The system takes the poor cub to find his father

Chapter 172 The man swallowed guiltily

The man squatted there motionless like a sculpture, and the inky black shadow behind him was spreading and expanding silently.

Soon, the black shadow quickly filled the entire space like a surging tide. The extremely thick black seemed to have life, baring its fangs and claws and almost covering the man completely.

Even the originally still room began to twist strangely.

A thick, fishy smell of water vapor accompanied by black shadows filled the entire space. The walls seemed to be alive. When one put one's hand on them, one could clearly feel the rhythm like a heartbeat.

Tick-tick-tick, the sticky substance kept dripping slowly from the wall. The fishy smell became stronger and stronger. Countless sounds kept hitting the man's eardrums, giving him a splitting headache.

"I want to see him, I want to see him, cub, cub."

"Go find the cub, go find the cub."

"Hug baby, hug baby"

The man still lowered his head, leaning against the wall, motionless. It seemed that those voices had no effect on him at all.

But if you look closely, you will find that his eyes are becoming increasingly dark and empty, as if some unknown and horrible substance is about to break out of his body.

As the shadows expanded endlessly, the wall on Ji Li's side gradually became wet, and the black inexplicable substance continued to gather and covered the direction of the cub.

System 8517 bound to Ji Li suddenly felt a terrifyingly powerful force surging wildly. Even its own program was affected, and garbled characters appeared for a moment.

"Alert, alert, unknown force detected, conducting assessment, beep."

"Ding ding - ding ding - Danger level: high risk. High risk notification again. Please ask the system to evacuate the host as soon as possible. Warning, warning."

The little cub, who was sleeping extremely soundly, was disturbed by the piercing alarm of the system. He frowned, waved his hands randomly in the air, and threw his pillow towards the wall next to him in annoyance, muttering softly:

"Stop making noise, it's annoying."

The soft pillow hit the wall without making any sound.

However, this slight touch caused the twisted black shadow that was gradually spreading next door to freeze instantly, and it dared not move.

After a while, it quietly observed the little cub falling asleep again, and the black shadow gradually shrank back guiltily, like a sneaky child who had done something wrong.

Gradually, the black shadow behind the man returned to its original human shape, and the wall that was wriggling as if blood vessels were flowing returned to its hard and cold touch.

The soft sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains and gently fell on the man. This warm touch gradually brought the man back to his senses from his confusion. The man also seemed to have just come back to his senses at this time, his dark eyes flashed, and a trace of confusion flashed in them.

What happened just now? He actually had no memory of it at all.

The alarm of System 8517 also stopped abruptly. At that moment, the unknown force it detected suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Hey! Is there something wrong with its system? It looked at the program that reset the danger level with confusion. It clearly saw the shocking red warning just now. It seems that after this mission is over, it will have to apply to return to the system space for repair.

Wow, it just came out of the factory and it's so young, but it's already broken. I guess other people will laugh at it again.

After another test to confirm that there were no abnormalities, system 8517 fell into deep sleep again.

On the wall, a sticky black drop of water fell to the floor with a plop, and then was quickly wiped clean by a black shadow that stretched out from the wall, and then shrank back in a whoosh, as if nothing had happened.

Without the system's noise and strange crawling sounds, Ji Li slept very soundly the rest of his sleep.

When Ji Li rubbed his sleepy eyes and sat up from the bed, what came into view was the dim skylight coming through the window.

Ji Li was a little dazed for a moment, thinking that he had returned to the dark abyss. In the game world, there was no distinction between day and night, only a scarlet moon hanging high in the sky, and the sky was dark and gloomy all day long. The beginning and end of the copy were not distinguished by time.

Ji Li, who had just woken up and was still a little dazed, looked at the sky outside and thought he was back in the game until there was a gentle knock on the door.

A skinny figure appeared at Ji Li's door, and the numbness in the little cub's eyes disappeared instantly.

"Li'er, it's time to eat."

The old man's face was still somewhat dull, and he didn't shrink as he did outside.

"Okay, come right away."

Ji Li refused the old man's move to help the little cub tidy up his clothes, and put on his clothes swiftly. The black mist rolled up Ji Li's kicked slippers from the other side of the door and placed them at his feet.

When the old man saw the slippers flying in the air, he still looked dazed, not surprised at all, as if this was supposed to be the case.

"Woof woof", the anxious call of Maotuan came from outside the window.

"Put me down, bastard."

Ji Li turned his head to look at the stupid dog still hanging on the tree outside the window. He pouted his little mouth and moved his fingers slightly, and the black mist that imprisoned the fur ball was taken back by him.

With a snap, the unsuspecting fur ball fell from the tree branch. Fortunately, it used its mental power to catch itself in panic, otherwise it would have fallen heavily to the ground.

Damn you little brat, he did it on purpose!

The man leaned stiffly against the wall, listening to the voices from next door gradually fading away. The sunlight outside the window also used up its last bit of afterglow, and the room returned to darkness again.

The man should have been used to this situation, but today he felt particularly irritated.

He didn't want to stay here alone.

He wanted to leave, he wanted to go next door, but they said he couldn't break free of his chains, he couldn't leave, it would bring harm to others,

The man looked at the wall with longing. Zizi was on the other side of the wall. His eyes flashed. If the wall was gone, would he and Zizi be one family?

And he didn't break his promise.

He didn't leave here, he didn't break free from the chains.

He swallowed, and as if bewitched, he pressed his hand against the wall.

The moment the man's fingers touched the wall, spider-web-like cracks began to spread from the palm of his hand to the surrounding areas, and the cracks became larger and larger.

In the restaurant downstairs, Ji Li sat obediently at the dining table and ate the breakfast made by the old man.

Suddenly, they felt the ground shake.

Countless gravel and bricks fell from above their heads. Ji Li immediately erected a barrier to block the falling objects.

But on the dining table, the meal that the old lady had worked so hard to prepare was completely ruined...

Looking at the broken tableware on the dining table, the little cub's face turned gloomy.

Who did this? I'm going to kill him!
