Chapter 163 Lava pirates (5)

"It's all a bunch of short-sighted guys."

In the dim Yin Beidou underground, Lieutenant General Jin Min shook his head and said bitterly, "Most of the thieves have no culture. They should think that this robbery is no different from previous years."

But it is the same as before, attacking the starship of the great empire, killing some people happily, looting some resources, and returning with a full load, you can provide the brothers with half a year's life.

Still drinking in big bowls, eating big pieces of meat, and being a free-spirited hero in this sea of ​​stars.

However, this is the battle.

The Empire is without their founding commander-in-chief.

Jiang Jianming felt that the blood all over his body was cooling down.

What he perceives is far beyond the perspective of Lieutenant General Jin.

Because he had seen it before, he had seen the morning when Kaios' consciousness returned. Lin Ge and Sylph came hurriedly, they shouted without image, broke each other down, and even pulled and pulled.

It was as if they were no longer the emperors of the empire or the leaders of the base, but two young women running along the years, and then grabbed the corner of Time's clothes.

Jiang Jianming didn't know what would have happened if the commander-in-chief was there at that time.

He didn't even know how deep the hatred and unwillingness was, how many blood and tears piled up in the years...

Only then can the empress, who was full of sneering, laughing and scolding, chased five galaxies in the universe alone, and stabbed the laser spear into Chiyu's throat with her own hands.

Only then can such a tolerant and kind leader be able to peel off the crystal particles from the red fish's corpse and make a bloody and taboo long sword for the emperor.

For a long time, he didn't like unnecessary wars, endless hatred, or crystal bone weapons that violated ethics, and he even fought against His Highness for this.

He should have shaken his head secretly because the emperor had done extreme things when he was fighting the thieves, and then he felt that the leader, as a researcher, crossed that line was really irrational.

But the fact is, standing in the dungeon of the second fortress at this moment, Jiang Jianming has only one dazed thought in his heart——

When the commander-in-chief passed away, Lin Ge was not yet thirty years old. Sylph was just in her early twenties, and in this interstellar age, she could still be called the age of a girl.

Later, the truth of the crystal particles was exposed, and the emperor left, entrusting the future of the empire and the fate of mankind to them.

They must have had a hard time all these years.

Also very lonely.

Suddenly, his heart was cut like a knife, and his vision was blurred by the mist. Jiang Jianming blinked blankly, and a tear rolled down his cheek.

When he reacted, he was startled. Fortunately, the environment was dark, and Lieutenant General Jin was also feeling emotional and did not notice this.

Jiang Jianming quickly wiped away the tears, and thought in shock: What's the matter, am I so sentimental?

Gao Long was still chattering: "Oh, but why was the Great Emperor in such a hurry to reach the stars, little brother, general, do you know?"

"Hey, you must not know! But I," he said with a thumbs up to himself, "I know!"

Jiang Jianming's thoughts flew long ago, and he only perfunctory "ummmmm", anyway, this big man must be talking about unofficial rumors from nowhere.

Regardless of whether he insists on a truce, Gao Long's matter or Lava's matter cannot be arranged in three or two days. Jiang Jianming turned around and walked out of the dungeon with Jin Min.

"It is said!" Behind him, Gao Long took a deep breath, "His Majesty the Great Emperor was in a hurry to send troops back then because the supply of real crystal mines in China was insufficient. But His Majesty he..."

He deliberately and mysteriously paused for a few seconds, suffocating himself until his face flushed red-of course, it might not be suffocating, but simply excited.

"Because Your Majesty! He was unfaithful to the then Queen Sylph, and fell in love with a disabled human who was in the late stage of the Crystal Rebellion!"

Jiang Jianming stumbled and almost stumbled on the threshold.

His first reaction was: help.

He really didn't want to listen to more suffocating gossip about the founding of the country.

But when Jiang Jianming stabilized his steps, and in the midst of Jin Min's anger, he tried his best to take two steps forward—

As if struck by a white lightning, he suddenly stopped!

and many more!

