Chapter 19 Ancient Civilization Infection Zone (6) Jinjiang exclusive authorized first release...
Mo Wan bit her lip to hold back her sobs, and choked up as she said, "...then, can you please not touch me with other people...No, I don't mean to refuse, it's just that this is too wanton, I mean myself. I can't...forgive myself."
Ani looked at him for a moment, staring at the exposed, too pale skin. She searched for knowledge related to the Zerg in her mind, and her thoughts gradually wandered.
Their race of non-intermarriage seems to be different from the teacher.
Mermaids value "mutual consent" and even among members of the same tribe, they need mutual recognition. She must learn how to "fall in love" before the teacher will be willing to accept her. But Mo Wan seemed to be very easily stressed after being forced by foreigners, and thus turned back into his original form, becoming an insane killing machine.
Only after thoroughly learning the mimicry of female spiders can the deadlock be broken.
Her eyes stayed on him for too long and she didn't move away. Even though Mo Wan was dressed neatly, with his robe gathered to his neck and the ribbon covering his Adam's apple tied tightly, his skin still felt hot from her gaze.
Her presence was so strong that her gaze seemed to burn through clothes. He was obviously conservative and strict, but in a trance, he felt that he was almost naked.
He had the urge to cover her eyes. Homeless and living under someone else's roof, Mo Wan didn't know how she had the courage to speak: "Lady Ani, what are you looking at...?"
Ani came back to her senses. "I was just daydreaming. Don't worry, I'll try not to irritate you... Well, you'd better tell me your customs and traditions in detail. The records of Planet Aquamarine may not be completely accurate."
Mo Wan nodded silently, and suddenly asked: "The other man, is he your partner?"
"Ah?" Ani thought without hesitation, "He is my brother, everyone in town calls him that. How can he be my partner? Why are you asking this?"
"Because I can't offend his status and ask about your household affairs on his behalf." Mo Wan explained softly, "In this case, then, can I help you mend your clothes? Sorry, I really can't think of anything else I can do..."
Annie nodded and took off her coat naturally. The black-haired young man sitting opposite was startled and turned his head away hurriedly, not looking at the other person's body.
He had limited space to move around in, so he remained quietly hidden in this small attic while the church was being rebuilt.
After Mo Wan disappeared, it indeed caused a huge uproar. For a time, all missionaries became quiet, trying to "stay out of the spotlight." The apparent peace was exchanged for a more intense competition in secret, and the fires of night watchmen and outsiders often suddenly descended at midnight.
Amid the panic, the Abundance Church, which claims to be a "local faith", reopened without hesitation despite the storm. This was so bold and direct that it shocked everyone for a moment. They had no idea about Annie's background.
In the "calm", the two messengers of God began to engrave the divine precepts, add oaths, and repaint Iris's holy book and murals on the wall. The project looked huge, but it was completed overnight by Ani and her dozen hardworking tentacles. The efficiency and quality amazed Ling Yi San.
"Does Hailan University have this kind of teaching quality? It's really a competition for an all-round top student like you." Ling Yisan touched his chin and questioned, "What are you drawing here?"
"It's a good harvest." Ani, who was still adding color, answered without looking up.
A small tentacle rolled up the paintbrush dipped in other paints and put it steadily into her hand.
"I know it's a good harvest. It's okay if the fields and cattle and sheep have a good harvest, but why... no, there can be a good harvest of children as well?" Ling Yi San's tone was very complicated.
"Hmm? What's the problem?" Ani's brain circuit didn't realize what was wrong. "Isn't having many children a good harvest? We are the chosen ones of Slaanesh, not the running dogs of the Mother Goddess of Fertility. What's wrong with happiness, joy, love, and then reaping offspring?"
"..." Ling Yi San took a deep breath, walked over and squatted, pointing at the mural, "This is a man."
Ani's expression was very innocent: "Yes."
Ling Yi San lowered his head and covered his eyes with one hand, deciding not to argue with her: "Okay, I'll listen to you. Nini, happiness and pleasure are fine, but do you understand what love is?"
"I understand." Ani answered confidently with one word, without any hesitation, "I love my teacher very much. It's just that he doesn't like me. He hates me. Um... oops, I drew it wrong."
