Chapter 234: Amethyst Ore
Anno got up and went to the bathroom to wash up, with Secris following beside her, carefully preparing all her toiletries.
She opened the mouthwash and poured it into her mouth, while Secris filled a glass of water and handed it to her.
Her daily life was taken care of by her family members, who prepared all her daily necessities. They knew what she liked to use, and even prepared several flavors of mouthwash that she liked.
After she rinsed her mouth, Secris handed her a warm, damp cloth.
After she took the handkerchief, he took a comb and helped her comb her somewhat messy long hair.
After she washed her face, Secris asked her, "Your Highness, we have prepared some gold sand for you. Would you like to soak in it for a while?"
After saying that, Secris tapped the personal terminal on his wrist and turned on the bathtub.
Following Secris's gaze, Anno saw a spacious bathroom with an egg-shaped bathtub floating on the floor, filled with gold dust.
The golden sand shimmered with tiny lights and emitted a unique scent that only the Zerg could detect. It was like sunshine and dew, warm and comforting, with a faint fragrance that would intoxicate Firefly.
Anno's eyes lit up when he saw the golden sand.
The Firefly loves to soak in gold sand and roll around in piles of it. This is a different habit brought about by the genes of different branches of the Zerg. For the Firefly, gold sand is like how other branches of the Zerg like to use minerals to maintain their exoskeletons. This is also why the Fire Seed of the North River was cultivated with gold sand in the past.
Gold sand is actually a type of mineral. It's not that only gold sand jellyfish produce it; rather, the existence of gold sand jellyfish is the prerequisite for the existence of gold sand ore.
The golden sand contains a substance that Ying Shuo likes. Soaking in it is like basking in the sun, making Ying Shuo feel warm and comfortable.
She had been busy running around, and was thinking about when she could soak in the golden sand again, otherwise she felt a little uncomfortable. In her recovered memory, there was only the time when Bazel picked her up and she soaked in the golden sand for three years.
For those three years, she was a weak spark, and the gold that Bazel painstakingly obtained was only enough to sustain her basic physical growth.
Now, she has no shortage of these gold dusts. The Zerg have habitats for gold dust jellyfish. In addition to the gold dust produced by the gold dust jellyfish, many Zerg planets also produce a mineral called gold dust stone, and these gold dusts contain even stronger energy.
Within the area of the gold sand ore deposit, there is a habitat for gold sand jellyfish. All the creatures in this area are affected by the gold sand ore deposit and will produce gold sand to varying degrees.
Within the territory of the Zerg's Glowing Branch, there is also a sea of golden sands where Glowings can swim freely.
Caesar is still under punishment. Other members of his family with spatial abilities cannot open long-distance spatial portals like Caesar. To be able to jump across star systems, one's spatial ability must be at least SS-level.
Currently, only Caesar and Hibia, the Lord of the Styx Galaxy, are known to have reached SS-level or higher.
Now that Hibia is by Anaya's side and holds an important position, she can't just call him over unless it's something important.
Secris and his men knew the habits of Firefly very well, and specially transported her from the Sivitro system.
The Northern River system also has gold dust, but it's not as good as the Zerg's. What you give Your Highness must be the best.
Upon seeing the warm and cozy golden sand, Anno took off her pajamas, fully transformed into her original form, and floated into the bathtub.
Enveloped in soft, delicate golden sand, Anno sighed comfortably, her tentacles drooping limply at the edge of the bathtub.
Secris walked to the bathtub, squatted down, crushed an energy ore, and soaked it in the gold sand.
Anno felt a surge of energy flowing into her body and instantly opened her eyes.
"Secris, where did you get this energy ore from?"
The Zerg have many types of energy ore, and the energy they store varies. The energy stone that Secris put in the bathtub is called Amethyst Ore, which can release a large amount of energy instantly, and is only used in combat.
They don't usually use this kind of energy mineral; they supplement it slowly to avoid overexerting their bodies.
But she needs amethyst ore now because she used primal energy in a parallel universe.
Although it may not be apparent on the surface, the King Worm's primal energy is limited and needs to be replenished once it's used up.
