Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 190: Chapter 190: The Apocalypse - I Am Not the Holy Mother 97

Ten years later!

On the incredibly bustling streets, people were everywhere, either riding or leading various mutant beasts or mutant insects. They strolled leisurely, occasionally gathering for a brief chat.

Two elderly men, each leading a Mutant Orchid Mantis, gathered together, greeting each other.

”Old Zhang, you’ve got time to come out! And you’ve brought your son’s baby along, don’t feed it random things this time, or your son will get upset with you!”

The elder called Old Zhang, with his hands behind his back, defended himself to the person opposite, ”Can you blame me? Our Little Flower is so pretty. It stands in front of a snack vendor, and the boss there gives it a bunch of food. When I saw it eat so happily, I thought it was fine. Who knew it would upset its stomach? Don’t you think it pains me too? Now that I’ve learned my lesson, I won’t give it random things to eat, no matter how much it acts cute!”

He said the last part because, upon hearing that it wouldn’t be allowed to eat random things, the Orchid Mantis beside him rubbed its head affectionately like a cat against the elder’s leg, trying to act cute. The elder, with a face that’s hard to maintain a serious expression, sternly rebuked it, but his eyes were full of doting affection.

The other elder shook his head and patted the Orchid Mantis that obediently lowered its head when he reached out to touch it, ”It’s easy for you to say, resisting their acting cute’s not easy. In my family, both my partner and I can’t resist; its father has to step in.”

The elder referred to its father as his own son. Nowadays, humans share close bonds with these intelligent, specially-trained mutant creatures. They are both comrades and family, and many people call their mutant creatures sons or daughters.

As the two elders chatted, they saw a team of entirely blood-red giant spiders approaching from the end of the street. The formation was orderly, and each giant spider carried a soldier in crisp military attire, looking handsome and elegant.

As this team of spider-mounted soldiers passed by, everyone automatically parted to both sides, gazing at them with envious eyes.

A child, drooling, grabbed his father’s sleeve and, in an unclear voice, made a grand promise, ”Papa, when I grow up, I want to join the army and become a majestic spider cavalry!”

The young father, smiling indulgently, lowered his head to wipe his son’s drool and affectionately agreed, ”My dear, you have great ambition. Alright, let’s become the most majestic spider cavalry in the future.”

Seeing this scene, many people around smiled knowingly, but they all felt it was impossible. Everyone knew that these powerful red spiders were the offspring of Red Jade, the battle companion of the nation’s top expert, Lin Shuangshuang.

The reason there were so many was that Red Jade was fortunate to conceive before the world’s changes. Nowadays, it’s very difficult for mutant creatures to reproduce! Even though Red Jade found a mate, she still hasn’t had offspring.

Ordinary mutant creatures have stronger reproductive abilities, but they lack intelligence, and their combat power is not high enough. Besides being raised for food, they can’t be trained as battle pets. Nowadays, except for the lucky soldiers selected by the little spiders, becoming a spider cavalry means going out into the wild to capture a special mutant spider, with no other way.

In the military headquarters office at the base center, Song Yuhang was entangled with Lin Shuangshuang, who was planning to return to the South. Song Yuhang wanted Lin Shuangshuang to stay and continue training his soldiers. Soldiers trained by the top expert surely have top-tier combat prowess. Having personally experienced Lin Shuangshuang’s rigorous training, Song Yuhang knew that the combat power increased rapidly with each session.

Lin Shuangshuang naturally refused to stay. She had been away from the South for over half a year and had traveled without anyone else. She missed her parents, missed Doumi and Red Jade, missed her team and partners, and even missed Qing Lin, that childish Jiao with a temper that only got worse with Zhong Qi’s indulging.

Besides, Zhang Ling and Li Wenbo, Mi Lu, and Li Wenxuan’s children were about to be born, and she, as their godmother, couldn’t be absent. With a list of reasons from Lin Shuangshuang, even Song Yuhang felt like going to the South.

An hour later, in the base commander’s office, a soldier with two stripes on his shoulder was reporting to Song Yuhang’s father, ”Report, Commander, Major Song has left the base with Instructor Lin, and they’ve taken on a three-year posting to the southern region!”

Snap!

A pen was crushed by Song Yuhang’s father’s bare hands! The veins on his forehead bulged. He had sent his son to bring back Lin Shuangshuang, the top expert, but not only was the task incomplete, but his son was also whisked away together with her!

Regardless of how angry Song Yuhang’s father was, Lin Shuangshuang and Song Yuhang, eager to return, finally arrived in the South after a month, thanks to mutant flying beasts with speeds akin to airplanes helping them travel straight.

It’s unavoidable, as the land had expanded so much, the area was dozens of times larger. Going anywhere takes ten days or half a month of travel, even when riding mutant flying creatures as fast as planes like Lin Shuangshuang. If traveling by land, who knows how long it would take.

Now, the southern forest had transformed greatly, with large treehouses built around the area where Qing Lin resided, housing excellent soldiers who came to the South for cultivation.

As Lin Shuangshuang passed by, she was stopped by Ah Cai, who had come to the South with her master for cultivation, and called out to her as a beauty for a long time. Only after she accepted a flower Ah Cai got from somewhere could she continue on her way.

Passing the treehouse cluster, there was a large open space, Qing Lin’s main activity area. When Lin Shuangshuang and Song Yuhang arrived, they saw Zhong Qi, a doting parent, directing several Water Ability Users to help Qing Lin bathe, mainly to clean between its scales to prevent parasites or such.

What amused Lin Shuangshuang most was seeing the strong woman Zhang Yanhong sharing a close, sweet moment with Zhong Qi, talking and laughing. It clearly hinted at something beyond ordinary between them.

Lin Shuangshuang raised an eyebrow; she knew Zhong Qi had been interested in Zhang Yanhong for several years. But half a year ago when she left, Zhang Yanhong still seemed indifferent to Zhong Qi. How did things flip so quickly?

Turning her head, she saw her mom Wei Min and dad Lin Hai helping Red Jade and Doumi bathe on the side. Not only Red Jade and Doumi, but Lin Shuangshuang also noticed many mutant pets bathing. What’s going on? A collective big bath day!

Seeing Lin Shuangshuang, Wei Min and Lin Hai both displayed wide smiles. Upon asking, Lin Shuangshuang learned that Qing Lin had accidentally fallen into a mud pit while playing outside, dirtying itself. All the Red Jade, Doumi, and a large group of followers that ran with Qing Lin also got dirty.

As a result, the cleanliness-loving ones refused to have it. They rushed back demanding baths, and with the three main ones bathing, all the followers clamored around. So, a dozen parents were busy bathing their dirty rascals.