The smile on Ling Yisan's face seemed to be paused. He slowly pursed his lips and stared at her profile without blinking.
A small tentacle went up to fix the mistake, and Annie continued to work hard, chatting frankly: "It's a pity that mermaids can't have children. If the teacher could get pregnant, I might not come to the hunting ground. I will stay with him until the child is born and can protect itself. He cooks deliciously... Well, it would be better if he didn't like seafood so much... Hey!"
Ling Yisan grabbed her up.
The little tentacle was caught off guard and accidentally smeared the paint onto Annie's face. She looked at Ling Yi San in confusion: "Brother?"
Ling Yisan's grip on her collar continued to tighten, his finger bones made a creaking sound, and his joints trembled and turned white from the exertion: "You."
Ani didn't know why he was angry, so she tilted her head to observe his expression.
"You..." He only uttered this unclear word. Ling Yi San seemed to want to ask something, but he swallowed it back hard. The breath he swallowed back into his stomach went through his throat, and it was like a blade cutting through his lungs. He suddenly raised his hand and wiped the paint off Annie's face roughly and forcefully.
The girl's soft cheeks were rubbed red, and the remaining paint rubbed his hand. Annie hugged Ling Yisan's arm like a large, squashed doll: "It hurts, it hurts...Brother!"
Ling Yi San paused, his chest heaved violently, and chaotic and disordered breathing sounds were heard. In her sight, Ani was still looking at him curiously, she didn't realize anything.
Ling Yi San suddenly laughed. He didn't know who he should feel frustrated for. He said, "Your teacher doesn't like you?"
"Yes." Annie said, "He told me so himself."
Although he had only met Lin once, he could vaguely sense how devastated the mermaid teacher was. Ling Yi San looked at her and smiled, but he did not feel happy. He just hugged her tightly and said in the girl's ear half teasingly and half sighing: "Stupid Nini."
"You just said I was smart. You said that the top students trained by Hailan University are all-rounders." Ani protested immediately.
"Except for some areas where he doesn't understand, he's pretty versatile." Ling Yi San chuckled, "Let me kiss you, quick."
Annie was thinking about the last bit of the unfinished mural project, so she went over perfunctorily. She didn't know why the other party was so moody, sometimes angry and sometimes happy. Males are really emotional... She felt Ling Yi San's lips press against her cheek, and then he slowly wiped off the traces of paint on her face.
"Are you sure Spider-Man can do this?" he asked casually. "He looks like he'd get scared at the slightest setback."
The confessional is an important part of conveying faith. When a person opens his heart and is willing to confess his sins and mistakes, he will also develop a sense of trust and dependence on the church.
"You can't do anything to comfort people," Ani said. "You'll say, 'Go away, you're looking for death, go away.' Or, 'There's no oil, you need to pay more.'"
Ling Yi San was speechless and could only say, "He won't deviate from the target, will he?"
My brother is really too much. If I give others something that he can't do, he will be picky and complain about it in a roundabout way. Annie was full of expectations for Mo Wan's abilities. She wrote a learning manual for Spider-Man overnight. According to Starnet, it was called a customer service guide.
"It shouldn't be." Ani grabbed his hand, thinking it couldn't be that hard to wipe, and kept touching it. "At least it won't anger the confessor. You have to believe in the quality of the holy water."
"Speaking of which, what exactly is holy water..." Ling Yi San wanted to ask what that thing was, but the girl in his arms suddenly slipped out, so soft and flexible that she could not be caught at all. He had no choice but to put on his cloak, glanced at her, and turned his head, "The miracle of the advent of the mural is not enough, what else do you need?"
"We need evil gods to invade the town," Ani replied, "and we need a few strange events to make their fear overwhelm their anger. Brother, thank you for your help."
"It's nothing." Ling Yi San said, "Wait until I come back before going to bed tonight."
The two idle little tentacles curled up and made a heart shape towards him.
-
The live broadcast screen reflects shadows in the darkness.
This experienced space pirate is notorious and skilled in intimidation and extortion. He turned an ordinary murder scene into one of the tragic scenes of the arrival of an evil god.
