Chapter 159: Breaking Out of the Cocoon
Although the shell of the white cocoon is relatively hard, Zhen Jinli is not too worried that Si Yao will find out that she is not inside.
But just in case, Zhen Jinli set an alarm for herself to wake up before seven in the morning to ensure that she could return to the white cocoon before Si Yao got up.
In the morning, Zhen Jinli left the city as a human player, and then flew back into the white cocoon in stealth as a pseudo-NPC.
Si Yao had already woken up, but because Zhen Jinli's white cocoon was lying next to him, he couldn't help but stay in bed for a while longer just to keep her company.
Raising his hand and gently stroking the hard calloused body, Si Yao's tone was as gentle as if he was coaxing a child.
"You must be lonely staying in there alone?"
"There's still half a day left. You should be able to complete the transformation and emerge from the cocoon this afternoon."
"I'm looking forward to seeing you after you transform into an elf. You must be incredibly beautiful."
However, Si Yao was unable to accompany Zhen Jinli for long because Arthur's message came.
"My Lord, our insect army was planning to attack the city early this morning."
"But I don't know what damn method humans used. Our insect army is wandering around outside the city as if they are lost, but they can't find a way to get inside."
"Please, Lord, decide what we should do next?"
After listening to Arthur's report, Si Yao had no choice but to leave the room and go out to discuss countermeasures with other elves.
***
On the eleventh day of the game, Zhen Jinli was inside the cocoon, silently counting how long it would take for her to break out.
Because she didn't stay in the cocoon long enough, she definitely couldn't become a real elf.
But as time went on, Zhen Jinli couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
Only after Si Yao left did Zhen Jinli relax a little.
She planned to get out of the cocoon, wander outside in stealth, and familiarize herself with the terrain of the elves.
Unexpectedly, this time, because she stayed in the cocoon a little longer, the white silk threads had completely entangled her hands and feet.
If she tried to break free from the cocoon threads, she would inevitably hurt her skin.
Zhen Jinli hesitated for a moment and decided to peel off the silk threads on her body bit by bit.
It turns out that in order to truly "unravel the mystery", one needs great patience and carefulness.
If the sunlight outside hadn't been able to shine in, Zhen Jinli really felt that his eyes were going blind.
This is inside the cocoon, and she can't rashly activate the Goddess of Light card, otherwise it might alert the guards.
With the mentality of comforting himself that he was just killing time, Zhen Jinli finally peeled off all the cocoon silk on his body.
What remains is how to crack open this hard shell.
Zhen Jinli looked at his claws after he turned into an elf. They seemed quite sharp, but he wondered if they could successfully tear through the white cocoon in front of him.
She tried to grab forward with force, and the white cocoon in front of her seemed to have lost some threads as she rubbed it off.
Because there were so many silk threads in the white cocoon, Zhen Jinli would accidentally scratch those thin cocoon threads if her movements were a little bigger.
There were already several bloodstains on her snow-white arms, but they were all relatively small and insignificant.
Although Zhen Jinli felt a little pain, she had no intention of healing the wound.
Since this is a necessary wound to break out of the cocoon and become an elf, if she uses the healing power to heal herself, the process of her breaking out of the cocoon will seem a little unreal.
After paddling hard for a while, Zhen Jinli finally saw the light of hope.
The shell of the white cocoon became thinner and more transparent.
Finally, Zhen Jinli pushed forward with force, and her long, sharp nails pierced through the outer shell of the white cocoon and stretched out.
A pair of warm and strong hands held her small hands, and at the same time, a deep voice sounded from above her head.
"Ginny, let me pull you out."
The next moment, Zhen Jinli was pulled out of the white cocoon by Si Yao and fell into his arms.
Looking at the beautiful and dreamy butterfly wings behind Zhen Jinli, Si Yao's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
"I knew that you would be extremely beautiful after becoming an elf."
Zhen Jinli subconsciously looked at the wound on her arm, only to find that the wound on her arm had healed since she didn't know when.
Huh? She swore she hadn't used the healing goddess's power.
Zhen Jinli looked at Si Yao in front of him and suddenly realized.
"Will my wounds heal automatically in no time after I get hurt in the future?"
Si Yao nodded, raised his hand to help Zhen Jinli brush away the excess silk threads on her body, and smiled faintly.
"Well, as long as I'm here, no one can hurt you."
Zhen Jinli saw that it was a beautiful spring day outside and thought it was a good time to take Si Yao out to play in the suburbs and help him recover his memory.
She held Si Yao's hand, with a hint of coquettishness in her tone.
"Si Yao, I haven't played outside yet. Can you take me for a walk?"
As long as we can replicate Si Yao’s childhood memories on Earth, maybe he can remember something.
Si Yao looked at Zhen Jinli with doting eyes and spoke in a gentle tone.
"good."
Seeing that Si Yao was about to take Zhen Jinli out of the greenhouse palace, several elf guards also wanted to follow them.
Si Yao didn't want to be disturbed by others during his date with Zhen Jinli, so he waved his hand and asked them to leave.
"You don't have to follow."
The elven guards looked at each other and had to let the two of them go out alone.
Si Yao and Zhen Jinli were holding hands and flying freely in the jungle outside the city, chasing and playing, having a lot of fun.
In the evening, Zhen Jinli sat down by the river and asked Si Yao, "Si Yao, do you remember anything?"
Si Yao thought Zhen Jinli was asking him if he remembered every little detail of their time together, so he shook his head.
"No."
Worried that Zhen Jinli would feel disappointed, Si Yao quickly comforted her.
"The memories of the past aren't that important. As long as I'm still by your side now, isn't that enough?"
Not good at all.
Zhen Jinli complained silently in her heart.
The memories of the past are very important, you must remember them quickly, Si Yao.
Zhen Jinli deliberately caught some small animals and asked Si Yao if he could understand what they were saying.
Si Yao naturally understood what they said. He asked curiously, "Don't you understand what they are saying?"
Zhen Jinli shook her head and said, "Although I am also an elf now, I actually can't understand the language of other animals."
Even insects like bees and butterflies can basically only communicate and converse with the elves in simple ways.
Si Yao finally realized the difference between himself and other elves.
Could it be that he is the only one who can communicate with other small animals?
I'm a little late in catching bugs. Can I still ask for recommendation votes and monthly votes today?
