This is the first time that Shen Lang has touched Queen Medusa.

The whole body is cold, even like ice.

"Why is this?" Shen Lang asked.

Queen Medusa said: "Because this body is too weak."

Is this body still weak? It was almost the strongest Shen Lang had ever seen.

"Of course, your Qiu Yao'er is already very strong." Queen Medusa said: "But human beings are different from us in all aspects. We can live for a long time, and you humans are only a hundred years at most. We exchange energy with nature, the sun, and the whole world all the time. As long as we live awake, even if every minute and every second consumes a huge amount of energy.”

Shen Lang understood.

This is probably like a car. The entire engine system of the Bugatti Veyron has been modified and installed on a car in the early 20th century, so that even if it can be driven, it can drive very fast, and can reach two or three hundred kilometers per hour. .

But every time you drive for a maximum of half an hour, you have to stop, and then carry out major maintenance, otherwise the whole car will be scrapped.

Therefore, most of the time this car can only be parked in the garage. If it is driven too many times, the car will fall apart.

Qiu Yao'er's body was already strong, but it wasn't enough for Queen Medusa.

So in the past few years, she has been sleeping for most of the time, otherwise even if she is awake and still, she will consume a lot of energy and overdraw the vitality of this body.

Yaoyao's little baby is also like this, and because she is too small, her body is even more fragile.

"In fact, if I want to live, I have to go into a complete long sleep, so that the energy consumption of my body can be reduced to the extreme," Queen Medusa said: "But I always need to wake up."

Yes, she has to wake up every time because there are too many people who need her protection.

Shen Lang said: "Actually, these people have nothing to do with you. It is Qiu Yao'er's responsibility to protect them."

Queen Medusa said, "But now Qiu Yao'er and I are one, that's my responsibility."

Qiu Yao'er wanted to be a thorough knight, and wanted to walk in all directions, unrestrained and unrestrained.

But people can't have absolute freedom. When she was in Raging Tide City, she was swayed by Qiu Tianwei's parenting grace, and now she is swayed by the people she protects.

She is so loving.

Queen Medusa smiled and said, "Your Excellency Shen Lang, before you came to Queen City, did you want to see Qiu Yao'er or Medusa?"

Shen Lang was silent for a long time and said, "Chou Yao'er."

It was his truth, that although Queen Medusa was more beautiful and more powerful, she seemed too perfect, too distant, too unreal.

And Qiu Yao'er is full of strong personality, she is really a special and charming woman, even Shen Lang can't forget it for the past few years.

Queen Medusa said with a smile: "Don't worry, before I die, I will return Qiu Yao'er to you."

Shen Lang said: "Then she is now?"

Queen Medusa said: "She can see, hear, and feel. But she has lost control of her body, not because I am too domineering, but simply because of the power of the soul, we are too powerful."

Shen Lang said: "So at least the person I'm talking to now is the complete Queen Medusa."

Queen Medusa said: "Yes! When I'm about to die, I'll be a complete hater."

Shen Lang said: "Did you take away Qiu Yao'er?"

Medusa shook her head and said, "No, on the contrary, it was Qiu Yao'er who forcibly broke into my world and forcibly woke me up."

This sounds fantastic and incomprehensible. But Shen Lang thought of himself, his soul is from the earth, but his body is the Shen Lang of this world.

Medusa said: "Do you mind if I lie down and talk to you? This way I consume the least energy. Even standing now consumes too much vitality."

Shen Lang helped Queen Medusa to lie down, and the curves of her delicate body were like undulating mountains and rivers.

"However, as you can see, I can't die. In order to protect Yaoyao, in order to protect many innocent people, I can't die, so most of the time I'm sleeping." Queen Medusa said: "Now finally You are waiting."

Shen Lang said: "With all due respect, this new world belongs to the Xilun Dynasty. Whether you or I are outsiders. So we can't protect the city-states of the Witch Empire, and we can't even protect Duke Hall. My purpose is to return to the Great Empire. The Yan Empire takes revenge, and I am not interested in everything in the Western world."

Queen Medusa said: "I know that when I die, I will not be able to protect the Queen City, nor the city-states of the Witch Empire, nor the countless freed slaves. The east belongs to the east, and the west belongs to the west."

