Since the banquet was private, the attendees were either rich or noble. Zhong Qing had already said that he would make the news public in a while, which meant that the news would only stay with them, and no one would mess with this top figure in the Federation. Therefore, the news that Zhong Qing had a fiancé did not spread to the ears of the people in the Federation. Therefore, He Mo, who was treating the abused monsters with the medical team, did not know that he had been unilaterally stamped out by someone.
It was late at night and most of the lights in the Zhong family mansion had been turned off. Everyone who had attended the banquet had left.
"Mother, I will bring him back when the time is right." Zhong Qing said helplessly. Ever since he announced that he had a fiancé, his mother had been trying to dig out information about Xiao Mo with the determination to get to the bottom of it.
He couldn't tell his mother directly that he was just having a one-sided love for her and that she didn't know his feelings yet.
Lan Yu sat down somewhat unhappily. "Look at you, you're already so old. Let's not talk about others for now. Just look at Adjutant Cheng, who's about the same age as you. He got married five years ago and already has two children. I'm not urging you to have children, but you should at least have someone by your side who can understand you and care for you..."
Adjutant Cheng: ??? You're blaming me again...
"Mother, I will definitely bring him back after a while." Zhong Qing couldn't help but interrupt his mother, his expression quite depressed. He didn't expect that his mother would nag even more after not seeing her for a while. However, his disappearance before really made his mother worried for a long time, and she cried all day long. When he just came back, she hugged him and cried for a whole day. Thinking of this, Zhong Qing secretly thought that when he returned to the Fifth Legion, he could speed up the pace of pursuing Xiao Mo.
"You said so." Lan Yu laughed excitedly and hurriedly instructed her son: "Don't have a cold face all day long. Be gentle to him. If you like him, you should treat him well. By the way, when you bring him back, tell me in advance. Tell me what he likes to eat and I will ask the kitchen to prepare it..."
Lan Yu rambled on and on for a long time. She knew her son well. He didn't like to smile and always had a cold face. He had been like a little adult since he was young. It was okay for him to be indifferent to others, but he couldn't be like that to his partner. He had to pamper her and be gentle to hold his partner's heart firmly. She had to give her son a few more instructions. He couldn't scare away the daughter-in-law she had been waiting for so long, otherwise she would not agree.
After finally coaxing his mother away, Zhong Qing finished his official business and lay on the bed. Thinking of the child his mother mentioned, ripples appeared in his calm eyes. If it was his and Xiao Mo's child, it would definitely be a cute child. He would like it regardless of gender. He/she would have big, bright and warm eyes like Xiao Mo, and a delicate and small face. He would definitely do his best to protect them.
Thinking of this, Zhong Qing gently turned on the light brain and played the surveillance video that he had watched countless times. The young man's familiar frowns and smiles all touched his heart, like a small hook, tickling his heart.
After watching for a long time, Zhong Qing reluctantly turned off the video, covered himself with the quilt and closed his eyes. His long eyelashes trembled slightly. It was almost time. In three days, the person behind the scenes would be caught, and then Xiao Mo would be safe.
Second Medical Corps of the Fifth Corps.
Qiu Jing slumped over the table without any dignity: "Finally free!"
He Mo walked in and poured her a glass of boiled water, his eyebrows curved: "The hard work of the past few days is worth it, those strange beasts recovered very quickly."
"Xiao Mo, you're so thoughtful." Qiu Jing grabbed the boiled water and gulped down most of it before saying with some regret, "What a pity! Several other beasts' abilities have been wasted. Even the magical care solution is useless."
Thinking of this, He Mo felt a little sad: "They are too badly injured, there is really no way to repair them."
These injured beasts were very resistant to their treatment at first, but later when they realized that the medical team was treating them, they became very well behaved. Even when they felt pain during the treatment, they did not cry out or scream. This was especially true for the pangolin, which had all its scales plucked out by the abuser. Later, when they were applying care solution, its limbs were twitching in pain, but it still lay quietly and did not cause them any trouble.
This pangolin was also the most seriously injured one. Its scales were plucked out, its limbs were broken, and its proud supernatural powers also disappeared along with the scales. Even with the help of the power of the stars, its limbs could be restored to their original state, but its scales were related to its supernatural powers. Its current supernatural powers could not even penetrate a thin layer of soil, let alone travel several meters underground.
After drinking the last bit of water, Qiu Jing, who had just been saying she was exhausted, rushed to the ward again. When she thought of the miserable condition of those strange beasts, she couldn't stop working. Even if the magical care fluid couldn't help them recover their abilities, it could still be of some help to them. Her nursing knowledge couldn't help them, but she could still do a simple job of applying the fluid.
