Chapter 98
-
Zeus woke up the next day, sat up slowly, and touched the quilt casually. He seemed to touch something, and his pupils trembled. He took it out and saw that it was a cat's tail.
He lifted the covers again and saw that the bed was covered with cats.
The four cubs slept on each side around him, like four furry dolls, rising and falling slowly with their breathing, their higher body temperatures making the quilt warm. Some of them lay prone, some turned over on their stomachs, their claws clenched like caterpillars.
"this……"
Hughes' brain seemed to freeze for a moment, and he blinked, wondering if he had seen it wrong. Then he touched his side, and the touch was real and warm. Only then did he confirm that this was not a dream. The children actually climbed onto his bed to sleep!
Although this has happened before, isn’t the number today a bit too much?
He couldn't help but wonder, why is this?
Zeus cast his eyes towards the cat bed in the corner of the room, wondering in his heart, could it be that the cat bed was uncomfortable to sleep in, so the children came to sleep on the bed?
He moved his eyes around the room and found that the white cat was still sleeping soundly, with its fat body curled up in a ball, looking extremely cute.
The other cat in the room that did not climb onto the bed was the most virtuous dwarf cat in his family.
"Cele." Xius couldn't help but call out the name.
The short-legged cat was suddenly called, and the action of pushing the milk cup paused for a moment. Then, he slowly turned his head and let out a soft meow.
He is wearing a light blue lace apron today. The style of the apron is exquisite and cute, and it is another critical hit of the old father's special attack.
Zeus looked at the little dwarf cat, a trance flashed across his eyes, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and a doting smile appeared on his face.
Meow... eh? His children are all able to talk now, but they still maintain the habits of cats, and seem to have some special hobbies.
But, in a sense, their personalities are inherently cat-like, right?
Zeus understood it as a kind of cosplay, found that it was indeed the case, and then immediately felt relieved. Haha, no matter what, as long as they like it.
They were all still asleep, and if he got up, he would probably wake them up.
Zeus hesitated for a moment, and got up half an hour late, which was a rare occurrence. He picked up the alchemy book on the bedside table, read it for a while, and waited.
After a while, the light from the balcony outside the window poured into the room and just happened to shine on the little Siamese cat's butt.
The little Siamese cat who was lying in bed felt his butt getting warmer, and his eyes narrowed, then opened. He was confused for a moment, and then his gaze turned to the black-haired young man leaning against the wall.
His eyes suddenly lit up. "Meow! Father! I saw my father when I woke up in the morning."
The little Siamese cat jumped up and rushed into his father's arms immediately, but meow, he only took a few steps and suddenly tripped!
The demon was Amon, who had just woken up. He saw Butis trying to run away first, so he quietly stretched out his cat claws and successfully tripped the little Siamese cat.
The little Siamese cat was furious at the moment, staring at Chinchilla Amon fiercely with a sharp gaze. After successfully tripping the little Siamese cat, Amon quickly stood up and fled the scene at an astonishing speed, even faster than a rabbit.
However, in the next second, Amon suddenly fell to the ground with a thud. It turned out that what tripped him was an orange cat's tail. Amon was immediately furious and stared at Bryce fiercely, the fat orange cat who committed a "crime".
Although Brice is usually a polite and friendly demon who does not usually argue or fight with his fellow demons, he becomes unusually tough when it comes to protecting his father.
"You two are so abominable for wanting to attack Father so early in the morning, meow!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fat Orange rushed over without hesitation.
However, in the next second, He also tripped unexpectedly.
The gray cat didn't mean to do it, he just happened to wake up, but the fat orange cat stepped on him and tripped himself.
The gray cat was speechless, but as the cat closest to his father, he naturally had priority!
Inbosi immediately turned around and took action.
However, the little Siamese and the little Chinchilla were not vegetarians. They reacted quickly and realized how could they let the gray cat be so arrogant!
Charge!
The two flying cats suddenly pounced forward and pinned the gray cat down in one fell swoop.
Yin Bosi was cursing in his heart, did these guys have to make things go to this point?
Seeing that the situation was not good, Fat Orange shouted, "Brother, I'm here to save you!"
However, He accidentally tripped and fell, and the whole cat fell heavily on the other three cats like a mountain.
