The posture of the child walking was not very skilled. He
walked crookedly and couldn’t even walk in a straight line.
Jian Ning’s chubby face was pressed against the glass to the
point of deformation as he stared dumbfounded at the child.
He asked Wagner, “Should we let him in?”
Wagner’s face was also pressed against the glass. Not only
that, he also extended his own mental power outside.
Regarding the mental wave of the Zerg, it was a knowledge
point that imperial children must learn from kindergarten.
Wagner was the son of a Marshal. Although he did not have an
S+ mental power like his father since birth, his mental power level was also
very high.
However, he was still too young. Even if he released his
mental power, he was still not proficient in using skills such as attacking. He
just checked this child who suddenly appeared.
“He’s not a Zerg.”
Wagner gave his judgment: “He may have been separated from
his parents. Ningning, let’s go and bring him inside.”
Wagner had made his judgment, but Ningning was still hesitant
about whether to let the child in.
His father had often taught him that if he was not around, he
could not stay with strangers, nor could he bring strangers home.
Strangers were not allowed, so naturally, strange children
were not allowed either.
“Wagner.”
Ningning was still studying the strange child who walked
awkwardly, and whispered, “This child is so weird.”
Wagner looked carefully and felt a bit strange too: “Is it
because he just learned to walk, so he still can’t walk properly? Oh, he fell!”
Just as they were talking, the strange child who was walking
straight towards them stumbled on a stone under his feet. After this stumble,
the child couldn’t stand up for a long time.
He didn’t stand up, but he crawled forward with his hands and
feet, while still looking at them intently.
Wagner, who was usually brave, looked at this scene and
suddenly moved his face away from the glass.
He reached out and touched his arm, then looked up at
Ningning: “Ningning, I’m a little scared of this child.”
Jian Ning slowly stepped back. He looked at Wagner, who also
had a trace of fear on his face. “Wagner, I think the way he got up looks like
a Zerg.”
The two children looked at each other and both saw fear in
each other’s eyes.
Jian Ning was not afraid of Zergs, he had killed them before
under the guidance of his father and uncles. But he had never seen a kid who
looked like a Zerg before, and like Wagner, he was a little scared.
The outside kid crawled closer and closer, crawling on his
hands and feet on the ground, but he kept his head lifted up and continuously
looked in their direction.
Jian Ning gathered his courage and looked outside again. His
gaze met the other kid’s eyes once more. Then he saw the other child laughing
at him.
Dad had said that laughing was a friendly expression. But
Jian Ning, who was frightened, sniffed and felt scared by the other child’s
laughter.
He looked up at the glass and then reached out his chubby
hand to pull the unused curtain to cover the window. With the curtain blocking
the glass, the child crawling outside couldn’t be seen anymore.
“Ningning,” Wagner’s voice was small and seemed afraid of
startling the other kid, “Why isn’t your dad back yet?”
Children in fear always instinctively seek the protection of
adults.
Jian Ning missed his dad already and was now scared. His eyes
were moist with tears and his voice was shaking, but he tried to sound brave:
“I, I don’t know.”
Seeing that no adult had returned yet and there was still a
child outside crawling, Jian Ning wiped his eyes and grabbed Wagner’s hand.
“Let’s go play with toys and wait for Dad,” said Jian Ning,
trying to divert attention and ease his fear.
He pulled Wagner along to play with toys. They sat
cross-legged on the floor and played absent-mindedly.
After a few minutes, Jian Ning became more and more
distracted.
He accidentally broke the legs of his toy robot while playing
with it. The legs fell to the ground, and he bent down to pick them up.
“Bang--“
Suddenly, there was a collision sound on the glass. The
chubby-faced kid who was about to pick up the toy became flustered and turned
to look at the glass where the sound came from.
“Bang bang--“
Two more sounds followed.
This time, even Wagner was nervous. He held onto his toy and
looked at Ningning.
Not only was there the sound of knocking on the glass, but
also the laughter and babbling of a child.
Wagner couldn’t understand, and he asked nervously,
“Ningning, what’s that sound?”
Jian Ning felt like he could understand. His voice trembled
as he translated for Wagner. “He, he’s calling us to go out and play.”
Wagner shook his head like a drum. “Ningning, I don’t want to
go out and play.”
Jian Ning didn’t want to go out either.
His gaze fell on the star machine placed on the chair, and
his eyes lit up slightly. “Let’s call big brother! And uncle!”
Jian Ning was too young, and his family was not wealthy, so
Zhan Xi didn’t provide him with his own star machine. The father and son shared
one.
He called Huo Lin first.
Fortunately, Huo Lin picked up quickly, “Ningning, what’s
wrong?”
