Dark clouds covered the sky above the courtyard, and there were faint traces of lightning.
The ground vibrated at a disordered frequency from time to time, and there were various traces of destruction.
A protective formation had been set up in the vicinity long ago to prevent the power from spreading and hurting innocent people. From the outside, there seemed to be nothing unusual in this block.
Everyone was waiting outside the house, and the expressions on their faces were mostly anxious and expectant. The most anxious one was, of course, Chen Rui. He had walked back and forth countless times, and he was drenched in sweat.
It had been half an hour, and Catherine, Isabella, Rolla, and Ben Hong still hadn't come out. They could only hear Athena's suppressed moans of pain.
When Athena was about to give birth, her strength had soared to the early stage of Demigod, and the explosive power of her Power of Destruction was extremely shocking. Therefore, only these few people could go in to avoid danger.
"Is giving birth so painful?" Alice held Jía's hand tightly, looking nervous.
Jía shook her head. "I don't know, either. I just know that this moment alone is enough to show that all mothers are the greatest."
In fact, not only Jía, but the ladies present also had no experience. The only one who had been a mother, Catherine, was helping Athena deliver the baby in the house.
The lightning in the sky was getting more and more intense, and it seemed to be attracted by something, pouring down toward the house. The lightning seemed to contain an extremely pure Power of Destruction. Even though the house was covered with a barrier, it couldn't completely isolate this power, and a large area of cracks appeared.
A light flashed in Chen Rui's eyes, and he had already appeared above the house. His body emitted a strange traction force, and like a magnet, he absorbed all the lightning and sprinkled it on his body.
The lightning kept flashing, and Chen Rui's clothes fluttered violently, but he was as still as a mountain. Although he seemed to have dissolved the lightning easily, he was secretly surprised. The power of this lightning was not to be underestimated, and it was getting stronger. If it was a Demigod like Paglio, he might not be able to take it!
At this moment, the sound of a baby crying suddenly came from the house. The fierce lightning suddenly stopped and quickly began to dim. The dark clouds also gradually dispersed, revealing the two covered moons.
Chen Rui saw Isabella walk out of the house with a small body wrapped in a blanket. His eyes flashed and he immediately landed.
Everyone surrounded him, but Chen Rui didn't look at the child and rushed straight through the door.
"Athena!" Chen Rui came to the room. Rolla was using water magic to clean up the blood in the room and in the air. Catherine was helping Athena wipe her sweat. Ben Hong withdrew the light that covered Athena.
Athena's eyes were tightly shut. Her face and lips were extremely pale, and her body was trembling uncontrollably. However, her life force was still clear. This allowed Chen Rui to relax. He walked to the bed, squatted down, and held Athena's hand.
Athena slowly opened her eyes, "Is it a boy or a girl?"
Chen Rui was stunned, "I haven't seen it yet."
Catherine smiled slightly, "This guy rushed in as soon as possible. He probably didn't even see the child."
Athena was touched, but she felt that he didn't care about the child. She glared at Chen Rui. Catherine said the question she was most concerned about, "It's a very healthy boy. I can feel the pure and powerful life force in him."
"A boy." Athena's eyes lit up.
"It's not only life that is powerful, but also strength." Rolla was very envious of her mother, Athena. She said while cleaning, "This child's strength is at the Demon Emperor level. Although many of our Dragons' children are also born at this level, this child has the talent of destroying the origin. It's easy for him to step into the super rank. Even without the power of Duoduo's God's Descendant, his future achievements are also limitless."
"Strength is secondary. It's fine as long as he can grow up healthy, safe, and happy." A smile appeared on Athena's pale face. It was full of maternal brilliance.
Miss Long blinked her eyes, "Athena, do you remember our last naming contest? If it's a girl, her nickname will be 'Tang Tang'. If it's a boy … "
"En, the child's nickname will be 'Doudou' from now on." Athena smiled and looked at Rolla, "I will tell him that this is the name given by his Aunt Rolla, and … I believe he will be happy in this life."
"En." Miss Long responded with joy. She planned in her heart that when she had children in the future, she would let Athena name them.
"Athena has exhausted too much physical and energy. She urgently needs to rest now. You guys go out first." Ben Hong, who had been silent, said, "I will use the power of the kingdom to help her recuperate for a while."
"Thank you." Chen Rui said sincerely. If it weren't for Ben Hong, it was likely that Athena or the child would be in danger. Now that the mother and child were safe, the gratitude in his heart could not be expressed in simple words.
