They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 514 Saifei's Unexpected Motherhood

After Screw Gum finished describing the current military strength of the Anti-Iron Tomb Alliance, Dan Lei felt that it was about time.

Although the two largest powers, Interstellar Peace Corporation and Immortal Boat Alliance, have not yet determined the exact number of troops they will send.

But Danlei wasn't worried that the two factions were just sending small fry to make a show of things.

Interstellar Peace Corporation is a large and powerful company, and the area around Onfaros is entirely its territory.

This place is not an important interstellar hub.

But guess what? After the Iron Tomb is created, if it goes on a rampage of destruction, will it destroy areas with many people or areas with few people?

The Interstellar Peace Corporation will not take any chances. If the Iron Tomb is going to destroy the universe, it will definitely go to places with many people. Starting from Onpharos, all the places with many people nearby are important hubs for the Interstellar Peace Corporation.

Therefore, the Interstellar Peace Corporation will definitely respond positively. Even if they don't send all their military forces, at least most of their military forces will be there.

Don't underestimate the military strength of just one department of Interstellar Peace Corporation.

To survive in the company, you absolutely need to have some fighting skills.

Even the Strategic Investment Department, whose combat power is mainly composed of top-tier Destiny Walkers, has a considerable number of fleets under its command.

Departments like the Building Materials and Logistics Department, which already have a large number of ships—various types of warships, gunboats, transport ships, and supply ships—only need a small portion of them to fill the entire Onfaros star system.

As for the Immortal Boat Alliance, there's even less to worry about; Luo Fu will definitely come.

With the great cause of supporting Danlei at stake, if Jingyuan dared not come, Lingsha would definitely lead the Luofu Chiming Clan in rebellion.

Moreover, Yaoqing and Fanghu will definitely be vying for it.

Given Fei Xiao's temper, she might just disobey the alliance's orders and force Yao Qing to come over.

For her, it won't be long before she has to step down from her position as general and focus on her pregnancy.

While she still has power, she certainly wouldn't mind doing something outrageous.

Anyway, with the dragon fetus in her belly, and the fox clan and Yaoqing Chiming protecting her together, the alliance definitely wouldn't dare to imprison Feixiaoguan.

Of course, once Fei Xiao returns, he can forget about going to the battlefield; at most, he can command from the rear, and he himself cannot be considered a combatant.

However, Screwgoom seems to have omitted how many troops he was preparing to bring.

Dan Lei wasn't worried that Screw Gum was holding back his strength during the Iron Tomb incident; he simply asked out of curiosity.

"Screw Gum, in principle, the Anti-Iron Tomb Alliance's combat strength is now sufficient."

But I'm still curious, how many troops did Screwstar send this time?

After Danlei asked the question, Screw Gum's mechanical face did not change, but he suddenly gave off a strange feeling of showing off.

Screw Gum replied calmly.

"The council of Screwstar doesn't quite understand this war."

Therefore, I will bring two of my personal collectibles with me to this battle; both are planetary-level.

Screw Gum is just showing off.

Screw Gumm's hobby is collecting weapons. To be included in his collection, weapons must either be extremely powerful or have a design that represents a certain era and is considered a classic.

The planetary-level artifacts are almost certainly a super-enlarged version of the Death Star from Star Wars, with its size directly enlarged to the level of a planet.

The extent of its firepower and the number of small drones hidden inside are unknown.

In any case, if the fleet under the company's marketing department encounters Roosgum's planetary fortress collection, it will most likely be forced to flee in disarray, or it will become space junk.

Screwgoom's ability to single-handedly intimidate the Interstellar Peace Corporation is not solely due to his reputation as a genius.

Sure enough, after Screw Gum finished speaking, Black Tower promptly retorted.
"Tch, you're really rich. Once your fortress opens up, my space station will be like a worthless toy."

Screws didn't respond to Black Tower's rant, but he clearly enjoyed it.

Danlei understands this feeling. In his past life, when he was showing off to his friends in the model kit community that he had snagged a limited edition transparent Psycho Red Zaku, they complained that the model had too many parts and was difficult to assemble, and he was secretly pleased.

(The image below shows the incomplete state, without the backpack installed or stickers.)
So, having satisfied his curiosity and also indulged in a bit of Screw's vanity, Danlei continued...
“Alright, then the external forces are definitely enough. Please launch an attack on the Scepter at the same time as the Allied Forces officially begin their operations within our ranks.”

We must force Ragus to use all of Kuroshio's power for external defense, thereby reducing internal pressure.

In addition, the time difference issue also needs to be addressed.

The firewall of the scepter is best breached before our internal plans are completed.

This would prevent Lai Gu Shi from actively stopping the birth of the Iron Tomb after discovering that Xi Lian had taken over its brain.

