Chapter 667 - 322: Qiming’s Fall (Part 2)

The actions of the two robots were all captured by Qian Chen’s eyes. Although he was surprised to learn that autonomous intelligent robots could also have human-like emotions, he was more worried about the current situation. Without needing Changxi’s reminder, he had already started packing his things.

Due to the foresight of Changxi and Su Mo, the assets left by Su Jiameng were converted by them into various things that might be useful in the future, such as mecha parts, mineral materials, medicine injections... and most importantly, the ingredients for making the Potential Activation Potion!

In the Human Alliance, a person can use the Potential Activation Potion three times in their lifetime. When used properly, it can propel one to transcend themselves!

The two young masters need these things as assistance to make their future path smoother. However, the finished Potential Activation Potion is too expensive; even if they sold all their assets, they couldn’t exchange them for six of the best potential activation potions currently on the market!

Even the best is still inadequate in Changxi’s eyes for the two baozi. They eventually opted for self-sufficiency and self-reliance, which also cost significantly less! Changxi even thought of selling on the black market to earn money if they ever don’t have any left in the future.

On the second and third days, the atmosphere at the Su Mansion was very tense and oppressive. The Adhesive Devouring Worms had already begun large-scale reproduction, devouring and absorbing energy, continuing to reproduce, continue devouring, and absorbing energy... Only one or two out of every ten warriors sent by Gu Qidong to clear them returned.

"Indeed... I still underestimated these things..." Gu Qidong was somewhat weary now. He organized the evacuation of people from Qiming Star and then dispatched troops to surround this abandoned planet. According to that bizarre novel, the Adhesive Devouring Worm is considered a very low-level and insignificant member of the Insect Race, incapable of such rampant interplanetary crossing.

While the Insect Race had not become a significant threat, they were to be isolated and eliminated one by one! However, Gu Qidong understood too little about the Insect Race, or perhaps he simply did not truly believe in the novel, which was akin to a divine prophecy, and underestimated the terror of the Adhesive Devouring Worms.

For two consecutive days, the invisible oppressive atmosphere and the tangible pressure of death made it hard for everyone on Qiming Star to breathe. Some citizens had already begun large-scale relocation, and they came to believe in the existence of the Insect Race in the world, while students also started to relocate gradually...

However, compared to the speed at which the Adhesive Devouring Worms spread, their retreat was too slow, and the flames of war began to sweep through this originally peaceful and harmonious place. Given the large population, even with the uninterrupted increase in warship flights throughout the day, it was still impossible to thoroughly evacuate everyone in the shortest time, let alone evacuate them all at once. At this time... the disparity between people became apparent...

Some people could leave early, while others could only line up. Without any background or strength, the people from the Su Mansion naturally also had to wait. Changxi waited calmly, but on this particular day, someone took a risk and visited the Su Mansion.

"Who are you?" Changxi looked somewhat suspiciously at the person wrapped tightly in a cloak. Judging by their physique, it should be a woman. As for the person beside the woman... it was an old acquaintance, Gu Ningzhi, whom he hadn’t seen in many years.

"My name is Gong Yulu, but if you don’t mind, you can call me Wu Su." Gong Yulu removed her hood. At a time when everyone else was too scared to leave their homes, only the two of them had the courage to run around.

In fact, Gong Yulu didn’t dare come here initially, not even feeling the urge to approach. Especially when she arrived on Qiming Star and learned from Gu Ningzhi that Su Jiameng likely perished in that absurd war... she was even more repulsed by the idea of approaching here.

However, she inadvertently overheard the evacuation plan arranged on Qiming Star and immediately thought of the pair of children Su Jiameng had left behind! According to that plan, the two children were scheduled to leave in the third wave; by then, who knows to what extent the Adhesive Devouring Worms would have evolved!

Leaving the two children here was far too dangerous! Ultimately, Su Jiameng missed the opportunity to meet with them, but her two children must not encounter any issues whatsoever! Hence, she was here to offer them an open door.

"Wu Su?" Changxi softly repeated this name, a trace of doubt and inquiry flickering in his eyes. "So, what brings Miss Wu and Mr. Gu here today? The world is not peaceful, and it would be best for you two to leave quickly for the sake of safety."

"Here are two documents, special allowances for both Gu Ningzhi and me. You can take the two children and leave early." Gong Yulu fixed her gaze on the other party. "Qiming Star will soon be unsafe, the sooner you leave, the safer you will be. Staying even a minute longer could cost you your life!"

Changxi showed a look of shock, initially wanting to accept, but ultimately changed his tone, saying, "Now Young Master Xi is in charge. This concerns the survival of the entire family. I’m not sure what Young Master Xi thinks... but whatever he decides, we will comply."

Yes, now it is Huaixi in charge, concerning the survival of the whole family; he has the right to make decisions. Changxi’s manner of education followed Su Jiameng’s previous teachings. He hoped that the child would grow up quickly, the sooner the better...

Thus, this choice fell from the sky upon Huaixi. The little fellow looked troubled at the two documents. He knew that the uncle and aunt before him were helping and taking care of them because of his mother, but...

Huaixi showed a sad expression, "If my brother and I leave, what about Uncle Qian Chen and Xiao He?"

"Now things are urgent, and you still have time to worry about others?" Gong Yulu couldn’t help but be curious. This child really seemed unlike the decisive and determined Su Jiameng; how could he be so indecisive?

"It’s different... Uncle Qian Chen and Xiao He aren’t ordinary people; they are family I recognize. If I choose to give up now, does that mean in similar future choices, I will also give up on my brother? A bottom line must be adhered to, it shouldn’t get lower and lower."

Huaixi answered seriously, "These words were said by Mom in the past... Besides, my brother and I have telekinesis. Uncle Qian Chen is very powerful, much stronger than the average person, so we definitely won’t have any problems." (To be continued.
