Chapter 54: Ripple

"What did you do to the needle wheel beetle, a 'monster' who doesn't look like a human or a beast......

Elaine fell asleep while watching me, but he woke up from his seat in the commotion just now. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Watching everything from the sidelines, he seemed to see things I didn't know from a different perspective and witnessed the whole process. He picked up the injured needle beetle and, with hatred in his eyes, threw the seed hidden in his cuff towards me.

…… The next second, I lost consciousness.

No, a black mass stood in front of me and took the black seed bullet.

"'Black glow'? ”

Elaine's thin dry lips spat out unwilling words, the roots of her teeth clenched viciously, and her eyes flashed with a fierce light to witness the black substance that suddenly stood between us.

The black substance seemed to flow down my back and feet, like a thick fog drifting through the air and settling around me. It seemed to have self-awareness, and in my most critical moments, it turned into a thin wall to block the projectiles that Elaine shot from her cuffs.

It also makes a clattering sound, grinding and cutting the seeds it captures into its body, enjoying the beauty of the flesh of its prey, and swinging like a dance.

At the same time, I felt an unknown taste in my mouth, and I tasted bitter even though there was nothing in my mouth. Is it because the taste of the black substance is connected to my tongue?

I couldn't have understood, because I had never communicated with it, if it weren't for the previous signs. I might be taken aback when it pops up like it is now.

The black substance has consciousness, and that consciousness even has a certain IQ. Sensing that the "seeds" it eats contain ingredients that cannot be absorbed too much, it only chews halfway through and throws away some of the residues as if abandoned. I don't care about anyone's feelings at all.

"You don't know how to control that power, and you can't stop that power when it hurts things around you. ”

Elaine took off her suit jacket and tie to bandage and compress the injured part of the needle beetle to stop the bleeding. Even as he was doing the work at hand, his resolute eyes were always on me and disgusted with me.

The malice implicated the silent black mass, and the frequency of the pulsation gradually intensified.

Black matter only reacts to emotions as far as I can see, especially those that are aggressive and murderous to me. The needle beetle usually stays by my side but does not get hurt because it is timid, it has never had the idea of attacking me, but this time it seems to have the idea of attacking me, why?

Was it influenced by the guy who just quietly appeared at the window?

If the essence of the needle wheel beetle remains the same, then it is the black substance in my body that feels the killing intent of the "mysterious black shadow", and when the defense mechanism is turned on, the needle wheel beetle that stays next to me and is closest to me is inadvertently affected and injured.

Black matter is part of my body, and if I can't control it, the people around me are exposed.

Elaine ...... What's the matter, wow, stop it! ”

Luz woke up.

She crawled out of the hole formed by stacking several quilts. She was wrapped in a slime that was shielded from external movement, and in the faint moonlight outside, she shone transparently. It seems that Luz's envelope has a limited ability to isolate from external interference, and the encyclopedia in her brain shows that she does isolate the sound transmitted through the air medium, but the vibration of geological transmission can still be felt. No wonder, she chose a soft texture and good shock absorption environment to sleep.

She sensed that the atmosphere at the scene was wrong, and saw Elaine, who was wearing a white shirt, put on an attacking posture, and hurriedly asked him to stop. Then she looked at the black substance and the injured needle beetle in front of me, and immediately understood that this was a state of affairs that was difficult to explain in a few words.

***

Luz and I rode on the white giant ants that had built a passenger shed on their backs, their eyes higher than the height of the passengers around them. My head poked out of the shed and looked out at the convergence of people from all over the world, the flow of people in the intricate streets and alleys, and the mouth was intently biting on the dried fish slices.

Unexpectedly, Luz commissioned the local cupboard at some point yesterday evening to make this salty, chewy dried fish fillet in one night.

The ingredients Luz delivered to make the dried fish were taken from the mutant sabertooth shark last night. As for the powder sprinkle that adds multiple layers of texture after being added to the top, it is made by grinding the dorsal fin and other parts.

"Little Heizi, you're getting used to this body. It seems that I can control the 'black substance' in my body to chew food instead of my teeth. ”

I don't quite know when Luz noticed this. Even the notion of at what point in time I gained control is not clear. If you insist on saying when there is more of this change, you can only guess that it is a dream that you encountered before. Ever since that dream came to my mind, and having eaten the "black chef" in my dream, I gradually grasped the trick of using "black matter" instead of teeth.

The trick is to come up with the idea of "eating" from the heart.

As soon as this thought came to me, the black substance turned into sharp teeth in my mouth, diligently tearing the food into my mouth for me.

But this alone cannot complete the control of the "black matter", and there are still too many uncertainties about the black matter in my body at present...... The danger of the unknown seems unusual to others, like the Komoda dragon lizard that inadvertently lost a leg, the injured needle wheel beetle, and the hateful Elaine...... The fingertips that hurt because of me.

"Hey, do you want to eat some, Bebel?"

"Is Luz sympathetic to me by doing this? ”

"Don't forget it. ”

"Whew, who said I don't want to. I want it!"

Bebel stretched out his arms and struggled to snatch the dried fish from Luz's hand, his cheeks puffing out in disbelief, and the salty taste of the fish fillet silently in his mouth.

Last night, Beibel ran to the hotel alone to party, I don't know if she was drunk and bold, she didn't even know that she unconsciously left the white-faced red-robed robot to protect her.