This time, they couldn't hold back any longer and meowed loudly, attracting the attention of the black-haired young man by the wall.
Xiusi was reading a book, but he didn't know that his children were awake, and... He looked carefully and was stunned.
What are they doing? They hold each other's paws, hug each other, and hold each other tightly, like a string of tightly connected cat balls. They look so soft and cuddly.
Xius couldn't help but smile. The children were active and playing so closely in the early morning. It seemed like they had a very good relationship.
His smile stunned the cats for a moment. Their claws that had been tightly grasping their fellow cats also relaxed, and a sentence jumped out of their minds in unison:
Meow, dad looks so good when he smiles!
It is said that the average cat's brain weighs only 30 grams. After they became cats, their brains naturally became like cats, and each one is dumber than the other.
The little dwarf cat sat on the bedside table, looking at his brothers' silly looks and tilted his head.
At this time, Hughes saw that the children had woken up, so he began to make the beds and get ready to get up. He said softly, "Get up early, let's go out and bask in the sun."
He gently picked them up from the bed one by one. When he came to the orange cat, he paused for a moment, and then successfully carried the chubby orange cat off the bed.
The orange cat's fur was soft and full, and felt great. Hughes couldn't help but stroke its fur gently, and even lowered his face to rub it affectionately. However, he didn't notice that the four cats behind him were staring at him intently.
They began to whisper, secretly wondering: Does Dad really prefer chubby cats? But Dad's waist seems to be not very good. They saw with their own eyes yesterday that Dad almost sprained his waist when he was holding the third brother!
What can be done? What strategy should be adopted?
Thus, a morning full of cat-and-mouse flying and intrigue began.
The fat orange boy came to his senses and found that he had also been caught up in the spiral of vying for favor. The vying was endless and he even disturbed his father.
At noon, Hughes sat at the door of the bookstore, put down the book in his hand, and read the news.
[Alliance: The seven great magic families have almost confessed everything, but they dare not reveal who is the mastermind behind the scenes]
[Aos: It is said that they found out that they are from the Church of Dawn]
[Oedipus: The Church of Dawn is all over the world. Some people have long said that they have evil intentions and are secretly infiltrating various countries. Our country suspects that the Church of Dawn is the behind-the-scenes force of the seven major magic families.]
[Chaos: I agree. Our country has begun to eradicate all churches and industries of the Church of Dawn and thoroughly investigate their actions over the years.]
[Roman: Does the Chaos Empire have any thoughts on the situation of the God of Chaos?]
[Hammurabi: The size of the God of Chaos is growing. Sooner or later, it will completely cover our planet. Does the Chaos Empire have a solution for this?]
The pressure seemed to be put on the Chaos Empire.
This is normal. The Chaos Empire is the only country among all human countries that once believed in the God of Chaos. They have studied the God of Chaos and developed a theological theory centered on the God of Chaos. They should provide effective ideological and theoretical guidance for dealing with the God of Chaos, and even become the pioneers of anti-chaos. If they think that believing in the God of Chaos is something they should repent.
However, the Chaos Empire has not responded yet. Ten minutes have passed, and the system still does not show any of their diplomatic movements.
The long wait has caused other countries to become suspicious.
They couldn't help but wonder if the Chaos Empire was likely to side with the God of Chaos and join forces with him to protect itself. After all, as a country that believed in the God of Chaos, they had a deep foundation of faith, and such a move might not cause much opposition.
"How will things develop?" Xius thought to himself.
He was currently only level 45, so his influence on world events was negligible, so he could only observe and understand as much as possible, just in case something happened, and ensure the safety of his children.
Just as Hughes was lost in thought, he suddenly felt a gentle tapping sensation. He looked up and saw that it was the short-legged cat gently tapping his arm with its paws.
The cat's paws were pounding and kneading, obviously imitating human massage movements.
Regardless of whether this kind of massage can really relieve fatigue, just this scene alone makes Xiusi feel his heart melted by cuteness!
Seeing this, the other cats also ran over to help.
In a blink of an eye, a large group of cats gathered around Hughes.
Don’t even mention how happy the old father must be!
After a while, the Siamese cat cursed the Chinchilla cat inwardly: "Amon, why don't you go do your homework? Why are you pestering your father here?"
