Chapter 78



Just as Lin Anan and the others speculated, even if the people from Galaxy X found a way to break through the rocky area, the rocky area would still be an obstacle between the two galaxies, and they could not send a large number of people over.

The only ones who came to the Milky Way galaxy to carry out the territory expansion mission were the cyborgs on Lanster's starship, and another starship filled with Zerg and Kylo Stone that was destroyed by Lin Anan and his men.

Kylo Stone and Zerg are their most important means of force.

Now the most critical Kylo Stone has been destroyed by Lin Anan, and Lanster and others were destroyed in the rocky area along with the starship. The only thing left is the Zerg army that is attacking the Federation.

However, the Zerg's 'commander', the Queen, has died. The remaining Zerg troops on the battlefield have lost their backbone and are acting entirely on instinct. They are not to be feared and only need to be cleaned up on a large scale.

Si Youlin, with half of the soldiers of the First Legion, is still stationed near the rocky area to ensure that there will be no other accidents in the future and to carry out post-war cleanup work.

A lot of people from the Federation and the pirates were also left behind.

On the way back to the empire, Lin Anan was forced by Feng Wu to have a good rest.

Purifying an entire starship's worth of Kylo Stone consumes a lot of supernatural powers and physical strength. Except for the first few small rooms, Lin Anan basically relied on supernatural power supplements to survive the evolution of the remaining Kylo Stones.

Taking a large amount of supernatural supplements in a short period of time and forcibly and excessively using supernatural powers will put a considerable burden on the body.

Lin Anan sighed as if in distress, but when he saw Feng Wu's tough but worried expression, he couldn't help but curl his eyes.

It seems that he will be forced to enter the 'standby hibernation' state for the next period of time.

Lin Anan lay on the bed and closed his eyes, trying to fall asleep to replenish his exhausted energy. But he had just finished a thrilling battle, and although his body was exhausted, his spirit was still excited.

A moment later, he opened his eyes again and logged onto the Star Network.

The news of Galaxy X's defeat has quickly spread throughout the Milky Way galaxy.

Lin Anan looked through the posts on the Star Network. There was no longer the panic and wailing of the previous few days. Now the Star Network was lively and festive. Even the Federation, which was still clearing out the Zerg, joined in the cheering.

[I am so excited that I don’t know what words to use to describe my feelings.]

[This is too fast! I declare this to be the fastest war to end in the history of the galaxy! ! ! ]

[I thought those bastards in Galaxy X were so powerful, but they were killed right after they left the rocky area [white eyes.jpg]]

「Ah, I really want to see them trying to run away with their tails between their legs but failing to do so.」

[The invaders deserve this fate! ]

[What about the Kailo stone of the Ikko ship? Was it blown up as well? Will we be unable to go near the rocky area in the future? ]

[You can go, don't worry, the Kailuo stones have all been purified by the Third Prince, you don't have to worry about the Kailuo stone radiation there [Happy Windmill.jpg]]

[All the Kailo stones on the One-Star Ship have been purified?! [Pupil earthquake.jpg]]

[Wow, His Highness the Third Prince is so awesome! [Offer my knees.jpg]]

[This victory is really thanks to the Third Prince and Marshal Feng. When the Third Prince posted on his star blog saying "I'm here", I was wondering what the point of him being here is. He's only one person, how much power can one person have? How can he possibly turn the tide? But after just a few days, I got slapped in the face. [My face hurts but I'm so happy.jpg]]

[I declare that from today on I am the Third Prince's dog [wagging tail.gif]]

[I am a little worried about the Third Prince... That is the Kailo Stone of the One-Star Ship. Is the Third Prince in good health? I hope there will be no sequelae.]

[I was so happy just to save my life, I hope the Third Prince is okay [Cat Crying.jpg]]

[@Xia Lin, can the Third Prince come out and report that you are safe? Let us know that you are okay [covering mouth and crying.jpg]]

[The Third Prince should be resting now, right? ]

[That’s right, that’s right. Let’s not disturb the Third Prince for now.]

