Chapter 572: Nothing More Than One Word "Kill"
Chapter 572: Nothing More Than One Word "Kill"
"During the time I disappeared, I went to the Void World."
Inside the ship, next to the porthole.
Clouds passed by the window, a sky full of stars came into view, and the covered bridge was quiet.
Only Lu Yun's voice was heard.
Ophelia sat in the back, her elbows resting on the table, her palm supporting her fair chin, listening quietly to the voice of the young man in front.
As the hair is freed from gravity, it begins to float.
But the transport ship's gravity system was immediately activated and everything returned to normal.
But the heart that was floating in the air could not sink.
"...I happened to hear about his appearance and came to see him."
Lu Yun turned around, leaned against the table, and smiled at the woman leaning on the table: "It seems that you have adapted to the 'Extreme Yang God'."
"This is all thanks to the combat method you gave me, otherwise our compatibility wouldn't have improved so quickly."
"After all, it is the legacy of the ancestral court. As a half-inheritor, I naturally hope that these mechas can continue to fight in the hands of familiar people."
"What about 'Phantom Prison' and 'Moon Lie'? They should also have corresponding combat methods."
"Are you starting to think about your colleagues now?"
"Why, can't you?"
"hehe."
Lu Yun shook his head and laughed, "I do have combat methods. As a token of my cooperation, I will give them to the two Dragon Generals to enhance the strength of the empire."
Ophelia was slightly stunned and explained anxiously: "I was just joking, it's not serious..."
"I see."
Lu Yun reached out to stop Ophelia from saying anything else. He continued, "I'm here this time because I need to discuss a very important cooperation with the Empire. It's only right that I show my sincerity."
"Besides, the Void is now eyeing the border covetously. It is not a good idea to be too precious at this time."
Ophelia looked at the bright eyes of the man in front of her and vaguely felt the huge ambition in his heart.
She hooked her hair, and the tips of her ears turned slightly red: "No matter what you want to do, the Norma family will do its best to support you."
"...This is a token of my gratitude for the gift of the technique. It's the family's intention, not mine... Don't misunderstand me."
Lu Yun looked at Ophelia suspiciously, and she turned her head away guiltily. He asked in a low voice, "...Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Have you experienced mental overload from piloting the Extreme Sun God? I see you're constantly scratching your head. Are you feeling unwell?"
Ophelia opened her mouth, her expression frozen.
In the information space, Xiao Ai covered her face with her hands and couldn't bear to look at it.
……
"Pfft...hahaha..."
Sophia Norma, the former Lord of the Red Flame of Sel and now the eldest daughter of the Norma family, slumped on the sofa, holding her stomach, and laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten her back.
"Smile, laugh, what's so funny!"
Ophelia angrily picked up an ice spirit berry and threw it at her sister's head.
The fruit was pinched by slender hands and put into the mouth.
Sophia rubbed the stiff muscles on her face and said, "As expected of Lu Yun, he's still the same."
"Where is he now?"
"He should be discussing some kind of cooperation with His Majesty." Ophelia pinched the ice spirit berries unhappily.
Sophia Norma sat down beside her and looked at her sister's unhappy face, then burst out laughing.
"This Lu Yun truly possesses immense magical power. He's only just returned, yet he's already making you so worried and obsessed."
"Nonsense, I didn't." Ophelia sneered and crushed the fruit in her hand.
"Really?"
Sophia's eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. Her voice was faint: "Do you remember how long it has been since you were this emotional since he left?"
"Your life seems to be completely taken over by 'Extreme Sun God'. You rarely even come back to this house."
"Every communication is either physical training or simulation training, and each communication ends in less than thirty seconds. Didn't you notice all this?"
Ophelia wiped the juice from her hands and remained silent.
Sophia sighed softly and said softly, "I'm not saying this to lecture you, but to tell you that if you encounter something, you must be brave enough to grab it."
"Tolerance and hiding are not the Norma family's style."
"Besides, the entire empire is watching him now, you're not the only one."
Ophelia paused. "Who else?"
"Haha, that's a lot."
……
"Your Majesty, it is foreseeable that a massive invasion of the Void World will be inevitable in the near future.
If we can do what Mr. Lu Yun said before and give him a fatal blow, then it will be much easier to cope with the situation later."
Jin Palace, Secretary's Office.
The Lord of the Empire, Bertwood VI, Qi Tian, General Lelia Dragon, and two confidential ministers were sitting around.
Lu Yun drank his tea quietly, waiting for the monarch's reply.
Before coming, he thought it would be a smooth cooperation.
But Bertwood VI was hesitant to his surprise.
"Your Majesty, are you worried about anything?" Lu Yun put down the tea set and asked.
Bertwood VI sighed: "Mr. Lu, I naturally know how beneficial your proposal is.
But in this position, I have to prioritize the Empire."
Lu Yun nodded slightly: "I'd like to hear the details."
Burtwood VI straightened his expression. "Firstly, the Empire had previously suffered a double blow from the insect plague and the Secret Order, causing incalculable losses. The people of the capital were in turmoil. Staging such a show at this time would undoubtedly be a huge blow to public confidence."
"After all, they don't know we're cooperating in the show. They only see us preparing to build a new administrative district, only to have it occupied and plundered by the enemy."
The atmosphere in the room was slightly solemn.
Lu Yun looked thoughtful.
Bertwood VI continued, "Secondly, how can you guarantee that there are no traitors within my universe who have surrendered to the enemy?"
"If this is exposed, the main force of the Void World will contact your legion and form an internal and external alliance. This will not only deal a huge blow to you, but also pose a threat to the Federation and the Empire!"
"Establishing a new administrative sector isn't a difficult task, but it's not something that can be accomplished easily. The process will inevitably cause a lot of noise, and concealing it is nearly impossible!"
"Thirdly, the threat from the Secret Order has not yet been eliminated. They have made no secret of their intention to destroy the Empire. I don't know where they are hiding, waiting to strike us hard! I simply cannot rest easy unless I eliminate them."
After the three reasons were put forward, the whole room fell silent.
It also greatly changed Lu Yun's impression of this benevolent emperor.
Everyone stared at Lu Yun, wanting to see how he would respond.
At the same time, they were also thinking about the solutions to these three problems.
Lu Yun drank a cup of tea, put it down gently, and said thoughtfully: "Your Majesty, the first question is inevitable. If we can inflict a huge blow to the enemy at the cost of a short period of instability in the people's hearts, I think this is a good deal."
"The last two questions are actually simpler."
Lu Yun smiled faintly:
"It's nothing more than the word 'kill'."
