Chapter 97 IF Line
"Big guy, you have seven legs and you still can't stand still?"
"Hey, normal people only have two, and you already have five more."
Lins caught the big spider that suddenly fell forward and then straightened it up.
——Luckily, his body retained some data from his time as a sentry, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to catch a three-meter-tall guy falling towards him.
Ashley blinked twice slowly.
"Shall I tie a branch for you to use as a makeshift?" Lins asked.
Ashley didn't know whether the emotion welling up in her heart was relief or disappointment.
—Lins seemed not to notice the gentle kiss.
He might have thought his lips had accidentally brushed against hers when he fell.
Ashley saw Lins really start to use the branch to gesture at his wound, and unconsciously curled up the remaining leg to his abdomen.
He didn't want Lins to see his wound.
"Don't want to?" Lins raised his eyebrows.
He saw the big spider in front of him move its remaining seven legs and rotate its round abdomen to prevent him from seeing the remaining limb.
Lins has come into contact with many wounded patients, and many soldiers face amputation on the battlefield.
They usually avoid talking about their disabilities, and this is especially true for sentinels who are already quite physically fit.
"Didn't we agree that if it doesn't grow out, I'll make you a metal leg? How about silver? You're originally black, and silver would be really cool."
Lins touched his chin and thought about it, and felt that his idea was quite good.
"Tsk, you just have to find the right coating, otherwise if the reflection is too strong, it will be easily noticed."
As Lins spoke, he saw the tall spider lower its scarlet eyes.
【good. 】
Lins smiled.
"Now that we've settled this, let's talk about what happened just now—why did you kiss me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the big spider in front of him quickly disappear from the spot.
The shock had left several deep holes in the hard legs.
Lins raised his eyebrows. It seemed that Ashley had recovered a lot.
The loss of a leg did not stop him from running away.
By evening, Lins still hadn't seen Ashley.
After an afternoon of leisure, Lins caught a rabbit.
But rabbit meat has little fat.
And he didn't have any seasoning.
Tsk, it seems like I really need to go down the mountain to buy some goods.
Lins finally decided to let the frightened rabbit go.
It's a bit gray, but it feels pretty good.
He rubbed its plump butt with an expressionless face. It was a pity that it was a bit hot in the summer, otherwise he could have played with it for a while longer.
Then, Lins discovered an interesting place.
Rabbit's tail.
It's so round and looks so short, but it can actually be stretched!
The rabbit's tail is actually long and narrow!
The poor rabbit didn't know what sin he had committed and trembled in Lins's hands.
Until a more terrifying breath came.
The hard legs dug into the ground, and the scent of a predator filled the air.
The gray rabbit was so frightened that it completely collapsed, its four legs stretched out stiffly, its eyes rolled back, and it fainted.
Lins looked up and saw Ashley, who had disappeared for a day, appear in front of him.
Hanging from his hand was a spider silk package containing a lot of food.
He looked down at Lins, his narrow, crimson eyes examining him.
Then he threw the bag of food to Lins.
Lins raised an eyebrow and slowly unraveled the spider web.
- Hazelnuts, acorns, potatoes, unknown tuberous plants, green and yellow fruits, strange-shaped mushrooms, and a handful of berries wrapped in broad leaves.
A full bag.
Lins took out a red-capped mushroom with white spots. It looked like it would send someone to the hospital if eaten. He looked at Ashley and said, "Ashley, are you retaliating after being humiliated and angry? Are you planning to poison me?"
"Can."
This mushroom is edible. Ashley wandered in the mountains for a long time.
"Got it right?" Lins raised his eyebrows even higher, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and looked at the tall female insect leisurely.
"eat."
Ashley added, her voice stiff.
He really rarely speaks.
——No one will communicate with him.
"Hey, are you planning to use force?"
Lins' tone was mean.
Ashley didn't know how to explain. His poor language couldn't prove himself, and he was worried that Lins wouldn't believe him, so he simply hollowed out a stone in front of him and made it into the shape of a pot.
His fingers still retained their human form, but they were incredibly powerful, and he grabbed the stone as if he were picking up a piece of tofu.
