Xiaohanxing (5) Update
Looking at the little bag that was filled again, the little boy wagged his tail happily and kept rubbing against Gongye Jiwang's face and neck. His flattery was so unbearable to watch.
Meng Ji's personality is not as unrestrained as its, but he was also happy to see the bag full of insect crystals. He was always well-behaved and introverted, so he slowly approached Gongye Jiwang's hand and rubbed the small arc against the back of his hand.
This was not the first time it had dealt with Gongye Jiwang, but it was the first time it had shown goodwill so gently. Gongye Jiwang was somewhat pleased and scratched its chin. The little fellow even swung his long tail and hooked his wrist.
The nine-tailed fox looked at the other two's full little pockets, fiddled with its own half-empty pocket, and became eager to move.
Shi Jianxia held his forehead with one hand, thinking that if this continued, all the kids would treat Gongye Jiwang as a food machine and would hand food to him when they were hungry.
She felt very embarrassed and filled the nine-tailed fox's small bag first.
The sparkling fox eyes looked over, and Shi Jianxia weighed its waist, signaling it not to act up.
Anyway, on this strange planet, there are all kinds of parasites. If you are short of insect crystals, just go out and kill them. As long as you are strong enough, you can get any level of parasites, and you can afford to let the kids eat them to their heart's content.
After the battle in the morning, she asked Gonggong to take a group of cubs out hunting, mainly to hunt insect crystals. She believed that they would have a good harvest when they came back in the evening.
Buzhou Mountain also led a group of divine mountains to search for insect vortexes. They would eat any they found and run away after eating, trying to eliminate all the insect vortexes nearby.
This way their situation will be safer and they won't have to worry about being besieged by a large swarm of insects in a short period of time.
"What are you thinking about?"
Shi Jianxia was wondering whether all his boys could be promoted to S-level this time, when he suddenly heard Gongye Jiwang's words and quickly came to his senses.
Gongye Jiwang picked up Meng Ji. He was nearly 1.9 meters tall, half a head taller than Shi Jianxia, who had grown to around 1.75 meters in recent months.
In the not-so-spacious elevator, this height would give people a strong sense of oppression, but Shi Jianxia did not feel cramped or oppressive.
She listened to the crunching sound of the insect crystals being bitten and said embarrassedly, "You've spoiled them too much."
Gongye Jiwang really liked the furry and spoiled cubs. Upon hearing this, he smiled and said, "I can't use the insect crystals I feed them, and storing them in my space bracelet will only add to the burden. It's better to give them a snack. When I hunt higher-level ones later, I'll have a place to store them."
This means that even if the third and fourth level insect crystals cannot improve his mimicry combat level, they still have other uses. Moreover, the insect crystals are light in weight and occupy little space, so how can they increase the burden?
Shi Jianxia felt even more embarrassed, and thought that if he offered Gongye Jiwang high-level insect crystals, he would most likely not accept them, and it would also make him seem pretentious, so he could only thank him quietly.
The kids at home are greedy, which makes it difficult for me as a mother.
As they were talking, the elevator opened and they arrived at the staff dormitory area of the Zerg Investigation Department.
Unlike the closed doors on the first floor, the situation here is quite messy. Some doors are wide open, some are half open, some are ajar, and the rest are closed.
There were some dried and rotten unidentified objects on the ground, which showed how hurriedly the investigators left.
Gongye Jiwang walked to the garbage robot lying dormant in the corner, took out the energy bar from the space bracelet and put it in.
"You have stored a lot of things." Shi Jianxia sighed.
Gongye Jiwang: "I often go out on missions. Whenever I need something, I will stock up on my space bracelet when I come back. Maybe it will come in handy someday. Energy bars are essential."
This is consistent with what he said before, that putting low-level insect crystals in his space bracelet would increase his burden.
Shi Jianxia nodded, then thought about the fact that his space bracelet contained nothing but insect crystals, and couldn't help but pull the nine-tailed fox's shaking tail.
It’s all because of these kids, they eat so much.
The little white fox raised his head blankly.
When Shi Jianxia met those big, glass-colored eyes, he suddenly felt a little guilty.
It wasn't just the little fox that could be eaten, so she couldn't just pull its tail, she had to treat them all equally, so she pretended to be calm and retracted her gaze, staring intently at the two cubs on Gongye Jiwang's side.
