Chapter 149 Chapter 149 I don’t care that much…
After the things behind the pollution were destroyed, the pollution as a whole collapsed and began to shrink at a moderate speed, from spreading to all parts of the interstellar space to the few places where it first appeared.
The overall battle line moved forward, and the Crown Clan's revived habitat planet was reincorporated into the territory of the Saint Cass Empire.
After careful investigation, it is basically confirmed that the pollution will shrink to several fixed areas in about ten to twenty years. Without the control of the forces behind them, these forces have quickly twisted and mutated into a force structure similar to a black hole. It is estimated that there will be certain polluted areas in the future, and strange beasts will still exist, but the situation like this for thousands of years should never appear again.
To achieve this, many forces paid a heavy price.
Even at this moment, the number of casualties on each front is not low. Saint Cass is okay. Although the number of the Crown Clan is quite small, they can still barely protect the entire territory of Saint Cass. The casualties are mainly caused by other allies of Saint Cass when they are resisting the attacks of alien beasts.
But everything was finally settled, and they began to celebrate and clean up the battlefield.
The few thousand years of pollution have also dealt a heavy blow to the Crown Clan.
The earlier Crown Clan were all destroyed, and only a dozen people were left from Desmond's generation. The situation was similar for Clancys, and only Amos' generation had more Crown Clan left, but overall half of them were destroyed and could not return. The number of immortal species was originally controlled by the Crown Clan's habitat or various factors, and the number was not large. This catastrophe wiped out several immortal species and almost affected the Crown Clan.
Fortunately, after the Crown Clan fought in the pollution, the damage to the crown was no longer necessary to repair with algae, and the habitat planet has begun to slowly and gently adjust the mental power of each member of the Crown Clan.
The process of breaking the crown of the Crown Clan came to a halt after Chu Zao arrived, and it was not until this moment that it was truly stopped.
Of course, the injuries of the Crown Clan were also not light.
The most serious case was Chu Zao - he quickly traveled through those space tunnels, and coupled with the late separation, he exhausted his mental energy, causing him to fall into a coma soon after crying, and was sent to the medical room.
But the overall situation is stable. The main problem is that the last blow almost exhausted all of his mental strength.
A day has passed.
At this moment, Saint Cass's barrier defense line.
The barrier at the original location has completely disappeared, and the polluting force is also dissipating rapidly. The remaining low-level monsters with little consciousness can be eliminated by the patrol starship team of the Saint Cass Empire. The entire front line is scattered with Saint Cass patrol teams. They are surrounding a central point. During this process, many starships are rushing towards this center point from afar.
This is the temporary base of His Majesty Amos of the Saint Cass Empire.
As for why not return directly to Saint Casti Star?
Not to mention that Saint Casti Star is too far away from the source of the pollution that is still mutating, just his only cub is currently exhausted and unconscious and is still recuperating.
The entire Crown Clan relaxed a little and were no longer so anxious or stressed.
"The injuries on the front line are not that bad—"
Anya spoke while sitting down with bandages on her hands.
"The overall situation of pollution forces is controllable."
In the conference room, almost all the Crown Clan in this star field rushed over.
"The bodies of Desmond and the others have been repaired, and their crowns are no longer broken, but their overall values are relatively poor. They probably need rehabilitation, and are now in the medical cabin. However, they were the only ones who were revived in that pile of bones. According to them, they are the last conscious members of the tribe in the Dragon Realm."
Frey also spoke.
The ruthless Crown Clan knew what the Angel Source Stone had done. They had just breathed a sigh of relief from the panic of "It's over, Zao Zao has broken the Angel Source Stone, and Zao Zao is going to cry and ignore us." Now they leaned back in their chair with a rare sense of relaxation.
"But the situation is under control. However, there is one thing. Ebenino's eyes should not be able to recover. However, the recovery of his mental strength and the revival of his habitat should make up for this. By the way, regarding the Angel Realm and the Angel Fountain Stone, I think we should have another discussion about the commemoration and other related matters."
The actions of the Angel Source Stone were indeed unexpected for all the Crown Clan.
The same is true for habitat recovery.
"Also, wasn't I a little late on my way back?" Finny, who was sitting on the other side, said casually.
"understand."
"knew--"
"Isn't that normal?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people around him immediately looked at him with understanding expressions.
"Lost, huh?"