A lot of people have always been paying attention to the whereabouts of Ani's group. There are not enough live broadcast devices preset inside the temple, and the parts that cannot be seen make people worry about it and unable to sleep or eat. Many people care about this very much, and they frequently give rewards and ask the players to turn on the first-person perspective.
Ani's communicator was out of battery and she couldn't receive the message. Ling Yi San was harassed by barrages of comments and expensive gifts every day, but he was able to resist the temptation of money and rejected them all.
It was as if there really was some shameful secret in that abandoned temple.
It's too suspenseful. The attention paid to the two of them increased instead of decreased. Several well-known organizations followed Annie's Star Network account and sent her multiple invitations. Unfortunately, all my responses fell on deaf ears and I received no reply from this human female warrior.
"I want to see Annie..." This is the comment with the highest number of likes in real time.
"Little White Rabbit's teammates are so scary. Could it be that Ling Yi San asked her not to use the first-person perspective? She's afraid that she'll steal his limelight." This comment is from an old viewer who has been following the contest since the trials. While posting the comment, he also gave a targeted reward to contestant Annie.
"He finally couldn't stand the pressure of being wanted and surrendered?" Several paid comments started chatting.
"Who knows. Is it because of the failure of the D007 series chip under Tianqiong? It seems that a considerable number of the modified people in their star pirate group use this series of chips as the connection motherboard."
"What price did the Alliance offer him? This guy has so many enemies, yet he dares to come to the Central District. Oh, and he still owes a debt for this 013 number. He is the only successful experimental subject of the Science Federation, and he ran away with the huge project... Look at the residents of the ancient civilization infection zone, they are all deformed and malignant mutations, and they are nothing compared to the ability of this mutant."
"The famous Undead Maniac. Actually, this code name sounds pretty cool. I've long been looking forward to the Alliance signing a live broadcast agreement with him so that he can fight against the top guys in the galaxy..."
"Ahhh, that sounds so dangerous. Wouldn't it be a disadvantage for baby Annie to be on the same team with someone like that?!"
"I'm really impressed by you guys' IP of Aquamarine Star. She only looks cute. How can you still trick new viewers after such a long time?"
Suddenly, the screen of the live broadcast room split into two in the middle. On the left side was the camera following Zero One Three, and on the right side was a fixed view aimed at the temple.
A very narrow stained glass window was opened in the rebuilt attic at the top of the temple. Ani bent over and cleaned the restored stained window. She didn't tie her hair up, and it curled softly on her shoulders, with a focused expression on her face.
"Ah-Ani baby!"
"Baby, you are so cute and you smell so good..." It was obvious that he was attracted by her smell. After being lurking for a long time, he was still blown away by the brief close-up.
"Cute. Woohoo, so cute. She is completely different from those violent machines I usually see from other perspectives. I have complicated feelings for her. I want to give birth to her."
"That's enough - why on earth is she so popular?"
Annie had just wiped it twice when someone suddenly patted her shoulder gently. The audience watching the live broadcast noticed that it was a hand wearing a black velvet glove, a male hand.
Annie raised her head, turned her face and seemed to say something. The other person's figure appeared vaguely by the window, and then he suddenly grabbed the cleaning tools in her hand, and reluctantly but firmly pulled Annie to sit down.
The long-haired man's face flashed across the screen.
It was a very beautiful and familiar face. It was a live broadcast easter egg sent from the hunting ground, the victim of the game between several forces - a helpless male spider.
"???"
"Ani... is she really keeping him? Isn't she afraid of being discovered?! What's the point of keeping this thing? Zerg are very dangerous!"
"We are the only race in the universe that loses its mind when stressed." Some comments were full of irony.
"Wait, who ordered the Zerg recommendation tag?"
The barrage of comments came flooding in like a dam releasing floodwaters. The footage continued without stopping until Mo Wan closed the stained glass window of the attic.
In the attic, Mo Wan gently wiped the water off Ani's fingertips with a handkerchief, and went too far in this regard: "My Lord, how can you do housework?"
He felt that he was right: "Women only need to protect their territories and offspring. This is not what you should do. I can do it well, and I will do my best to do it along with... along with the things you have entrusted to me."
