"For the peace of Norma!"

More senior officials stood up with different expressions, looked up at the national emblem of the Norma Republic, and made firm voices.

Chapter 1 Thirteen Divergence

Hyperion star, the energy center of the lunar base.

Kalenz strode forward along the narrow corridor, passed through several closed gates, and entered the nuclear fusion reactor.

The space is filled with extremely strong light and heat radiation, and fine lightning bolts meander along the wall, forming a huge current cage, completely isolating the fusion reactor from the outside world.

"It's such a powerful energy reflection... I thought I had the guidance of the evil king, and I could leave him behind, but I didn't expect the person who was left behind to be me." Putting up a layer of energy shield, Kalenz sighed, While striding closer to the fusion reactor ahead.

Not long after, he saw Ivan's figure.

At this moment, Ivan sat cross-legged in the void with his hands on his knees, and the artificial small star reflected behind him, looking like the incarnation of the sun god.Under the illumination of the small sun, the surface around him also radiated a film of light, like molten gold.The surrounding void is undulating like waves, and the folds are filled with fine chain-like currents, cracking a series of slightly blackened gaps, as if the mouth of an abyss opened in the void.

"..."

Kalenz floated up and flew to the edge of the reaction furnace, watching a flash of lightning close to him, rolling in the void like a python.

"So it's you... What do you want from me?"

As if sensing his arrival, Ivan opened his eyes slightly, blood red and dazzling light leaked from the eye slits.

"I didn't expect the Sun Golden Sutra to be so mysterious, it can absorb the energy radiation of the stars to quickly increase its strength... relying on this feature alone, this sacred scripture can rank among the top-tier in the various spiritual power training methods of the Federation."

Kalenz was awed by his energy fluctuations at this time, and did not answer the question immediately, but sighed subconsciously:

"Moreover, I can feel that your mental strength and fisting intention have also been affected, and you are in a wonderful transformation period. If you can continue to complete this transformation, you may be able to hit the inheritance level... Inheritance in your 20s level!"

The man could feel that the void around Ivan seemed to be disturbed by some kind of external force.With his body as the center, it twisted into a funnel shape, accumulating terrifying energy fluctuations, which were slowly and lowly turning—this meant that his mental power had initially touched the void level.

"Don't praise me so much, in fact I'm still far behind."

Yiwen showed a slight smile, his scarlet pupils blazed brightly, and stared at the man in front of him: "Compared to me, your progress is not small, it can almost be regarded as leaps and bounds. With the guidance of the evil king, you also have I have the opportunity to advance to the inheritance level, and I am looking forward to that day."

"Hahaha! You saw it!"

Being able to get Ivan's acknowledgment, Kalenz seemed very happy, and when he was in a good mood, he slapped his head and remembered the business:

"By the way, besides seeing you, I have another mission here. The cabinet wants me to ask you about something. It is said that there is a planet named Norma twelve light-years away, and there is also a human being on it. The country... do you know about this?"

"I know, I've heard of it." Ivan nodded calmly.

"The current situation is that under the threat of shadow creatures, the Normans seem to be very worried about their national security, so they made a request to the empire to form a military alliance." Kalenz didn't know that he was rejected with a hot face and a cold butt The thing, explained very casually.

"...What did they propose?" Ivan asked suspiciously.

"Of course! They seem very sincere, and the envoys are already on their way." Kalenz replied affirmatively.

"...Before they asked for an alliance, I had already made the same request to them, but it was rejected that time. It didn't take long before they suddenly changed their minds... I don't think it is very reliable." Ivan felt that this series of operations by the Normas was abnormal.

"It's normal. You have to know that the administrative system of the Norma people is extremely inefficient. It's not uncommon to repeatedly gamble and change orders on one thing. Sending envoys on their own initiative this time is enough to show their sincerity. You Don't hold grudges either!" Kalenz obviously didn't think about it that much, he looked at the problem from the perspective of human civilization, and felt that the alliance between the two countries would be of great benefit to each other, so he tried his best to match this matter.

"I'm not holding grudges!"

