Five-year-old angel cub Chu Zao grew up alone. He had an unusual halo, jet-black hair, and would turn into a fluffy white ball of a little monster in moments of crisis. As an anomaly within his cla...
Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Zao Zao is the most powerful little angel!! …
This is a bit like a thriller for the Crown Clan.
"Ouch?"
Little Chuzao blinked her big eyes and held her crown halo in confusion.
This one can be taken off.
Any questions?
This is a big problem.
Amos looked at little Chuzao in silence, then looked at the halo in the little guy's arms and the nutrient solution lying beside him.
He felt like he had a headache.
In the physical sense.
He turned around and went to modify the route map.
"Let's go to the nearby wandering planet first."
Amos said.
"I'm going to find you something to eat. Can you put the halo away first?"
If we go to a wandering planet, this halo is a bit too conspicuous.
Little Chuzao thought about it—and responded with a howl.
This is really strange. In his original world, the angel halo is used to show one's identity at all times, but here it has to be put away.
The golden halo gradually disappeared in the cub's arms. The little white ball rolled over and climbed up. There was a circle of white fluffy hair around his little head. His pointed ears stood up and shook gently, and he stretched out his little paws - "Woo-ah."
I want a hug.
"no."
Amos spoke seriously to the little guy.
Although we don't know the origin of this little guy, since he is a cub of the Crown Clan, even if there is any conspiracy, Xiao Chuzao is undoubtedly the last cub of the Crown Clan and will be trained as a true member of the Crown Clan.
Although Amos had no experience in raising cubs, he vaguely remembered from his memory long ago that he did not act like a spoiled child when he was a cub.
Most of his brothers and other members of the clan also showed the competitive side of the Crown Clan when they were young. None of them were so soft and wanted to be hugged.
"Ouch?"
The little cub tilted its head and looked at Amos. Its ears twitched and it barked again, then slowly put down its little paws. Its voice sounded a little pitiful.
No, you don't want to hug me anymore?
Yeah, that’s fine. Zao Zao doesn’t really want to be hugged, and she doesn’t really envy others for getting so many hugs.
AMOS: ...
A moment later, Amos sat in front of the starship control instrument with a stern face, with a soft little ball in his arms.
The little guy's head had already drooped, he was so tired that he fell asleep, his two short paws stretched out, holding his head, his little body slowly rose and fell with his breathing and heartbeat.
Amos looked down in silence.
A moment later, a pitch-black crown on the verge of breaking slowly appeared above Amos's head.
Amos seemed to think for a moment, then he reached out and grabbed the crown above his head.
Crown:?
He tried to pull the crown off.
Crown: ????
The fragile crown began to flicker wildly.
It was almost as if he was making a sharp explosion, asking him what he wanted to do.
Amos slowly put his hand down, frowning in confusion: "I can't take it off."

Wandering Star No. 499, Black Street.
This place is close to the former habitat of the Crown Clan of the Saint Cass Empire. Occasionally, warships and airships from the Saint Cass Empire would come to the surrounding area to clear out mutant star beasts and control pollution. Compared with many wandering planets, this place is relatively lively and prosperous.
The Black Street is the trading place of Wandering Star No. 499. Basically everything is sold here, including daily necessities, food, water, energy crystals, etc. There are even some guys who illegally sell mutant star beasts, but the prices are extremely high. There are no laws here, and the rules are made by the most powerful stores in the Black Street.
Therefore, in addition to other interstellar alliances and empires, many cruel underground forces have also emerged in the periphery.
"What? sir, you said you wanted food that was completely uncontaminated, right?"
In the largest shop on the black street at No. 499 Wandering Star.
The store manager with several gold teeth opened his eyes wide in curiosity and looked at the person in front of him.
"You know, this kind of food that is completely uncontaminated is the most difficult to get. At least it costs - this amount!"
The man in front of him was wearing a black military uniform and had a calm expression. He didn't even look surprised when he heard what he said. He didn't look like a refugee, but rather a soldier from a nearby empire.
Amos's military uniform was different from that of ordinary Saint Cass soldiers, or perhaps the Crown Clan was a race that attached great importance to rituals and liked to come up with some tricks in these aspects, so for a moment, the store manager couldn't tell which empire these soldiers were from.
Especially, he was holding a small snow-white ball in his arms. It seemed to be sleeping. Its appearance could not be seen. It was a soft little ball. Only its twitching snow-white ears could be seen. It did not look like an ordinary pet.
Is this - a strange beast?
The store manager thought to himself, but as long as they join the empire or alliance, the country or alliance will formulate laws and regulations and will not allow these strange beasts that may have been contaminated and posed a threat to the country or alliance to enter.
It seems he has to report to his superiors.
As he thought about this, he spoke quickly, "What kind of food do you want? Meat, eggs, milk? Or dry food?"
"Something the cubs can eat."
The black-haired man, Amos, said as he held the sleeping little kid in his arms.
Cub?
The store manager couldn't help but take a look at the little white ball in Amos's arms.
"This kind of thing is not easy to get, but we have a new batch of milk fruits here, brought back from the Shuize Alliance. The pollution has been tested and there is almost no impact. This is the price."
He gestured, and Amos casually threw over an energy crystal core.
The store manager took one look and instantly smiled.
"Come this way, sir. I'll get it for you myself."
