The Second Prince arrived quickly; he came in person and observed that the Zerg-infested Zerg Star, which had been teeming with Zerg not long ago, was now almost entirely devoid of them.
Feng Yuanchu felt a sense of pride and satisfaction; he truly lived up to his reputation as the boss.
Feng Yuan Chu soon met Lu Man Man. When he saw Hua Qing Mo, his eyes darkened slightly. The boss had actually found him.
But he quickly smiled and nodded, "There are rumors that you have died a heroic death, I didn't expect you to still be alive, it's a pleasure to see you."
Hua Qingmo smiled brightly: "I have Lady Luck protecting me, so I have nothing to fear."
As she spoke, Hua Qingmo looked at Lu Manman with an adoring expression.
Feng Yuan Chu didn't reply. After greeting everyone, he looked at the dark matter crystals all over the ground and looked at Lu Manman with a puzzled expression. "Boss, is the major discovery you mentioned these dark matter crystals?"
Lu Manman nodded, having already obtained Qi Xiuyuan and Hua Qingmo's consent beforehand, and then told Feng Yuanchu everything that had happened.
This… Feng Yuanchu felt his worldview being reshaped. He looked at the mutated tiger, then at the flowering tree, and then at the majestic mutated beasts not far away.
Finally, looking at the long road ahead, it seems that "this dark matter crystal not only does not cause death, but can also enable biological evolution."
Lu Manman nodded, "Very likely."
Qi Xiuyuan: ...If he can't revert to human form, he doesn't consider it an evolution.
Hua Qingmo also said, "I also tend to think that's the case."
“We’ll take it back and show it to Huang Yuecheng.”
Feng Yuanchu took out a large amount of spatial equipment that Lu Manman had asked him to bring, and filled most of the dark matter crystals here with it. This was something that Hua Qingmo and the mutated beast had agreed upon beforehand.
The group boarded Feng Yuanchu's spaceship and headed towards Kaiping Star.
They still monopolized the top floor.
Hua Qingmo found Feng Yuanchu, "I hope you can help me send some information to the Federation..."
Feng Yuanchu agreed and, as Hua Qingmo requested, gave a portion of the dark matter crystal to Hua's father and also helped Hua Qingmo record a video.
In the video, Hua Qingmo told her father that the reason for the rise of the Zerg Queen was because she ate dark matter crystals, and that she herself seemed to have become a more powerful mutated fox because of this.
On the way to Kaiping Star, Qi Xiuyuan realized that apart from the long journey, no one could understand his howling.
Fortunately, by simply listening to them talk, Feng Yuan Chu learned quite a bit. He and Hua Qing Mo gained a more detailed understanding of the matter, and he began to take the dark matter crystals more seriously.
Lu Manman, having arrived not long ago, abandoned the others and stayed in the room that Feng Yuanchu had prepared beforehand.
The pink and cute room reignited Lu Manman's girlish heart. It has to be said, Feng Yuanchu really understands her own aesthetic.
"System, system, come out! I've completed the mission, now it's your turn to fulfill your promise."
This time, the system surprisingly didn't back down. "Hmm! Well done. The reward will arrive on time one year from now."
The road ahead is long: ...
"This reward has a delay? System, that's not right of you..."
Before Lu Manman could finish speaking, the system said in a cold, childlike voice, "Then let's make it two years."
Lu Manman: "...Actually, I think a year is not bad, let's make it a year, I like it very much."
Lu Manman smiled on the surface, but in her heart she was frantically chanting the word "patience," afraid that she might blurt out some truth and be sentenced to another three or four years.
The task is now complete; it's time to give out the rewards.
The system smugly replied, "Hmph!"
Lu Manman: "Then it's settled, okay? Just one year, no changes allowed, or I'll be a puppy."
The system did not respond.
Lu Manman: "System, are you still there? You promised a year... System? System Master?"
After receiving no response for a long time, Lu Manman knew it had run away again, but... was it a year or two?
Lu Manman shed tears of deep regret.
Kaiping Star
The grandfathers tirelessly prepared delicious food, knowing that the children loved it. The children always enjoyed the food they made according to ancient recipes.
Shi Tu was drying the freshly made vermicelli, saying, "I wonder how the child is doing now, and whether the food we brought for her is enough."
Feng Zhi helped tidy up the seals, thinking that there was enough food for all of them to eat for at least a year. "It's only been a few days now, it's definitely enough."
Zhong Lizhong slurped up the freshly made snail rice noodles, saying, "This stuff doesn't smell very appetizing, but it tastes really good. It's a pity the kids can't come and try it right away."
Qu Fu smiled helplessly: "Isn't this you? You seem to be enjoying yourself. But I wonder if the child will encounter any danger while he's out there alone."
Everyone is very worried about this, as the incident involving Hua Qingmo is still fresh in everyone's mind.
Gu Lin was fiddling with the bamboo shoots. "The child is capable, he'll be fine, I believe in him."
Thinking of Lu Manman's abilities, everyone felt a little relieved, but they still missed her, since it was the first time they were not on the same planet as their child.
Because of their longing for Luman, the grandfathers ate snail rice noodles for several days, filled with resentment, just as Luman had been longing for them.
Zhong Lizhong pointed to the sky, his face beaming with excitement, "Look, it's a spaceship!"
Wait, why is it so quiet?
Zhong Lizhong turned around, but there was no one else in sight, only an empty bowl of snail rice noodles and an empty stool.
These guys...
"Brothers, wait for me!"
When Zhong Lizhong arrived at the spaceship's docking point, the others were already excitedly waiting there.
Before Zhong Lizhong could question her, Lu Manman emerged from the spaceship and ran toward them.
"Grandpas, I, Hu Hansan, am back again."
Hu Hansan, isn't his real name Lu Manman? Oh well, it's good that the children are back.
Lu Manman gave everyone a big bear hug, but soon she noticed something was wrong—that familiar stench…
Lu Manman looked at everyone's excited faces, "Could it be..."
Gu Lin tapped Lu Manman's forehead. "Your nose is still the best. We've already made the snail rice noodles you were talking about. Come on, I'll take you to eat them now."
As they were talking, the group was about to lead Lu Manman away.
Chen Hua, however, spotted a familiar figure: "Hua Wa Zi!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked over and indeed saw Hua Qingmo, who had left without saying goodbye.
At this moment, he and the Second Prince were watching with smiles as Lu Manman and her grandfathers reunited.
Seeing that they had finally caught up, Hua Qingmo couldn't wait to step forward and hug everyone.
"I'm back. I'm sorry for making you worry."
Qi Chao patted Hua Qingmo on the shoulder, "You child, it's good that you're back. In the future, please don't hide anything from us anymore. We can handle it."
Hua Qingmo smiled obediently, "Okay! I'll listen to my grandfathers."
The second prince smiled as he watched this harmonious scene, a touch of envy creeping into his heart.
If people who are not related by blood can be so harmonious and loving, then what about myself...?
