301: Chapter 301 [“Many Children, Many Blessings” Permanent Quest Phase Settlement]

Three days after Han Qing's strawberries were planted, the System notification sounded.

It wasn't the usual short "ding," but a long, bell-like melody echoing in every corner of the The Ark.

Qin Lin was checking the route in the Bridge when he heard the sound; his finger hovered over the control console and stopped.

He had never heard this melody before.

The System never sounded without reason.

The holographic screen lit up automatically, popping up a golden interface.

The border of the interface was patterned, not the usual simple straight lines, but complex, vine-like winding patterns.

In the center of the interface, a line of large characters slowly emerged:

[Periodic Settlement of "Many Children, Many Blessings" Permanent Quest]

Qin Lin looked at this line of text, his heart racing.

It wasn't the usual minor "another quest completed," but a "periodic settlement."

It had been several days since the children were born, and no rewards had appeared; Qin Lin thought there wouldn't be any, but it turned out the time hadn't come yet, and the System quest rewards had finally arrived.

He clicked on the details, and the text on the interface scrolled down like a waterfall.

[Detected a major Breakthrough in the "Many Children, Many Blessings" quest]

[Number of pregnant women: 11]

[Number of newborns: 13]

[Major milestone: Over 10 newborns completed]

[Beginning cumulative reward distribution...]

Han Yurou's scream came from the living room.

Qin Lin ran out of the Bridge and saw everyone standing in the center of the living room, with translucent golden panels floating in front of them.

Everyone's panel was different, but the color was the same—that warm golden hue, like sunlight frozen in mid-air.

"Brother Qin Lin! Look quickly!" Han Yurou pointed at her panel, her voice shrill and bright. "There's text on my panel! It says it's giving me a reward!"

"I have one too." Su Yuran held Qin An, looking down at the panel in front of her with the corners of her mouth curled up.

"As if anyone doesn't." Li Ying sat up from the massage chair, rarely not looking lazy.

Everyone had one.

Including Li Ran, including Su Yuling, including Han Qing.

The panel in front of Qin Lin was the largest and had the most content.

The names of all the mothers appeared on the interface, arranged in order of birth.

Su Yuran, Lin Wanwan, Han Yurou, Li Ying, Xu Xue, Zhou Lingling, Zhou Yueyue, Xia Qiuyan, Lin Xiaoyue, Lin Fang, Wang Xiulan.

Eleven people, eleven names.

On the holographic screen, the first name lit up.

[First child exclusive title issued — "Mother of Hope"]

[Extra Reward: Maternal Physique Enhancement V3, Newborn Talent "Tenacity"]

Qin Lin was stunned.

Newborn talent?

He clicked on the details, and the System popped up a line of small text:

[Qin An: Talent "Tenacity" — Increased adaptability to extreme environments, increased resistance to diseases.]

Su Yuran had obviously seen this line of text as well; she looked down at Qin An in her arms. Qin An was closing his eyes and nursing, completely unaware that he had gained a "talent."

She didn't speak, but her eyes turned red. Qin An yawned in her arms, his small mouth opening wide and round, then he closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

Su Yuling ran over from the side and hugged Su Yuran's arm. "Sister, you're on TV!" Su Yuran was amused by her; tears slid from the corners of her eyes, but her mouth was curled into a smile.

On the holographic screen, the second name lit up.

[passenger no. 002: Lin Wanwan]

[Extra Reward: Maternal Physique Enhancement V3, Newborn Talent "Pure Spirit"]

[Qin Yuan: Talent "Pure Spirit" — Increased perception, enhanced emotional sensing ability.]

Lin Wanwan held Qin Yuan and leaned on Wang Xiulan's shoulder, tears flowing silently.

Wang Xiulan patted the back of her hand and said softly, "This is a good thing, why are you crying?" Lin Wanwan shook her head and didn't speak, but the tears wouldn't stop.

Wang Xiulan leaned over to look at her panel, then at Qin Yuan, and whispered, "Pure Spirit, it suits her so well."

The third name lit up.

[passenger no. 003: Han Yurou]

[milestone: Gave birth to the The Ark's third newborn (Qin Yue, female)]

[Extra Reward: Maternal Physique Enhancement V3, Newborn Talent "Warmth"]

[Qin Yue: Talent "Warmth" — Comes with a positive emotional field, capable of calming the minds of those around.]

Han Yurou looked at the word "Warmth," tilted her head to think, and then smiled. "No wonder she doesn't like to cry; it turns out it's a talent."

Han Qing stood beside her, looking at the talent description, the corners of her mouth curling up without a word.

But she reached out and gently touched Qin Yue's little face.

Han Yurou held Qin Yue, smiling until her eyes curved into crescents.

She turned to look at Han Qing and said loudly, "Mom! Look! I have a reward too!"

Han Qing looked at her daughter, the corners of her mouth curling up without a word.

But she gently flicked Han Yurou's forehead.

Han Yurou covered her forehead and pouted, but she smiled even more happily.

The fourth.

[Qin Xue: Talent "Serenity" — Can create a quiet atmosphere in the surrounding space, reducing noise interference.]

Xu Xue held Qin Xue, and Xia Qiuyan stood beside her, gently touching Xu Xue's shoulder.

Xu Xue looked up at her; Xia Qiuyan's eyes were also red, but she didn't cry, only smiled and whispered, "Congratulations."

Xu Xue also smiled, gently touched Xia Qiuyan's hand, and said, "Congratulations to you too." Xia Qiuyan's face flushed slightly as she lowered her head, but the corners of her mouth curled up.

The fifth.
