Chapter 17 No, Baimu?



Baimu sat in the back seat of the car and waited for a while.

Nicole and Nekomata came skipping over hand in hand.

Bai Mu looked puzzled, "When did they become so close?"

We just met.

But he didn't care.

"Nicole, drive."

Nicole pulled up the driver's seat, "Okay, Nekomata, do you want to sit with me or Shiraki?"

Mao glanced at Bai Mu again, "Of course it's with Sister Nicole. Sister Nicole, when can I bury it again?"

The two of them got into the driver's seat and the co-pilot's seat one after another, talking and laughing, and completely ignoring Bai Mu.

Baimu looked out the window and saw a nice view of the street.

He didn't notice any change in the atmosphere.

Soon, the car arrived at the destination. A giant tunnel was built below the horizon. Standing at the entrance of the tunnel and looking up, you could vaguely see the remains of the wild mountain there.

What is even bigger is a huge spherical arched hole, which seems to be swallowing up everything in the wild mountain and slowly growing bigger.

Ether energy continued to gather here, and even Bai Mu, who was standing far away, felt a slight attraction.

He took out his cell phone and dialed the number on the business card.

"Hello? Phaethon Hotline. Are you here to inquire about business?"

A girl's voice came from the phone, it should be Ling.

Bai Mu: "It's me. I'm already at the entrance of the Type 3 Hollow. I can go in anytime."

Ling nodded, and the sound of keyboards came from the other side. "It's Baimu. Wait a moment, I'll arrange for Bomb to go over. You are at the entrance of the subway tunnel, right? I saw you."

As she spoke, a Bomb appeared out of nowhere and waved towards Shiraki.

Bai Mu nodded. That Bomb was the one who took him out of the hole yesterday. "Do we have to rely on Bomb from now on?"

There was no sound on the other end of the phone. Bomb walked over to Bai Mu and said, "Yeah!"

Nicole squatted down and hugged Bomb to her chest, "Phaethon, stop pretending to be Bomb at this time."

"Alright, alright, so let's go into the Hollow. We've already collected all the data here. The Hollow is safe for now, and there are no dangerous individuals."

Bai Mu looked towards the void and said, "Before the battle, let's plan some tactics."

As he spoke, Shiraki looked at Nekomata's legs and arms, "Nekomata, you should be an assassin, using sharp claws to fight."

The cat nodded again and held out its paw, "Yes, meow."

"Nekomata can help you with support and harvesting!"

Bai Mu looked at Nicole again, "Nicole, you belong to the long-range combat unit, right?"

Nicole flipped the switch on the suitcase, and it transformed into a gun barrel, with several shotgun holes appearing. "I'm good at both close combat and long range, but my shooting accuracy isn't as good as Billy's."

"They excel at close-range combat, and their special ammunition can help you relieve some of the pressure in combat."

Bai Mu nodded, "I don't think I need to elaborate, it's pure close combat."

Nicole and Nekomata both nodded. They had all heard about Shiraki's terrifying melee ability.

"If that's all right, let's go."

Bai Mu said as he trotted off towards the cave.

Nicole and Maou followed behind, both moving at a fast pace.

Soon, they rushed into the cave, and a fantastic scene flashed before the eyes of the three people.

When the scene ended, the three of them entered the empty space of the old station again.

Bai Mu turned around to look at the two of them, confirmed that there was no problem, and said, "Rope Maker, where should we go?"

Bomb hesitated for a moment. "The target is indicated to be at ten o'clock, but the route inside the cave is complicated. My suggestion is to go directly to twelve o'clock. Once you are parallel to the target, then move towards nine o'clock."

As Ling was speaking,

Clusters of etheric matter have condensed around the three people.

Hundreds!

Nicole took two steps back hesitantly, "Hey, Bai Mu, do you have any special physique? Why so many?"

The cat looked at the terrifying number of meows and its fur stood up in fear. "Normally when we explore the cave, there are only about a dozen meows at most. What's going on?"

Bai Mu: “Isn’t it always this much?”

As he spoke, another sphere of ethereal energy appeared on his face. It was incredibly tiny, but it slowly expanded around the corner of his eye!

This was the first time Ling had seen such a situation. "Something's wrong, Bai Mu, don't you have a body that can withstand the erosion of ether?"

Bai Mu: "Resistance to etheric erosion? What is that?"

Suddenly, the voice appeared in Baimu's mind again.

【Understand, Join, Become, Surpass】

【You can't get rid of me, ever! 】

The ball on Baimu's face grew bigger and bigger. Nicole and the cat looked at each other and swallowed their saliva. "Baimu, are you still human?"

The cat's face turned pale with anxiety. "If Baimu is eroded by the ether, I will be a widow! No, meow!"

As soon as Bai Mu heard the voice in his head, he knew what was going on. "I see, that's why you told me earlier."

[Stop resisting, join us, the power, the overwhelming power.]

He reached out and touched his face, and the ball was still in the same place.

He pulled the sphere out and placed it in front of himself.

This time he learned his lesson. Throwing it away was pointless. He immediately looked at the sphere with a bright smile, "The power is very good, very good."

Accept it.

[Hey! What do you want to do? Why are you raising your fist? Are you doing this again?]

"But, I refuse!"

As he said that, he let go of one hand, but his other fist could no longer be restrained and punched towards the sphere fiercely!