"You are just like me. You got lost in a strange place for several days, and you got lost in a familiar place for several hours. And you were the last to arrive."
Fini: ...
Finny choked and just stared at these guys.
Finally he sighed.
"I'm going to go fast this time, okay?"
There was an unhappy look on his baby face.
"But I also accidentally entered another star field channel. The pollution is still receding. The vast interstellar space originally has civilizations and places that we have not yet encountered. I think there must be some other places that have survived the pollution. From various perspectives, we still cannot relax."
"Indeed, we need to further discuss the issues related to the pollution after it subsides. The remaining bases of the Anthem organization have not yet been completely eliminated. However, Shenghua's identity can be confirmed. We will let Saint Cass and his group discuss the specific relevant content and come up with a plan. We also need to be on guard against other gangs like the Anthem organization."
Amos didn't say anything, just listened. After a while, when they finished speaking, they all looked at Amos.
Amos gave a few brief instructions, and the pollution-related issues finally came to an end at this moment.
The meeting was over. It seemed that Lin En and the others had been waiting here for a day, so they left directly and headed for the next target location.
The Dwight family members didn't leave. They were still sitting in the meeting room.
It's just that the atmosphere around me became a lot more relaxed.
"Has Zao Zao's coming-of-age ceremony already passed?"
Fei Man spoke first.
The coming-of-age ceremony of the future king of Saint Cass, which was supposed to be grand, was ultimately not successfully held because of this accident.
"It has been arranged and will be re-arranged when the time comes."
Amos said.
"That's right. It's different from birthdays and the party to prove our identity. The coming-of-age ceremony still needs to be done properly. By the way, how is Zao Zao now?"
Anya also stuck her head out: "Yes, yes, I haven't seen Zao Zao yet."
Talking about this matter, Anya still feels resentful.
This group of people had all seen Chu Zao before he entered the Dragon Clan's territory. Only he, after finally making it to the new place, ended up losing his cub.
Anya arrived shortly before the meeting started today. In order to avoid disturbing Zaozao's rest, Anya did not go to see her before the meeting started.
So he was the only one who hadn't been seen since Zao Zao was lost at the barrier line.
It's so miserable.
His brothers and sisters glanced at him.
Amos over there closes the file on the virtual screen.
"I've been sleeping for a whole day. I should be waking up soon."
It's strange to say.
Anya and the others looked at Amos.
Even after losing his cub so many times, Amos still looked very calm at this moment. He didn't seem as stressed as before, as if he was about to carry the cub in his pocket all the time.
but--
Several people felt the heavy mental power spread by Amos, which was like building a nest, tightly wrapping the starship. If Amos' mental power was not aggressive at the moment, they probably would have difficulty breathing.
Fortunately, the pollution dissipated.
Otherwise, it is hard to tell what Amos, who is still under the aftereffects of stress, can do.
"Let's go check it out later."
Fei Man stood up and looked outside——
Through the windows of the starship, one can see the busy patrol starships coming and going around. The starry sky seems to have been washed and looks brighter.
It makes people feel like they are in another world.
It has been too long a period of suffering.
In the reflection of the special transparent material, the crowns on Fei Man and her relatives behind her were reflected completely and brightly.
*
Another room of the starship.
"So you are now a pure immortal species?"
Peng Liang was approaching Chao Huangmu who was also seriously injured.
After a day of treatment, Chao Huangmu was able to get up and get out of bed with a bandage on his body.
Hearing this, he tilted his head.
"It should be."
He is the only authentic soul clan member left. Due to a series of actions by his mother, he ended up becoming a mixed-blood and lost his memory.
"I see, I see, your bloodline is pure, Akira!"
Peng Liang turned Chao Huangmu's head and exclaimed in amazement.
"If you say so, I will feel balanced if I lose to a big beast like you."
He had said it long ago - how could a normal person be as curvy, strong and energetic as Chao Huangmu? And he was especially good at fighting and grabbing.
Pure blood...?
He smiled brightly at Huang Mu, and veins slowly appeared on his forehead.
Such emphasis doesn't sound like a description of people, but more like a description of cats and dogs.
Yun Songquan had been silent all this time, but after hearing this, he turned his head to look at Peng Liang, then he took a step back silently.
——Don’t let the blood splash on him later.
"Come here, come here, I'll show you something good."
