But perhaps because he came into contact with his former teammates, Yu Chengzhou and Zhou Xun, Qian Yuan began to uncontrollably recall this memory that he had buried deep in his heart.
Once the cub falls asleep, it will be as if he were there, allowing him to become Qianyuan again and again, sharing joys and sorrows and advancing and retreating side by side with his teammates.
"Waaah..."
Having memories is equivalent to having more complex obsessions and emotions, which is not actually a good thing for a cub's special and fragile body.
But longing, like weeds, once it sprouts, will continue to grow wildly.
The cub curled up, a tiny ball constantly murmuring and struggling, calling out the names of his former teammates who had disappeared.
The father thought the baby's illness was recurring, so he quickly and skillfully picked up the baby and comforted him. But in reality, he was also a little flustered, his arms and legs waiting helplessly, as if he had returned to the time when he first learned to breastfeed the baby, clumsy and awkward.
Perhaps no matter how many more headaches he has to go through, the father will just keep going through the process of protecting his cubs over and over again. Even if he feels helpless and powerless, he will do it for his cubs a thousand times over, learning how to become a family member who understands his cubs better.
It doesn't necessarily have to be blood-related. Even if someone is a monster, a father is still a father.
A father can be a member of his offspring's family, whether it's "Dad," "Mom," other siblings, or even a pet dog... as long as the offspring needs him, the father will be everything.
The father embraced the cub, and many arms emerged, melting into the walls, the soil, and the shadows. He was constantly drawing energy from the entire instance to nourish the cub.
Being free from illness and disaster is not just a wish.
My father is Guanyin, my father is a deity sent by heaven to be my child.
"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt, my sweet little girl, my darling..."
The father gently comforted and protected his child, even if the sky were to fall and the earth were to collapse, the father would hold it up for his child.
The team members, who were taking turns to rest, also realized something was wrong. The entire instance seemed to come alive, and everything in their eyes was constantly distorting, screaming, and wailing.
One team member dodged the plaque that was hurtling towards him and shouted, "The red star has fallen!"
The others lay on the ground, clinging to Yu Chengzhou's legs and shouting, "Captain Yu, did I eat mushrooms? I saw those pillars in front of me twisting like spinning tops, dancing with a crackling sound!"
"I saw a little person too. Could it be that the energy bar I ate was mushroom flavored?"
Yu Chengzhou exhaled: "Close your eyes, everyone!"
"And then, Vice Captain?"
Yu Chengzhou: "They can't save us, we can only wait to die!"
After scolding him, he gave his teammates and himself several items to keep them rational, and then silently recited the following several times in his mind:
Everything is normal.
Backpacks don't speak, incense sticks don't laugh, and pillars don't dance.
If you see it, immediately erase my memory of the first three seconds.
Using this experience, Yu Chengzhou was able to successfully rescue all his team members and pull them back into the protective circle.
Zhou Xun, however, was still fearlessly approaching the cub.
He heard the cubs calling out, and he knew that Qianyuan often called out the names of her lost teammates in her dreams.
Therefore, Zhou Xun once said to Qian Yuan, "If you have nightmares in the future and can't find your way in your dreams, I will tell you to go home."
"You will never get lost. No matter where you are, I will find you."
He ripped off the protective gear around his neck and tossed it into the cub's arms:
"Qianyuan, don't forget to come home!"
The cubs nestled in their father's shadow.
The towering arms covered everything, burying it all in the soil.
Everyone lost consciousness.
It's unclear how long he was unconscious, but when Yu Chengzhou woke up, he brushed the dust off his body and crawled out of the collapsed temple.
He saw that the flesh-and-blood Guanyin was still in the same place, but had become a new, enormous building on the collapsed temple.
The system notification has now been activated:
"The S+ level dungeon boss [Fallen Goddess - Flesh and Blood Guanyin] has evolved into an SSS level boss."
"The instance is about to enter an upgrade phase. At that time, surviving mission participants will be automatically considered as having failed the mission and will be eliminated."
"Vice-captain, what do we do? Do we have no choice but to forcibly leave the instance?"
Zhou Xun was still waiting for Qian Yuan, and Yu Chengzhou was also unwilling to give up and wanted to wait a little longer.
Just as everyone was hesitating, Dad took action.
He pulled his arm out from the ground and wobbled over the heads of the crowd. Just when Yu Chengzhou thought he was going to be disappointed, Qian Yuan's voice came from his father's arms.
"You help Dad rebuild the temple, repair the statues, clean it up, and put it back in its original place. That will be considered completing your task. After that, I'll have Dad send you out."
Yu Chengzhou called out, "Squad Leader..."
Qianyuan peeked half her face out from her father's arms and waved to them: "Go on, goodbye."
goodbye......
He didn't know that he had said goodbye when he left.
However, no one could keep up with the pace of the flesh-and-blood Guanyin, and everyone could only watch helplessly as Qianyuan left once again.
"Damn it, why is it always the squad leader who saves us?! They're all a bunch of useless trash!"
Some people couldn't help but break down and cry.
Every time, they thought that this time, it would be their turn to protect the squad leader.
But when it comes to life and death, Qianyuan always steps ahead of everyone else.