"Once Xi Lian's brain is reconnected to the Iron Tomb, Lai Gu Shi will definitely find a way to destroy her again. We can't give him that time."

Danlei's arrangement is fine, Heita nodded directly.

“No problem. Screw and I were planning to break through the Iron Tomb firewall from the outside to see what the situation inside was like.”

We will do this in conjunction with your internal summoning of the Dominix of the Will, so that the senior can run more threads and clear up his stubborn wisdom module.

Furthermore, Danlei, when you finally connect to [Boshi Zun], you'll need a physical body, right? When Luosigumu and I come in, we'll help you bring your body into the scepter.”

Dan Lei had no reason to shy away from entrusting his body to Hei Ta. The two knew each other inside and out, and Hei Ta had already thoroughly studied his body from the inside out.

That's about all the arrangements Danlei could make in advance.

The subsequent meeting was to discuss various possible unforeseen circumstances based on Danlei's arrangements, and then to formulate Plan B.

The meeting lasted for three whole days before it finally came to a close.

However, the people attending the meeting were all superhuman in some ways; going three days without sleep was really no big deal for them.

Moreover, for those like Black Tower and Screw Gum who participated through mental projection, they were merely indulging in a daydream for a while.

The day after the meeting, Danlei returned to Janusapolis with all the Golden Descendants from the previous cycle.

From that day on, the Eye of Dawn and Dusk set off from Janusapolis, ostensibly to spread the Dragon God faith, and began to "preach" to the southwestern city-states of Onphalus.

Since the dragon god Danlei truly exists and is far more active than the Titans, the missionary work proceeded quite smoothly, with almost no bloodshed.

Of course, this is also related to the principle that the Eyes of Dawn and Dusk adheres to: not attacking cities, not forcing, but gradually influencing people.

For stubborn city-states, the Eye of Dawn and Dusk merely cuts off their surrounding trade routes and accepts their fleeing refugees.

Generally speaking, a stubborn and inflexible city-state is not an agricultural city-state.

Because agricultural city-states generally worshipped the Titan Georia of the Earth.

Now, the egg of Georia is placed in the valley behind Janusapolis, and the news of its rescue and rebirth by the Dragon God has long since spread throughout Onpharos. Therefore, agricultural city-states generally do not need to be threatened. Once the division of power among the city-states is clarified, the city lords will obediently join the Dragon God's alliance.

For non-agricultural city-states, having their trade routes cut off is equivalent to cutting off their external food supply. Ordinary city-states will not have much food reserves, and within a year, famine will inevitably strike the city.

If they attack the Eye of Dawn and Dusk now, the Eye of Dawn and Dusk can simply use the pretext of self-defense to kill the city lord.

If he stubbornly resists, eventually the army will run out of food, and the city lord will naturally be overthrown.

Later, when the Eye of Dawn and Dusk brought in more food, the starving people didn't care what role the Eye of Dawn and Dusk played in the famine. They only knew that the Eye of Dawn and Dusk had saved them.

At this point, they would do whatever Seneos asked them to do.

Using this method, all the city-states in the southwest of Onfaros, except for a few around the Divine Tree Court, joined the Dragon God Alliance within forty years.

According to the map, at this point, a quarter of Onpharos's territory had fallen to the Dragon God Alliance.

Even Suspended Peak City was driven to the eastern part of Onfaros by the Eye of Dawn and Dusk.

Of course, the Dragon God Alliance was not the only one that continued to expand over the past forty years.

After obtaining information about the thirteenth Titan, Dromg, Cernydra returned directly to Ohmar.

Danlei guessed that she would definitely interrogate Laigushi alone after she returned.

However, Crydella certainly can't do anything to Lygus, and probably won't get the truth she wants.

Moreover, as the Eye of Dawn and Dusk began to openly expand the Dragon God Alliance's sphere of influence, Cerudela, who intended to unify Onpharos, naturally wouldn't just stand by and watch.

Directly confronting Janusapolis is definitely not realistic.

Krydella wasn't stupid; she knew that Danlei would most likely not intervene in the battles against the other city-states of the Dragon God Alliance.

If Danlei really wanted to rule Onphalus, he could simply go to Ohma and demand his surrender.

After her journey through the Great Tomb of Demug, Crydella has confirmed that she is currently unable to contend with the dragon god Danle.

If Danlei were to rule Onpharos now, Kerudela would have no choice but to submit if she didn't want to die.

The reality is that the Dragon God Alliance's expansion, Danlei, did not make a move, and even the dragon riders did not launch an attack.

Therefore, Ceryldra judged that this expansion was Seneos's personal ambition.

After all, Saint Mortes, the leader of Janusapolis, was a thoroughly good person and would never have the idea of ​​invading other city-states.

The governor sent down by Danlei, Navilette, was also quite well-behaved and showed no aggression towards outsiders.