When the nine-tailed fox saw that she was pulling its little tail and ignoring it, it pouted in grievance, and its upright fox ears drooped like airplane ears.
But soon, a soft little hand reached out and gently touched its little ear as if touching a fragile treasure. Shi Jianxia also shook its little butt.
The little white fox was revived with full health, and crawled into the little girl's arms and began to act coquettishly.
The garbage robot was not completely damaged. After the new energy bar was installed, it made a clicking sound of gears turning, which sounded a bit rough. It was probably because the internal parts had not been used for a long time and were rusted or aged.
However, its vitality is strong enough. After a while, it adjusted its state and began to clean diligently.
Shi Jianxia exclaimed sincerely, "The quality of this robot is really good."
It can still work normally after being dormant in this damn place for more than ten years.
Gongye Jiwang helped Meng Ji jump onto his other shoulder and explained, "When we evacuated, the person in charge must have activated the Twin Towers' hibernation system, completely sealing it off from the outside while maintaining minimal energy consumption inside. That's why it's been preserved so intact."
Shi Jianxia suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."
"Are you thinking about coming back one day?"
Gongye Jiwang smiled and said, "Maybe."
The entire planet fell, but the last person to leave still held on to a glimmer of hope.
However, more than six hundred years have passed since the Zerg invasion. During this period, countless planets have fallen, and no one has ever been able to restart the fallen planets and retake the territory that originally belonged to mankind.
Shi Jianxia looked at the garbage robot working diligently thoughtfully and continued, "Maybe there will be such a day."
She didn't think that the ability of "Classic of Mountains and Seas" to devour insect vortexes was a coincidence.
Once a thing appears, it must be accompanied by natural enemies that can restrain it. The Zerg cannot expand indefinitely, otherwise humans would not awaken to mimicry and fight against the Zerg in a tug-of-war for hundreds of years to protect sufficient habitats.
Gongye Jiwang looked over, his thick eyelashes drooping, and whispered, "I hope it will be as you say."
They didn't have much discussion about the issue.
The garbage robot quickly cleaned out two previously uninhabited dormitories, which had sleeping cabins. Shi Jianxia lived with the little girl Chaochao, while Gongye Jiwang lived in the adjacent dormitory on the right.
Since this is a fallen planet, the communication satellites outside the planet had been withdrawn by the military when the federal government announced its abandonment of the planet. The signal base stations on the ground were either destroyed or activated the hibernation system like the twin towers, so the intelligent computers of the two people were in a no-signal state and could not exchange information.
Shi Jianxia asked Xixi to follow Gongye Jiwang, but was afraid that one cub would not be enough in case of an emergency, so he gave the cute and adorable Chenghuang to him as well.
Of course, I stuffed the kid's pockets before sending him over, but I was still worried that this good kid might learn bad habits from the beggar, 朏朏.
As for Meng Ji, Shi Jianxia often had to send him out to keep watch, so he was not suitable to follow Gongye Jiwang and act as a mouthpiece.
Gongye was so happy to have a new cub that he scratched Chenghuang's chin and touched the beautiful little horns on its back. He simply couldn't let it go and wished Shi Jianxia would give him a few more. It was quite interesting for him to touch the cub when he put it on his shoulder or to rub its round little belly when he held it in his arms.
The accommodation problem was temporarily solved, and there was no need to worry about Zerg attacks in the middle of the night when staying in the Twin Towers. Gongye Jiwang took his two cubs and prepared to go to the central control room of the Twin Towers to transfer the control authority to his own intelligent computer so as to deal with emergencies more conveniently.
Shi Jianxia wants to go with him.
As for Chaochao, she thought about it and decided not to take her with her. Instead, she summoned Changxi to tell her stories and play with her.
Chang Xi has a gentle personality, beautiful looks, extraordinary temperament, and speaks softly. Chao Chao fell in love with her at first sight. Shi Jianxia also advised her to stay in the dormitory obediently and not cry or make a fuss.
The dormitory door closed, and Gongye Jiwang withdrew his gaze from Changxi, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "Besides 朏朏 and the others, do you have other mimicry?"
Not many people knew about this. Zhuang Mingyue knew that the mysterious man who had tricked her during the siege of No. 5 was related to Shi Jianxia, but she didn't know that it was actually her mimic Chang Xi.
Shi Jianxia had a large number of divine puppet mimics. Gonggong, as the strongest combat force at present, had already shown up in the morning. With Gongye Jiwang's insight, he must have noticed it, but he did not ask and kept a polite distance.