The Chinchilla cat laughed and said, "I have already started doing my homework. I can write very quickly next to my father!"
The silver cat who had just crawled out from under the quilt was speechless, "Can you two perverts please stay away and stop disturbing your father. Your father needs to study!" Beelzebub was pinned down by the fat orange cat, and he slept so soundly that he didn't even know he was almost crushed.
Butis and Amon said at the same time: "If you say such things, get off your father's lap first!"
The silver cat was shameless and said sternly: "Father is mine!"
The Siamese cat was furious: "I have the guts of a wolf and a leopard! My father is mine!"
Jinjila snorted coldly: "All of you get out of here, my father is mine!"
The three cats refused to give in to each other and the hostility between them was surging.
At this critical moment, a mature and steady demon is urgently needed to take control of the situation and quell this ugly fight!
Gray Cat was stunned when he saw all this. He muttered in a low voice: "You are talking nonsense. Do you dare to say it in front of Big Brother..."
The short-legged cat next to him looked confused, almost squeezed by the tense atmosphere between them and had nowhere to go. His eyes were full of fear and confusion, and he let out a weak meow helplessly.
Seeing this, Fat Orange sighed helplessly, quickly stood on a high place, used his power of words, and shouted loudly: "That's enough! Stop fighting!"
His voice was full of spiritual power and he successfully took control of the situation.
The gray cat and the shorthair cat looked at the fat orange cat at the same time.
The three prickly cats were stunned for a moment, but they quickly reacted and shouted in dissatisfaction.
"What is enough?"
"Bruce, you occupy the largest area!"
"You are not qualified to say that."
They were unruly and sweary.
The fat orange man put his hands on his hips, making himself look even bigger, and shouted, "Have you forgotten that we have to deal with the mastermind behind this?"
The five cats suddenly paused, their eyes gradually united. Yes, they have a common enemy, that guy has hurt my father many times, and is still planning to hurt my father. A man can endure, but a demon cannot, kill, kill, kill!
Fat Orange's voice carried the unique appeal of a wandering poet, and he said in a resolute voice: "We cannot fight among ourselves. Fighting among ourselves will only weaken us. We must unite and work hard to catch that bad guy!"
Oh, good job, fat boy, you are quite good at speaking!
But in Zeus's ears, they were just meowing from beginning to end.
The meows were talking in encrypted language, and it was impossible to understand what they were saying. Zeus looked at them from the corner of his eye, thinking that they were probably chatting.
He stood up, and they magically hung on him as if they knew kung fu, and seemed to have controlled their weight, so that he only felt like there were a few cat-shaped balloons on his body.
Haha, so cute.
He took the stunned little cat with him and walked slowly to the bedroom, as if he was going to take a nap.
He had no habit of taking a nap, not since he was a child. Occasionally, when he was tired, he would just close his eyes for a while, but today he felt a little uneasy.
It’s not because the children are lively again, but…
Hughes was confused. He seemed to have caught the voice of a child, but he couldn't be sure where the child was. He had an impulse to ask about the child's situation, what he was thinking, and whether he was okay. However, his inquiry fell on deaf ears and he received no response.
At this moment of confusion, Xius suddenly thought that perhaps he could communicate with the other party on a spiritual level through meditation.
Deep in his heart, he seemed to catch a faint sound, which seemed to be Lelakin's voice, although it was extremely subtle and almost indistinguishable.
The cats were lively at first, but at this moment they seemed to sense Zeus' mood. After returning to the room, they became quiet, staring at him with their bright big eyes.
Xius couldn't help but ask, "Is Lelakin in trouble?"
When the cats heard this question, their eyes widened, as if they were surprised that Hughes suddenly asked this question.
But what trouble will Lelagin get into?
At this time, the big orange cat spoke up: "Fourth brother is looking for Lela Jin meow, and fifth brother meow."
Hughes: "Did they say anything?"
The big orange cat shook his head, "I haven't said anything yet, meow."
"Yeah?"
"We should find it soon, meow."
"Is He going to be alright?"
"No, meow, we can sense His breath, meow!"
Since they said so, it must be true. Hughes thought that Lelakin's safety was beyond doubt, but he might be trapped somewhere, so Samkina and Malbus had to work together to find him.
