Rong Zhen died unexpectedly and was bound to a small, newly-released system. In their rookie phase, the person and the system couldn't snag any good missions, so they could only go to novel wor...
Chapter 252: The baby is coming
Unfortunately, the result was not what he expected.
Even if the issue of life span no longer existed, Rongzhen had no intention of going to the forest with them to reconcile with Allen.
Because humans and elves have racial differences in addition to lifespan, their union is not blessed by the gods, so they cannot have offspring.
Rongzhen's mission requires her descendants to inherit the farm, and she cannot give up her mission for Allen.
That would be too unfair to the original owner.
As she had promised when she left, Alia stayed at Will Farm for three days. She played and had fun with Rongzhen every day and soon swept away the sadness in her eyes.
Abel achieved his goal and said goodbye to Rongzhen.
Rongzhen held a barbecue party to see them off, but ended up vomiting while eating the grilled fish.
Mary thought there was something wrong with the grilled fish, but Rongzhen knew it was not the case.
She touched her belly, feeling a little bit unbelievable.
Isn't it said that elves and humans are reproductively isolated, making it difficult for them to conceive? Why is she pregnant now? Is it because Alan is disabled?
So after the barbecue, while taking a farewell walk, Rong Zhen asked Alia, "Is it true that humans and elves can't have children? Have there been any special cases?"
She was very sure that Alan was the only boyfriend she had in her life, and if the pregnancy was true, it was definitely his.
Arya shook her head. "I've heard of elves and other races marrying together, but never half-elves."
Therefore, if another race combines with an elf, they must be prepared for the possibility of no offspring.
"But how could Allen and I..." Rong Zhen murmured in confusion, and her hand subconsciously fell to her lower abdomen.
Alia's gaze shifted over, and she was stunned as she realized something. She couldn't help but widen her eyes: "You, you are pregnant with Allen's baby??"
How is this possible? ! !
Regardless of whether it is possible or not, the fact is that Rongzhen is really pregnant.
Having experienced pregnancy several times, she would not mistake the body's reaction after pregnancy.
Alia was completely confused and hurried to Abel for help. What should a human do if she gets pregnant with an elf's child?
What else can I do? I can just go back with them and ask the officer, and reunite the child's mother and father. I can't just abort him. It's a little life, a miracle of the union of human and elf.
Rongzhen had to go now even if she didn't want to. Besides, she might have the urge to go, but it was suppressed by her reason.
Now that she had a legitimate reason to go find Allen, she naturally wouldn't refuse.
When people talked about the reasons for breaking reproductive isolation and getting pregnant, everyone had their own guesses.
Alia said it must be a gift from God, the forest goddess' compensation for Alan's congenital developmental deficiencies, allowing him to look like a human while also possessing the ability to bear children with humans.
This explains why his name does not appear on the palace roster, because in the eyes of the forest goddess, Alan is already considered a human being, not an elf.
Abel also agreed that it was because of Allen's congenital disability that he had the ability to mate with humans and produce offspring, but he did not agree with the statement that he was human.
Because Rong Zhen told them about the process of confirming Allen's elf identity when Officer Achir came to capture him. Allen now looks like a human, but his inner structure is still an elf, so he still belongs to the elf race.
A light bulb went off in Arya's head. "Do you think he could be a half-elf?"
Humanoid in appearance, elf at heart, is this what the legendary half-elf is like?
Abel said it was possible, but: "We have witnessed with our own eyes that Allen was indeed hatched from the fruit conceived by the mother tree." He was not born from elves or other races.
"It could also be a genetic mutation." Rong Zhen rode on Alia's Bambi's back and silently expressed his opinion.
The two elves looked confused when they heard this, probably because they didn't understand what gene mutation was.
Rongzhen didn't explain too much, in fact she was still confused.
Who knows why? If you can’t figure it out, leave it to the professionals… well, let the professionals take care of the worries.
When Officer Achir received this message from the elves, he thought Abel was joking with him. How could an elf and a human give birth to a baby? This is truly an absurd story, hahahaha, hahaha, haha...
Facing Abel's serious expression, Archer finally couldn't laugh anymore and said in surprise, "Someone is really pregnant with an elf's child?!"
Abel nodded, stepped aside, and invited Rongzhen, who had been waiting outside the door with Alia, to come in.
Rongzhen waved to Aqier and said hello: "Hi, Mr. Aqier, we meet again. How is Alan?"
Archer still remembered her, and when he heard her mention Alan, an unlikely possibility suddenly popped up in his mind.
Alia came in holding Rongzhen's arm, acting more cautiously than her, and confirmed Archer's guess: "Jenny is pregnant with Allen's baby."
"Impossible!" Archer shook his head with certainty, and thought that Rong Zhen had bewitched the two elves to help her commit fraud.
How could a human possibly conceive an elf's child? Absolutely impossible.
Rongzhen smiled slightly: "The world is so big, nothing is impossible."
Alia agreed: "Achir, think about it, if this is a gift from the gods, if it is the compensation of the forest goddess to Allen, doesn't it seem possible?"
