Chapter 50
Since the other Usatos learned that Soland was with Yu An and the space around the world was still fragile, they left and went hunting in more distant places.
Yu An's mental power is still in its infancy. If his clansmen are far away, he cannot hear what they are communicating. This is why he rarely hears their voices in recent years.
The sound in his ears was getting closer and closer. Yu An began to get anxious. He took Claude out, held it in his hands and pinched it, trying to greet the approaching fellow.
[Hello... Uncle...]
The baby's voice is so timid that it makes people feel soft inside.
The person on the other end was stunned for a moment, then responded with even greater enthusiasm, "Ah! An'an An'an! My sweet An'an, uncle misses you so much. Don't worry, I'll go catch you a beautiful big butterfly. I guarantee you'll be blown away. I'll be right there!"
Uncle Usatos was very excited, and even quickened his pace to get here because of excessive excitement. Yu An wanted to explain, but his excited laughter completely covered Yu An's voice.
[It's useless.] Claude slightly bent a small tentacle, supporting his little head, and struck a contemplative pose. This adorable body was just funny. [The foolish one is Kerlen, "He" has already arrived.]
In an instant, several strong tentacles stretched out from the space connected to the rabbit hole, and instantly wrapped around the big butterfly. The butterfly's beautiful wings were broken, and a layer of phosphorus powder fell sparsely.
The poor butterfly could not utter a single wail, and could only watch as a tentacle reached into its swollen tail, searched inside, and dug out a crystal clear purple stone.
The moment the stone left the body, the huge butterfly's body turned into powder and disappeared.
Zhuang Yexing held his breath, still in shock, not daring to speak too loudly. "What the hell is this thing? A super S-class alien species, and it solved it in an instant!"
"What kind of terrifying alien species is this? Xu Ye Ning, can you tell what level it is?"
Xu Ye Ning rolled his eyes at him and said speechlessly, "Am I some kind of humanoid scanner? I can tell the exact level with just one look."
Zhuang Yexing choked up and said, that was true. The butterfly was already above S-level, and this mysterious alien species would only be stronger. Fortunately, this tentacle alien species only killed the butterfly and did not do anything to others, otherwise they would definitely not be able to cope with it.
Yu An stared intently at these large tentacles and hid in a corner, fearing that he would be noticed by Kelren.
He couldn't let his non-human identity be discovered in public, otherwise his father would definitely scold him. Although his fathers had never scolded him before, he might not do so this time.
Yu An's backward movement caught Gu Yixing's attention. Gu Yixing stood beside him and grabbed his shoulder. "Hey, why are you hiding? Do you think this one is particularly scary?"
Yu An nodded guiltily.
"I think so too. Although the previous ones were also scary, this one gave me the strongest sense of oppression. Just looking at the pattern on its tentacle made me feel dizzy and my head was spinning."
"But He doesn't seem to have any intention of harming us. Could it be that we are too weak and He looks down on us? Also, who would deliberately step on an ant on the street for no reason?"
I have to say that Gu Yixing is very self-aware and he did hit the nail on the head.
But something unexpected happened. The tentacles that were about to retract into the hole suddenly stopped and stretched out again. Everyone's heart was in their throat again.
“Swish!”
The sound of breaking air came one after another. Ling Xingcheng was the first to react. He picked up his crutch and pushed Xu Ye Ning aside with force. The place where he was originally standing had been pierced by the tentacles.
Xu Ye Ning's face turned pale, but the next second, the tentacles rushed towards him again.
Yu An looked anxious and lifted Claude up. "Why did Uncle Kelren attack my uncle?"
Claude watched Xu Ye Ning dodging here and there: [It must be because his vitality is too strong, that fool Kelren mistook him for an alien.]
As expected, Kelren's voice rang out over the communication channel, "An An, wait a minute. I found a rare life form here. I'll capture it for you. Hey! Pretty agile."
If alien life forms were not so rare, He would have stabbed him to death with one tentacle and taken the body back.
Yu An was terrified, "I don't want it, uncle, please don't catch him."
[How can that be?! This is my gift to you, my dear, you must accept it.]
But who would capture someone else's uncle as a gift?
Yu An grabbed Claude's little tentacle and swung it back and forth, wanting to cry, "What should I do, what should I do..."
