Chapter 1506 Queen (There is no point in going to Hainan alone)

It has to be said that the Iron Cavalry Corps is very efficient.

When Duanmu Huai and the others walked out of the shelter, the swarm of insects that had been raging here had completely disappeared, and even the buzzing sound of insects could not be heard. Only large numbers of insect corpses showed how cruel the previous battle was, but at least for now, the insects here have been completely cleared out.

Of course, this is also because Duanmu Huai had dealt with the swarm of insects in space in advance, resulting in the invading insects having no reinforcements. Otherwise, it might be hard to say who will win.

The location of the queen, Lumiel, has been locked. As expected, it is on this planet, and it is not too far away from everyone, just half the distance of the city. So Duanmu Huai and his party also followed the navigation while walking and taking a walk to digest the food.

At the same time, Duanmu Huai also told everyone about his plan.

"So, Mr. Grand Inquisitor, you mean to recruit these cavalrymen?"

Alicia opened her eyes wide and stared at him.

"Yes, these cavalrymen are indeed very efficient. You saw how arrogant those insect swarms were just now. Now that these insects have been eliminated, it shows that these cavalrymen are very good at this. It just so happens that the Inquisition does need troops that are good at fighting insects. Since the ruling parliament does not intend to use these cavalrymen, then let the Inquisition recruit them. And you know what, this cavalry mecha looks quite interesting."

Duanmu Huai looked at the design blueprint presented on the terminal with satisfaction. Yes, that's right. Since he was here, he might as well make the best of it. Duanmu Huai didn't like to return empty-handed. So he asked Lumiel to pack up a copy of the database of the Grammer Republic and take it back. After all, the other party was a country that had already perished, so he didn't have to worry about anyone asking him for copyright fees.

Of course, we are not afraid unless the Inquisition is destroyed.

According to Duanmu Huai's plan, he intended to transform the Iron Cavalry like he did with the Night Guard. To put it bluntly, just like the Night Guard, let those clones possess the Iron Cavalry mechas to fight.

After all, they are dead.

"Then how are you going to solve the breeding problem?"

"Although it's a pity, we can only end their breeding destiny."

Duanmu Huai shook his head. In fact, the breeding destiny is indeed very useful for massing troops, but it is easy to cause problems if it gets out of control. However, as long as these cavalry are converted into soul cards, there is no need to worry about them being damaged in battle. They can be directly thrown into the graveyard for resurrection. Of course, the specific situation will be discussed in detail after he meets the queen.

As they were talking, they had already passed through the ruined streets and arrived at the Queen's place. It must be said that from the outside, this place really looked like a palace. And compared to the ruined buildings that everyone had seen before, which were almost in ruins, this palace was quite intact.

"Stop!"

Just when Duanmu Huai was about to take the three girls for a walk, accompanied by a shout, a cavalryman dropped from the sky and landed in front of them.

"This is the royal palace. No one is allowed to enter without permission... Why are you here again?"

"Oh, it's you. What a coincidence."

Although the other person was wearing an Iron Cavalry mecha and his appearance could not be seen, Duanmu Huai could guess who she was from her tone - after all, that was the only Iron Cavalry member they knew.

"We have something we want to discuss with your Queen. Is she available?"

"Now?"

The mecha girl was somewhat surprised by Duanmu Huai's answer. She was silent for a moment, as if she was trying to communicate in some way, and then the mecha girl nodded.

"Your Majesty agrees to meet with you all. Please follow me."

Afterwards, the mecha girl led everyone into the palace gate.

The originally tightly closed metal door slowly opened, revealing the cold inorganic white light inside. When everyone followed the mecha girl in and saw the scene inside clearly, the three girls widened their eyes in surprise, and even Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows curiously.

The whole palace gave people the feeling of a huge greenhouse. However, what was planted in this greenhouse were not vegetables or fruits, but huge, oval-shaped incubators. Through the transparent glass, one could see the figures of the girls in these incubators. Their faces were exactly the same as the mecha girl that Duanmu Huai and others had seen before.

Well, this is nonsense. After all, they are copied and cloned. If they are different, it is called genetic mutation.

These oval-shaped incubation chambers are like large grapes, densely covering the entire wall and surroundings. The scene is shocking just by looking at it.

"Well, that's right. It's really amazing. It's worthy of being something that humans can do."

