Chapter 16

The cat had a fever and his eyes were swollen and uncomfortable, so he stretched out his paws and rubbed his eyes.

Yan Xuanjin thought the cat was crying, and his heart suddenly jumped. He quickly wrapped the cat in his arms, carefully took off its front paws, and observed its condition.

The kitten was confused due to the fever and did not realize for a moment that it had acquired the ability to speak human language. It was still confused and thought that the voice it heard in its ears was actually the result of silent recitation in its mind.

"It hurts..." The kitten murmured unconsciously.

Yan Xuanjin froze and asked anxiously and worriedly, "What's wrong? Where does it hurt?"

The cat was dazed, its mind occupied by the aching sensation all over its body. It had no time to think about why this human could suddenly understand what it was saying. It just replied obediently, "...It hurts everywhere."

Yan Xuanjin was at a loss and was about to take the cat to the elk to take another look when suddenly his nose twitched and the whole room was filled with the scent of guide essence. This warm smell, like clouds illuminated by the setting sun, was not unfamiliar. He had smelled it on the kitten several times.

Finished...

Yan Xuanjin's arms reflexively tightened, hurting the cat in his arms. He immediately relaxed his arms, but he didn't dare let the cat stay near him anymore. The smell was too tempting for him, even too strong.

Normally, only Sentinels and Guides of the same level, with a 90% match, would have such a terrifying attraction, and this attraction was also two-way...

Yan Xuanjin was completely enveloped in this aura, its rich aroma permeating his body. He pondered these thoughts with his sluggish brain, but the furry sensation at his feet prevented him from continuing his thoughts.

The cat is coming...

The temperature in the room continued to rise, and the base's air circulation system seemed to have lost its function.

Yan Xuanjin once again swallowed the saliva that was madly secreted from his mouth. His Adam's apple rolled again and again, and his clenched fists exerted force again, using the pain to gain a moment of clarity.

Inhibitors...

Yes, the elk gave him a suppressant...

Yan Xuanjin stumbled away from the wall he'd been leaning against and took two steps toward the workbench, nearly tripping over his own suddenly emerging spirit. But at that moment, he had no time to reprimand anyone. The only clear thought in his mind was the inhibitor on the workbench.

Step by step.

Yan Xuanjin gritted his teeth and slowly walked to the place that was extremely clear in his sight.

He reached out to take it, but his hand was shaking badly.

He paused, then fiercely bit off a piece of flesh. The intense pain rekindled his numbed nerves. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yan Xuanjin quickly inserted the inhibitor into his arm, then pressed the piston down with a trembling, weak hand.

"call……"

He slowly slid down to the ground, leaning against the workbench. The cat was still rubbing against the edge of his pants, and on his back was a black wolf that was several times bigger than him.

The injection wasn't done properly, but it was just the right amount of pain.

The blood slowly flowed down Yan Xuanjin's arm, dripped onto the ground, and was then gently licked away by the cat.

The vision that was shrouded in black mist finally became clear. Yan Xuanjin frowned, stood up with the help of the table leg, glanced at the black wolf that was pressing the cat tightly under him, and tried to force it back into his mental image - but failed.

He no longer had enough energy to control Black Wolf's behavior.

Yan Xuanjin fell onto the bed and closed his eyes deeply. Just before he fell into a dream, he scolded Heilang, "Don't press him down. It hurts."
