Half a minute later, Nuo Xia's incredible voice sounded in the cabin, "You said you wanted to adopt these two little guys as daughters?!"
"Shh, keep your voice down, don't wake the child up."
Bellmere hurriedly made a hissing gesture. Facing Nuo Xia's gaze, she looked guilty and whispered:
"I know this request is arbitrary, but...I really can't leave them both alone..."
Nuo Xia didn't respond. He just pinched his chin in embarrassment and glanced at the two girls with a frown.
"If it really doesn't work, Noxia."
Having said this, the girl gritted her teeth and looked up into Nuo Xia's eyes, "I will choose to retire and raise them alone on Chaili Island. I promise that they will never, ever cause you any trouble...
"
"well……"
Nuo Xia sighed and rubbed Bellemeier's head, "You have to think clearly, Bellemere, you are only nineteen years old. If you become a mother at this age, it means you have to shoulder a lot of responsibilities.
talent……"
"I'm not afraid. I thought about it last night."
Bellemeier's expression was firm, with a hint of pleading in his tone, "Okay, Nuo Xia, just let me be willful this time. They can't live without me, and I can't bear to watch them anymore."
, was sent to an orphanage..."
"..."
The two looked at each other, and after a long silence, Nuo Xia finally relaxed his brows and said with a wry smile, "Since you have already mentioned this, what else can I say."
"What do you mean..." Bellmere's breathing became rapid, and his eyes sparkled.
"Well, I agree to adopt."
Nuo Xia said with a serious face, "But I don't agree with what you just said, so there is one thing I must say first."
"What?"
Bellemeier's face flashed, and he became nervous again.
"Since we have decided to adopt them, they are not only your daughters, but also my daughters."
Nuo Xia bent down and kissed her forehead gently. When he raised his head, he couldn't help but chuckle: "So how can I let you take on this responsibility alone?"
"When you return to the 16th branch base, you can bring them to live in the headquarters. By the way, bring your parents with you, so that you don't have to be separated and can be together as a family."
A family, living together...
His heart dropped suddenly as he raised his throat, and the sudden feeling of happiness hit Bellemeier's mind even more violently.
The girl was in a daze for a long time, and subconsciously showed a bright smile. The next moment she reacted suddenly, feeling ashamed and angry, she suddenly jumped up and punched Nuo Xia in the stomach.
"You bastard..."
She said angrily, "What are you talking about? Who is a family member to you? We are obviously not married yet!"
"Ha, it's only a matter of time."
Nuo Xia laughed and allowed the embarrassed girl to punch him in the belly.
His embarrassment just now was naturally just an act.
Ever since he met Perona a few months ago, his desire to raise a daughter has become even stronger. Now that he has this opportunity in advance, how could he be unwilling?
Not to mention the two very cute and beautiful little princesses who have to be raised, Nami and Nokigao...
The reason for this reaction is firstly due to process requirements. When a normal person faces a couple's request for adoption, they are always embarrassed at first, so he always has to pretend.
Secondly...
This is to make Bellemeier feel a little guilty about this, increase his tolerance for him, and prepare for the upcoming "Shura Field".
That's right.
He has had enough of jumping back and forth between three partners, being secretive, and having to endure the pain of missing each other all the time.
And if nothing goes wrong, he will be stationed at the headquarters for several years.
Therefore, it is time for the harem group to meet and talk things out. As long as the most difficult issues are resolved, the wedding can be put on the agenda together.
This wave, this wave he is on the fifth floor.
As for bringing his father and mother together to the headquarters, it was a decision he made this morning after he was formally appointed by Cyborg Kong.
He didn't do this last year because his workplace was in the West Sea and he didn't have many enemies. But now that he has returned to his headquarters, he has provoked the two giants of the Beasts Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates at the same time...
After all, it would be most appropriate to bring the whole family to live in the headquarters.
"Right..."
The girl in her arms vented for a while, then couldn't help but raise her head in confusion, "I didn't ask you just now, Nuo Xia, how did you know that I was here and how did you come here so quickly?"
"you guess?"
Nuo Xia raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile.
