Chapter 871 The Entertainment Industry, The Original Female Lead Killed by the Transmigrator (37)
At that time, the first king of Shenlin Kingdom was not present. In other words, he simply benefited from the fact that others had lost their luck. With the other side gaining and losing, how could he not stand out?
The king of the Divine Scale Kingdom is a snake, but they are different from ordinary snakes. They have a scale at their seven-inch mark that protects their vitals, making them almost vulnerable in battle.
According to their ancestral teachings passed down orally, they have dragon blood, and this scale is the dragon's reverse scale and a symbol of their bloodline.
As time went on, they intermarried and intermarried with other ethnic groups, and some of their offspring did not possess these special scales.
These children, despite receiving the same care and good upbringing, were disqualified from inheriting the throne because they lacked the distinctive scales.
Only those with scales are of the legitimate bloodline and have the opportunity to compete. This trait has now become a symbol of the royal family's direct line.
Of course, this difference is actually far more complex than it appears on the surface. It also hides a little-known secret—the snake race with scales possesses a special innate ability, the so-called "divine power," which is the ability to foresee the future.
Of course, this precognitive ability is not limitless or an arbitrary attempt to glimpse the future. It is more like a mysterious and limited talent that allows the possessor to foresee certain major events, but it is not entirely accurate or comprehensive.
Moreover, this information is usually presented in the form of dreams, as if traveling through a time tunnel, giving people a feeling that is both real and illusory, full of fantasy.
Of course, this is originally an orc world, so it can no longer be regarded as a normal world.
Although they focus more on technological development, they are able to freely switch between human and beast forms, which is different from other interstellar worlds.
Xiao Yun felt that these groups were probably originally demon beasts, but they did not have systematic cultivation techniques or a cultivation environment with sufficient spiritual energy. They could only explore on their own. The energy of that world was natural energy, so in the end, it turned into powerful spiritual energy and physical strength.
Other races also possess unique innate abilities. For example, the wolf clan is known for its powerful leadership and excellent teamwork; the leopard clan is known for its lightning speed; and the bear clan is renowned for its unparalleled strength. Each race has its own unique charm due to its special talents, together forming this fantastical world.
The first king of the Divine Scale Kingdom knew his own secrets. He had obtained the throne by chance, and he certainly couldn't let others know. What if others discovered this secret and used space beasts to deal with him?
So they secretly hid the Time-Space Beast on an uninhabited planet belonging to the Snake Clan, without ever revealing it to the outside world.
Hiding it is fine, but we can't let the Time-Space Beast go hungry. We still need it for later, so we started trying to feed it.
However, the Time-Space Beast doesn't eat. What it needs is energy, but not just any kind of energy. It took many experiments to find out what it needed: luck.
Back then, it was just a newborn cub, its true form being what it is now, only about ten meters long, making it relatively easy to hide. But after being fed the fortune of dozens of leaders, it grew up, and its need for fortune increased even more.
At that time, the Divine Scale King had already unified the various ethnic groups and established a country, and all of them were his subjects. He certainly couldn't take away their fortune anymore, as that would be undermining his own power. So he gathered a group of experts to study how to solve this problem.
Unexpectedly, they actually succeeded in their research. They even extended their research from extracting fortune to the study of the Time-Space Beast, using its ability to travel through time and space to create these systems for traversing time and space to absorb fortune.
Later, using this fortune to sustain it, the Time-Space Beast grew a bit bigger, its Time-Space Power became stronger and stronger, and it was able to create more and more systems, so it began to release them into more and more small worlds.
As the Time-Space Beast grew larger and its location became increasingly crowded with people, the planet could no longer hide it. As a result, the royal family of the Divine Scale Kingdom separated the researchers from the Time-Space Beast and sent them to two different places.
The Time-Space Beast was sent into space, where a space station had long been built. However, it still had to be moved from time to time to avoid powerful beings from other planes and to prevent the people of this world from discovering anything amiss.
