Chapter 185
When he realized there was someone around, Langze jumped to the side nimbly. Even though he was carrying Zhengxing on his back, he landed steadily on the ground, avoiding the collision.
The person who was almost hit stopped where he was and awkwardly withdrew the hand that he had extended to help.
Lu Jiao, who was a step behind, hurried to Langze, stood with the little wolf cub, and looked at the newcomer vigilantly.
Three or four strangers in uniform came to the gate of the nursery. Although judging from the color of their uniforms, they should be from the action team and the guard team, Langze and the others had never seen these people before.
"Who are you?" Lu Jiao stepped forward and stared at the adults warily.
Behind them, Ran Lie and others also came out of the nursery building. When they saw the scene here, they immediately ran over.
The cubs' team suddenly grew larger.
"What happened?" Ran Lie asked.
"They broke in suddenly and I don't know what they are going to do!" Langze said.
"Don't get me wrong! Don't get me wrong!"
Yun Zixu, who was standing at the front of the team, waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Dear little heroes, we are friendly forces from Base 26, and we are here to look for Breeder Su."
Then he pulled Song Zehe next to him and said, "The person next to me is a friend of Keeper Su. They know each other!"
Song Zehe, who was forced to follow, had a very stiff expression and body language, because the base had given him a clear task this time - to find a way to pry someone out.
Of course, if you can't pry it open, you should try your best to get some benefits for the 26th Base.
Song Zehe was very reluctant to come. He and Su Ci didn't have such a deep friendship. He only gave Su Ci a little bit of food, but Su Ci returned him a box of high-quality Star Chain Fruit.
How could he possibly cause him any more trouble?
This kind of thing is really unethical! So at first, he refused it sternly.
No matter how much Team Yun tried to persuade him, he still refused to nod. However, after fighting for a while and seeing his teammates constantly getting injured while fighting the monsters, Song Zehe's resolute heart couldn't help but waver.
Especially after Team Yun showed him the video of how Su Ci purified and eliminated hundreds of monsters with just a wave of his hand.
Only then did he realize that Su Ci, who seemed weak in his eyes, was actually such a powerful and formidable person. He also finally understood why Team Yun wanted to recruit Su Ci so much.
Although Song Zehe believes that he does not have the ability to pry open the wall, but... can he ask Su Ci to help eliminate those monsters and give the tired defenders some time to breathe?
Song Zehe was not afraid of fighting, but the battles during this period were too many and too intensive. Not to mention the new recruits, even the veterans could not bear it!
Those garlic sprays and garlic smoke bombs did play a very important role, but the output could not keep up with the consumption, and they were not effective against all monsters.
That's why their situation is becoming increasingly difficult.
Although Song Zehe knew that they were sent to Prison Star for advance training in preparation for going to the front line, were the battles on the front line really that frequent and dangerous?
He felt like he hadn't had a full, good night's sleep since the red fog invaded the base!
Finally, driven by various pressures, Song Zehe followed Yun Zixu to the 24th Base, ready to discuss something with Su Ci.
Even if Su Ci doesn't agree, they will bring back a mutant garlic this time. By then, they should be able to gradually expel the red fog from the base like they did at Base 24.
The people at Base 24 should have known their intention, but what was touching was that they chose to turn a blind eye.
Perhaps they were confident that they could not pry Su Ci's power away, or perhaps they could not bear to see the friendly base being captured by monsters, so no one from Base 24 stepped forward to stop them.
Not only that, they were also given permission to enter the nursery smoothly. Of course, that was all.
Whether they can invite Su Ci depends entirely on their own abilities.
Therefore, when Yun Zixu saw that the cubs seemed to have misunderstood, he became so nervous. After all, anyone could see that breeder Su cared about the cubs, otherwise it would be impossible for him to stay in the nursery and be unwilling to leave.
But even if he pushed Song Zehe out, no one cared.
"Little hero?"
Langze looked at him and tilted his head.
The wolf cub also successfully diverted the attention of the other cubs. Lu Jiao asked, "Why does he call us little heroes?"
"I don't know." Lu Li shook his head.
Ran Lie and Rong Heng frowned.
Zheng Xing had already gotten off Langze's back. The presence of so many strangers made him feel uneasy, so he huddled behind Langze and Lu Jiao, hiding himself tightly.
The cubs had only heard people call them "little monsters" and had never heard of the title "little hero", but it sounded... not bad?
"You guys deserve to be called little heroes for your bravery in fighting the monsters last time," Yun Zixu explained with a smile. "We even fought side by side before. Do you remember?"
Several cubs couldn't help but look at him, and finally shook their heads honestly.
Yun Zixu: “…”
Well, it doesn’t matter if you don’t remember, that’s not the point.
"Excuse me, is Breeder Su here?" He asked with a smile on his face and in a tone as gentle and harmless as possible.
