Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Can you let me raise Mumu? ...
Wentai thought dully.
He seemed to have heard that a dragon from the Silver Dragon Clan had picked up a cub.
The little guy who rushed over was not even as tall as their knees. He was wearing an exquisite and cute plaid shirt, with a round and pretty face, big black eyes with a determined light, and black hair that trembled slightly, with two round little horns hidden in the fluffy hair.
Just a weak little thing.
Not worth watching any more.
Before Wingtech could continue, a bright light appeared before his eyes.
This was a situation that the battle-hardened dragon clan had never seen before.
He frowned and paused for a moment.
The light turned into a small lightsaber, like an illusory stream of light, and stabbed towards him firmly.
Before he really got close, he felt a sharp pain, not only from the place where the light was approaching, but also from his brain.
It feels like being pricked by a needle.
Everything happened very quickly.
Although the dragon clan, which is good at fighting, has different ranks and positions, as well as civilian and combat positions, in the final analysis, opportunities are fleeting in a fist-to-flesh fight.
Li Hua was already paying attention to his own cubs.
The moment he noticed Wentai looking up, he turned his body around, the wind rustled, and long legs came towards him. When Wentai paused, he kicked him in the neck.
The huge force caused Wentai to stagger, but the dragon's strong physique helped him to keep steady.
As the Blue Dragon's combatant, he also reacted quickly.
The syringe in his hand slipped out. The metal syringe was not the ordinary syringe used in the interstellar world. It was an exposed and open style.
In the end, the injection still brushed against the side of Li Hua's neck.
Li Hua also held Xiaolong in his arms with one hand to protect him.
Wentai shook a bit, fell down, and his strong body hit the small pillow that Xiao Limu was holding.
The little dragon cub ran a little fast, panting awkwardly, and when he was hugged, he naturally curled up in Li Hua's arms.
"Didn't I tell you to run?! Go to the airship, the automatic mode is already set, it's too dangerous here—"
Li Hua's heart was also pounding.
His mental power was not very aggressive, and he was not very good at fighting with others. When he released excess mental power, he did not fight like Li Ming and the others, let alone the life-threatening confrontation at this moment.
Damn it, isn’t this going to cost the lives of civilian staff?
At this time, the life of a civil servant is no longer a life, right?
The lamb just woke up:? ?
Who is this?
Why are you yelling at them?
"Uncle..."
He spoke in a baby voice and stretched out his little hand to look at the scratches on Li Hua's neck.
He wanted to touch it, but he didn't dare to.
Tears welled up in her clear big eyes.
lamb:?
'Uncle?'
ah?
Is this one of the...blue dragons?
The lamb looked at the silver hair and fell into deep thought and confusion.
It always has a bad feeling.
Is this really the knowledgeable, gentle and calm blue dragon in front of me?
Why does it feel that the blue-haired dragon lying over there in madness looks more like it?
Xiaolong already felt a little uncomfortable.
It is a feeling of physical fatigue.
But maybe his physical fitness has improved, so he feels much better than the last time he used magic.
“It hurts.”
Xiaolong searched for the words he had learned these days and tugged at his clothes.
"Uncle, it hurts."
Li Hua, like Li Ming, has a rather rebellious look, but appears more indifferent.
He was slightly stunned at this moment.
Xiaolong is still too young.
And I'm a little afraid of him, since he's only been here for a week or two.
The time they spent together was really short.
Why not run?
Why don't you leave this dangerous place as soon as possible?
Li Hua even felt a slight burning sensation at the wound.
It's just a very shallow cut.
Xiaolong looked at him anxiously, then at the small cut.
Finally, Li Hua seemed to compromise and held the little dragon cub in his arms.
"It's okay. It doesn't hurt."
He held the little guy and quickly controlled Wentai.
Fortunately, there was an emergency medicine box and some of the items he brought with him in the area leading to the escape zone.
If we ignore the side effects, Li Hua can use his expertise to prepare a potion that can temporarily relax the dragon's muscles and achieve this in a short period of time.
Wingtech was also temporarily controlled.
Xiaolong seemed to be frightened.
She kept clinging tightly to Li Hua's arms and refused to let go.
