Chapter 7: He wanted to toil secretly and then give everyone a

surprise.

The battleship, Wyvern.

Since Zhuang Zhou got on the battleship, his little face has been

covered in a dazed and shell-shocked expression.

How the heck did he arrive in space?

He was just visiting the mortal realm. The destination talisman

was even something given to him by the High God. It should

have directly transported him to his work location.

How did he transmigrate into an intergalactic era over two

thousand years later?

So the communication talisman wasn’t actually lost. It was just

impossible to be delivered.

The reason why the High God didn’t take away his divine position,

despite skipping work these last few days, most likely wasn’t

because the Eastern Region lacked Wealth Gods. Perhaps it’s

because it’s something that couldn’t be done……

Then will he be able to return?

Hanging his head low, Zhuang Zhou held the robot Xiao PoLan in

one hand and his Divine Image in the other. He sat at the resting

area that Wen XiaoYun had arranged for him, face completely

scrunched up and brows furrowed.

He didn’t notice that the people coming and going around him,

were all pretending to be very busy while secretly examining him.

“I heard from someone in Zhang Feng’s squad, that something

happened to his spaceship. He just landed on B-324 not long

ago.”

“Then he really had quite the luck to run into Boss. Otherwise,

with such severe radiation on B-324, he probably wouldn’t have

lived long.”

“I also heard that Boss personally helped him get dressed! And

treated him especially well!”

“He’s very good-looking…… The statue he’s holding in his hands

looks really similar to him.”

“Shh, Vice-admiral Cheng said that Boss told him, that’s our little

friend’s dad. He probably passed away due to some kind of

illness. You guys should talk quieter. Don’t let the kid hear and

feel sad.”

Sure enough, everyone started to talk even quieter. Especially

seeing the youth hugging ‘his father’s statue,’ and sitting there all

by his lonesome, everyone’s hearts felt even more

compassionate.

How can this kid be so well-behaved? He looked like he didn’t

want to trouble anyone or something. The admiral had told him to

sit there, so he’s been sitting there this entire time, not going

anywhere.

Cheng JinXue came over twice. Seeing Zhuang Zhou still sitting

there obediently, even he felt somewhat unable to bear it.

“Zhuang Zhou,” Zheng JinXue called him tentatively: “Do you still

remember me? I’m Cheng JinXue. We came back in the same car,

however, that time I was wearing protective gear.”

Zhuang Zhou looked at him briefly and nodded his head: “En…… I

remember you.”

Cheng JinXue said: “I told someone to clean out a room for you.

Your robot and…… and your father, do you want to settle them

first? I can help you carry them over.”

Zhuang Zhou’s face turned slightly red in embarrassment: “No

need, thank you.”

Right now, he didn’t even know how to tell them that this Divine

Image wasn’t actually his dad.

Xiao PoLan also didn’t want to part from Zhuang Zhou. When it

heard Cheng JinXue wanted to carry it, it immediately hugged

Zhuang Zhou’s arm tightly with its mechanical arms.

“Huh?” Noticing Xiao PoLan’s intelligence level, Cheng JinXue was

somewhat surprised. “It can understand my words?”

Zhuang Zhou nodded his head, saying: “Wen XiaoYun made it.

He’s very amazing. Xiao PoLan is very smart.”

Xiao PoLan proudly raised its head, and made a “di di di” noise,

looking rather conceited.

“Boss made it? No way.” Cheng JinXue said without even a

second thought: “Boss’s grades in the mecha field are not even

as good as mine! How can he make something like this.”

This little robot’s intelligence was something unseen in all of the

robots in the market right now.

It seemed to have its own ideas and thoughts, almost like it had

its own consciousness.

Actually right now, many robots and mechas were already very

intelligent, able to understand everything. They can respond to

everything as well.

However, no matter how intelligent they were, it was still all

programming. The system had already set up different replies

and responses to certain questions for the robot to use

accordingly.

Robots were also mass produced. Thus, no matter who asked the

question, be it yourself or someone else, as long as it was the

same question, the robots would all answer the same way.

Ultimately, it gave people a feeling like there was a bit of

something lacking.

The little robot that Zhuang Zhou carried in his arms wasn’t the

same. Although it didn’t seem to have a voice box and couldn’t

speak, its expression and movement were filled with human

characteristics, giving it a strange sense of liveliness. It just gave

a strange feeling like it wasn’t the same as other robots.

With a guilty conscience, Zhuang Zhou hugged the little robot

tighter and emphasized in a small voice: “He really did make it.

You can go ask him.”

Cheng JinXue couldn’t believe it. Did the boss really keep him in

the dark and secretly studied how to build a robot in private?

Cheng JinXue mumbled to himself: “Who would have imagined

that Boss’ skills were this impressive.”

“En En.” In order to throw off suspicions, Zhuang Zhou praised

rather energetically: “He must have wanted to toil secretly and

then give everyone a surprise.

Cheng JinXue: “......”

Cheng JinXue left with a complicated expression, completely

speechless.

Inside the medical facility, Wen XiaoYun just finished his

examination.

The battleship’s doctor looked grave: “Admiral-daren, can you

feel your current mental state right now?”

Wen XiaoYun said: “En, somewhat.”

“Then do you also know about the decrease in your psychic

level?. Right now, it’s only SS. It dropped an entire level.”

Wen XiaoYun’s voice was calm and composed: “I know.”

Under the high energy radiation of B-324, he was completely

exposed for so long. It was impossible for his body to not be

affected.

Energy radiation was not the same as other kinds of radiation.