If you use too much of your original energy, your body will shrink like it did before.
She was afraid her mother would worry, so she didn't dare to take the energy ore, nor could she tell her relatives directly. If she did, they wouldn't be able to keep it from her. Her mother would immediately know in her consciousness network that she could use the ore she carried to slowly replenish her energy, and she would recover in a while.
"Your Highness, rest assured, I have some amethyst ore here. It's leftover supplies from the battle, and Her Majesty the Queen won't know."
Cyrus then took out a piece of amethyst ore, crushed it forcefully, and mixed it into the gold sand.
Anno looked at him, trying to recall the events in her mind. She vaguely remembered that when she came back last night, she had talked to Cecil for a long time.
like......
It looks like she cried?
Anno: "Did I tell you that?"
Secris: "Yes, Your Highness."
Secris glanced at her, then quickly lowered his eyes again.
Yesterday, after he brought Anuo back to the room, Anuo was still excited and pulled him and Bai Yan to drink.
Obsidian was already quite drunk, but Anno's last bottle of wine completely knocked him out.
After drinking for a while, Anno suddenly sent Poponia and White Flame back to her room, and pulled Secris aside to talk about her experience of falling into a parallel universe.
Secris listened patiently from the side; he actually knew about what had happened to Anno and the others in the parallel universe.
But when he heard about Mingxi, Caesar's alter ego in a parallel universe, his brows gradually furrowed.
The more I listened, the more something seemed off.
As soon as Caesar returned, he was punished and sent to the bottom of the mine. As the Queen Insect, Anno was also able to seal his consciousness.
Therefore, the other family members were unaware of the details of her relationship with Mingxi.
When Cyrus heard that Mingxi had taken her to an island with a shielded magnetic field, her consciousness had actually returned to the main body without her knowledge. After she left, the main body took her to Claw Star, its face so cold it was as if ice crystals were about to fall off.
He knew Caesar was always rebellious and audacious, but he never expected that the Caesar in the parallel universe would dare to be so defiant.
Although it wasn't Caesar from this timeline who did it, they were the same.
In this timeline, Caesar also did many things that caused trouble.
When Secris heard Anno mention that Mingxi was injured and her spinal whip was broken, and that she used her primal energy to restore his broken spinal whip, he was so shocked that he stood up from the sofa.
Seeing Cecil's reaction, Anno's lips trembled and her eyes immediately filled with tears.
"Is it very serious...?"
Seeing her like this, Secris immediately knelt down in front of her and comforted her, "Your Highness, don't cry, I'll go get you an energy stone to restore you right away."
Anno threw herself into Secris's arms and started crying.
"Waaaaah, if Mother knew I used primal energy, she would be furious."
When she used her primal energy, she appeared stable, but she was actually a little flustered inside.
She had only recently regained her core, and her original energy had barely recovered to normal levels. This was one of the reasons her mother didn't want her to go to the battlefield—she was afraid she would use her original energy.
This was the only strict requirement Sevier had for Anno: as long as she and Augsis were around, Anno would never need to use her own primal energy.
That's why Anuo panicked and didn't dare let her know.
Seeing Anno hugging him and crying, Secris felt an overwhelming pang of heartache and patted her back to comfort her, saying, "Your Highness, don't be afraid. Only I know that."
Anuo sobbed, "Don't tell Mother."
Secris: "Okay, I won't say."
Anno: "If you tell me, I'll never talk to you again."
Secris: "Your Highness, rest assured, I would never tell, even if you killed me."
Anno then stopped crying and smiled. She let go of Cecil and cupped Cecil's face, saying, "I know you're the best."
With that, a crisp sound rang out as a wet kiss landed on Secris's face.
Secris took a deep breath and froze completely in place.
Even if the Queen found out about this one kiss and beat him to death, he would be content.
After Anno finished kissing him, he kept rubbing against Cecil's neck like a fluffy little animal.
Secris remained motionless, like a statue, allowing Anno to do as he pleased, completely afraid to move.
After Anno's alcohol wore off and he started to feel sleepy, he pulled Secris to lie on the bed for a while, talking to himself as he drifted off to sleep.