Perhaps the word "little hero" really pleased the cubs, so their attitude towards Yun Zixu became gentler.
"Susu is still sleeping, you can't make noise." Lu Jiao reminded with a serious expression.
"Okay, okay." Yun Zixu nodded cooperatively.
However, the usually carefree little wolf cub was not carried away by the sweet words. Having experienced the dangers of the world, he always maintained a strong sense of vigilance towards the things he cared about.
"What are you looking for Susu for?" Little Wolf stared at Yun Zixu, "Are you here to snatch Susu away?"
After being reminded of this, the cubs immediately came to their senses.
They stood in a straight line, and their originally kind eyes had completely changed. They stared at Yun Zixu, Song Ze and them like little beasts guarding their food.
The little tiger Ran Lie and the little lion Rong Heng even bared their teeth at the adults, looking like they were ready to fight to the death if they disagreed with them.
Even Zheng Xing released his mental power and locked it on these people.
They are not afraid of monsters at all, so naturally they will not be afraid of the adults in front of them. They will not let anyone take Susu away!
Yun Zixu swallowed.
It can be said that even though he was a veteran of many battles, he felt tremendous pressure when facing this group of cubs with a strong fighting spirit, not to mention the team members accompanying him.
I'm afraid that before convincing the breeder Su, they still have to convince these cubs who seem to explode at the slightest touch...
Song Zehe, on the other hand, was a little more calm.
Because he never thought that he could really persuade Su Ci to leave. His biggest purpose in coming here was to hope that Su Ci could help Base 26.
So, facing the young children's questioning, he said: "We hope that Keeper Su can help."
"What help?" Ran Lie asked.
"We are from Base 26. There are too many monsters attacking our base. We hope that Breeder Su can help us relieve the pressure." He explained sincerely.
"Are you really not here to take Susu away?" Langze asked suspiciously.
"No, no." Song Zehe waved his hand, "We won't force anything without considering Keeper Su's wishes."
Yun Zixu, who was standing next to him, stiffened slightly after hearing this, and could only nod. This plan was actually within his imagination, but he didn't expect that he would have to make this choice before even meeting the person.
Song Zehe spoke sincerely, but the cubs did not immediately believe him. Instead, they all looked at Zheng Xing who was hiding behind Lang Ze. The little wolf cub also asked, "Xingxing, did he lie?"
Zheng Xing, who possesses super mental power, can even sense the condition of plants, so he knows how much water and fertilizer to apply, not to mention that he is facing humans.
Zheng Xing pursed his lips and said slowly: "No."
After hearing this, the cubs finally let down their guard, while Yun Zixu and the others couldn't help feeling ashamed.
So, that child who seemed to have the least presence actually possessed the ability to detect lies? Then we can only be thankful that Song Zehe didn't lie!
"Okay, I misunderstood you. I'm sorry."
Langze apologized quickly and was about to continue talking when Li Sinian and his wife came out of the nursery building with Xiao Lihua and Xuewei.
Noticing the commotion here, the two hurried over.
Seeing Yan Ya, Lang Ze immediately remembered what happened before and said excitedly, "Mom Yan Ya, the chicks have hatched!"
When Yan Ya heard this, she instantly forgot about these strangers. Anyway, with Li Sinian here, she didn't need to worry about such things. "Then let's go and take a look!"
Therefore, Yun Zixu and others could only stay where they were and watch the group of cubs and the beautiful lady rush to the shed in the corner.
As for the people who were left behind to receive them...
Yun Zixu looked at Li Sinian, and the more he looked, the more familiar he felt. Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you... Marshal Li Sinian of the Tes Empire?"
"Yes." Li Sinian nodded.
Although he wanted to be with his wife and cubs, he couldn't just leave these Prison Star warriors alone, so he could only stay and greet them.
"Marshal Li..."
Yun Zixu was about to speak when Li Sinian interrupted him and said, "I have already resigned from the position of Marshal. You can just call me by my name."
Hearing this, Yun Zixu was a little confused, "Then why are you here..."
Li Sinian said, "Oh, I'm a breeder here."
Yun Zixu: ???
Did he hear it right?
The Marshal of the Tess Empire resigned from his post and came to the Prison Star Nursery to work as a breeder?
In the chicken coop, A Yan was taking the hatched chicks out of the device and placing them in an uncovered box next to it.
Of course, he heard about the dispute outside, but he didn't take it to heart. The aura of those people was relatively pure and should not be harmful to the cub.
What's more, these little guys are not easy to bully.
As for the purpose of these people... A Yan has already guessed it. After all, there is more than one base on Prison Star, and all of them are in trouble now.
The 24th Base, where they are stationed, is particularly eye-catching.
Anyway, no matter what decision Su Ci makes, he will follow him without hesitation, and...A Yan has not forgotten what Su Ci said before, that if he wants to leave, he will take him with him.
