Chapter 1356

"Why did you come suddenly?"

Bai Xingwei was lying on the bed eating snacks, and she asked in surprise when she saw Miss Luo Quan appear suddenly.

"My water broke, I should be about to give birth."

Miss Luo Quan looked down at her legs and discovered that the water was flowing even more than before.

Uh... this feeling is a bit strange, like wetting one's pants.

"Your water broke?!" Bai Xingwei sat up upon hearing this, rolled on the bed, and came to Miss Luo Quan: "Does your belly hurt? Are you bleeding? Do you have any other discomfort?"

"I don't seem to have any other discomfort." Miss Luo Quan shook her head and then comforted her: "Don't be nervous, it should just be a natural delivery now that the time has come; nothing should go wrong."

"Okay, okay, okay, I'm sending a message to Zhining right now!"

Bai Xingwei took out the "Lingxi Mirror," pressed it a few times, and quickly sent the situation to Ye Zhining.

After only a few breaths, Ye Zhining distorted space and teleported in front of Miss Luo Quan.

"About to give birth?" Ye Zhining looked at Miss Luo Quan with a face full of surprise, then bent down to observe Miss Luo Quan's belly.

One could see the traces of fetal movement; I don't know if it's because she's about to be born, but Luo Ning has also become incredibly active.

"The doctors and nurses are all ready, I'll take you there now."

Ye Zhining straightened up, placed her hand on Miss Luo Quan's shoulder, and then they arrived directly at her harem.

Originally, according to the Pope's idea, Miss Luo Quan was supposed to wait for labor at the Virgin Summer Palace, and he would arrange for nuns and nannies to take care of her.

However, because Miss Luo Quan trusts Ye Zhining more, she ultimately chose to wait for labor in Ye Zhining's harem...

"The Virgin is fine, but it will probably take another day or so for the formal labor to begin; pre-labor contractions are a sign."

After arriving at the ward, the female doctor arranged by Ye Zhining performed an examination on Miss Luo Quan immediately.

Everything is currently in good condition; she just needs to lie on the bed and wait with peace of mind.

"Then do we need to prepare anything else, like plasma, nutritional supplements, or something?"

Ye Zhining has never given birth to a child, and the medical knowledge she learned doesn't include anything related to childbirth, so she could only humbly ask the doctor at this time.

"Nothing is needed." Dr. Zhao closed the virtual tablet and pushed up the glasses on the bridge of her nose: "The Virgin's body is excellent; among the mothers I have seen, she ranks in the top three. The Saint Child's development is also very good, so there won't be any accidents with this birth.

Of course, as a doctor, I must be prepared for all possible unexpected situations, so the ward has everything that needs to be prepared. Your Majesty the Empress doesn't need to worry too much."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Dr. Zhao." Ye Zhining nodded, her expression appearing very relaxed.

After Dr. Zhao left the ward, Ye Zhining sat down by the bed.

Miss Luo Quan had already changed into a hospital gown and was holding a peeled fruit in her hand.

It tasted a bit like an apple, but the texture was much softer than an apple, and it wasn't crunchy at all.

It is said that this fruit can effectively relieve pre-labor contractions, making it less painful when she gives birth.

Although Miss Luo Quan doesn't know how painful pre-labor contractions are, with her constitution, there probably isn't any pain that she would find hard to handle, right?

"You heard what Dr. Zhao said, right?"

Ye Zhining looked at Miss Luo Quan, who was acting so carefree, and said with some amusement: "Why aren't you nervous at all? When I watched my aunts give birth in the past, they and their families were as anxious as ants on a hot pan. You, on the other hand, still have the mood to eat fruit."

"Giving birth isn't like going to the execution ground, what's there to be anxious about?" Miss Luo Quan chuckled, "You guys are just worrying too much, afraid that something might happen to me. The doctor even said it herself, my body is as strong as an ox right now; I couldn't have an accident even if I wanted to."

"Being careful is never wrong." Ye Zhining was amused by Miss Luo Quan's thick-nerved demeanor, and finally said: "Alright then, you rest well in bed, I'm going to handle state affairs first.

This bed will monitor your body's changes at all times. If there are any problems, I will come over immediately, and I'll accompany you into the delivery room then."

"I have one request: no recording, okay?" Upon hearing this, Miss Luo Quan guessed what Ye Zhining was planning to do, so she gave her a heads-up in advance.

"Rest assured, I won't record it." Ye Zhining promised with a tone as if she were swearing an oath.

