Chapter 65 Do you believe the system will obey?
6 PM, nursery.
As the only cub in the room, panda Li Nai felt lonely, and at the same time, she was a little hungry.
I didn't expect the panda cub to digest food so quickly.
Black claws patted his belly. He mentally counted down to 10.
Crack!
The electronically locked iron gate slid heavily through the door.
After transforming into a panda for a while, she became increasingly lazy.
Lying motionless on its four limbs in its crib, its pair of beady black eyes were half-open, staring longingly at the empty space in front of it. Usually, the robot would place a bowl of milk, two steamed buns, and a large apple in front of its face, one after the other, for it to eat on its own. Tonight was no exception.
The milk pudding was placed down, along with two steamed buns, and then nothing else was placed behind it.
Li Nai: ? ? ? Where's my big apple?!
It propped its head up on its front paws, glaring angrily ahead. There were no robots present.
Black Bean is confused.
Suddenly, a hand grabbed its right hind leg, and the cat was hung upside down.
He even deliberately shook it.
Its body swayed from side to side, and it saw Qi Shuihan smiling with a foxy smile, so it swayed from side to side as well.
"Want some?" Qi Shuihan teased it with a large apple.
Bad! So bad!
Li Nai remained calm and silent. His black, beady eyes shone brightly. To outsiders, it looked like he was sulking.
Qi Shuihan smiled arrogantly, a hint of wickedness in his eyes. He swung the panda's body back and forth, deliberately aiming an apple at its mouth. Just before it touched the panda, the apple dodged backward.
Li Nai pursed her lips, refusing to eat no matter how the other person tried to provoke her.
After playing for a while, Qi Shuihan lost interest. In that instant of relaxation, a pair of sharp teeth and a large mouth bit her hand.
Qi Shuihan raised an eyebrow, but didn't cry out in pain. She then scooped the panda into her arms and swaggered out of the nursery.
Li Nai took a couple of bites of the big apple, her black bean-like eyes darting around before she belatedly realized they were out. She let out two soft moans, her eyes meeting those of a fox-like eye peering down at her from above.
Don't worry~
They passed the small room next door, the door was open, and inside stood a powered-off robot, its entire body pitch black and cold.
"I set its status to 'task completed.' After restarting the computer in ten minutes, it will automatically return to its original state."
The panda cub, Hei Dou, looked on with admiration, and Qi Shuihan gave it a kiss to show her acceptance.
Li Nai buried his face in the apple and devoured it. A few minutes later, he had only the core left. He held the core in his two paws and threw it somewhere where it wouldn't be noticed.
A slender finger pinched it and flicked it casually.
"Pandas don't need to follow human etiquette. Just throw them around."
Li Nai rolled her eyes. Was I being civilized and promoting good manners? It was just to avoid trouble from running away.
They turned left and right, dodging several waves of robots, and hid in a dark corner. They seemed to be waiting for someone.
"Guess who I'm waiting for?" Qi Shuihan asked, tugging at the panda's head.
The hairy head shook.
"Wait for Lin Jingru to rescue you."
Li Nai's mind went blank for a few seconds. Then it dawned on her—it was about saving her body.
Lin Jingru, save her body? Are you kidding me? The prison holding her body is fraught with danger; there's no going back.
“Shocking, aren’t you? Me too.” Qi Shuihan smiled. “What a fool. I sent her to rescue you, but she insisted on switching plans with me.”
Li Nai noticed that her expression seemed somewhat gloating.
The next second, the alarm lights went off in a flash.
Qi Shuihan's expression changed drastically. A strange smile slipped out from his serious expression.
"She actually succeeded. Hmph, I underestimated her."
Li Nai blinked her beady eyes, a feeling of admiration for Lin Jingru welling up within her.
A pair of short, stocky white robots glided past quickly.
They hid themselves even deeper.
The overhead announcement instructed that all checkpoints be closed to prevent people from escaping.
"Eek!" Li Nai looked up at Qi Shuihan nervously. The woman's pointed chin was both beautiful and resolute.
A hand gently patted her fluffy head.
"Don't worry, your body is very strong; even a hundred steel walls couldn't stop you. We'll wait for them here."
Having said that, Li Nai couldn't help but look around.
A heavy moving sound came from a dozen meters to the right, and a white hatch descended from the top of the passageway connection.
"Eek!" Li Nai glared at Qi Shuihan, while the woman closed her eyes slightly, looking quite content.
If they don't come, we'll be trapped here and die. Wake up!
The protective hatch is tightly embedded in the ground groove.
Li Nai stared silently at the hatch. Finally, as if resigned, he closed his eyes and collapsed into the woman's arms behind him.