Seeing Xia taking the initiative to summon Chang Xi, he naturally didn't have to pretend to be blind, and it wouldn't be presumptuous to ask a question.
Shi Jianxia blinked mischievously, "I never said that my mimicry is only those troublesome kids of 朏朏."
Hearing her description of the mimics, Gongye Jiwang recalled the scene of Xixi looking at him eagerly to beg for insect crystals, and chuckled, "They are still very cute."
After discussing the topic of mimicry, Gongye Jiwang said, "The central control room is located underground in the Twin Towers. There's only one access passage, with seven gates, so it's considered independent of the Twin Towers."
"Judging from the situation inside the building, there shouldn't be any problems in the central control room, but we still need to be cautious."
Shi Jianxia nodded. "The Buzhou Mountain guys just sent news that they've found an abandoned military base, but they can't confirm the situation inside. Let's find some time to go over and take a look."
"So fast?" Gongye Jiwang was a little surprised.
"Those little guys went crazy after they got out, flying everywhere." Shi Jianxia answered helplessly.
She added, "But there are many advanced parasites active over there, so it might not be easy to get close to."
In fact, an S-level insect vortex was discovered in Buzhou Mountain. The little guy was overjoyed and rushed over to swallow the insect vortex. However, he was discovered by a nearby parasite, which chased him across an entire city and accidentally discovered the existence of a military base.
There are several insect vortexes over there, one S-level, five A-level, and two B-level. It can be inferred that a great battle has taken place there.
There are quite a few Zerg coming through these vortexes, and it is not easy to get close to them.
"Don't worry, we can take it slowly." Gongye Jiwang said calmly.
He seemed to be sleepy again, and yawned with his hands covering his lips. His long and curled eyelashes looked particularly thick as he closed his eyes slightly, giving him a lazy and casual air that was different from the difficult-to-approach him when he was calmly fighting.
"Are you okay?" Shi Jianxia asked hesitantly.
She was afraid that he might fall asleep accidentally. Would she carry him back or carry him on her back? As for the princess hug, Shi Jianxia found it hard to imagine that scene.
Gongye Jiwang rubbed his eyes and said, "It's a physiological reaction caused by the mimicry defect. I'm actually quite energetic."
As they spoke, the two took the elevator to the bottom floor of the Twin Towers.
Because Gongye Jiwang's high-level authority activated the operating program of the internal system of the Twin Towers, the lights here turned on as they walked, and the metal corridor reflected in the eyes of the two people was wide and bright.
Gongye Jiwang used his high-level authority to open one metal gate after another, and they moved forward smoothly.
If it were the Zerg Investigation Office outside the occupied planet, he would definitely not be able to enter the central control room so freely, but as the Twin Towers exited hibernation mode and its advanced permissions were reactivated, he would be defaulted to being the highest person in charge of the Zerg Investigation Office.
Under normal circumstances, the overall authority of the Zerg Investigation Bureau's Twin Towers will not be transferred to a single person. This requires approval from headquarters, which is basically only encountered in wartime.
The last gate opened, and the bright lights in the corridor shone into the central control room, which was operating in low-energy mode. The two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
It's safe here and the facilities are complete.
The central control room is not huge, but it covers an area of half a football field. In low-energy mode, each system enters semi-dormant mode, and only a few virtual screens floating in the center maintain the basic operating procedures of energy storage and consumption of the entire building.
Gongye Jiwang said softly, "We are indeed lucky."
He walked in quickly, unfolded his intelligent brain to transfer authority and activate the signal base station inside the twin towers, when he suddenly heard a faint thudding sound coming from outside a wall of the central control room.
He turned his head, but before he could make a judgment, Shi Jianxia had already walked quickly to his side and whispered, "There is something outside the wall, I'm not sure what it is."
The thumping sound was not loud, but sounded like someone was hammering the wall.
When Shi Jianxia held his breath and prepared to check further, the thudding sound stopped and was followed by the sound of metal corroding, which was very harsh and sizzling.
A faint light came through, and Gongye Jiwang decisively pulled Shi Jianxia's wrist and took her to hide behind the shadow of a tall device.
The corner was narrow and the two of them were almost pressed together. Amidst the deliberately suppressed breathing, Shi Jianxia heard the heartbeat coming from Gongye Jiwang's chest.
