Half of the throne is for you [future]

"...Your Majesty." Hong Lie is still not used to saying these two words, but still bows her head respectfully in front of Ao Yin, "The former prince Feng Ji disappeared in the palace, and it was preliminarily judged to be an active replacement, but no crystal nucleus was found. , does not rule out the possibility of extinction."

"Don't worry, she's dead." Ao Yin, who was wandering around the palace, finally found her way and walked straight to the main hall.

The mood at this moment should be happy, but Ao Yin can't be happy no matter what.

Besides Fengji, I always felt that she had to meet another person... When she changed her generation, she desperately told herself to remember that person. After the new life, the memory could not be kept as she wanted, and she only remembered to take revenge.

"But Your Majesty, after you take over, you will naturally take on all the work of the former prince, including the research on the reproduction of the race. If this... delays, can the Council of Elders really handle it?" Hong Lie followed all the way to the main hall, Slightly looked up at the new prince in front of him.

Ao Yin stood in front of the central throne with her arms folded for a moment, sizing up the exquisite patterns carved on it inch by inch, and suddenly turned around with a smile and sat on it: "What did you say?"

"Oh—that's right, it is to take over the daily affairs of the Deep Valley Palace as soon as possible. But I just took over today, and the elders will let me do things so soon. Order the think tank to count the number of people in the palace. If the subordinates of her clan are not willing Be loyal to me and replace it directly."

"Let's look inside the palace for evidence that Feng Ji had cooperated with the Wupa tribe. If there is no such evidence, we must create such evidence. It is impossible for the scientific and technological power of the Cocoon tribe to increase so much in a short period of time. There must be the support of Neville Star behind it— —Cocoon and Wupa cooperated, in order to seize power from us, the former regime forces of Neville Star ruthlessly sacrificed their fellow tribes with viruses, I need to get this kind of 'truth', understand?"

"The subordinates understand. In this way, those vacillating civilians will quickly become suspicious of the original ruler, and thus stand in the same camp as our clan. As for the conflict between our clan and the civilians, it can be pushed on the dead former prince. .” Hong Lie bowed and saluted, took three steps back and turned around.

He is really a smart kid, but unfortunately his personality is too rigid.

Ao Yin leaned on the throne, her eyes were empty and she suddenly said: "Wait a minute. Feng Ji should have many scientific researchers here, why didn't she see any of them? Call them all over."

Hong Lie's leaving footsteps stopped: "Obey."

The former prince Fengji has been unable to grow in size since the replacement, and sitting on the luxurious throne that only has three in the whole planet always looks very pocket-sized.

And Ao Yin sat on the two-meter-high seat just right, holding her forehead, her eyes wandering aimlessly to one side.

The biggest enemy died, and the hatred that was always surging in my heart gradually subsided, and other thoughts slowly rose up, floating above my head like smoke, unable to catch.

"Your Majesty, all scientific researchers are concentrated in the depths of the palace, saying that they are temporarily unable to greet you while strictly carrying out the tasks left by the former prince."

Ao Yin suddenly came back to her senses, and raised her eyebrows when she saw Hong Lie who had gone and returned: "Mission?"

"Yes. The other party's attitude is very firm, saying that the former prince had issued an order, and they said they vowed to complete it, so they couldn't rush to say hello immediately."

It seems that Feng Ji's level of management of the personal guards is average, but the training of scientific research personnel is extremely in place...

"Forget it, take me to have a look." Ao Yin lost the desire to enjoy her leisure time, stood up and walked to the deep underground laboratory, "... What research are they doing?"

Thinking of that human being, Hong Lie added in a low voice, "I heard that it's about the reproduction of the Night Clan."

"Of course I know this. Isn't that why Fengji arrested me and Xue Yousha back then. I heard that she found an effective method before she died? It seems that I can sit back and enjoy the benefits..."

Hong Lie didn't talk much, and her footsteps were silent when she followed behind, like a quiet shadow.

Her highness is no longer a duke, and she doesn't remember anything.

Feng Ji's laboratory is bright and clean, and still carries the breath left by the former owner.Some authentication devices are placed very low for the convenience of the owner.

Across the fully transparent partition wall, a group of scholars in white coats surrounded the girl on the operating table, and faint boos and greetings could still be heard.

In this place, there used to be only the screams and curses of different alien creatures, even if she was imprisoned at the other end, she could vaguely hear it.

"Is the pain strong? We have a plant anesthetic here that does not affect the nerves at all, and it definitely meets the safety standards set by His Majesty."

"……No pain."

"Are you hungry? There are also nutrient solutions customized according to the tastes and nutritional needs of people on Earth, because His Majesty said that during the period when new life is born, you need to pay special attention to your diet, so you can't directly eat animals and plants."

"...I'm not hungry either."

The human beings surrounded by groups are very helpless.

Not long after Fengji left just now, her illusion of being "pregnant with a vegetable" was finally broken, and her stomach was slightly swollen... Then this state was quickly detected by the health bracelet, and a group of scholars who were waiting in battle They carried them on stretchers into the laboratory that had been prepared long ago.

It seems that the gestation period for the children of the Yezu and humans is very short, about a little over a month, and Li Zhuonan's stomach is only slightly bulging.

——Also, I didn’t feel anything when I was born.

Feelings of fatigue and fatigue are very normal, but much smaller than other documented maternal reactions.

The new life is about half the size of an ordinary human baby, very thin, with short black hair stuck to its forehead, and it looks very quiet when its eyes are closed.

Although I can't tell who she looks more like now, but I always feel that I have not inherited some part of Ao Yin...

Li Zhuonan lay on the comfortable operating table, thinking weakly.

The baby left the body with almost no struggle, and is now sleeping peacefully... It is not against the law to just bury it in the soil and water it.

