Beast World: Rise to Power with the Offspring System

Chapter 179: Chapter 178 Xiaomei’s Task Chapter 179: Chapter 178 Xiaomei’s Task “Do you want to watch a movie for a while?” Sally opened the display that was folded on the car roof, along with the matching high-capacity hard disk player, which contained replicas of the movies Xiaomei had watched.

Zhu Sanlang certainly wouldn’t refuse.

After Sally started the movie for him and prepared some tea snacks, she began to make dumplings.

Listening to the familiar movie lines… Occasionally, her mind would drift to the person who used to watch movies with her, although his image had become very blurry.

One by one, the plump dumplings took shape in her hands and were laid out on the cutting board.

Zhu Sanlang watched the movie with utmost seriousness, and even after it ended, he still seemed captivated.

“Come and eat the dumplings,” Sally said as she brought the dumplings to the table.

“The movie was very good,” Zhu Sanlang told Sally, “and I like this car too.”

Sally smiled and said, “If you like it, I’ll give it to you.”

After all, she had another spare one that was even more spacious and luxurious—it came with the big gift package when she was preparing for Xiaoba.

“Then I will gladly accept it. As an exchange, you can stay on Yunmeng Island as long as you like, and you may use any of the Spiritual Materials here,” Zhu Sanlang told Sally.

Sally breathed a sigh of relief, fully aware that she was unwelcome by Zhu Sanlang and that she was gathering Spiritual Materials all over the place. Though she needed to stay for the sake of her child, it was still somewhat embarrassing to do so without permission.

“Thank you, Mr. Zhu. Once I have the child, I will leave. The truth is, I can’t find a better place than Mr. Zhu’s to nurture a pregnancy.”

“Sure, if you need any help, just let me know,” Zhu Sanlang said. “By the way, have you seen the two additional mountains over there? They have houses on them. I see you like gathering Spiritual Material; those two smaller mountains have even more around them, and they are older. Some are about to transform through a divine tribulation and become spiritual—those are even better to consume.”

Sally looked at him in surprise, she certainly knew of those two small mountains and had scouted them out; however, those were his territory.

Being allowed to gather at the outskirts was satisfying enough for her.

…

Sally chose a mountain with a house that had a garden and a large solarium.

She loved the garden and the solarium where she could sunbathe comfortably.

From his higher vantage point, Zhu Sanlang could sometimes see Sally’s transformed little demon body, not expecting her to be a tiny mouse, smaller than the size of his hand.

The Beast Clan of Beast World really came in all shapes and sizes.

Unlike the demons of the Demon Realm, without wars or disasters, the Demon Clan silently dwindled. Sometimes across several mountains, not a single Great Demon could be found, just some half-spiritualized birds and beasts that hardly counted as proper Demon Clan members.

Sally lay on a beach chair, wearing a two-piece polka dot swimsuit, sunglasses, and a sun hat, sunbathing and providing calcium for her children.

Zhu Sanlang flew down, intending to ask her about the RV, but halfway there, he saw her dressed like that, turned red, and flew back.

Sensing something, Sally looked up toward the main peak, saw nothing, and continued sunbathing.

She rubbed her increasingly large belly, thinking of Frans, who must be getting anxious by now.

Just wait a bit longer, she should be able to return once Xiaomei wakes up.

[Xiaomei] Sally called for Xiaomei every day.

Then she would check the System update time.

This time, she was stunned; there were more than two months left initially, but now there were only two minutes left!

Sally’s heart surged with joy as she stared intently at those two minutes.

[…10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0] This feeling was more intense than pressing the launch button on a rocket herself.

[Host, Xiaomei’s update is complete.] Xiaomei’s voice rang out.

Sally breathed a sigh of relief, “You finally woke up, if not, my child would have been born.”

Xiaomei replied, “That volcanic magma contains a large amount of black magnetite, which demagnetized me, but I’ve just finished repairing.”

“So it was the magma’s fault. I thought it was because the laboratory was destroyed that you were affected.”

“Xiaomei is not affected by the control system of the laboratory. However, others will probably lose the Offspring System because of this.”

“You mean Lena might…?”

“Yes, host, they will revert to normal females.”

“Xiaomei, you’re saying… those who built this laboratory on Holy Island, next to a black magnetite volcano that could destroy the Offspring System, might also have intended to destroy the Offspring System?”

“Yes. However, there isn’t just one Offspring System laboratory.”

“What did you say?” Sally asked, surprised as she sat up from the beach chair.

“Xiaomei remembered her mission, which is to destroy all Offspring Systems.” Xiaomei replied, and with this update, the Offspring System unlocked more of the originally locked data blocks.

“…” Sally didn’t know what to say, but then she remembered the giant silkworm she had collected, “Xiaomei, I put that silkworm machine in the space, should we destroy that one?”

Xiaomei negated, “No. But it can be used to contact the mainframe of the Offspring System. The mainframe is what Xiaomei needs to destroy. It’s very good that the host has collected it; otherwise, Xiaomei would have to search for another one.”

“In that case, let’s go destroy that mainframe right now.” Sally said, turning into a big-bellied white mouse.

“Not yet, my level isn’t high enough.” Xiaomei checked Sally’s current status, “Huh? What did you eat, host? Your pregnancy has shortened a lot, you’ll give birth in six days.”

“Six days!” Sally thought of how she had been scavenging the mountains for spiritual materials rich in golden light and had eaten quite a lot of good stuff.

“How did the host come to the Demon World?”

“You know this place?”

“After giving birth to the angel baby, the next place you should come is right here. Only here can you find males with higher talents, like the male on the mountain across from us. He is a Great Demon, a bit higher than Saint Rank peak.”

“Ah? He is the landlord here. I shamelessly freeloading food and shelter from this place.”

“There are no pies falling from the sky, he is very likely wanting you to bear his child.”

“Xiaomei, can we not joke about this!” Sally said speechlessly, this darn Xiaomei always thought about her having children whenever she saw a suitable male.

“He’s coming over,” Xiaomei informed Sally.

Zhu Sanlang landed uncomfortably on the garden terrace, looking at Sally who had reverted to her beast form.

“That, I will take responsibility!” After saying that, he took off again.

“…Huh?” Sally felt that she understood the words individually, but when put together, they made no sense.

“Mr. Zhu, wait—”
But Zhu Sanlang didn’t stop, heading straight back to his own peak.

Sally speechlessly thought, “What in the world is happening?”

Xiaomei explained, “The males in the Demon World are very polite. It could be that the host inadvertently allowed him to see your body, or touched something. If he’s interested in you, he might use responsibility as an excuse to get closer to you. Xiaomei has seen plenty of these cases with other hosts.”

Sally: …No wonder you’ve had nineteen hosts!

But Zhu Sanlang interested in her?

Impossible!
