should fight for this marriage or not.
Lieutenant General Ye didn't care what others thought. He really wanted to make a contribution, but before he could say anything, Jin Chu's words came through the live broadcast after a half-minute delay.
"Hahaha, I'm just kidding. If I meet the right one, I'd really like to find a human partner, but that's just my personal matter. This isn't the kind of collaboration I'm really looking for."
Jinchu really wanted to finalize her relationship with Ye Ruisheng right then and there, have a super-luxurious wedding in front of the entire empire, and from then on, they would be a legitimate couple. But in the end, she thought that if she really did that, Ye Ruisheng would be embarrassed. He, a grown man, would be treated as a sacrifice of the empire, a tool for marriage. If he rose to a higher position in the future, people would think he was taking advantage of her, right?
He couldn't bear to do that.
The bosses suddenly didn’t know what to say. Is it necessary to play tricks on people like this?
The diplomat's face also became a little gloomy: "So what exactly do you mean by cooperation?"
Jinchu sighed and said wistfully, "It's like this. You know, I come from a very powerful country, and my people are all very, very strong."
Yes, I've noticed this a long time ago, no need to brag about it, the diplomat complained in his heart.
Jinchu continued, "But I don't know when everyone stopped evolving. Stagnation in strength is very fatal, because this universe is full of dangers. If we continue like this, one day we will be eliminated."
The diplomat looked at this monster in human form, and thinking of how he had easily pierced a warship before, he couldn't empathize with such concerns. If that were the case, humans should have been eliminated long ago.
"So I began wandering, observing how other races evolved. Then I discovered you humans. You know, although my people are powerful, their lives are quite monotonous, while yours are rich and colorful. Moreover, you are incredibly creative. Although individuals are incredibly weak, the warships and spaceships you build are quite reliable. Then I discovered that you, the humans of the Empire, are still evolving on your own."
It was quite reliable... but you just punctured it. The diplomat continued to complain.
Jinchu said excitedly, "So I want to observe your evolutionary process and learn from it. In exchange, I will help promote your evolution."
The diplomats fell silent, and so did the bigwigs.
This is even more... unbelievable than the previous marriage.
Is there such a good thing?
Their own race was still struggling with evolution, yet they came to help humans evolve? Just to learn from them?
But if it's true...it's like pie in the sky!
Jinchu didn't give people time to think and continued, "When did your evolution begin, and with whom did it begin?"
This question came up with the professional aspect. The bosses found that Ye Ruisheng had to answer this question, and they all looked at him. After all this time, the other party still came to him. Is this fate?
The Emperor immediately ordered, "Lieutenant General Ye, you will contact that..." that thing, "find out what he wants to do. If it is truly beneficial to us, you must treat him well."
Ye Ruisheng stood up from his seat and looked around at everyone: "Since this is about evolution, many people have been concerned about it before, why don't we discuss it together..."
Everyone whose eyes caught his gaze quickly looked away, expressing with their eyes: No, no, no, we don’t understand this, we need an expert to help.
Ye Ruisheng curled his lips slightly. "Then I'll take him to Belfield? Or maybe we should bring him to the capital planet, which is the heart of the empire. Since he's here to help us, we should treat him with the highest regard. Belfield is a remote planet with limited finances, so I'm afraid we won't be able to accommodate him..."
No, no, no, Belfield is not remote at all, it is the brightest and most important planet in our empire.
The emperor didn't even need to ask for other people's opinions. He immediately raised the administrative level of the planet Belfield and allocated a large sum of money. As long as they didn't come to the capital planet or stayed away from the capital planet, everything would be fine.
Ye Ruisheng sneered, "Since everyone is avoiding this matter, please don't interfere in the future. I will do my best to make the genetic evolution agent. If anyone interferes again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Those who wanted to see him suffer were furious, their faces flushed. But in this situation, no one dared to take the initiative. He had to face the monster. Even though it acted like a good person, who knew its true nature? They had already pointed out Ye Ruisheng, so they let him test it out first, to stabilize it so they could formulate a countermeasure.
Ye Ruisheng was still unwilling to let it go easily, and insisted on getting an explanation from the six major armies for joining forces to trap him before he was willing to take on the important task.
The bosses were helpless. Since the Six Armies wouldn't be deployed to the battlefield for the time being, they could just deal with it. That's how it was supposed to be done, wasn't it? The bosses who weren't part of the Six Armies looked at each other, understanding each other.