Seeing Wen XiaoYun so calm, the doctor really didn’t know what

to say.

Despite being the only person in the galaxy with a SSS lvl psychic

strength, Wen XiaoYun was still affected by contamination from

energy radiation, causing his psychic level to drop!

If this news got out, it would cause a huge uproar!

Doctor White shook his head and sighed: “At least your physical

state is pretty good. You have a good constitution and can

recover easily in the healing chamber. Your psychic level might

not be so easy to recover. Not to mention, your psychic world has

already been contaminated by energy radiation. From now on,

I’m afraid…… it will continue to drop.”

A SS level was also very outstanding, however, it wasn’t one of a

kind.

Plus, after becoming contaminated by energy radiation, the level

would continue to decrease. Dropping to S level would be

extremely detrimental to Wen XiaoYun.

Wen XiaoYun came out of the healing chamber, put on his

clothes, and said nonchalantly: “It’s fine. Is the examination

complete?

“All complete. This is the result of the inspection.”

Wen XiaoYun accepted the report to take a look. It was pretty

much the same as what he had expected previously. Therefore,

he wasn’t too surprised.

He put away the report: “A little friend came back with me. In a

bit, you can help examine him as well.”

Doctor White’s eyes lit up: “Is this the one Vice-Admiral Cheng

was talking about, the little friend that was discovered on B-324?”

Giving an ‘en,’ Wen XiaoYun opened the newly paired AI

computer on his wrist to send a message to Cheng JinXue, telling

him to bring Zhuang Zhou over.

The message wasn’t even sent yet, Cheng JinXue’s voice can

already be heard outside.

“Boss, are you done with your check up?”

Wen XiaoYun put away his AI and went to open the door.

As soon as Cheng JinXue entered, he asked impatiently: “How is

it? Doctor White, is the boss' health alright?”

Doctor White gave Wen XiaoYun a glance.

Wen XiaoYun said calmly: “Pretty good, no major issues.”

Cheng JinXue let out a breath of relief: “That’s good, that’s good.

You stayed on B-324 for so long. We were all afraid you……”

Wen XiaoYun interrupted him and asked: “Where’s Zhuang

Zhou?”

“He’s still waiting for you in the resting area. I offered to take him

to his room, but he said he’s waiting for you to return before

going there.”

Hearing this, Wen XiaoYun felt faintly touched: “I will go fetch

him.”

Cheng JinXue followed behind Wen XiaoYun. Hesitating for a bit,

he inevitably asked: “Boss, the little robot that Zhuang Zhou was

holding……. Was it really made by you?”

“Xiao PoLan? En, it was me.”

“Really?! My god, boss, when did your skills become so

impressive?!”

Was it really like what Zhuang Zhou had said? Boss wanted to toil

secretly and then give everyone a surprise?

Footsteps halting, Wen XiaoYun gave him a somewhat

unimpressed look: “Aren’t you perfectly aware of my skill level?”

The two people went to the same military school.

Cheng JinXue said: “It’s because I know. That’s why I feel so

astonished!”

Wen XiaoYun said: “I feel strange about this too. Do you think a

robot can upgrade itself?”

Cheng JinXue said: “I’d rather believe that you had this skill.”

Wen XiaoYun: “.......”

He was disinclined to converse with Cheng JinXue any further and

returned to the resting area.

Seeing Wen XiaoYun come back, Zhuang Zhou’s eyes lit up: “Wen

XiaoYun, you’re back.”

“En.” Wen XiaoYun’s voice lowered somewhat: “Sorry, the

examination took a bit too long.”

“It’s fine. Is your body alright?” Zhuang Zhou was very

concerned.

“Not too bad.” Wen XiaoYun’s voice was calm and composed:

“What were you doing just now?”

Zhuang Zhou said in a small voice: “Think about some things.”

Wen XiaoYun asked: “What things?”

Zhuang Zhou thought briefly. Here, he was most familiar with

Wen XiaoYun. Therefore, pressing his lips together briefly, he said

dejectedly: “I might not be able to return home.”

Wen XiaoYun froze for a second. He took a glance at the statue in

Zhuang Zhou’s hand.

Perhaps it wasn’t being unable to return home, but rather having

no home to return to.

After all, his closest relative was currently in his hand right now.

Wen XiaoYun didn’t really want to ask Zhuang Zhou: what about

your mother?

He was afraid to make the youth recall more unpleasant

memories.

Rubbing Zhuang Zhou on the head, Wen XiaoYun said: “Then just

think of here as your home. Your home can be wherever you are

currently.”

This sentence made Zhuang Zhou see the light.

That’s right. His workplace can be wherever he was currently.

The High God said before, when a god received a lot of Faith,

their divine powers can transcend the heavens!

If he gained the faith of a lot of people, he might acquire

extraordinary divine powers to help him return home!

As if relieved from a heavy burden, Zhuang Zhou gave Wen

XiaoYun a smile: “Wen XiaoYun, thank you! You’re right!”

Seeing his smiling face, Wen XiaoYun’s thin lips raised faintly.

That night.

Wen XiaoYun finally didn’t have any dreams.

He, who had dreamt of the youth continuously for four nights

straight already, finally didn’t dream about Zhuang Zhou again

tonight.

Yet Wen XiaoYun wasn’t actually happy about this.

Because after he woke up, he discovered that 2/3 of the people

on the battleship all had a dream.

Furthermore, they seemed…… to have…… all dreamt about the

same person?

Wen XiaoYun looked expressionlessly at Cheng JinXue: “Repeat

yourself again. Who did you see in your dream?”
