Next Target: Li Sushang?

Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "After all, you two know that this world is full of dangers, and humanity could become extinct if we are not careful. So... I must stay here to ensure that humanity is not Honkai out by the Honkai."

Although with Otto and Fu Hua, along with Kevin and Su, who have now awakened, protecting humanity, it's unlikely that humanity will perish, but...

What if? What if humanity really dies? With the capabilities of artificial Hibernation Pod, there's no way we can wait another tens of thousands of years, and even the facilities in the base might not be able to hold out for another fifty thousand years, so...

We must make sure that humanity doesn't destroy itself!

"This..."

Hearing Ling Xi's answer, Yae Sakura frowned slightly and asked, "But, is it a bit... to let my husband spend these five hundred years alone..."

That's five hundred years...

After we got married, let alone five hundred years, even during the few hours I worked at the shrine, I was always distracted, wanting to go home and be with Ling Xi. Sometimes, I would be restless if I didn't see her for a day. But now...

Ling Xi is going to spend five hundred years alone, and Yae Sakura simply cannot imagine the extent of her longing!

"Five hundred years..."

Rin said somewhat warily, "My husband has only had my sister and me for five years. If it's five hundred years... I hope my husband doesn't end up with a hundred people by then..."

"Puff..."

Ling Xi nearly choked on his own blood, then smacked Lin on the head and said irritably, "Stop messing around, I'm completely devoted to both of you!"

"That..."

Rin asked curiously, "Before us, did my husband... have other wives?"

Ling Xi "..."

"Sakura, Rin, we've arrived!"

At this moment, Ling Xi saw the location on the holographic map and realized that they had arrived above the base!

Sakura Rin: "..." Okay, this question doesn't need an answer anymore...

However, they could understand. After all, Ling Xi was Eternal Life, so it was not surprising that Ling Xi had other people before them!

"Welcome back, Ling Xi."

Soon, Ling Xi led the two to the Hall of the Elysian Realm, where the Klein Puppet was still the same as before, almost unchanged from when they left!

"Yes, it's been a long time, Klein!"

Upon seeing the Klein Puppet, Ling Xi smiled. Although it wasn't the real Klein, its personality, voice, and even its workaholic tendencies were undoubtedly modeled after her senior sister!

"Yes!"

A smile appeared on the Klein Puppet's face as well. "To be precise, the last time we met was before 4195, so it really can be described as a long time!"

Yae Sakura: "???"

Yae Rin "???"

More than four thousand years... Although she knew her husband wasn't joking, wasn't this a bit too exaggerated?

"More than four thousand years...?"

Ling Xi muttered to herself, then asked, "How are they doing?"

"Everything is normal!"

Klein nodded slightly. "The Hibernation Pod did not encounter any problems during this period, and I only performed three simple maintenance operations!"

"That's good!"

Ling Xi nodded silently. It seemed that the technology of the Previous Era was quite reliable!

"Klein, introduce yourself."

Ling Xi pulled Yae Sakura and Rin over directly and said with a smile, "These are my two wives from the Far East, Yae Sakura and Yae Rin!"

Klein "..."

"Does the Doctor know about this?"

Klein looked at Ling Xi with curiosity.

"Um... I don't know yet."

Ling Xi answered softly, since the Doctor was still asleep.

"Hello, Klein..."

Upon hearing Ling Xi's introduction, Yae Sakura and the other person also took the initiative to greet Klein. Mechanical dolls, how amazing!

"Call..."

Klein sighed and asked Ling Xi, "Did you bring them here to put them into hibernation?"

"Uh-huh!"

Ling Xi nodded slightly, then took out two Hibernation Pod and smiled, "After all, they are just ordinary humans with limited lifespans, so... thank you for your trouble, Klein!"

"It's okay, it doesn't matter to me anyway!"

Klein did not refuse, after all, her job was already very simple, and now it was just a matter of maintaining two more Hibernation Pod, which was a trivial matter for her.

"Klein, could you please check the status of the Hibernation Pod?"

As she spoke, Ling Xi asked Klein to help her check it. Although she hadn't taken the Hibernation Pod out since putting it into the System Space, Ling Xi was still quite cautious, because if something went wrong, it would be troublesome!

After all, he didn't know how to repair the Hibernation Pod, and Klein couldn't either, so...

If the Hibernation Pod really is broken, then I might have no choice but to wake up the twins and have them help me fix it, but...

Ling Xi thought that if she woke them up with this reason, she would probably get beaten up!

Although the two of them couldn't beat him, but...

This isn't a question of whether I can win or not. If they want to beat me up, do you think I'd dare to fight back?

Do you still want the Hibernation Pod?

Do you still want to play Xyz Summon?

And most importantly... Although I had no choice but to abandon them back then, I really did wrong them. We were only together for a few months, but we were separated for more than four thousand years.

Therefore, Ling Xi could not and would not bear to bully them...

"Everything is normal, the Hibernation Pod has no problems and can be used normally!"

Fortunately, Klein said in the end that the Hibernation Pod was fine and could be used at any time!

Well, thankfully, this time we don't have to risk getting hammered by waking up the twins. As for what happens after they awaken and discover the Yae Sakura sisters, especially Sakura, what if she finds a pink-haired girl who looks exactly like her...

Um, never mind, I'll deal with it later. At worst, I'll find somewhere to lay low for a while when they wake up!

Chapter 558: Next Target, Li Sushang?

Since the Hibernation Pod is working properly, the rest is quite simple.

