Global Apocalypse: Awakening the Soul-Swallowing Talent at the Beginning.

After this exchange, there was another period of silence.

Realizing he was truly powerless to intervene as the Spirit King, Arthur let out a heavy sigh, as if all his burdens had been lifted. He looked at Sun Ying again and said:

"As you said, I won't pry into the specifics."

"But people will ultimately have to stay with the Spirit Race, so you need to tell me exactly what to do next."

"The most urgent thing is to give this woman an identity." Sun Ying turned her head and glanced at the woman on the bed.

Seeing that the other person was still lost in thought and seemed not to be listening at all, he sighed softly and said:

"And while you're at it, give her a name too."

"Otherwise, we wouldn't even know how to address her. We can't just call her 'Hey,' can we?"

“That makes sense.” Arthur and the other two nodded in unison.

After pondering for a moment, King Ling offered his suggestion:

"Identity is easy to obtain."

"Currently, the demonic tide has broken out in the scorching star field, and the situation in other star fields is turbulent. Everyone is too busy to take care of themselves."

“I don’t think anyone would pay attention to the fact that a mother and son, who have always maintained neutrality, have suddenly appeared in a race.

"As long as you avoid Ragnar, Sun Ying, it'll be fine. Based on your previous description, that guy has seen your face before and might recognize you."

Sun Ying nodded, quite agreeing:

"I will disguise myself; I have the mask ready."

As she spoke, she took out a silver skull mask from her storage bag.

The moment she finished wearing it, the aura emanating from the woman changed instantly.

The friendly aura felt by the other spirits vanished instantly, replaced by a faint, lingering chilling killing intent.

When Arthur met the eyes behind the mask, he felt as if he were being stared at by a ferocious beast, and for a moment he didn't even dare to breathe.

"What a powerful item! This thing must be at least epic quality, right?" Armstrong asked with envy and curiosity.

“Mythical quality, pseudo-uniqueness.” Sun Ying’s response came from beneath the mask, her voice completely different from her original tone:

"This is also a gift from that powerful race, forged by the best 'crafting' artisans in their race."

"A pseudo-mythical item? Forged by a player with 'crafting' talent?" Arthur was shocked, his worldview once again shaken.

"How can this be?!"

"In the real universe, the best craftsman planets can only produce the highest quality equipment and items, and that includes Epic items!"

"You said your mask is a fake myth... Can... can I take a look?"

"Here you go." Sun Ying casually took off her mask and handed the item to Arthur.

After careful observation, the latter confirmed that the equipment quality was indeed a pseudo-unique myth, and was once again shocked.

For an ordinary person who has never held a high position and has never planned the development of an entire race, hearing by chance that a craftsman with a 'crafting' talent has forged a pseudo-mythical item might not be of much concern.

At most, one might be surprised by the abundance of capable people in the world, with heroes as numerous as carp crossing a river.

But for Arthur, the king of a race, it meant a lot more!

The powerful race that had cared for Sun Ying for twenty years was able to break through the limits of 'crafting' players, forging a pseudo-mythical item and giving it to a friend from another race.

That means they are fully capable of producing a second, a third, a fourth...

Even mass production!

A good item or piece of equipment can greatly enhance a player's combat power.

The higher the quality, the more obvious the difference!

Without considering whether any players within the clan are chosen ones, divine beings, or even gods—players who transcend the limits of power.

A race capable of forging pseudo-mythical items would absolutely crush a race capable of forging only epic-quality items in terms of overall combat power!

In other words,

That powerful race that took care of Sun Ying for twenty years is fully capable of sweeping across the entire real universe!

Of course, this is without considering beings like those favored by the gods.

If we really consider the actual situation, Arthur estimates that the overall strength of that powerful race should be on par with the Starry Sky Race, one of the strongest races today!

Fortunately, this race has a friendly relationship with Sun Ying.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!

As Arthur handed the mask back to Sun Ying, he couldn't help but recall his somewhat unnatural reaction when the King of the Wind told him that Sun Ying was about to return.

"No wonder he seemed so impatient back then, and told me to pay close attention to Sun Ying's return."

"Now it seems they probably knew all along that Sun Ying was on good terms with that powerful race..."

Unaware of Arthur's thoughts, Sun Ying put on her mask and continued the previous conversation:

"Identity is relatively easy to obtain, but it must be based on solid evidence."

As she spoke, her gaze swept around her surroundings before finally settling on Armstrong.

After watching for a while, he suddenly asked:

"Hey, do you have a wife?"

Armstrong paused, then subconsciously shook his head:

"N-no, I'm still very young..."

"That's perfect, she'll be your wife then." Sun Ying gestured with her chin towards the woman on the bed and said casually.

"Having a child already makes things easier."

Armstrong stared blankly: "Huh?"

Arthur and Florence raised their eyebrows and looked at each other, both seeing the same surprise on each other's faces.

"What's wrong? I'm giving you a goddess wife for free, and you're still not happy?" Sun Ying seemed a little dissatisfied with Armstrong's reaction and asked back.

“It’s not that I’m unwilling, it’s just a bit sudden…” Armstrong scratched his head, unconsciously casting a questioning glance at Arthur:

"My king...?"

"Uh..." Arthur was unsure for a moment, so he turned to look at Sun Ying:

"Is it really necessary to go to such lengths? Usually, no one would specifically investigate this kind of thing, right?"

"Just to be on the safe side!" Sun Ying shrugged.

"...To be on the safe side, we should always consider the worst-case scenario..." The woman, who had been silent on the bed, suddenly spoke, murmuring as if in a dream.

Sun Ying's mouth was pursed into a single line, her eyes filled with helplessness.

At some point, she also became like that guy.

The two of them have only spent a very short time together, probably less than a hundred universe hours in total.

Nowadays, her every move unconsciously reveals the other person's shadow.

“Your Majesty, you see, she said the same thing. We should always consider the worst-case scenario.” Sun Ying Arthur gestured with her lips.

"Although it's highly unlikely that anyone will specifically investigate this matter, it's better to be safe than sorry."

"It doesn't take much effort, does it, Armstrong?"

“Uh… but I don’t have a breeding partner yet…” Armstrong scratched his head again, feeling like he was about to tear the skin off.

He found it quite difficult:

"Arranging a wife for me is no problem... But Your Highness, what if word gets out and I can't find a wife in the future?"
