"This is the strangest way to feed someone I've ever done." I couldn't help but mutter to myself as I looked at the rising mist of light and the 'charging' angel. Of course, nobody responded to me. Little Bubble was busy playing, Ji Shanshan was busy playing with Little Bubble, Mercury Lamp was scowling miserably as Little Bubble played with her, and Alaya was still daydreaming. The only thing that had nothing to do was the glowing thing in front of him, and it was a fool.
After the radiation field was generated, the entire room was enveloped in a faint bluish-white mist, and the angel was right in the middle of it. As she came into contact with the 'frequency modulation energy' in the mist, her entire body began to emit crackling sparks. I couldn't tell if she had been successfully charged, but Alaya, who was beside me, was now as bright as a light bulb. The angel sister looked at her own arm curiously, and then took out a large crystal mask from her personal space and placed it on her head, disguising herself as a desk lamp.
I: "… What are you doing?" Actually, I wanted to say: Holy shit, did this girl get possessed by Shallow Shallow in an instant?!
Alaya's answer to my surprised question through our mental connection was especially honest. "Brother Monarch, Matriarch Lin Xue said that in order to increase her presence, she must learn how to act cute in front of you. Does this count as acting cute?"
Does this count as acting cute? This counts as maliciously acting cute! My face instantly flushed with blood because of how cute she was. This was something that I couldn't even ridicule, look at, or comment on … acting cute! As expected, apart from when I was working, this angel sister was just a mascot for me to have fun with?
As Alaya entertained himself by the side, I was still observing the angel in front of me to see if there were any changes. It had already been fifteen minutes since the 'charging' started, and apart from a slight increase in brightness, there were no other changes. According to my senses, the energy in her body was indeed much higher than before, and this increase was stable. Perhaps she had successfully stored a portion of the energy in her body? I had an optimistic guess. However, this energy didn't seem to be able to activate the consciousness of the angel. She just stood there in a daze as always. When I turned off the energy field, the angel simply turned into a bright light bulb.
Little Bubble noticed the changes on this side and immediately rushed over with a cheer. She hung onto the angel's body like an octopus and rubbed against her chest while whimpering. The Mercury Lamp, which was finally released, rushed out of the room without saying anything. She might have gone to complain to her elder sister.
"Still no reaction." I pinched the angel's wings. "Are you really going to turn into a kite?"
— — and then become a Bound Angel from then on, while Alaya would gloriously obtain the title of Unbound Angel?
This was the second half of my sentence that I didn't say out loud, as I felt that it would be too strange. Otherwise, Alaya would definitely take it seriously and write down Cordless Angel's name in his database.
"Oh right!" Looking at Little Bubble happily tossing and turning on the angel's body, I suddenly decided to change the excitement. Thus, I patted Little Bubble's little head. "Baby, can you take out the things that you got from this elder sister?"
Little Bubble tilted her head and looked at me. "Chirp? Wugu ¥% @ #% ¥# #% # @! "
"What did she say?" I asked Ji Shanshan, who was tidying up her toys not far away.
Ji Shanshan said without hesitation, "If you provide Big Sister Jill with three imperial feasts every day and respectfully address her as the great Queen, I will give you the Holy Light Sword and magic ball."
"From tomorrow onwards, you will only have cornbread and pickled vegetables. Also, you are not allowed to use my money to buy new clothes."
"I'm very sorry. Actually, she wants Alaya's feathers because Little Bubble likes things that glow. However, Alaya never lets her move her wings casually, so this has become the little princess' biggest wish. You can add punctuation to the above."
I turned my head to look at Alaya. The angel sister instantly shivered and hugged her wings with tears in her eyes. "Only … You can only pull out one, and you can't pull out the tip of the wing. It's very sensitive there …"
"Alright, alright. Don't you know how many feathers you've shed by crashing into trees?" I waved my hand in front of the angel sister and grabbed her wing while she was still in a daze. Then, I quickly pulled out a feather that was already sticking up. Based on my experience, this kind of feather was about to fall off.
"Ugh — —" The angel sister shivered slightly. After realizing that I had only pulled out a feather that was about to fall off, she scratched her head and had a strange expression on her face. "That's strange. It's itchy, but why does it feel so comfortable?"
I said, "… You couldn't have awakened something strange, right!?"
Little Bubble happily received Alaya's feather. Then, she handed over the Holy Light Sword and arcane magic ball that she had snatched earlier to me. Then, she hugged the long feather and went to play with it. I weighed the two items in my hands. They felt as light as a feather. They were completely formed from light and energy, but they had a tangible texture to them. The Holy Light Sword had the same style as the single-handed sword that Alaya usually used. However, the sword lacked many complicated runes. The blurry glowing blade indicated that it was a one-time consumable item. As for the arcane magic ball, it was even stranger. It should have been an explosive item that would explode immediately after it left one's hand. However, Little Bubble had done something to it and it had completely solidified into something that resembled a crystal ball. I had discussed this mystical phenomenon with Sandora in the morning. Sandora felt that it might have something to do with Little Bubble's special talent. That child was an expert in distorting information. For example, she could make her whereabouts untraceable and hard to track down. If this were to expand, her range of influence might even extend to other things that she had come into contact with. This arcane magic ball's information must have already been modified by that super evolved little computer. Since Little Bubble felt that it was a toy, it really had become a toy.