This is true, and Duke Debors has always said so.

Queen Medusa said: "You are the emperor of the East, and I am even more of an outsider. Neither of us can be the emperor of the New World, but there is one person who can."

Shen Lang said: "Who?"

Queen Medusa said: "How do you feel about the builder of this Queen City?"

Shen Lang said: "The queen of the Second Empire of Xi Lun? She is a genius, an absolute artistic genius, but she has been dead for hundreds of years."

Queen Medusa said: "Yes, but she also has a great-great-granddaughter, and she is eligible to inherit the throne of the Xiron Dynasty."

Shen Lang said: "So what? She has nothing to do with us. I have no interest in the battle for the throne of the Xilun Dynasty."

Queen Medusa said, "What if she is your half-sister?"

"Ah... uh..."

Shen Lang was instantly speechless.

Queen Medusa said: "I'm just guessing, you should have seen some of the history of the Xiron Dynasty. After Queen Helen was enthroned, she was opposed by the northern nobles, so she moved the capital to the south and built the Queen City, that is, from there At that time, the south of the Xi Lun Dynasty was vigorously developed. In order to develop the southern part of the empire, Queen Helen announced a large-scale abolition order, liberated countless slaves in the south, and even promoted many aborigines of the Vida tribe to become Westerners. officials of the Lun Empire."

Shen Lang really doesn't know this at all, and he hasn't seen it in all the history books of the Xilun Dynasty. But this is also normal. Although Queen Helen was recognized by everyone, no one rebelled when she was on the throne, but most of the nobles of the Xi Lun Dynasty secretly opposed her policy.

Therefore, the demise of the Second Empire of Xiron was the time when the seeds were planted in the time of Queen Helen.

She did everything right, but it split the entire empire north and south.

"After the death of Queen Helen of the Second Empire of Xilon, his son inherited the throne and returned to the capital of Xilon. Queen Helen's daughter stayed in the Queen City and became the prince of the empire."

Shen Lang said: "That is to say, the daughter and granddaughter of Queen Helen, who has really ruled Queen City in all dynasties?"

Queen Medusa said: "Yes, the Hall family has been the loyal steward of Queen Helen for generations."

Shen Lang said: "You continue to speak."

Queen Medusa said: "Forty years ago, the ruler of Queen City was Queen Helen's great-granddaughter, Princess Shelley. She was the most talented woman in the entire Cylon dynasty at that time, and was called the Pearl of Cylon. Possessing unparalleled wisdom, she did not get married until she was in her thirties, which made countless nobles in the Xiron Dynasty feel sad. But suddenly she disappeared for a while, and when she reappeared, she had already given birth to a daughter , named Helen, after his great-grandmother, Queen Helen."

Shen Lang said: "You mean that this Princess Helen was born by His Majesty Jiang Li and Princess Shelley?"

Queen Medusa said: "The palace in Queen City is an absolutely feminine palace, especially the palace tomb, even the husband of the princess cannot enter. But there is a lot of evidence of His Majesty Jiang Li's existence inside, so there is reason to doubt, His Majesty Jiang Li has stayed here for a long time. And after this Princess Helen was born, she looks like a mixed race with oriental features."

Shen Lang said: "She has oriental blood. It must be impossible to become the empress of the Third Empire of Xi Lun, right?"

Queen Medusa said: "The entire South will support him, especially the aborigines of the Vader tribe. The Cylon Dynasty is now divided, and what is needed is an empress who can accommodate all races, and her mixed blood is on the contrary. It can become a symbol, the Xi Lun Dynasty opened its mind, a symbol of the coexistence of all ethnic groups."

Shen Lang said: "What about this Princess Helen?"

Queen Medusa said: "She is a crazy adventurer. She left Queen City when she was only sixteen years old, and has not come back until now. It has been seventeen years."

Shen Lang said: "If she is still alive, she is thirty-three years old this year?"

Queen Medusa said: "If she appears, the entire south of the Cylon Dynasty will have a real loyal object. Once she can become the queen of the Third Empire of Cylon, she will be your absolute ally."

