From Douluo Dalu to Queen

Chapter 184 The Legend of the Sun-Moon Empire

The huge gun hole suddenly shrank, and then burst into violent flames and a sound like the collapse of the earth. Just three seconds later, a bright light visible to the naked eye suddenly bloomed on the hilltop nearly 10,000 meters away. Then, a white mushroom cloud rose up, carrying a devastating momentum, as if to destroy everything.

"Oh wow! So cool!" In order to see this spectacular scene first, Leng Xiyao quickly opened the cockpit door and got out, took out a telescope, and observed this horrifying scene that shocked the world and made ghosts cry.

Tang San and Lightman also followed out and looked at the huge mushroom cloud in the distance. They looked at each other in amazement.

The volume of the mushroom cloud was not very large, probably only one or two kilometers in diameter, but does this also mean that all living things within one or two kilometers have been devoured?

And this was just a random shot. Isn't it a bit too scary?

However, what they didn't know was that these fusion bombs were not something that ordinary siege tanks could be equipped with. It was only because these two tanks were rewards given by the system that they were equipped with various ammunition, which is why they were able to get two fusion bombs.

Leng Xiyao looked at the rising mushroom cloud and realized this problem. The smile on her face disappeared immediately.

It felt great when I fired the shot, but now that I’ve come to my senses I feel so sad!

It is estimated that she cannot replicate such precious shells. Every time she fires one, there will be one less.

The fired shells are like spilled water, no matter how much you feel bad, you can't take them back. Thinking of this, Leng Xiyao didn't want to care about it anymore, and turned to Tang San and Lightman with a forced smile and said, "How is it, did you learn it after watching me operate it once?"

"Um, I don't quite understand."

Tang San and Letterman shook their heads, still looking confused.

"Well, in that case, let me explain it to you again."

After saying that, Leng Xiyao once again pulled Tang San and Lightman into the cab, but this time she was not going to fire, but to explain the usage of each component.

What they didn't know was that just when the three of them went outside to observe the explosion, the mechanical female voice reported again:
"Firing completed, human target hit: 1, human target killed: 0, human target seriously injured: 1."

……

As one of the three pillars of the Sun-Moon Empire, Xu Yongyuan is actually quite proud.

His pride came not only from his soul power of level 98, but more from the fact that he had a good granddaughter.

The Sun-Moon Empire is somewhat similar to the Star Luo Empire, which is reflected in the royal marriages.

This story begins when the Sun-Moon Empire was founded. When it was first founded, the Sun-Moon Empire actually had not one emperor, but two.

These two men were brothers with the same surname but different clans. Both were geniuses that attracted worldwide attention at the time. However, they had no power and their families were not very strong. But for some reason, they suddenly raised a big banner and announced that they would unify the continent that had been in conflict for a long time and had not been named at the time.

The Sun-Moon Empire was established in this way, and the result was of course that they unified the entire continent, and naturally named the continent the Sun-Moon Continent.

The two brothers did not lose their original intentions because of power. They were still interdependent. At the same time, two thrones were established, and the two emperors ruled the world together.

But they also understood that this was not a long-term solution, and the imperial structure of the two kings could not continue after their deaths. Therefore, how to smoothly complete the transfer of power without damaging the relationship between the two families became the primary problem.

At that time, the country was just beginning to settle down and there were no major problems, so the two emperors were able to rest. During this rest, they naturally had to make babies. And as luck would have it, one of the two queens gave birth to a son and the other gave birth to a daughter.

So the two of them hit it off and set up an ancestral precept, which was that their families must uphold the tradition of one clan being the emperor and the other being the queen from generation to generation.

This does not mean that one family is always the emperor and the other is always the empress, but that the one who achieves success comes first.

In other words, after the next generation of direct descendants of the two families is born, they will be immediately appointed as heirs, and the new generation of members will be trained in the same way as the new emperor, while the older generation will pass the throne to the middle-aged generation to become the Protector of the Nation Douluo.

What? You ask why both families raise their children according to the system of training a prince?

This is the cleverness of these two ancestors – there is no restriction on the emperor’s gender!

That is to say, in each iteration, the two families must each elect two heirs, one male and one female. They will compete when they come of age. If the male wins, he will become the emperor and the other female will become the queen; if the female wins, she will become the future empress and the male will become the regent, second only to the emperor.

The queen is not just a vase in the harem, she also has the right to be regent, which is no less powerful than the regent of a male loser.

Of course, no matter who wins or loses in the end, the two will be united in the end to maintain the closeness of the two families. What's more coincidental is that both families have the surname Xu and are not from the same clan, so naturally they are not a close relative.

The two families continued this ancestral precept, and although they were constantly competing, they never damaged their harmony. Instead, they were interdependent, and the strength of the empire became stronger with each generation.

After all, this competition is extremely fair. Both families must take turns to train heirs. In other words, the family that trained a male heir in the previous generation must train a female heir in the current generation, thus ensuring that each time there is a man and a woman competing between the two families.

This man and woman are both the best talents of the Xu family today, and naturally they have extraordinary abilities. With these two people combined, it will be hard for the empire not to develop.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh: The ancestor is so wise!
However, despite this, for nearly a hundred generations since the founding of the Sun-Moon Empire, in the competition between the two sides, unless the man is too useless, few women can win and become the next generation emperor of the empire recognized by the people and the powerful.

That’s right, the final ownership of the throne was actually the result of the joint choice of the people and the nobles.

However, all along, the crown princes of the two families have only been concerned with maintaining their relationship with the nobles, and no one has ever tried to win over the people. Over time, the selection of the heir to the throne has become the exclusive domain of the nobles, and has nothing to do with the people. Anyway, it doesn't matter who becomes emperor, and ordinary people will still live their lives as usual, so no one cares who the emperor is.

Xu Binglan was the first heir to the throne who ascended to the position of Crown Princess by relying directly on the support of the people, completely ignoring the aristocracy and her competitors by giving speeches everywhere.

Of course, it could also be the last one.
