I Can Grant Origin Powers To Anything

"Hmm, then I must trouble Prince Tairuo to expedite the process, after all, Mr. Wang is not someone who does charity; his interest rates are quite high, nine parts out of thirteen returns... sigh... to take the risk of losing the entire investment to lend us money in such a critical time, it's actually understandable that the interest is a bit high, right?"

Xu Lingjun smiled and said, "Fortunately, the Land of Light still has quite a few military facilities, and now that the Land of Light has suffered such heavy losses, I'm afraid those equipments will not be of use, at that time, I'll speak on your behalf, if we use these things as collateral to pay the debt, it shouldn't be much of a problem."

Tairuo's smile became forced.

He mumbled, "But if we lose these military facilities, and if the enemy attacks again..."

Although they essentially wouldn't use them.

People can grow with a hope for decades, but if these things are lost, just like Tairuo has always had an interest in the Land of Light, he couldn't believe that Xu Lingjun in front of him would let the Land of Light grow so freely.

Even though by now, they had completely lost their opportunity to stand on equal footing with the Great Xia Empire.

But even a sliver of a chance, they wouldn't want to let go.

Unfortunately…

Even such a negligible chance, Xu Lingjun also wouldn't want to let go.

Xu Lingjun said seriously, "They will not attack again, because this time, I plan to take the initiative."

Tairuo exclaimed, "What? Take the initiative? Isn't it too hasty?"

"We are eager, but the enemy is even more so! Do not forget, this time the mysterious races of the heavens took initiative and ended in failure, their losses must be extremely heavy."

Xu Lingjun said seriously, "So to thoroughly defeat the mysterious races of the heavens, this is the best opportunity! If we don't reclaim the Desperate Great Wall, we can only remain in passive defense, and even if we truly annihilate the Silicon Mysterious Clan, there will still be other races attacking then."

Tairuo was silent.

He naturally knew that what Xu Lingjun said was correct.

But right now… the Land of Light…

"Commander in Chief's proposal is naturally correct, but the biggest problem now is probably still the Night Demon."

Gauss interjected from behind Tairuo, "The Night Demon race is numerous and powerful. Moreover, they are under the control of the mysterious races of the heavens. If we fully attack the Desperate Great Wall, and they hold us back on one side while orchestrating the Night Demons to attack our defenses, then we might find ourselves facing attacks from both fronts, unable to cope."

"That's exactly what I wanted to say."

Xu Lingjun smiled proudly and said, "Do you all remember the Master of Silicon whom I beheaded before? I found a sword on him, I accidentally discovered that using this sword, I can actually control those Night Demons."

Upon hearing this.

The two were instantly stupefied.

Xu Lingjun explained, "There was no other way, before Vice Commander Han didn't take it seriously, just considering that sword to be a sharp divine weapon. After all, being carried by the Master of Silicon closely, its sharpness was naturally extraordinary, so he carried it. But who knew that when battling the Night Demons, he wielded that weapon and then found those Night Demons actually knelt before him. In fact, if it wasn't for such a coincidental opportunity, we might not have arrived here so quickly to aid the Land of Light."

The two uttered an 'oh', accepting this explanation.

"No wonder the battles were so intense before, but the Night Demons never joined the battlefield. It turns out the critical Controller fell into your hands."

Tairuo was secretly startled, thinking that, in this way... doesn't it mean that these Night Demons are now under the command of Xu Lingjun?

The Land of Light suffered severe losses, already lagging far behind the Great Xia Empire.

And now with these Night Demons added, it seems even if the Land of Light fully recovers, it cannot contend with the Great Xia Empire.

Gauss smiled bitterly, "Commander in Chief, your bid to counterattack, we understand and are willing to support, but with the current combat power of the Land of Light, I'm afraid it won't be much help in this battle..."

"Captain Gauss, what you said isn't entirely accurate."

Xu Lingjun smiled, "You can help us a lot, actually. If only the Great Xia Empire moves, the enemy might be on guard, so I plan to split the assault into three—respectively the Great Xia Empire, the Land of Light, and the previously obliterated Baoxue Empire. At that time, I'm afraid the Great Xia Empire's army will enter your Land of Light. Of course, we previously signed an agreement. The Land of Light has suffered grievously; it is necessary for our Great Xia Empire to station troops here to maintain order, killing two birds with one stone."

Seeing the slightly changing expressions, Xu Lingjun smiled, "And since the Night Demons have come under our control, it wouldn't make sense not to utilize their power to charge the Desperate Great Wall. But how should the Night Demons be sent up? The Great Xia Empire's warships are used for ferrying the living, these dead... coincidentally, your Land of Light's warships still have quite a few in stock, perfectly ready for our use to transport the warriors."

Tairuo: "........."

Looking at Xu Lingjun's amiable smile.

He only felt a chill running up to his skull.

Leaving no path for the Land of Light at all... not only stationing troops in the Land of Light, but after suffering substantial debts, they still need to cover their military expenses, and even their technological weapons must be pawned off to pay debts, and the warships are being turned into transport tools for space missions.

What is left of the Land of Light with this?

An empty shell?

Rise?

Detach from the control of the Great Xia Empire?

Even inside the Imperial Palace, Tairuo could hear the cheers from outside, shouting Light! Light! Light!

Today's appearance of the Light Giant Race undoubtedly set the entire Land of Light aglow, believing it was light that saved their nation.

And light…

Was the Commander Xu before them.

But unfortunately, they had already signed an agreement before, and every clause proposed by Xu Lingjun was so reasonable that they couldn't find any words to refute.

If before, relying on the national strength of the Land of Light, they could have reneged...

But now, reneging?

If they dare to renege, the Great Xia Empire doesn't even need to do anything, just recall their army, and the mysterious races of the heavens will sort them out.

Or maybe...

Perhaps the very night they pull back, the Night Demons would rebel, turning the entire Land of Light into a second Baoxue Empire!

Thinking of this, the shadow of disheartenment appeared in Tairuo's eyes, then he recalled something and somewhat hopefully asked, "Commander in Chief Xu, when you took in the nuclear energy, how is your body now?"

"Oh, you mean that."

Speaking of this, Xu Lingjun perked up immediately, smiled, and said, "My recovery is quite satisfactory, this incident can be considered a blessing in disguise, not only did the nuclear energy fail to take my life, it even allowed me to integrate nuclear energy into myself, elevating my strength further, and even gaining more insights, hmm… the Master of Silicon not only failed to kill me, but made me stronger."

Tairuo: "........."

His expression was wooden, having no idea what to say.

Can resistance still happen?

Probably not.

This Xu Lingjun's lifespan is likely to surpass his own.

Previous thoughts were wonderful, but now, given a second thought, all of it seems unreachably naive.

Tairuo finally resigned... even nuclear energy couldn't take Xu Lingjun's life, how extraordinarily strong must his strength have become?

He no longer had any last hope.

Tairuo had to admit, though he had yet to ascend the throne, he would likely be the last sovereign of the Land of Light.

After the Baoxue Empire, the Land of Light too, finally bore the surname 'Xia' now.

And Xu Lingjun's heart was further filled with gratification.

This time, the Great Xia Empire would equate to the entirety of Blue Star.

He could finally launch a full-force offensive at ease.