Cerudela was not surprised that Seneos was ambitious.

After all, people are inherently greedy. She managed the Eye of Dawn and Dusk quite well and had plenty of room to expand.

Moreover, Seneos was indeed very warlike, a fact she never concealed.

Therefore, in order to counter Seneos, who was simply taking the blame, Crydela also spent the last forty years trying to reclaim the central and northern city-states of Onphalus.

Now that the Black Tide has begun to make landfall in the eastern part of Onfaros, the coastal city-states have remained neutral as no one has attempted to occupy them.

With the Divine Tree Court officially joining the Ohma Alliance, the remaining areas of northern and central Onfaros have now formed a line, creating a standoff with the Dragon God Alliance in the western part of the continent.

In terms of the number of military and civilian personnel, the Ohma Alliance holds an absolute advantage.

However, in terms of economy, resources, and troop quality, the Dragon Riders and the Dragon God Alliance of the entire Orenos Plateau have a clear advantage.

Therefore, the two sides will not fight for a while. Both sides need to build up their strength and then decide the outcome in one battle.

This situation is clearly what Lai Gushi wanted to see.

As long as the people of Onfaros do not unite, as long as they continue to fight, whether against each other or against the Black Tide, they will become nourishment for the Iron Tomb.

Thus, for the past forty years, Lai Gushi has made no move whatsoever, watching helplessly as the number of Onfaros under Dan Lei's control has increased.

He didn't even notice that in the past forty years, Danlei had sent all the descendants of the Ohmah refugees from the previous cycle to this cycle.

These people have lived in the Temple of Immortality for over 150 years and have multiplied for several generations; they are now true believers of the Dragon God.

They are currently spreading the word about Dan Lei's greatness throughout the Dragon God Alliance territory.

However, these believers probably didn't realize that Danlei was facing an extremely troublesome problem at this moment.

Inside the city of Janusapolis, an eight-year-old kitten girl sat in Danlei's lap, tugging at his collar and sobbing uncontrollably.
"Waaaaah~~ Dragon God, my mom doesn't want me anymore, waaaaah~~ She insists she's my older sister, I'm a child without a mother now, waaaaah~~~"

The person who can be so unrestrained with Danlei is none other than the little Sefalia of this cycle.

Cephalia was born in Dolos, the city of bandits, in the year 3942 of the Light Calendar.

Saifeier had no recollection of her exact birthplace or her parents; she had no memory of them whatsoever.

Her earliest memories of herself consist of only a slum and a sewer.

She was raised by kind people in the slums, and from the time she could remember, she made a living in the sewers.

Because she was too young and weak, she was no match for the food in the garbage from the homeless people in the sewers.

That's why hunger drove him to steal bread and dried fruit from the temple.

So, starting in the year 3942 of the Light Calendar, Cypher returned to the slums of Dolos, constantly searching for her childhood self.

Finally, at the end of the year 3944, they found little Cephalia, who was still an infant and had been abandoned in the slums.

Saifeier felt a little regretful that she didn't get to see her real parents, but at least in this reincarnation, she didn't have to suffer as a child.

Needless to say, little Sefaria was taken back to Janusapolis and received princess-like treatment.

Aglaia wove the warmest and most comfortable golden cradle for her with golden threads, watching over her day and night.

Saifel found the best goat milk to nourish little Saifelia.

Danlei would also come to play with little Sefalia from time to time, enjoying the happiness of raising a kitten.

However, as little Safalia grows up and studies, she begins to wonder, where is her mother?

Danlei is the Dragon God, she knew that from the beginning, so she didn't make the mistake of Danlei being her father.

But with so many aunties around, which one was her mother? Little Sefalia was very confused.

Aglaia's mother is clearly not her biological mother, because she doesn't have cat ears or a cat tail.

After thinking for a long time, the only person around who met the criteria was Saifeier, who came to see her every day and taught her various skills, but only allowed her to call her "sister".

Saifeier was also helpless about this. She couldn't accept that her younger self called her "Mom" when she was little, so she always referred to herself as little Saifeier's older sister.

Little Sefaria was easy to fool when she was young, but she became less so as she grew older.

Learn about the elite education program jointly designed by Aglaia and Mortes.

Little Safalia knew far more than an average eight-year-old. After extensive analysis and considering her own almost identical body odor with Safalia's, she determined that Safalia was her biological mother, not some older sister.

Because Sai Fei'er is over a thousand years old, including her age in the previous cycle, no matter how hard she tries, she can't pretend to be only a teenager.

You should know that Dolores' cats, even the Golden Clan, are almost the size of adults in their twenties.

　When the pioneers arrived in Ohema in the year 3960 of the Light Calendar, Seifer was in adult form and was only 28 years old.