He put the stone pot aside, and Lins reached out his finger to touch the inside of the stone pot.
Tsk, it's smooth.
The Zerg should not be underestimated.
Ashley had processed all the ingredients before he came back, and he also brought back a few buckets of water - he cut a tree of suitable size in half, then chopped it into several sections, and then hollowed out the middle, leaving a certain thickness at the bottom, and the buckets were ready.
He tore the mushrooms into small pieces, placed them in the middle of the stone pot, and poured in clean water after frying them until the aroma came out.
"Meat?" Ashley pointed at the rabbit still lying in Lins' arms.
【Hate. 】
Take it away.
Lins sensed Ashley's emotions with incredible accuracy.
He seemed to have considerable hostility towards the gray rabbit.
【It can’t become that small.】
Lins burst out laughing, and Ashley looked at him in confusion.
After his spiritual sea went berserk, his memory often became fragmented, and he could no longer remember the time when Lins connected his spiritual sea.
"Forget it, I won't eat it." Lins picked up the gray rabbit by its ears and threw it out. "It's too hot to hold it in the hot summer."
I am cold.
"It's better to hold the little spider." Lins looked at the big spider in front of him with a smile, expressing his nostalgia for the little spider as big as a steering wheel.
The size is just right, and it feels cool when I hold it in my arms.
He clearly saw all the red marks on Ashley's face tremble.
"Can I touch you? I'm so hot." Lins waved his hands in front of him in a serious manner.
——But in fact, his body is also a Zerg.
To be precise, it's the spider clan.
It was a guy with a similarly low temperature. Especially now that the sun had long since disappeared, the temperature in the forest was quite pleasant.
Ashley glanced at him, then turned around and faced away from him.
Lins could only say that he was pleasantly surprised.
He reached out and touched the beautiful patterns on the back of the spotted spider. These patterns seemed to come alive and began to grow.
"Huh?" Lins curiously followed the direction of the pattern. The next moment, the spider's abdomen in his hand trembled violently and it jumped more than ten meters away.
The spotted spider, startled by its own subconscious action, turned its head away and didn't look at him.
After a long while, until the mushroom soup was cooked, he slowly walked back.
"Sorry, can't I touch it?" Lins said softly.
"Can."
【you can. 】
It's itchy.
It's not even an itch, it's a trembling, as if the soul is about to be sacrificed.
But Ashley found it difficult to describe the throbbing and numbness. As Lins said, his vocabulary was too limited.
"Are you uncomfortable?" Lins asked again.
Ashley shook her head honestly.
"That...comfortable?"
Ashley froze.
He wouldn't lie.
That is indeed very comfortable.
If Lins were to describe it, it would be awesome.
But Ashley didn't know the word. He didn't know what the word "shuang" meant.
【I’m going to die.】
"It feels so good that I'm dying?" Lins raised his eyebrows. How could touching a pattern be so pleasurable?
Ashley froze again and looked at Lins in disbelief.
"Ah, don't you know yet?" Lins spread his hands innocently, "We are 100% compatible. Most of the time, I can hear what's in your heart."
"No, I didn't hear it."
"It is to enter your spiritual sea."
【Shock】
【panic】
Unbelievable
Lins clearly smelled the information contained in these pheromones.
"Oh, one more thing." Lins scooped up a bowl of soup, blew it cool, and took a sip. He had a typical cat tongue and was very afraid of heat. "Your pheromone vocabulary is much larger than your language."
"Mm, it's really delicious." Lins praised, then glanced at Ashley who was motionless, "Hurry up and drink it, you are not trying to poison me, are you?"
“…”
The stiff big spider was forced to drink a sip of the soup he cooked.
It wasn't until Lins showed off all the mushrooms that Ashley came to his senses.
【Know everything?】
"Not really, more or less," Lins continued. "You were hiding under the tree before, aren't you surprised that I was able to find you right away?"
“…”
【Not recovered yet.】
At that time, Ashley's mind was still in turmoil and there was little he could think about.
"Your current situation, uh, isn't much better." Lins said again.
He looked at Ashley's eyes, which suddenly widened.
