Chapter 556: Chapter 554: The Invincible Mother-Son Team
Sally had a child beside her, and her whole being brightened up a lot.
When undertaking quests, she always chose those that were fun or adventurous but not too thrilling.
As for Little Fengning, he often played games with Xiaohao and the others, but it was his first time playing with Sally, and he was overjoyed.
And in terms of skills, Sally might not play as well as Little Fengning.
At the beginning of the test in Twilight of the Gods, it was actually Little Fengning who knew a lot of the plot.
Although there were still some plot elements that Xiaomei hadn’t opened to him, such as Throne of Sin, full of plots and schemes, a path that led to the throne over countless skeletons…or the Forbidden Serpent Fruit, a chaotic Divine Clan in legends, giving birth to forbidden children, becoming the Dark Demon Race, step by step destroying the world…
“Mom—look, there’s a crab here,” Little Fengning exclaimed with delight.
Sally ran over with a bucket, “Where?”
“Here.” Little Fengning lifted a rock, barely smaller than him.
Underneath was a crab weighing at least five pounds, with a blue-red shell and a gold belly!
Sally’s eyes sparkled, “Lunch is settled, son!”
Little Fengning said, “I want spicy crab.”
“Okay.” Sally used a large net to scoop up the big crab and put it in the bucket.
Immediately, she spotted a smaller crab, “Son, your luck is really good.”
“Mom, there’s a black snake here.”
“A snake?” Sally looked over, and a wrist-thick, all-black snake raised its head at Little Fengning, flicking its tongue, poised to attack.
“Don’t move, son.” Sally pulled out her in-game weapon—the Heaven-Splitting Blade, and struck at the snake’s head!
The snake’s severed head flew towards Little Fengning.
Little Fengning didn’t dodge and caught the flying head, allowing the snake’s fangs to pierce into his little palm.
Sally’s breathing nearly stopped in fear, “Son—!”
“Mom, I remembered, this black snake is the key prop to trigger a special plot,” Little Fengning showed Sally his palm, which was unharmed, and the snake’s head had turned into a pitch-black key.
A floating door appeared.
There was a keyhole on the door.
Little Fengning handed the key to Sally, “Mom, for you.”
“…what special plot?” Sally asked, still shaken.
“World Tree,” Little Fengning replied.
Sally was astonished, “It’s actually this!”
She had been playing the game for some days and had never triggered the World Tree mission. Checking the world announcement, no one else had triggered this special plot either. Asking Xiaomei, Xiaomei said it was related to the snake and told her to play slowly.
Little Fengning eagerly said, “Mom, let’s go to the World Tree. There’s a big boss there~”
“Sure. After we beat this monster, we can leave this game,” Sally patted Little Fengning on the head.
“Mom, do you want to team up with others?” Little Fengning loved teaming up to fight monsters, the more people, the better.
But Sally, because of an unpleasant teaming experience last time, had been playing alone this time.
“No need, we are the super invincible mother-son team, sole winners of the reward!” Sally said with a laugh, making an encouraging gesture.
Little Fengning’s eyes lit up, “Right! Little Fengning wants to conquer challenges with mom.”
“Exactly.” Sally opened the door.
A world of red, giving off an oppressive and uncomfortable feeling, lay before them.
“Mom, something seems off here. I remember this place used to be a beautiful sea of flowers,” Little Fengning said.
“Clearly, this task has mutated,” Sally pulled Little Fengning behind her.
Little Fengning took a bunch of amulets from his Little Storage Bag, his Talent being sealed, he could only use amulets.
He first took out a Light Talisman from Xiaojiu.
Instantly, divine light descended, transforming the red space into a bright white, giving a sunlit and pure feeling, clearing away any darkness and filth.
“Xiaojiu’s Light Rule?”
“Hmm. In this kind of game, we always start by paving the way with Xiaojiu’s Light Rule, which immediately damages creatures with Dark Attributes. It can even purify weak little bosses directly.”