A thought suddenly pierced, Jiang Jianming's back was standing with chills, and all kinds of doubts in his heart surged again.

He remembered... yes, just before this expedition, he had doubted whether he was also the base of some projection.

This kind of stuff is unreliable.

But as the old saying goes, there is no wind and no waves.

Why did the leader Sylph, who was the empress dowager, readily agree to witness the marriage for him and Ryan?

Even if the emperor and the queen were in a political marriage, isn't there something wrong with that kind of gratified attitude like marrying a child?

And why does His Majesty Lin Ge treat him so amiably, calling him "clearly" every day, without hesitating at all about the outrageous matter of the disabled people entering the royal family?

Thinking about it, Jiang Jianming's face turned pale, his hands and feet were cold, and his heart was pounding until his eyes were black.

The most important thing is: when Emperor Kaios returned to consciousness that day, why did he treat him with undiminished affection?

As Lean said a few days ago, such a founding emperor who can be called a hero in troubled times, did he really accept it without any hesitation because he had a new disabled human being who had been in love for two or three years?

In the era when the Great Emperor lived, the crippled human beings were an inferior race of iron and steel...

But what if Kaios himself fell in love with a disabled human back then, and Lin Ge, Sylph and the others also knew about it?

Also, the last words in the crown of Jin Xiao. He once guessed that the images inside were related to the founding years, if "awakening" refers to the projection of the matrix...

If those words were not actually left by Little Highness Ryan, but a love poem between Emperor Kaios and his lover in his previous life; when Kaios' memory woke up when the base was dying, he left it to himself... …

If so, then everything is right!

Jiang Jianming hurriedly supported a pipe embedded in the wall beside him before stepping on his feet. He was terrified: So, in his previous life, wouldn't he be——

What Gao Long was talking about, don't know what heard from an unofficial history, the real little lover of Emperor Kaios... or something! ?

This guess not only did not make Jiang Jianming feel the happiness of "love between two worlds", but it seemed to kick him into the abyss.

The situation is tense, and at the moment of the war, he doesn't want to disturb his mood with unnecessary self-torture.

But can't control it. Jiang Jianming couldn't help substituting into the scene of the year, and he began to imagine that if he was really seriously ill.

A new empire is established, the darkness has been driven out, but he is dying. Without real crystal ore, there is no way to make medicines and tranquilizers.

The newly enthroned His Majesty refused to accept his fate - this is indeed very similar to Ryan's style. Under the pressure of all parties, he did not hesitate to quarrel with the commander who had assisted him since childhood, and then the emperor broke with the commander.

Jiang Jianming had a terrible headache just thinking about it, and thought to himself, isn't this nonsense, for a little lover's adventure, if he is Aslan, he will be anxious with Ryan!

In the end, the new emperor went alone, led the fleet, and traveled in blood in the unexplored far-off star.

It would be nice if it hadn't been for that sneak attack. If this is the case, perhaps after the emperor's peaceful victory, he can extend the life of his sweetheart as he wishes, and he can also apologize and reconcile with the commander-in-chief.

If it was Ryan's character, he would pick a sunny afternoon to visit in person. First, his face was sullen, and he hummed reservedly: What, didn't I win, it seems that the commander's judgment was also wrong at times.

Then he put down his body and said in a soft and magnetic tone: ... don't be angry, and recuperate in peace, I know that the commander is for my own good.

Real history is not like that.

The lava is coming, the fleet is trapped in the star sea and fighting hard, the lives of the warriors are passing, and the hard-earned real crystal ore will also be robbed.

The young new emperor will fight like a beast, and he must have the same powerful crystal bone as Ryan.

But everything still leads to that irreversible situation.

That night, Jiang Jianming closed himself.

Ryan withdraws his troops and returns, seeing him so distracted and absent-minded, it's like seeing red rain falling from the sky.

At the dining table, the black-haired disabled human moved slowly to pick up the dishes, but the flickering of his eyes showed that he was in a daze.

The picked up dish was not delivered to the mouth for a long time, and finally fell back to the place pitifully.