Duanmu Huai folded his arms, looked at the scene in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction. No matter which world the human beings are from, they are really awesome when they are ruthless. It can be imagined that when this device is running at full speed, the number of iron cavalry that can be released at a time may be as many as tens of thousands.

No wonder the Grammer Republic dares to fight against the Star God with mortal bodies, they really have some skills.

Duanmu Huai had no idea about the decision of Gramer's ruling parliament, but at least they really did it. Just based on this, it was enough for Duanmu Huai to show his respect for Gramer.

Led by the mecha girl, the group walked forward. They saw the hatchery, the mecha assembly room, and even the drill ground for practice. It can be said that the entire palace is more like a large fully automated factory than a palace, which undertakes the entire process from birth to becoming a cavalry. It can be said that after coming out of the hatchery, walking around, and then going out, you are a Grammer cavalry.

I have to say, this automated assembly line is indeed quite interesting. Duanmu Huai doesn’t understand it, but if Maria came here, she would probably drool…

Finally, they arrived at the meeting room.

Compared to other places, this place looks a bit like a palace. A heavy curtain fell from the high dome. Under the light, a figure could be vaguely seen sitting on a chair behind the curtain. Apart from anything else, just looking at this scene, there was indeed a bit of the queen's aura.

"Your Majesty, the distinguished guest has been brought here." The mecha girl knelt on the ground and reported in a low voice.

"Got it, back off..."

A distant, deep voice came, and the mecha girl quickly bowed, stood up and left the meeting room. Duanmu Huai then took a step forward, came to the bottom of the throne, and stared at the figure in front of him. At the same time, the voice sounded again.

"Travelers from afar...what is your purpose in coming here...?"

"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense, so I'll get straight to the point."

Duanmu Huai never engages in negotiation. The attitude of the court is that what is yours is mine, and what is mine is still mine. If I like it, you have to give it to me whether you want to or not.

"You have no future here, why not join the Inquisition?"

"………………………"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, Alicia slapped herself on the forehead speechlessly, Lumiel said nothing, and Mu Geng just shook his head and said nothing.

Although the three people's expressions are different, the inner meaning is the same.

  How can you talk like that?

Liumiel was fine, as she had been with Duanmu Huai for a long time and knew that this was how Duanmu Huai spoke in order to make people angry to death. However, Alicia and Mu Geng were a little overwhelmed.

  Are you sure we are here to recruit you and not to cause trouble?

There won't be a fight next, right?

Kisara had silently grasped the hilt of his sword, and Alicia took two steps back.

If a fight breaks out later, at least don't get your clothes dirty.

"………………………"

Even the queen probably didn't expect Duanmu Huai to be so direct. She was speechless for a moment. After a moment, her voice sounded again.

"Thank you for your kindness...Traveler...but...this place...is everything to us..."

As the queen spoke, the curtain that was originally covering the scene slowly rose, and the four people saw everything hidden behind it.

That was...a scene that was completely beyond their expectations.

A silver-haired woman sat quietly on the throne, and behind her, dozens of tubes hung from the ceiling, connecting to the throne along the wall. One could even see that all parts of the silver-haired woman's body were connected to various tubes, just like a patient in the ICU. Her body was skinny, and even her face looked like a skeleton covered in skin and bones.

"I see. This is how the ruling council uses the power of reproduction."

Duanmu Huai was not too surprised when he saw this scene. He nodded silently. After all, it is not easy to be the king of the insect swarm. Just think of bees and ants. Although the queen is the ruler, they exist to reproduce. Just like the silver-haired woman in front of him, everything about her was taken out by the machine and fed to the "soldier bees". As the mother, she would naturally become like this.

"As you can see... we can't leave here. This is our empire... the Grammer Empire... we will protect it... until the last moment..."

"But the Empire does not exist."

Duanmuhuai waved his hand.

"If you don't move, you will die. It is not in the interest of the Inquisition to annihilate you all here. In the eyes of the Inquisition, you have better value. So, you really don't want to consider it?"

“We…have…no…choice…”

The Queen's voice was intermittent, low and full of majesty.

"The swarm of insects is coming... this will be the end of everything..."

"oh……………"

Duanmuhuai touched his chin.

"So if I help you deal with the Zerg, are you willing to submit to the Inquisition?"

"………………………………"

This time, the queen was silent for a long time.

"Then...I have a condition..."

Then she spoke.
