[Host, the system update will take approximately forty-eight hours.]
[Another virus?]
[No, it's routine maintenance. After the system upgrade, the update ti will be significantly reduced.]
[I'm just 1% away from leveling up... Ah! No, I need to leave here quickly, I can't be buried again. How long was I 'dead' this ti?]
[Twenty minutes.]
[Why did it take so long?]
[One minute inside the system equals ten minutes outside. You were in System Space for two minutes, which equates to twenty minutes outside.]
[No wonder last ti, I felt it wasn't very long, but Ming Linyuan had already buried . I have to get out of here quickly.]
Sally's soul returned to her body, her eyes slowly opened, and she moved her fingers. Just as she was about to call for Zong Silu, she saw a flash of blue before her eyes and felt a sharp pain in her neck, sinking into unconsciousness.
...
Blue skies, white clouds, and the boundless sea with a long, soft sandy beach.
After taking the Rejuvenation Pill, Sally's body had fully recovered.
She was still wearing the green maternity dress she wore during childbirth, with dark patches on the back that were likely bloodstains left from giving birth.
The system was still updating, and wouldn't be operational for another thirty-six hours.
Barefoot with snow-white, slender feet, Sally stepped onto the soft sand, looking around in confusion, "Hello— is anyone there?"
There was no response.
Frowning, Sally cursed the timing of Xiaoi's update; otherwise, she could have just Teleported back.
She had no choice but to wait another thirty-six hours.
She searched through the System Space and found a tent, a complintary item from the Birth Gift Pack, which now ca in handy.
It took so effort, but finally, the tent was set up.
Sitting on the accompanying blanket, she opened a can of fruit and started eating while gazing at the seascape, recalling the blue shadow that flashed before her eyes upon waking and the pain in her neck...
She must have been kidnapped.
Who kidnapped her?
Zi Qiaoqiao? Probably not. Although Sally didn't know how she had offended this little princess, Zi Qiaoqiao was after her life and certainly wouldn't let her live.
The blue shadow... Blue, among the people she knew, there seed to be one related to blue, a male with blue hair and blue eyes, Rong Wu.
Was it Rong Wu who kidnapped her?
But why?
Maybe she could ask him in person.
The calm sea suddenly parted, revealing a sandy path on the seabed.
Carrying so fish, Rong Wu walked up from the depths, his clothes and even his hair not wet at all.
Sally put away the can in her hand. Since the tent was already set up and he had seen it, she didn't bother with it.
"Rong Wu, where is this? I want to go back," Sally said with a cold voice.
Rong Wu laughed, with a sudden beauty that was startling, "That won't do. I went to great lengths to bring you from the Eastern District's Imperial Capital to the Southern District."
"This is the Southern District?" Sally frowned.
"The Southern District has many seas and lakes; it's the Domain of Aquatic Beastn. However, Aquatic Beastn almost never leave the water in their lives, so they don't interfere with the disputes on land."
"You are an Aquatic Beastman."
"I am an Amphibious Beastman. I can live in both water and on land."
"Amphibious? What's your true form?" Sally pondered the amphibious animals she knew—frogs, crocodiles, hippos…
Suddenly, Rong Wu Teleported in front of her, his gaze falling on her slender and flat belly, not looking at all like that of a female who had just given birth, "Have a child for , then you'll find out."
Sally retorted, "You rejected before."
Rong Wu replied, "Now I've changed my mind."
Unmoved, Sally said firmly, "Sorry! I live by one principle—that is, 'You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.' Expecting to have your child is impossible now!"
