Food Ration Included? (Chapter 182)
Upon hearing Han Lingyue express concerns about the future growth of the child, Gu Luoyu remained calm and unperturbed. In her heart, Ye Sheng came first.
As for the child?
Apart from it being the fruit of her and Ye Sheng's love, Gu Luoyu had no extra affection to spare for anyone else.
Or perhaps, apart from Ye Sheng being able to enter her heart, even her own child was an unknown...
Regarding this, Gu Luoyu knew she was different from others, but most espers were like this. As they grew older, their emotions would become extreme.
Either they were crazily emotional, or they were cold and cruel.
Being able to maintain rationality was already quite good.
However, the official base's recent research on espers was not a waste of time; there had been some progress, as evidenced by the current Han Lingyue standing before her.
Judging by the number of years she had been an esper, she shouldn't be able to joke around like this now.
“When your child is born, why not let me be their godmother! I'll give the child a big red envelope, and they can strut around the safe zone with no problem, with a godmother who has power and influence!”
Gu Luoyu glanced at the excited Han Lingyue, then sneered, ruthlessly stating, “Forget it, you might be dead by then.”
“...”
Hearing Gu Luoyu pour cold water on her, Han Lingyue rolled her eyes in silence, not refuting.
Because it was true.
Those living in the wasteland never knew how long they would live, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after.
Even though espers were stronger than ordinary people, the greater their abilities, the greater their responsibilities.
And the higher the risk of facing death.
But they were already used to it and didn't find it particularly noteworthy... Living one more day was a bonus!
...
Since following Esper Squad 1 1 to the temporary camp, the teams assigned to transport supplies hadn't been in a hurry to leave. Under permitted circumstances, they wandered around daily.
Some even went to great lengths, using energy stones to pave the way and build relationships with the members of the Esper Squad 1s.
Hoping to gain some special information.
Among them, Mo Lin, a somewhat famous information broker, naturally couldn't stay idle.
However, his assets had been nearly depleted after forming his team, and he couldn't compete with the well-funded team leaders.
But...
He had no money, but he had people.
As the only team that recruited espers, not only did the other teams dare not offend him, but even the members of the Esper Squad 1 frequently visited these days, extremely curious about Gu Luoyu.
After all, she was a fierce person who could hold her own against their leader, Han Lingyue!
Such a figure was definitely not an unknown.
However, in reality, she was indeed unknown... because the name Gu Luoyu had never been heard before. The surname 'Gu,' however, was special, easily reminding one of the prosperous Gu family due to Erensu.
Although the family had quickly declined after Erensu's disappearance, a starved camel was still bigger than a horse!
But upon detailed inquiry, it was found that Gu Luoyu had no connection to the Gu family, and the trail went cold. If they wanted to get to the bottom of it, they would have to ask the person directly.
But, being fellow espers, they naturally knew not to approach her without caution.
Otherwise, they might accidentally get killed... The stronger the esper, the more unstable their psyche. People like their leader Han Lingyue, who maintained rationality through medication, were rare.
Apart from the compatibility between the medication and the individual, the severe side effects of the drugs were hard to endure.
Their leader Han was too harsh on herself!
Although they didn't get much information from Mo Lin, as the leader who could recruit such a formidable esper, the members of the Esper Squad 1 treated him with some courtesy, allowing Mo Lin to gain something without spending a single credit.
This made him grin from ear to ear.
Thinking that from now on, Gu Luoyu would be his living ancestor!
While Mo Lin was basking in his joy, Ye Sheng was feeling a bit bored.
Gu Luoyu had been very busy these past few days, not only using her black mental energy to devour the hearts of contaminated creatures but also accepting Han Lingyue's invitation to explore the deep wilderness to investigate the situation of the contaminated creatures.
But despite being so busy, she insisted on returning at night to sleep with her.
Thinking of Gu Luoyu's thoughtfulness, Ye Sheng couldn't help but smile sweetly.
She hummed a tune, her mood light, and took the now larger Ye Heiya for a walk near the camp, suddenly finding the surrounding contaminated plants endearingly green.
Hehe~
Her relationship with Gu Luoyu had progressed absurdly fast. They had just confirmed their relationship when an accident happened, and now they even had a child together... Although it was just an embryo, it still counted as being pregnant.
Ye Sheng had once worried about the dangers of carrying the child of an esper, but it never reached the point of depression.
She was different from others; with her lottery golden finger, there would always be a way.
Especially since she had collected a vast amount of energy stones in the collapsed underground tunnel, so she didn't even need to worry about the credits required for the lottery.
It felt like this child came with its own provisions...
'Gugu gu'
Just as Ye Sheng was thinking about how bored she was recently and whether to try her luck with the lottery, Ye Heiya suddenly let out a loud cry, then flapped its now much larger wings vigorously, its shiny black eyes lighting up like lamps.
The whole goose suddenly darted off, startling Ye Sheng, who hurriedly shouted, “Ye Heiya, where are you going? Stop, stop, don't go too far!”
Since they were in the area patrolled by Esper Squad 1, who conducted several patrols daily, most of the nearby polluted creatures had been killed.
Plus, Ye Sheng herself had powerful weapons like marble bombs, so she could fully protect herself, which was why she could take the goose out for a walk alone.
But they couldn't go too far.
Otherwise, if they were unlucky enough to encounter an S-class contaminated creature, Ye Sheng felt she wouldn't even be enough to fill its teeth.
However, Ye Heiya seemed like it had been injected with a stimulant, silently continuing to run forward at a speed that would soon make it disappear from sight.
Ye Sheng stomped her foot in frustration, thought for a moment, and then decided to chase after it.
No choice, she couldn't just abandon her pet.
With the lottery golden finger, nothing should happen... Thinking this, Ye Sheng never expected that in just ten minutes, she would be tied up by a several-meter-tall polluted plant.
And she was being swung back and forth in the air, like riding a free pirate ship.
Ye Heiya, on the other hand, was the main focus, being whipped by the polluted plant until it became a blur, now letting out gurgling cries of pain. Ye Sheng thought expressionlessly that this swan had it coming.
Serves it right!
But she couldn't die here; Gu Luoyu was waiting for her to return!