As soon as he heard his elder brother’s voice, the little
child who had been holding back his emotions suddenly couldn’t help it. He
didn’t dare cry out loud, only choked quietly and complained to his brother,
“Brother, I’m so scared.”
“There’s a child outside knocking on Ningning’s window.”
“He wants Ningning to come out and play.”
The child’s fear and panic were clearly heard by Huo Lin. He
stood up all of a sudden and left the table in a hurry. “Ningning, send me your
location. I’ll teach you how to send it...”
This call wasn’t long, because after Huo Lin taught him how
to send the location, he went to find someone and planned to go and find the
little child.
After finishing the call with his brother, the Ningning also
remembered the address. He wiped away his tears and started calling people one
by one from his contact list.
The child was not at all foolish. He had a specific order in
which he made his calls.
The first call was to Zhan Rao. In the little child’s mind,
Uncle Zhan was very powerful. The second call was to Mans. His brother said
that Mans was the strongest general in the Empire.
When calling these two people, Ningning and Wagner were
hiding in a room away from the glass. His crying was small, and his words were
only a few sentences:
“Come pick up Ningning, Ningning is on Ouyun Star.”
“Daddy hasn’t come back. It’s so scary outside the window.”
After calling the two most powerful uncles, Jian Ning also
thought of Uncle Ling Qi, who was very pretty but not very good at fighting.
He left a message for Uncle Ling Qi while still crying: “Uncle,
you, don’t come to Ouyun Star.”
After making a round of calls, he also influenced Wagner, who
didn’t want to make a call at first,. Wagner made a call to his father, but his
father’s phone still couldn’t be reached.
“Ningning.”
Here, Wagner could hear the sound of glass shattering, and
his nose turned red. He clutched the star machine that he had not been able to
use to make a call and tried hard to pretend that he wasn’t afraid.
But he was still just a child who was barely a year older
than Ningning. How could he not be afraid in such a situation?
He asked, “Is that kid a little monster?”
Normal children didn’t walk like that, nor did they make such
loud noises hitting the tough glass of a spaceship. They were not encountering
a lost child; they were encountering a little monster.
Ningning nodded in response to his question.
The two of them huddled together, and Wagner’s mental power
was uncontrollably spreading outwards. Ningning felt Wagner’s unstable mental
power, so he extended his own little sprout and began to comfort him.
Just as Ningning’s sprout emerged and began to work, the
child outside who had been hitting the glass suddenly stopped.
The next second.
The child’s face broke into a big smile, and the appearance
of a human toddler that he had been maintaining slowly faded away, replaced by
a white and tender but obviously young Zerg.
There was a golden mark on the Zerg’s forehead.
This Zerg was a newly born Zerg king.
The Zerg king no longer emitted the sound that lured human
children, and its body clung to the glass.
At the same time, a sticky substance was expelled from its
mouth, and the substance fell on the glass. The glass, which had been so hard
that it could withstand bullets, began to corrode little by little.
The Zerg king still had no mental power fluctuations, and
Zhan Xi mental power network was completely ineffective against it.
Zhan Xi’s mental power level had improved significantly in
recent years, but even if the emperor himself were to come, it would be
impossible to detect a Zerg king without mental power fluctuations.
The entire process was not long.
After corroding a large enough gap in the glass, the Zerg
king crawled straight in.
The Zerg king was born intelligent, so even though its age
was young, its thinking ability was not that of a toddler’s.
It crawled in, skipping the steps of searching for its
target, because it sensed the mental power it was looking for - a healing power
that had disappeared for a long time and should not exist among the lowly
humans.
The crawling sound was faint.
The tightly closed cabinet door was opened, and two little
children who were hugging each other looked at the Zerg in front of them, their
eyes filled with intense fear.
The star machine fell into the cabinet.
The two children who had just hugged each other disappeared
into the cabinet a few minutes later.
Shortly after they disappeared, Zhan Xi hurried back.
“Ningning!!!”
“Wagner!!!”
When Zhan Xi came back and saw the closed door, he was about
to relax. However, when he pushed open the door, he saw the broken window and
the sticky residue on the ground.
At that moment, Zhan Xi felt as if he had fallen into an ice
cave.
He searched the spaceship but could not find the two
children. Without hesitation, he headed towards the broken glass window.
Outside the window, there was only land everywhere.
He forcefully stabilized his mind and looked for traces and
clues on the ground.
He had cleaned up the area around the spaceship very
thoroughly, and the children were in his “net.” For people with a high level of
mental power, the mental power net was like the most sensitive private domain.
Private domain was recognized as the safest place.
Now, he couldn’t find his son in his “net.”
Those who had received a call from the children were all
heading towards Ouyun Star.
Zhan Rao assigned a team of the strongest fighters, and after
explaining the call to them, they did not hesitate and all took their weapons
and followed Zhan Rao onto the spaceship.