Sigh~
Boom! —
Li Naimeng sat up abruptly and looked towards the source of the sound.
The hatch, which had just closed, shattered into pieces upon impact, and a figure emerged from the smoke and dust.
He walked with an upright posture, neither hurried nor slow, his feet treading on the broken pieces as if they were flat ground, his empty eyes staring at them without blinking.
With so much dust, don't your eyes get dry and itchy? Li Nai wondered.
Suddenly, there was a movement beneath her. Qi Shuihan stood up, holding it, and greeted "Li Nai" in a good mood.
The system naturally ignored her, this little ant; Li Nai could tell that the system only had eyes for her.
Don't even think about leaving; your mission isn't finished yet.
Li Nai was speechless. They'd got it backwards; someone had kidnapped it.
A sudden chill pierced my chin.
With a quick glance, Qi Shuihan noticed a silver spike extending from the tip of her index fingernail.
Li Nai: confused
"You've finally arrived. Let's run away together!"
The tone is friendly, but can you put down your barbs and speak more tactfully?
Behind "Li Nai", Lin Jingru arrived, panting heavily. She was so exhausted that she could no longer support herself and sat down on the ground, covered in blood and mud, looking quite disheveled.
Li Nai kept walking, her eyes darting around as if she had just noticed Qi Shuihan.
laugh.
That's a really annoying attitude.
Qi Shuihan squinted. The silver spikes on his fingertips slowly penetrated deeper, and the panda cub whimpered.
"Want to switch hosts? If not, then come with us."
Li Nai pushed Qi Shuihan's wrist away with both hands, her black bean eyes moist. That last blow had really pierced the flesh.
It exerted force with its claws, while simultaneously turning its head in the opposite direction. In the struggle, it felt a chill at the junction of its jaw and neck.
A slight hum. A sharp object flies by at supersonic speed.
He reflexively turned his head to look.
A metal strip stretched across his face, gleaming silver, its end disappearing into the right side of "Li Nai's" neck, blood trickling down. Tiny spurts of blood occasionally sprayed from its edge.
Li Nai's black bean eyes widened.
When?! At what speed?!
If Qi Shuihan hadn't launched the first attack, the system would probably have already rushed up to their faces and smashed Qi Shuihan's head with a single punch.
The spikes retracted instantly. Just as Qi Shuihan swayed backward, he keenly sensed the killing intent and immediately raised the panda to meet the downward slashing palm.
All of this happened in less than two seconds.
Li Nai's mouth trembled as she stared cross-eyed at the fingers pressed together in front of her brow. If she were human, her face would be as white as a sheet and she would be covered in sweat.
"Do you only behave when there's bloodshed?"
Qi Shui's cold and alluring voice slid back and forth.
Before Li Nai could recover from the shock, she heard a sentence fly past her ear—"Sorry, just bear with it so you can get out."
The next second, I felt a chill on my chest as something was flung out and landed with a thud.
A slice of meat with black and white hairs.
Waaaaaah!!!
Li Nai struggled frantically, while Hei Dou stared at the system with eyes wide open.
Stop hitting me! I'm being tortured to death!
Li Nai withdrew from his attack stance, his empty eyes fixed on the panda's bloodied chest. He then reached into his pocket and pulled something out, clenching his fist as he moved forward.
The fox-like eyes were alert, but it saw "Li Nai" take two steps, pause, squat down to pick up the slice of meat, and stretch out both hands at the same time.
One of the palms held a small green medicine bottle.
The system is so good to me!
Li Naiheidou had tears in her eyes, and her two paws kept trying to hook the medicine bottle.
Knowing that there was no time to lose, Qi Shuihan snatched the medicine bottle, pried open the stopper with his thumbnail, and quickly poured it into the panda's mouth.
Freshly cut skin and flesh are applied, and the flesh and blood quickly adhere together.
Qi Shuihan withdrew her gaze, glanced sideways at "Li Nai," and gently patted the fluffy back of the panda cub in her arms. "I'd appreciate it if you could lead us to a way out." Her fox-like eyes smiled charmingly.
Li Nai turned around decisively with a blank expression, facing the hatch that he had violently broken open.
Qi Shuihan followed slowly behind, passing Lin Jingru, glancing at her pale, sickly face, and was quite surprised.
"How did you get yourself into this state?"
His gaze briefly swept over Lin Jingru's crippled hand before he walked away.
Lin Jingru raised her phoenix eyes and glared at the two people walking further and further away, her eyebrows twitching involuntarily. She wrapped her extremely painful hand tightly, used her shoulder to support herself against the wall and slowly shuffled to her feet. Catching her breath, she lifted her foot to catch up.
