Successors of all mankind

"what?"

Have you smelled him?

"Kiss? How could I... I didn't..."

Emerald's face flushed instantly after mishearing the pronunciation.

This left the Golden Princess speechless. How could she have misheard, or was this what she wanted to hear? Because this is what she wanted to hear?

But was it just a kiss?

So lacking in aggression?

The Golden Princess was somewhat taken aback.

"I just... I just wanted to ask you if you still remember his taste."

Jade became increasingly confused. Her face flushed, she kept looking around, and the soldiers and officers all wisely left.

Soon, only the two princesses remained on the huge bridge.

But Jade was even more at a loss.

"Why ask these questions right away? We...we just exchanged rings! Use my hair..."

Did you braid a ring for him with your hair?

This seems to be a tradition from humankind; I recall it being a tradition from when the Noor government was first established.

But I don't remember this process being much later than the physical contact, right?

Should I say you're either too lacking in aggression or too aggressive?

His friend's reaction left Huang Jin even more speechless.

She could only cover her face and ask bluntly:

"I'm asking if you've ever smelled him, what kind of smell it gives you. By the grace of mankind, stop thinking about any frivolous topics!"

Is that so?

Princess Emerald was stunned and completely dejected.

So that's how it is...

She was too embarrassed to face anyone.

"So what happened? What exactly happened?"

Seeing that his friend hadn't replied, Huang Jin became anxious.

After a long while, the jade finally spoke.

Her voice was a little lower than before, as if she were recalling something she wasn't quite sure how to describe in words:

"I haven't really thought about this question seriously."

She paused for a moment, as if carefully recalling everything that had happened.

"But he does have a reassuring quality about him, how should I put it?"

"It's like, it's like..."

Although I recall it very carefully, and I am certain that I will probably never forget everything from that day.

But jade doesn't quite capture that feeling.

Until a voice spoke for her and said it all:

"It's like living in a house that's never been well-ventilated, and then suddenly a window is opened. Only now do I realize that I can actually breathe properly?"

This answer made Jade's eyes light up:

"Yes, that's it! But how do you know?"

Yes, how would I know?

Because that's how I felt when I met him!

The Golden Princess did not answer the Emerald Princess's question.

She simply looked at him quietly with a subtle gaze.

How should I describe that look in his eyes?

Sorrow? Expectation? Confusion? Doubt? It seems like all of them.

And most importantly, they both saw the same emotion in each other's eyes, an emotion that was absolutely correct—defense!

This discovery caused the two princesses to frown instantly, and then they both took a step back.

Gold and emeralds, the most beautiful treasures of Albion and France.

It was also the only link between the two dynasties.

Now, the strait that separates the two countries seems to have appeared silently between them.

Silence, and then more silence, and more guardedness!

Finally, it was the Golden Princess who broke the silence first. She chuckled and extended her hand, her eyes bright and her smile radiant.

"In any case, the rebellion hasn't been resolved yet. Let's go to the capital together and settle everything, shall we?"

Jade's outstretched hand hesitated in mid-air for a moment before finally grasping it.

The link between the two dynasties still exists, but it seems to have been replaced by something else in a haphazard way.

Yu Le boarded the royal fleet's flagship in a small boat.

As he arrived, the taxi driver waiting at the door immediately announced loudly:

"Gentlemen, the Prince of Condé, the Duke of Guise, and the Protector of the whole of France, Prince Jules Robespierre, has arrived!"

The taxi drivers and officers on the bridge immediately stopped what they were doing, stood up in unison, and stomped their feet in salute.

Seeing this scene, before Yu Le could say anything...

Then the commander beside him said loudly:

"Command transfer confirmed. The highest-ranking officer of the fleet is now Prince Condé!"

Then, the commander suddenly turned around, saluted Yu Le, and said:

"Your Highness, please give the order!"

As for the female knight, when Yu Le arrived at the flagship, she left the bridge and went to the tarmac to wait.

Yu Le was stunned for a moment; he still wasn't quite used to these things.

He could only cough once before addressing everyone:

"Sit down, that's fine. And then..."

Yu Le looked at the commander and gave him his first instruction:

"Heading towards the capital, the church has no intention of letting this go. We will resolve everything!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

After saying this, the commander immediately turned to his subordinates and gave them instructions:

"Adjust coordinates, target the capital, prepare for the leap!"

Yu Le thought the other party would ask why he didn't wait for the princess.

It actually executed its command so easily?

This prompted Yu Le to ask:

"Aren't you going to ask why we're not waiting for the princess?"

The commander simply said:

“I am a soldier, Your Highness, and my mission is to obey. You are the supreme commander, and I carry out your orders. I believe Your Highness is the same in this regard.”

After saying that, the commander also reminded Yu Le of something:

"You are now the protector of the entire territory!"

The protector of all of France, the commander of all the armies.

After letting out a soft "Ah," Yu Le sat down in his main seat.

Then, before the fleet leaped away.

He glanced back at the flagship, whose bridge was still under repair.

He did indeed intentionally avoid the Golden Princess.

Constantine is dead and should not appear.

Then he could indeed leave now and go directly to Ruins Zero to take the key.

However, in doing so, he lost another important thing—the Book of the Dead!

Yu Le had a premonition that it was a product of the same kind as the Roman laurel wreath.

Obtaining it will likely bring about significant changes for me.

Chapter 109 Crabs and Crab Eaters (4k)

The leaping light briefly spread out outside the bridge, like a thin veil being stretched rapidly, before contracting and disappearing.

Yu Le sat in the conductor's seat, feeling the very slight vibrations coming from beneath his feet.

He had never experienced migration before; for the 2K savages, it was just something from stories.

He had expected it to be a violent and bumpy process, but it was actually much quieter than he had anticipated.

It's like a door closing behind you, and then opening again to find yourself in another place.

The novel experience prompted Yu Le to ask curiously:

"What kind of technology is this? And what are its underlying principles?"

The commander, thinking Yu Le was asking him, lowered his head regretfully and said:

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, but to this day, even the Church is completely unable to comprehend these advanced technologies from great humankind."

"We've only learned how to use it; we don't know how it works."

In fact, this is also the fundamental problem of most of the technologies they currently use.

They only know how to use it; they don't understand the underlying principles at all.

This has resulted in their technological dynamism; they have spaceships, leap engines, and everything that only existed in science fiction stories in the 2K era.

However, it lacks truly meaningful beyond-visual-range weapons.

They don't have anything like intercontinental ballistic missiles, something even savages in 2K have.

As a result, many of their wars were no different from those of the Middle Ages.

There is no way that a place will be turned into ruins before the army arrives.

Because the divine planner did not give them that kind of thing.

"It's nothing, I was just asking. Go back to what you were doing."

Yu Le leaned back in his chair, his gaze falling on the gradually shrinking traces of migration outside the window.

He didn't press the commander further, because the commander's answer was clear enough.

They don't know the principles, they only know how to use it.

Indeed, how could a sacred object enshrined on an altar be deconstructed into a comprehensible technology?

When Yu Le actually asked Pandora, she replied:

"The principle of migration technology is not complicated, sir."

"Its core is to find the shortest path between two points in four-dimensional space, and then translate the vehicle along that path."

"If we compare three-dimensional space to the surface of a sheet of paper, then a leap is like folding the paper, making two points coincide, and then passing through that coincidence point."
