Chapter 290: Controlling the Beast's Mental Power
Xia Yueke could only sigh inwardly, "That's awesome! He knew the character of that female after only meeting her twice?"
But now that everyone is gone, there is no point in discussing this. As she treated Lang Ce's wound, she said:
"Okay, but don't be so impulsive next time. We should be more calm. You know, if you get angry all the time, it will make you ugly!"
Lang Ce didn't know how to respond for a moment, and looked a little uncomfortable. He curled his lips and said:
"Who would believe your baseless words? Okay, okay, I get it. I'll try to control my emotions next time."
He glanced at the bow Xia Yuke had tied on the wound on his arm, his face full of disgust, and complained:
"Who did you learn this knotting skill from? Why is it so ugly?"
Xia Yueke snorted and retorted:
"This is so beautiful, it suits you perfectly! Also, next time you fight with other stray animals, could you please pay more attention to protecting yourself? Don't get hurt again, okay? I really can't stand the smell of blood!"
In fact, Lang Ce's injury was not serious, it was just a cut by the sharp claws.
He didn't take it seriously at first, and let the wound bleed when he came back. But Xia Yueke's nose was too sensitive, and the moment she got close to him, she could smell the strong smell of blood, and her stomach suddenly churned.
She had never experienced morning sickness, but the smell of blood made her feel nauseous and she almost vomited.
There was no other way, she could only help Lang Ce stop the bleeding on his arm herself.
Originally, she wanted to ask Aqi to come over, but she started trembling as soon as she saw Lang Ce. She had no choice but to go herself.
Seeing Xia Yuke caring about him so much, Lang Ce felt relieved and thought: After all, he is still my little fox. He still cares about me so much and is so heartbroken to see me injured.
So, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly and replied softly: "Okay, I'll listen to you, little fox!"
Xia Yueke nodded, and this little episode passed just like that.
Neither of them mentioned it again.
"By the way, what abilities do you have?"
There was a gleam of curiosity in Xia Yueke's eyes as she stared at Lang Ce intently.
Since they met, she had never seen Lang Ce use his unique abilities. He always relied on his sharp claws to fight the enemy.
"Why is the little fox so interested in this? Could it be that he wants to know and see if I'm capable enough so he can take the opportunity to laugh at me?"
Lang Ce lay lazily on the chair, his posture unrestrained and ostentatious. Then he stretched out his long arms, embraced Xia Yueke beside him in his arms, and showed a satisfied expression.
Xia Yueke held his forehead helplessly and explained:
"How could I be so bored! My ability is to create ice. Maybe one day I can even create a fantastical world of ice and snow. That's why I'm particularly curious about your ability."
"Me? Take a guess."
A mysterious arc appeared on Lang Ce's lips, and his eyes were full of mockery.
Xia Yueke looked at Lang Ce thoughtfully, and speculated, "Could it be that your ability is to possess claws as hard and sharp as steel?"
She felt that her guess was very reasonable. After all, Lang Ce's claws were his most commonly used weapon every time he fought.
Lang Ce chuckled disdainfully: "Such an ordinary ability, how could it be mine?"
Xia Yuke knew that she had guessed wrong, and eagerly signaled with her eyes that Lang Ce should stop keeping her in suspense and reveal the answer quickly.
Lang Ce grinned, and his originally deep wolf eyes instantly turned into vertical pupils.
The moment Xia Yueke looked at him, an inexplicable joy surged in her heart. This joy came for no reason, but was so strong that it was irresistible.
Xia Yueke hugged Lang Ce uncontrollably and blurted out:
"Lang Ce, I definitely like you. I'm so happy when I see you now. It feels like even the weather has become especially beautiful because of you!"
But she was terrified in her heart. This was not what she wanted to say at all. She originally wanted to ask Lang Ce what he was doing and ask him to stop immediately. She wanted him to reveal his ability, not use it on herself.
Lang Ce was very proud, hugged her tightly and said:
"Really, my little fox, I like you too."
After about five minutes of stalemate, Xia Yueke finally regained consciousness.
She immediately pushed Lang Ce away, her eyes filled with shock and surprise:
"Your ability isn't to control people, is it? I didn't even want to say those words just now!"
Lang Ce met Xia Yueke's shocked gaze and nodded calmly:
"My ability is to manipulate a kind of mental force that can control the consciousness of other orcs. In other words, the moment you and I look each other in the eye, you will act according to my instructions for a period of time. If I tell you to laugh, you have to laugh. If I tell you to cry, you have to cry."
When talking about his abilities, Lang Ce's face was full of pride.
"Then you're invincible, right? If you control the enemy stray beast and make it commit suicide, then what's the point of fighting?"
Xia Yueke asked in surprise.
Lang Ce explained with a smile:
"It's not that exaggerated. I can only control orcs of a lower level than me. I'm only level 11 at the moment. The greater the level gap, the longer the control time, and vice versa."
Xia Yue is a fifth-level orc, so he was controlled by Lang Ce for a relatively longer time.
Those stray animals may only be controlled for two minutes or even less.
However, Lang Ce usually uses this ability as a trump card, making the most of it unexpectedly at critical moments. He prefers to conserve his strength at other times.
Being able to tell Xia Yueke about this ability is enough to prove his trust in her.
Xia Yueke was full of envy and felt that Lang Ce's ability was much greater than her own.
At present, I can only create ice shields, ice spikes, and at most an ice rink.
Lang Ce keenly noticed the envy in Xia Yueke's eyes and said with a smile:
"Want to become stronger? I can teach you. Since your ability is of ice attribute, you can definitely develop various defensive and offensive methods."
Xia Yueke's eyes lit up instantly and she nodded hurriedly:
"Okay, okay, teach me how to become more powerful."
Lang Ce pulled Xia Yueke to an open area and began to explain seriously:
"The key to ice abilities lies in the control of temperature and moisture. The ice shields and ice spikes you created previously were just basic applications. To unleash greater power, you must first learn to sense moisture in your surroundings."
As he spoke, he grabbed a handful of air, as if to show Xia Yuke the invisible water vapor in it.
Xia Yueke imitated Lang Ce, closing her eyes and calming down to take in her surroundings. At first, she felt nothing but emptiness, but as she continued to try, she gradually caught the faint scent of moisture in the air.
"I feel it!" She opened her eyes excitedly.
"very good."
Lang Ce nodded approvingly. "Next, try to condense this water vapor and mobilize the ice power in your body to guide it to form according to your wishes."