………………

"Okay, let's not talk about this Princess Helen of the Xi Lun Dynasty for the time being." Shen Lang said: "Your Majesty, how long do you have?"

Queen Medusa said: "If you stay in the underground tomb of the palace and spend most of your time sleeping, there will be another year."

a year?

"Please rest assured, when I'm about to die, I won't drag Qiu Yao'er to die with me, I'll return her to you."

Shen Lang said: "In other words, within this year, you can't leave the Queen City, or even half a step away from the palace tomb?"

Queen Medusa said: "Yes, you can't leave either."

Shen Lang said: "After that year, what about you?"

Queen Medusa said: "Before I die, not only will I return Qiu Yao'er to you, but I will also give everything I have left to Yao Yao, and at the cost of my life, I may be able to prolong her life for a few years. It's up to you to come down, my mother has done her best, and then the responsibility of protecting Yaoyao will be handed over to your father."

Then she looked at Shen Lang and said, "Actually, if I commit suicide now, I can return Qiu Yao'er to you."

Shen Lang shook his head.

Queen Medusa cannot die now. Once she dies, the Queen City will fall, and there will be no one to protect her.

Because now as a father, Shen Lang is not strong enough.

Queen Medusa said: "Your Excellency Shen Lang, so your time is very tight, within a year you will become stronger, you must have the ability to protect you, and you must have the ability to protect everyone. The eyes of the Third Empire of Lun are all on me, all on the Queen City. As long as I am alive, this city will not fall. This is the golden time for your development. Your greatest enemy, Duke Debos, is also contained by me. Here, there is no time to pay attention to your existence."

Shen Lang said: "How many people can I take away at most?"

Queen Medusa said: "In the battle with Duke Russell, our army suffered heavy casualties. I was sleeping most of the time, so a certain number of troops are needed to defend the Queen City, so you can take up to 2,000 people."

"Enough, enough." Shen Lang said: "I will take five hundred Roland Knights, one thousand Black Pearl Pirates, and five hundred Eastern Knights."

The queen said: "Okay."

Shen Lang said: "Your Majesty, I still need a group of people full of wisdom."

Queen Medusa said: "I captured hundreds of scholars and apprentices from Tianya Haige, they are very smart."

Shen Lang said: "Tianya Haige is my enemy, are they loyal enough?"

Queen Medusa said: "Not enough, especially the older bachelors, the imprint of Tianya Haige on them is too deep, but some young apprentices should be able to transform, they may not be so wise, and they do not have so much knowledge. , but at least not completely brainwashed."

In fact, for Shen Lang, a group of wise men is the most important.

Because next, Shen Lang wants to invent new things on a large scale, and if he wants to cultivate talents from scratch, he doesn't know the year of the monkey. Of course, it is also possible to directly capture large-scale alchemists, but their loyalty is problematic.

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

………………

Shen Lang found Zhang Chunhua.

"Chunhua, I'm leaving." Shen Lang said.

Zhang Chunhua was startled and said, "So fast?"

Shen Lang said: "The situation is more urgent than I thought."

Then he asked, "Will you come with me?"

Zhang Chunhua said: "Go with you? Leave Her Majesty the Queen?"

Shen Lang said: "Yes."

Zhang Chunhua said, "What am I going to do with you? Sleep with you?"

Shen Lang said: "Be my think tank, be my female general manager."

Zhang Chunhua was hesitant.

Shen Lang did not say that the queen had only one year to live, nor did she say that the queen had pinned her hopes on him, Shen Lang.

"Shen Lang, will you kill the Great Yan Empire?" Zhang Chunhua asked.

Shen Lang said: "Yes."

"Then I'll follow you." Zhang Chunhua said, "But I said in advance, I'm not just a plaything that accompanies you to bed."

Shen Lang said: "Just wait until you are so tired that you vomit blood."

Zhang Chunhua said, "Do you vomit up and down together?"

Uh?

Shen Lang said: "Miss Zhang Chunhua, you are the daughter of Duke Chong, and you are the daughter of my scholar-official in the Eastern Dynasty. In overseas countries, your words and deeds represent the face of the nation and the country, so please pay attention to your speech and image. Is it? The key person standing in front of you may be one of the three great emperors in the world, you have to be decent. Besides, your words are not precise enough, they should be spit up and down."

