Starting with Crimson

Gurgle! ~

Li Qingyu, still asleep, reached out and touched his belly, which had flattened out again.

Where are the children?!

Where is my eight-month-old baby?!

Empress... how cruel you are...

This is the Emperor's offspring! You are trying to extinguish the last bloodline of our Aijiu Gioro clan!

*Sobbing*

Uh....

Something seems off...

Holy crap!!!

Li Qingyu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He sat up abruptly on the sofa and flung the husky off his head.

Huh, why did you say "again"?

Bang! ~

Aww! ~

Thump! ~

A pitiful bark came from the corner of the wall, accompanied by the sound of a storage bin being overturned.

That scared me to death.

Li Qingyu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

This nightmare was scarier than watching a horror movie! I even dreamt that I was a concubine in the palace.

Palace intrigue is terrifying.

Oh no... it's terrifying to become a woman...

Pregnancy is even more terrifying.

I must have slept too much these past two days; I can't sleep anymore.

My mom said that sleeping too much can cause nightmares, and it seems that's true.

Li Qingyu looked up at the sky outside the window.

Well, it's daytime anyway.

I opened the task panel and checked the time.

It's noon.

It's lunchtime.

It's time to eat.

Li Qingyu propped herself up from the sofa, put on her slippers, and tidied her messy hair.

Li Qingyu, who was about to go to the kitchen to find something to eat, had only taken two steps when he caught a glimpse of the grass outside the Pineapple Castle window.

all of a sudden.

Li Qingyu was stunned.

Oh my god!?

Where did my huge green grassland go?

Li Qingyu hurriedly ran to the window, ignoring Qiqi's strange gaze, pressed his face against the glass, and stared wide-eyed out.

The lush green meadow that once stood there has vanished.

Instead, a vast expanse of golden rice paddies stretched out, swaying gracefully in the wind.

Rice!?

Firecracker rice paddies!?

Do I grow this much rice?!

Kiki only sowed a handful of seeds... just that one handful....

How come it suddenly grew so much? Does this rice even reproduce on its own?

[Crimson: Every explosion of firecrackers over the rice paddies is actually sowing seeds. Your precious daughter has once again used nature's bounty to accelerate the growth of these rice seeds.]

[Naturally, it became what it is now.]

[By the way, you slept like a log this morning, even though it was like an army corps was fighting outside, you didn't wake up.]

What the hell could you possibly know?

Crimson, you seem a bit irritable today.

Okay, I do have a vague recollection of it; it sounded like there was some kind of buzzing sound.

I was sleeping this morning, so I don't remember very clearly.

Ugh, why did I have to plant firecracker rice for no reason?

This has all been turned into farmland, can it still be considered an oasis?

Li Qingyu realized something was wrong.

I quickly opened the task panel and looked at the Oasis leaderboard.

Don't ruin Oasis yourself, or the Chinese people will criticize me to death in the live stream.

[Oasis Ranking List]

【1. Li Qingyu, the Pet Civilization】

【2. Abyss Civilization Padis】

【3. The Magical Pet Civilization of Chu Xuan】

【4. Florus, the Giant Tree Civilization】

5. The Witch Civilization of Muxi

...

Phew, thank goodness.

Li Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief after looking at the rankings.

It seems that rice paddies can be considered a kind of oasis.

But what happened to Colonel Chu? How did he drop to third place?

This must make me seem so outstanding, right?

Hahaha....

Keep it low-key...

I can't laugh out loud, or the viewers of the live stream will think I'm an idiot.

Li Qingyu tried his best to suppress his smile.

[Crimson: You still have the nerve to laugh? What's so outstanding about you? It's been three days, and all you've done is sleep and eat.]

[They only ask me when they encounter problems, and only unleash the hounds when they encounter monsters.]

[And you kept the door closed while letting the dog out.]

Don't you have any self-awareness?!

Hey, Crimson, you seem unusually harsh today. Where did the silly you from yesterday go?

I'm too lazy to argue with you.

Besides, I'm just giving you guys a chance to shine.

If I, who am invincible, were to take action, wouldn't you all lose any sense of participation?

What's the point then? It's completely pointless for a live stream.

[Crimson: Shamelessness is truly invincible; I must admit that.]

Li Qingyu touched his dough, decided to ignore Shen Hong who was being unusually harsh today, and turned to walk towards the Pineapple Castle kitchen.

People are iron rice is steel.

Eating is the most important thing.

If you're not in a hurry to eat, there's something wrong with your brain.

Just as Li Qingyu turned around, neither the viewers in the live stream nor Crimson Eyes noticed.

A flash of blue light disappeared in Li Qingyu's eyes.

Only the husky seemed to sense something, raising its head from the storage bin in the corner and looking towards where Li Qingyu was.

...................................

China's Special Security Bureau.

Civilization Conquest Tournament, Temporary Strategic Analysis Room.

"The contestant from Jinghai City is still in first place."

The head of the Special Security Bureau sat calmly in the main seat of the conference room, watching Li Qingyu in the live broadcast room, and casually asked, "Three days have passed, and you still haven't found anything?"

"No, all his records from childhood to adulthood show that he was indeed just a simple, ordinary person."

The female secretary standing next to Number One had short, ear-length hair, wore a fitted military green work uniform, and held a black folder as she spoke calmly.

"We have analyzed all the footage of him that was captured on surveillance footage over the past ten years."

"He has not demonstrated any superpowers, has not learned any ancient martial arts, has not shown any signs of modification, has not been missing, has not made any strange inventions, has not made any amazing words or deeds, and has not experienced any emotional setbacks."

"The entire trajectory of growth is crystal clear."

The female secretary paused for a moment, then continued, "In short, he is just an ordinary person born and raised in China."

"And, he's never been in a relationship," the female secretary added.

The person in charge rested his elbows on the table, clasped his hands under his chin, and muttered to himself with a deep expression, "Could it be... that he really was just incredibly lucky?"

"So easy that you reached number one on the Oasis leaderboard?"

"So good that you can just run around in the desert and find a treasure chest?"

"So good that the two cards in the preparation space will automatically appear in front of him?"

"So nice that they even brought chairs and a foot bath into the preparation space?"

"Chu Xuan was also teleported away while sitting right in front of us. Why didn't he take his chair with him?"

"Not to mention the other contestants in the preparation area, none of them came sitting down, is he the only exception?"

"Is he really just an ordinary person who awakened his evolutionary talent in the preparation space and had incredibly good luck?"

Yes, the Special Security Bureau had already analyzed the approximate effects of Li Qingyu acquiring the talent.

Although he is very strong, he is also clearly limited, as can be seen from the fact that he always licks things and sleeps.

seemingly....

He can only use this evolutionary talent after he has licked the yellow stuff...

And I also need to sleep to recover...