"Forget it if you don't tell me." Bellemeier snorted, crossed his arms and turned his head away.
Hey, that’s boring, Nuo Xia pouted, she’s already a mother, but she’s still so arrogant.
If Shia were here, she would be like a curious baby, cooperating with him to ask questions. In the end, she didn't guess, and was spanked as punishment. She knelt in front of the bed and turned her head away, blushing and stammering.
Praying for the final answer...
"Well, look for the life card I gave you before and see if it's still there."
Nuo Xia didn't show off anymore and said with a smile.
Bellemeier looked at him inexplicably.
"It must be there. I've been keeping it close to my body..."
The girl's right hand reached under her collar and fumbled in the seam of the protective jacket for a while. Suddenly she was stunned and looked up at Nuo Xia blankly.
"No need to look for it anymore, it has been burned to ashes."
Nuo Xia took out a brand new life card from his trouser pocket and handed it over, "Here, this is new, keep it."
The girl took the life card in a daze and looked through it carefully. She didn't see anything special, so she could only look up at Nuo Xia blankly, waiting for his explanation.
"This is a mysterious old witch. In order to repay me for saving my life, she used all her skills to create a specially made life card."
Nuo Xia smiled and said, "It allows me to sense your danger and teleport it immediately. It's a bit similar to the ability of space fruit... So you should understand?"
He planned to take the secrets of the system into the coffin, and no one would reveal them at all.
However, these props are consistent with the world of pirates and are not beyond the scope of ordinary people's understanding. It is okay to let the people closest to you and trust them know about them.
Bellemere is naturally one of them.
"There is such a magical thing..." Bellemel stared at the life card, suddenly raised his head, bit his lip and asked, "This should be very precious, you don't have many in total, right?"
"Don't worry, there are two left."
Nuo Xia laughed, sat down by the bed, crossed her legs, and said, "After giving you this one, I still have a spare one, so just accept it with peace of mind. Otherwise, I won't be able to rest assured if we separate again in the future."
Are there only two left...
Bellemeier was stunned and bowed her head in silence. She vaguely remembered that last year on Chaili Island, Nuo Xia gave Tulip and his wife one, so there should only be four in total, right?
Just spend half of it on yourself...
She carefully put away the life card.
Then under Nuo Xia's astonished gaze, he snorted and suddenly pounced on him, biting his lips fiercely like a ferocious dwarf tiger, then hugged his neck and kissed him deeply.
"Holy crap!...Easy, gentle..."
"Hey?? Why are you taking off your clothes..."
"Do you want to be here? It's daytime. The kid next to you is still sleeping... um..."
The rest of the words were finally blocked by the girl's soft and tender tongue.
————————
When we returned to Malinfando, it was still half past three in the middle of the night, the sky was still dark, and the surroundings were pitch black.
Nuo Xia walked out of the grove with her hands on her waist, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, put on her coat, and moved towards her residence with a tired look on her face.
"I really underestimate Bellemere..."
Recalling the charm that lasted for nearly ten hours, Nuo Xia couldn't help but twitch at the corner of her eyes.
"Sure enough, it was the wisest decision to bring them all back to the headquarters. Otherwise, we would have been separated for a year and a half each time. Who could withstand the fierceness..."
It is true that he has great endurance, but public food is limited!
On the way, he opened the system bar and looked at the life card in his backpack, the secondary card that symbolized Rosinandi. The icon had dimmed, announcing that it was burned out.
He had no choice but to rush from Marineland to the East China Sea during dinner time. It was impossible to return by other means before dawn, so he had to consume an additional life card.
I have the last one left. I have to find an opportunity tomorrow to slip it onto Rocinante without anyone noticing.
This way everything can be perfectly concealed.
As for the pirates on the East China Sea side, he had already wiped out all the pirates, and the remaining sailors were also told by him not to spread the news of his visit.
Given his prestigious status, these sailors would certainly not have any doubts.
Some people who like to speculate are already secretly guessing whether Lieutenant General Nuo Xia is performing some secret mission in the East China Sea. They must keep this secret for the Lieutenant General...
