The End of the Earth
Chapter 178 Unidentified Object
“Dragon Curse, in fact, I have been looking for clues about the Dragon Curse over the years.
But nothing was found, as if Amman was the only one who had appeared on the earth."
There was a hint of dejection in Kalista's helpless tone.
Xiang San comforted her: "Okay, don't think too much, you should take a break. I heard that you never let yourself relax and are always busy with work.
The royal court is so large, and your people are not incompetent, so just let them do some things."
"You want to know why I do everything myself?
That's because Gulawang and his duke party controlled almost all of the kingdom's army, and even most of the people in the royal court were his people.
When I took over the throne of Queen, Gulawang took advantage of this opportunity to win over a large number of important people from various ethnic groups.
I need you to intervene in the royal court and the army to help me fight against Gulawang."
Kalista's words were a little excited, and she spoke to Xiang San in a commanding tone.
She seemed to realize that her words were inappropriate and calmed down.
"I'm sorry, I-I was a little excited just now."
“Kalista, I’ve actually always wanted to ask you why you’re so obsessed with controlling the army and the power of the royal court.
Just for the Queen's authority?
We can actually take it slow, there’s no need to be so impatient.”
Calista nodded and shook her head, and no one knew what she meant.
A few tears flowed from the corners of her eyes and she lowered her head.
Xiang San squatted in front of her, holding her face gently with his hands: "Hey, you can talk to me, you don't have to hide everything in your heart.
What happened?
"I just, I just don't have time... I want Answei to have your support and succeed me as the new Elf Queen after I die."
Xiang San was a little confused. His own daughter became the Queen of Elves?
"Calista? What nonsense are you talking about?
What do you mean there is no time? And An An is not an elf, how can she become the queen of the elf kingdom? "
Calista leaned her forehead on Xiang San's shoulder and said weakly, "I was injured a few years ago. It was an organized assassination. During that incident, I was injured and an unknown genetic virus entered my body.
I have tried many methods, and after taking the throne of Queen, I have been seeking and trying many cures, but none of them can completely solve the problem.
I don't have much time left. I want to pave the way for you and Ansevi before I die. I don't care about the elves' mission. I just want to take good care of you and your daughter for Amman.
In fact, I performed a special genetic engineering on An An when she was a child. She also has some elf genes in her body, but she cannot awaken them yet.
An An's genome is different from that of other organisms and is more inclusive, like a universal container that can accommodate genes from other different species.
Perhaps when she grows up, she will be able to fully utilize the elven genes I implanted in her."
Xiang San was so surprised that he didn't say anything for a while.
He hadn't expected things to turn out like this. The news that Kalista didn't have much time left was a bolt from the blue for him.
"You should have told me earlier. Promise me you won't hide anything from me in the future, okay?"
Xiang San gently stroked her back and spoke softly.
"Well, if there is a future, I'll listen to you.
My life now is really tiring.
I want to rest, too.”
After a while, Calista fell asleep on Xiang San's shoulder. She slept very soundly and Xiang San couldn't wake her up even after calling her name a few times.
Xiang San slowly moved Calista's body. He tried to put Calista on the sofa, but her hands were clasped on Xiang San's back, so he had no choice but to sit on the sofa and hold the sleeping Calista in his arms.
Fortunately, he didn't have anything serious to do and was not in a hurry to leave.
After sitting like this for more than two hours, Calista gradually woke up after having a good sleep.
"I haven't slept so peacefully in a long time. Thank you for being my pillow for... two hours."
Kalista tapped the terminal screen on her wrist and checked the time and teased.
"At your service, Your Majesty."
Xiang San stood up and saluted in a pretentious manner, which made Calista smile.
"By the way, I have something for you. I originally wanted to give you a newly built mechanical army. It is a legion of 3,000 mechanical soldiers, all composed of super-spiritual steel exoskeletons. Their combat effectiveness is no less than any other legion in the kingdom.
This is the special key to activate the Mechanical Legion. Actually, I want to let you take over the Mechanical Legion directly, but my staff believe that giving you direct command will cause fierce opposition from others.
In the end, we found a compromise, which is to give you the key device to activate this legion. This way, even if Gulawang's people gain command authority in the future, they will not be able to command this legion without your key."
Xiang San looked at the thumb-sized key device in his hand, which looked like a spiral shell, and carefully put it away.
"Then I'll take it. Does the Grand Duke know about this?"
"It's difficult to hide what's happening in the royal court from Gulawang. You must be careful of this man in the future. Don't think he's just an elderly elf. In the Azure World, this man and his family were well-known, and they were best at manipulating people's hearts.
I know you think he's pretty good, don't let that fool you."
Kalista recounted some of Gulawang's early events in great detail, and it had to be said that he had indeed underestimated the old elf's cunning.
A shrill alarm suddenly sounded, interrupting their conversation.
There was a knock on the door of Kalista's office. Xiang San opened the door and several elven generals walked in.
"Your Majesty, the air defense radar has detected a large unidentified object approaching at high speed, with an extremely high target energy index.
The Grand Duke has ordered fighter planes to take off and intercept."
Xiang San now understood how frustrated Calista was as the queen. It was actually the Grand Duke who handled such a major matter before it came to her.
"Understood, let's go down."
After these elven generals left, Kalista looked at Xiang San and smiled.
"How about this? Do you want to see the ultimate weapon of the Elf Kingdom?"
Xiang San's eyes lit up and he nodded.
No man would refuse the words "ultimate weapon".
They came to a huge statue. Xiang San looked at the ordinary jade giant statue in front of him and looked at Kalista in confusion.
"Are you saying this giant statue is a weapon?"
Kalista asked in return, "Xiang, haven't you heard the story of the guardian deity of the glorious divine tool?"
"I've heard that the giant statue of the god is the patron saint of the elven kingdom.
But isn't that just a story and a fable?"
Kalista stretched out her hand, and a beam of light shot out from the chest of the giant statue, slowly pulling Kalista's body into the air.
"That's not a story. The Shining Divine Gear is a weapon. It's the guardian of the Elven Kingdom, literally!"
Xiang San then realized that this guardian angel was a guardian in the physical sense?