Perhaps I should test just how powerful Little Bubble's abilities were when I had the time. Although the Schilling computer's defensive capabilities were usually quite strong, that was only possible with powerful shields. There had never been a situation like Little Bubble's, where she was able to "fulfill her wishes" against certain types of attacks just because she "wanted" them to. However, I put this matter aside for now and focused on the Missing Angel in front of me.
"Here, this is your item. Haven't you always wanted it?" I raised the Holy Light sword and waved it in front of her, trying to get her attention. "Cough, cough. Just move your fingers. I charged you just now, so there should be some changes, right?"
I waited patiently. One minute passed. Three minutes passed. The Missing Angel was still floating in the air like a fixed shadow. But just as I was about to give up, she finally moved a little. She tilted her head slightly and tried to raise her arm. This movement was so slow that I thought I could hear a squeaking sound coming from her body. But in the end, she succeeded. She extended her hand in front of me and made a begging gesture.
The moment I handed the Holy Light sword to her, the Missing Angel's body seemed to flicker slightly. She gripped the sword tightly and slowly hugged it in front of her chest. Her movements were like a mother hugging her child. Then, I saw an incredible scene. This ancient remnant soul that should not have any consciousness bowed slightly to me and nodded gently.
I asked in surprise, "Are you expressing your gratitude?"
The other party nodded with difficulty as if she could completely understand what I said and gave an accurate response.
Success! It was actually this simple?! I was overjoyed. I never thought that the method to make this Missing Angel move was this simple. I just had to give her some energy and then fulfill her wish! Thinking about this, I took out another item in my hand: the translucent, translucent arcane magic ball. "Here, this is also yours. I'm sorry, my daughter stole something from you …"
However, just as I was about to give this item to her, Alaya suddenly said, "Wait a moment, Brother Monarch!"
I looked at Alaya strangely. He pointed at the magic ball in my hand and said, "If you give this to her, will she immediately ascend to the heavens because all her wishes are fulfilled?" I paused in surprise. I instinctively felt that this explanation was unreliable, but then I thought about it. Damn it, what if it was true?
And so, as I looked at the Missing Angel who was right in front of me, I felt like I was in a dilemma. Although Alaya's idea of "ascending to the heavens" seemed unreliable, when I thought about it, this Missing Angel had continued to exist for such a long time after leaving the Mirage Tower's energy supply. This in itself was something that couldn't be explained clearly. Who knew if it was because of her stubbornness that she had persisted for so long? Not only that, after taking back her sword, she showed obvious signs of coming to life. It was obvious that the Missing Angel's vitality was directly affected by her stubbornness. In that case, what would happen after this stubbornness was completely satisfied?
"I'm sorry, I can't give this to you for now." I thought about it and decided that I would rather believe it than not, so I waved my hand at the Missing Angel. She still extended her arm in my direction with a stubborn expression. To be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that she had a pair of holy wings and that her body was brimming with a comfortable Holy Light, her current appearance would be quite strange. She was full of resentment, faceless, and was clinging to her outstretched arm. Just these three characteristics combined together made me think of over twenty horror movies just by looking at her profile.
After I stored the arcane magic orb in my personal space, the Missing Angel finally lowered her arm. Perhaps it was because she had lost the focus of her attention. Right now, her logic seemed to be linear and extremely short-sighted. But even so, I could still sense a depressed and disappointed emotion coming from her. This might have been a misconception, but I still explained apologetically, "Don't be too depressed. It's mainly because I don't know what the conditions are for you to maintain your form. I'm afraid that if I give this to you, you'll just disappear."
I hadn't expected to receive an answer from her, but to my pleasant surprise, the Missing Angel actually responded. She lightly flapped her wings, and the light on her body flickered a few times. Although she didn't express agreement, she at least indicated that she understood what I was saying. Seeing this scene, I was happy. Perhaps after my accidental encounter, the Missing Angel could already communicate with her.
I pulled the Missing Angel to the chair next to me and spent a lot of effort to guide her to sit down. After that, I sat opposite her and tried to speak in a friendly manner, "Now we may be able to communicate. First of all, none of us are hostile to you. We know what you and your companions are guarding, and what you are guarding is also our most precious thing. Although there has been a misunderstanding between the two sides, I hope that you can understand. As long as the situation permits, we hope to be friends with you. Do you understand? "
The Missing Angel slowly flapped her wings, still neither agreeing nor disagreeing, only showing that she was listening.
"Alright, I'll take it that you understand, or I'll just be talking to myself." I scratched my head, thinking that I could normally communicate with Pandora, that taciturn gourd, so how could a mere shadow be a challenge? "Everyone is still trying to find a way to communicate with you. You don't seem to be able to speak, but I feel that I will soon find a way to understand you. We are people of the Empire, do you still remember? Schilling, Xiling Empire … Alright, it seems that you don't respond to this term either. What about the Apostles? I don't remember either … There is another term, Abyss. Do you remember the Abyss? "
A strong reaction that I hadn't expected occurred. The Missing Angel, who didn't even respond to the term "Xiling Empire", instantly displayed a strong impulse when she heard the term "Abyss". The light on her body instantly intensified by several times, followed by a violent burst of electric arcs from her hands, as if she was preparing for battle. I hurriedly pressed down on her hands and suppressed her energy reaction.