As for the credit for annihilating the Black Bat Pirates, Nuo Xia didn't look down upon it at all, so he distributed it to these sailors, and Bellemere naturally took the lion's share.
If nothing unexpected happens, after she returns to the 16th branch and reports the battle situation, she will be promoted three levels in a row and become a major of the branch.
"But the strength is still a bit too weak."
Recalling the previous scene where Bellemere was almost helpless in the hands of the black bat Murray, Nuo Xia touched the stubble on his chin and thought to himself——
Well, anyway, he will be relatively free in the next few years. After Bellemare comes to the headquarters, he might as well take some time out for one-on-one training.
Then, when the new elite camp opens in the spring of next year, we will ask the girl if she is willing to go there and study for two years.
Anyway, based on his reputation in the headquarters, recommending Bellemere to join the camp was as simple as saying hello.
Just when I was thinking about it, I unknowingly arrived at the door of my house, and the bright light next door attracted Nuo Xia's attention.
He turned his head and looked around, and saw that in the brightly lit living room, Ace was crying loudly. Garp clumsily coaxed him for a long time, but he couldn't coax him well. He was scratching his head and scratching his head anxiously, jumping on the spot...
"Catch more."
Nuo Xia couldn't help but sneered, "It's better to raise a daughter. How well-behaved my daughter is. When Nami and Nuo Qi get older in the future, this will definitely not happen."
He pushed the door open and walked in. After briefly washing up, he sat in front of the sofa, opened the system panel, and began to sort out the gains from his trip to the East China Sea.
On the surface, it seemed that he was forced to use up two precious life cards and almost lost money. But in fact, it was completely the opposite. The harvest this time was so rich that it completely exceeded his expectations.
Needless to say, having two more adorable daughters is the undoubted biggest gain of this trip. Even after a whole night passed, Nuo Xia still couldn't help but feel silly when she thought about this.
The so-called harvest beyond expectations actually refers specifically to the reward for completing this mission:
"The third phase of the side mission "Rescuing the Girl" has been completed"
"Mission phase rewards: 200,000 points, random attribute point*1"
"Side mission completed"
"You have received the final stage reward: 300,000 points, random attribute points*3, S-level gift box*1"
"Overfulfillment detected: 4/3"
"You have received additional rewards: 100,000 points, random quality item package*1"
…
In the past year, Nosha has successively rescued Robin and Perona, two important female characters in the original work, meeting the mission determination requirements and completing the first two stages.
So when Bellemere was rescued this time, his two daughters were also saved. The completion of the task was also expected by Nosha.
But he never expected that the system, which had always been stingy and strict, would actually judge him to have exceeded the target this time and mercifully gave him an extra reward.
This is completely an unexpected surprise.
"In total, I got a total of 600,000 points, 4 random attribute points, and two gift boxes..."
After the settlement, Nuo Xia decided to start with the "random quality item package" as an extra reward. He had opened gift boxes of various levels several times, but this was the first time he had seen it.
"What can be offered..."
He rubbed his hands expectantly and clicked on the prop bag. There was no roll point or dice. Only a faint blue light flashed and a prompt box popped up:
[You opened the random quality item package and received a special life card*8]
Eh?
Nuo Xia's eyes widened and she wanted to complain, "That's it?", but she watched helplessly as the remaining balance of her "Special Life Card" secondary card changed from "1" to "9"...
Well, it smells really good after all.
"Speaking of which, this thing was not expensive in the mall back then."
He held his chin in thought, "But it has been so long since then, and it hasn't appeared again. There is probably not much hope in the future, so after all, I still made money..."
After all, the practicality of this thing is really much better than the other piles of junk in his backpack.
"Next is the S-class gift box..."
Nuo Xia glanced around. He had just opened three A-level gift boxes yesterday. The final results could only be said to be unsatisfactory. He hoped that this S-level gift box would have more surprises...
[Click the roll, please wait]
After clicking it, the familiar blue dice pops out, with the same six faces each marked with type text.
[End of roll point]
[Type of reward for this gift box: consumables]
The prompt box disappeared, and two pills shining with golden light appeared in the void, illuminating Noxia's astonished face:
