Chapter 142
Wen Xingxue felt like she was being targeted by a crappy octopus.
In any dungeon related to the ocean or school, Wen Xingxue would encounter the transparent octopus every time, waving its tentacles and pouncing towards her with its claws and fangs bared.
Wen Xingxue recognized at a glance that this was Xingnuo's brother.
At first he thought that they were all family and it was not easy to take action, so he endured it and hid every time.
As a result, the octopus will lie on his face the next moment, with an arrogant attitude, and beat him up!
Wen Xingxue was on the deck of the ship at that time, rolling on the ground, furious and fighting with the damn octopus.
The other players on the ship avoided the battlefield one after another, and couldn't help but hiss as they watched Wen Xingxue and Octopus fight with the most primitive methods.
"What are these two doing?"
"Is this really the SSS+ octopus monster and the number one Wen Shen?"
As childish as a fight between primary school students!
The man and the monster had fought enough, vented their anger, said a few harsh words to each other, and then left.
Shen Baizhou returned home angrily with wounds on his forehead and mouth.
Xingnuo was watching today's cartoon. He turned around and saw his brother coming back, then he withdrew his gaze as if he was used to it.
These past two days, my brother falls to the ground every time he goes out, and his face is covered with bruises. Xingnuo has gotten used to it.
After taking two sips of the honey water, Xing Nuo remembered something, pulled Shen Baizhou over, and whispered to him:
"Brother, I know how Dad found out that we hid the ice cream!"
Chen Baizhou thought how else could he have discovered it? It must have been that Wen Xingxue who approached Chen Wen with bad intentions and then told him the secret!
Xingnuo pointed to a round object in the corner and said:
"This is a camera. Dad installed it a few days ago."
Shen Baizhou's eyelids twitched, he hissed softly, and touched the corner of his cut mouth.
I got beaten for nothing!
Wen Xingxue saw Shen Baizhou, the school's most core monster, reappear in a school detective copy.
Wen Xingxue was about to say that he didn’t have time to fight this time, but he saw Shen Baizhou throwing something over, saying “for you”, and then disappeared quickly.
Wen Xingxue caught this high-level energy item and was confused for a moment.
Why do these little monsters created by Chen Wen have such weird brains?
***
Xingnuo performed stably in the final exam. The questions for first graders were relatively simple. There were many students who scored full marks in the class, and it was impossible to distinguish their rankings.
However, Xingnuo still got a full score certificate, put it in his schoolbag, and skipped home.
School ended early this afternoon. The kids wanted to play for a while before going back home, but Xingnuo wanted to show his certificate to his father as soon as possible, so he rejected Qingqing and An Zimo's invitation and went home alone.
Just as he reached the corner, with the entrance to the community not far away, Xingnuo suddenly felt someone following him.
Without looking back, he ran forward quickly. When he turned the corner, he saw the familiar supermarket owner sitting at the door enjoying the cool air. He breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head sharply.
Lu Qi's cold and mechanical face appeared in front of Xingnuo.
Xingnuo widened his eyes in shock and shouted:
"Lu Qi?!"
Lu Qi smiled with a stiff face, wearing long pants and long sleeves to cover his mechanical legs and arms, and hummed.
"Xingnuo, you didn't forget me this time!"
Xingnuo couldn't help but smile, his eyes curved like a small crescent moon, bright and shining.
"Yes, I will never forget it again."
Lu Qi didn't understand, but he was happy enough that Xingnuo remembered him.
Xing Nuo looked at the people around him, pulled Lu Qi under the tree at the corner, and couldn't help asking:
"Xiaoqi, how did you get here?"
Didn’t Lu Qi say that he was in another world?
Lu Qi answered without reservation:
"I used some energy to crawl out from the gap between the two worlds."
During this period of time, Lu Qi has been stealing energy in the horror world, from monsters, dungeons, and players. As long as it contains energy, he will take some.
In just over half a year, Lu Qi's strength had recovered a little bit.
Afraid that Xingnuo would forget about him again after a while, Lu Qi followed the monsters who wanted to crawl out of the space gap and came to the real world together.
Xingnuo's eyes were full of doubts, and he said softly:
"What is a world gap? Is it like an ant hole?"
Lu Qi couldn't describe it. After hesitating for a while, his dark pupils began to flash blue again, and he simply opened his mouth to invite:
"Otherwise, Xingnuo, come with me and take a look! You will know after you see it!"
Xingnuo turned his head to look at the entrance of the community, then looked at Lu Qi, hesitated for a long time, and finally shook his head to refuse.
"I have to go home first to give the certificate to my father. It's getting dark, and it's not safe for a child to go alone."
Lu Qi didn't know how to refute Xing Nuo at all. He just said "Okay" and curved his eyes like Xing Nuo.
"Xingnuo can go anytime, I can accompany you."
Xingnuo will start summer vacation and won’t have to go to school during the day. He thought for a moment and said to Lu Qi:
"How about tomorrow? We'll go and see it in the morning!"
Xingnuo was also extremely curious about this space gap.
The two little ones reported their recent situation respectively. Xingnuo has been in elementary school, and Lu Qi has been wandering around the horror world stealing energy. He is currently wanted by monsters throughout the horror world.
Xingnuo couldn't help but be surprised: "Then you are in danger!"