He smiled brightly at Huang Mu and spoke to Peng Liang who was two steps away from him.
"What good stuff?"
Peng Liang approached without any hesitation, looking at Huang Mu's clenched hands.
After a few seconds——"Ouch——!"
He smiled even more brightly at Huang Mu, clenched his fist, and blew on his fist.
"It's the iron fist of justice."
Peng Liang covered his shoulder: ...
"Look, I still remember not to hit someone in the face, right?"
The smile towards Huang Mu became more and more brilliant.
Peng Liang: …………
Yun Songquan also laughed.
Only Peng Liang was jumping on the spot, staring at Chao Huangmu with wide eyes, pointing his finger at Chao Huangmu's face, and yelling "you you you" for a long time, and finally angrily: "Big beast!"
Well, I can't argue with him, and I can't beat him either -
Yun Songquan reached out and grabbed Peng Liang by the collar.
He watched Chao Huangmu get out of bed, stand up, and seemed a little hesitant.
"You're injured pretty badly, why don't you rest for a while?"
Although his mental strength had been tested and his body was slowly recovering, the medical team still concluded that it was best to rest.
"Ah...it's okay."
Chao Huangmu began to look towards the door frequently.
"Do you know how Zao Zao is doing?"
"We were asked to check at the door before. He said he was mentally exhausted and was still resting."
so……
Thinking towards Huang Mu.
He was actually still a little dazed.
If I remember correctly, he actually confessed his feelings before being picked on by the 'God', right?
But there was no time to get a response.
And this was when he lost his memory, when he was so arrogant that he thought he was the best in the world—
How shameful.
The smile on Chao Huangmu's face seemed to freeze slightly.
What should we do now?
Chao Huangmu was a little scratching his head.
but--
He still walked towards the door.
"What are you going to do?"
The two men shifted their gazes over - it is no exaggeration to say that in their eyes, Chao Huangmu was now the representative of a person with a strong will despite a disability.
"I want to go see the algae."
He said to Huang Mu, opened the door and walked out firmly.
Peng Liang and Yun Songquan looked at each other.
Finally, Peng Liang cursed:
"Let's just kill them all. This guy really doesn't leave anyone any chance to survive."
At this moment, Chu Zao in the medical cabin had just experienced a deep and sweet sleep.
He had just woken up and the medical team came in to do a simple check-up. Chu Zao asked his father if they were still in a meeting, and finally he leaned back on the soft pillow to rest. Until this moment, Chu Zao was still a little dazed.
it's all over.
This bumpy journey finally had a good ending.
The oppressive feeling hanging over everyone's head disappeared, and with the sudden relief, it was inevitable that they felt a little helpless about what to do.
Chu Zao tilted his head and lowered his eyes to think.
And - he also remembered belatedly what he had said to Huang Mu before.
For a moment, Chu Zao was a little embarrassed—did he not have time to answer?
What stage are we at now?
Where is Brother Mu?
What does Muge think now?
ah--
Chu Zao suddenly pulled up the quilt and buried himself in it.
After squirming inside for a while, the little face came out again. The boy's cheeks were slightly red because of the action just now, his black hair was messy, and he looked a little angry.
——If Chao Huangmu pretends that he never said this, he will be very angry and sentence him to exile! Exile him for one month!
Then Chu Zao heard footsteps at the door.
Chu Zao turned his head and looked towards the door.
The man did not dare to come in and just hid at the door. After a moment, he slowly poked his head towards Huang Mu's nervous upper face and carefully observed the situation inside with his eyes.
Visible tension.
Chu Zao, who was struggling with her feelings, pulled the quilt and looked him in the eye.
Chu Zao could feel Chao Huangmu suddenly stiffen. There was gauze on his forehead and he looked frightened.
Chu Zao:......
Chao Huangmu:......
Although I still feel a little overwhelmed.
But Chu Zao wanted to laugh at this moment.
Why is he so panicked?
Little Chuzao on the bed in the medical cabin turned aside and turned into a small ball of white fluff. The little ball of fluff waved at him, asking him to come over.
Forget it, let’s talk about other things later. The little white dumpling hugged his plush dragon tail and invited him to come over.
Chao Huangmu understood the meaning and his eyes lit up slightly. A moment later, a pitch-black little dragon used all four legs, as if it had forgotten that it had wings, and climbed up the bed in the medical cabin, carefully curling up in the space left for it by the snow-white fluff.
