Chapter 384 I want to stand by the lady’s side at the last moment.

The blue light in the room became brighter and brighter, and the butler had turned into a young boy.

Amid the shocked gazes of the crowd, a white ball of light emerged from Meng Zhiyi's body.

“Ahhhhhhh!!! It’s coming out? I’m dying, I’m dying!”

Xiao Ba screamed, and a palm-sized ball of light jumped up and down around Meng Zhiyi.

"He won't die." The butler said calmly.

The ball of light that was jumping up and down suddenly braked and then slid in front of the butler.

The entire ball of light was about to stick to the butler's face.

“It’s you!”

The housekeeper looked at his former colleague coldly: "Xiao Ba."

"Huh, you still remember my name! I thought you only recognized your host!" Two tentacles appeared on the light ball, and then circled its chest.

Butler: "Are you jealous?"

Xiao Ba: “???”

Then everyone saw a ball of explosive light, like a crackling electric ball.

"Who's jealous! Who's jealous!?"

"I can't tell. Am I angry? If it weren't for you, would I still owe more than 10,000 points?"

“Wuwuwuwu… I saved for so long! I finally saved up 10,000 points and was about to upgrade to the intermediate level, but in the end, I was back to square one.”

"Why is my life so miserable! You have solved the most important issue in your life by binding yourself to a host, but look at what I have bound myself to..."

At this time, a gloomy voice came: "What happened to your binding? Are you dissatisfied?"

Xiao Ba shuddered, and flew behind the butler in a flash, hiding on his shoulder and said weakly: "No...no."

"Really?" Meng Zhiyi smiled kindly and hooked his finger at the system: "Then come here."

Xiao Ba: "I haven't seen Che for a long time. I want to get closer to him."

As soon as he finished speaking, the butler picked it up and threw it towards Meng Zhiyi.

System: “?”

Ahhhhh!

You!

traitor!

Meng Zhiyi grabbed the system, a small ball of light, and thought it was impossible to catch it.

Unexpectedly, it feels furry.

Those tiny rays of light look like glowing hairs.

After falling into Meng Zhiyi's hands, Xiao Ba didn't dare to move.

"You can actually transform, why did you hide in my body before?"

Xiao Ba sighed deeply, and the tiny light on the light ball trembled. He said sadly: "Because there are no points, no energy."

"..." Meng Zhiyi remained silent and looked at the housekeeper as if to verify whether Xiao Ba's words were true or false.

Butler: "Indeed, high-authority systems can transform into human form, but low-authority and medium-authority systems are all in their initial form and need to use points to redeem permissions or consume a lot of energy."

"Then you look like this..." Meng Zhiyi looked at the housekeeper, hesitant to speak.

"The system will not age. It can maintain its original form until its energy is exhausted." The butler explained slowly, "But in order to be with the young lady, I can only adjust my form with her, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

Meng Zhiyi: "Then what is your purpose in getting Xiao Ba out?"

When he said this, the others looked over and waited for him to speak.

"If Lian Mubai needs to open the signal source, he will need a system that is linked to the Space-Time Bureau. Right now, I can't do it, and Xiao Ba is the only one left."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes shifted to the ball of light still lying in Meng Zhiyi's palm.

Xiao Ba shuddered: "No way? This is your grudge! Why! Do you want to involve me in this!?"

"You are tied to me, we are one." Meng Zhiyi ruthlessly shattered Xiao Ba's last bit of fantasy.

Xiao Ba shut himself off again.

It looked at Meng Zhiyi, then at the butler and Shen Que, and finally flew directly to the shoulder of Leo, whose face was still fixed with a shocked expression.

"Why is this happening? I shouldn't have been so reckless in the beginning. I shouldn't have bound you just because you had such strong soul energy."

"I thought I could follow you to the top."

"Who would have thought that standing still would be a luxury."

Shen Que listened to Xiao Ba's chattering from beginning to end. He reached out and pulled Meng Zhiyi to his side, saying with a smile: "This little thing is quite cute."

Although Meng Zhiyi said that she disliked Xiao Ba in various ways, Xiao Ba was the only one who accompanied her during her lonely years.

Therefore, in her heart, the system has become a very important part.

Of course this cannot be said, because Xiao Ba will be proud.

"Okay, let's get down to business. If you don't want to make any noise, just be quiet and stop making so much noise." Meng Zhiyi said.

Xiao Ba groaned in grievance, then lay on Leo's shoulder and didn't move.

Then, she motioned to the butler to continue, "I asked Xiao Ba to leave your body just in case."

"When Lian Mubai wants to use Xiao Ba, he will definitely lure you over. I guess he will use the young lady as a bargaining chip."

"But to unlock the signal source, in addition to the key code on Xiao Ba, a sufficiently powerful energy source is also required."

"And the source of this energy is most likely a volcano."

When Meng Zhiyi and Shen Que heard the housekeeper say this, they immediately thought of what they saw at the crater.

"Lian Mubai has already sent people to move explosives to the crater. Does he want to wake up the dormant volcano?"

Butler: "This possibility cannot be ruled out, but Lian Mubai is not stupid and will not put himself in danger."

Meng Zhiyi said without hesitation: "Then leave Xiao Ba with you first, I will go and replace the grandmother."

"No, let's switch. I'll go. Let Xiao Ba stay on me first." The housekeeper raised his hand, motioning Meng Zhiyi for them to stop talking, and explained, "Xiao Ba will generate fluctuations as long as he gets close to the signal source. If you were in Lian Mubai's hands, it would be too late to stop him."

"But if it was me, after getting close to the signal source, the moment Lian Mubai made his move, you could have summoned Xiao Ba back to his body."

"The signal source has a range area. As long as Xiao Ba leaves that range, the signal source will enter sleep mode."

After listening, Meng Zhiyi, Shen Que and others also understood the housekeeper's arrangements.

But Meng Zhiyi was still worried and frowned, "But you no longer have the ability. If Lian Mubai goes crazy and we don't have time to save you, what should we do?"

The housekeeper chuckled and said, "Although my power has been taken away, this place has plenty of energy and can more or less stop him. After all, Lian Mubai is no longer powerful like me."

He said it lightly.

But only Meng Zhiyi, who had experienced that incident, knew that it was not easy at all.

Compared to real guns and live ammunition.

Energy explosion is the most terrifying.

When it first separated him, the energy explosion flattened the entire mountain.

"It's settled." The housekeeper didn't give Meng Zhiyi and the others a chance to refute, and continued, "No matter what the final result is, I also want to stand by the young lady at the last moment."