Zhang Chunhua said: "I have been running around a lot in the past few years. I hope I still have blood to splash."

No, I can't stand it anymore, this talented girl is too dirty.

"Zhang Chunhua, are these Tianya Haige bachelors captured with you trustworthy?" Shen Lang asked.

"It's not worth it." Zhang Chunhua said: "Even if they go to the ends of the earth, they are still loyal to Tianya Haige in their minds."

Shen Lang said: "I need to use some smart people. Next, we will study all kinds of new weapons, killer weapons. I need an absolutely trustworthy team. Can you choose a few for me?"

Zhang Chunhua said: "There is no one who is absolutely trustworthy, unless the value you give them exceeds the honor given to them by Tianya Haige. Only young apprentices have room for transformation. I can find thirty or forty people for such people. "

At that time, Queen Medusa captured hundreds of people, but Shen Lang was able to take away only so many people.

The key point is that they have been running around for many years, and they are tens of thousands of miles away from the Eastern World. The brainwashing skills of Tianya Haige are really powerful.

………………

Yao Yao baby is very happy.

Because her parents were by her side at this time, she was mostly asleep since she was a child, and even when she woke up, her mother was not around.

Shen Lang hugged her soft little body and told her fairy tales.

Yaoyao listened very seriously, as if to engrave every word in his head.

After telling the story, Yaoyao was a little tired.

She is going to sleep, otherwise she will hurt her body, she is too fragile.

Shen Lang hugged her tightly, she was really father's Snow White.

"This is a toy that Dad made for you. Of course, it's too simple for our little one." Shen Lang said softly.

Then, he put a toy in Yaoyao's hand.

This is a third-order Rubik's Cube, made overnight by Shen Lang, a very special Rubik's Cube.

There are six faces in total, the first face is father Shen Lang, the second face is mother Medusa, the third face is Yaoyao baby, the fourth face is Shen Mi baby, and the fifth face is Shen Ye baby , the sixth face is the baby Shen Li.

Shen Lang drew very carefully, and the portraits on every face were vivid.

After the Rubik's Cube is completely disrupted, the faces of these people are all messed up, and they need to be reassembled to restore their integrity.

"Baby, try it out." Shen Lang said.

Yao Yao took over the Rubik's Cube and glanced at the completely disrupted Rubik's Cube.

Then, she started twisting the Rubik's Cube.

After only half a minute, the Rubik's Cube was complete, and all six sides were assembled.

Shen Lang was once again amazed, is this my daughter? Baby, you're smarter than Dad.

She didn't tell her any formulas or formulas, and the little girl would just take a look.

This is simply beyond the description of genius.

"Our baby is really smart, the smartest and most beautiful little princess in the world." Shen Lang gave a thumbs up and said, "I don't know how much my younger siblings will admire you when they see Yaoyao in the future."

The little baby Yaoyao was a little proud, but also a little shy, hiding in his father's arms, and the light of incomparable happiness flowed in his big eyes, as sweet as honey.

"Baby, daddy will come pick you up within a year, okay?" Shen Lang said softly: "By that time, Yaoyao and daddy will not be separated, okay?"

Yaoyao baby stared at Shen Lang with wide eyes. She didn't cry, but nodded seriously.

Her body is fragile, but her will is strong.

Shen Lang took her into his arms again, holding back the tears.

"Baby, what daddy promised you must be done. Within a year, daddy will crawl in front of you even if he crawls."

"I, Shen Lang, should have failed many people, but I will never fail my baby Yaoyao."

Shen Lang swore over and over again in his heart, and then said softly, "Okay, baby, go to sleep."

Yaoyao obediently closed her eyes, and soon fell asleep sweetly, her little hands still holding the Rubik's Cube and reluctant to let go.

Shen Lang hugged her until midnight, and finally put her on the bed reluctantly.

"Baby, Daddy is gone, but will be back soon to pick up the baby."

Out of the unitary clean room.

"Any strong person will be melted at some point." Queen Medusa said: "So human beings are really fragile."