Ryan couldn't stand it anymore, so he picked a piece of meat to feed him: "What the hell happened to you? Someone bullied you today? Or did Jin Min say something to you?"

Jiang Jianming chewed and swallowed mechanically, and remained in that dazed state for a long while, then whispered, "Your Highness, if one day I'm going to die..."

He couldn't finish speaking, and with a bang, Ryan slammed the bowl.

Jiang Jianming finally came back sober, and quickly put a few mouthfuls of food into his mouth: "Sorry, I was talking nonsense."

Ryan got up directly and went outside the room. After five minutes, His Highness strode back, and impatiently pulled away the chair Jiang Jianming was sitting on: "Have you gone to the dungeon?"

Is this the night communication harassing Lieutenant General Jin... Jiang Jianming was pulled up in confusion, and was pushed into His Highness's arms the next second.

The chopsticks in his hands fell off, making a crackling sound on the floor.

Ryan hugged him tightly, pressed his chin to his face, hurt and angry, and muttered, "How many times have I told you—"

"Ah...it's not," Jiang Jianming realized something, he patted Ryan's tense shoulder, "don't think about it, it's not a problem of stress disorder."

Lean was dubious, he simply picked up Jiang Jianming's crooked legs, carried him directly to the bed, and skillfully took off his coat, shoes and socks.

Then he turned on the warm yellow bedside lamp, took off his robe, got into the quilt and hugged him: "What's the problem, you're not normal."

In Ryan's eyes, Jiang Jianming's skills in forbearance and restraint are very strong, no less than his tactical attainments.

Whatever happened to him before, he was in a mood, and Jiang Lai solved him. He had never seen Jiang lose his temper like this before.

Ryan tentatively said: "Jin Min said, do you intend to make peace with the lava?"

"..." Jiang Jianming's jaw clenched, unable to speak.

He did mean it. But if the guess is true, then his original body is the root cause of the tragedy of the year. "Please put down the hatred and the lava truce for the empire", no one should mention it.

What will your majesty and the leader think when they hear it, and what will Ryan know about him in the future?

But even so. Jiang Jianming lowered his eyelashes coldly. He bit the soft flesh inside his mouth and thought to himself, knowing that he was sorry for Commander Aslan, he must...

"Yes, the race war between crystal particles and human beings is the first. I hope that the empire can truce with lava in the near future."

Ryan was silent for two breaths, and said, "As long as the slaughtering thief is still on the singer Lin for a day, it will be impossible."

"Then ask Your Majesty to destroy it."

Jiang Jianming controlled his voice not to shake, perhaps because he had the mental support of doing one thing and another, he did it perfectly.

"I will personally submit this proposal to Your Majesty. Crystal bone weapons should never exist in a peaceful world. The same is true of the ring you gave me."

He took off the black leather gloves and glanced at his ring finger: "I won't keep it until the war is over."

Jiang Jianming's original intention to say this is very heartless. But Ryan was in a good mood when he heard it.

He ripped off the collar of the disabled man's shirt and pressed it onto the bed, first rubbing the pale and delicate back of his neck with his lips, then biting lightly with his canine teeth exposed, and said with a smile, "Of course, I allow it."

So Jiang Jianming understood in his heart, and then stinged. In the warm yellow halo, he closed his eyes and put his forehead on Ryan's heart.

——What I want to imply is that the wedding ring you cast for me without hesitation, I will throw it away without hesitation. I am such an indifferent person.

The message that his little highness received was: the war would end, and Jiang Jianming was still alive at that time.

...

The next day, Jiang Jianming was forced to take a day off.

It is true that sitting in the command seat of the flagship saves physical strength than sitting in the mecha control seat, but the mental consumption cannot be said to be easy.

Ryan was uneasy about his state in various senses. He locked him in the treatment cabin late at night, and he was not allowed to go out alone during the day.

Jiang Jianming had no choice but to stay in the bedroom and read books and military information. By the way, he wrote a report to the emperor in the manner of "I'm ruthless, I'm ruthless, and I have no conscience." He didn't waste any time.

