Chapter 68
The young man simply stood quietly in the hall, yet he exerted unparalleled pressure on all living beings present.
Those cold, light-gold eyes scanned the entire audience with an oppressive gaze, like a legendary ancient beast that had slumbered for countless millennia, awakened by ignorant descendants...
No one dared to move, no one dared to make any sound.
Although the other person's figure was so thin, at this moment, even the heartless No. 6 instinctively remained silent.
It seems that only in this way can safety be guaranteed.
“Squeak! Squeak!”
Finally, the chirping of insects broke the silence.
The giant spider was the first to be unable to withstand the pressure. Driven by the fear in its heart, it could no longer hold on.
Although it could not remember the other party's specific appearance, it would always remember this terrifying pressure. Just by looking at it, its spirit body was seriously injured and was beaten back into its own body!
The tragic experience during the last bloody rain made it pull out its front legs from the metal door panel without any hesitation, and the spider silk that was originally heading towards No. 6 again broke directly.
The giant spider's huge body and astonishing flexibility allowed it to turn around and escape in one go.
With eight legs, the giant spider moves at an astonishing speed. So far, no one has been able to catch up with it when it wants to escape, not even human aircraft.
However, the young man did not chase it.
He just tilted his head slightly and looked at the fleeing giant spider through the doorway with indifference.
In the blink of an eye, the giant spider had arrived at the gate of the nursery. Just as it was about to climb the metal door and quickly escape from this terrible place—
The young man's eyes narrowed slightly.
The whistling wind in the air suddenly turned into a series of downward sharp blades. The giant spider, which was extremely fast, had no time to dodge and was directly hit head-on by the wind blades.
Before it could even utter a scream, its body was cut into pieces and fell from mid-air onto the frost-covered ground. A dark green liquid flowed out of it, which was quickly frozen into ice by the blood-colored frost flowers.
The red flame tiger near the cave entrance and the little deer Jiao lying on its back watched this scene happen.
The Red Flame Tiger, which had already shrunk its head, was so frightened that it fell directly to the ground, trembling, and no longer dared to take a step out of the doorway.
The little deer Jiao, who was lying on its back, couldn't help but grab the red flame tiger's hair and swallowed hard.
The little boy turned his head stiffly and looked at the black-haired young man who suddenly appeared in the hall, his doe eyes full of disbelief.
He only felt that the angry roar just now was familiar, and now... looking at the young man's handsome face, Xiaolu Jiao finally realized a fact -
This truly is a keeper!
He really gave him potato chips, guided him to control the raging power of ice and snow, and played beautiful flute for them...that breeder who was thin and weak in his eyes and might not pass the probation period!
At this moment, his beautiful eyes had turned into light golden, slightly narrowed, exuding an extremely dangerous aura. As if noticing his gaze, the young man who was originally looking at the doorway shifted his gaze slightly.
Their eyes met.
The little white deer's heart skipped a beat, and he lowered his head in panic, closing his eyes in fear.
The trembling little red flame tiger, upon noticing the young man looking towards it, immediately covered its head with its two front paws - not to mention the ferocity of the red mist face it had just faced, it didn't even dare to have the consciousness to resist.
The other cubs didn't see the miserable state of the giant spider, but their instinctive fear still prevented them from making any sound.
Number Five, who was not far from the Red Flame Tiger, hugged the disc robot tightly in his arms and covered its vocal holes, fearing that it would suddenly make a sound.
In the whole audience, only the red-faced man recovered after a moment of frightened silence.
The giant spider died quietly.
This handsome young man who suddenly appeared was terrifyingly strong.
But what does this have to do with it? Its true form isn't here. Even if this incarnation is shattered, it won't cause much damage to it. On the contrary...
The face hiding in the red mist looked cautiously at the human standing quietly in the center of the hall. He looked very harmless, but the aura he exuded was stronger than any monster the red mist face had ever encountered.
When did such a powerful being appear in this human base? If he was truly human, then it would probably no longer be able to capture these beast-blooded cubs.
Red Mist Face naturally didn't want to give up just like that.
It had been dormant in Base 24 for a long time, and finally found the breakthrough point No. 5. Today is a day of harvest. How could it be willing to fail at this moment?
Finally, greed and the anticipation of loss made the Red Mist Face speak again. He tentatively asked, "Who are you?"
He had been observing this human base for so long and had never discovered the other party's existence.
At the same time, the whispers and laughter that had been silenced around them began to sound again, and in an instant, they reached the maximum level that the red mist face could release.
