Beast World: Rise to Power with the Offspring System

Within the Holy Palace, Frans had also recovered a lot from his injuries.

After Ethan recounted the situation on Ruijin Continent to him three times in detail, he laughed.

"I am also in her heart now, aren't I? To think she would charge into battle alone for me." He had once seen her go crazy for Zi Qi, and now she had done the same for him.

Ethan was speechless, was that really the point?

"She has annihilated the army of Evil Beasts and the Abyss reinforcements on Ruijin Continent, and even the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox's whereabouts are unknown. The invasion crisis has been put to a temporary halt."

"Hmm, you continue to keep an eye on what follows. As for her, there's no need to search, she will come back if she wants to. If she doesn't want to come back, don't force her."

"When you were looking for her before, you searched heaven and earth, what about now?"

"I've realized! The best way to keep someone is not to bind them."

"...You've actually come to a realization, let's hear it then."

"It's simple, just give her freedom." He tried letting go and found he gained even more instead, and now he was about to have a litter of mouse babies.

Ethan shook his head, "You're beyond help. By the way, Luo Chuan suffered quite heavy losses this time."

"I know, but it's not a bad thing for him," Frans replied. "He told me that all those who went out were powerful Evil Beasts, easy to go but hard to return."

"Now they don't need to return at all." Ethan tapped his slender fingertips on the armrest of the chair a few times before standing up, "Any other commands? If not, I'll head to Ruijin Continent first."

Frans raised an eyebrow at him, "I heard that a large gold mine was blasted open on Ruijin Continent."

"Not big, not big, just pretty small." Ethan sort of guiltily replied.

"It's yours."

"Ah? Haha~~ Thank you, Your Majesty." Ethan left satisfied.

Frans smiled, Ethan had a little hobby of that he liked gold, even though it didn't show on the outside and he never wore it.

"Your Majesty, the queen has returned," Cesselin reported as she entered the hall.

In the garden—

Sally looked at Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi, her expression somewhat distant.

Even the sound of Frans's footsteps approaching, she didn't notice.

"Yanyan?"

"Hmm?" Sally looked up, saw it was Frans, and snapped back to reality, "How is your wound? Is it getting better?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore, you... what happened to you?" Frans noticed something off in her expression.

Sally replied, "It's nothing, I took a trip to Ruijin Continent."

"I know, Ethan has been back," Frans looked down at her belly, "Is the child okay?"

"The child is fine." Sally, hearing him mention Ethan, thought of Lena and her heart felt a surge of emotions, "That... Ethan is still waiting for Lena, right?"

Frans thought for a moment, then shook his head, "Just a temporary surge of desire, which has now settled down." Now that guy is more interested in the gold mine.

"After I left Ruijin Continent, I encountered Lena."

"Oh?" Frans understood, her current state must be related to Lena.

"Without the Offspring System, she seemed somewhat down. It's like even her talent is gone."

"Hmm, I had someone check on it, other females with the Offspring System also no longer have it. Now they are no different from ordinary females."

"At first, I thought this was a good thing for her," Sally sighed, "but, 'a fish knows not the joy of fish', she has already bound herself to another System."

"Bound to another System?" Frans frowned.

Sally nodded seriously, "I underestimated it. It's an enormous System that's hard to gauge, and Beast World might just be a small deployment spot. The laboratory on Holy Island was destroyed by volcanic magma, and is now about to be restored."

"You mean?" Frans was shocked.

"The laboratory will be rebuilt," Sally continued. "The Holy War will probably continue."

Frans sent people to the sealed Holy Island.

But Holy Island was still the same as when it was sealed, and there was no sign of the System Administrator 009821 that Sally talked about.

Even Lena and her daughter Angel were gone.

The Teleportation Array showed no sign of recent use, as it was originally one damaged by volcanic activity.

Sally was stunned when she received the news.

"How is that possible? Could it be that I am delusional, having hallucinations?"

"No. I've also sent people to Lena's continent to inquire about the situation.

There's a Wolf Clan male of short stature named Satchi who said that Lena left with her child and a noble female. He must have been talking about you."

"Did the Holy Church check into it?"

"The deacon in charge of the Teleportation Array died, but others corroborate your story.

Actually, Lena and Satchi had conspired together to deceive a local criminal of his family fortune. Your arrival made her change her plans. In reality, her life was not as difficult as you imagined; she is of the Fox Clan, and deception is their forte."

"...Then, I've been deceived by her from start to finish."

Sally felt somewhat hurt and nestled into Frans's arms for comfort.

Frans gently patted her back, "It's quite normal. Be more cautious in the future; the Fox Clan are cunning."

"Mhm," Sally nodded her head.

"So, if you encounter such a situation again, with a pitiable member of the Fox Clan, would you help them?"

Sally firmly declared, "Absolutely not."

She wouldn't be fooled again, like some sort of serial mark.

Frans smiled in satisfaction...

...

Three days went by in the blink of an eye, and there was still no news from the Holy Island; Sally's belly grew larger by the day.

She purchased two super-capacity Space Rings from the System Store, transferred all the items stored in the System Space into them, and then placed them inside the Space Ring given to her by Zong Silu.

This was everything she owned.

If anything untoward happened, she could leave something for her children.

Dressed in a suit, 009821 approached the gates of the Holy Palace.

He requested an audience with the Holy Monarch.

Frans had already learned from Sally about the System Administrator 009821, and he had some inkling about the purpose of his visit.

"Greetings, Your Majesty," 009821 bowed in respect.

"Please, be at ease, and take a seat," said Frans, observing him. "After the sudden volcanic eruption that destroyed the laboratory, We assumed the Holy War had come to its conclusion."

"We haven't collected sufficient data yet, so I'm afraid the Holy War will have to trouble Your Majesty once more."

"Oh? I hear that you have encountered Our queen."

"She is not Your Majesty's queen, just an experimental subject carrying a different system."

"In that case, We are in a difficult position."

"Is Your Majesty refusing to participate in the Holy War?" 009821 adjusted his glasses.

Frans smiled silently.

"Perhaps Your Majesty should look at this." 009821 took out a document radiating divine light from his briefcase.

——Covenant of the Offspring System experiment covering the whole Beast World continent.

Frans took it...

His expression grew increasingly grim.

This was a covenant personally signed by the Beast God, complete with his divine blood seal.

He had sold out the entire Beast World, all the Beast Clans that worshipped him, turning them into the most base creatures to be exploited!