The Klein Puppet led the three into a room where three Hibernation Pod were placed, two of which were already activated. These were none other than the twins who liked to slack off. After all, they were using ordinary artificial Hibernation Pod, so there was no need for them to go to the area of Key of Stagnation.

Ling Xi then placed the two Hibernation Pod here. As for the one remaining in the room, it was naturally kept as a Hibernation Pod in case anything happened.

At the same time, Ling Xi was also explaining some things to the two of them...

"Sakura, Rin, that's the general situation with the Hibernation Pod. Just think of it as taking a nap. Also..."

Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "If something goes wrong with your Hibernation Pod and you wake up prematurely, remember to go to the hall to find Klein as soon as possible, and then follow Klein's instructions. If necessary, you can wake up Cangxuan and Danzhu with Klein's permission and have them help repair the Hibernation Pod!"

The last point was also made by Ling Xi Xige. Although based on the twins' usage, the Hibernation Pod shouldn't run into any problems in just five hundred years, but what if something does?

Therefore, Ling Xi also instructed the two that if they encountered a problem that Klein could not solve, then they should awaken Cangxuan and Danzhu!

While this might be a little bit like tricking Geminis, but...

There's no other way; the Key of Stagnation can't be awakened midway, so we can only awaken Danzhu and Cangxuan.

"Finally, if even they can't solve it, then... try contacting me, but don't come looking for me!"

Ling Xi said quietly, "I don't think the communication device will be on all the time, but I will turn it on for one day every month. You can contact me at that time. If you have any questions, contact Klein."

In short, we have basically prepared for all possible unforeseen circumstances.

As for why he didn't let them come to him, it was because the twins were just ordinary people, and Yae Sakura and Rin had only fused with intermediate-level Hypervariable Factor. Ling Xi was afraid that something might happen to them if he sent them across half the globe to Shenzhou to find him, and also...

During this period, I cannot guarantee that I will remain awake!

"Cangxuan, Danzhu, them..."

Yae Sakura silently looked at Ling Xi and asked, "Are they also your husband's wives?"

"Forehead..."

Ling Xi touched her nose and smiled, "Those two... used to be my colleagues. Later, we relied on each other for survival, so naturally..."

"Never mind, I won't ask anymore..."

Yae Sakura was too lazy to ask any more questions. After all, Ling Xi's identity was still a mystery. She would ask him properly after everyone woke up in the future.

Furthermore, if what Klein said before was true, then Cangxuan and Danzhu... were actually with Ling Xi more than four thousand years ago, so...

Logically speaking, my sister and I were the ones who came later.

Well, it's fortunate that Yae Sakura didn't know at this time that there were actually seven... well, maybe eight people 50,000 years ago!

"Husband, take it easy..."

Rin chuckled mischievously, "Don't wait until my sister and I wake up to find out that even though we queue up once a week, we can't get a turn."

"Cough cough, don't worry, absolutely not!"

Ling Xi coughed lightly and solemnly assured her not to interfere or move the girl. They should focus on getting her to sleep first.

Klein: "..." It seems that Previous Era, a week's wait in line... was a little not enough!

Of course, Klein didn't expose Ling Xi, after all, she didn't want to be retired early!

"Well then... Sakura, Rin, goodnight!"

Soon, Ling Xi carried the two of them into their respective Hibernation Pod, saying goodnight as she did so. After all, for them, it really was just a nap!

"Yes, my husband, see you in the future!"

"Okay, Ling Xi, bye-bye!"

Sakura and Rin waved goodbye, then quietly lay down, the hatch closed, and hibernation was activated!

In less than ten seconds, the two fell into a deep sleep, and the Hibernation Pod also entered hibernation mode...

"Ling Xi!"

Klein looked at Ling Xi and said quietly, "I hope you won't bring anyone back next time, after all, we still need to keep some spare Hibernation Pod!"

Ling Xi "..."

"Don't worry, I probably won't... uh, at most one person, and I have two Hibernation Pod here, that should be enough!"

Ling Xi initially wanted to say she wouldn't bring anyone back, since she already had Yae Sakura and Yae Rin from this era, but...

Ling Xi suddenly thought of the third S-rank Valkyrie in the Legend of Schicksal, namely Qin Suyi, the seventh disciple of Immortal Fu Hua, and also the grand-disciple of Immortal Fu Hua, Li Sushang!

However, according to the timeline, that girl shouldn't even be born yet, but Ling Xi has already set his sights on her, after all...

In the original story, Otto's Hibernation Pod were most likely discovered through archaeological digs. Now that he has already used the Hibernation Pod at headquarters and taken some with him, it means...

Otto may no longer be able to obtain Hibernation Pod, so Li Sushang may no longer have Hibernation Pod to use in the future. What will happen then?

Therefore, Ling Xi decided to leave one of the remaining two Hibernation Pod for Li Sushang.

Well, although Li Sushang doesn't seem to have much impact on the main storyline in the future, since the people she cares about in the future were basically all born after 2000, and Li Sushang's first appearance in the main storyline should be in 2017, by which time the plot has already reached its later stages!

However, Li Sushang is still an S-rank Valkyrie, and although she seems a bit weak to me, I can still leave her to Otto as a trump card!

As for whether this was aiding the enemy, Ling Xi wasn't worried at all, because she could go to Shenzhou beforehand and make contact with Li Sushang when she was still young, and then...

Li Sushang will most likely become one of my people. That way, even if she works for Otto for the time being, I can make Li Sushang turn against me when needed in the future!

There's no way around it, Otto is really a cunning scoundrel. In the original story, even Ancestor Kevin was outmaneuvered by Otto.