"Alright, alright, calm down. There is no Abyss. There are no enemies here." I pressed down on the Missing Angel until I felt that her hands were no longer releasing arcane energy. "It seems that you have the basic ability to communicate, and you still remember your enemies."
What followed was a difficult and limited attempt at communication. In the end, I still couldn't hear any response from her. I tried flipping through the dictionary, indicating characters, identifying patterns, and other methods that I could think of, but all of them failed. I asked her about the Illusory Tower, and she could definitely understand me, but she completely refused to answer. I couldn't be sure if she really didn't know, or if she was consciously keeping it a secret. However, this attempt at communication wasn't completely without progress. At least I knew that this Missing Angel had a certain level of thinking ability, could understand what others said, and would occasionally make active actions. Although she hadn't revealed any of her secrets so far, she was already quite quick in responding to my words, such as now.
"My name is Chen Jun, do you remember it?" I said.
The Missing Angel would shake her wings slightly, indicating that she understood, and then nod after a few seconds of delay.
This was the level of communication. Although there wasn't much progress, I felt that at least in a certain sense, this Missing Angel and I were already familiar with each other. At least she was willing to respond to my voice, and didn't show any hostility, right?
Time passed quickly. When I ended my communication with the Missing Angel, I noticed that it was already nightfall outside the window. I didn't know when the sky turned dark. It might be due to the brightness of Alaya and the Missing Angel. It seemed that I had overcharged them previously. Alaya was still fine, as she could control the brightness of her own body, but this Missing Angel couldn't. Until she used up the excess energy in her body, she would probably continue to shine like an 80-watt energy-saving light bulb.
"Ah Jun, hurry up and come down for dinner. Why are you still here …" Just as I was figuring out how to turn off the light bulb, the door was suddenly pushed open by Shallow Shallow. Her cheerful voice stopped abruptly, and then she stared at the glowing object in the middle of the room. "Wow, Ah Jun, you finally found her switch?"
"Stop fooling around. She overcharged." I ruffled Shallow Shallow's hair, and briefly told her about the results of my communication that afternoon. Shallow Shallow immediately revealed an extremely happy expression. "Wow! Ah Jun is really amazing. But let's hurry up and eat. Sister Chen Qian is cooking today, and there's your favorite dish, although it's made with ingredients from this world. Oh right, should we bring along this especially bright one? I feel that it's more appropriate for her to eat with us, or else it would seem inauthentic … Oh, she doesn't seem to have a mouth, so forget it. "
"…" Before I even opened my mouth, this brat's logic had already sped back and forth several times?!
When we went down for dinner, I announced the new changes that occurred to the Missing Angel. Sandora and Icetis both expressed great interest in it, and they praised my strong affinity and ability to discover things. Only Lin Xue thought that it also proved that a certain someone had a strong foundation in hunting down all female targets. From Missy's point of view, the Missing Angel, whose chest was almost as flat as Ji Shanshan's, could also be classified as a female creature. That was why she was successfully tamed by a certain someone …
"That's it," Missy pointed at me sternly at the dining table. "You blockhead, you have finally included lighting equipment and kites in your hunting range. I originally thought that birds were your bottom line."
I picked up a piece of stir-fried meat and stuffed it into Missy's mouth. "Even eating can't stop your mouth."
If it was in the past, Lin Xue would never accept this kind of intimate action of feeding on the dining table. She would most likely run to rinse her mouth while shouting "Disgusting" (in reality, she was waiting for the blush on her face to fade). But now, other than a little blush, Missy is already used to it. The only change is that there is now a mouth on the dining table that is bound to Lin Xue — Xiaoxue came over with a smile.
"Dad, what about me?"
"Eat by yourself!" Lin Xue and I pushed the brat back with an unprecedented tacit understanding. Then, we smiled knowingly.
Very good, it already feels like a husband and wife …
"En, speaking of which, is Lin not back yet?" I looked around. There was an empty spot on the dining table. The five Protoss cops who always gathered to eat were obviously missing a corner. Lin wasn't here.
"Her? She is most likely still in the dracon residential area, "Icetis said casually." The Silver Dragon named Cha 'er seems to be staying here for two days. The draconians are holding a banquet for their kin. Both Shakina and Sona went to attend. That's not bad. Originally, I was worried that the dragons in this world are stubborn and disobedient. I didn't expect the two races to be so harmonious. It seems that I don't have to urge Lin to go to the Kingdom of Giant Dragons to receive divine punishment. "
This female pervert must have said something very serious just now!
However, just as we were chatting about the draconians, a dazzling light suddenly shone in the dining hall. Lin's figure appeared out of thin air. She actually returned.
And she had a strange expression on her face.