Some might ask, why don't the Time-Space Beasts leave on their own or go somewhere else? Why do they have to obediently stay there and wait to be taken care of? Are they incapable of taking care of themselves?
It wasn't that it didn't want to leave, nor that it had been tamed by the orcs here, but rather that the little energy accumulated in its body was simply not enough for it to activate the power of spacetime. It couldn't even do it in another plane, let alone find its own kind.
If it couldn't find a kindred spirit, even if it went to another dimension, it might become even weaker without anyone to feed it. Rather than going to a strange world, it's better to stay here and wait for an opportunity. And now, it has finally found one.
To be honest, the Time-Space Beast didn't actually rely on luck to live. It was purely an accident. After arriving in this world, it accidentally absorbed luck to replenish its deficiencies. Only then did it realize that it could use this. The main reason is that there are no other energies here that it can use.
You have to understand that they travel freely through the vast and boundless starry sky. In that endless universe, where would there be any so-called luck for them to draw upon?
The energy source they rely on is the vast and mysterious power of the starry sky. This power is inexhaustible and has a long history, which can continuously nourish their powerful physique and unique abilities.
Moreover, the time and effort it took to convert its fortune into spacetime power was then sucked out by the people here and put into those systems. It could only continue to absorb fortune and convert it, thus creating a stable cycle.
Hearing this, Xiao Yun understood a little. This Void Beast was actually a type of Star Beast. She felt that the starry sky the other party mentioned was probably the void, and what it absorbed was not the power of the starry sky, but the chaotic energy in the void.
Just like the Void Beasts, she had long felt that there couldn't possibly be only Void Beasts in the Void, but she hadn't explored other parts of the Void before, so she hadn't encountered them.
Of course, the void is boundless and directionless, making it quite difficult to explore.
The evidence that proves her conjecture is that the space beast immediately formed a contract with Yao Yao as soon as it entered Yao Yao's space. Moreover, it seemed to be extremely familiar with the space, moving around with ease and freedom, as if it had returned to its most comfortable and at ease environment.
One can imagine that if this spacetime beast relied on ordinary spiritual energy to maintain its survival and mobility, then with Yao Yao's control over her own space, she would definitely have noticed something amiss. However, the fact is that, up to this point, Yao Yao has not shown any abnormality...
This shows that the spacetime beast needs a different kind of energy, and the only energy in the Yao Yao space is spiritual energy and chaotic energy.
Yes, there is also chaotic energy in Yao Yao's space.
As for why it exists? Of course, it was Xiao Yun who arranged it. As soon as her son's companion space appeared, this old mother immediately put several void beasts in it for him. Her space was upgraded quickly using this, so of course she wouldn't let her son miss out.
Knowing this, Xiao Yun felt relieved. Finding the reason was always more reassuring than being completely clueless.
Then she and Xiao Yu started watching the videos that Yao Yao had sent them in the space, and found that the environment and the indigenous people there were really quite interesting.
The so-called capital planet wasn't the cyberpunk kind of place I'd imagined. Perhaps it was because the planet was large but sparsely populated, with abundant resources. The streets were clean and spacious, and the only two- or three-story buildings were office buildings. The residential areas were all garden villas and the environment was quite beautiful.
Every now and then, you'll see a few children playing and frolicking by the roadside, wearing animal ears or small tails, and adults with smiling faces following them. It's clear that life here is peaceful and there is no hardship or war.
Of course, it's also possible that this is the capital planet, and the people living here are all from prominent families with high status. After all, there are more than 1,600 planets, and people of lower status must be on other planets.
As for industry and agriculture, they can be developed on other planets. As the political center where the royal family resides, the capital planet doesn't even need to develop its economy. Isn't it clean and comfortable?
As Yao Yao also said, if you want to buy things there, you don't need to go to a physical store; you can just place an order on the StarNet, and you can buy things from all the planets.