In fact, Jiang Jianming is definitely a cautious person. Now there is only speculation, and he knows that what he should do is to verify rather than believe.

Coincidentally, what he is going to do now is too much. Jiang Jianming was worried that angering His Majesty Lin Ge would miss the big picture, thinking that the only excuse he had left was "the one who doesn't know is not guilty", but he didn't dare to say it.

I have to say that all kinds of ironic oolongs in the world are probably like this... born from the addition of various coincidences.

Jiang Jianming imagined countless outcomes, including all kinds of dire situations. But the truth was something he never expected.

The first galaxy of the empire, Aslan Star City, White Emerald Palace.

At five o'clock in the morning, the depths of the palace were empty. Lin Ge wore her long hair loose, and she sat in the early morning surrounded by golden roses, like a classical sculpture of a woman.

After a long time, the queen said to herself, "Sylph, sometimes I think he really has a wonderful ability—"

Next to it is Sylph's communication projection. The leader put on a black hood again, and put on a mysterious black dress, like a solid black mountain.

She said in an inorganic electronic voice, "Oh."

"It's obviously that he is torturing others," Lin Ge's eyes turned a little scarlet, and she gritted her teeth, "It also makes everyone feel that he is the one who is tormented the most."

The leader said calmly: "Are you sure you didn't say the opposite: he is the one who suffers the most, but he always has the ability to make others feel that he is torturing others."

The queen turned a deaf ear, "Oh, do you know what I received yesterday? He..."

Lin Ge covered her eyes and laughed, her shoulders shrugged, making people think she was crying, "He actually proposed to me to make peace with Lava... Hahaha..."

"For so many years, everyone in the empire has known how much I hate lava, and even the old head Chen only dares to come and slap a few words occasionally, but it's him..."

Lin Ge buried his head deeply, touched his forehead with the palm of his hand, and clenched his messy black hair tightly with his five fingers, "Tell me, why is this person still the same, Sylph, what are you talking about?"

Sylph was silent for a long time, and then his fingers in black armor moved, as if he wanted to raise his hand to appease the queen.

But remembered that this was just a communication projection, and there was a vast galaxy between the two.

So the leader withdrew his hand and said slowly, "Actually, back then, the night when you created a slaughter thief..."

Lin Ge: "Do you regret it?"

Sylph: "No, I just dreamed that the commander scolded me."

"I stood in front of him dejectedly and was trained, wearing the snow-white dress that I first saw him, with delicate braids, she was a girl who had just turned eighteen years old."

"That's how I first saw you, Lin Ge."

Lin Ge shook his head and said hoarsely, "I can't go back to that time, Sylph... It's been too many years."

Sylph: "Are you really going to keep hiding it from him?"

Lin Ge: "What? I don't understand."

Sylph: "It's no use pretending to be crazy. When are you going to tell the commander about his current base status?"

Lin Ge lowered his head and laughed, his scarlet eyes flashing faintly: "Boss, what's wrong with you?"

"Dawn Yaslan is dead, let Mingming become the life of 'Jiang Jianming'... Isn't this what we promised at the beginning?"

"At the time," the leader said, "we didn't expect the appearance of the Crystal Cult, and we didn't expect the decisive battle ahead of schedule."

"so what!?"

Lin Ge suddenly slapped the table with a grief-stricken expression: "What do you think of him, a living dead that can be dug up from the tomb and used at any time once the situation is difficult!?"

There was silence for a few seconds.

The leader remained motionless, and the icy black hood completely covered her expression.

Until the electronic sound rang: "Lin Ge, I'll give you a chance to withdraw your slip of the tongue."

There was a moment of silence in the blooming garden of golden roses, only birds chirping in the shadows of the trees in the distance, accompanied by the breeze blowing the branches and leaves of this spring.

The queen sat back tiredly and muttered with her forehead propped, "...I'm sorry."

The author has something to say:

Lay: I don't trust Kaios.

Jiang: I'm sorry Aslan.
