422: Chapter 422 Let's just do it.

Qin Lin turned slightly and pointed to The Ark parked behind him; its silvery-white hull was exceptionally striking under the dark red sky. "You can go up and see for yourself."

The woman turned her head to exchange a few whispered words with the people beneath the ruins, then turned back. "Alright, we will go up and take a look."

A group of the Demon Race emerged from beneath the ruins.

They were male and female; some had horns on their heads, others had wings on their backs, some had dark gray skin, and others had golden pupils.

They were dressed differently—some wore worn-out armor, others wore rough cloth clothing—but all of them carried the exhaustion of having been in dire straits for a long time.

Qin Lin led them into The Ark.

The members of the Demon Race walked along the corridor, curious about the automatic doors, glowing walls, and soft lighting. They reached out one after another to touch the walls, sensing an energy that was completely different from their own world.

The lighting on The Ark was warm yellow, unlike their world, which only had dark red light and black shadows.

The leading woman walked to the center of the living room, looked at everything around her, and turned to look at Qin Lin. "There is a lot of Warmth here."

Qin Lin looked at her. "Because it is safe here."

The woman was silent for a moment. "My name is Yeying."

Qin Lin nodded. "Hello, Yeying."

The women on The Ark also gathered around.

Han Yurou stood in front of the crowd, looking at this group of the Demon Race. "Wow, are their horns real?"

Yeying turned her head to look at her. "They are real."

Han Yurou hesitated for a moment. "Can I touch them?"

Yeying looked at her, was silent for a moment, and then lowered her head slightly.

Han Yurou reached out and gently touched the horns on Yeying's head; they were warm, hard, and had some fine patterns on the surface. "They look much better than I imagined the Demon Race to be!"

Su Han stood by and watched them without speaking, but her gaze was filled with curiosity.

Chief Bai Yao stood in the crowd, looking at those of the Demon Race, her gaze complex. "They are the same as us."

Chieftain Qing Yao stood next to Chief Bai Yao. "We are all life in the Universe, just in different forms."

Yeying also looked at them. "Are you of the Yao Race?"

Chief Bai Yao nodded. "We are the Yao Race."

Yeying was silent for a moment. "The Yao Race, I have only heard of them in legends."

The women on The Ark began to help the Demon Race settle down.

Su Yuran arranged accommodations, Han Qing gave them physical examinations, and Li Ying and Han Yurou distributed clothing and daily necessities to them.

The members of the Demon Race clumsily took these unfamiliar items of Warmth, their eyes filled with a cautious surprise.

Qin Lin stood in the center of the living room, watching this scene, and turned to look at Ling Xi beside him. "You mentioned before that there are many other races in the Universe."

Ling Xi nodded. "Yes, the Human Race, the Yao Race, the Demon Race, and others."

Qin Lin looked at her. "There are others?"

Ling Xi looked at him. "Many, such as the Elf Race, the Beastman Race, the Spirit Race, and the Elemental Race... As long as the energy environment is suitable, life will appear in different forms."

Han Yurou heard their conversation and ran over. "The Elf Race? Are they the ones with long ears who can shoot arrows?"

Ling Xi thought for a moment. "Some are, some are not. The forms of the Elf Race are also very diverse."

Han Yurou's eyes lit up. "Then will we be able to meet the Elf Race in the future?"

Ling Xi looked at her. "If we could, would you be afraid?"

Han Yurou thought for a moment. "I wouldn't be afraid. As long as they don't eat people, I won't be afraid."

Li Ying leaned on the massage chair and said, "The races in the world are truly diverse. I used to think that there was only the Human Race in the world, then I met the Yao Race, and now I have met the Demon Race. In the future, there will be the Elf Race, the Beastman Race... The Universe is truly vast."

Xu Xue sat in front of the drawing board, painting a new picture. "The larger the Universe, the more intelligent races we can encounter."

Yeying stood in the corridor, looking at the dark red sky outside the window.

Qin Lin walked over and stood beside her. "What are you looking at?"

Yeying did not turn back. "Looking at my hometown. It used to be beautiful, with blue skies, white clouds, and green forests. Now, only red and black remain."

Qin Lin looked at her. "Then are you willing to stay on The Ark?"

Yeying turned her head to look at him, her dark red eyes shining. "I am willing, because this is my only hope."

Qin Lin nodded. "Then stay."

The members of the Demon Race entered The Ark one after another.

They walked through the corridor, looking at this bright, new world full of Warmth that was completely different from their dark hometown.

Their eyes held a complex mix of emotions: curiosity, fear, hope, and relief.

Qin Lin stood by the window, looking at the dark red sky outside, then at the members of the Demon Race who were slowly adapting to the new environment, feeling that The Ark was becoming a home that could accommodate all life.

Because of the Void Storage Room, the Small Worlds suitable for survival that Qin Lin had encountered before had all been absorbed into The Ark.

Therefore, now he was not just bringing in women who met the requirements; their Family or race would all be brought in together, letting them live in the Small Worlds of the Void Storage Room, and he only needed to provide them with food.

And only women who met the rating requirements could live in the rooms on The Ark long-term.

Ling Xi stood beside him. "Qin Lin, are you ready?"

Qin Lin looked at her. "Ready for what?"

Ling Xi looked at him. "Ready to accept more different forms of life, because there are still many worlds ahead, and many more races."

Qin Lin was silent for a moment. "I am ready."

The dark red sky outside the window became a bit softer under the lights of The Ark, like a painting being repainted.

The Ark rested quietly in the night sky, like a lighthouse floating in the Universe, illuminating the path forward for every life in need of help.

...

After the members of the Demon Race settled down on The Ark, they began to slowly adapt to their new life.

They learned to use faucets, toilets, showers, and electric lights; they learned to use the System Store to purchase food and clothing; and they learned to chat with the Human Race and the Yao Race in the living room.

Yeying was the first of the Demon Race to establish a Bond with Qin Lin.

That night, she found Qin Lin in the corridor. "Qin Lin, I have something to tell you."

Qin Lin looked at her. "Speak."

Yeying looked into his eyes. "I am ready, and I have understood the rules on The Ark. I am willing to complete the task of 'Many Children, Many Blessings'."

Qin Lin looked at her. "Are you sure?"

Yeying nodded. "Sure. Let's just do it."

That night, Qin Lin and Yeying completed the Bond.

Her body was different from that of the Human Race and the Yao Race; her body temperature was lower, and her skin was like a thin layer of silk, delicate and cool to the touch.

She would tremble slightly when he touched her horns, and her breathing would become very light, like wind passing through an underground cave.

Afterward, Yeying leaned into his embrace. "Qin Lin, is this what a Bond is?"

Qin Lin looked down at her. "Yes."

Yeying closed her eyes. "I can feel it."

Because the Demon Race were more open-minded, a few days later, the two of them directly began the pregnancy life.

And the System notification sound also rang out.
