Chapter 458: Chapter 458: Fighting a war and having a baby at the same time?
Su Wan could smell her own blood, and on the other side, Sheng An was frantically busy along with Qiao.
"Master," the Vermilion Bird spoke in Su Wan’s ear, "I have connected to Ouyang Qing. She will provide guidance online. Should I transfer the connection so Sheng An and the others can hear?"
"Yes."
Before long, Ouyang Qing’s voice echoed throughout the entire medical bay, methodically instructing Sheng An and Qiao on what needed to be done and what they should pay attention to.
In conclusion, Ouyang Qing said to Su Wan, "Xiaowan, your Beast Transformation Level is very high, and your body is in good shape. Even if your superpower is overexerted, both you and the child will be fine. Just relax."
"Sister Ouyang, thank you. I’m okay," Su Wan replied.
Through the projector, Ouyang Qing saw that Su Wan’s expression was indeed very calm, which allowed her to breathe a sigh of relief.
She chatted with Su Wan to distract her.
"Xiaowan, does Commander Gu know you’re giving birth?"
"He doesn’t know yet."
As the pain in her body started to set in, Su Wan thought of Gu Jue and tried to stay calm.
This was probably the most crucial moment; she must not disturb Ajue. Moreover, Su Wan felt that the baby inside her was a sensible child and wouldn’t cause any trouble at this time!
Empire Main Star, Imperial Palace.
Due to the incoming threats, Queen Luo Manya had taken the two children to a safer room. After the last encounter with danger, Gu Zilan was so frightened that he had specially refurbished an underground safe room with a very high safety coefficient.
Little Gu Chen sat there, holding a mecha toy in his hand, staring eagerly towards the exit.
Gu Ruanruan walked over. "Xiaochen, what’s wrong?"
"I’m worried about my parents..." Little Gu Chen said, frowning with his fluffy ears squeezed together, "I don’t know why, I just feel especially anxious and uncomfortable."
Gu Ruanruan, now much taller than Little Gu Chen, reached out to hold his hand. "Don’t worry, your parents are such powerful people, they are the strongest in our entire Empire, nothing will happen to them!"
"But, but Mom is about to give birth to my little sister," Little Gu Chen finally identified the source of his anxiety. His father was extremely capable, he knew that; in this universe, no one could defeat his father.
His mother was also powerful, but...
Little Gu Chen turned his head to speak to Queen Luo Manya, who was sitting not far away, "Does giving birth to a baby make someone less powerful?"
Luo Manya nodded and said gently, "Xiaochen, don’t worry. Your mother didn’t join the mission to exterminate the Insectoids. She was just sniping Insectoids near the protective layer, not much danger. The Insectoids near the protective layer have now been reduced to less than twenty percent."
"Soon, these Star Warriors will come back."
Little Gu Chen bit his lip and nodded pitifully.
After hearing this, Gu Ruanruan sighed, "When can I grow up and then be able to join everyone in protecting our Empire Planet?"
Luo Manya embraced the two children in her arms.
They were good children, and their Empire Planet had many more good children; they would surely get through this.
Although she comforted Little Gu Chen, as soon as Luo Manya sent the two children away, she turned around and communicated with Gu Zilan.
Gu Zilan answered quickly, "Manya, what has happened?"
"Nothing, don’t worry, Ruanruan and Xiaochen are both very safe. I was thinking, since there are not so many Insectoids by the protective layer outside now, could you give the order for Su Wan’s squad to return?"
"She’s about to give birth any moment now; it was supposed to happen these days. I’m worried about her body... Uncle is fighting at the Insectoid Base, we need to help him take good care of Su Wan!"
Gu Zilan had been concerned about this very issue. Although he also knew Su Wan was powerful, she was still a pregnant woman!
He said, "Yeah, I’ll get Agros to call back the ninth squad right away."
When Agros heard Gu Zilan’s order, he didn’t ask any questions and immediately contacted the ninth squad’s starship.
Just then, Pandora happened to be the one who got on the communication.
Pandora: "Brother, are you issuing a new order? We’ve taken out all the Insectoids near this entrance!"
Agros: "I’m going to get the other squads to take care of this entrance. You must return to the main star immediately."
Pandora was stunned, "Why, brother?"
Agros: "This is an order from His Highness Gu Zilan."
With the Commander away, the two divisions of the Royal Star Fleet on the main star were both under Gu Zilan’s command.
Pandora said with some difficulty, "Does it have to be now? But Xiaowan is giving birth, and when we come back through the protective layer, the energy fluctuations and high radiation will affect her!"
"What?!"
Agros was taken aback and immediately had Pandora’s team stand by, turning around to report the situation to Gu Zilan.
Then... Gu Zilan was stunned too!!!
He rubbed his face hard, "Su Wan, you and the child must both be safe and sound!"
Still worried, Gu Zilan had Agros dispatch other starships to protect the ninth squad’s starship since the pressure from the Insectoid attacks had lessened a lot.
Gu Zilan was a bit worried; should he tell Uncle about this?
After thinking it over, he decided it was necessary to inform Uncle, but instead of direct brain communication, which could disturb Uncle during combat, Gu Zilan had the AI Aiwei contact Uncle’s AI White Tiger.
A moment ago, White Tiger had been precisely scanning the Insectoid’s attack patterns across the entire base. The next moment, after receiving the message from Aiwei, the artificial intelligence nearly exploded!
The wife is fighting and giving birth at the same time?!
By this time, Gu Jue had already led his men into the heart of the Insectoid Base. He had just eliminated Doris’s most formidable Insectoid subordinate, a poisonous spider Insectoid with venom and the ability to spin webs to bind people — a very dangerous opponent.
But Gu Jue had used a freezing cone to pierce the opponent’s heart.
With several high-level Insectoids dead, the base was in complete disarray. Li Rui’s calm voice was reporting to Gu Jue, "Boss, we have gained control over this Base Star’s domain!"
That is to say, this Base Star was now open to everyone.
Gu Jue grunted his acknowledgement and ordered his men to search around while he continued to push forward.
Without any hesitation, White Tiger immediately relayed the news sent by Aiwei to Gu Jue!
"Master, the lady is giving birth. She is in labor now. Her cries are loud, and their starship is still in combat; there’s no time to return. The lady started to have labor distress and went ahead with the childbirth right on the starship!"
Gu Jue paused in his steps, "You immediately get me Vermilion Bird."
"Yes!"