Abel nodded. "Given Allen's natural development into a humanoid figure, it's not impossible for him to fall in love with Miss Jenny and have children with her."
"So I'm the only one who's ignorant?" Seeing that both of them spoke up to defend Rong Zhen, Archer almost laughed out of anger and asked his men to call Alan over immediately.
As a result, the subordinates went back and reported: "Alan is staying in the solitary confinement room and refuses to come out."
Alia and Abel were surprised: "Did you put Allen in solitary confinement?"
"He secretly married a human, shouldn't he be locked up?" Archer said angrily, and then asked his subordinate Alan why he refused to come out and what he was doing in the confinement room.
The subordinate replied: "Self-isolation."
Aqir choked.
Rongzhen couldn't help but laugh and said on Allen's behalf, "Actually, he and I aren't married yet, so it can't be considered an illicit marriage."
"You two already have children, and you still don't admit it?" Archer retorted subconsciously, then met three pairs of smiling eyes.
Didn’t you just say it was impossible, but now you’re confirming the baby’s identity?
Archer glared at them and led the way to find Allen himself.
The confinement room is located in a tree house in a corner of the palace. The tree house is very small and is surrounded by tree trunks on all sides. There are no windows facing the outside world, only a small window on the wooden door for delivering food and water.
According to Archer, Alan was imprisoned here the day he was brought back.
Rongzhen couldn't imagine how uncomfortable it would be for that fragile and sensitive guy to stay in such a dark and narrow space.
"Alan, come out." Archer opened the door and stood at the door shouting into the dark confinement room.
There was no response from inside, as if there was no elf.
Until Rongzhen called out uncertainly, "Alan?"
A slight sound was heard from the confinement room, proving that Alan was indeed inside, but he ignored the calls from outside.
Archer wondered: "Is he really autistic?" He didn't do anything to this guy.
He asked his elf to bring a firefly lamp, and shone it inside the confinement room at the door. He found a black shadow curled up in the corner, motionless.
Rongzhen also saw it and couldn't help but take a step forward and shout again: "Alan? Is that you? I'm here to see you."
The black shadow moved when he heard her voice, then curled himself up again and remained motionless again. He probably thought it was an illusion.
Alia felt very sad and wanted to say something, but Abel shook his head and pulled her away.
When Archer saw them leave, he told Rongzhen that he needed to go look through the Elf Library to find out what was going on with her.
It's true that he wants to investigate the problem, and it's also true that he wants to give Rongzhen and Allen some space to get along.
Rong Zhen thanked him and said, "Then go ahead and do your work. I'll try to persuade him."
Archer looked worriedly at the motionless shadows in the confinement room, sighed, and left with his men.
Rongzhen was the only one left at the scene. She walked in with a firefly lantern, squatted beside the dark figure, patted him and whispered, "Alan, the baby and I are here to take you home. Aren't you happy?"
"Baby?" The shadow group finally responded in a muffled voice.
Rongzhen took his hand and placed it on her belly, smiling and saying, "Yes, it's a baby, our baby. Do you like it?"
The shadow group suddenly burst into tears and sobbed, "It's really an illusion again. Elves and humans can't have babies."
Rong Zhen's eyes were wet. She forcefully pulled him around to face her, held up his pale, haggard face, and ordered, "Then open your eyes and see if I'm real or fake."
Allen shook his head with tears in his eyes: "No, as soon as I open my eyes, you will be gone."
"How about this?" Rongzhen reached out and pinched the soft flesh on his waist, giving him a loving punishment like she did when they were most intimate before.
Alan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist and opened his eyes suddenly. He saw the person he had been thinking about day and night right in front of him, so close to him, and his warm breath was clearly blowing on his face.
It was real, not an illusion, she really came to find him!
"Jenny!" Alan was surprised and wanted to rush towards Rongzhen, but she blocked him with her chest.
Rongzhen pretended to be disgusted and said, "How long has it been since you last showered? And have you forgotten what I just told you? We have a baby now, so you can't just throw yourself on me like before."
Allen was happy, shy and frightened at the same time, not knowing how to react. He stood there stiffly, at a loss, letting Rongzhen do whatever she wanted, his eyes fixed on her for a while, then on her lower abdomen.
Compared to the surprise and suspicion of Achir and others, he was the elf who accepted the fact that he and his loved one could have offspring the fastest.
The answer is true love is invincible, given by God, he and Rong Zhen are awesome.
After hearing the explanation he gave after coming out, Archer was speechless. He turned around and continued to dive into the ocean of information left by the elves' ancestors, trying to find the root cause or precedent of this incident.
However, it was of no use. Just like he couldn't find out why Alan was born with a disability and couldn't even be listed in the elf roster, this time Archer couldn't find out why he could have children with humans.
An elf who had lived long enough, and was about to return to the mother tree and begin a new cycle of reincarnation, speculated, "If there's no other reason, then it's probably just that they possessed enough luck, a combination that even the gods couldn't help but notice. When they closed a door for them, they also left a window open."
How else can it be explained?