Seeing that Xiu Si didn't ask any more questions.
The five cats looked at each other and quickly asked Malbus in the cat-headed demon group.
Amon: @Fifth brother of Malbus, how is fourth brother’s search for Lelakin going?
At this time, Malbus by the Emerald Lake raised his eyebrows and answered in the mental voice: "Still looking, why do you suddenly ask this?" Shouldn't you hope that Samikina will find Lelakin later?
Butis: "Father asked, maybe he felt something."
Malbus immediately sat up and asked in shock, "What did father feel?"
Beelzebub: "Just asking us if Lelagin is in trouble."
Malbus frowned, looked towards Emerald Lake, and observed, "There's nothing unusual on my side."
Bryce: "Didn't Fourth Brother say anything?"
Malbas paused and replied, "He seemed to say that He called Lelakin, but Lelakin did not respond. He said that his father had returned, but Lelakin did not respond either."
They couldn't believe that Lelakin didn't even react to the words "Father is back"?
Could it be that he has lost his memory?
Malbus: "He probably lost his memory. The fourth brother is solving a Rubik's Cube inside, and he wants to get Lelakin's permission to enter the realm."
Amon: "He still loves playing with the Rubik's Cube."
Rubik's Cube, a toy that his father gave to Lelakin and made for him. He learned it after playing with it for a few days, but Lelakin never could and always played with it in his hand. He thought Lelakin was too stupid and couldn't even turn the Rubik's Cube correctly. Later, he found out that Lelakin actually learned it a long time ago and always played with it in his hand because his father gave it to him.
He treasured all that the Father gave Him.
Lelakin is such a demon, with a delicate mind, often depressed, and no one knows what he is thinking all day long. However, once you ask him, his answer will always surprise you.
That unexpected yet reasonable answer makes you sigh that it is worthy of Him.
At this time, Butis said: "Brother, can't you open the domain directly? He is definitely capable of doing that."
Malbus shook his head: "Butis, you are too unloving. Forcibly opening the domain will cause harm to the domain master. You know that."
Butis didn't care. "For Lelakin, the news we brought to Him is more important, right? As for the way to be awakened, it's just a beating? It doesn't matter to me, and He certainly doesn't care either."
Malbus's mouth twitched slightly, "You know Fourth Brother's character. He will not use tough measures to wake Lelakin up."
Of course they knew. The fourth brother was a good-natured demon, an education maniac, who valued morality and character the most, and believed in conquering demons with virtue. Unless he was forced to do so, he would not resort to violence.
The fourth brother is very powerful, but like the third brother, he does not show his strength easily. Secondly, the fourth brother does not like violence, so he chose the peaceful way of cracking the Rubik's Cube.
They looked at each other, with different expressions.
Butis suggested: "How about this, if Fourth Brother is unwilling, then I will do it."
Malbus shook his head. "Butis, why are you joining in the fun? This is something that should be solved by the brothers. Don't you agree, @Amon?"
Amon thought to himself, what do you want me to do? I can't influence Samkina's thoughts.
He is the focus of fourth brother's education!
Back then, the fourth brother kept him in the library and gave him a strict education, determined to cultivate him into someone with correct values and good character.
He couldn't stand it anymore and ran away.
Which demon present here doesn’t know that Fourth Brother is a pervert?
Amon turned around and saw that, except for Butis and Beelzebub, all the key reformed elements in the eyes of his fourth brother were present, and each of them was labeled as a threat to humanity and a destroyer of the race.
No matter which of the three of them went, they would be caught by the fourth brother and given a strict lesson. Butis was a man who had forgotten the pain after his wounds had healed. He was just showing off his power verbally. If he really ran into the fourth brother, he would definitely turn around and run away.
However, it must be said that if Fourth Brother comes back after resolving the matter of Lelakin, they will definitely not be able to play freely around their father. They will definitely be controlled by Fourth Brother and severely disciplined.
Amon had a complicated look in his eyes. He wanted to help his father solve his troubles, but he was also a little worried that his fourth brother would arrest them as soon as he came back.
Seeing that Amon didn't reply, Malbus seemed to see through Amon's thoughts and laughed, "Amon, you can't escape that, just accept it."
Amon's face darkened, "Not even my fourth brother can stop me."
