Chapter 159
Xizi crisply said the name of a story.
"Star Ocean Legend: The Undersea Kingdom"?
The title of the story is quite long and I don’t know what it is about.
Undersea Kingdom... Is it a fairy tale like The Little Mermaid?
Qi Heng thought so, but his men were searching at a fast speed.
The Internet installed on the QW-1 system is quite functional, with all necessary software available, including search engines.
However, compared to the real "Internet", the local area network currently only used on Tianyun Star can search for limited content.
Some of the searchable content is more than 10,000 years behind the times. After all, the central database of the QW-1 network is based on the Tianjia civilization central think tank preserved by the system - public data open to citizens with "imperial citizen privileges".
Soon, content related to this story popped up.
Qi Heng clicked on the only relevant content on the search page, and after a quick glance, he found that the story was quite long.
"Where did you hear it last time?" he asked.
Xizi was confused and subconsciously looked at his female father beside him.
He can only listen to stories and has no idea where the story ends.
Chu Xiu, who received the bug cub's request for help, said to Qi Heng, "It's time for Chapter 19."
"Let me take a look first."
Qi Heng hadn't read stories to children for many years. When he was with Yan Le, he just said a few words to coax her to sleep.
He selected Chapter 19 and clicked on it, ready to take a look at the content first.
One second, two seconds, ten seconds passed.
Qi Heng's mouth twitched as he looked at the words in front of him.
What a mistake! How could I have thought this was a serious fairy tale?
I quickly scanned the beginning of Chapter 19. Can these really be used as bedtime stories for children?
Wouldn’t a bedtime story like this really scare the baby so much that he would hide under the covers and cry at night?
Xizi, who had been waiting nearby for a while, saw that he hadn't spoken a word, so he tugged at his sleeve and asked in confusion, "Father Xiong, what's wrong with you?"
"No, nothing."
Qi Heng's gaze shifted from the story on the interface to Chu Xiu, who was leaning against the wall on the other side and looking in the direction of him and the insect cub.
Perhaps she needed to rest, her silver hair, which had been tied up, was untied and spread over her shoulders. A few naughty strands of hair fell on her temples and finally hung down in front of her body.
The soft light emitted by the fungal carpet in the room fell on Chu Xiu, making the three-point smile on his lips become seven-point.
Seeing Chu Xiu like this, Qi Heng was stunned and even forgot what he wanted to say.
People are always more tolerant and favorable towards good-looking people, and Qi Heng is no exception.
Come to think of it, this is the first time I’ve seen Chu Xiu like this. It’s not like I’ve seen Chu Xiu smile before... When we met for the first time, Chu Xiu, who had just woken up, couldn’t help but rush over to give me a hug.
When we met again later, I smiled, but it was more restrained than the first time.
The smile is so faint that you would miss it if you didn't pay attention.
And this time...
His expression was relaxed, his smile overflowing with contented joy. His naturally beautiful phoenix eyes were no longer as sharp and sharp as they were in adulthood, making people afraid to look directly at them. Instead, they seemed somewhat... gentle.
Qi Heng's undisguised gaze was too obvious for Chu Xiu to fail to notice.
What is His Majesty thinking? Is it because I am too relaxed that His Majesty feels offended?
The smile on Chu Xiu's lips gradually froze, his heart was in turmoil, and he felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles all over.
Qi Heng didn't notice this, he had been a little distracted since just now.
Xizai, who was sleeping between them, blinked his eyes and looked at the male and female fathers who were looking at each other. There was great confusion in his little head.
Xizi puffed up his cheeks. His male father had clearly said he would tell him a story, but now he was staring at his female father.
As his mind raced, Xizi recalled a question he had debated with before, and suddenly he understood.
——So it turns out that between me and the female father, the male father likes the female father the most!
Not to mention what was going on in Xizi's mind, it had only been two minutes since Qi Heng looked at Chu Xiu.
"Sorry, I was distracted." Qi Heng, who was immersed in his own thoughts, finally realized that he had been absent-minded for too long. He looked away and coughed lightly, saying, "Did you choose this story?"
He noticed that Chu Xiu was almost visibly tense at this moment, completely losing his previous relaxation.
It seems like this is because of myself.
No, it’s not like that, it’s because of myself.