The store manager took Amos to one side and took out a breathable small box from a locked cabinet. Inside the box were three milky white fruits with a little pink.
Amos just glanced and nodded.
Amos placed the fruit and the little one in his arms.
Then he saw the little fellow, who had originally had no reaction, suddenly stood up his ears, raised his little head, sniffed around with the tip of his nose, subconsciously held one of the fruits with his little paws and took a bite, then he drowsily opened his pair of big watery amber eyes.
“Ouch~!”
Beep, beep, good job!
The little guy is so cute, a ball of fur with little wings on his back. The fur on his body is not long, only the fur on his neck is a little long and messy. The fur on his head is messy from sleeping. He looks soft and ignorant. He took another bite of the fruit obediently, his eyes lit up, and his little tail swung back and forth happily like a puppy, patting Amos.
He was obviously very hungry. He held the fruit tightly with his two little paws and ate one in one breath with a crunch. He licked his mouth with his pink little tongue, whined, and immediately attacked the next fruit.
Amos looked down at the little guy chewing on the fruit.
Inexplicably - there is a feeling of satisfaction.
Amos looked up expressionlessly—it really was a very confusing feeling.
The people around were speechless.
Especially the store manager, he watched all this in amazement.
Although he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked to see the precious, uncontaminated fruit being eaten by this "little alien beast".
He still couldn't help feeling like he was having a slight heart attack.
Being so arrogant, just to feed this "little strange beast"?
“Are there any other similar foods?”
Amos took a look at how fast the little guy was eating.
The little crown children of this age actually still need to drink milk, but the conditions are limited now.
It was unknown how long it would take to return to Saint Casti Star, bypassing those star beast gathering places and the heavily polluted areas. Amos would usually choose the shortest route without hesitation, but at this moment he had a cub with him.
Amos had no interest in fighting against the mutant star beast legions.
"There may be some in the warehouse. Would you like to take a look? I'll introduce it to you and let you check the goods. But there are all kinds of miscellaneous items in the warehouse."
He glanced at the little cub, feeling a little embarrassed.
It would be difficult for him to explain to his superiors if he let a "little alien beast" in.
"Perhaps you could put him in the little basket? Or on that chair over there? He doesn't look like he'd run around."
Indeed, the little guy looks very small, but he is concentrating on crunching the fruit, and looks so well-behaved and cute.
Hearing their conversation, the little cub raised his little head, with some fruit juice on his lips. He was placed on the cushion of the high stool next to him. In an instant, little Chuzao stood up holding the fruit: "Awoo!"
The soft little white ball looked at Amos with a pair of big misty amber eyes, a little uneasy, ready to rush to his parents at any time.
After all, this is an unfamiliar environment and there are some unfamiliar people outside.
The little guy had been curled up in Amos' arms before, and when he was suddenly put down, he became a little anxious.
"I'll be right back."
Amos had no original plan to come to the Wandering Planet, mainly because the Crown Clan's gradual destruction had attracted countless curious people to investigate, and Amos did not want anyone to explore the situation within the clan.
But isn't the little guy a little timid in these aspects? Although he is just a little cub, he is also a member of the crown clan and carries the honor and responsibility of Saint Cass on his shoulders.
Not to mention that this environment is obviously more suitable for the cubs to eat than a warehouse where contaminated items may be piled up.
Amos soothed it and attached a mental force to the little cub.
That mental power suddenly made the little guy's wings, which had been raised up, slowly droop down again. This feeling was very wonderful for Chu Zao.
The uneasiness of not being able to find a home was soothed, and the little cub blinked his round eyes, holding the uneaten fruit in his arms, and retracted his little paws.
“Awooooo ...
Well, then Zao Zao will wait here for a while.
Just for a moment!
Beep, beep, come back soon.
The little cub looked happy again, its little tail wagging behind it, and it took another bite of the fruit, but this time it looked at Amos after each bite, and then looked at Amos again after taking another bite.
Amos looked at the little guy, and his hard brows softened unconsciously, and his voice softened unconsciously, without him realizing it.
"good."
The little cub watched Amos get up and leave, and curled up obediently. He continued to chew the fruit.
The fruit is delicious and algae likes it!
Baba looks the same as Zao Zao, and Zao Zao likes it too!
The little cub was chewing on his food with a crunching sound, his eyes sparkling, when suddenly there was a loud noise from the other side - "My exotic beast egg is gone! The exotic beast egg I just bought!! Someone must have stolen it!? Shop owner! Shop owner!!"
Oh?
Little Chuzao was startled and stuck his little head out in confusion.
But someone was passing by him in a hurry, and was startled by his sticking his head out. The man stumbled and there was a crisp "pop" sound, which did not attract many people's attention, but the little guy saw that a snow-white, palm-sized egg with intricate patterns fell out of the man's bulging pocket and broke into a puddle.
The man suddenly panicked, and before anyone else could react, he waved his hand and pointed at Xiao Chuzao who was lying on the soft blanket and eating fruit.
"I, I saw an egg fall out from this little alien! Look and see if it's this!"
Empty-headed little Chu Zao:...?
He reacted - no! The little guy puffed up his cheeks.
Tried to argue with a howl - how could you frame Zao Zao!!! Bad guy!!! And you are the little beast!! Your whole family are little beasts! Zao Zao is a little angel!!! The most powerful little angel!!!
