398: Chapter 398 Continue to Live

Qin Lin nodded: "I have remembered it."

He closed the door and left.

Qin Lin returned to the living room, where everyone was still present.

He stood in the center of the room, looking at the house full of women and children: "The woman in Room No. 15 just told me that if I don't continue to have children, The Ark will be downgraded."

The living room went quiet for a moment, then erupted.

Han Yurou was the first to cry out: "Downgraded? Downgraded to what?"

Qin Lin looked at her: "Downgraded back to that initial RV."

Li Ying sat up from the massage chair: "Then can we still survive?"

Qin Lin was silent for a moment: "No."

The living room went quiet again.

Su Yuran held Qin An and looked at him: "Then do we need to continue giving birth?"

Qin Lin nodded: "Yes, we need to keep giving birth and maintain over one hundred children so that The Ark won't be downgraded, and I can also receive her advice and help when she wakes up at irregular intervals."

Liu Ruyan stood up from the carpet: "Then what are we waiting for? Keep giving birth! Giving birth doesn't hurt anyway, isn't it just having a few more?"

Han Yurou nodded: "Right! I've already given birth to two, having another one is no problem."

Zhao Shuang stood up from the corner: "I can do it too."

Jiang Xue was silent for a moment, then also stood up: "I can do it too."

The women in the living room stood up one by one; some were heavily pregnant, some were holding children, and some had just given birth.

Qin Lin looked at them, feeling his eyes sting.

He took a deep breath: "Thank you all."

Su Yuran looked at him: "No need to thank us. Matters on The Ark are everyone's business. If children need to be born, we will give birth for you."

Qin Lin looked at her and nodded.

He walked to the window and looked at the starry sky outside.

The Ark was sailing through the Universe, with one hundred children and one hundred women behind him, a ship struggling to maintain stability.

He remembered what Ling said: "The Ark will be downgraded."

He could not let it be downgraded.

He would continue to have children, keep giving birth until The Ark was stable enough, until Ling fully recovered, and until they could all survive.

Qin Lin felt that this was truly a struggle for survival.

The starry sky outside the window rotated slowly, and The Ark sailed through the darkness.

Qin Lin stood by the window, with The Ark, the lights, the crying and laughter, and one hundred children and one hundred women behind him.

He knew the road ahead was still long, but he was not afraid, because he was not alone.

...

The second day after Ling woke up, the women on The Ark collectively made a decision.

Continue giving birth.

Su Yuran called a meeting in the living room, and all the women came.

One hundred women crowded into the living room; some were sitting, some were standing, some were holding children, and some were heavily pregnant.

Su Yuran stood in the center of the living room, looking at the house full of women: "Yesterday, Ling in Room No. 15 told us that if the number of children on The Ark falls below one hundred, The Ark will be downgraded. We cannot let The Ark be downgraded, so we need to continue giving birth."

Qin Lin stood at the entrance of the Bridge, watching this scene, an indescribable feeling welling up in his heart.

He walked in and stood beside Su Yuran: "Thank you all."

Liu Ruyan was the first to speak: "Qin Lin, you don't need to thank us. We are helping you, which is also helping ourselves. If The Ark is downgraded, none of us will survive."

Zhao Shuang nodded: "Right, we are a whole, and no one can be left behind."

Su Han took a sip of tea and said indifferently: "It's just giving birth, it's not a difficult task."

Qin Lin looked at them and smiled.

The second baby boom on The Ark began.

Qin Lin shuttled between the pregnant women every day, arranging tasks for new passengers and advancing the progress of "Many Children, Many Blessings".

The System notification sound rang every few days, each time bringing a new piece of good news.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host! Passenger Su Yuran has successfully conceived (third pregnancy)!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Host! Passenger Lin Wanwan has successfully conceived (third pregnancy)!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Host! Passenger Han Yurou has successfully conceived (third pregnancy)!]

[Ding! Congratulations, Host! Passenger Li Ying has successfully conceived (third pregnancy)!]

Ling would wake up every once in a while to give Qin Lin some advice.

The time she spent awake grew longer, and her voice became increasingly forceful.

Once, when Qin Lin was looking at the star chart in the Bridge, Ling's voice suddenly sounded in his ear: "The Ark's energy shield strength has increased by thirty percent. If you continue to have children, it can be upgraded to Lv12."

Qin Lin turned his head and saw her standing at the entrance of the Bridge, wearing a white dress, with a hazy look on her face, as if she had just woken up: "You can come out now?"

Ling walked in and sat on the chair next to him: "I still can't go too far, but coming out to sit for a while is fine."

Qin Lin looked at her: "How is your Recovery going?"

Ling thought for a moment: "Much better than before. The newborn children have stabilized my Natal Law a lot. I can stay awake for longer periods now. If there can be more children, I will recover faster."

Qin Lin nodded: "I will work hard. There are over fifty pregnant women on The Ark now. In a few months, another batch of children will be born."

Ling looked at him: "Then you have worked hard."

Qin Lin shook his head: "It's not hard work. Every woman on The Ark is working very hard; I am just cooperating with them."

Ling looked at him and was silent for a moment: "You are a good man."

Qin Lin was stunned: "What?"

Ling stood up: "I said you are a good man."

She turned and left, her steps very light, like a leaf falling on the surface of the water.

Qin Lin sat in the Bridge, watching her back disappear around the corner of the corridor.

The starry sky outside the window rotated slowly, and The Ark sailed through the Universe.

As time passed, Ling woke up more and more frequently.

She began to help handle the affairs of The Ark, using her unique methods to optimize routes, improve energy efficiency, and even guide passengers to Cultivate.

Once, Zhao Shuang met Ling in the Cultivation Room. She was standing by the window looking at the starry sky outside. Hearing footsteps, she turned her head: "Your Cultivation Technique could be optimized. Are you willing to listen?"

Zhao Shuang was stunned: "How do you know I am Cultivating?"

Ling looked at her: "I can feel the energy fluctuations of everyone on The Ark. Your Cultivation Technique still has room for improvement."

Zhao Shuang was silent for a moment: "Then tell me."

Ling walked up to her, stretched out her hand, and tapped her fingertip on her brow.

Zhao Shuang felt a wave of Warmth energy surge from Ling's finger into her body, flow through her Meridians for a cycle, and then recede.

"Try circulating your spiritual power like this."

Zhao Shuang did as she said, and it was indeed much smoother than before.

She opened her eyes and looked at Ling: "Thank you!"

Ling looked at her: "You are welcome."

Ling turned and left.