On the other side, Kelren became angry because his prey was too agile and his patience ran out. He withdrew his two tentacles, pulled the narrow rabbit hole outwards, and stuck most of his body in.
He must catch him this time!
Claude, at the other end of the rabbit hole, had a terrible headache. Seeing the surrounding space shaking and collapsing due to Kerlen's arrival, he sighed and said, "It's okay. Wait until He comes out. I'll pull Him back."
Kelren, who was digging a hole, shuddered all over, looked around vigilantly, and after making sure there were no other living creatures, he continued digging.
When he finally came out and wanted to teach that ungrateful alien a lesson, he saw Yu An standing behind a group of people, and Claude on his shoulder.
Kelren was overjoyed, "Baby An'an, why are you here? Solander, long time no see. You're still so ugly, hahahahahaha."
Yu An pursed his lips and said, "Uncle, can you go back first?"
[Why? I just got here. Oh, right, I have a delicious sparkling energy stone here for you!]
The tentacles, carrying the purple stone, approached Yu An. Fu Yunshu and the other two beside Yu An all felt their hearts skip a beat. Was this alien targeting them? What did it want to do?
At this moment, Claude jumped off Yu An's shoulder, his eyes flashed, his body instantly grew countless times larger, and he swung his tentacles with powerful force towards Kellen.
Kelren was shocked, [Old...ah!]
He was instantly blown away, curled up into a ball, and rolled back into the rabbit hole. Claude glanced at the rabbits and said, "Why don't you go and repair the space?"
The rabbits hummed twice, swarmed over, and diligently patched the big hole. Claude only grew bigger for a few seconds, and then returned to his original small size.
With Claude's breath as a deterrent, other alien species took detours and did not dare to go into the rabbit hole, even though it smelled of sweet food.
In another dimension, Kelren was completely bewildered and yelled, "Boss, why did you hit me for no reason? And An An saw it! I'm so embarrassed! Ahhhh!"
Claude: [Go away.]
Kelren immediately backed down: [Just get out, humph! ]
Claude tilted his head back and looked at Yu An. Yu An picked Claude up and placed him in his palm. Seeing that he looked dazed, he poked him with a worried look, "Are you okay?"
Claude: [You... forget it.]
Yu An was puzzled. [What happened?]
Claude is leaving and returning to his original body, and the real Solander in the temple will come back.
However, this not-so-bright little cub probably couldn't tell the difference between him and Solander, so there was no need to say any parting words.
Claude stared at Yu An's delicate and beautiful profile, his mind swayed. He didn't know when they would meet again. Perhaps by that time, the little guy would have grown up.
[Brother Solande, are you very sleepy? ]
【Well, I'll take a nap.】
[Okay, I'll wait for you.]
Yu An put the sleeping little octopus into his pocket. When he looked up, he saw several adults looking at him with burning eyes. Yu An's heart trembled, "What, what happened?"
Ling Xingcheng stared at Yu An's slightly bulging little pocket. It was hard to imagine that this little alien could repel a super S-level alien with one blow. It was so cute, but it did not affect his combat effectiveness.
He couldn't help but wonder how Wen Xun and Lin Huaichen could get such a powerful alien species. Judging from the shock expressed by Zhuang Yexing and Xu Yening, it was obvious that they were also unaware of it, and the research institute probably didn't know either.
Ling Xingcheng thought for a few seconds, pulled Yu An to his side to protect him, and turned to face Zhuang Yexing, "Now that things are over, let's go home and sleep."
As he said that, he picked up Yu An and prepared to run.
Zhuang Yexing was obviously not so easily fooled. Of course, even though Claude attracted his attention, he did not forget his mission this time and still held Zhou Xia with his other hand.
Zhou Xia didn't struggle, looking casual as if he had accepted his fate.
Zhuang Yexing narrowed his eyes. "An An, what is the origin of this alien species of yours? Why doesn't the institute have its registration information?"
Yu An had no idea about this. He hugged Ling Xingcheng's neck in panic, stammering but not saying a word. He shook his head and looked at Ling Xingcheng for help.
Ling Xingcheng pressed Yu An's little head into the crook of his neck, patted his back soothingly, and glanced at Zhuang Yexing secretly. "It's okay, go to sleep. I know you've been sleepy for a long time. Let's go home and sleep now."
