Gu's sudden words confused the Black Cat.
Looking at Gu's silence, the Black Cat could not help but ask, "What do you mean by what you said just now?"
Gu lowered its head and showed a struggling expression.
From her standpoint, she should have decisively killed the fetus in her womb and fearlessly welcomed death.
However, she could not do it.
Even if the fetus in her womb was not what she wanted, half of the blood in it came from her.
What she said just now, "A long time ago, I was the same as you," was her compromise that was loosening.
Until now, she was still a little crazy.
Originally, she only needed to wait for one or two days and she would have the strength to kill herself. However, she was pregnant with the Black Cat's child.
She resisted the urge to use the accumulated strength on the Black Cat's face and slowly raised her head. She did not answer the question, "You are a beast."
"Huh?"
The Black Cat was stunned for a moment. It was not angry but laughed foolishly.
That look almost made Gu want to slap the black cat's face.
"Thank you for not doing anything to him or her." The Black Cat looked at Gu's abdomen silently.
"…"
Gu was stunned.
It turned out that this bastard had seen through her intentions.
She was silent and the Black Cat did not speak either. It was looking at her slightly bulging abdomen.
After a long time, Gu finally changed the topic to the Black Cat's question.
"In the past, I was the same as you. I was also a spiritual beast."
"Huh?"
The Black Cat was shocked.
Gu ignored the Black Cat's reaction and said coldly, "You were an individual born from the life force of that human. As for me, my nature is the same. However, to be more precise, I was created by a human."
"You didn't pour any emotions into it. You created me as if I was a simple tool."
"This kind of thing was not difficult for the humans of that era."
"As long as imagination was integrated into life force, the humans of that era could create something as small as a grain of sand or as fine as a blood vessel in a living being."
"Perhaps this was the reason why …"
Gu lowered its head and looked at its slightly bulging abdomen. Its expression was complicated.
Black Cat was shocked. What Gu was talking about was the ability of telekinesis users to materialize objects. However, it was not as simple as what Gu had described.
Generally speaking, it wasn't easy for a telekinesis user to create an object from nothing, let alone creating more than one object.
In layman's terms, it meant that there was not enough memory in the brain. It was just like a hard drive. From the very beginning, there was a limit to the amount of space that could be stored.
Shocked, Black Cat also caught a few important points in Gu's words. However, it didn't realize that the information Gu was talking about was the direction that Law and the others had been exploring, which was the truth of the Dark Continent.
"If you're talking about the past, then you're still … a psychic beast now?"
Gu was silent for a while and asked, "Do you think that a creature made of mud can be a complete life?"
The Black Cat shook its head.
"Life force is equivalent to soil," Gu said in a cold tone.
Black Cat's body shook slightly. It understood the meaning of Gu's words.
Now, it was equivalent to a creature made of mud. It was not a complete life.
Gu looked at the stunned Black Cat and said, "But I have already broken free from this layer of restraint and become a real life."
That kind of words, that kind of tone, invisibly set up an invisible barrier in front of the black cat.
A psychic beast made of mud and a complete life form was more like a wall than a barrier.
Black Cat subconsciously took a step back and lowered its head. No one knew what it was thinking.
Gu looked at the Black Cat taking a step back. The coldness in its eyes eased a little. Then, it gently stroked its abdomen and sighed in its heart.
How did the little life in its abdomen pass through that wall …
Now that things had come to this, what was the point of thinking about those things?
Gu looked up at the Black Cat and said in a low voice, "I know very well what that human wants. I will give him what he wants. But in exchange … I want to give birth to the child."
Gu looked at its abdomen as it said that.
She was not an ordinary magical beast, nor was she a human who was slow in sensing.
Even though there was a layer of her abdomen, she could clearly see the growing life in her abdomen.
Hearing Gu's words, the Black Cat suddenly raised its head and took a step forward. It seemed to want to redeem its previous cowardice.
"I promise you, I won't let anything happen to you!"
Gu did not say anything.
She believed in the Black Cat's resolute attitude on this matter. However, she did not think that the Black Cat could go against that human.
After all, that human was the owner of the Black Cat.
With that layer of relationship, the right to decide would never be in the Black Cat's hands.
However, as long as the Black Cat was there, there was a possibility that the child could be saved.
"It will take about a month to give birth to the child."
"So fast?"
"Yes."
"A month, a month … …"
The Black Cat murmured softly. It was hard to tell whether it was excitement or fear in its heart.
At this moment, Gu looked in a certain direction in the room.
The moment she looked over, a door appeared out of thin air and was opened.
Law walked into the room from outside the door.
Gu was not surprised at all and asked, "Do you agree or not?"
Law closed the door behind him, then sat cross-legged on the ground and said calmly, "Let me think about it."
Gu snorted coldly but did not say anything more. The Black Cat looked at Law vigilantly, as if guarding against a thief.
Law could not hear the conversation between Gu and the Black Cat in the room, but he could read the conversation between Gu and the Black Cat by reading their lips.
Thanks to the years he spent with the Black Cat, Law was able to use his lip-reading skills on Gu.
And Gu seemed to be mentally prepared. So, half of what she said to the Black Cat was said to Law, which was also a bait thrown out.
The life in her womb had changed her fundamentally.
After a while, Law looked at Gu and asked, "Before I give you an answer, can you tell me if there are any descendants of the human who created you?"
"Descendants?"
Gu sneered, slowly raised its palm, pointed at Law, and said, "Aren't you one?"
"… …"
Law narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "You know that's not what I want to ask. Okay, I'll change the question. Are there any descendants of the human who created you left on this dark continent?"
"Yes."
"Is that so … …"
Law's eyes flashed.
Gu looked at the strong desire for knowledge revealed by the human in front of him. It was as if he saw the shadow of Otofuri again.
"There are many dangerous and terrible things in the dark continent, but in my opinion, the real terrible things are hidden here … …" Gu raised his hand and put it on his head.
Law looked at Gu silently.