"It has been detected as a female creature. We will be responsible for the follow-up genetic sequence identification and feeding. Please rest here for a while. Someone will take you back to the room later. The recipe for the next meal has been set. Do you want to go over it?"

Someone took the baby away from Li Zhuonan, and the human immediately raised his hand, subconsciously making a blocking motion.

Even if maternal love is very weak, she doesn't want to read any nutritional recipes with her half-closed eyes, but wants to keep this little life by her side.

don't let her leave me...

"—Wait a minute, give it to me."

The sound of extremely light footsteps came from far to near, and someone stopped it.

Li Zhuonan's forehead was covered with black hair soaked in sweat, he was a little confused thinking, this familiar feeling... Who is it?

——When you were helpless, who appeared in time?

The leading scientific researcher saw Ao Yin approaching instead of Feng Ji, and his smile became more helpless because of understanding, and finally firmed his tone: "In order to avoid unnecessary infection, please wait here for a while, your majesty, after disinfection, you can Enter the lab area."

Not to mention that there is no way to contact this precious night clan life!

"Oh." Ao Yin stood indifferently for a moment, then turned and walked out, "Then, you put it next to this creature."

Li Zhuonan opened her eyelids with force, and found that someone was pointing at her from afar. After a little struggle, the operating table that can automatically deform according to the shape of the spine supports her to sit up halfway.

"Ao Yin..."

"According to the rules, you should call me Your Majesty."

Who is this alienated person?

Li Zhuonan suddenly panicked for a moment, seeing her use displeased eyes to force the researchers to put the baby back...finally he was relieved.

"I am..." What is she?companion?food?It doesn't seem like that kind of thing.

Li Zhuonan thought for a while, and said seriously: "Your crystal nucleus is here with me, it supports us to meet, and also supports me to live."

Before she finished speaking, Ao Yin immediately stepped forward: "Crystal nucleus? Mine? Why?"

"Speaking of it, it's a very long story." Li Zhuonan was a little tired, and slowly lay down, "Feng Ji hopes to find the key to the reproduction of the race from you, well, after going through a lot of stories, we just..."

Ao Yin interrupted her coldly: "I don't care about your business, I just need to clarify the part about the crystal nucleus."

"You!" Li Zhuonan was furious, although she had long been prepared to see her as a new person after the change, but the current Ao Yin...is too worthless!

The face that she resolutely cut out the crystal nucleus and stuffed it into her is still in front of her eyes, why is it like this now?

Li Zhuonan's body, which was powered by the crystal nucleus, recovered quite quickly. He rubbed his chest to gather strength, and took a deep breath: "What you want to know is related to me. And the night clan has found a way to reproduce."

"Is it this creature?" Ao Yin glanced at the sleeping baby with her eyes closed, and shook her head decisively, "Impossible, without a crystal nucleus, she has been frantically searching for energy since she could breathe."

"This is your baby."

"...Ah?" His Majesty Aoyin was deeply at a loss for this word.

Li Zhuonan, as a strong woman who gave birth to a vegetative state, stepped off the operating table and confronted the former Duke aggressively: "This is your descendant, and it is also mine."

Ao Yin stared at the baby for a moment: "Descendants? Although Feng Ji has been conducting this research for thousands of years, to be honest, I don't have much hope. Remember the legend I told you before? Discover the crystal nucleus and make it The ancestor who was assigned to the tribe was still alive after the first migration, claiming that he had found a way to grow the tribe—then what? The night tribe began to kill each other, killing the ancestor and destroying the planet."

When Ao Yin said this, she smiled mockingly: "I always think that since then, the crystal nucleus has been extremely important to our family, because it exists to completely destroy our family."

The Night Clan used to be a warlike race with high consumption. The energy stones will be exhausted, and they will be caught in a civil war with each other.

Clans fought against each other until the last Yeclan got the crystal nucleus of all the clansmen, and then died of exhaustion of energy... What a cruel method of death, more cruel than the attack of the Cocoon Clan and the poison of the Wupa Clan!

"--not like this!"

Li Zhuonan also thought so in the past, but he didn't understand the true meaning of the crystal nucleus until today.

"The Ye clan has already mutated after getting the crystal nucleus, and can no longer continue with the original method of reproduction... But reproduction is not a struggle! It is correct to continue in this way, and then find the real way of reproduction. The way to fight is not to fight, but to distribute the existing crystal nucleus to others..."

There is no right or wrong in the existence of crystal nuclei, just like Li Zhuonan did not realize that the life on that planet has nothing to do with the earth until the end of the world. No matter how many times human beings rise and fall, that star will always hang in the universe and can be called the earth.

Ao Yin still didn't take it seriously: "It's really a good idea, give it to the same clan, and even save the fight."

"This universe is very big, not only the night people, but also the Neville people and the earth people. You once gave me the crystal nucleus, so I give you a hope." Li Zhuonan said firmly, turning his head to look at the shallow breathing small creatures.

Life is not only fighting and fighting, but also sharing and continuation.

Find the person who is very important to you, and give her what you are very important to... is the continuation.

Then get another you in the world.

It's really... moving, the eyes of life.

That day, was it because of this gaze that she gave her crystal nucleus?

Ao Yin approached uncontrollably as if attracted, leaned over and gently touched the baby's cheek, the touch from her fingertips was soft, and a large number of memories that had been heavily imprisoned in her heart surged out, as if echoing that feeling.

It's back, it's all back.

From the beginning to the end, it is perfectly connected into a line.

As agreed that day, he looked at Li Zhuonan and smiled: "...Remember what we said, after I am reborn, you will fill up those memories."

At the same time, the tiny baby opened its eyes.

Those were a pair of crystal purple eyes exactly the same as Ao Yin's.