[WTF, His Majesty the Third Prince really posted a blog! He said he was fine and asked us not to worry [burst into tears.jpg]]

[Wuwuwuwu, I'm so glad you're okay. Anzi, no, the Third Prince will always be the one who is in trouble!!!]

After reporting her safety on Starnet, Lin Anan continued to browse Starblog when she suddenly heard the sound of a door opening.

Familiar footsteps walked into the room, and Feng Wu's slightly helpless voice rang out: "Didn't I tell you to rest? How come you still have time to post on Xingbo?"

——Got caught.

Lin Anan blinked and tilted her head to look at him innocently: "I can't sleep, and watching Xingbo doesn't require any brainpower, so it can be considered a rest."

These words were spoken with such righteousness that Feng Wu fell silent.

After a moment he asked, "Would you like to eat something? We have prepared some food on the battleship. I'll make whatever you want."

Lin Anan's eyes lit up, and her stomach growled twice at the right time: "I want to eat the egg noodles you made. I want two eggs."

"Okay." Feng Wu agreed immediately.

The warship was flying steadily in the void. Unlike the sense of urgency when it came here, this time the return journey seemed relaxed and comfortable, just like a tour group returning home after a trip.

After eating a bowl of hot noodles, Lin Anan was finally completely overwhelmed by fatigue. She wrapped herself in the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up again, the battleship had returned to the empire's territory.

The room was empty. Lin Anan washed her face to wake herself up, then leisurely came to the main control room of the warship.

Feng Wuzheng was standing next to the main driver's seat, the light screen in front of him flashing rapidly, as if he was looking at some information.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, he looked back and immediately walked to Lin Anan: "Aren't you going to sleep anymore?"

"No need to sleep." Lin Anan glanced at the big screen in the main control room, "Are we almost there?"

Feng Wu nodded: "Well, there are still ten minutes to land at the Capital Star Base."

He raised his hand and touched Lin Anan's face.

Lin Anan's face was still very pale, and the red marks on the sides of her face from sleeping were a little too eye-catching.

Lin Anan tilted her head and rubbed Feng Wu's palm, then looked up at him: "What's wrong?"

Feng Wu paused: "...It's okay."

"If you want to kiss me, go ahead." Lin Anan blinked, glanced behind him, and said softly, "Don't worry, Brother Xiong isn't looking this way."

Feng Wu: "I didn't—"

"You don't want to kiss?" Lin Anan frowned, "Okay, then I want to kiss."

He stood on tiptoe and gave Feng Wu a kiss before he could react, then sighed with satisfaction.

"That's great." He muttered quietly, "Without Galaxy X, even kissing becomes more comfortable."

Feng Wu pursed his lips, a smile flashed across his eyes. He lowered his head and was about to continue the brief kiss when a light cough came from behind him.

"Hmm." Xiong Yingjun scratched the back of his head awkwardly. "Although I am a little disturbing to you...but are you really not going to take a look at the new message sent by His Highness?"

Feng Wu's earlobe was instantly stained with a faint red. He took two steps back calmly, returned to his previous position, and his gaze fell on the light screen again.

Lin Anan sighed with some regret and walked slowly to the front of the main control room.

In front of the transparent observation screen, the logo of the First Legion’s base on the Capital Planet can be vaguely seen ahead.

Having entered the range of the capital planet, the warship slowed down its speed, and the scenery flying backwards gradually became clearer.

Lin Anan saw that a group of people had gathered outside the gate of the base at some point.

Ordinary people were not allowed to enter the base at will, so those people gathered in front of the gate. Almost everyone was holding a colorful, lighted gadget in their hands, which sparkled in the dark and was quite eye-catching.

"...What is that?" Lin Anan was a little surprised.

Feng Wu took a look and said, "They should be the ones who are here to welcome us back."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Anan saw that the crowd, which had been relatively quiet, suddenly became agitated.

A moment later, a huge banner made of colorful lights slowly unfolded among the crowd.

——Congratulations to the Third Prince and Marshal Feng on their triumphant return!

All the words were lit with different colors of light, like a colorful lamp in the darkness.

Lin Anan was stunned: "...their actions are too fast, aren't they?"

Feng Wu smiled and said, "It's also possible that they had already made the banners, but they are just using them now."

