Chapter 1323:  Internal friction

"At that time, General Mirion was headed by General Frost and I moved east at the same time. After the March War, we regained all the lost ground and drove Duobia's army back to the other end of the land bridge. Next, our empire The war with Duobia returned to the tug-of-war on the land bridge. Now the empire has invested 300,000 troops in the Forge City, and garrisoned 100,000 troops in Hell Castle and Steel City, forming a deep and wide line of defense. Biya wants to go deep into the empire like last time, unless the Black Emperor himself conquered again, it is absolutely impossible."

After Baal said it, Spernak chuckled in the shadows: "Frios is not a stupid man. Last time, he was for Liwei and attacked while I was asleep. Now I am awake, he There is no benefit in doing this. The kid is very smart, and I don't think he will do anything like this thankless thing."

Spinak added: "Baal, our war with Dobia is actually meaningless in my eyes and Frios' eyes. But even so, neither I nor him will end the war. Planning. Do you know why?"

Baal's ability to climb to the position of the Grand Overseer is not purely by force, and he is somewhat clever. Since Spinak made it clear that war is meaningless, he thought about it in this direction, and got a conclusion. But he dared not say this conclusion, pretending to be stupid and shook his head: "Subordinates don't know."

"You know, I just don't dare to say it." Spinak said solemnly: "It's for internal friction."

"The genes of our Bar people can merge with other foreign genes in a nearly perfect way to give birth to new descendants. It is no exaggeration to say that since the birth of the first Bar people in Agares, our evolution has not stopped for a moment. However, this form of life cannot be said to be without drawbacks. I think you also know how short the reproduction cycle of Barr women is. Every year, a large number of babies are born on this planet, and our growth cycle is also short. It’s terrible. It takes eighteen years for human beings to reach adulthood, and we only need seven years!" Spinak’s tone was a little bit more emotional: "In many cases, I even suspect that this race is a weapon of life. . With unlimited evolutionary capabilities, extremely short reproduction and growth periods, it can be said that the Baer people have been preparing for battle since the moment they were born."

"Bloodthirsty and combativeness are the nature of almost every Barr. We are a race full of aggression, and war is our bounden duty. Then, it is accompanied by various problems, the most serious of which is Agareth’s Resources." The voice in the shadow became heavy: "Agareth is not a planet with rich resources. Maybe we have rare things that other planets don’t have, such as abyss crystals. If you can measure the entire planet, Our resources are still too barren. Such a barren planet cannot support the explosive growth of the Baer population."

Speaking of this, there is no need for Spinak to continue.

It is for this reason that the two supreme beings know that war is meaningless, but no one is willing to stop this behavior. If you don't rely on war to consume the excessive lives of the Bal people, sooner or later the emerging population will cause the entire planet to lose its ecological balance. At the same time, the interstellar defense line established by Idahua and many high-level races in the Yorton star field prevented the Baers from transferring the surplus population to other planets. Therefore, this situation is formed.

Baal was thinking about the deeper meaning of Spinak's words, and suddenly the devil in the shadow said: "I'm going to meet Frios."

The Grand Overseer shook his whole body, his eyes glowing with scorching fire and looking at You Ying, at this moment he was no longer polite. The warm gaze seemed to see through the shadow. It's a pity that Spinak didn't continue speaking, but reached out and pointed to a place on the map. There is the northern border of the Demon Empire, across the desert with the "Mound of Death" and the great wasteland.

"His Majesty?"

"I want you to sit in the fortress Morkdan." The demon in the shadow said: "Not long ago, I discovered that the curtain of time in the relic was suddenly removed. This is very unusual. I don't know whether the next relic will be big. What happened to the wasteland, so I need you to guard the empire's door for me."

Baal said solemnly: "Yes, Your Majesty."

"You go now and take the three thousand mad shadow army."

Baal narrowed his eyes, trying to say something, but finally nodded and left the Shadow Hall.

The two scarlet spots in the shadow were still alone against the map on the long platform, and an iron gloved hand stretched out from the shadow, and Spinak remotely pointed at the map. The map immediately moved to the east, and the light on the stone platform changed complexly. When it finally stopped, a three-dimensional model of the city appeared in the sight of Spinak.

That is Sunset City.

"It's time to meet again, Frios. I'm afraid that is what you expected, right?"

