Baby with Daoist Monarch System

Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Dangerous World! Hand Over That [Celestial Human Form]!

No matter whether it’s driven by his obsession with collecting or the allure of that whole 120 points of Blessed Fortune, Xu Ran’s desire to obtain the Celestial Human Form is very strong.

If he doesn’t achieve his first Golden Achievement in life, he might wake up from a dream at eighty years old, regretting and slapping his thigh in remorse!

But what can a tiny baby do?

He can only cycle through a few simple tasks every day: smiling, eating, and ’self-discipline’.

Time passes quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it’s already the tenth day.

[You smile at Mom and Nurse Doudou Eyebrow and receive a response, Appearance +2, current Appearance 48 points...]

A full ten days of effort.

His Appearance has improved from an unsightly 20 points to 48!

Where did the extra 8 points come from?

Of course, they came from the attending doctor and other nurses who occasionally check on him or pass by... Xu Ran seized the opportunity to sell smiles and received extra rewards!

However, even though he seized every opportunity to sell smiles, he is still 52 points away from achieving the Celestial Human Form...

There’s a whole half to go!

In ten days, he only gained 28 points, with just 5 short days left. Is there still a chance to make up for the other half?

Seems as hard as ascending to heaven!

Xu Ran’s tiny face is full of big worries.

But he can’t find a solution!

He’s just a baby, relying completely on Nurse Doudou Eyebrow to carry him for mobility. Even in the crib, he can only wiggle his arms and legs, and since his spine isn’t fully developed, crawling is difficult...

What to do?

What to do?

On the eleventh day of infancy.

Time is getting tighter!

Nurse Doudou Eyebrow routinely checks Xu Ran’s condition: ”Hi~ smart little baby.”

”Hmm? Little baby, only a bit over ten days old, and you’re not that wrinkled anymore. Your skin is fair and tender. Truly rare!”

Nurse Doudou Eyebrow is quite surprised.

Generally, infants take a month to slowly get better looking, but Xu Ran’s fair and tender skin speed is quite fast!

Skin smooth and clever, a baby who smiles at her, who wouldn’t love him?

Nurse Doudou Eyebrow can’t help but tease Xu Ran.

Xu Ran laughs heartily, starting his daily data-gathering journey.

[You smile at Nurse Doudou Eyebrow and receive a response, Appearance +1, current Appearance 49 points...]

”So smart. Let’s go, sister will take you for a meal.”

Nurse Doudou Eyebrow hands Xu Ran over to his mom.

[You smile at Mom and receive a response, Appearance +1, current Appearance 50 points...]

After the routine meal.

Nurse Doudou Eyebrow holds Xu Ran, ready to place him in the crib.

However, deeply obsessed with the Celestial Human Form, Xu Ran begins to struggle.

He raises the little hands he trained over the ten days, anxiously pointing outside, using the baby’s most potent weapon—crying.

”Wah~”

”Wah~”

”Wah~”

Cry, cry, it’s not embarrassing for a baby to cry, not achieving the Celestial Human Form would definitely be regrettable, so he must cry and fuss to go out and meet more people.

”Oh oh oh, what’s wrong?”

”Do you want to go out and have a look? But you’re only eleven days old.”

Xu Ran cries, struggles, and nods, like a little stubborn seed.

Nurse Doudou Eyebrow is incredibly shocked: ”Even nodding? Lin Qian, your baby is too smart, only eleven days old and already nodding. He’ll definitely be a genius in the future.”

Mom laughed proudly: ”Just a lucky nod? How about... we go out together and take a walk?”

”Sure, I’ll help you carry the baby.”

”Then, thank you, nurse sister.”

Scheme successful, Xu Ran’s tears haven’t dried yet, but he turns crying into joy, letting out a series of pure laughter.

After utilizing everything available, he finally creates an opportunity to interact with other people.

For the Celestial Human Form, the little baby starts selling smiles!

Seeing passersby, he immediately shows a pure smile and opens his little arms for a hug.

”Wow, is your baby not afraid of strangers? How old is he?”

”Only eleven days.”

”Already so cute at eleven days? Truly unbelievable!”

The passerby aunt is stunned, wanting to hold Xu Ran but slightly worried he’s too small.

[You smile at passerby aunt and receive a response, Appearance +1, current Appearance 51 points...]

”Eeya eeya~”

Xu Ran releases laughter at a passerby grandma.