So many monsters hate Lu Qi. Lu Qi must be unable to stay in this horror world, so he came to find me.
Lu Qi didn't think it was a big deal at all, and said indifferently:
"It's okay. Once I steal their energy a couple more times, they should be familiar with it and won't resist having their energy stolen anymore."
Xingnuo was stunned, and opened his mouth to say something, but seemed unable to speak.
Lu Qi also said:
"This is something Xingnuo and I learned from you!"
Xing Nuo's eyes widened completely, and he quickly shook his head and said:
"I don't steal anything, I'm a good boy!"
Lu Qi nodded, not feeling that there was anything contradictory about this.
"Being a good kid and stealing energy are not contradictory. We were in a more dangerous situation before, and we only managed to survive by stealing a little here and there."
Xingnuo looked a little dazed, opened his mouth, and couldn't help but say:
“Were we so miserable before?”
Do you have to steal energy to survive?
Lu Qi nodded, and couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the past.
"We were really miserable back then, similar to my current situation, and even more tormented. Fortunately, it's over now. Now I can just steal energy by myself."
Xingnuo was speechless for a long time before he spoke in a muffled voice:
"Then you must be careful."
Lu Qi nodded and waved towards Xingnuo.
"I'm leaving now, Xingnuo, you go back. I'll wait for you here tomorrow!"
Xingnuo wanted to take Lu Qi back, but Lu Qi didn’t know anyone here and had to sleep on the street at night, which was so miserable.
Lu Qi shook his head, not wanting to face Xingnuo's family of horrible monsters.
"No need. I'll go back to the space gap. If there are monsters passing by, I can steal some more."
Xingnuo thought that Lu Qi was really obsessed with stealing energy.
Maybe it’s because Lu Qi has replaced his arms and legs with robotic arms. If there is no energy, just like smart appliances are out of power, his arms and legs will be useless.
Xingnuo returned home with a small schoolbag on his back, feeling heavy-hearted.
He gave the certificate to his father, and Shen Wen went to find a custom-made wooden frame to frame it for him and hang it on the specially made wall of honor for display.
On this wall, there are also the small flags of the three-legged race champion won by Xingnuo during kindergarten, the first place medal for folding snowflakes after work, the award for the best baby at the end of the semester, etc.
Xingnuo stood in front of the wall with his hands behind his back, looked at the honor he had received, and nodded with satisfaction.
I behaved so well, it must be different from what Lu Qi said, I would not steal other people's energy.
Another question arises, what is energy?
After meeting Lu Qi the next day, Xingnuo got an explanation.
"Energy is something that all living species in the world have in their bodies, but some people have weak energy, while others have strong energy."
"When life is in danger, the energy in the body will be more likely to burst out, so that it can be sensed and utilized by the species."
Xingnuo seemed to understand and nodded.
"Just like Superman on TV! He's extremely strong and can fly!"
Lu Qi thought for a while and nodded.
"Almost, but it's still not realistic to fly. But with various energy props, it can be achieved."
Xingnuo only had a vague understanding, so he hummed and stopped asking questions.
"Let's go and see what the space gap looks like!"
Lu Qi held Xingnuo's hand, said okay, and led him to the corner.
Xingnuo wanted to say that they were about to hit their heads against the wall, but because of his trust in Lu Qi, he suppressed the words and just banged his head against the wall.
The wall shook like water ripples, and Xingnuo passed through and came to a dark and narrow space.
Wherever Xingnuo looked, it was all black. He couldn't even see his fingers. The surroundings were empty and lonely.
Lu Qi's mechanical voice came, and he held Xingnuo's hand tightly.
"Xingnuo, don't be afraid. We'll get there if we keep going forward."
Xingnuo felt that he had walked such a long and dark path before, as if to find his father, but his memory was vague and he couldn't be sure.
The two walked forward, and Lu Qi's icy blue eyes became the only source of light here, sparkling brightly.
Xingnuo stared into Lu Qi's eyes, clenched his hands and walked forward.
Fortunately, two minutes later, they reached an open area.
The sight instantly changed from dim to bright.
There are rugged and steep rock walls, a mountain that spews fire from time to time not far away, and a huge and deep chasm at the foot. It is devastated and dangerous.
Xingnuo stopped and was so hot from the volcano that he couldn't help but take a step back.
“Is this a volcano?”
Lu Qi nodded and introduced him:
"This is the edge of the monster world, and also the border with the human world!"
It is terrifying and dangerous. Not only is it difficult for humans to pass through, but even many monsters cannot pass through.
Lu Qi stretched out his hand and pointed at Xingnuo:
"That volcano had been erupting before, and the hot magma flowed into the cracks in front. The energy of the eruption was terrifying, and no living creature could get close to it."
Xingnuo could sense the danger of this place just by looking at it, and couldn't help asking:
"And now?"
Lu Qi thought about what he had investigated and turned to look at Xing Nuo:
"Now the volcano has gone out for some reason. And the transparent barrier on the volcano is getting weaker and weaker. Some monsters can crawl out from there through the cracks underneath."
Lu Qi pointed to the opposite side and said to Xing Nuo:
"Opposite is the dungeon world we have visited before."
Xingnuo looked at the volcano from which sparks occasionally came out, with indescribable shock in his eyes.