Ida Huaxing, Golden City.

A series of long whistling came from high above, disturbing a few birds on the elegant windowsill. Shocking Bird flew away from the window sill, and a snow-white feather mixed with a few gold threads floated down in the air, lying quietly on the window edge.

Lucy glanced at the feather and said to a silver bracelet on the table next to it: "Go, bring it to me, it just happens to be missing a bookmark."

The silver bracelet twisted suddenly. It was obviously metal, but it was twisted and deformed like mercury, turning into a silver spider. It swiped its silver feet quickly, climbed onto the window sill, and brought the white feather with gold to Lucy. Lucy put the feather on the book she was reading, and then closed it. She rubbed her eyebrows and looked very tired. She immediately put her head on the book and looked out the window in a daze.

Outside the window there was another roar of a starship breaking through the air.

"His Royal Highness, I suggest you go home and have a good sleep. I heard that you have been in the library for three days." A slightly reproachful voice sounded.

Lucy looked up and someone came in outside the door of the library. A clean white long dress with a scale pattern embroidered on the chest with gold thread. The man with a code in his hand just strode to Lucy.

"Link?" Lucy jumped up and said in surprise: "Didn't you hear that you went to the surface province?"

"It just happened to be on holiday recently, so I came back to see you. I should have been here long ago. If I knew what Franco had done." Link still looked serious and unsmiling.

The last time Franco wanted to go wrong with Lucy at the white arch bridge outside the library, but he retreated for Golden Rose. When Ofascius learned of this, he was extremely furious, and Franco was arrested that day, and three days later, he was dispatched to the side hammer planet to replenish the army. Even his dad was downgraded to the third rank. The anger of Ophasis made the ruling and the opposition see his determination to defend Lucy, and it also made some people who had the same mindset as Franco had to focus on banqueting Lucy, the emperor's status in the heart of the emperor.

Some people think that what the emperor is actually maintaining is the Golden Rose, but no matter which one, no one dares to provoke Lucy easily after Franco's incident. Orfascius also ordered the Marquis Marus, who was in charge of the security of the palace, to find a suitable personal guard for Lucy. Although Lucy said that he didn't need it, this time Orfascius insisted strongly and Lucy had to give up.

After Link returned to the City of Gold, he heard that Franco had done such a thing, and was almost so angry that he was going to trouble the bastard. Hearing that Franco had already allocated the army, he stopped, but he immediately inquired where Lucy was, so don't rush over.

Lucy shook her head and sat down and said, "I can protect myself."

Link looked at her, pushed the frame and said: "He promised I will protect you, but now"

"I can't blame Ellen." Lucy shrugged. "At the time he didn't know that he was the Son of Twilight."

"So, what are you going to do?"

"What do you mean?"

Link sighed and sat down beside her: "I don't want to be a villain, but I have to persuade you. Alan can't change the fact that he is the son of twilight. Even if he is not fully awakened, it is still a time bomb. . Your Majesty can let him go for you, and promise to open his eyes and close his eyes as long as he doesn’t wake up, but other people can do the same? What they can’t do, including me, even though I’m sitting here at this moment. I still think Allen is a threat."

"A potential threat."

"If you refuse to abandon him, one day, you will still be forced to stand against the emperor."

Lucy shook her head: "How can I abandon him."

"I can't give up him!" Lucy's voice is not loud but her tone is determined: "If even I give up him, then, who else will save him?"

"I know exactly what Alan is like. He doesn't want to be the Son of Twilight at all. This is the shackle imposed on him by fate. No matter what, I will definitely find the key to open this shackle!"

Link looked at her seriously, and smiled gently after a moment: "I knew you would say that. If you were so easy to change, you wouldn't be the Lucy I know. That stubborn girl, just I will do what I believe. Then, if you need help, please let me know, although I may not be able to help much."

"It's enough if you are willing to support me." Lucy also laughed.

"By the way, I heard that the earth is in trouble now?" Link asked again.

Lucy nodded and sighed: "I don't know the details. I heard that the Nirmites came out in full force. I don't know how to bypass the interstellar defense line and open the space channel directly near the moon. The earth sent a request for help. Based on the obligations of the allies, my father had ordered Lord Griffith to bring a fleet to support. You can hear it too, these days are all the sounds of starships lifting off."