In turn, the gauze that had just been stuck on his forehead was now successfully stuck on his broken little dragon horn.
At this moment, Chao Huangmu felt much more at ease. He leaned his head a little closer, and then adjusted his posture under the command of the little white ball.
After a while, Chu Zao rested his chin on Chao Huangmu's head, lying there contentedly, ready to continue sleeping.
The scales are icy cool and very comfortable to use as a pillow.
Xiao Chuzao has been a particularly well-behaved and polite child since he was young. He never bullies normal people he knows.
But at this moment, it can be said to be 'bullying'.
Chao Huangmu was pressed down like a pillow, with his chin pressed against the bed and his ears bent back, making his head look a bit triangular. His eyes were looking at the snow-white paw in front of him, and his eyes shrank like the pupils of an animal.
A few seconds later, Chu Zao raised his paw and patted Chao Huangmu's head - he lowered his head and whimpered -
No licking allowed!
After being patted, the black-scaled little dragon retracted its claws, lay down guiltily, and then smacked its lips to feel it.
So, Chu Zao lay in a comfortable position on Chao Huangmu's body, and could see the black dragon's tail behind Chao Huangmu begin to sway -
Dog Dragon is back!
A moment later——
The furry little ears on Chu Zao's head suddenly stood up again, and the little ears trembled, as if listening to something.
Chao Huangmu also raised his head slightly and turned to look towards the door.
Outside the door——
“He should be awake.”
"It's almost time. Hey - Third brother, that's the candy I brought for Zao Zao!"
"It was just a glance - can I take credit for it?"
"Yes, I doubt you meant that."
Fini: ...
Suspicious silence.
"See, that's what you think!!"
"You two are too noisy! If you have any problems, go to the training room. Don't fight in the corridor! Big brother, second brother, you guys take care of these two."
Frey's calm voice followed.
"I don't dare to care, for fear that they will bite me."
Amos seemed to be amused by his dry humor and laughed.
And it was obvious that they had reached the door.
Chu Zao was stunned for a moment, then he looked down at the little black dragon that he was suppressing.
ah……
Then he looked toward the door again.
Amos was walking in the front and had already turned and walked in.
Finny ran the second fastest and was about to reach Chu Zao's bedside.
"Zao Zao, I said it's not just Uncle San's physical problem..."
On the bed, a white plush dragon rests on a black scaly dragon, their movements natural and intimate.
It wasn't the kind of polite but distant feeling that Xiao Chuzao usually had when interacting with others.
The white furry ball even looked like it was bullying the little black dragon.
Finney's voice stopped abruptly.
What?
His eyes widened.
What's this?
Several people behind him also froze as they watched this scene.
It feels a bit weird.
And it's very subtle.
The next second, Chu Zao turned back.
The little black dragon also flew up and landed beside the bed, turning into a tall young man.
Chao Huangmu looked at the Crown Clan members who looked dazed, and he paused - it was really strange, and he felt strangely guilty.
"Your Majesty Amos."
He bowed slightly to Huang Mu and spoke.
AMOS: ...
"dad?"
Chu Zao looked up at Amos, and he got out of bed as well. The wounds on his body had almost healed - mainly the more serious wounds he had suffered previously, which the Angel Fountain Stone had almost healed for him before he left.
"Where are Great Grandfather and the others?"
"He's still recuperating. He'll be able to come out of the medical cabin in two days. But Zao Zao, you can go check it out later—"
As Amos spoke, his eyes kept falling on Chao Huangmu.
The eyes of the other Crown Clan members were fixed on Chao Huangmu.
Zhao Huangmu stood there smiling, not moving.
In the end, it was Amos who first looked away.
To be honest, ever since Amos brought back his own cub and this Soul Clan kid, I had a subtle ominous premonition.
But Chu Zao has already passed the coming-of-age ceremony, and they cannot interfere too much in what he does or how he does it.
Yes, we should not interfere too much, nor should we impose restrictions...
Not to mention, Zao Zao hasn’t even introduced...her partner, boyfriend, or anything like that yet.
Amos heard a soft snap—as if someone had pinched a finger bone behind him.
But after a while, Chao Huangmu was taken away by the medical team members. This kid still needs to have a good rest.
The crown people gathered around and talked to the little guy.