At the same time, she thought to herself: But I didn't say I wouldn't let the intelligent AI help record it.

"You're an Empress, you have to keep your word." Miss Luo Quan only felt relieved after receiving Ye Zhining's promise.

After Ye Zhining left the ward, Miss Luo Quan took out her phone and filmed a vlog for herself first.

Because she isn't on Earth, her Earth fans can't know her current situation, so she filmed a video to record it and will send it to them to watch after Luo Ning is born.

As for the Huanyu fans, there's no need to be so troublesome; just start a livestream.

After finishing the vlog, Miss Luo Quan opened the livestream screen.

Before she could even speak, the audience sent out bursts of exclamations in the barrage:

"Why are you staying in a hospital ward? Did something happen?"

"Don't scare me, Luo Bao, is it serious?"

"Your complexion feels quite rosy, you don't look like you're sick."

"Could it be that you're about to give birth?"

"Is it that fast?"

"The Virgin's gestation period is much faster than ordinary people's. I've been counting the days; it should be within this half month."

Miss Luo Quan almost couldn't hold it together when she saw this brother counting the days for her, and she laughed: "This fan is right, I am indeed about to give birth. My water just broke a moment ago, and I will start labor within about 24 hours.

At this time the day after tomorrow, everyone should be able to see Ningning."

Barrage:

"???!!!"

"Wuhu, finally about to give birth!"

"Congratulations, Luo Bao, you're finally going to be a mom."

"Damn, hasn't Miss Luo Quan been a mom for a long time? Look at how many 'filial sons' there are in all of Huanyu."

"This mom is not that mom."

"Hahahaha, regardless, Luo Bao giving birth is a huge happy event, I'm so happy."

"The child isn't yours, why are you so happy?"

"Are you stupid? The day the Saint Child is born is the Saint Child's Birthday, and we get two days off!"

"That's a custom of the Divine Protection Federation, what does it have to do with our Saint Tang Heavenly Dynasty. (Doghead. jpg)"

"Damn, I'm so envious. Two days for the Saint Child's Birthday, three days for Christmas, two days for the Holy Spirit's Birthday; adding it up, that's a whole week of vacation, it's just awesome."

"It's too scattered, it's not interesting, unlike the Heavenly Dynasty's New Year holiday, where you get half a month off in one go; that's what you call awesome."

"Indeed."

As they chatted, the topic of the barrage shifted from celebrating Miss Luo Quan giving birth to holidays, and for a while, no one cared about Miss Luo Quan's situation.

But that's normal; after all, her water just broke, and it will be at least another 12 hours before labor officially begins.

And since she's already in the ward, with Huanyu's current medical level, it's impossible for the mother to have an accident; there hasn't been a case of dystocia here for several hundred years.

Even if there really is dystocia, malposition, or an ectopic pregnancy, nano-medical robots will perform a cesarean section on the mother in an instant, and she might not even see any blood.

Of course, the vast majority of mothers are more willing to follow tradition when giving birth, and they won't use technology if they can avoid it.

In traditional superstition, babies born naturally are healthier and easier to raise; even if they suffer pain because of it, those mothers are willing to endure it, feeling that this is a required course for becoming a mother.

Miss Luo Quan belongs to the type of woman with more traditional thinking, thinking that if she has to suffer a bit, then so be it; after all, she has endured the hardships of these past few months, so she doesn't mind this final push.

And she is also quite curious about what the contractions of a mother feel like; many people say it's the kind of pain from a bad stomach, many others say it's like intestinal cramps, and some say it's both combined.

Regardless of the type, one evaluation is the most common: this kind of pain is the limit of what the human body can bear; there is no pain more intense than giving birth.

Miss Luo Quan is definitely not an M-type; she is just curious and wants to experience it.

Soon, the news that the Virgin is about to give birth swept through the entire Huanyu network like a heavy bomb.

Having just met with believers a while ago, she had just reached the peak of her personal reputation and popularity; countless people inside and outside the Huanyu civilization were paying attention to her, all wanting to admire the demeanor of the contemporary Virgin and Saint Child.

Some who were further away had already set off for Huanyu two months ago and had been staying on Huanyu Star during this time just to see Miss Luo Quan once.

Now that the Virgin is about to give birth, these believers have all gone crazy, crying and shouting to see the Virgin once.

Of course, although the believers are fanatical, they aren't idiots; they definitely can't go into the ward to disturb her.