Once they got there, they got a StarBrain, logged onto the StarNet, and bought a lot of things unique to that area.
There are definitely mechs and spaceships, as well as various functional robots, and special foods, plants, animals, and minerals.
The small animals are the pets there, not cats and dogs, since some beastmen can also transform into cats and dogs. They are a unique type of beetle.
Yes, it's a beetle, about the size of a washbasin, with a colorful and very hard shell. It can carry a small child and even fly. It's quite novel.
The mechs over there are different; they're beast-shaped, with all sorts of beast-shaped ones. The ones they can buy are the common, basic models, while those of higher status use custom-made ones.
Even the standard model is very flexible to operate. The weapon must be very sharp, and in close combat, it is more lethal than the ones they bought in the interstellar world before.
Orders arrive on the same day, delivered by a dedicated starship. All these tasks are done by robots, and the goods can be delivered to your door after passing through security. Otherwise, you would have to pick them up yourself at an extraplanetary station.
As Xiao Yun was looking at these things, she felt a movement of her divine sense. It was the sense she had placed on the housekeeping robot, which would be activated when her parents returned.
She said to Yao Yao on the other end of the communicator, "Jingrui's grandparents are back. We have to go out. I'll contact you again when Jiaduobao comes back. Be careful over there."
Yao Yao nodded, "Okay, we've been keeping an eye on it. Mom, you can go out now, we'll contact you later."
They are currently on the main street of the capital planet. Because of advanced technology, it is not unusual for them to walk and talk on their communicators, and no one will even glance at them.
Xiao Yun hung up the communicator and called Jing Yan back. Then, she and Xiao Yu went to the villa and took Jing Rui out of the space. It was all over in an instant, and Jing Rui didn't even notice.
The couple carried their two children out of the room and saw that Mr. and Mrs. Xiao were already sitting on the sofa drinking tea brought by the housekeeping robot.
Seeing them come out, Xiao's mother glanced at the antique grandfather clock; it was already four o'clock. "Are you two still sleeping or playing inside? You two are really lazy. You don't even take the child out for a walk, or even just to the yard. It's not good for children to stay cooped up inside all the time. They need to breathe some fresh air and get some sunshine."
Xiao Yun nodded, "Okay, Mom, I'll let them get some sun. It's just that it's cold outside, and it's windy today."
As they talked, Xiao Yu and Xiao Yu carried the child and walked towards the west-facing French windows. The setting sun was shining through the windows, making it look warm and cozy.
Actually, winters aren't as cold as they used to be. This year, for example, there hasn't been any snow, and the daytime temperature is usually several degrees above zero. You can stay warm outside if you wear thick clothes.
It's just that it's very windy in Beijing, and it can be quite strong. When it's windy, it's best not to stay outside. Not only is it cold, but there's also sand, and you can't even open your eyes.
Their living room is very large, with a high ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows on the west and south sides. Xiao Yun put a small indoor playground in the southwest corner, surrounded by a safety railing, where some of the children's toys are also placed. They can play and sunbathe at the same time.
Jingyan had already run around freely in the space, so she didn't want to move much. When her mother put her down, she sat there obediently, quietly basking in the sun.
Jingrui, the chubby little boy, was unwilling. When Xiao Yu tried to put him down, he clung to his legs and clung to his father's arm, shaking his head and calling out "Daddy, Daddy!"
Xiao Yu knew that her son didn't want to play here, so she asked him what he wanted to do. The boy pointed straight at his mecha walker, indicating that he hadn't had enough of playing with it yet.
"You little rascal~" Xiao Yu picked him up again, gently patted his chubby bottom, and put him into the walker that was still next to the sofa.
Before he could even reach for the remote, the kid stretched out his chubby little hand, turned on the power switch, yelled "Elbow~," and darted off.
Of course, the speed wasn't particularly fast, because it was pre-programmed to prevent it from recklessly crashing into things. Since it has armor protection, the things in the house would suffer.