Ben Hong nodded and said nothing more. He came to Athena's side and sat down. As the light flashed, Athena's body gradually relaxed. Her injuries were also recovering quickly, and she slowly fell into a deep sleep.
Chen Rui, Catherine, and Rolla walked out of the room and saw that Isabella had been surrounded by a large circle of people. It was noisy, and their attention was focused on the little fellow whose nickname should be "Doudou".
The little fellow did not open her eyes, nor did she cry. She just closed her eyes as if she had fallen asleep after the previous cry. She seemed particularly quiet.
Alice's eyes lit up, "Wow, Athena's child is so cute."
"En." Jía and Tiffany said almost in unison.
"It's a little boy. Duoduo, you have a younger brother now." Kia hugged Duoduo and looked at Little Doudou enviously.
Duoduo, who was honored as an elder sister for the first time, asked with interest, "Aunt Kia, can I hug my younger brother?"
"Not yet, Duoduo baby." Delia next to her said with a smile, "When he grows up, you can take him to play with you every day …"
"Little fellow, call me godfather?" Paglio was also a little jealous. That cunning human actually has two children, but I don't have a child. I'll just be a godfather to satisfy my craving first.
Lomont said with a look of contempt, "Tsk, with your drunkard appearance, you want to be someone's godfather? Don't lead the child astray in the future."
"It's much better than a certain widow-con!" Paglio was furious. He accidentally exposed it, "You even dragged me to see the widow named Linda the day before yesterday!"
Lomont felt that Delia's sword-like gaze was about to penetrate his spine. He secretly scolded the poison dragon for tricking his teammate, so he immediately retorted. Isabella, who was holding the child, felt that the saliva of these two was about to spray over. She glared at them, "You two bastards, go away if you want to quarrel. Don't disturb the child!"
"Sister, why does this child not look so beautiful?" Olypheus asked curiously.
"Newborn children are like this. They will become more and more beautiful after a while."
Lala looked regretful, "He's so cute, but he's not a girl. Otherwise, I will risk my life to kiss him and take away his first kiss."
"Little master, you're really handsome …" The slime who couldn't squeeze in shouted loudly outside.
"…"
Chen Rui finally broke through the encirclement, came to Isabella, and took the child. When he saw the little face, a feeling of blood connection arose spontaneously. This was his child, the crystallization of his and Athena's love.
"Okay, give it to me. Look at your clumsy hands." Inni was dissatisfied, and she rushed to hold the child as if she was Little Doudou's real mother.
"Dad, I want to hug too." Duoduo reached out.
Chen Rui laughed and deliberately didn't understand his daughter's meaning. He didn't give Doudou to Duoduo, but he opened his arms and hugged the little girl instead. The little girl angrily grabbed her father's face and rubbed it. After being glared at by Catherine, she immediately got into her mother's arms and acted coquettishly.
Looking at his wife, children, and friends in front of him, Chen Rui felt extremely warm and satisfied. With these, he had no regrets in this life.
Little Doudou's birth brought joy and celebration to the entire yard. Just as everyone was laughing, the sky suddenly lit up.
The light of the 2 moons hanging high in the sky suddenly increased by 10 times, exuding a surprising heat. It actually felt like the "sun" of the world above ground.
Under the illumination of this light, the originally rich aura of dark elements suddenly weakened a lot.
In the space between the 2 moons, a special form of distortion appeared. The magnitude of this distortion became larger and larger. With a bang, it expanded, and a group of light flashed, extending into a beam of light that ran through the sky and the earth.
In an instant, it felt that the world trembled under this beam of light.
The power of this change was almost no less than the previous change in the elemental world. Everyone was dumbfounded. The birth of the Son of Origin of Destruction caused such a big movement?
Catherine looked at this familiar scene, and she suddenly thought of something. Her face couldn't help but change. This wasn't caused by the little pocket, but …
"It turns out to be this!" Ben Hong had appeared in the courtyard out of nowhere, "This kind of thing actually appeared in advance … What does this mean?"
"What is this?" Chen Rui clearly sensed the vibration of the power of the entire Demon Realm, and he asked curiously.
"Gate." Catherine's eyes were intertwined with shock and doubt, "It should have appeared more than a hundred years later, but now it is actually ahead of schedule. At this time!"
The "gate" that will only appear after more than a hundred years? Chen Rui's eyes widened suddenly. He already knew what this was.
The "world gate" that appears once every 500 years!
The last time it appeared should be more than 300 years ago. As Catherine said, under normal circumstances, it should open after more than a hundred years. Unexpectedly now …
This gate will open the passage between the Demon Realm and the human realm. At the same time, it means a real war!