Since Miss Luo Quan is livestreaming while lying in the ward, these believers planned to have a video call with Miss Luo Quan.

Of course, there are many people who want to video call Miss Luo Quan, and it's not just believers who have this idea.

Although Miss Luo Quan's livestream room doesn't allow tipping, one can still send pinned barrages.

So these representatives of cosmic-level civilizations from outside Huanyu all sent barrages, wanting to meet with Miss Luo Quan.

Seeing that there were quite a few people requesting this, Miss Luo Quan said directly: "You all must be ambassadors from other planets. There are too many people; I can't handle meeting you one by one. You might as well find a conference room and gather together, and I'll meet you all at once."

With this tone, those who didn't know might think she was some major leader.

But it is indeed a good method.

And in the eyes of these believers, Miss Luo Quan's status is indeed quite high, basically second only to their own Pope, and this is just because they had just met.

Ten minutes later, these believers of the Heavenly Father from other civilizations, totaling over three hundred people, were all sitting in a conference room.

They were dressed differently, and even their races were not the same; some were normal humans, while others had a few more tentacles on their bodies, or had more scales or feathers or something.

They looked like people evolved from animals.

However, these people all had one thing in common: they all wore a silver-white cross on their chests.

This is the common symbol of the Heavenly Father's believers, symbolizing the torture instrument used by the first Saint Child to suffer on behalf of the world's believers, and it is also a holy object for all believers to atone for their sins.

Miss Luo Quan originally wanted to get one to use as a necklace.

But Benjamin III told her that she doesn't need a cross to atone for sins because she is the Virgin and doesn't need to bear these sufferings.

At that time, Miss Luo Quan got anxious: "Then wouldn't all the suffering have to be borne by Ningning?"

"This is actually a superstitious saying." As the Pope, Benjamin III's eyes flashed with a light called science: "Only the first Saint Child truly suffered, and not every Saint Child needs to suffer.

Let alone whether a newborn child can have any sins; even if they do, one can use an indulgence; internal staff can even get a discount."

"So that's how this thing is used." Miss Luo Quan suddenly realized, and then felt that this world was truly wonderful.

From then on, Miss Luo Quan felt that one couldn't hear many true words from the mouths of these people in power; religion is nothing more than business.

But at least the faith of those believers is real, so no matter how unhappy she is with these big shots, Miss Luo Quan still has to meet them.

Because of this, those believers far away in the starry sky can know of her existence and feel her benevolence.

"Praise the Heavenly Father, it is truly great to be able to see the Virgin. Even if we are hundreds of thousands of light-years away, I believe the believers can still listen to your teachings."

An ambassador flattered her with a face full of smiles. Upon hearing this, Miss Luo Quan curled her lips inwardly: You shouldn't just thank the Heavenly Father, you should also thank me; after all, it was I who took the time to meet with you, yet it sounds like it's someone else's credit.

"I wonder if the Virgin has any arrangements after giving birth to the Saint Child, for example, going to other civilizations to spread your gospel?"

At this moment, an ambassador dressed very similarly to the people of the Saint Tang Heavenly Dynasty stood up and asked.

He was wearing a long-sleeved Chinese garment, and his appearance was significantly different from the other ambassadors, looking more like an Easterner.

It is not strange that the Saint Tang Heavenly Dynasty has Dawn believers, but there should be no historical example of the Dawn Church being established as the state religion. Could it be that far away in the starry sky, there are Easterners who have established the Dawn Church as the state religion?

After noticing that the Virgin's gaze had been on him for a while, this ambassador raised his head excitedly: "Virgin, I am from the civilization of the Great Peace Kingdom in a distant galaxy, and my name is 'Self-Sufficiency Under the Plum Tree'."

After this ambassador finished reporting his identity, the expressions of the other ambassadors were more or less strange, as if this person's civilization seemed to have something quite special.

"'Self-Sufficiency Under the Plum Tree'?" Miss Luo Quan frowned, "What a long name. I see that your appearance and clothing are quite similar to the Saint Tang Heavenly Dynasty, but names here are generally two, three, or four characters."

"That is the result of simplification. Our naming method is more ancient and tends toward complete description."

'Self-Sufficiency Under the Plum Tree' answered respectfully: "Virgin, our Great Peace Dynasty is the most loyal supporter of the Heavenly Father from top to bottom, and there is also the Heavenly Brother, whose status is even higher than the Dawn Church.

So I sincerely invite the Virgin to come to the Great Peace Dynasty and spread your gospel to the believers!"
