Terra's Magnetic Field

Her mentality at this moment was like recalling the past events that had been dulled by time. When Wan Wubian was dead, what did these events matter? When she was already the strongest person in Yan Country, what was the significance of whether she was a man or a woman?

Qiu Xin is now a bit like Wan Bao who pacified the world back then. Wan Bao was also very generous at that time, because there was no existence in this land that could truly break through her defense, and she had no descendants at that time...

Wan's generosity lasted for decades, but how long can Qiu Xin's generosity last now? Can she continue to be calm and be a kind elder who drinks tea and raises fish?

I don’t know, it all depends on “God’s will”…

The spaceship that Qiu Xin and Hui Jie were riding on was the "Battleship Island", the largest aerial fortress of Yan Country, which can be understood as a mobile city that can fly in the sky.

With the "Minovsky engine" customized from Raytheon Industries, this exaggerated aerial fortress can achieve "anti-gravity" through the special particles released by the engine. Relying on the propulsion nozzles installed in various parts of the fuselage, this "battleship island" can flexibly travel back and forth between the earth and the universe at an extremely fast speed.

(Based on the fact that Raytheon Industries can produce the Mie particle engine, Sister Nian has probably already mass-produced the big white geese, right?)

In addition to selling basic arms, Raytheon Industries also accepts military and industrial orders from various countries. Currently, nearly 70% of the high-end large-scale equipment in this land is designed and produced by Raytheon Industries.

In addition to participating in the construction of Terra's largest spaceship "Battleship Island", Thor Industries has also secretly assisted the Lianying Empire in expanding its colonies in space. Recently, they have transformed a city-sized asteroid into a habitable "space city" and named it "Axis".

The more the countries on this land compete with each other, the more money Thor Industries makes. Recently, Thor Industries has shown a trend of surpassing Rhine Life.

Of course, these are off-topic. Let’s take a look at Qiu Xin and Hui Jie sitting in the main hall of “Gunkanjima”.

The main hall of this "Battleship Island" is decorated in a combination of Chinese and Western styles. It is more like a VIP room of a luxury cruise ship than a battleship's command room. Qiu Xin and Hui Jie sat on the sofa in the center of the main hall and continued to talk about the topic just now. While they were talking, the floor directly below the main hall projected the sky outside. The scene that broke through the clouds was very magnificent. The two seemed to be sitting in the air, taking in the entire sky.

"Whether it's a man or a woman, how can the people on this land who know me, Wan Qiuxin, care about these things? Under the power of the magnetic field, all beings are equal. There is no distinction between men and women, only the difference between strong and weak. They just need to know that I, Wan Chou, am an unparalleled strong man worthy of their respect and fear. I continue to use this man's identity and image just because I think it's convenient. Maybe I'm used to it? It's okay to announce my true identity to the world when I feel it's necessary."

Wan Qiuxin spoke as she twisted her hair with her fingers, and her soft hair entangled around her fingertips like pasta.

Wan Qiuxin's disapproving words made Chen Huijie feel perfunctory, but she didn't dare to ask any further. As for what Wan Qiuxin said about when it was necessary, it was just an ambiguous statement.

"Our Wan family was founded by men, but it was mostly women who developed it." Chen Huijie said this, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.

"Most of the Wan family emperors in history were women. Men, a strong group, are weak in the Wan family. Over the past thousands of years, there have only been a few famous male emperors such as Zulong, Rendi, and Cangtian, while there are countless famous female emperors. Emperor Guangwu, who revived the Wan family, was also a woman. It can be said that the current Wan family was founded by a woman..."

"So what?" Qiu Xin interrupted her adopted daughter, "So what does this prove?"

Chen Huijie replied: "It proves that the Wan family is a family where women are strong and men are weak. Women should have a say in this family. I think the Wan family should be led by women in the future."

(In fact, it is mainly women who are more likely to have Wanbao characteristics)

"Oh?" Qiu Xin responded, and then asked, "Hui Jie, did you learn about feminism when you went to Victoria? Do you really think that strength and weakness are related to gender?"

