Chapter 68 -68: Strange
“What now? She’s been unconscious this whole time…”
“Why was there no one with her at the time? Kerry?”
“…I really didn’t hear anything, not a single sound; I came out of the tent and saw her lying on the moisture-proof mat…”
“What’s with these marks on the ground? This looks like something big.”
“Enough, don’t blame Kerry. We weren’t far away, only about forty meters or so. If there really was something big, we should have heard it too.”
“Should we feed her some medicine first? Brother Han?”
“Don’t mess around, let Brother Han stay with Jiaojiao.”
“Alright, alright, let’s all go outside. The tent is so small; let’s give Jiaojiao some room to breathe.”
“I’m going to heat up some water; drinking hot water is always good.”
“……”
Han Jiaojiao’s head hurt, and there were many voices around her ears. She heard Yan Xiao’s voice, Lu Changyuan’s voice, Xiao Jian’s voice, Bai Kairui’s voice… What about Brother? Wasn’t Brother there?… Why couldn’t she hear Brother’s voice…
She really wanted to open her eyes, but those fragmented images kept churning in her mind, memories from her past life, memories from this life, becoming a confused mess; her ears buzzed noisily, how annoying!
She remembered that enormous creature, she could vaguely see a bit of Pepper in its color, a deep, deep purple… But how had it appeared before her so silently?
Why was it looking for her? In her past life, when she saw it, its body was almost dried up, completely hollow inside, leaving only a thin shell. Why was it seeking her out in this life? Could it see those past scenes? Did it know she would take care of its children? But what about itself? If it was still alive and well now, why wouldn’t it take care of them itself?
So many questions, so much confusion.
However, if something had happened to it, Han Jiaojiao felt that she would still go; like in her previous life, she would take those eggs and take good care of them.
Han Jiaojiao opened her eyes, and what met her gaze was Han Yi’s slightly pale face, his lips pressed thin, his eyes red with bloodshot lines, staring intently at Han Jiaojiao, until she opened her eyes, and then his face relaxed slightly.

“Brother.” Han Jiaojiao found his appearance a bit scary, she sat up and touched his forehead, “Are you sick? You look so pale…”
Han Yi looked at her for a long time, his voice hoarse, “You’ve been unconscious for the whole night.”
Han Jiaojiao smiled and said, “I was just tired and fell asleep, it’s not as scary as you make it sound.” After speaking, she stretched out her hand to gently stroke the bruise in his heart, feeling very pitying, “Brother, did you stay awake all night? Why don’t you lie down and sleep for a while?”
If she had just been asleep, how could she have not been roused?
Han Yi’s heart felt a tinge of bitterness, but he didn’t show it, and said with a faint smile, “Okay, keep Brother company for a bit.”
“Mhm.” Han Jiaojiao obediently nodded.
It wasn’t until Han Yi lay on his side that Han Jiaojiao saw the four eggs placed behind him, each as big as a goose egg but rounder and smoother than goose eggs.
Han Jiaojiao was immediately stunned.
“Brother, these eggs…” Could it be that it came to find her just for… for…
Han Jiaojiao’s heart suddenly tightened—could it have predicted its own death?! So it… how is that possible?! Such a huge creature, how could it easily die?!
Han Yi’s expression darkened, seeing the look on Han Jiaojiao’s face, he knew something must have happened last night. Although he wasn’t by her side, his spiritual power had been covering this area all along. What creature could evade his “Mental Search”? Clearly, his sister probably knew the answer.
“When I came back, you had these eggs by your side. Who brought them? Does the little one know?”
“It’s them…” Han Jiaojiao wanted to say it was them, but she found herself unable to explain the situation, clinging tightly to Han Yi’s arm, her words coming out nonsensical, “It… I don’t know how to say this, I don’t know what it is… but, but… why would it do this… I… I don’t know…”
Han Yi gently patted her back, coaxing, “Don’t rush, tell brother slowly, okay?”
Han Jiaojiao took a deep breath, then another, before she felt her emotions calm somewhat, “It’s them, I saw it in my dreams, but in the dreams, it is dead… I don’t know how to explain this to you, brother, but believe me, it had no ill intentions. In the dream, it helped me.”
“What is it?” Han Yi asked her.
But Han Jiaojiao shook her head, “I really don’t know, brother, at first I thought it was some kind of Mutant Plant, but then, I felt it might actually be an animal.”
Han Yi fell into thought.
Holding his hand, Han Jiaojiao said, “Brother, I want to nurture these eggs, is that okay? They saved my life in the dream, they won’t harm us but help us. Brother, do you believe me?”
Han Yi smiled at her gently, “Of course, we’ll keep them.” She didn’t hide or conceal anything, and her sincerity made Han Yi feel a little better.
Han Jiaojiao stayed with Han Yi for a while longer, dozing off to the gradual stir and voices outside, signaling that everyone must be waking up.
She heard Xiao Jian calling outside, “Yan Xiao, why did you and Kerry go so far just to brush your teeth?”
Yan Xiao’s voice came from afar, “Jiaojiao said this tree is a jujube tree, we’re going to water it!”
Han Jiaojiao, still inside the tent, couldn’t help but laugh quietly. Although this group was about the same age as her brother, they sometimes seemed so childish…
The new day went by smoothly, they didn’t encounter any people, nor dangerous creatures, apart from some difficult parts of the road. The travel convoy finally arrived at their destination at noon. It was a small county town called Guazhou County. On the outskirts of the town was an abandoned factory, where Han Yi’s private warehouse was hidden.
Han Yi held Han Jiaojiao’s hand, their fingers tightly interlocked, as a space vortex slowly spiraled in front of them, growing larger and larger. Likely to facilitate the loading of a large quantity of items quickly, Han Yi carefully controlled the expansion of the vortex, only stopping when it was almost taller than the warehouse.
No one had ever seen a vortex grow to such a size. Yan Xiao and Bai Kairui both instinctively stepped back, with Yan Xiao muttering quietly, “It can’t be infinitely large, can it… wouldn’t that mean even Earth could fit inside?”
Lu Changyuan then said, “Isn’t Earth itself situated in a space like this?”
Yan Xiao and Bai Kairui both turned pale, a chilling thought indeed!
Han Yi frowned slightly and said, “Go open the warehouse doors.”
Xiao Jian, Yan Xiao, Bai Kairui, and Lu Changyuan turned to open the warehouse doors, six in total, each one packed full. Once all the doors were wide open and Yan Xiao and the others retreated to a safe distance, they saw the items from the warehouse flying out at a great speed, each box disappearing into the vortex without a trace.
Han Jiaojiao noticed that the supplies Lu Changyuan had purchased for Han Yi included not only food and daily necessities but more importantly, a variety of large machinery and equipment. Most of it was unrecognizable to her, except for solar collectors. The last warehouse was filled entirely with vehicles, various off-road vehicles, military trucks, and transport lorries.
Lu Changyuan remarked somberly, “Had I known we had such a space, who would have bothered with so many transport vehicles…”
Xiao Jian and Yan Xiao, having participated in the transport process, were unsurprised by the sheer volume of supplies, while Bai Kairui wore an expression that screamed “holy crap,” inwardly rejoicing at having hitched his wagon to such formidable coattails—elephant-sized ones at that!
