I Am the Only Fertile Woman in the Game-Chapter 280: Facing It Together

In fact, the employee did not make it clear; when he said one could never come out, he meant that their consciousness could not.

INF Company’s gaming capsules are equipped with essential nutrients to sustain human life, allowing players to remain inside for extended periods without exhausting their bodies or degrading their skills. This is because the company’s internal supervisors work 10-12 hours a day.

If the game world were to be deleted, players who failed to exit in time would suffer severe damage to their consciousness in the game world.

Imagine what would happen to someone in real life if they encountered a natural disaster?

Even if they wouldn’t actually die, experiencing such a realistic catastrophe would psychologically impact them, even without physical injury. And needless to say, if they encountered an extreme accident in the game world, the consciousness would directly stimulate the brain.

Therefore, Han Chen was very clear that although the employee’s words were exaggerated, the risk was real.

"Where is the forced logout button for the gaming capsule?" Han Chen asked.

Each gaming capsule is equipped with a forced logout button to prevent accidents.

"The machine Miss Qiao entered happened to be under maintenance recently, and all the external buttons are non-functional."

Han Chen pressed his temples, closing his eyes in irritation.

"Then hurry up and find a way to cancel the deletion program. Get the head of the operations department over there. I don’t care how you do it, just ensure her safety!"

...

The game world.

As Qiao Suisui opened her eyes, a wall collapsed with a thunderous crash, raising dust that made her cough incessantly.

She waved her hands to dispel the dust and saw clearly where she was—this was the central street of the Federation, close to the property Carl had purchased. She used a flying vehicle to arrive quickly at Carl and her house and expertly entered the password.

Carl, hearing the sound of the door, whirled around and in the next second, he leaped over the sofa and strode over to embrace her tightly.

She knew what he wanted to ask. Her first words were, "I’m fine."

Then she added, "I’m back."

The entire house was shaking, with chipped wall plaster, stones, and light tubes continuously falling from above, but in the midst of the shaking, the two held each other tightly. Carl’s previously tense emotions were eased at that moment.

"I called Leberli to take the kids to the wine cellar. Now take me to the Interstellar Strategy Academy."

Carl nodded and used a breakthrough skill to take her to the school.

On receiving her message, Leberli was overwhelmed with joy and wept. He did as Qiao Suisui had instructed; taking nothing with him, he hurriedly used the Flying Ship to get there with the young ones.

Carl was calling Ruka, but the signal here was much worse than in the outside world.

"This isn’t working—we should split up to look."

Carl disagreed, "This place could collapse at any time. I won’t let you go alone."

Qiao Suisui saw that he was holding onto her hand tightly and had no choice but to accompany him.

Fortunately, both were very familiar with the layout and structure of the school. By the time they reached the third location, they had found Harvis.

"Mom!"

Qiao Suisui embraced the young boy who had darted towards her and asked, "Where’s Ruka?"

"Father is at the military training base; there’s a bunker there that’s usually used for drills."

Qiao Suisui nodded and quickly found the bunker that Harvis mentioned.

She saw Ruka’s coat draped over Lilia. He and summer were trying to seal the entrance with sandbags. When Ruka saw Qiao Suisui, he looked bewildered for a moment, but then his brow furrowed.

"Why did you come back?"

Qiao Suisui was taken aback.

""

Carl acted first, "What do you mean by that, where would she go if she’s not coming back?"

But Qiao Suisui knew what he meant.

Looking at the anxious expression on the man’s face in front of her, Qiao Suisui smiled at him. "Yeah, where would I go if I’m not coming back?"

"I didn’t mean that…" Ruka sighed helplessly, "You shouldn’t have come back, it’s very dangerous here now."

Qiao Suisui stepped forward and hugged the man’s waist, "Even if it’s dangerous, I want to face it with you."

Ruka hugged her tightly in return.

Qiao Suisui nodded at all the young ones and then told Carl to use Breakthrough to take them to the wine cellar.

Leberli had arrived before them and was helping Anubis reinforce the entrance.

When Zong Fang saw the two men and the young ones coming out of the black hole, his palms began to sweat involuntarily, and his throat felt parched. His gaze was fixed behind them, and finally, upon seeing the last delicate figure appear, he rushed over with tears in his eyes and embraced her tightly.

"You came back, you didn’t lie to me."

Qiao Suisui smiled and gently patted his back, "I can’t always lie to you, or my nose would grow long."

Summer sidled up to Carl and asked quietly, "Daddy, does your nose really grow long if you lie?"

Carl crossed his arms over his chest, looking displeased at the two people hugging in front of him, and gave a noncommittal ’hmph’ from his nostrils, "That’s why you shouldn’t learn from your mom; she’s a bad woman."

"Then why do you love her so desperately?"

"Adult matters, kids shouldn’t interfere."

’Boom—’

A loud bang was followed by the wine cellar trembling.

Fortunately, this place was underground and very sturdy, so the shaking lasted only a few seconds before it stopped.

Zong Fang was the first to hold Qiao Suisui tightly, while Ruka and Carl protected the children.

Leberli and Anubis came down from the entrance, shaking the dust off their bodies.

"It’s the membrane hall nearby that collapsed, probably the shockwaves reached the surrounding area." After Leberli finished speaking, he saw Qiao Suisui in Zong Fang’s arms and immediately went over.

"Are you scared? Are you alright? Did you get hurt?"

Qiao Suisui pinched his palm, reassuringly saying, "I’m fine."

She then looked at Anubis who stood still, staring at her without speaking or approaching, just standing there with teary eyes. She walked over and took his hand, asking, "What’s wrong?"

Anubis’s eyes were filled with sadness.

"I should be happy to see you return, but I just can’t feel the joy. Qiao, is your world safe? Can you still go out?"

Like Ruka, Anubis placed her safety before their own, even before their relationship.

Qiao Suisui said, "I might not be able to go out anymore."

She roughly explained to the men what had happened outside.

"…I was just a little bit away from being able to cancel the erasure program, but I didn’t expect this situation to occur. Now, all I can do is to trust Ye Xi. So, right now, I don’t really have a good plan, I just think that if we have to face the end of the world, I want to face it with you guys."

The men were especially touched after listening.

Zong Fang kept a tight grip on her hand and didn’t let go, Ruka touched her hair and said softly, "You’ve been trying very hard, you’ve done well."

Leberli said, "The most important thing is that you are by our side. Suisui, do you know how grateful I am that you were willing to come back?"

Anubis squatted beside her, gently caressing her lower abdomen with his hand. There was worry in his expression, but it was quickly hidden away.

Carl sat on a wine barrel in front of her, stroked his chin with his hand, and asked with narrowed eyes, "So what does personal secretary mean? Like the assistant by Leberli’s side? Or like Angsi who follows behind Sikoses? Surely you’re not expected to be with him 24 hours a day, right?"