Li Hua was still holding the baby in her arms and didn't dare to get close to the strange injection, and the burning sensation in the wound became more and more intense.
He frowned and endured it, checking Li Ming's position again.
Li Ming came and went very quickly indeed, and since the starship stayed in place after the attack, Li Ming returned even faster. At this moment, he had already entered the intelligent communication area and did not need to connect to additional starship equipment.
I guess he'll be here soon.
Wentai seemed to have briefly regained some sanity. Lying on the ground, he looked at Li Hua.
"You look familiar—I have some impression of you—"
"I don't want you to be impressed."
Li Hua stood up holding Xiaolong and gave him a cold look.
Wentai watched the other party's cautious movements.
It seems that he finds it a little ridiculous.
The darkness that had been suppressed in his eyes reappeared.
He laughed out loud.
"It's all in vain—do you know what that is?"
Li Hua turned and looked at him.
"I think you've noticed it too. Is the wound still burning? Even if it's just scratched?"
Wentai lay on the ground with a cold expression.
"Aren't you curious why the other dragons on this starship didn't show up? This is contamination from the black hole. Once contaminated, they'll go out of control. They should all be in the emergency room trying to control their mental powers right now—enough is enough. This false balance is tiresome. There's nothing worth clinging to in the first place. Why not just undergo a complete and thorough evolution and see if it leads to destruction or a new beginning? Don't you think that's the right thing to do?"
Pollutants inside a black hole.
Li Hua's expression slowly changed.
But the dragon cub didn't understand.
The little guy hugged his uncle's neck and finally talked to the lamb, whom he hadn't communicated with for a long time.
"How have you been lately, little one? It seems the completion rate for achieving the goal has risen to 25%. My strength is not enough to support you throughout the journey. I will get reminders at the critical moment. Also, I have to point out that these planes of teleportation actually have certain defects."
Xiaolong was confused.
'defect? '
"We can't enter a perfect world, but the worlds we can choose from have been carefully screened. Parents in these worlds have the ability to prevent things from happening. For example, this interstellar plane has a black hole that can cause the inhabitants' mental powers to lose control, but as long as it is eliminated in time, it will basically not affect the normal progress of the world."
So the black mist is——
Bad things that affect their mental strength?
Li Mu blinked and tugged at the corner of Li Hua's clothes.
"The last time it was dormant, it was due to energy depletion and could not be awakened. After that, the lamb will sleep normally. If you have any questions, you can ask me. The lamb has detected that the dragon parent is on the way. After the dragon parent arrives, the lamb will return to the normal companionship mode of the plane."
'Li Mu, my name is Li Mu now.'
Xiaolong grabbed Li Hua's clothes tightly and pursed his lips slightly.
He leaned in the warm embrace, as if the coldness he once felt had been dispelled.
'I haven't said that yet, Lamb. Thank you.'
Serious, formal.
ah--
The little ball of light was originally jumping happily around the little dragon.
It looked at the little guy's well-fed face.
Time is too tight and there is no time to look at all the data in detail.
But everything seems to be going well.
The small ball of light flashed and hid in Xiaolong's hair.
"I hope the baby doesn't think I'm being too hasty." After all, Xiao Limu is its first host, and it still has a lot to prepare. The small ball of light flickered again, sincerely, "I hope the baby can have a happy life."
During this time, Xiaolong had been carried by Li Hua to the escape area.
Li Hua also dragged Wingtech with him.
His breathing was a little rapid when Xiaolong looked up.
The black fog surrounded them, becoming increasingly thick and ominous.
It's like rushing towards a final ending that has been witnessed by someone.
"You're fine, but you've been exposed to contaminants. I suggest you go to the control cabin in the medical room immediately, otherwise you might lose control."
Wentai's indifferent head was dragged across the threshold with a bang. In such a "humiliating" treatment, he remained strangely calm.
This is different from the crazy attitude of just now when he started fighting over a disagreement.
Li Hua was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Xiaolong had recovered a little from his shock at this moment, and he poked his little head out to look out from over his uncle's shoulder.
His big round eyes met Wingtai's eyes.
Wentai was unable to move, not only because of Li Hua's skillful and merciless kick before him, but also because of the clanging and tugged sound afterwards.