Ivan glared at him, and asked angrily, "How much do you know about the Norma people? Do you know what type of people they are?"

When Kalenz saw him asking this question, he immediately expressed his impression of the Norma people:

"I know! These guys are humble and cautious, and very polite, and they are very craftsman. Their personal qualities are also high, both innovative and adventurous, and they often reflect on themselves... The only shortcoming is that they like Apologize."

"How come the Norma people you fucking know are completely different from what I know!?"

As soon as Yiwen said this, his eyes suddenly changed, and he already understood their differences.

Karenz is a member of the Federation, and his impression of the Normas is completely the general impression of the Federation.And since I am a Menesian, the attitudes of the Normas towards the two civilizations are of course completely different. After all, one side is the overlord country and the father of the Federation, and the other side is a marginal civilization, a descendant who has just left the classical era.

However, pretending to be a grandson usually wears a mask, and only when acting as an uncle will the true nature be revealed.The true face of the Norma people is probably the attitude shown in front of him.

"..."

Recalling the girl who rejected him earlier, Yiwen's face darkened suddenly, and he remained silent without speaking.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Kalenz looked at him in surprise, seeming a little confused.

"Let's not talk about this matter for now... what's the opinion of the cabinet?"

"The cabinet is also inclined to form an alliance, but some cabinet ministers think that an alliance should be formed as soon as possible, while others feel that they must talk first."

"Let's talk first."

Yiwen is also inclined to talk first, to find out the details of the Norma people:

"You tell Ptolemy on my behalf, and tell him to be cautious in everything. The Normans suddenly found Heberon and asked us to form an alliance. It is not reasonable, and I suspect there is fraud in it."

"Understood!" Kalenz immediately nodded in agreement.

"Where's Ellome, what's her opinion?" Ivan asked again.

"Your wife is as cautious as you are, and she also tends to have bad intentions among Norma people." Kalenz shrugged his shoulders, looking very helpless.

In his opinion, there is nothing abnormal about this incident at all. The current enemy is just two similar countries holding together for warmth, so there is no need to be so suspicious.However, Ivan of the Menesian Empire had the final say. Since he had sworn allegiance to him, naturally he could say whatever he wanted.

"Well, so be it." Ivan gently closed his head, and then closed his eyes again.

Chapter 1 Uneasy

In the brightly lit reception hall, Ptolemy paced back and forth with a gloomy expression. Even the cool night wind could not calm his anxiety.He was wearing a tunic robe inlaid with gold threads, the golden power ring on his thumb reflected dazzling colors, and his face naturally revealed the coercion of power.

"Tricky!"

Ptolemy let out a sigh, clenched his hands into fists, and the knuckles of his fingers looked blue and white due to the force.After applying a thick layer of hair gel, the short purple-black hair that was combed back neatly also became eclipsed at this time.

After the calamity subsided, the Sun King gradually ignored political affairs due to his concentration on cultivation, and transferred the executive power to the cabinet.After the cabinet took charge of the government affairs of the six ministries and one hundred divisions, it actually served as the prime minister and became the highest power organ in the actual sense of the empire.

With the further centralization of power, the members of the cabinet have also shrunk, leaving only the most shrewd and capable seven.In order to facilitate them to exercise power more effectively, the Sun King granted them a new title - cabinet participation in politics.

Due to the blood of the royal family, Ptolemy's physical fitness is much higher than that of ordinary people, and some of them have energy to make up for lessons.In addition, I am also willing to read books, so I performed the best, so I ranked first among the cabinet ministers.While gradually taking over administrative affairs, his power is also increasing day by day, and his status has reached the level where one person is below one person and above ten thousand people.

In the eyes of others, although Ptolemy did not have the name of prime minister, he actually had the power of prime minister.

However, sometimes the status is really important. Ptolemy knew very well that he was not the prime minister after all, and he would be easily replaced by competitors once he showed his flaws.Today, His Majesty the Sun King's position has been very stable, and he does not need a group of officials to check and balance the royal family's cabinet ministers.

So you can't make mistakes!

Especially in matters of diplomatic relations, if I make a mistake in my judgment, I may lose His Majesty's trust.