"Stupid little Spider."
He reached out and patted his head.
"You've grown so big in vain."
——
"Is it really impossible to grow back?"
Lins sighed regretfully.
Ashley was able to regain his human form, and Lins took him to the black market.
There are all kinds of people here, but as long as you have money, you can buy anything.
The doctors here never ask for information about their patients.
The female doctor sitting in front of Lins pushed his glasses, and he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
——The insect that came to see the doctor had very obvious insect species characteristics.
A powerful spider.
During this period, if we were to ask which race of insects you should avoid provoking, it would undoubtedly be the spider race.
——Recently, the proportion of them suddenly going berserk has been very high. I wonder if it is affected by the [Death God].
For female insects, as long as their hearts and brains are not damaged, their lives are safe.
Most organs can be regenerated by them, but wings are more difficult.
And this spider has obviously been modified.
The doctor's own origins were not clean, and it was obvious at a glance that most of his legs were the result of regeneration - this was definitely a Zerg that had undergone illegal modification.
But the patient refused his treatment.
"It's okay. If it doesn't grow, I'll make you a metal walking leg."
Lins reached out and took the hand of Ashley, who had transformed into a human form. He silently squeezed his palm as a comfort.
Fortunately, spiders have eight legs, and the loss of one did not cause Ashley to be missing limbs after he became a human.
Ashley nodded obediently.
【want to. 】
"I'll make you the coolest walking leg. You'll be prettier than any little spider."
"Um."
The doctor shrugged until the two figures disappeared.
"What are you doing? If you want a love bug to be your walking leg, just say so directly. Seriously."
He shook his head.
I don’t understand what these people are thinking all day long. Can the fake ones be as good as the original ones?
However, he had never seen such a sweet relationship between two female lovers.
——
Ashley finally has new walking legs.
Lins made it just for him out of special metal.
Normally, it is a very bright silver.
During formal combat, it will turn into an inconspicuous black.
"I made some modifications when I made it." Lins laughed maliciously. "You'll understand when you use it later."
"Definitely better than your old walking legs."
Lins patted his chest and made a promise.
Ashley still hasn't figured out what this new feature is, but he's adjusting well to the new leg.
He had seen his current atavistic appearance on the water surface.
The legs are long and large, seven of them are black and one is silver.
That silver leg is the first leg in his right front, so it is particularly conspicuous.
Ashley was satisfied.
"What are you looking at?"
Lins suddenly broke out of the water, and his appearance shattered Ashley's reflection on the water, and then it recovered.
"Are you looking in the mirror, little Spider?" Lins raised one corner of his mouth, and a small dimple appeared on his cheek. "You really love beauty."
Ashley didn't answer, he just stared at Lins in the water.
Then he slowly opened his remaining six eyes.
How could Lins miss this opportunity? He immediately grabbed Ashley's feet and pulled him into the water.
With a "crash" sound.
Water splashed everywhere.
Ashley also appeared in the water, and Lins had wrapped his legs around his waist and put his arms around his neck neatly.
Pull him close.
"Wow, I haven't seen eight eyes in a while."
Lins smiled and reached out his hand to touch it gently.
"What are you looking at, Ashley?"
He already knew the effect of having eight eyes open at the same time.
Although this ability cannot even be called prophecy.
Just seeing a fragment of a million possible futures.
Then, Lins felt a gentle tug in Ashley's cheek muscles.
——He laughed.
"What good things did you see that make you so happy?" Lins also laughed.
Ashley's crimson eyes looked at him, then slowly closed.
He slowly moved his lips closer.
Lins laughed, then bit his lower lip and ground it gently with his pointed fangs.
"Hurry up and tell me."
You are mine.
He heard Ashley's frantic heartbeat.
"What did you see?" Lins asked.
You and me.
Ashley answered in her heart.
In the clip we just saw, Big Spider and Lins were standing together.
They are all a bit old.
The Zerg's prime years are very long, and by the time they all look old, it means that a very long time has passed.
And that big spider has a silver leg.
—That’s not the Ashley from the other fragments.
——That’s him.
——Just him.
They grew old together.
