Transmigrated as a Rare Female: Beast Husbands Love Me Exclusively-Chapter 123: The Gift Left Behind

"Go ahead, it’s right there, but whether you can get it depends on your luck."

Ruan Ying watched Wen’s departing silhouette and muttered, "Do robots have luck?"

"Finally, I’m the only one left, but it’s still not enough."

She wheeled herself to the floor-to-ceiling window. It was a one-way glass, unlikely to be noticed unless broken.

She gazed into the wilderness, just like countless yesterdays.

The wind blew over the low grass, the warm sun was high.

How beautiful it was.

Why should she always be controlled, bear infamy, or be plagued by illness?

Her brown-black eyes held the wilderness, the distance, the interstellar.

She didn’t regret it. If she could develop the first immortality, she could surely create a second and third.

Ruan Ying’s lips curved into a gentle smile as she turned to open another small door. Under the warm orange light, there was... an egg being nurtured.

She walked into the room, satisfactorily taking in the secure, private room, and then poked her head out to look toward the door, her brown-black eyes sweeping contentedly over the half-destroyed laboratory.

The small door slowly closed until it was completely hidden.

Good daughter, she has left you another gift.

Not long after leaving the laboratory, Lan Ruo found Hei Qi, who had been by Ruan Ying’s side.

"Has she been acting strange recently?" Lan Ruo’s tone was less than pleasant.

"...No."

Lan Ruo scanned Hei Qi with a gaze full of suspicion, "You better be telling the truth."

She stepped forward, staring at the man’s face with a careful examination, "Don’t forget, you’re just a stand-in. Don’t think you can make her love you just because you have a similar appearance."

"...I know, I won’t have any inappropriate thoughts." The man lowered his head, allowing her disdainful gaze to sweep over him.

Lan Ruo chuckled and sighed, "Oh, I really don’t know what she’s up to, watching her all day is so boring."

"Take me to the observation room where Ruan Li is." Lan Ruo’s words were indisputable.

"Alright."

Hei Qi lowered his eyes, staring at the ground, walking ahead.

Upon reaching the observation room, Lan Ruo saw a wall completely blocked off, frowning, "No glass?"

"No, you can only enter through the door."

"Open the door for me."

Hei Qi opened the door but didn’t enter, just stood at the entrance.

Lan Ruo kicked his calf, "Go in."

A dark light flashed through Hei Qi’s lowered eyes.

Lan Ruo followed him into the observation room. The bed’s occupant was seemingly hidden entirely by a blanket; she went over to pull it back.

Instead of a person, there was a robot resembling the small female form.

Once the blanket was pulled back, it turned its neck to reveal a creepy smile at Lan Ruo.

Before she could react, the ground quaked, and the robot in front of her exploded with a bang.

Lan Ruo instinctively covered her face, but her arms were pierced by countless fragments.

She screamed in pain, trying to escape.

However, the entire ground fractured, explosions continued to erupt from below, making it impossible for her to stand.

"You! It was you all along!" She saw the smile on Hei Qi’s face, immediately understanding that this Beastman had already allied with Ruan Ying.

In a panic, she blurted out, "Did Ruan Ying promise you something?! Do you really think she’ll fall in love with you? Do you think someone like her will ever love a Beastman?!"

As the surroundings shook, even the walls began to crumble, Hei Qi propped himself up against the wall, slowly standing, "As long as I love her, it’s enough."

Seeing him about to leave, Lan Ruo activated an emergency command on the Smart Brain.

Hei Qi’s face instantly turned pale, holding his chest, weakened to the point of nearly collapsing.

"If you don’t want to die, take me out," Lan Ruo said.

She was a soft-bodied female. If crushed under these stones, there was no way she could survive.

Seeing Hei Qi approach her, the panic on her face barely subsided until the Beastman securely held her in his arms: "First take me out of the research facility, then go back to find Ruan Ying, alive if possible, a corpse if not."

Hei Qi glanced down at her coldly.

Lan Ruo was furious, but knowing she had to rely on him to escape, she just gave a cold snort.

The once ice-cold, imposing research facility almost instantly became ruins, with Hei Qi carrying Lan Ruo running amidst the falling stones.

Suddenly, she was put down.

Lan Ruo widened her eyes, "Hei Qi, what are you doing!"

"The building here is solid, you won’t die," Hei Qi’s words fell, and with one hand transformed into a wolf claw, slashed at her wrist’s Smart Brain.

The crackling sound of electricity accompanied by black smoke signaled the Smart Brain’s complete breakdown.

"For bringing me to the professor’s side, I grant you a way out."

"Duchess Lan Ruo, you’d better pray someone will come to save you." Hei Qi hooked his lips, a cold smirk on his handsome face, as he turned into a black wolf, disappearing from Lan Ruo’s sight at an incredible speed.

Lan Ruo hugged her arms, curling up pathetically in this narrow corner.

By the time Zhe Ye’s search team arrived, Lan Ruo was barely alive.

She was urgently taken into a treatment pod.

She still needed to live, and the interstellar law held no penalty that allowed a Beastman to ignore an injured female in need.

The flames on N Planet continued relentlessly, as if the entire planet was lifeless, akin to withered grass, drained of its final vitality.

The search team combed through the ruins, with many research documents heavily destroyed.

Zhe Ye clutched the few pieces of remaining documentation, his brows furrowing deeply.

When he laid out the reconstructed materials in front of several people, the massive influx of information put Marshal Lu on alert.

"Gene fusion technology... biological membrane simulation technology... super intelligent robot biological systems... robot anthropomorphic thought..."

Even given just this reconstructed little bit of information, it was enough to shock the entire interstellar.

"It’s a pity only a fragment can be restored, with more data beyond recovery," Zhe Ye said.

Even Ruan Li, who knew nothing about scientific physics, could tell from the simple information that Ruan Ying’s research was immense.

She might not have been a competent mother, but she was a dazzling beacon of future technology.

"People are still searching through the ruins, though they’ve only found Ms. Ruan Ying’s usual wheelchair... perhaps she already perished in the explosion."

"Has the source of the explosion been identified?"

Zhe Ye nodded, "The explosives were embedded within a very thick coating on the ceiling, unlikely to have been dug and hidden later, instead seeming to have been filled while constructing the research facility."

He took out a clear sealed bag, "This was found near the wheelchair, it is indeed the detonation button."

"So, Ruan Ying committed suicide?" Ruan Li asked softly.

Zhe Ye nodded, "All signs point to it being the case."

"However, her remains haven’t been found yet, perhaps..."

Suddenly, a noise came from outside the study.

Lu Muyu opened the door, finding a desolate Su Luoyin outside, "Mother, why are you here?"
