Many descendants

Chapter 300 The cruel truth

……

【Xiaomei, you're so cute!】

Su Yan excitedly picked up a snow-white squirrel with bright ruby ​​eyes, dressed in an exquisite sapphire blue satin dress.

[Host, don't get excited!] The little squirrel spoke, its voice just like Xiaomei's.

Su Yan couldn't resist kissing the little squirrel's chubby cheeks about ten more times before saying, "If I had known I could meet you like this, I would have played games already."

[The host is really bad at this game. Xiao Mei couldn't help but transform into an NPC to help you.]

"Wait a minute, I used to be really good at games, always getting first place in team play. Otherwise, how could you have crafted so many weapons?"

[Xiao Mei thinks there might be a highly skilled person in the host's team. With the host's maxed-out luck stat, it's hard to imagine how they could possibly defeat those mission leaders and big bosses, especially since they were killed in one hit by a monster and even stepped in bird droppings.]

Game information notification: [Countdown begins. Request to join the Wanderer Guinea Pig team.]

【Countdown?】 Su Yan looked at the name and suddenly remembered that she used to often team up with a player named 'Countdown' when she played games, and they even talked about everything. 'Countdown' always led her to complete many level missions, and after helping her reach the maximum level, he would leave the team.

【Agreed.】 Unexpectedly, she ran into him again, and Su Yan immediately agreed to the countdown team formation.

Countdown—[Shall we team up to fight monsters?]

Yan Xiaobai – [Okay.]

Yan Xiaobai was her go-to game name; she used the same name for all her games. Looking back now, the fact that the countdown timer always managed to pinpoint her name in the game was probably because she was too lazy to come up with a new one.

The countdown seems to be from someone who just played Lost Frontier, just like her, figuring things out as they go.

However, he has a strong comprehension ability and quickly got the hang of it.

Because she put all her upgrade points into luck, her other skills became mediocre.

[It seems that luck requires ability to drive it.] Yan Xiaobai sent a playful smiley face emoji.

"Isn't meeting me lucky?" the countdown asked.

That depends on your ability.

[I've finished the beginner's area, where to go next?]

[The Swamp Crocodile King? I was instantly killed by it the moment I walked in.]

I have something to do offline, tomorrow at 12:30 PM?

【OK. 】

Su Yan watched the countdown to log off, then found a place to grind monsters and do herb gathering quests.

Xiao Mei kept following her, running and jumping around. [Host, Xiao Mei can go kill the Swamp Crocodile King.]

Su Yan smiled and said, "No need. Since I've already made an appointment with Countdown, I'll kill them together. Oh, by the way, Xiao Mei, I just remembered something."

[What is it, host?] Xiao Mei jumped onto Su Yan's shoulder and licked her little paws.

Su Yan picked her up, kissed her, and said, "So, I want to know if it's possible to prevent the end of the world from happening?"

[I'm afraid not. As the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox said, this is a natural process of the world's decline from its peak. Haven't humans on Earth found new planets to migrate to?]

But that would mean sacrificing a lot of people.

Indeed, current Earth's resources can only accommodate the relocation of 11% of the population. At the end of the world, 89% of the population will perish along with the planet.

Su Yan raised her large cleaver and slashed at the poisonous insect monster, gaining a little experience. Then she collected the herbs and put them into her herb-gathering basket.

This period should be the last flourishing of humankind on Earth.

Something has to be done.

[The host could facilitate the early migration of humans, preventing the Earth from collapsing. The host can provide resources as assistance.]

How to migrate in advance?

[Host can look up Qin Mo; he later became the chief commander of the human migration project, and they should have already begun making contact.]

"Okay, I'll log off now and go check out his office." Su Yan said, saving the game and exiting.

She took off her gaming helmet; she was still in the office, wearing a suit jacket that smelled familiar to her.

A sharp feeling of hunger came over me.

Su Yan tossed her coat aside and began taking food from her spatial storage to eat.

She ate as she walked toward Qin Mo's office.

He has a safe containing many documents; I wonder if any of them are related to the human migration plan. Is there a way to break the safe's combination?

【SY9908】

[...] What does this password mean? She had always believed that he didn't love her, but even the safe's password was related to her, making it hard not to overthink it.

Su Yan put on a pair of gloves, opened the safe using the password Xiao Mei had given her, memorized the order of all the files, and then checked them one by one.

Even after finishing the book, I didn't find anything related to human migration plans.

"Isn't this the place?" Su Yan restored all the files to their original state.

Xiao Mei said, "There's a secret compartment behind the safe. There's also a combination lock there, and the combination is..."

【What is it? 】

[The host should like this.]

【…】

【520SY1314】

[...] Su Yan got goosebumps all over her body. This was completely different from the impression he gave people. He didn't seem like the kind of person who would say such things at all.

But after entering this cheesy and exciting password, the mezzanine clicked open...

Inside was a file folder.

Su Yan opened it, and the first page had five words written on it—the Replicant Project.

[A clone?]

After reading it, Su Yan's forehead was covered in a thin layer of sweat, and her face showed fear.

【Xiaomei, did you see that?】

Yes, the host is a clone, but the soul is not copied; it is completely independent.

No wonder they draw my blood every month; it's to check my health!

[The host's fetus also had a genetic defect. However, Xiaomei has already corrected it, and she is now a very healthy fetus.]

"Thank you, Xiaomei." Su Yan copied all the files.

After everything returned to normal, he teleported away.

Instead of returning to the ZH Hotel, they headed to the original clone, Ming Shengyue, whose identity was marked on the file bag.

She knew this person; she was the granddaughter of the president of Country Z.

No wonder she heard someone say at the president's 90th birthday banquet... that the double would disappear sooner or later.

It turns out they were talking about her.

Su Yan stood outside the wall of the president's private residence and maximized the system map.

It was clear that Qin Mo was with a girl lying on the bed.

The girl resembled her by about 70%, and if she were healthy, she might resemble her by 90%. She had an IV drip in her arm, and a vital signs monitor was next to her.

"Mo~ When will I get better?"

"almost."

"Mo, I want to be with you, have your children, cook for you, and lie in your arms every day."

"Will do."

"Mo, please don't leave today, okay?"

"Okay, I'll stay with you here."

……

Qin Mo's gentle demeanor towards Ming Shengyue was something she had never seen before. His attitude towards her... had always been inconsistent, sometimes cold, sometimes warm, sometimes distant, sometimes gentle, sometimes ruthless, like a trapped beast.

Thinking of the safe's combination, Su Yan suddenly understood his struggle.

He eventually developed feelings for her; otherwise, he wouldn't have touched her, and every time he did, he would give it his all, as if he wanted to empty himself completely before he would stop.

[Xiao Mei, this trip to Earth was really worthwhile.]

The truth can be cruel, but it can dispel obsessions.

Actually, once I got here, I had no more obsessions. It's just that knowing the truth made me feel a little sorry for Qin Mo.

What should the host do next?

[...Playing video games!]

[Okay, Xiaomei will accompany the host.]