The victory banner was prepared before they set out, which was a good omen.

The warship landed steadily in the base, and the medical soldiers who had been waiting for a long time rushed forward to conduct a comprehensive examination of every soldier who got off the warship.

Even Lin Anan is no exception.

The therapist in charge of him looked gloomy after the examination results came out: "Overdrawn mental strength and supernatural power, excessive intake of supernatural power supplements, resulting in instability of supernatural power core-"

Feng Wu's expression changed slightly.

Lin Anan waved her hands quickly: "Don't, don't, don't say it's so serious, these can all be recovered!"

The healer glared at him fiercely: "You can recover, but you are not allowed to use your supernatural powers or mental power for a week! You are not allowed to use supernatural powers or mental power in large quantities for a month!"

"I understand. I understand."

Lin Anan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. Seeing that Feng Wu beside him still looked unhappy, he quickly said, "Okay, Brother Wolf, there won't be anything that requires me to use my supernatural powers in the next period of time. I will just rest and recuperate."

Feng Wu's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed slightly.

After the inspection, Lin Anan and Feng Wu set off for the Amio Palace.

Although it was already late at night, the hall of the Amiou Palace was still brightly lit, and everyone was waiting for Feng Wu and Lin Anan's return.

Xia Changluo was standing at the door of the hall wearing a thick coat. When he saw Lin Anan, his eyes lit up. He walked up to him and hugged him, then took two steps back and looked him up and down.

"You're not hurt?"

Lin Anan shook her head and held Xia Changluo's hand. Seeing that his face was pale and his lips were slightly purple, she subconsciously wanted to use her supernatural powers to heal him.

Then he heard Feng Wu beside him cough lightly. Even without turning his head, he could feel the other party's sharp gaze on his back.

Lin Anan laughed dryly in her heart: "Don't worry, big brother, I'm not hurt. Brother Wolf and the others protected me very well."

Xia Changluo then looked at Feng Wu and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Feng Wu shook his head: "It's okay. The therapist said that His Highness An and the Third Prince have overdrawn their supernatural powers and mental strength. They can't use their supernatural powers for a month."

Lin Anan protested: "It's clearly one week that we can't use it! One month means we can't use it in large quantities..."

His voice became smaller and smaller under Feng Wu's gaze, until finally Lin Anan could only sigh and say, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Xia Changluo covered her mouth and smiled.

There were still many people in the hall waiting for their return. Xia Changluo organized a very brief meeting and then let everyone leave.

Modxin, who was originally stationed on the capital planet, was sent by Xia Changluo to support the Federation in exterminating the Zerg.

According to the news from Gu Yubai, the Zerg only have the instinct to attack anymore and are no longer a threat to them. It will only take about three days to end the large-scale encirclement and suppression.

"Go and rest first. We can deal with the rest tomorrow morning." Xia Changluo said.

Lin Anan shook her head and said, "Brother, go and rest first. Brother Wolf and I still need to go to the detention room."

Xia Changluo understood immediately: "Go see Xia Yuanhan?"

"That's right." Lin Anan nodded. "Such great news must be let him know as soon as possible."

Xia Changluo smiled and said, "You."

After a few days, Lin Anan and Feng Wu once again came to the bottom floor of the detention room.

When the door opened, Xia Yuanhan was sitting on the simple little bed in the room, looking up at the ceiling, wondering what he was thinking.

Lin Anan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Oh, you haven't slept yet!"

Hearing his voice, Xia Yuanhan was a little surprised: "Why are you still here? Aren't you going to the front line? Are you giving up on yourself?"

He had been locked up in a detention room, cut off from the outside world, and therefore did not know that Galaxy X had been defeated.

"Of course I've returned from the front line." Lin Anan gave him a very bright smile, "And I brought you some good news."

Xia Yuanhan frowned and said nothing. Then he saw Lin Anan open the terminal and click on the Star Network in front of him, and enlarge the interface of the Star Network hot search on the light screen.

#X Galaxy Defeat#

#The Third Prince purified all the Kailo stones#

#We won#

#Nearly a quarter of the patients on Sin Star have recovered#

After reading a long list of hot search terms, Xia Yuanhan's expression changed again and again.