But that didn't stop him from looking at Xiaolong with confusion and curiosity.
"A dragon cub?"
Li Mu was startled by his sudden words, and shrank back like a small anemone. Then he slowly poked his head out curiously, only up to the height of his eyes, trying to cover up his mistake.
Wentai, who thought it was indifferent, was stunned for a moment.
At this moment, he could probably understand why these silver dragons, who only liked to fight or study, picked up this little cub.
It's really cute.
Then little Li Mu was carried down by his uncle and put into the entrance of the lifeboat.
"Oh?"
Xiaolong was stunned for a moment, tilted his head blankly, looked at the lifeboat, and then at his uncle.
Li Hua took a step back, lowered his head, his expression hidden in the shadows, and was about to press the close button.
Li Mu anxiously stretched out his little hands, asking for a hug.
"Uncle?"
Why close the door? Why lock up Mumu?
Xiaolong jumped out anxiously.
"Mumu, be good."
Li Hua paused.
"It's not safe outside. Mumu, can you wait inside? My uncle needs to go to the medical room. Your father will be back soon."
The ominous polluting force that affects mental power is now playing a real role, constantly pulling at the dragon clan's powerful brain mental power.
It's like a clear mountain spring, seemingly calm, but once you fall in, you will understand how deep and dangerous the bottom of the pool is.
At this moment, he was slowly falling, being pulled by the undercurrent in the water and dared not move. If he was not careful, he would be torn to pieces by the rapid undercurrent.
But in such danger, the young cub who had just tried to protect him stretched out his little hands, reached into the water, and tried to pull him out.
But no—
"You just said that everything is meaningless?"
Li Hua's voice was cold, but he looked at Wentai.
"That's not right."
At least he knows the meaning of his existence as an adult - to let the children who should be carefree continue to be carefree.
"These are contaminants brought out from the black hole. These can be destroyed, but direct contact will lead to a loss of mental control. If we suppress them quickly, we may be able to reduce the danger level."
The lamb's voice followed immediately.
'This is the rule of this world.'
The lamb didn't have time to continue - but with the lucky blessing of the main system, the little cub should not experience the separation of life and death.
'dead end? '
Xiaolong still doesn't quite understand what this means.
But he didn't like the word.
He naturally saw the increasingly thick black fog above his uncle's head.
"It will be the same as before, just like Mumu—"
Die little by little in numbness and discomfort?
Purification magic.
That's the nemesis of pollutants.
The little guy knew it when he performed it for the first time after coming into this world.
It’s just that the long-lasting and shadowy aftereffects still make Xiaolong a little afraid.
Li Hua gave the little guy a very gentle smile.
"Mumu, be good and wait for your dad in a while. I'll have a chance to fix your pillow for you when I have the chance, although it may be a little late. It doesn't matter if you don't understand. I've recorded it and you can learn to listen to it slowly later. I might need to sleep for a while."
The hand tried to push the little dragon in.
Gentle, firm, even if they don't have much time to spend together.
Nope—
They are all important - the whole world is important to Mu Mu.
Li Hua finally noticed Xiaolong's situation.
The little guy's right eye gradually brightened, and a complex and gorgeous pattern seemed to be engraved in his dark pupil. The next moment, Xiaolong hugged his arm, holding it soothingly and rubbing his cheek against it.
“It doesn’t hurt—”
Along with the tender voice of a baby, Xiaolong's inner turmoil was so strong that the purification magic vibrated out like ripples.
Xiaolong swayed and fell into Li Hua's arms, still looking up stubbornly, and his horns rubbed against his cheek.
"Mumu, be good. Uncle doesn't feel any pain."
What's this?
The tension and danger in my mind gradually dissipated.
Li Hua slowly opened his eyes, but he didn't notice Wen Tai's equally shocked and confused gaze behind him.
The lamb was also panicked for a moment, and quickly used his energy to protect the dragon.
Li Hua, holding Xiaolong in his arms, groaned in stimulation from the feeling. He felt tired and sleepy as if someone was gently soothing him. He closed his eyes involuntarily and became a little dazed.