Chen Huijie: "What if I say yes?"

Wan Qiuxin sighed and said, "Then I have to be disappointed in you. You have always performed well, but this incident makes me feel that you are shallow. Gender cannot be used as a standard to measure strength and weakness. You can't think that a person should be strong or weak just because he is a man. Instead, you should look at his character and will. These are the standards for measuring a person."

Chen Huijie: “Is that really the case?”

Chen Huijie also rarely showed a questioning attitude towards Wan Qiuxin. Over the years, she has always respected this stepmother very much, even more than her biological mother. In her opinion, that weak and powerful woman was not worthy of giving birth to her!

Chen Huijie's mother had always been too partial to her elder sister Tallulah. If she had shared some of her love for Tallulah with her younger daughter, Chen Huijie might not have developed her current strong and stubborn personality. But if is just if, how can there be so many ifs in this world? Everything that happens by chance is inevitable after it happens.

"Huijie, your mother is my little cousin," Qiu Xin read Chen Huijie's thoughts and told her about her mother's past experiences. "We met several times when she was a child living in the palace. At that time, Wei Yanwu was her personal servant."

“魏

Yanwu was the eldest son of the head of her branch family. According to the rules of her family, the branch family assisted the main family, but by her generation, the family fell into decline, and after leaving the independent royal family, they had to return to the palace to live on relief. Later, when your mother came of age, Wei Yanwu persuaded her to leave the palace and marry Prince Victoria, your sister's father Edward. But Edward, a poor genocide, was not a prince. Your mother was deceived by Edward's sweet words and handsome appearance and married him, and later she had your sister Tallulah. "

"Originally I wouldn't have asked about this kind of thing, but Wei Yanwu was stupid enough to use the royal bloodline as a threat. He probably thought Tallulah was qualified to inherit the throne, but this was a very naive idea. The royal family was in turmoil over this position, so how could it be the turn of an outsider like Tallulah? After all, a slave is a slave..."

Wan Qiuxin felt more and more regretful as she spoke. She felt sorry for her little cousin who had been deceived her whole life, and she also felt sorry for Tallulah, who had become a political victim.

"In the end, Edward was executed for being too flamboyant, and Talullah became a posthumous child. Later, in order to gain a place in Longmen, Wei Yanwu let your mother remarry the local noble Chen family, and that's how you were born. It can be said that she was also recognized as a poor person who was taken advantage of, and her preference for Talullah was only due to a tragic marriage."

After hearing this, Chen Huijie smacked his lips and said in an extremely tough tone:

"What about me? Am I not pitiful and miserable? Why do people always favor things that are not worthy of sympathy? She was deceived only because she was incompetent and stupid! What is there to sympathize with?!"

"Huijie, your experience is very tragic, but your mother also has her own difficulties..." Qiu Xin's words seemed pale and powerless at this time. She knew that this was a mistake of "advising others to be kind without experiencing their suffering."

"Stepmother, you are naturally generous now that you own the whole country, because there is nothing in the entire Yan Kingdom that can threaten you. You can be a peacemaker and persuade me, an ignorant junior. But do you have the qualifications? How generous were you when you were young compared to me now? If you could be as generous as you say, you wouldn't have killed your brother and father for the throne!"

"pia!!"

A very crisp slapping sound spread throughout the main hall. After Chen Huijie said the words "killing brother and father", Wan Qiuxin finally couldn't help but slapped her adopted daughter. It seems that this is the "bottom line" that can make her break down, and it is also the "inner demon" that has been tormenting her all these years.

"Ah?!" Qiu Xin didn't react until after the slap. She almost did it out of control.

But it was too late to regret now. When Qiu Xin saw Chen Huijie's face full of anger and resentment, she knew that everything was irreversible.

"Qiu Xin, you disappoint me this time too," Chen Huijie said coldly. She called her stepmother's real name without any respect.

Chen Huijie deliberately said loudly:

"In the past, I respected you because you were a domineering emperor, a ruthless and powerful perfect warrior. Your methods and determination made me feel that I should become such a person. But now I realize that you are just a weak woman, a woman who doesn't know good from bad at the critical moment... a nagging woman!"