"X Galaxy... was defeated?" Xia Yuanhan murmured, "This is impossible!"

“What’s wrong with this?

Yes." Lin Anan's smile got bigger. "Whether you believe it or not is up to you. I just came to tell you that the time of your public trial has not changed."

Xia Yuanhan's eyes were wide open, but his pupils were out of focus. It was obvious that he was still immersed in extreme shock.

Lin Anan said softly: "Then, see you at ten o'clock tomorrow morning."

At ten o'clock the next day, Xia Yuanhan's public trial was held as scheduled.

This time the trial was broadcast live to the public, and people from all over the empire and even the entire galaxy could watch the entire process.

Lin Anan and Feng Wu sat in the courtroom. The judge narrated everything Xia Yuanhan had done. Every time he listed a piece of evidence, he would ask Xia Yuanhan whether it was true.

Xia Yuanhan, who was sitting in the position of the defendant, looked distraught, as if he could not hear the judge's questions at all, and his lack of rebuttal was taken as a tacit agreement.

The trial went very smoothly, and the final verdict was not beyond Lin Anan's expectations.

--death penalty.

The moment the gavel of judgment fell, people from all over the empire cheered.

Xia Yuanhan's execution will be held that night. Before the execution, Xia Yuanhan will have a humanitarian meal.

Lin Anan and Xia Changluo brought him a bowl of noodles with scallion oil and a runny fried egg.

Xia Yuanhan in prison glanced over and his pupils suddenly shrank when he saw the bowl of noodles.

"It seems you still remember this bowl of noodles." Lin Anan said, "Mother made it for you many times, didn't she?"

Lin Anan handed the noodles to Xia Yuanhan, but the other party still stared at the bowl blankly without reaching out his hand.

Lin Anan could only put the noodles in front of him. When he stood up, he asked softly, "Second brother, I will ask you one last time."

He raised his head and looked into Xia Yuanhan's eyes: "From the time you embarked on this path until now, have you really never regretted it even a little bit?"

Xia Yuanhan didn't say anything. Only after Lin Anan and Xia Changluo turned and left did he pick up the bowl, picked up the noodles and took a bite.

...It doesn't taste the same as before.

Even if it resembles Aunt Bai, it doesn't taste like her.

A tremendous bitterness suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart and quickly spread throughout his body. At that moment, his internal organs felt as if they were about to be torn apart.

Xia Yuanhan chuckled softly, and as he laughed, he burst into tears.

He regretted it, but his chance to turn back had already been cut off by his own hands.

When Xia Yuanhan's execution was over, the sky had already darkened.

Lin Anan took Feng Wu to the royal mausoleum and came to the familiar tombstone.

Bai Cenrou's grave was cleaned very cleanly, with several bouquets of flowers placed in front of it, and now there was a bouquet of white lilies that Lin Anan brought for her.

"It's all over." Lin Anan sighed, "It feels like a lifetime ago. It doesn't seem real."

Feng Wu was a little puzzled: "Not real?"

"Well, because I didn't expect things to turn out like this." Lin Anan said softly.

Thinking back to when he first woke up from this world, he hadn’t recovered his previous memories and didn’t know his true identity.

The only thing he needed to consider at that time was how to survive in the harsh environment of Sin Star.

Who would have thought that less than a year had passed and he had already accomplished the feat of 'saving the world'.

Feng Wu gently hugged his shoulders and said in a soft voice: "I didn't expect that either."

He never thought that the day would come when he would return to the empire, nor did he expect that when that day came, there would be someone by his side with whom he wanted to walk side by side for the rest of his life.

He lowered his head slightly and stared at the person next to him, the fair face of the person next to him reflected in his dark golden pupils.

Lin Anan tilted her head to look at him: "What are you thinking about?"

"Thinking..." Feng Wu came back to his senses, "Thinking about the future."

A smile flashed across Lin Anan's eyes: "What kind of future?"

Feng Wu also smiled, lowered his head and kissed him: "There is a future for you."

——Being able to accompany each other, such a future is already beautiful enough, and it makes people look forward to and yearn for it.