Shen Lang said: "This is human taste."

Queen Medusa said: "I have become vulnerable too."

Then, she said to Shen Lang: "Goodbye then, future emperor. When you come back again, I will return Qiu Yao'er to you."

After saying that, Queen Medusa turned and left, and walked into the underground tomb of the palace.

Shen Lang felt his heart collapse a little bit again.

Is this the last time I see Queen Medusa's back? Beauty is too seductive to be true.

Can only one of Qiu Yao'er and Queen Medusa exist in this world?

………………

An hour later!

Shen Lang left the Queen City, and took advantage of the darkness of the night with 2,000 people, heading towards the sea to the east.

Two full days later, 2,000 people came to the beach.

This sea area is very remote and full of reefs, so the fleets of the Third Reich of Siron hardly come to patrol here.

After waiting three hours.

Four pirate ships appeared in this dangerous sea.

The boat is an absolute master, able to avoid all the reefs.

Shen Lang's 2,000 people boarded the four pirate ships silently, and then carefully sailed away from this sea area, going three hundred miles east, then south, and finally west toward Saltpeter Island. And go.

From the beginning to the end, Shen Lang did not speak, and did not have any rhetoric.

He left the Queen City so silently, boarded four ships, and sailed to an unknown distance.

Maybe not far away.

For Shen Lang, the place he was going was closer to the Great Yan Empire.

Shen Lang stood on the deck and looked at the vast sea.

A man stood beside him, silently not opening his mouth.

black Pearl? The leader of the pirate group? She actually followed Shen Lang?

"I am a member of the Skeleton Party Pirates. When they left, I was very young." Black Pearl said: "Our Skeleton Party pirates once ran rampant in the whole world, and anyone dormant under our blade, no matter what. Whether it's the duke or the prince begging for our asylum."

"I don't think about finding them, finding my parents, finding my Skull Party. Her Majesty promised me that even if she couldn't find the Skull Party for me, she would have someone help me. Then you showed up, you Can you find the Skull Party?"

Black Pearl looked at Shen Lang and asked.

Shen Lang said: "As long as they are still alive, I can find them."

Black Pearl said: "Then I will serve you."

………………

"We are the people who were abandoned by the kingdom of the Amazon Queen. We are a shame. We fought desperately to tell the Amazon Queen that a person's strength is not only in her body, but also in her will."

Five hundred Roland Knights followed Shen Lang to develop a new city, and the leader was called Meng Luolan.

Meng is the first name, and Roland is the last name. She is also a powerful female display, second only to Violet.

"Queen Medusa saved our whole family, so we will obey any orders she gives." Meng Luolan said: "No matter where you ask us to go or who we go to fight, we will not back down, we have only one request from you. ."

Shen Lang said: "Please speak."

Meng Luolan said: "If we die, please sprinkle our ashes on the waters of the Amazon Queen's country. We can't return to our own country in life, and we can't enter in death, but at least we can be closer to our ancestors."

Shen Lang looked at the tall woman and nodded seriously.

And he was very sad. The entire Roland family was exiled by the Amazon Queen because they were not strong enough, which brought unprecedented trauma to their hearts.

During the battle of Duke Russell in Queen City, Shen Lang found that the Roland Knights were so brave that they were abnormal, almost full of the feeling of martyrs. Not only did they not fear death, but they seemed to be pursuing death.

It seems that only by dying on the battlefield can they prove that they are Amazon female warriors and not disgrace the glory of their ancestors.

………………

A handsome middle-aged man stood in front of Shen Lang. He was Lan Feng, the leader of the Eastern Knights.

"Do you have an older brother named Landao?" Shen Lang asked.

Lan Feng was startled and said, "Yes, but I fell out with him."

Shen Lang didn't ask him why he and Lando had a falling out, but it must be because of their different ideas.

Shen Lang said: "Grandmaster Lan Dao is my best friend."

Lan Feng said: "He has friends all over the world. Young Master Shen must not be deceived by his enthusiasm. Maybe he has countless close friends like you."

Lan Feng's words were full of ridicule. He should have left the Great Yan Empire a long time ago, so he thought that Lan Dao was the great master who was famous all over the world.

