Chapter 2170 Extra Long Pregnancy
After listening to the introduction about the soul furnace, Soshiyang nodded thoughtfully.
"No wonder Huron suddenly obtained such a huge amount of demon engines. It turned out that he found a big financial backer. What is the name of this existence?"
"According to human language, it It should be called, Vashtor"
"Vashtor"
Soshyan said the name twice.
"I remember, I offended it severely this time, I guess I will have to deal with it in the future."
Then he nodded to Lorena and thanked her.
“Thank you also, Sir Lorena, for your answer.”
“Your Highness should know more when encountering such a powerful enemy. The Vaal priests of Jemlok Ark should know more. , His Highness may gain more by asking them then——"
As she said that, Lorena glanced at Veronica, who was putting the dessert on Soshyan's plate, and then made up her mind and changed the subject.
"Your Highness, what do you think of His Majesty's danger this time?"
Lorena's tone was very calm and even gentle, but the blame in it was obvious. , Veronica frowned immediately.
“Qing Lorena, you——”
Soshiyang pressed his wife’s shoulders and replied in a deep voice:
"It's my fault this time. It was my negligence that put Veronica in danger and almost caused an irreversible outcome. I will pay attention to it in the future. No matter who it is, I will not allow it to threaten Veronica." Card.”
Lorena then bowed deeply.
"Please forgive me for my rude words. Your Highness, I just hope that you can truly clarify your position. You have left a bloodline in the royal court and can no longer be as forward-thinking and hesitant as in the past. The human empire has begun to take notice. Royal Court, and the threat of Comoros is always there, you can no longer regard yourself as an outsider."
Soshiyan nodded.
“Qing Lorena, I have felt your loyalty, I will correct these mistakes, and thank you for taking care of Veronica during this time, ah, by the way, Ada’s childbirth How long does it usually take?”
"Back to Your Highness, the actual situation will be different for everyone. If calculated in human time, on average, it is probably about a hundred years."
"A hundred years!?"
< br>Soshiyang's eyes widened, and then Veronica leaned into his ear and whispered:
"Lorena has checked that the time from my conception to my pregnancy has passed. It’s been five or six years, and there have been cases in history where pregnancy took a full three hundred years.”
“Ah, okay, this really surprises me. It only takes so long to give birth, and that growth. Isn’t it measured in thousands of years?”
He looked back at Lorena.
“Qing Lorena, when you said it was a common situation before, you meant that Veronica is special.”
“Of course, after all, it is your and His Majesty’s child. In fact, We are currently unable to detect its condition, including its development cycle and growth process. I am afraid we need to go back to the royal court and go through the crystal dome to find out."
"That's it."< br>
Soshiyan also has some doubts in his heart. No matter what kind of offspring he and Veronica give birth to, it will most likely subvert all current biological theories.
"If nothing happens, I will go down first."
"Yes."
After Lorena left, Veronica placed the cut pies in Soshiyan In the plate, he suddenly smiled and said:
"Soshiyang, do you think girls or boys are better?"
"Uh"
Soshyan thought for a moment and put down the cup.
"It's all good."
As he said that, he seemed to have thought of something.
“Can Ada also control the gender of babies?” In an empire where cloning and biotechnology are highly abused, controlling the gender of newborns is already a very mature technology. If it were not for the intervention of the state religion, this type of technology would have The popularity is probably even more terrifying. Since the state religion declares that "gender is the choice of the emperor when he tosses a coin, how can mortals interfere?" Therefore, the technology to control the gender of newborns currently falls into a semi-illegal gray area.
Veronica shook her head.
“There is, but it is mainly used for non-natural conception methods. Just like the real children of Comoros, naturally conceived babies cannot be interfered with, or are not allowed to interfere.”
"It should be so. Such a law should be clearly defined. Technology that overrides human ethics really does more harm than good."
"You haven't answered the question just now!"
< br>“No girl.”
Veronica blinked.
“Why?”
“Probably to save some worry.”
“Well, you don’t think of the man sitting on the golden chair and his twenty A worried son, right?”
Suoshiyang picked up the pie with an awkward expression and took a bite. It was rich in milk, sweet and salty.
"By the way, why did you react so strongly when I mentioned Occam before? What happened? I've also heard rumors these days. It seems that Huron ran away?"
"Oh."< br>
Speaking of this, Soshyan sighed, took a sip of soup and said helplessly:
“It was Occam who let him go.”
“Huh? ”
Then he told Veronica exactly what happened at that time.
“It’s no wonder that it’s like this. The mentor said before that Alphas are a group of people who don’t know what they are called. Even prophets who have insight into people’s hearts can’t predict their next behavior.”
“It’s more than that. I don’t know, I really wanted to kill him at that time.”
“But his explanation seemed to make sense? The people in Garmo Zejie were quite capable, and the teams sent to chase them all reported that, Those people possess considerable subspace power and can drive demons. Even at the end of the road, they can cause a lot of damage. If they are allowed to take Huron's position, they will be a big trouble in the future. Anyway, Huron has been defeated by you. I was so beaten that I lost my mind. I will definitely not dare to cause more trouble in the future."
"One code equals one code. If he does this, no matter what happens, I will never be able to trust him as I did in the past. He knows too much. If he really rebels, the consequences will be disastrous. I am even considering whether to use some special means to erase his memory or..."
"Well, that is indeed the case, but husband, do you think that since he did it, he must have known that there would be such a result. Occam is an extremely smart man. He is willing to take such a big risk. Maybe he really has something hidden? Will you do it again in the future? After communicating with him carefully, I think this person may be complicated, but he is definitely not a villain."
"Let's talk about it later. Is Blackstone Fortress handled now?"
"Qing Doral has already taken care of it. They are on their way back to the Royal Court, but there is still a lot of follow-up work to be done, so after the matter here is over, you have to take a lot of time to deal with the matter in the Royal Court. "
"Well, as soon as possible, madam, how long do you think it will take for the subspace storm to dissipate?"
Veronica picked up the goblet, thought for a moment, and took a sip. drink, and then said:
"It's hard to generalize. The reasons for the formation of each storm are different, or there are no identical storms. But I can feel the power of this storm from a long distance away. It doesn't seem to be naturally formed. It's probably It was created through evil rituals, but it can create a storm of this scale. I can’t imagine it.”
“Did Huron really escape like this?”
Seeing that Soshyan still had an annoyed expression, Veronica filled his glass and said:
"It's useless to worry. It's better to use this time to do more things. Huron happens to be alive. The expedition is not over yet. While the authority is still with you, you need to make some preparations and arrangements for the future. Do you remember that the selection of immigrants began in the third year of the expedition, mainly doctors, priests and technical personnel from Zhongchao? Wait, screen the background. Now the third batch of immigrants has boarded the ship to go to the Bracato system, and you haven't paid much attention to this matter. This expedition has taken so long, and you need to speed up the recovery of your legion. You need more manpower and material resources, these things are your focus later."
When Veronica said this, Soshyan gradually came to his senses and nodded in agreement.
After dinner, Veronica did not "let go" of Soshyan, and directly pulled him to "routinely", but Soshyan was a little worried about this, and Veronica said that she had not yet truly become pregnant. , so more "efforts" are needed, so Soshiyang has no choice but to inform others through text messages that he needs to rest for a while——