He had to test this young man's strength. If he was truly unbeatable, he would have no choice but to grit his teeth and abandon this base...
However, the Red Mist Face did not know how serious a provocation its unrepentant behavior was to the person who had just been awakened.
The black-haired young man listened to the muttering and laughter that filled the surroundings. Almost in an instant, his already dark face became even more ferocious and terrifying.
"It turns out to be you!"
He uttered these four words almost word by word.
The pressure that was originally released indiscriminately, in an instant, all rushed towards the red mist face.
The face in the red mist regretted it almost the moment it released its superpowers. It could only be thankful that because of the power of rules that enveloped the human base, its body could not enter.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have to choose to cooperate with the giant spider when the original plan failed - although the giant spider couldn't get in, it had the power to destroy buildings and could release spider silk to tie people up.
Too bad that idiot is dead now.
However, the next moment, Red Mist Face no longer had the energy to sympathize with others, because—
The black-haired young man did not kill the giant spider by simply breaking up its incarnation, but...
"A secretive person!"
The young man said this angrily, then stretched out his hand and the painting that had fallen in the corner flew over and was spread out in front of him.
The red mist face finally began to panic.
It opened its mouth wide and pounced towards the black-haired young man.
However, the young man just glanced at it coldly, then reached out to the painting full of disorder and ominous atmosphere, and finally the hand actually reached directly into it.
As the cubs stared in shock and fear, he grabbed a black shadow emitting a red glow and, with just one hand, dragged the struggling shadow out of the painting.
The red mist face floating in the air and rushing towards him disappeared in the middle of the attack.
"No! This is impossible!"
The black shadow caught in the young man's hand was struggling in panic. It had no fixed shape, but rather looked like a ball of slippery mud. Because it had no fixed form, it had never been caught by humans or other monsters.
However, the young man held it tightly, and no matter how it changed its posture, it had no chance of breaking free.
"The human base has its own rules and regulations. There's no way you can get me in! It's impossible!"
But such arguments soon turned into painful wails.
The black-haired young man had cold eyes and didn't care about the black shadow's pain at all. He grabbed the black shadow with both hands and squeezed the black shadow between his palms again and again like kneading dough.
"What I hate most is when someone comes to wake me up while I'm sleeping!"
In this venting squeeze, the black shadow's wails filled the entire hall of the nursery. No matter how it begged for mercy or apologized, it was only treated more brutally and violently.
The cubs in the hall were all terrified. Even the little Zhengxing, who was hiding in the corner of the corridor and secretly poking his head towards this side, shrank back in fear.
Not to mention the Red Flame Tiger and the Little White Deer, their panic had reached its peak.
He could obviously kill the black shadow directly, just like he did with the giant spider just now, and he might not even need to do it himself, but the black-haired young man chose to torture the black shadow bit by bit in this way to vent his anger.
So scary...
The breeder was really mad!
Number Six was still standing stupidly at the entrance of the corridor, with the hair on his tail standing on end. He vaguely remembered... the breeder seemed to have asked him to be quiet?
He didn't take it seriously then, but now...
So scary, so scary!
Number Six couldn't help but hug the person next to him - the little wolf cub who had just climbed down from the floating cart was suddenly hugged, but did not push him away.
He was also shocked.
In his impression, the keeper has always been gentle and weak and needs his protection. Although he can play the flute beautifully, has delicious potato chips, and even gave them names, he looks really weak!
But……
Seeing the young man gritting his teeth and pressing the black shadow violently, squeezing it from a large lump into a ball, little Langze couldn't help but close his arms and hugged No. 6.
The two cubs who usually don't get along with each other are now hugging each other and shivering.
Finally, after rolling the black shadow into a ball, the wailing sound weakened, and Su Ci's movements also stopped.
The young man stared at the black ball floating in his palm with cold golden eyes. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a ball of white light filled with purifying aura appeared from his palm.
The black shadow, which had been silent, screamed again under the blessing of the purification power.
The screams were even more shrill than before, and the cubs were so scared that they covered their ears. No. 6 and Xiao Langze hugged each other tighter, as if only in this way could they get a little sense of security.
In the purifying light ball, the black shadow turned into green smoke and continued to dissipate with a crackling sound.
When the last ray of black disappeared from Su Ci's palm, he gathered all his purifying power. However, his palm was not empty.
I saw that the black ball had turned into a small transparent ball of light.