Malbus was not surprised by Amon's childishness. Rather, Amon was the most childish demon in the family, even more childish than Aini. At the same time, Amon was also the demon with the most flexible brain.
But then again, when Amon was first born he was actually a good demon, innocent, lively and cute.
Malbus thought, how come my brothers and sisters who were so cute when they were young became not cute as they grew up?
It’s definitely not a problem with the brothers’ education, right?
Malbus couldn't help but laugh heartily. In fact, he knew more or less the answer. The answer was of course because of his father's doting.
Children who grow up being spoiled always have inexplicable personalities.
Who can blame their father for having a good temper? Even if they did something wrong, he would not be willing to scold them.
The only time their father would be strict with them was when they did not value themselves and rushed around without regard for the danger to their lives.
When the creature's health bar reaches zero, it means death. If they are too reckless and take risks recklessly, causing their father to miss the opportunity and fail to withdraw them back to the system box in time, they will die.
That was the last thing my father wanted to see.
Malbus's eyes darkened, and he realized that he had thought too much, so he changed his words and said, "In that case, let's wait a little longer. Fourth Brother will definitely bring Lelakin out. Trust Fourth Brother, okay?"
The cat-headed demons paused, then all agreed.
No matter what, if Lelakin himself doesn't want to wake up, there's nothing they can do to force him.
And it feels like things aren’t that simple.
Amon thought, even if Lelakin had lost his memory, when he heard Samkina say that he had a father, he would have doubted it, right?
Why did He lock Himself in His realm as if He was very sure of something, and even refused to see Samikina?
There must be some reason behind this.
At this time, Bryce calculated the time and called Amon, Butis, and Beelzebub one by one.
"You three black history demons, isn't it time to do your homework? You've been procrastinating for so long, are you still going to finish rewriting history?"
The three demons were severely named and subconsciously wanted to say something, but what Bruce said was indeed right.
Father's system could restart at any time, so this was no time for them to dawdle.
Speed up your action!
After a while, Beelzebub left with Imbos, followed closely by Butis.
Amon did not leave immediately, but sat by the window and looked at the chaotic sky for a while.
After a few seconds, he seemed to be thinking of something, and the cat wagged its tail and slowly disappeared.
At this moment, the room finally became quiet.
The fat orange cat heaved a sigh of relief and met the eyes of the short-legged cat. "Look at the way they are. I must not learn from them in the future."
The little dwarf cat nodded. He didn't know who had caused it, but a few hairs appeared on his head.
It looks silly, but also cute. The fat orange cat walked over and combed his brother's hair with his paws.
"Saile, you are a good child, different from them."
The two cats are so different in size that when you compare them up close, they look inexplicably fairy-tale-like.
The shorthair cat raised his head, seemed a little hesitant, but still asked, "Is Brother Lelakin okay?"
Fat Orange knew that Sereos and Lelakin had a good relationship. Lelakin took good care of Sereos when they were young. Sereos was a good boy, so of course he would miss and worry about Lelakin.
Fat Orange said: "Lelagin doesn't need to worry too much. He is in his own domain. Nothing can happen to him. It is only a matter of time before his memory is restored."
The little cat nodded, lowered his eyes, then raised them again and looked at his father.
-
Zeus closed his eyes and immersed himself in the spiritual world, but gained nothing. As soon as he opened his eyes, he found that more than half of the children were missing.
Because I was used to it, I didn't ask any more questions.
Sometimes, he felt that there was a tacit understanding among them. Although they ran around, there would always be one or two of them staying by his side.
The fat orange boy said sensibly, "Father, we just asked the fifth brother, and he said that the fourteenth brother is fine. Let's go to the fourth brother."
“Is that so?”
Xiu Si believed them, "I know."
Around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, his restless mood gradually calmed down, and he picked up the book to read again.
If the two cats beside him happened to look up, they would see the name of the book - "On the Conversion of Matter and Energy".
There is also a book called "Introduction to the Periodicity of Magical Elements" on the cabinet next to Hughes.
It was clear that he was trying to understand the relationship between matter and energy.
That is to say, learn the knowledge that must be unlocked to create.
If you don't understand the nature of things, you can't use them.
This path sounds simple, but actually learning it is like taking a college physics class. It is profound and complicated. If you are not careful, your mind will wander into space and you will forget what you were thinking just now, so you must be very focused.