“What about now?” Sally cautiously guarded her surroundings.
Xiaomei said, “Host, I’ve detected the Mutated Venomous Snake Virus. Should I act, or would you like to do it?”
“Let me test it out with Little Fengning first. You keep an eye on us, and step in if we can’t handle it.”
“Understood, Host. The Mutated Venomous Snake Virus is hidden in the black thorny vines ahead. That leafless white withered tree is the World Tree. It’s being eroded by the virus, and as it wilts away, the world is also heading towards destruction.”
“OK, understood.” Sally rolled up her sleeves, and said to Little Fengning, “Our mother-son team officially starts now.”
“Yeah!” Little Fengning was incredibly happy.
He charged straight toward the black thorny vines, his hands releasing Amulets like scattering snowflakes…
All kinds of Innate Secret Techniques interwove into a massive net. It felt as if even a god could not escape from beneath this net of Secret Techniques.
Sally was dumbfounded, “So, this is how these little guys use their Amulets?”
One-hit kill.
Sally and Xiaomei didn’t even need to act, as the Mutated Venomous Snake Virus disintegrated into data.
“My wonderful son! You are absolutely amazing!” Sally hugged Little Fengning and showered him with kisses… not just his lips, but his entire face, even his eyebrows and eyes.
Little Fengning’s chubby face blushed as he said, “It’s nothing, really simple.”
“I’ve been playing this game for a long time and never found this level. Our Little Fengning not only triggered it but also helped me complete the quest—way too sweet.”
Completing the quest without breaking a sweat naturally made one very happy.
What thrilled her even more was that Little Fengning’s Talent had been sealed, but through interacting with his brothers and sisters, he had received their Talents’ help, possessing strong self-preservation abilities.
Only Xiaomei knew that she had faced huge pressure from Beast Husband, who disapproved but couldn’t object, and had forcefully made the children learn and play together…
Now, it seemed that this decision was correct.
What she wanted was simply for the children to help and love each other.
And they really did.
Although now, it was just some Amulets, which might not seem much. But watching them grow and seeing that they could help each other in the future was enough.
Little Fengning said, “Mom is so enthusiastic. Are you like this with dad too?”
“Your dad?” Sally was startled, then chuckled, “Of course not. He doesn’t compare to your place in Mom’s heart.”
Little Fengning contentedly kissed Sally’s face, “So Little Fengning is most important, right?”
“Right!” Sally picked him up.
The withered white World Tree, at some unknown point, sprouted tender green shoots…
The gray charred ground, too, sprouted a layer of fresh grass, which quickly budded and bloomed into colorful flowers.
A mechanical female voice suddenly appeared in the sky—
“To all players of Twilight of the Gods, the special storyline World Tree has been breached. Congratulations to the unbeatable mother-son team; you have obtained a bottle of Origin Divine Liquid, which can be synchronized with reality. Additionally, due to the World Tree storyline, changes have occurred in the Twilight of the Gods world. All players please log off within one hour.”
Inside Sally’s game space, a green liquid appeared, emitting a golden gentle glow.
She took it out and handed it to Little Fengning, “Drink this, son.”
Little Fengning immediately shook his head, “Let sister drink it.”
“Sister?” Sally looked down at her slightly protruding belly, “Are you saying this is your sister?”
“Yeah, dad will love it very much.”
“Alright.” Sally drank half the bottle of Origin Divine Liquid, which was also a reason she came, and handed the remaining half to Little Fengning, “This is for you.”
“I don’t want it.” Little Fengning continued to refuse, then looked towards the World Tree, “I want to eat that.”
“…” Sally seemed to see the World Tree shudder.
“Alright, but you can only eat some branches and leaves; it’s the origin power of this world.”
“Understood, Mom.” Little Fengning ran towards the World Tree.
Sally finished the Origin Divine Liquid, listening as Xiaomei told her that her pregnancy duration had shortened by 1,390 years, leaving only 1,217 years to go.