Su Ci threw the small ball of light casually, and the ball flew into the air. When it reached the top, a series of white and transparent spirits fell out of the ball of light.
The transparent ball of light became smaller and smaller until the last spirit left and the small ball of light completely dissipated. The red mist that had invaded the nursery seemed to have met its nemesis and escaped from the doorway one after another.
In the hall of the nursery, dozens of white and transparent spirits of all sizes were suspended in the air. Except for Xiao Zhengxing who could vaguely perceive them, the other cubs could not see these spirits.
Most of these spirits were human, with only two or three being animals. The human spirits bowed to Su Ci one after another, and the animals also expressed their gratitude in their own way.
Su Ci looked at these spirits indifferently, and saw that after expressing their gratitude, they turned into tiny points of light with feelings of either piety or relief and dissipated in the air.
These light spots did not disappear immediately, but began to fall after drifting away.
They passed through the thick metal floor of the nursery and went all the way down until they touched real soil. Then they disappeared into the earth, as if returning to their mother's arms and finally finding rest.
The blood-red resentment that had originally invaded the soil either dissipated directly or escaped in all directions when it touched these light spots, allowing the land under the nursery to return to normal soil.
In the hall, all the strange phenomena disappeared.
Su Ci, who had calmed down a little, took in all the changes that had just taken place, but... he didn't want to explore what was going on for the time being.
After he dealt with the culprit, he turned his gaze to the cubs who were still staying where they were.
The young man's eyes were still light golden, which made his already handsome features look even more ethereal, but also colder. Fortunately, after venting his anger just now, the ferocity on his face had visibly faded.
He scanned all the cubs one by one, and every cub that noticed his gaze lowered its head unconsciously, not daring to look him in the eye.
"Still arguing?" he asked coldly.
The six cubs, including the little Zhengxing who was huddled in the corridor, shook their heads in unison.
Number 5, who was sitting on the ground, shook his head like a rattle, not only covering the mouth of 4583, but also covering his own mouth with his other hand.
Seeing the shadow being killed with her own eyes - she was sure that the shadow was killed, but she did not feel sad.
On the contrary, after the black shadow dissipated, No. 5 felt that her mind seemed to be much clearer, and she also realized that the voice that had been guiding her had no intention of helping her at all.
Its real purpose is to eat the cubs with animal blood.
It can eat the other cubs in the nursery, so how can we guarantee that after rescuing her brother, it will not eat her and her brother as well?
Although he was very worried about his brother, looking at the world outside the doorway covered with blood-red frost, even though he was young, No. 5 knew that now was not a good time to go out.
If she wants to save her brother again, she has to wait until the weather gets better, otherwise she might freeze to death as soon as she goes out.
At this time, she heard the young man say again: "Then go back to your room and sleep."
The voice was cold and lacked any tone, but it made the cubs feel relieved.
No child said no, and no one wanted to stay there any longer.
Number 6 and Number 8, who were standing at the entrance of the corridor, came to their senses and found that they were hugging the person they hated the most. They were about to curse when they suddenly realized something. They both shut their mouths and looked towards the hall at the same time.
The young man tilted his face slightly, staring at them with cold golden eyes.
The two cubs showed unprecedented tacit understanding.
They raised their hands at the same time and covered each other's mouths.
After looking at each other and making eye contact, they let go of each other at the same time, and then separated carefully, not daring to make any noise.
Little Langze tiptoed to the corridor and saw little Zhengxing huddled in the corner. He hurried over and pulled him up.
Until this moment, he didn't dare to speak, and only mouthed silently: "Go back to the room."
He looked back and saw the little white deer being carried by the red flame tiger, moving step by step towards the corridor. As for the stinky monkey number six, it had already run up the stairs by itself.
Little Langze looked at the approaching Scarlet Flame Tiger. This was the first time he had seen Number Two in its complete beast form, but...
It's so strange. Even when No. 2 was half-beast, he was very fierce. But now that he has completely transformed into a red flame tiger, why does he look like a big cat?
Is he still sane?
Little Langze was confused and was about to ask when little Zhengxing next to him stood on tiptoe and covered his mouth with his hand.
I almost forgot, I can’t talk now!
Otherwise, if we disturb the breeder, he might get mad again!
Although the keeper who got angry after being woken up was very strong and his light golden eyes were very cool, for some reason, the little wolf cub who always admired the strong hoped that the keeper would change back to normal as soon as possible.