"Ah?!" Wan Qiuxin didn't expect her adopted daughter to say such hurtful words. She didn't know what to do for a moment. She was a little angry, but if she continued to abuse Chen Huijie, it would only make her look incompetent.

Perhaps this is what it feels like to be both a master and a mother? Even an emperor would feel powerless in the face of his disciples and daughter.

"Oh, are you speechless?" Chen Huijie sneered. She was so ruthless and cruel now.

"I won't care about what happened here today and I won't tell anyone. It's just that this time it really hurt the relationship between us. You take care of yourself. I won't accompany you anymore!" Chen Huijie stood up from the sofa and jumped towards the glass curtain outside the main hall. She used the power of the magnetic field to pass through the aviation glass made of special material. Her back as she walked away on the clouds made Qiu Xin dazed.

She came in style and left with momentum. On the surface, Chen Huijie was the absolute winner of this quarrel between mother and daughter.

But... as she moved away from Gunkanjima, the smug smile on her face began to stiffen. After closing off her feelings, an uncontrollable sadness surged out of her heart. Soon, this strong emotion spread throughout her body, making her "painful" and "sad"...

At this moment, Chen Huijie's true mentality was revealed, and the smile on her face turned into half crying and half angry. Fear, fear and loss appeared one by one on this face. At this moment, Chen Huijie was not leaving at all, she was just escaping from the place that made her sad.

"Wuwu..." Accompanied by two sobs, tears flowed out uncontrollably, and then condensed into ice crystals and scattered in the sky.

It doesn't matter, because when Chen Huijie completely blocked her own senses, perhaps even Qiu Xin, who was gradually leaving, would not be able to detect her emotions. At this moment, the only one who knew who she was and how she felt was herself.

But this was humiliating enough for the strong-willed Chen Bao.

That's enough...

“Wuwu… Adao…”

At this moment of humiliation and betrayal, Chen Huijie thought of the deceased Adao.

Maybe the only person in the world who would not betray her feelings was this once hateful guy, but now he was dead. Who else could accompany her to continue fooling around in this world? Who could tolerate her willfulness?

There will never be another…………

Chen Huijie felt even more troubled when she thought of this.

However, she was so sad that she flew straight to the land north of Yan State.

With the power of the "Seventy-three Heavens", she can reach the uninhabited ice field in a short time, the place where she met Gui Adao and where Gui Adao's tombstone is located.

After Gui Adao died, his grandmother Lin built a ten-meter-high statue of him in his hometown in the northern border. Standing in this snowy land, Gui Adao looked like a guardian god.

The giant statue of Adao holds a huge sculpture of the Fire Scale Sword in both hands. The material of the sword has been strengthened by the Scale Sword's own power and can withstand all kinds of natural disasters without leaving any traces.

In front of the giant statue are Adao's tomb and stele. Adao's belongings are buried in the tomb, and only a few brief sentences of his life are engraved on the stele, because there is really nothing to say about Adao's life, and no one knows the story of how he once fought for this land.

This is the tomb of the last Fire Scale, burying the entire northern territory.

But at this time, a man came to visit, an old enemy who had been at war with him forever.

Ah Dao is the kind of person whose unique charm is only discovered after his death. When he was alive, he was often unknown. This is because he was low-key and humble enough. He always managed everything in an orderly manner without showing off, making people unable to detect his existence. So when he is gone, the chaos makes those who once despised and looked down on him realize his "greatness"

Just like Chen Huijie at this moment, she finally admitted that Adao was a great and respectable opponent. To her, praising a dead person was irrelevant. A dead opponent was a good opponent.

Chen Huijie stood in front of Adao's tombstone and said:

"What a nice grave, Adao. Not everyone can enjoy such a grand funeral as yours. I admit that you have always been a little stronger than me, but in the end I won because I survived and you died! Isn't the world that simple? The living are kings and the dead are buried in the earth. When I dominate this land in the future, who will remember you? In the end, even your Simuitai will no longer exist, and everything you have protected in the past will become meaningless. I will eventually take away everything you cherish, and this time, my friend, you can no longer stop me! Never again!"