He Mo poured himself a glass of water, frowning slightly. Perhaps he could go to the Forest of Exotic Beasts with Xiao Ba to look for some elixirs to treat the exotic beasts whose powers could not be restored. Although it would be a little difficult to find, he could always find some. If he could treat as many as possible, it would be a good thing. After all, Xiao Ba was so powerful that he could go to most places in the Forest of Exotic Beasts.
He Mo was thinking silently. At this moment, he suddenly felt something. His fingertips paused suddenly. He put down the water cup and walked hurriedly outside. The golden lion egg actually broke out of the shell at this time.
He hurried back to the dormitory. At this time, his room was already shrouded in a thick golden light, which was dazzling. In the center of the golden light, there was a small egg shaking vigorously, as if a little guy could be seen inside trying desperately to break the shackles and get out of the egg.
Seeing that the little guy was doing well, He Mo felt relieved. The golden lion egg would be able to hatch after absorbing enough energy. He didn't expect that he was still wondering when the atavistic golden lion would be able to hatch some time ago, but today it gave him such a big surprise.
The golden lion egg was incredibly strong. The little guy rammed it for a long time but couldn't break it even a little. He seemed a little tired, so he calmed down for a while, then continued to ram it, and finally...
Boo~
There seemed to be a slight sound in the air, and He Mo clearly saw that there was an obvious crack on the eggshell. The little guy was encouraged and rushed towards the crack with all his strength. The crack slowly expanded, and the speed became faster and faster, until a small golden claw stretched out from the eggshell.
The little claws were very small, with only a few sparse hairs on them. They were only one tenth the size of He Mo's palm and looked extremely miniature. However, although the little claws looked small, they were very strong. They punched the eggshell one after another, cracking it completely.
In the golden light, a golden little guy was squatting in the eggshell stupidly, with even a small piece of eggshell on his head. He stood up slowly and walked unsteadily, without even thinking of shaking off the eggshell on his head first. He walked towards He Mo tremblingly.
"Hello, little guy." He Mo was reluctant to let the little guy come over right after breaking out of the shell, so he quickly picked it up. The little guy was very soft and light, with sparse golden hair covering its dazzling skin, as if it were made of gold. It looked up at He Mo blankly, its eyes full of admiration.
The newborn cubs want to eat the eggshells, which contain the energy they need for their initial growth. He Mo put the little guy on the eggshell, took off the eggshell fragments on its head and handed them to its mouth. Seeing He Mo by its side, the little guy felt relieved and ate the eggshell fragments bite by bite. Instinct told it to eat the eggshells.
Although the little guy didn't look good when he was born, he was so cute that he touched He Mo's heart. At this time, he looked even more adorable as he was eating the eggshell fragments obediently.
While the little guy was eating peacefully, He Mo had time to feel the extra energy in his body. This energy came from the atavistic golden lion in front of him. He Mo concentrated his mind and felt this energy. It was very tiny, and even He Mo took a lot of effort to find it.
This energy was quietly attached to He Mo's body, just like the well-behaved little lion in front of him. After He Mo found it, he thought about it and a trembling spark appeared at his fingertips.
This spark is very unique. It is composed of two colors, black and blue. The blue wraps around the black, complementing each other. Before He Mo could test the ability of this spark, it had already dissipated in the air.
The little guy was just born, and his superpowers were still too weak. However, since he was an atavistic golden lion, a super S-level beast, his superpowers wouldn't be too bad, He Mo consoled himself by thinking that if his thoughts were known by people outside, they would probably be envious. Not to mention that the atavistic golden lion was one of the most powerful beasts on the Central Star, the speed at which he summoned his superpowers could be described as appalling.
No one has ever been able to use superpowers on the first day a cub breaks out of its shell. They always raise the cub for a while, and wait until the superpowers of the beast have taken shape, before starting to feel the superpowers in their own bodies. Moreover, the fastest time to summon superpowers in the Federation is three days, and the slowest is one month. He Mo's speed can be said to be unique.
The little guy's stomach was still small, and he couldn't eat so much eggshell. He was full after eating a little bit, and with his round little belly, he snuggled into He Mo's arms.
The little guy spent a lot of energy to break out of the shell. After eating the eggshell, he fell asleep in He Mo's arms, curled up quietly. He Mo put the little golden lion on the bed, covered it with the soft blanket he had made earlier, and picked up the remaining eggshells and put them aside. When the little golden lion woke up, he could continue to eat them. Eggshells are the best food for the cubs after they broke out of the shell.
As soon as the little guy was born, He Mo had to change his original plan. The hatched cub couldn't be left alone for a while, so he had to wait until the little guy adapted to the outside world before he could go to the Exotic Beast Forest with Xiao Ba to look for elixirs.
