88: Chapter 88: Babao is born; reward: underwater breathing gill modification fluid.

"Steady!"

Lin Yun rushed to Captain Long Ying’s side in a flash, scooping her up into his arms.

In his arms, Captain Long Ying's body was burning hot, her breathing rapid, and her heroic face was now covered with an expression of pain. The mental storm from ten thousand meters deep in the sea, although weakened by ninety-nine percent by the Luan Bird's shield, still contained a certain malice targeting the essence of life, which precisely found the infinitely potential new life gestating in Captain Long Ying's womb!

This was the most vicious attack, aiming to nip Lin Yun's eighth child in the bud before it was born!

"You want to compare potential with my child? You're not worthy!"

Lin Yun's eyes erupted with towering rage. He held Captain Long Ying and rushed directly to the center of the dinghai-class warship's bridge.

"Xiao Zhang! Immediately connect my biological authority to the dinghai-class warship's main control system!"

"Nuwa! Using me as a coordinate, construct an 'Absolute Life Field' around the dinghai-class warship!"

"All Luan Bird motherships, switch energy output to life mode! Pour all energy into me via the data link!"

Lin Yun's commands were instantly transmitted to the onboard AI of every Luan Bird through his powerful mental force.

The next second, the nine colossal steel deities, blotting out the sky, simultaneously lit up with a soft, vibrant green light, brimming with life, on their previously cold and austere hulls.

Nine massive pillars of pure life energy projected precisely from a height of one hundred thousand meters, spanning the distance of space, finally converging on the dinghai-class warship, and on Lin Yun's body!

For a moment, Lin Yun was entirely enveloped in a dense, almost tangible green light. From a distance, he looked like a jade deity in charge of life.

And the entire bridge of the dinghai-class warship was transformed into an absolutely safe "Law Greenhouse" by this immense life energy.

The violent mental storm and energy impact from outside, upon touching this green light domain, rapidly melted, purified, and even transformed into nutrients that nourished life, like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun.

Captain Long Ying's pain was instantly alleviated. Leaning against Lin Yun's broad chest, she could clearly feel streams of warm and pure life energy continuously flowing from Lin Yun's body into herself and her child.

The little life in her womb, which had been restless due to the attack, now quieted down, even kicking its legs joyfully, as if enjoying this unprecedented "energy feast."

"This little guy... he's so ravenous even before he's born..." Lin Yun couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh, feeling the energy in his body draining like a flood.

This Babao of his was simply a bottomless pit! The life energy converted from nine aerospace motherships was barely enough for him to have an "appetizer"!

However, this was perfect!

A fierce glint flashed in Lin Yun's eyes.

That deep-sea behemoth wanted to attack my child with an energy impact? Then I'll let my child suck it dry!

"Nuwa! Increase power!"

"Draw all the energy overflowing from that big guy over here, and use it as milk powder!"

Lin Yun's command caused Nuwa's computational core to momentarily stutter.

[Commander, this operation is extremely dangerous and may provoke a more violent resistance from the opponent, leading to an energy clash...]

"Execute the order!"

[...Yes, Commander.]

As Lin Yun's command was issued, the green light domain enveloping the dinghai-class warship suddenly expanded outwards, like a giant green vortex, frantically absorbing and plundering the energy that the deep-sea behemoth was wantonly unleashing in its rage!

This scene completely bewildered the Living Planet Engine.

It had lived for countless billions of years, fought from one galaxy to another, and destroyed innumerable civilizations, yet it had never seen such an arrogant carbon-based life form!

It's one thing if you can't defeat me, but now you dare to snatch my energy? And in front of me, you're "feeding" my future enemy?

Utter humiliation!

"Roar—!!!"

A roar, not belonging to any known language, yet capable of making all of humanity's souls tremble, erupted from ten thousand meters beneath the sea.

The entire Pacific Ocean, no, all the oceans globally, churned with colossal waves hundreds of meters high at this moment!

That behemoth had completely gone berserk!

From its two continent-sized eyes, two dark-red beams of destructive light, capable of instantly vaporizing aircraft carriers, shot out, aiming directly at the Luan Bird fleet in the sky!

However, at this very moment.

"Wah—!"

A clear, loud cry of a baby echoed on the dinghai-class warship's bridge.

The sound wasn't loud, but it seemed to carry a magical power, as if words became reality.

The two world-destroying dark-red light beams, just as they were about to hit the Luan Bird, seemed to have a pause button pressed, stopping abruptly in mid-air.

Then, to everyone's horror, the two beams actually began to... flow backward!

They were forcibly shoved back into the deep-sea behemoth's "eyes" in a manner that defied causality!

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Two muffled explosions echoed in the ten-thousand-meter-deep sea.

The arrogant Living Planet Engine was actually "blinded" by its own attack!

Although this level of damage might not even count as a scratch for it, the suppression and humiliation from the law level made it feel... fear for the first time.

Its massive body actually began to slowly sink deeper into the earth's crust, choosing to... temporarily avoid the confrontation!

A global ocean catastrophe, capable of destroying the world, vanished into thin air because of a baby's cry.

On the dinghai-class warship's bridge.

Lin Yun looked down at the newborn baby boy in his arms, whose body emitted a faint light blue glow, and his heart was filled with shock.

This little guy, as expected of Captain Long Ying and his child, was born with an inherent dominance over the ocean!

[Ding! Congratulations, Host! The eighth S-Class offspring has successfully descended!]

[This offspring possesses extremely high affinity with the laws of the ocean, naturally endowed with 'Water Element Control' and 'Absolute Maritime Sovereignty' talents!]

[System detected that the Host is currently facing a deep-sea threat and is issuing targeted rewards...]

[Congratulations, Host! You have obtained top-tier genetic technology: 'Dragon Whale' Underwater Breathing Gills and Deep-Sea Pressure Resistance Modification Fluid (military mass-produced version)!]

[Modification Fluid Description: It can genetically modify carbon-based life forms, allowing them to grow efficient biological breathing gills while retaining land breathing capabilities, and comprehensively strengthen their pressure resistance, muscle density, and underwater vision, making them true... Deep-Sea Dominators!]

Lin Yun looked at the large batch of blue modification fluid in special containers in the system space, then at his fierce son in his arms who treated the deep-sea behemoth as a "baby bottle," and an incredibly bold and crazy plan instantly formed in his mind.

He turned his head and, through video communication, looked at General Li Yunlong, who was on Luan Bird One and was equally stunned beyond belief by the previous scene.

"General Li."

Lin Yun's voice pulled the meritorious old general back to reality from his shock. "Lin... Little Lin... No, Chief Commander Lin! What are your instructions!" General Li Yunlong immediately straightened his back and replied loudly.

Lin Yun smiled, holding up a tube of blue modification fluid in his hand and shaking it at the camera.

"General Li, didn't you say before that tearing aliens apart was no problem?"

"Now, the opportunity has come."

"Interested... in going down to the sea with me to catch all those 'fish' you didn't get a chance to fight back then?"

"And while we're at it... go meet that 'big guy' who just got blinded?"