Chen Huijie raised a finger and shook it. She became more and more arrogant as she spoke, as if she wanted to irritate the tomb owner.

"Perhaps I will erect a monument to you after I ascend the throne, letting the foolish people of this land know about your heroic deeds. Or maybe I will devalue you and say that you are just a stepping stone on my road to success. Who knows?"

The cold wind kept blowing past Chen Huijie. No one responded to her mumbling. She just felt that she was stupid for doing this.

Finally, Chen Huijie took off the small four-leaf red flower on her head. She had picked this flower a long time ago when she was out. It was said to bring good luck, but she no longer needed it...

Chen Huijie placed the flower on Adao's grave, injecting vitality and the remaining "tenderness" into it, so that the flower could continue to bloom in this place. This was the only thing she could do now.

The tenderness of a mean, treacherous and cruel person is the most precious thing in the world, which is often much more precious than the first kiss and the first night. Maybe, Chen Huijie gave her rare love and tenderness to the dead person to commemorate her dead "love"

"Maybe I was wrong, but now I can't turn back. I don't want to be a loser... Ah Dao, you know I have no choice. I always make the best choice under limited circumstances. Who would be willing to be a villain if they can be great? Not everyone has your patience and determination..."

Chen Huijie stood on the snow for a long time. She seemed to be communicating with Adao, but in fact she was just trying to convince herself.

Let’s look at Hati and Lappland from the Lianying Empire. What are they doing now?

He looks really happy while eating a fast food fried chicken called "happy chicken".

That’s all for today.

Chapter 474: Song of the Golden Sword Hero

The underground research institute of Rhine Life Headquarters is the most confidential place in the whole of Columbia. In the past, when Wan was in power, there was a "tradition" of setting up special scientific research bases here. At that time, the underground research institute was mainly used to provide her with spare organs for cloning. At the same time, this place was also the birthplace of "technological offspring" such as Bella and Goletia. Hemer was once a researcher here.

And now, when Bella controls everything in Rhine Life and even Columbia, she still builds a highly confidential place underground in the Rhine Life headquarters just like she did at that time. So what will she place there?

Among the rows of culture tanks, only one was in operation, and Bella's smooth body was immersed in it, bathing in the warm liquid like amniotic fluid. This place was indeed the "womb" that had nurtured her, and she was born in this place.

Bella's body is connected to several places with tubes that deliver nutrient solution, which can speed up her body's development and the healing of her injuries, allowing her to grow at a much faster rate than the original growth cycle.

Originally, according to the blood demon's growth rate, Bella should be only fifteen or sixteen years old at this age, but the current situation obviously does not give her much time to grow up. In order to meet the upcoming challenges, Bella had to urge herself to grow up as soon as possible and face the enemy with a mature attitude.

The injuries on her body were caused by what happened in Iberia more than half a month ago. After she defeated Goletia, she was attacked from behind by a giant shark that fell from the sky. The incident happened so suddenly that she had no time to react.

If Mainna hadn't come to her aid, she would have probably ended up like Gloria.

Bella has been sleeping in the culture tank for more than half a month. When her body recovers to a certain level, the machine will automatically start the "wake-up procedure" and wake her up from her long dream with a weak electric current.

The indicator light on the top of the culture tank flashed three times in succession and then issued a warning sound. Then the nutrient solution pipeline stopped delivering nutrients, and the light green liquid in the tank slowly drained out. Then it was dried, as roughly as if it were a piece of tattered clothing...

This thing is not designed to be user-friendly, and many of the processes are very rough, and it is obvious that it has not been debugged and polished too much. After Meier, who is proficient in mechanical manufacturing and program programming, ran away, most of Rhine Life's products have such problems. This is the only way until a scientific and technological talent who can perfectly replace Meier is found.

