Super Gene - Chapter 2720

Chapter 2720: 2720

“That is a very beautiful gem,” Bao’er said as she peered at the gem in Empty God’s hand .

Her eyes brightened with interest .

Empty God’s lips curled up at the corners . He looked cocky as he said, “Do you want it? Just say you want it and it is yours . ”

“Really?” Bao’er looked surprised . She gazed at Empty God with disbelief .

“Of course . As long as you say what you want, a cute little girl like you can have anything you’ve ever dreamed of,” Empty God said chivalrously, his voice smooth and coaxing .

“You’re a great guy!” Bao’er said with excitement .

Empty God laughed . He held the gem in front of Bao’er and smiled . “Just say you want it, and this gem will then belong to you . ”

Bao’er looked longingly at the gem, and her hands slowly reached out for the gem .

Empty God hid a snide smile as he thought to himself, “Female creatures are all alike . They are just like those ugly dragons . No matter how old they are, they love all things shiny . ”

But Bao’er suddenly pulled her hand back . With a look of disappointment, she said, “I actually don’t want it . ”

“What? Why do you suddenly not want it?” Empty God asked in surprise . He had been caught off guard when the girl changed her mind .

“Mom says that I can’t take gifts from strangers . ” Bao’er’s face looked very serious when she said this, but her eyes were still locked on the gem . It looked as if she was struggling to keep herself from reaching out and taking it .

“I see,” Empty God said with a smile . “You can’t accept things from strangers, of course . But I’m not a stranger . I’m a good friend of your father . You can take something from me because of that, can’t you?”

“You are a good friend of my father?” Bao’er asked, her eyebrows rising .

“Yes . We are very, very good friends . ” When Empty God said that, the words he spoke were stressed . Each word was pronounced heavier than the last .

“If you are Dad’s good friend, then we really aren’t strangers!” Bao’er said happily .

“Of course we aren’t!” Empty God said with a shake of his head .

“Thank you, Uncle . In that case, I’m going to take the gem . ” Bao’er reached out her hand to grab the gem in Empty God’s hands .

As she reached toward it, Empty God wasn’t sure if he should let it go or continue holding onto it . Bao’er hadn’t declared her wish yet . If she took it now, Empty God wouldn’t receive anything in return .

Empty God didn’t respond, and Bao’er stared at him with confusion . She said, “Uncle, do you not want to give me the gem? If that is so, then that is fine . Mom told me not to steal other people’s items, anyway . ”

Bao’er’s words might have been gracious, but her face was filled with disdain . She thought Empty God was very cheap by not giving her the gem .

“Ahem, ahem . You still haven’t told me whether or not you want it,” Empty God said . He was looking a bit uncomfortable now .

“Uncle, this gem is obviously important to you . You should keep it for yourself . ” With those words, Bao’er lowered her hand and turned around to leave .

Although she didn’t say anything more, she had a look of scorn as she turned away . It made Empty God feel more depressed than he had in a long time .

He was Empty God, but he was despised by a child .

“Don’t go, Bao’er! Your uncle was planning on giving you this gem as a gift . I wasn’t in my right mind . You should take it from me now . ” Empty God didn’t really care about the gem, and giving it to Bao’er might allow him to gain her trust . He wasn’t going to let her run off so easily .

“You are really going to give it to me? Aren’t you going to miss it?” Bao’er looked wonderingly up at Empty God .

“To me, this gem is just a measly rock . It is worthless compared to the other things in my possession . ” Empty God placed the gem in Bao’er’s hands .

“Thank you, Uncle . You are a good guy . ” Bao’er held the gem and smiled .

“I’m glad you like it . ” Empty God smiled, but on the inside, he was thinking, “I was worried you wouldn’t take it . Now that you’ve fallen into the habit of taking things that I offer, this should be easy . ”

Bao’er really liked the gem . She focused her attention on it carefully as she played with it .

Empty God reached into his pocket and brought out another gem that was even bigger and prettier than the first . He said, “Bao’er, do you not think this gem is even prettier? Would you like it?”

Bao’er looked at the gem in Empty God’s hand . It was as large as a man’s fist . She blinked at the sight of it and said, “It is way too big . I’d feel rather snobby if I had it . I like this one more . ”

After that, Bao’er went back to playing with the gem in her hands, completely ignoring Empty God .

Empty God felt depressed . He had assumed that offering a bigger and prettier gem would get Bao’er to put blind faith in him . Instead, however, the gem had led to his abandonment .

“It looks like using gems to attract Bao’er will no longer work . ” Empty God rolled his eyes and came up with something new .

“Bao’er, look at this . ” Empty God stepped over to Bao’er and pulled out something to show her .

Bao’er was sitting atop the Star Fruit, but she raised her head to take a look . Empty God was holding an old bronze mirror . The mirror was only ten centimeters long, and it looked very delicate .

The front was smooth and glossy . On the back of the mirror, lines spread from the center of the mirror to its edges, like a sundial or a compass . Strange symbols were etched in each space between the lines .

“What is this?” Bao’er asked Empty God with curiosity . The man was holding the mysterious mirror out so that she could see it .

“This is the Star Gauge Mirror . It is a true god-class treasure . This device will allow you to see the past and the future,” Empty God said, lavishing praises on the old mirror he was now presenting . Although he was embellishing what it was capable of, the mirror really was quite special . Empty God had wanted the mirror badly, and it had taken him a lot of time and effort to get his hands on it .

Empty God and King Jun called themselves God, but they couldn’t make something out of nothing . Everything that they could use or control already existed in the universe in some form . They couldn’t just magically conjure up any item they wanted .

That Star Gauge Mirror was a precious treasure that had come from a true god elite who had lived a billion years ago . Empty God had struggled to lure that true god elite for hundreds of years before the elite fell into his trap . The elite made a wish, and Empty God stole the elite’s lifespan . He also gained control of the Star Gauge Mirror .

Empty God was very proud of what he had accomplished . There had been another God that was also trying to trick the true god, but he had failed . Empty God had claimed the victory and the treasure . So, even though the mirror might have been useless, he still carried it around with him . Now, it presented a perfect opportunity to trick Bao’er .

“Is the mirror really that powerful?” Bao’er asked in disbelief .

“Of course, it is . Just watch it,” Empty God said . His hands pressed against the Star Gauge Mirror, manipulating the symbols on the back .

A flickering light appeared on the surface of the old mirror . After a while, the light resolved into a slightly unsteady image, like a show playing on an old TV .

The Star Tree stood in the center of the image . There were a bunch of Star Beetles swarming over the tree like an ocean wave . Han Sen was fighting those Star Beetles .

Upon closer inspection, Bao’er realized that it was an image of Han Sen participating in the test at the Star Tree .