Shen Lang smiled and did not explain.

Lan Feng said: "There is one thing I must make clear with Young Master Shen, our Eastern Warriors escaped from the Dayan Dynasty very early, our identity is not visible, we are... the remnants of His Majesty Jiang Li, once we use If we do, we will completely offend the entire Great Yan Empire, are you sure you still want to use us? Do you dare to use us?”

Sure enough!

After the sudden death of His Majesty Jiang Li, many people died, and some people fled, and a small number of them fled overseas. Lanfeng's Eastern Warriors are all the troops of the Dagan Empire.

Shen Lang shrugged his shoulders and said, "General Lan Feng, you are too late, I have completely offended the Great Yan Empire to death."

General Lan Feng said: "That's okay, then I will follow Young Master Shen for the rest of my life. Queen Medusa saved our lives, and her will is our direction."

………………

Shen Lang stood on the deck and looked at the four ships.

This is his seed. After spending half a year in the Western world, he finally has an army of his own.

Although the number is very small, only two thousand people, they are very elite, and they belong to him, Shen Lang, alone.

Of course, this is still obtained by eating soft rice, but soft rice is also a kind of strength, right?

Black Pearl, Meng Luolan, Lan Feng, Zhang Chunhua are his team in the Western world.

Worth it!

In the western world, he traveled tens of thousands of miles, traveled for half a year, and got two thousand people, it was worth it!

The most difficult part of building a house is the foundation. Once the foundation is laid, the next high-rise building is just around the corner.

I am going to build my own city.

I'm going to start developing gunpowder, developing cannons, and developing a strong army.

………………

Shen Lang's fleet went all the way to the east, all the way to the east.

In the middle of the journey, I still encountered the fleet of the Third Empire of Xiron, as well as countless grain ships.

But Shen Lang's fleet is hanging the flag of pirates, so it is completely the water of the well and the water of the river.

On the Wanli Sea Road, although there were some troubles along the way, all of them were near misses, and Black Pearl dealt with it easily.

It turns out that the law of piracy on the sea is so easy to use, except for perverts like Qiu Yaoer, there are basically few direct fights, and it is mainly negotiation.

And what the hell, they encountered a lot of merchant ships along the way. While avoiding them, they sent gold coins according to the rules, saying that you should not come to loot me.

They will not go to war when they encounter a larger group of pirates. The two sides communicate with semaphores. The black pearl indicates that we are just passing by and have no intention of encroaching on your sea power.

Shen Lang couldn't help but sigh, with the disintegration of the Xilun Dynasty, this sea area is simply a paradise for pirates. There are hardly any natural enemies, and there is no official fleet to encircle and suppress them. As long as the pirates do not invade each other's sea areas, there will be no conflict at all. Even the other party will send food and wine.

Queen City is more than 15,000 miles away from Shen Lang's destination, and it needs to stop for supplies on the way.

Replacing someone else would definitely be the end, but Black Pearl was familiar with every pirate supply base. Every replenishment went smoothly, as long as the money was given.

Twenty-seven days of sailing.

Shen Lang finally reached his destination, the southernmost tip of the Bichao Peninsula.

It is close enough to Saltpeter Island, and there are abandoned iron mines on the island, which are the most suitable for Shen Lang's base.

Of course, this place is too close to Duke Debos's Bijin City, but the Duchess is still more than 10,000 miles away. She is now ambitiously preparing to build the Third Empire of Xiron and to completely destroy the Witch Empire.

Therefore, Shen Lang has a golden development period of several months, and there will be no enemies during this time.

From now on, this peninsula belongs to me, Shen Lang.

"Come on the island, build a city!"

With an order from Shen Lang, more than 2,000 people got off the ship and boarded the southernmost tip of the Bichao Peninsula.

So far, Lord Lang's development has officially entered the formal stage!

…………

Time is like water, time is like a shuttle.

The days of not being able to pretend quickly passed, and a month and a half passed.

…………

Note: The great cause of Lord Lang has finally entered the formal stage. Dear benefactors, please help me with the monthly ticket, and I will kowtow to you!

Thank you Jiang Dashao and ten thousand coins for the reward.