[You smile at passerby aunt and receive a response...]

Thus, from the room to outside the hospital.

Even though he took the route with the fewest people through the back door, Xu Ran still managed to charm them all!

[You smile at the passerby ×14, and receive a response, Appearance +14, current Appearance 65 points...]

All right, all right, gained 16 points of Appearance today.

Rich harvest.

Simply perfect!

”Four days left, more than enough. Come to me, Celestial Human Form!”

Xu Ran was exhilarated.

Sadly, he soon became exhausted, falling asleep in Nurse Bean Brow’s arms. Otherwise, he would have farmed even more Appearance.

...

The next day.

Day twelve of the baby phase.

[You smile at your mom and Nurse Bean Brow, and receive a response, Appearance +2, current Appearance 67 points...]

[You’re held by Nurse Bean Brow and taken outside, you smile at passersby and receive responses ×20, Appearance +20, current Appearance 87 points...]

Today’s smile harvest: 22 Appearance points!

Feeling great!

Everything’s going smoothly!

With a sweet smile, Xu Ran drifted into sleep.

...

Day thirteen of the baby phase.

[You smile at your mom and Nurse Bean Brow, and receive a response, Appearance +2, current Appearance 89 points...]

[You’re held by Nurse Bean Brow and taken outside, you smile at passersby and receive responses ×20, Appearance +20, current Appearance 100 points...]

[You achieved the Golden Achievement — Celestial Human Form!]

Finally hearing the crisp, pleasant notification sound, Xu Ran was satisfied and tiredly fell asleep.

Upon waking up.

Still in the familiar stroller.

Xu Ran immediately checked the [Golden Achievement].

[Celestial Human Form (Golden Achievement)]: Blessed Fortune +20 points;

Each year as you grow, your Blessed Fortune increases by 5, until you’re 20 years old; (Negative effect: You will encounter two abduction events in childhood.)

”Equip!”

Strands of golden light merged into Xu Ran’s body, then on the system interface, his Blessed Fortune surged to 23, a whole 7 times higher than the pitiful 3 he had before.

”Feels great!”

In just thirteen days, he overachieved his task.

Got his first Golden Achievement in life ahead of time.

Truly exciting!

”Though there will be two abduction events in childhood, with the system in hand, what am I afraid of?”

”Anyway, being disciplined can’t be wrong!”

”When the time comes, turn into a giant baby, give the traffickers a little giant baby surprise.”

Xu Ran was secretly delighted, immediately starting to dance with joy.

[Current Strong Baby progress: 13/30...]

In discipline, time flew by quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another seventeen days passed.

The thirtieth day arrived.

At ten in the morning.

The medical staff and security personnel of the War Officer Hospital transferred Xu Ran and his mom to a postpartum recovery center a kilometer away.

At this moment.

Xu Ran finally had a preliminary understanding of the world...

It turns out, this is Blue Star, Xia Country, a completely different space-time.

Two hundred years ago, Crystal Beast Planet invaded Blue Star through a space-time node.

Brought disaster, and brought Spiritual Qi Recovery.

Initially, humanity crumbled like a mountain slide, relying on hot weapons only barely surviving the extinction crisis, buying a bit of time.

And after recovering, the first generation leader of Xia Country, Chen Fan emerged, constructing a system of Cultivation for Qi Blood refinement — Stele Realm, Hill Realm, Mountain Realm, Yue Realm...

Guided by the Cultivation System, human powerhouses emerged successively. They battled the Crystal Beasts for two hundred years.

Although humans reclaimed the land, the oceans remained occupied...

Before the war could be won.

Twenty years ago.

Another Resentful God Planet found Blue Star, launching a ferocious invasion, bringing terrifying spiritual pollution!

Xu Ran’s grandparents all died on duty, dealing with the pollution brought by Resentful God followers.

And his dad, leading a team to resist the Resentful God’s affiliates, the whole squad was sacrificed.

Xu Ran’s family, a line of loyal martyrs.

He could enjoy the care of Nurse Bean Brow in the hospital, stay in the hospital for a month, and then could go with his mom to the postpartum center, all because of the sacrifices of his family.

”Crystal Beast Planet, Resentful God Planet, spiritual pollution, so scary!”

Xu Ran shivered.

More determined to work hard to become stronger.

”One more day of effort today, and I’ll get the [Strong Baby] title, fight fight!”