There was nothing unusual about the rest.
Chu Zao didn't know how to explain it for a moment - it was so strange, he was already an adult, but it felt like he was in a premature love relationship without his parents' knowledge.
Chu Zao shook his head, the crown on his head flickered, he put these things aside and continued speaking.
Amos and the others listened to the little fellow's ideas - he wanted to make a monument to Saint Cass and also a monument to the angels.
They had already planned for this.
"The coming-of-age ceremony will be held in a month," Amos sat on the bedside, reached out his hand, and patted Chu Zao's little head. There was nothing wrong on the surface. "Desmond and the others have returned. They can talk normally now. They are in the medical room B672. You can visit them anytime."
Chu Zao nodded his little head.
"And Hull has sent over new homework for you to complete by then."
Chu Zao instinctively nodded his little head again, but saw Amos smiled. He hugged his cub and patted the cub's little head.
"But now that the pollution is over, I can be lazy once in a while."
"Yeah, sometimes I get lazy, like me - I get lazy when the pollution is not over."
"That's because my second and third brothers are here, and you're not very serious usually."
Fini: ...
"What's wrong with me?"
Chu Zao added in a low voice: "It's not serious anywhere."
The Crown Clan members behind him nodded in agreement and laughed.
"Hey, you guys!!"
Amos glanced at the time and patted Chu Zao on the head.
"Okay, take a rest. Things are almost over. We will return to Emperor Star in a few days."
"Uh-huh."
Chu Zao nodded his little head.
It just so happened that he missed home, other people, and Butler Mori and so on.
Leave the medical room.
The members of the Crown Clan, who had been somewhat noisy just now, all had gloomy faces.
"That Soul Clan kid—"
Finney seemed to grit his teeth.
"Could this be the partner that Zao Zao has set his eyes on? Hey, hey, hey, I've never heard of such a thing before."
At this moment, Finny was in the same mental state as Ebenino did back then.
"Of course, we shouldn't interfere with the choices made by algae."
Frey raised his hand, signaling Finny to calm down.
Then he spoke again.
"But Zao Zao has just reached adulthood—"
"To some extent, it's not unacceptable..." Anya also spoke up, then he grabbed a handful of hair, "But Zao Zao has just come of age-"
And the situation just now...
All this happened unexpectedly, and all the crown family members were a little overwhelmed.
He looked at Amos.
"Brother, why didn't you react?"
Amos's tone was calm.
"We should not restrict Zao Zao's contact and interaction with other people, including her partner."
Such a calm tone?
Anya tried hard to see Amos's expression.
"Really?"
Amos had a blank expression on his face as he held the instrument in his hand, the tiny parts making a clacking sound.
"real."
Other crown families: ...
Shocked by the black energy that was about to materialize on Amos' body, that little bit of broken defense seemed so insignificant at this moment.
They took two steps back.
Really?
But why do you look like your defense is broken?
That instrument didn't provoke you...
"But..." Fei Man tilted her head, "There is no one left in the Soul Clan."
They looked at Fei Man.
Fei Man raised her hand and said, "Chao Huangmu's nationality is Saint Cass. If he is Zao Zao's partner, he is marrying into the family. If you think about it this way, it seems okay. Besides, Zao Zao doesn't have any Crown Clan playmates of the same age."
Although Fei Man was also frustrated for a moment, but when she thought about it carefully, there were still many topics that the little guy was not suitable to talk about with the elders. Isn't Chu Zao's happiness the first priority?
"But I can raise algae for my whole life."
Amos finally spoke his mind.
Finally, he turned his head a little annoyed.
It's like suddenly finding out that the sweet cabbage you raised with so much effort has been taken away from you without any warning.
Amos also had a rare experience.
At this moment, Amos is like Ebenino hitting a powder keg.
It feels like he's going to explode if he gets a little stimulation.
It can be seen that Amos is in a very bad mood, almost visible to the naked eye.
But marrying into the family——
Okay.
Of course, Zaozao can do whatever she wants, and it should be decided by Zaozao herself.
And judging from the situation, it doesn't seem like there are signs of this happening too early, so there's no need to pay too much attention to it now. It's a very normal thing. After growing up, Zao Zao already has a lot of personal space, so he doesn't need to pay too much attention to it...
…
…………
Marry into the wife's family...
Ah——that’s fine.