As Qi Shuihan said, Li Nai's body is very strong, and even a hundred steel walls and iron barriers cannot stop him.
Wherever they went, bits of dust and debris flew everywhere.
Having a system is great; it comes with highly intelligent navigation, so there's no need to try to steal maps—just follow it.
After dealing with the new batch of guard robots, they arrived at an open space.
The circular arena is surrounded by tall white glass walls, with arrows pointing outwards towards one wall.
Another tightly sealed hatch.
Just as I walked in—
【Do you wish to redeem the magnetic particles?】
[Already placed in backpack.]
Li Nai was dazed: What particles?! Did I exchange them?
His black bean-like eyes stared suspiciously at the system's back. He walked normally, without making any sudden movements.
Something's not right. Something's definitely not right.
They approached the hatch, and "Li Nai," who was at the front, stopped, clenched her fist, and prepared to punch the hatch. A loud thunderous roar followed, the hatch shattered, and dust billowed up everywhere.
Li Nai withdrew his outstretched hand, his eyelids unblinking, his figure appearing and disappearing in the choking dust.
Qi Shuihan squinted and followed a few steps, only to find that he was clearly unwell and even a little tired.
"Waaah!"
Panda Li Nai looked puzzled and glanced at Lin Jingru beside him.
Qi Shuihan's brows furrowed with suspicion as he stared at "Li Nai," whose figure was obscured. It hadn't moved since the hatch was first smashed.
His eyes hesitated for a moment, then became extremely wary.
It wasn't just her back view! It had been observing her the whole time.
The dust particles quickly faded away.
"Li Nai" has disappeared.
Qi Shuihan was horrified for a moment, sensing something was wrong. He stabbed back, his five fingers wrapped in silver metal, extending half a meter long, sharp as a sword blade.
In her experience, even if the victim didn't die, they would definitely be injured.
Turning my head to look, I was immediately stunned.
The blade, which should have been hard, actually bent softly, avoiding the steadfast "Li Nai" and pointing to the other side.
Snap!
With a single punch, he instantly shattered the layer of silver armor on Qi Shuihan's arm.
In the air, the powdery silver metal rippled outwards, as if frozen in place and unable to move.
At the same time, her arms were suddenly empty; the panda cub had been snatched away.
"Eek!"
No!
Li Nai tried to stop the system from unleashing another punch, but it was too late.
Qi Shuihan was sent flying, crashing into the glass wall. Due to the wall's special material, the massive impact only caused spiderweb-like cracks on the surface, with some glass shards falling off.
vomit!
Qi Shuihan opened his mouth and spat out another mouthful of blood.
On the ground, blood mixed with silvery substances. These substances detached from the blood, shimmering, and slowly rose. Upon entering the area containing other silvery metallic particles in the air, they solidified and remained motionless.
The fox-like creature squinted and glanced upwards, surveying the large, scattered mass of metallic matter that had emerged from its own body in the air, a cold smile playing on its lips.
“No wonder you’re so compliant.” She clutched her heart, feeling short of breath.
That punch was aimed straight at her heart; if she hadn't gathered all her silver energy in time to withstand it, she would have died on the spot.
A pair of legs came into view, and "Li Nai" approached rapidly, carrying a panda cub in one arm, while her other hand dangled as if to grab her neck.
She moved slightly, and blood kept spitting out of her mouth, with more of the silvery substance leaking out.
Cold fingers touched the skin of my neck.
Raising its chin, the fox's eyes showed no fear of death as it swept across Li Nai's face and stared intently at the panda cub, its pink and white lips opening and closing.
Don't kill her!
His hand had already gripped her slender neck tightly.
[System! Listen to me, she's no longer a threat to us.]
The finger bones are taut and white.
I will never go with just anyone again. Really!
...
The twilight streaks across the sky streamed through the car window, bringing Qi Shuihan to her senses.
He's still alive.
A few fragments of hazy memory flashed by: a little panda cub relentlessly clung to "Li Nai's" face, whimpering and making all sorts of noises.
Could it be—
Suddenly, the ground beneath me shook, and then, along with the carriage, I bounced around a lot.
He braced himself against the sheet metal, turned around and looked around, and saw Lin Jingru sitting in the far corner.
Phoenix Eyes noticed and gave her a sharp look.
"How did we..." His mouth filled with the taste of rust, and he tried to moisten his throat. "Where are they?"
They were referring to "Li Nai" and the panda cub.
Lin Jingru withdrew her gaze, her voice cold and slightly hoarse.
“I brought you out. The convoy was sent by my sister, Missyco.”
Her sickly, fox-like eyes narrowed, conveying an unspoken message. Her tone was ambiguous: "You've gone to such lengths for me. Too bad my body has already been given to someone else."