"Lao Zhuang, how could a child like him know these things? You should go ask Lin Huaichen."
Ling Xingcheng wanted to run away while holding Yu An, but Zhuang Yexing would never let him go. He followed them and said, "This alien species is too dangerous. We must first send it to the research institute to test its specific level."
"How is it dangerous? It's just a cute little kid's pet." Ling Xingcheng said, "It's probably just a C-rank alien. We've seen the world, and we wouldn't steal a child's things just for an alien..."
Yu An didn't dare say a word throughout the whole process, for fear of affecting Ling Xingcheng's performance. Fortunately, Xu Ye Ning acted as an outsider and didn't ask anything, so Ling Xingcheng only had to deal with Zhuang Yexing.
Zhuang Yexing grew increasingly angry as he spoke. "How can this be just an ordinary low-level alien? It just knocked a super S-level alien away. Is this the strength a low-level alien should have?! Ling Xingcheng, don't treat me like a fool!"
Ling Xingcheng lied with his eyes wide open: "Really? How could I not know where there are super S-level alien species? Aren't there just a bunch of furry rabbits here? Lao Zhuang, you are getting confused."
Zhuang Yexing: “…”
Shameless, absolutely shameless!
He simply took action and tried to take Yu An from Ling Xingcheng's arms. The little guy's arms were white and tender. Zhuang Yexing was afraid of hurting him, so he used as little strength as possible.
Yu An easily pushed him away, but Zhuang Yexing immediately grabbed him again, so he had to hold Ling Xingcheng tightly, like a sticky piece of gummy candy.
Ling Xingcheng frowned and slapped Zhuang Yexing's hand, "Hey! Why are you trying to grab it? Don't think you can do whatever you want in front of me just because my leg is broken. I will really fight back."
During the argument, Solander in the pocket woke up. He rolled out in a daze, fell to the ground with a thud, rolled twice on the ground, and his body became bigger again, completely turning into a human form.
Ling Xingcheng: "Oh wow."
Yu An was shocked, "Brother Solander!"
Zhuang Yexing and Ling Xingcheng stopped at the same time. Zhuang Yexing looked at Ling Xingcheng coldly, "Is this the low-level alien species you were talking about?"
As we all know, only alien species above level A can change their form.
Even though he was slapped in the face, Ling Xingcheng didn't show any embarrassment. "Yes, this is the latest type of alien species. It can transform into a human. It's quite unusual, isn't it? Even I've never seen one before."
Zhuang Yexing: "...I really want to slap you to death."
Solander lay on the ground with a dizzy head. He remembered that Claude had exchanged bodies with him, and then... he seemed to become very tired, and then slept for a long time.
A little kid ran up to him, grabbed his hand, and pulled him, his soft voice filled with worry, "Brother Solander, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Solander's head was stunned, and he stood up with the help of Yu An's strength. The power that Claude had exerted with the help of his body was too strong, and Solander's weak body could not bear it. Now his limbs were weak and he could not use any strength.
"I, I'm fine." Solander shook his head twice, trying to stay awake. Looking at Yu An's gradually opening face and growing height, he said in surprise, "An An, you've actually grown a little bit."
Yu An paused and looked up at Solander's blue eyes. Although "Solander" had not appeared in human form for a long time, his memory was still vague in Yu An's mind.
There is no difference from what he remembered, but there is definitely something different. This feeling is too strange. Yu An can't put it into words, but he just stubbornly believes that the current Solander is different from the one just now.
"Who are you..." Yu An let go of Solander, his eyes unfamiliar, and took two steps back, full of caution, "You, you are not Brother Solander, who are you?"
Solander was stunned, confused. "...I am Solander, An An, what are you talking about?"
Who else could he be if not Solander?
Yu An pursed his lips. The Solander in front of him was completely different from the one he knew. It was as if he had lost a familiar relative. Great panic filled his heart.
"You're not..." Yu An choked up and ran to Ling Xingcheng. He turned his head to look at Solander, then threw himself into Ling Xingcheng's arms and broke down crying, "No, no... Wuuuuu."
When he cried, Solander would cry too.
Oh my god, he just took a nap, didn't he? It would be fine if the child grew up inexplicably, but why didn't he recognize me right away?