Qi Heng knew very well how important the title of Lord was to Chu Xiu.
He lowered his eyes in thought.
In Chu Xiu's mind, if one day he needed to exchange his own little insect cubs for the safety of the master... Chu Xiu would probably agree without blinking an eye.
The voice that sounded was not Chu Xiu's clear and crisp voice. Instead, a soft and tender child's voice spoke before Chu Xiu:
"no."
Xizai puffed out his chest, trying to appear more powerful, but his words had the exact opposite effect.
"It was chosen by the cub. The cub wants to be as good as Arnold in the future!"
"No, I want to be more powerful than Arnold!"
"Then give the beautiful ball to Father Xiong as a gift." Xizi's tone became more and more excited when he said this.
Arnold, the protagonist of "Star Ocean: The Undersea Kingdom", is a male insect.
“…”
Qi Heng originally thought that Chu Xiu had chosen it, but he never expected that the little bug had chosen the story himself.
Facts have proved that I shouldn't have any expectations for the Tianjia Zerg that I personally "guided", even if they are just small bugs.
——What kind of warm and tender bedtime stories about snow, moon, wind and flowers can a group of battle maniacs and the poisonous fanatics dominated by Tianjia write?
——It’s better to do it yourself than to rely on them.
No matter how childish the description of "Star Ocean: The Undersea Kingdom" is, it cannot change the essence of this story.
This is the story of the Tianjia Zerg conquering an ocean civilization and making it a vassal of the Tianjia Empire.
The reason why it is hundreds of chapters long is that this story describes the entire process of the conquest at that time, such as how many battles were fought with that civilization, which ones used high-tech weapons combined with tactics, and ultimately made this ocean civilization lose "willingly" and so on.
The ending of this story is similar to that of other stories. The captured planets and galaxies will be presented to His Majesty the Lord and become beautiful embellishments on the star map of the vassal civilization of the Tianjia Empire.
What? How could Qi Heng, who was reading this story for the first time, know what the whole story was about?
That was of course because he had A0 browse it and then give a brief account of it.
The efficient A0 took less than 0.1 seconds to complete the scan, and then told the entire story in one sentence, which took a total of 15 seconds.
As for why you know the endings of other stories?
A trace of helplessness appeared between Qi Heng's brows. With the character of the Tianjia Zerg, there was nothing he couldn't infer.
What's more, when he asked A0 back just now, A0 also gave a positive answer, which proved that his guess was correct.
While Qi Heng was chatting with A0 in his mind, he did not forget to correct the insect baby that had crawled into his arms.
"There's no need to give the ball to the male father."
Xizi tilted his head, a little curious: "Why? Doesn't Xiongfu like it?"
"I don't like it, and there are other people living on the ball. It's their home." The education of the Tianjia Zerg should start from childhood.
After all, times have changed.
The unspoken rule of "whoever has the bigger fist is the boss, and the law of the dark forest allows you to do whatever you want to anyone" is no longer popular in today's interstellar society.
Everyone (interstellar civilization) is starting to save face.
Qi Heng's words surprised Chu Xiu a little, but not too much... Judging from the style of his Majesty during this period, it is indeed very different from the past. The civilized development model he adopted is even more moderate, which is completely different from the extreme attitude in the past.
Xizi didn't know all this. He turned his little head and found an answer of his own from his limited knowledge.
"Don't you like it? But Brother Ghost said that you, Father Xiong, like it."
"If it's home, why not just give them and the ball to Xiong's father?"
Xizai said happily, "Since Xiong's father is so kind, they will definitely agree."
Okay, A0 again.
Qi Heng: ...
However, he was somewhat surprised that such "brutal" words came out of the mouth of a cub that had just emerged from an egg.
He sighed in his heart, it seemed that the road to educating the cub was a long and arduous one.
"You can't force someone else's home to be given to Xiongfu as a gift. Xiongfu doesn't like this kind of behavior." Qi Heng emphasized the word 'dislike'.
The one who likes to use the homelands of other civilized races to develop rare resources, use them as resource reserves, and use them as mines is the [Tianjia Lord]. What does this have to do with him, Qi Heng?
He, a former human who had been forced to travel back in time to clean up the mess made by the Overlord, didn't like it at all.
real.