He was even a little worried. What if the breeder could never change back? Little Langze came to the corner again and looked towards the hall.
The hall was in a mess, and the cold wind kept blowing in from the door. The heater worked desperately, but it could only slightly offset some of the cold.
At this moment, apart from the young man, the only person left in the hall was Number Five, who was holding the disc robot and slowly moving towards this side.
It can be seen that the little girl is very anxious, but her physical condition is not very good to begin with. After going through all the trouble tonight, and having to hold a disc robot weighing more than ten or twenty pounds, it is naturally impossible for her to walk fast.
"Good boy, put me down. 4583 can walk on his own."
The sudden sound of the disc robot startled Number Five. She was already panicking, and this frightened her so much that she lost her strength and the disc robot slipped from her hand.
If I keep hitting it like this, 4583 will break again! Even if it doesn't break, it will make the breeder angry!
Number Five burst into tears.
However, the tragedy she imagined did not happen. When the disc robot was about to touch the floor, it suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Number Five was stunned. Just as he was about to hug the disc robot, he saw 4583 suddenly fly up.
She looked up and saw the breeder stretching out his hand. The disc robot flew towards him and finally landed in his palm. The metal disc weighing more than ten or twenty pounds was held in his hand as light as a feather.
Su Ci weighed the disc robot in his hand, his eyes flashed slightly, and he suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of the corridor.
Little Zhengxing, who was hiding behind the little wolf cub, stiffened his body. His two little ears that had been hidden suddenly popped out again and trembled nervously twice.
Fortunately, nothing bad happened.
Su Ci retracted his gaze and looked at the little girl who wanted to come over to take back 4583 but hesitated and did not dare to step forward. He let go of her hand and the disc robot flew back.
The little girl looked at the robot flying back with joy, and quickly stretched out her little hands to hug it.
The next moment after she hugged the robot, No. 5 looked up again and was surprised to find that she was back in the room. Not only her, but all the other cubs in the nursery, except A Yan, returned to their respective rooms in the blink of an eye.
Even the tall Red Flame Tiger was sent back to room number two.
What a magical power!
All the children were amazed and shocked by this cool skill.
However, the next moment, when they felt the terrible pressure again, none of the cubs dared to hesitate. They all climbed onto their own beds very consciously and pulled the quilt to cover themselves.
Number Two's small bed was not big enough to accommodate him after he had completely transformed into a beast, so the Red Flame Tiger had no choice but to lie on the ground, while stretching out its tail to wrap the quilt on the bed and cover itself with it, as if to show that it was sleeping.
When all the cubs lay down, a cold voice sounded in their ears at the same time.
"Sleep quietly, understand?"
I understand! The cubs nodded rapidly, closing their eyes one after another. Some even pulled the quilt over their heads.
Just like that, the noisy nursery miraculously returned to silence within just a dozen minutes.
After making sure that all the cubs remained quiet, Su Ci withdrew his spiritual consciousness, raised his eyelashes slightly, and looked at the metal door that was scarred by the giant spider.
“Huff, huff, huff—”
Cold wind blew in from the doorway.
Su Ci flashed to the metal door, raised his hand and pressed it, and a faint light appeared under his palm.
As the light moved, the curled metal around the scar on the door slowly retracted, and the door opening that was melted by the red flames gradually recovered.
When Su Ci withdrew his hand, all the scratches on the metal door had been repaired. Except that the metal on the door opening was slightly thinner than the surrounding area, it looked no different from the original one.
Luo Shengfei, who had fainted nearby and had been ignored, finally groaned at this moment and seemed to be about to wake up.
Su Ci lowered his eyes and glanced at him.
Luo Shengfei, who had already opened his eyes a little, closed them again and fell asleep.
Finally, the world was quiet.
Su Ci turned back with satisfaction, looked towards the distance, and called out, "A Yan."
When the wolf cubs went downstairs, A Yan ran back to the dormitory. He was originally planning to use a gentler method to wake up the breeder, but before he could finish the barbecue, the noise downstairs woke the breeder up.
Then, everything that just happened happened.
A Yan didn't dare to stop him and stayed quietly beside Su Ci, waiting for him to vent all his anger.
At this time, he heard the young man calling him, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief and flashed to the breeder.
Su Ci bent down and picked him up. His figure disappeared and he went straight back to the bedroom. He didn't say anything and just lay down on the bed.
He held A Yan in his arms and continued to sleep peacefully.
As for the other cubs in the nursery, whether they can sleep tonight is none of his business.