Magic, alchemy, and creation are a means, a technique. There must be something more essential before them, knowledge, and knowledge above knowledge.
Mastering meta-knowledge will be the most critical step to liberate thinking and open up imagination.
The more critical the place, the easier it is to get blocked.
Xius calmed his mind and told himself not to be anxious and to keep calm.
After about half an hour, he gained something from reading, but not much. His progress was very slow, and he wasn't even sure it was progress.
Suddenly a strong wind blew outside, causing the curtains to flap.
The temperature dropped a few degrees without anyone noticing, and bursts of voices could be faintly heard outside.
Without having to listen, Zeus could guess that they were probably discussing the God of Chaos.
The God of Chaos has surrounded the planet, something that has never happened before.
Once He descends, not only will humans be doomed, but the entire planet will be doomed. However, He has not made any moves so far, and is only approaching the planet very slowly.
His situation not only reminded Hughes of the little dark cloud.
Little Dark Cloud, the God of Curse, and the God of Chaos are all gods from other worlds, one is numbered 002 and the other is numbered 001.
He didn't know what golden finger he had opened, but he actually successfully read the original consciousness of the God of Curse. The situation was urgent at the time, so he had no choice but to do this, but now thinking about it, he found that this matter was too bizarre.
Rather, what was strange was not the event itself, but himself.
“How I did it.”
There was thought in his eyes, but no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't figure out what was going on.
If you want to do it, do it, and achieve it, it is as simple as that. If you insist on him explaining the reason or method, he doesn't know how to explain it.
In a sense, he has already mastered this craft, and when he reflects on it now, he still feels confused.
I always felt that at that moment, my hand seemed to have touched His consciousness.
Although consciousness is not material and does not exist in any real sense, he really felt that he touched it.
That feeling, like touching sea water?
No, you cannot catch the sea water, but you can catch consciousness.
He thought about it again and found that the term "soft-bodied creature in the deep sea" was more appropriate.
It is both solid and fluid, and also has a bit of a gaseous feel.
Xius looked at his hands and clenched them a few times in the air, as if recalling that feeling.
If he had some super powerful golden finger that could attack gods, maybe it could come in handy in times of crisis for humanity, he thought absentmindedly.
After a few minutes, he couldn't figure out anything and had no choice but to put it down.
He was a little tired, and his thoughts were a mess, so he decided to go out for a walk and think while he walked.
He decided to take action and took his children out for a walk.
The fat orange cat didn't go with them because he had to look after the big white cat.
After Hughes and the dwarf cat walked out, the fat orange cat walked to the big white cat's nest and took a closer look.
The big white cat's cat bed is several times larger than the others and is particularly eye-catching.
The third brother gets fatter and fatter as he sleeps more. The fat that grows is probably the stored magic power. This means that once he wakes up, he will be completely reborn and enter the first echelon of cosmic strength.
By then, dealing with the God of Chaos shouldn't be a problem, right?
The fat orange boy touched his chin and looked up at the sky.
-
Meanwhile, by the Emerald Lake, Malbus told Samikina about the situation.
Samkina said that He would solve the Rubik's Cube as soon as possible, and then the communication was cut off.
Malbus was worried, but he could only wait.
-
The hall of the Elf Palace.
The speed of the Rubik's Cube was obviously several times faster, and it caught fire when it was rubbed in the air, but it still took some time.
Samkina calmed down, took his time, and slowly increased his speed.
-
at the same time.
Lelakin stopped and stared at the black bronze door in front of him, with a hint of emotion in his eyes.
It seemed as if His most important things were placed inside.
-
Six o'clock in the afternoon, in the bookstore.
Hughes had come back from his walk and was putting his theory into practice.
He first attempted to transform a piece of iron into molten iron and then into iron atoms.
Material disassembly is a deconstructive action.
You may unconsciously use the power of Selie, but deconstruction is not the optimal solution.
One action can involve two powers.
Xiu Si looked at the iron in his hand that was constantly turning into water, and silently said in his heart, transformation, transformation...
-
There was silence in the Elf Palace, and nothing could shake Lelakin's heart.
However, the next second, a ripple suddenly appeared in his ethereal eyes.
