Chapter 1128: Plans and Paradoxes

"It is quite strange. It seems we need to investigate the conditions on those planets further. They’re currently fighting over a planet called Lumora," Amalia noted.

"There must be a significant human population on that planet," Kenny Lin speculated.

"I’ll ask Khalil. He’s likely to know the details," Amalia said, her mind retreating into her small world.

After absorbing Shadron, her small world expanded by another 0.1%.

Compared to the immense power feedback from Regnum Tellus, Shadron didn’t enhance her strength much.

The only noticeable change was an increase in the size of her small world.

Under the leadership of Khalil and Nazir, the inhabitants of Shadron had already settled into her small world.

Wooden and stone houses were being built in a structured manner.

The people were drenched in sweat and working diligently, found solace in each other’s company, which lessened their feelings of loneliness and helplessness.

Not only Khalil, but the residents were also quite content with their current lives.

Amalia glanced at them briefly before turning her attention away.

Her voice directly echoed in Khalil’s mind, inquiring about the situation on several nearby planets.

Having experienced this once before, Khalil had grown somewhat accustomed to a voice that was suddenly appearing in his mind.

Without hesitation, he provided a rough overview.

The planets in question were not significantly different from each other.

Being located on the outskirts of the Erythar Star System, their economic development was fairly similar.

If there were any distinctions, it would be the population.

Lumora and Gaia had a considerably larger population base.

Before the war began, both planets had populations exceeding one billion.

Since the outbreak of war, both planets had suffered significant losses.

However, even now, their populations were estimated to still be in the tens of millions.

"What was Shadron’s population back then?" Amalia asked.

"Around ten million," Khalil replied.

"Lumora and Gaia have retained about one-tenth of their populations, while Shadron was reduced to only one percent. Such a massive difference suggests that their target is almost certainly humans. I remember you mentioned before that the aliens seemed to be raising humans."

"Yes, but I don’t know the aliens’ purpose for doing so," Khalil admitted.

"Got it. Thanks," Amalia said before preparing to withdraw.

"Ms. Amalia, do you need us to come out and assist?" Khalil asked quickly.

"Not for now," Amalia replied.

"Haven’t the aliens’ battleships been chasing the ship you were on?" he asked, concerned.

"No. Kenny and I are currently on the aliens’ battleship. They’re unaware of our presence. If you come out now, it will only attract attention. Stay where you are for now. Once we’ve dealt with the aliens on this battleship, we’ll let you out," she reassured him.

Khalil froze.

They were on the aliens’ battleship?

And the two benefactors intended to handle an entire battleship of aliens on their own?

By the time he processed this information, Amalia’s consciousness had already left the small world.

No matter how much he called out to her, there was no response.

"Lieutenant Khalil, what are you zoning out about?" Tariq called out several times but got no response.

The Lieutenant stood there with a vacant expression, finally snapping back to attention after persistent shouting.

Faced with such horrifying revelations, Khalil decided it was best to keep the information to himself for now and not share it with anyone else.

Amalia summarized Khalil’s words into a single sentence and told Kenny Lin, "The aliens’ target is almost certainly humans. It seems there’s something they need humans for. Other than spotting the humans at the bottom of the ship, what else did you discover?"

"Lots of mechas, and the energy stones you found in the Cosmorite Mechas before. The aliens’ Cosmorite Mechas need to replace their energy stones at regular intervals, and the replacements are kept below deck," Kenny Lin said, pointing to the floor beneath their feet. He then smiled meaningfully. "I have an idea. What do you think?"

"I also have an idea. What do you think?" Amalia replied with a playful smile.

"I think it’s feasible," Kenny Lin said without even asking what she was referring to.

"Are you sure we’re talking about the same thing?" Amalia asked.

"It doesn’t matter whether we’re talking about the same thing. Whatever you want to do, I’ll definitely support it. And whatever I want to do, if you don’t support it, I won’t do it," Kenny Lin declared.

Amalia didn’t hesitate. "Then let’s cancel our previous bet?"

"Don’t even think about it," Kenny Lin retorted without a second’s pause.

"You didn’t say that just now," Amalia said with a laugh.

She had anticipated his response, which was why she had brought it up in jest.

Kenny Lin huffed. "Anything except that—everything else, I’ll agree to."

Amalia smiled. "Alright, back to the matter at hand. What’s your idea?"

The alien crew aboard this starship numbered at least in the tens of thousands.

Eliminating them all at once would be troublesome.

If they only wanted the battleship, they could simply resort to brute force, but that would give the aliens enough time to destroy the ship.

"To avoid complications, these aliens will probably act quickly and resolve matters with the other planets," Kenny Lin remarked, evading the immediate question.

He suddenly asked, "When the people of Shadron entered your small world, did you feel anything unusual?"

Amalia instantly caught his meaning. "Are you suggesting we let the humans from Lumora and the other planets enter my small world too?"

"That’s the fastest solution. Otherwise, who knows if we’ll ever get another opportunity like this?" Kenny Lin didn’t deny his intention.

"I don’t think it’s feasible. Their situation is different from that of Shadron. Back then, everything aligned in our favor, and they agreed. The most important thing is that my small world can’t accommodate more than twenty million people."

If the population exceeded the world’s capacity, it would strain and damage it.

Amalia understood this instinctively, even without guidance from Wealth.
