Beast World: Rise to Power with the Offspring System
Chapter 1215 - 1213: I... I like you!

Mingzhu Island.

After Xiao Suisui left, Sally always felt an emptiness in her heart. Occasionally, while doing tasks, she would turn her head to look back.

"This isn't right, this isn't right! I'm only 17, how could I possibly want to be a mom?" Sally patted her face, suppressing the strange thought that suddenly appeared.

She still needed to return to her own world. She couldn't leave too many ties here.

Wait... why must she go back? In her original time, she was also an orphan. If she didn't earn reputation points, living in this world would be the same, right?

[Xiaomei, living anywhere is still living. What if I decide not to leave?]

[The Host can choose to stay.]

[Then I'll stay.]

[Is the Host sure?]

[...If I say yes, will you leave?]

[Yes. If the Host chooses to abandon the task, Xiaomei will immediately leave and search for the next Host.]

[Then... maybe I'll continue with the tasks for now. Being able to teleport and do meaningful things for society is pretty good.] Besides, with Xiaomei as a safety net, she hasn't encountered any danger for so long, this feeling is quite enjoyable.

[Alright, Host. Congratulations on earning 1890 reputation points.]

[Huh? I didn't do anything.]

[Reputation points calculate the Host's influence on the world. If someone believes in the Host, respects the Host, they can earn reputation points too. The more people that believe and respect the Host, the more reputation points the Host will earn.]

[I see! So if I become a celebrity?]

[You can earn reputation points as well.]

[So just now, someone believed in me?] Sally's mood suddenly became a little excited.

Xiaomei replied: [Yes Host, the more followers you have, the more reputation points you will earn. Keep going, Host~]

[Hmm! So if I earn enough 17 billion reputation points and decide not to return to my original time, what will happen?]

[Upon task completion, a reward mechanism will be triggered. The Host can make another choice at that time.]

Gu Cheng came over to find Sally, seeing her red-faced appearance, thinking she was unwell, "What's wrong with you?"

After all, Sally's previous body was a regular at the hospital. Although she had become better now, it wouldn't hurt to be cautious.

Sally replied, "I hit the jackpot!"

"..." Gu Cheng was speechless, "My mom suggested we temporarily take some time off, and a helicopter will pick us up later."

"Where to?" Sally frowned.

"I don't know either; my mom hasn't told me."

"I'm not leaving."

"If you don't leave, they'll forcibly take you."

"My parents were also taken away by a helicopter and never came back." Sally suddenly remembered that night, their clothes were covered in blood, "They were forcibly taken too."

"Uncle Su and Auntie got on the wrong side of many people during their missions. They left to protect you."

Sally looked at him, "Who killed them?"

"I don't know about that. But given Uncle Su and Auntie's strength, the opponent must be very powerful. My dad said, the Twelve Apostles, each has unique abilities. Uncle Su had innate Divine Power and flight, Auntie had photographic memory and the Evil Charm Eye, she could control people's will for a short time."

Saisai Xiya came over, saying to Gu Cheng and Sally: "The helicopter will be here in ten minutes."

Gu Cheng immediately got a bit anxious, "Sally! This is not the time to be headstrong."

"Actually, you got engaged to me mainly because of my parents. Now that they're gone, there's no need to continue with this engagement."

"No. I, I like you!" Gu Cheng suddenly blushed.

Sally was stunned, "What did you say?"

"I kinda... like you." Gu Cheng's expression was both red and awkward.

The helicopter arrived.

It wasn't a military one, but a royal aircraft.

Aisente carried several large suitcases, two of which were pink and yellow, belonging to Sally.

It turns out they had already prepared everything. They indeed wouldn't care whether she agreed or not; they would ensure she got on the aircraft.

"What exactly is happening?"

Seated on the royal aircraft, Sally peered through the window to the outside... discovering that the originally once-a-day hover train now had three running simultaneously, and there were 13 planes flying simultaneously in the distance based on her estimate. Can the air routes even accommodate them?

Gu Cheng helped her fasten her seatbelt, "I don't know."

Sally turned her gaze toward him, seeing the top of his head close at hand, she couldn't resist knocking on it, "You don't know anything. Is this thing just for height?"

"You!" Gu Cheng glared at her, "Put it on yourself."

"It's already on." Sally replied.

"... Hmph." Gu Cheng sat across from her, quickly fastened his seatbelt, opened the Light Computer, and began typing messages rapidly.

Sally looked back outside, noticing another hover train. "Uh... sorry, I shouldn't have said that to you just now."

Gu Cheng's fingers halted, then his expression eased a bit, "I'll forgive you this time."

"I'm thirsty." Sally said again.

Gu Cheng twitched his brow, "… What do you want to drink?"

"I want ice cream."

"… There isn't any."

Sally looked at him plaintively, "Really?"

Gu Cheng immediately shouted, "Aisente, do we have ice cream?"

"Yes." Aisente replied.

Very soon, Aisente brought two boxes of ice cream, one was jam-flavored, the other chocolate-flavored.

"I want both." Sally replied.

"No way! You can only have one." Gu Cheng chose a jam-flavored ice cream for Sally since she often ate this on the island, "Or nothing at all."

"Please~" Sally suddenly acted coy toward Gu Cheng.

Gu Cheng's face turned white with a blush, "No way!"

"Geez!" Sally had to take the jam-flavored ice cream and eat it, "Feels like we're on the run, so is there a war happening?"

Gu Cheng was about to say he wasn't sure, but suddenly remembered Sally's words and said, "Though the news is tightly controlled, there's almost no talk online, but my cousin said it might be the end of the world."

"Your cousin?"

"Eliza, the youngest daughter of the Great Princess, is two years older than me."

"The end of the world, huh, how can there be a" Sally's voice suddenly stopped, and the ice cream in her hand lost its sweetness as she stared at the sky.

Somehow in the sky, an unusual black shadow had appeared!

"What is that?"

"It's a meteor!" Gu Cheng was not looking outside but at the Light Computer.

The shadow grew larger and larger!

Sally took a huge bite of her ice cream, "If it crashes down… your cousin was right."

[Xiaomei, haven't done today's task yet, have we?]

[No, Host.]

[Can we do something?]

[With such a large meteor impact, currently, the Host's reputation points are insufficient to prevent it.]

[What?] Sally was dumbfounded, [Are you saying if reputation points are high enough, it can prevent this meteor from hitting the ground?]

[Yes, Host.]