What appeared before my eyes was not darkness, but another scene.
Li Hua seemed to be in a world he had never seen before.
A small multi-story house built with green rock, and a strange dragon flying by in the distance.
Where is this?
"One shot will make it feel better, baby. Be good. The sooner you get better, the sooner you can continue learning magic, okay?"
The gentle voice made Li Hua look away.
A person wearing strange white clothes sat in the courtyard, holding a struggling light golden dragon in his arms.
His little wings kept flapping, and he looked a bit like his own cub when he was nervous.
The little dragon's painful howling made the parents of the dragon family watching around very worried.
"Why do you still have a fever? Did you sneak out to play in the rain again last night? Mom has always told me that you are too young to ignore the influence of nature..."
Li Hua was not interested in this, or perhaps it was because interstellar dragons didn't have much feelings for cubs. If he hadn't spent some time with little Li Mu, he wouldn't have paid attention to a cub.
He only glanced at the light golden dragon for a moment longer before looking away.
The disease is very certain and is not as cute as his black dragon.
So, what's the situation now?
Was he having an illusory dream without any basis or reason?
Li Hua frowned, making sure that no one around him could see him. He could only wander around the courtyard aimlessly.
“Ah… Woo…”
The childish voice sounded familiar, and it made his heart tremble.
He turned his head and looked over.
In the corner of the courtyard, a little guy was hiding and flapping his wings gently.
It was a little black dragon.
Hidden in the dark, only the little tail is exposed in the sunlight, making it almost invisible.
The voice was not only familiar, but also childish and painful: "Awoo..."
"Mumu?"
There was no way Li Hua would mistake his own Xiaolong.
He took a few steps forward, squatted down, and passed his hand through Xiaolong.
Before he could be surprised by this situation, he found that Xiaolong was trembling slightly in pain.
A pair of black grape-like pupils opened, seemingly staring at him from the void, but observing the direction he was looking at carefully—
Li Hua turned his head.
Where he was looking, the light golden dragon was surrounded by everyone, and his brothers and sisters were jumping around him, laughing and playing. The person in white clothes took something like a syringe and gave the light golden dragon an injection.
"Hey—can't you see? He's sick too."
Li Hua stood up in confusion.
Another shallow hum was heard.
He looked down and saw the little dragon huddled in the corner, curled up obediently, holding its tail in its mouth, being obedient and sensible and not making a sound.
Go ahead!
Why do you have to hold on here by yourself?
Li Hua's personality is a bit irritable.
Is it because similar situations have occurred before and have not been taken seriously?
He squatted in front of Xiaolong and called out again and again.
"Mumu? Mumu."
He waited for the sun to set above his head, and Xiaolong quietly stood up and lay back in his little nest, which was treated differently from his brothers and sisters. When the sun rose the next day, he basked in the sun quietly and uncomfortably.
This sadness healed quietly on the third day.
The time was short, but Li Hua clenched his fists.
He looked at Xiaolong still huddled in the corner with his eyes wide open. The day before, when Xiaolong was still feeling bad, he accidentally passed by his brothers and sisters' territory and was ruthlessly driven away and bullied.
It was as if she understood the longing in his eyes at that moment - is there anyone who can like Mu Mu? Is there anyone who can love Mu Mu?
…
When Li Ming and the Blue Dragon Clan arrived and landed urgently, they found that it seemed as if warm golden snow was falling inside the starship.
Before they could be surprised and discover the changes in themselves.
Li Ming has quickly headed to the escape area.
"Mumu!"
The man kicked the door open.
Then he saw Li Hua kneeling on one knee, leaning over and holding Xiaolong in his arms. The little guy was grabbing his clothes with his eyes closed.
"Mumu?"
Li Hua opened his eyes and looked over.
What should I say about that look?
At least Li Ming has never seen it.
He hasn't come this way yet.
Then I heard Li Hua speak.
"elder brother."
Li Ming got goosebumps all over his body.
It's like seeing a ghost.
Li Hua had never called him brother in this tone before.
Sure enough, the next second——
Li Hua hid Xiaolong in his arms, as if trying to cover up his crime.
"Can you let me raise Mumu?"
Li Ming: ???
"ha?"
