The main system did not respond. Unlike the previous system, the main system rarely spoke to Qian Yuan when he was on a mission. Even though it would often come to Qian Yuan's side and watch him when it was free, the main system would never point fingers at Qian Yuan, say that he was doing something wrong, or make any decisions for Qian Yuan.
Even now, the main system doesn't say anything to discourage Qian Yuan, nor does it defend itself. Instead, after Qian Yuan has listlessly fallen asleep, it whispers:
"Actually, it's not bad looking."
"...It's beautiful."
Qianyuan was only startled by the sudden transformation of his original form and had no idea how extraordinary or meticulously crafted the original form the system had created for him overnight was.
This is also partly because Chiyo's original form is completely different from his younger self, and she is afraid of being disliked by her father.
The more his father praised his baby for being cute, the more guilty he felt.
Moreover, so many people love his cub form; their love is deep, and so is their criticism. Although Qianyuan has not learned it, she has already grasped its meaning.
The greater the hopes others place on him, the greater the pressure he feels.
Moreover, he would feel nervous because of Shen Qianyu's attack and injury, and would climb into Shen Qianyu's bed at night to fall asleep while listening to his father's heartbeat.
Shen Qianyu still treats Qianyuan like a cub, and of course doesn't think there's anything wrong with that, since Qianyuan would sneak up and do parkour in the middle of the night when she was little.
Therefore, he did not immediately notice Qianyuan's unease.
Perhaps it was a case of what you fear most coming true; while Shen Qianyu was still recovering from her injuries, groups of space pirates came to cause trouble again.
The space pirates were no match for the beastmen's strength and couldn't cause much trouble. Even Shen Qianyu didn't take their actions seriously.
But when those space pirates were dealt with, they watched as the high and mighty Shen Qianyu cursed wildly:
"Do you think your orc race can stand aside?! When the Devourers arrive, all star systems will perish!"
Devourer.
Shen Qianyu was momentarily dazed.
He hadn't heard that term in a long time.
But the inhabitants of all planets know this name; they are the nightmare of all races, all galaxies, and even the entire universe.
In the earliest records of the Orcs, they suffered two attacks from the Devourers. The first attack nearly wiped out their race, which then re-evolved into the current Orcs. The second attack saw the Orc king lead them in a desperate fight to repel the Devourers, who then turned around and pierced through the entire star belt, forcing the Orcs to regress several hundred years, rebuild their technology, and establish the strict army and hierarchical system they have today, with the entire race serving as soldiers.
Even a powerful race like the Orcs suffered greatly from this, let alone other races. The current space pirates are composed of many exiles who have lost their tribes. They burn, kill, and plunder everywhere, just to find a place to go.
The space pirate's suicidal harassment and counterattack before his death finally alerted Shen Qianyu to something amiss. He suppressed his ominous premonition and asked his assistant to investigate where the rumors were spreading.
The appearance of the Devourer was like an unknown prophecy, like the Sword of Damocles hanging over everyone's heads. No one knew when it would fall, or whether it would come true. People were filled with fear and uncertainty.
Even if the source of the rumors cannot be found, Shen Qianyu must strengthen the beastmen's defenses.
Shen Qianyu was busy with the martial law situation for the entire beast race, so busy that he barely had time to rest, while Qianyuan was by his side concerned about his health.
Shen Qianyu's injuries weren't too serious, but they weren't minor either. He definitely couldn't overexert himself. Qianyuan was like a puppy, constantly circling around the busy Shen Qianyu, bringing him water seven or eight times during each meeting, almost putting his assistant uncle out of work.
Moreover, the gloomy atmosphere would definitely worry the little guy. In order to prevent Qianyuan from knowing about these things, Shen Qianyu also needed to praise Qianyuan's assistant in his spare time, saying that she did a good job and was much better than him.
Wearing a white suit, Qian Yuan smiled like an innocent little prince: "Can I go to the meeting with Dad this afternoon?"
Shen Qianyu gently pinched Qianyuan's nose, her affection evident in her words: "Save some space for your assistant uncle, otherwise he'll be out of a job soon."
Qianyuan said, "Now that I'm all grown up, I know a lot of words, and I can help my dad with his work!"
Shen Qianyu did not answer, seemingly disbelieving Qianyuan's words, which made Qianyuan want to go to military school for further studies the next day. After thinking about it for a while, Shen Qianyu actually agreed.
His father, who is usually very protective of him, was surprisingly willing to let go this time, saying that it wouldn't be bad for him to study at a military academy.
Qianyuan was too eager to show her father that she could stand on her own, and she didn't notice her father's unusual behavior.
The little guy just thought that if he could graduate from military school in the shortest amount of time, maybe his father would agree to let him follow him into the realm of adult capabilities and into the circle called protection.
Qian Yuan went to military academy to study, so he didn't pay much attention to the decreasing number of military academy students recently. It seemed that some emergency had caused them to even transfer the military academy's reserves to the front line.
However, what Qian Yuan didn't expect was that he would actually see Yin Qing at the military academy.
Yin Qing was imprisoned by Shen Qianyu for three days before being released. Because he hadn't caused any real harm to Qian Yuan, and given his undeniable strength that everyone could acknowledge, Shen Qianyu reluctantly allowed his assistant to release him.
Yinqing is currently busy on the front lines and hasn't been in contact with Qianyuan for a long time.
Now, meeting you again feels like a lifetime ago.
Yinqing's hair was cut even shorter, and he wore a well-tailored and sophisticated military uniform. His rank insignia on his chest had jumped two levels, and he was now the commander of the corps.
He is selecting candidates to go directly to the military.
The moment Qianyuan saw him, memories flooded her mind like a tidal wave.
Scene after scene, incident after incident, event after event.
When she came to her senses, Qianyuan's eyes were filled with love that had never faded over the years.
His lips parted slightly, as if he wanted to utter a more familiar syllable, but in the end he only softly called out Yinqing's name.
With tenderness, affection, and unwavering protection.
Yin Qing's heart skipped a beat. When he turned around, he still had a stern face and was very wary of who dared to call his name. When he saw Qian Yuan, his face stiffened. He said "excuse me" to the person next to him and went into the bathroom. When he came out again, Yin Qing had become a walking fragrance with a rosy complexion and a lemony scent.
Qianyuan almost couldn't help but laugh and asked him, "Are you busy?"
Yin Qing blinked, completely ignoring the urgent secret order she had just received, and turned to tell Qian Yuan, "Yes, martial law is in effect recently, and we're short-handed, so we're expanding our army."
"The Devourer is about to appear. The timing has been calculated precisely. We are doing everything we can to save as many people as possible."
After saying that, Yin Qing frowned in dissatisfaction: "Why hasn't Shen Qianyu moved you to the underground city yet? The cubs on the outer perimeter have all been moved. He should make plans as soon as possible and not put you in danger."