General Mans, who had just finished the battle, sensed
something was wrong when he heard the name “Ouyun Star.”
The Emperor himself had led the expedition to Ouyun Star, and
logically speaking, the little child wouldn’t have been so afraid to ask for
help if the Emperor was there.
Mans thought back to the young child’s tearful plea and
looked down at the Emperor’s unanswered phone call. His heart sank, and he
didn’t even bother to clean the bloodstains on his body as he ordered his
troops to change the course of the spaceship to Ouyun Star.
Ling Qi, who was told not to come to Ouyun Star by the crying
child, didn’t hesitate a bit after hanging up the phone and headed straight
there.
Everyone had one goal now: Ouyun Star.
Perhaps it was a father-son telepathic connection or perhaps
it was because of Zhan Xi’s attentiveness, but in this anxious state of mind,
he managed to calm himself down and find the traces left behind by Ningning.
Ningning might have found some milk powder.
When he was “taken away,” Ningning secretly spilled the milk
powder he had hidden in his pocket on the ground.
At this moment, he wasn’t killed by the Zerg king nor was he
parasitized by it. He was being dragged forward wrapped in the Zerg king’s
cocoon.
He and Wagner were in the same cocoon, hugging each other too
tightly to be separated, causing the Zerg king to have to use only one cocoon
to take them away.
The Zerg king could move alone here, but it had no helpers.
The surviving Zergs within several miles had all been found
and killed by the owner of the spaceship. Human mental power always seemed to
be able to target their race.
Fortunately, the child’s appearance would completely break
this targeted attack.
The young child, who was wrapped in the cocoon, also noticed
the Zerg king’s “weakness.” He looked at the Zerg corpses around him and
suddenly thought that his father must be nearby!
Dad wouldn’t let Ningning be in danger!
He thought of his father, and his courage swelled up in his
heart. His little brain started working, and instead of soothing Wagner’s
mental power, he touched Wagner’s arm and urged Wagner’s mental power to erupt.
The power of a mental riot was uncontrollable and would
spontaneously attack other powers.
Ningning himself had no mental power and was not afraid of
being attacked. He wanted Wagner to attack his father’s mental power so that
his father could know their specific location.
The Zerg king crawled very slowly.
A few minutes later.
Zhan Xi, who was nearby and looking for milk powder, suddenly
raised his head and locked onto a direction.
The Zerg king was born with tens of thousands of Zergs
serving it and had poor independent abilities. Not only was its independent
ability poor, but the Zerg king, who had just been born, was far less powerful
than an adult Zerg king.
Zhan Xi’s eyes were full of killing intent as he planned to
attack the Zerg king.
Jian Ning felt his father getting closer and closer and tried
to kick his chubby legs harder.
Just as the father and son were getting closer to each
other’s location, the Zerg king suddenly spoke up, “Do you want to meet your
Imperial Emperor? He’s in Ouyun Star.”
The Zerg king’s language was different from that of the
imperial people, but Jian Ning somehow understood the other.
After hearing the Zerg king’s words, the little child trapped
in the cocoon replied, “I don’t believe you! His Majesty is super powerful, he
will definitely kill you all!”
The little child intentionally called him “His Majesty”
instead of “Uncle” to sound more imposing.
The Zerg king continued crawling and said, “Believe it or
not, your Imperial Emperor’s mental power has had a riot. Don’t you want to
soothe his mental power? As long as you follow me, I can take you to see him.”
These words actually made the little child’s face show a
slight hesitation.
Before Ludwig set off, the little child had already sensed
that his mental power was unstable. If he had a riot in this place, it would be
highly likely to happen.
While hesitating, the little child saw his father’s figure
not far away through the cocoon.
Behind him was his father.
Ahead of him was Uncle LuLu.
The little child was struggling for a moment when suddenly,
an unexpected ditch appeared in front of him.
Without thinking, the Zerg king jumped down.
Jumping down meant entering the territory of Ouyun Star,
where some humans and numerous Zergs lived.
The Zerg king was born there, but its ambition was not
limited to this place.
At the moment they jumped down, Zhan Xi’s figure also
appeared behind them. They jumped down one after the other, and Zhan Xi also
saw his little chubby son’s face.
“Don’t be afraid.”
Zhan Xi opened his mouth to the little child. With him
around, even if they entered Ouyun Star, his little son would be safe and
sound.
Moreover, before they jumped down, he already knew that
General Mans and the little prince were on their way. In addition, Wagner’s
marshal father had also been contacted.
Anyone who dared to kidnap his cub and the son of the Federal
Marshal, even if Ouyun Star had a Zerg king, they would still die!
Thanks for the update!! 😱