A Yan smiled slightly, counted all the hatched chicks, and then scattered feed in the box.
This feed is prepared from plants in green spaces. It is pure natural and pollution-free, and is very nutritious, which can help these chicks grow better.
"Brother Ayan, we are back!"
Langze was the first to run in from outside the chicken coop. The sudden noise scared the chicks so much that they chirped and ran around in the box. One particularly strong chick even flew out of the box.
"Wow! The little chicken can fly!"
Lu Jiao said in surprise, then looked at the little tit standing on Xuewei's shoulder.
The little tit was also looking at the chicks curiously. The newborn chicks were covered with golden fluff, like little balls, and were at the peak of their appearance.
Jiujiu also thought these chicks were cute, but when it noticed the other chicks looking at it and comparing it with them, it immediately became unhappy.
The little tit flapped its wings, soared around the roof, and said proudly, "I fly higher than them!"
Indeed, those little chicks could only flutter at low altitude and soon fell back to the ground, but it was so cute to see them flapping their wings hard to fly!
After catching the chick that had flown out and putting it back into the box and comforting it, A Yan carried them out of the shed and let them bask in the sun.
There is a railing around the shed, so there is no need to worry about them running away.
After being reminded by Ayan to keep quiet, the cubs squatted obediently around the box, observing the chicks pecking at the food, and occasionally couldn't help but pull their companions aside to talk in a low voice.
Yan Ya watched from the side and couldn't help taking photos and videos. She felt like her heart was healed.
If she initially stayed in the nursery for the sake of her two children, now, after living here for a week, she really wanted to stay.
Admittedly, there are no rich material conditions here, not as many exciting and interesting entertainment activities as outside, and no overly complicated social interactions, but she feels that her spiritual world has not become impoverished at all because of this.
On the contrary, she felt a peace she had never felt before.
I prepare three meals for the children every day, watch them happily eat the food I make, and accompany them to class and play. It feels like every day is repetitive, but there is different happiness happening every day.
What made Yan Ya happiest was undoubtedly the little wolf cub's cry of "Mom Yan Ya". Later, all the children followed suit.
If she could always accompany these children as they grow up, how happy would that be? If possible, she would like to be "Yan Ya's mother" for these children forever.
So at her insistence, she and her husband applied for the job of breeder at the nursery.
Although this is not appropriate according to their resumes, as Su Ci is the only official employee in the nursery, as long as he nods and there are still vacancies, the Human Resources Department will never refuse.
What's more, these two new employees not only asked for a very low salary, but also donated a considerable amount of supplies to the base and the nursery.
Under these circumstances, only a fool would push them out.
So, Li Sinian and his wife stayed successfully. As for the iron-eating beast Laizer, who had regained his memory, after some thought, he did not go back to report to the base immediately.
He is currently unable to recover his human form, and his daughter Sissi's transformation into a beast is quite serious. He hopes to stay in the nursery temporarily to look for ways to recover while taking care of his wife and daughter.
The brooding area is no longer as deserted as it used to be—of course, this is only during the day.
The cubs also shared their "new rules" for the brooding house with several new trainee keepers, asking them to keep quiet at night.
Although Wen Yan and Li Sinian did not understand why, they strictly followed the rules and had not made any mistakes so far.
"Let's name the chicks!"
At this time, Yan Ya heard the little wolf cub's proposal and the other cubs agreed, and she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
It's easy to develop feelings for a chick after giving it a name, but these chicks will be used as food in the future... She looked at the chicken coop, hesitated for a moment, and quickly came up with an idea.
The hens can stay to lay eggs, and it doesn't matter if they develop feelings for each other. For those roosters that cannot lay eggs, one or two can be kept, and the rest can be raised in another location, and finally raised farther away from the brooding area.
This way, children won’t see the animals being slaughtered on a regular basis, and won’t feel it’s cruel.
After hearing Yan Ya's suggestion, A Yan also thought it made sense. He originally felt that raising all 20 chickens in the nursery would take up some space, so it would be better to keep a few of them and find a place for robots to feed the rest.
In the distance, Yun Zixu heard the noise coming from the shed and couldn't help but ask, "Is this... raising chickens?"
"Yes, my wife raised it." Li Sinian nodded.
Yun Zixu listened to his proud tone and was silent for a moment. This guy gave up his good job as a marshal and came here to be a breeder. Not only did he even bring his wife here?
He didn't understand, but was deeply shocked.
What Yun Zixu didn’t expect was that there was something even more shocking to come.
They waited for nearly an hour and finally met the legendary breeder Su.
On the green land, Yun Zixu stated his purpose under the cubs' eager gazes, hoping that he could go to Base 26 to help deal with the monsters. However, the breeder Su did not respond.
He just yawned and looked lazily at the red-haired, tiger-eared boy.
"Do you want to go?" Su Ci asked.
