CHAPTER 1135: CHAPTER 1133: LOCKED ONTO BY THE ESCAPE POD

[Xiaomei, have we been tricked?] Sally realized something, ten thousand Cosmic Points, that’s equivalent to ten trillion System Points!

She had posted a task in the System Store before, and it was 008 who took it, which was only 10,000 System Points!

Xiaomei replied: [Yes, Host! Now all the subsystems developed by the Main System know that the host is the richest host.]

[...What did they say about me?]

[Beautiful, rich]

[Stop, let’s leave it at that.] Sally instinctively felt the rest was not flattering.

Xiaomei zipped her lip.

Sally stretched while piloting the spaceship, [Xiaomei, is it normal for these previously vanished races in the Abel Universe to revive?]

[It’s normal and not normal, as the Heavenly Dao says, cause and effect reincarnation. It’s not normal because these revived races have unnatural elements in them, possibly related to the Taixi Federation.]

[The Taixi Federation Star System... used to be one of the Seven Major Star Systems, now turned into a minor system, definitely unwilling. But it’s been so many years, the kings of the Taixi Federation must have changed several times, right?]

[The current king of the Taixi Federation Star System is Harry Taisi.]

[Harry? This name sounds familiar.]

[The ancestor of the 24th generation was also named Harry Rabbizobal Abel.]

[Is it a coincidence?]

[Probably, Harry is a very common name. There’s no restriction, anyone can use it.]

Sally’s consciousness entered the Child Raising System and found that the children’s talents had varying degrees of depletion but quickly recovered, and the growth value of their Secret Techniques was also rapidly increasing.

Even Little Niannian’s Hongmeng Secret Skill grew from 1% to 5%, showing indeed that theory can’t beat practice.

No wonder Qing Linghuan loves fighting, his strength was cultivated through battles.

’Bang—’ It seemed the spaceship hit something.

After scanning, Xiaomei said to Sally: [It’s a random escape pod!]

[Random escape pod?] Sally had never heard of it.

[It’s like a lucky draw. In a desperate situation with no escape, one relies on fate’s decision for uncertain survival. It might lead to immediate death, or it might provide a chance for survival.]

[Ignore it.] Sally continued navigating the spaceship forward in a teleport jump.

Yet, the escape pod seemed to be a clingy nuisance, sticking tightly to the ship, completely unshakable!

Xiaomei said to Sally: [Host, crashing into something in the vast interstellar space is also fate, why not open it up and see? What if there’s a treasure or something?]

[Greedy. This is an escape, what treasure could there be.]

[Running away is when you carry the most valuable things.]

[...] Sally checked the map, there was a Boride Star ahead, at the current spaceship speed, it could reach there in fifteen minutes.

[Alright, it might indeed be fate, let’s see what’s in it, prepare to trace back time.]

[Okay, Host, it’s been a while since we did a trace.]

[Mainly because it’s too wasteful of points. If it weren’t for my pockets being full now, I wouldn’t waste a single one on unrelated matters.]

Sally had Xiaomei move the escape pod into the spaceship, then opened the pod door...

Inside was a newborn baby.

Sally was surprised, [Why is it a child?]

Xiaomei started tracing the baby’s timeline...

Soon, she said to Sally: [Indeed, it’s fate. The baby’s father is someone the host knows, Chexus Aslanda.]

[Chexus?] Sally was surprised, calculating the time, if Chexus were still alive, he would likely be old by now, [Let me see.]

In the video, Chexus was tall and broad, unlike the slender figure of a young man, his face was not the refined youth she remembered, but deeper and more three-dimensional, his lips pressed slightly downward, exuding a natural aura of noble authority.

He took a baby from the arms of a Palace Attendant, his expression becoming extraordinarily gentle, secretly suppressing his excitement.

The Palace Attendant said, "Your Majesty, Princess Mo is gone."

"..." Regret showed in Chexus’s eyes.

Then another person, covered in blood, came in, resembling Zulu somewhat, but already aging, missing one arm, "Your Majesty, rebels and the Insect Clan army are approaching, we should retreat first."

Chexus looked at the sleeping baby in his arms, showing reluctance, "Luky, take him to Abel Star, now Yanyan has returned, ask her to protect this child."

"No! I won’t last much longer, I’ll hold them off here to buy Your Majesty time." Luky urgently said.

The sounds of battle were getting closer and closer.

Chexus handed Luky an SSS-grade Red Blood Angel Mecha, and also rolled a bright yellow amulet into a small ball, tucking it into the baby’s hand, "Please!"

He wouldn’t allow Luky to refuse anymore, so Chexus activated his own battle mecha and teleported away.

Seeing this, Sally frowned, [The Aslanda Star System, it seems quite serious.]

[Yes, Host.] Xiaomei replied.

In the video, even though Luky tried, he couldn’t escape the encirclement of rebels.

Finally, with the last ounce of life, Luky used the escape pod from the Red Blood Angel Mecha, pressed the random escape option, sending the baby away, praying that the escape pod would head towards Sally’s direction!

[Host, we’ve arrived at Boride Star.]

[No need.] If it’s Chexus’s child, it certainly can’t be casually discarded, and if this is Chexus’s only offspring, he would be the heir to the Aslanda Star System!

The baby suddenly cried, and looking at the little one, Sally remembered her children, who were all fighting now.

Although for them, those are just whetstones to sharpen their talents and Secret Techniques, thinking they are on a battlefield, her heart couldn’t help but sigh.

[Xiaomei, prepare a bottle of milk he can drink.] Sally said to Xiaomei.

Suddenly, she remembered something, opened the baby’s little hand... but it was empty, there was no amulet paper ball. She realized that in the video, the amulet Chexus had given the child was her Sound Transmission Talisman.

[Okay, Host.] Xiaomei responded.

The baby finally drank his first milk since birth, after such a twisty journey.

"Sleep well," Sally dressed the baby in comfortable baby clothes and placed him in the nursery pod Little Meimei used before.

[What does the Host plan to do?]

[For the time being, of course, bring him along. You find 008, since he just conned me out of a sum, he should at least assign some work. Besides, the Aslanda Star System shouldn’t be dangerous for him.]

[008 agreed, he’s already heading to the Aslanda Star System.]

[There’s also some news, He Cheng is dead.]

[Huh? 001?]

[001 is the Divine Wealth System, He Cheng was 000, the Supervision System.]

[...I misspoke, so what now.]

[The Main System has backup data, the 000 Supervision System can be restored at any time. But He Cheng’s soul couldn’t be saved.]

Images of He Cheng flashed through Sally’s mind, especially those fragments of when they joined a love TV show, how he tried to woo Xiao Mumu, not knowing how to please him with a silly demeanor...

[Did the Main System know?]

[Yes, it sent a message, instructing the host not to go to the Taixi Federation Star System.]

[Why?]

[It’s dangerous!] Xiaomei played a video showing everywhere rife with the Death Announcing Clan!

[Some are mutated Death Announcing Clan, although they do not have the ability to split, they can consume anything and convert it into energy in their bodies, exploding when reaching the limit, their power could destroy a planet!]