Bella woke up from a long dream. For the first time, she understood what it felt like for the legendary blood demon to sleep in a coffin. A feeling of emptiness, depression, and exhaustion filled her body, causing her to subconsciously push open the glass cover in front of her. She staggered out of the culture tank, and the stiff thing was like a walking corpse, with a bitter taste in her mouth.

Bella's originally moist skin looked wrinkled after soaking for a long time, and her soft hair became like weeds in the wilderness after drying. At first glance, she looked like she had aged by dozens of years.

"Huh!!...Huh!" Bella panted roughly. She speeded up her heartbeat in this way, trying to squeeze more vitality out of her heart to recover.

After she regained consciousness, she felt a strong sense of frustration. She couldn't help but think of the previous attack by the giant shark. Although she didn't know who the salty shark woman was, she knew that she was definitely not a good person. If Goletia fell into her hands, she might not have a good life.

Will Bella then regroup and save her sister? Is she really that generous? Will she let bygones be bygones after Gloria tried to harm her?

Bella won't take any action for the time being, because she knows that she can't confront anyone head-on now.

"Is it finally time for our bloodline to wake up? Do you have any new feelings after waking up from a long dream?" A deep male voice came from the ceiling, and the sound echoed everywhere.

Then there was the sound of flapping wings, and a golden figure flew over and circled around Bella.

It turned out to be a zanvat bat. This creature, which carried part of the consciousness of the Blood Demon Lord, was hanging upside down on the ceiling while Bella was sleeping, always watching over its master.

"I feel very humiliated and unwilling, and this feeling will eventually take revenge," Bella said as she took a white coat from the shelf in front of the culture tank and put it on.

"Okay, I'll lend you my strength when you make up your mind," Zanvat Bat sank into the shadow behind Bella, and this place, which was originally somewhat popular, suddenly became dead silent again.

But Bella could still feel someone near her, so she walked towards the exit. The door automatically opened after sensing her vital signs, allowing her to see the blond man sitting outside.

"What? So you're here..." Bella said to Maina who was sitting on a small plastic stool. She had thought this guy was a little weird before, so she asked, "Why don't you just come in? You're supposed to protect me anyway."

"It is in accordance with knightly etiquette to stand guard outside the door when the lord goes to bed. Besides, I have no interest in your body," Mainna answered respectfully but coldly. While he was speaking, he only stared at the story picture book in his hand and did not even look at Bella, making Bella feel despised.

This man from Casimir is the current head of the Linguang family. He is also Bella's personal outdoor and Rhine Life Defense Department's director. He is to Bella like Xiao Er is to Wan Bao.

"Although your words make me unhappy, I still want to thank you for saving my life before." Bella said generously.

"This is what a knight should do. As long as we are still in an employment relationship, I will ensure your safety."

Mainna was still staring at the picture book in his hand. It was a small book the size of a palm. Judging from the yellowed paper, it must be quite old, but overall it was in good condition.

This made Bella curious, so she went over and asked:

"What is this? A fairy tale book?"

Maenna answered him calmly:

"It's a knight novel that was widely circulated in Casimir's past. It tells the story of a Pegasus knight who stepped forward when the earth was in danger, went to the snowy mountains to find the golden sword and became a brave savior."

"Tsk, I didn't expect you to still like watching this kind of thing at your age..." Bella hissed, and she asked again, "What's the ending of the story?"

Bella only likes to see the ending of a story, she doesn't care about the process. She is a resultist, and such people are often less interesting.

"In the end, the hero returns to his hometown and starts a family with his beloved. The family lives happily forever..." Maenna closed the picture book with one hand, and Bella saw the embroidered words "Song of the Golden Sword Hero" on the cover.

"But such an idealized ending only appears in knight novels. The people of Casimir believe that the knights will have a good ending in the end. This is also what the government wants them to believe," Mainna said at the end, which was indeed his personality.

"It's quite ironic that this statement comes from the Lord Knight," Bella commented.

"Whatever you say," Manna followed Bella out of the underground area. He was reluctant to play the role of knight princess with the little girl, but he had to do it for the family's livelihood.
