Volume 1 The Beginning of the Youth Chapter 12 The Escape Was Unsuccessful
Ling Ye fell to the ground in an instant, and his expression was still full of astonishment.
When he got out of between the big guy's feet, he thought he could escape, but he didn't expect the other party to react so quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he was caught again.
But now, it didn't know what it was nervous about, and it panicked like this, and would rather give up its arms than quickly move away from itself.
Ling Ye was secretly happy for a while, and was about to get up and continue to escape, but his eyes suddenly glanced at the ground, and then looked around, only to find that the arm that should have fallen with him had disappeared.
Only then did he react, remembering that he had never heard the sound of a large piece of steel falling.
Ling Ye hurriedly looked at the steel puppet in the distance, but found that it had lost its arms and hung its head and stopped motionless.
After a closer look, he found that the bright light in the big guy's eyes had dimmed and disappeared, as if he had lost his energy.
He was shocked, but he was more ecstatic, and he didn't care what the cause of this situation was—as long as it was in his own favor.
Ling Ye, who got up, cautiously took one last look at the puppet that was no longer moving, and then was about to turn around and slip away.
As he walked, he pondered whether to save the wolf cub again, but soon gave up on the idea.
"Woohoo"
Around the corner of the hallway, the screaming little guy suddenly rushed out.
He was so happy that he was about to pick up the little one.
The next moment.
His face froze as the witch came out.
"What's going on?"
The approaching witch glanced back and forth, and asked, her tone unusually cold.
"Hey, hey, that ......"
"Don't know?" the witch raised her voice, interrupting the boy abruptly.
Giving him a cold look, the witch raised her hand and patted it lightly, then walked over to the still puppet.
The witch took a closer look and noticed that the surface of the puppet was condensed with a faint layer of frost.
With a frown, she went straight to the puppet's belly, her fingers moving flexibly and regularly in several places nearby, and a muffled whisper came out of her mouth.
Ling Ye, who was quietly approaching, was watching this scene curiously, and then saw a black box pop out of the puppet's abdomen.
The box was opened by the witch, revealing a fist-sized hedron inside. It's just that the hedron is dull, and there are a few cracks on the surface.
The witch glared back at Ling Ye, who was full of innocence, and without saying anything, she quickly closed the box and put it back.
After a few minutes, a steel golem stepped out of nowhere.
"Master, may I ask ......"
"Move to No. 5 and experiment No. 1. ”
"Okay, master. ”
Looking at the puppet that was moving its brother and the witch who was walking towards the "bathroom", Ling Ye's eyes looked a little erratic.
The witch stopped, turned to look at Midnight.
"Okay, okay, I'm here. ”
Midnight hurriedly followed the witch.
When she reached the pool, the witch looked at the dry pool and saw at a glance that there was something left in the pool.
"Huh?"
The witch's hand grabbed and pulled in the void.
In the middle of the pool, several objects rose and flew quickly in front of the witch.
"Eh, that's not mine. ”
Ling Ye looked at it, and his first reaction was to speak first. It was two objects, a gun and a knife.
With a wave of the witch's hand, everything arrived in front of Ling Ye, and he took it.
She then turned away, and said:
"Come with me, let's talk. ”
"Okay, but can I get the next piece of clothing?"
Ling Ye suddenly had a glow, and hurriedly followed naked, and glanced back with palpitations when he went out.
......
In a laboratory, Ling Ye, who was already dressed in a white coat, sat face to face with a witch.
The little guy was lying on the table close to Ling Ye, his tail swept away, and he looked lazy, but his little eyes looked at the silent two from time to time, and his expressions were different for the two.
"You ask. ”
The witch placed a book on the table in front of her, and the staff was on her right hand. She stroked her chin with one hand, flipped the pages from time to time with the other, and finally spoke.
"How long has it been since I fell unconscious?" Ling Ye asked calmly.
"One day. ”
Two words popped out of the witch's mouth.
"What's your name?"
Midnight tried to ease the dull and tense atmosphere in the room first.
......
He tentatively shouted: "Don't say this, then what else can you talk about?"
"You can just call me Starry. ”
The boy was a little stunned when he saw the witch, and waited for nearly half a minute before he came up with such a casual answer.
It's just that as soon as he heard the name that this was more like a code name, the corners of his mouth twitched.
The witch explained: "I don't have a name yet. Star Witch's name is not something that can be chosen casually, and I have to wait until I have established my own main star before I can have my own official name. ”
Seeing the other party's tense and serious expression, Ling Ye was stunned, and asked in disbelief: "Then what do other people usually call you?
"Only a witch who cultivates astrology is like this, and among the witches there is only a teacher besides me. Other witches and clansmen would call me 'Child of the Stars'. ”
She continued to explain very patiently, seeing that Ling Ye was about to speak, and then said, "I know you, your name is Ling Ye." ”
After answering, Fanxing gestured to Ling Ye with his eyes and asked him to return to the topic.
When Ling Ye heard the last sentence, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and he twisted his eyebrows and asked:
"You know?"
Finding that he had missed his mouth, Fanxing hurriedly lowered his little head and covered his expression with the spire of his round hat, leaving only the sound of flipping books from time to time in the room.
"Where did you know that?"
"Did we meet by chance, or did you know I was coming?"
"What is the pool for?"
Ling Ye sensed a hint of conspiracy, and quickly questioned excitedly.
Fanxing finally stopped what he was doing, raised his head, looked at Ling Ye with his eyes, and said softly:
"The teacher is the most powerful soothsayer in the world, she calculated your arrival a month ago, and it is not difficult to know your name. ”
After a pause, she continued,
"As for the pool, it's for you to develop your potential, so that you don't die too quickly. ”
Ling Ye listened suspiciously until the last sentence. He jumped to his feet:
"What died too fast?!"
"You don't want to go back?"
"Yes, but what does it have to do with that?"
"You were sent by Qiankun Zhu, so naturally you have to go back through it. Now although the beads have recognized you as the Lord, it is a trick after all. You still need to pass the test of the machine spirit before it can be truly used by you. ”
After the stars finished explaining, they stopped paying attention to Midnight.
She picked up the staff in her right hand and pointed it at Ling Ye, who was still in the clouds, and whispered quickly in her mouth:
"Destiny is coming,
Following the old covenant,
Breaking the boundaries of time and space,
In the name of the stars,
Formal request to the person in front of you,
Drop off the established quiz. ”
As the witch thought about it, Ling Ye could feel a flash of silver light on her forehead, and she immediately fell into darkness.
Fanxing glanced at Ling Ye, who was lying on the table, and stood up to his nervous hair, facing the little wolf cub who got up and wanted to pounce, and said lightly:
"You're too young, and although you have good talent, if you want to beat me, you'd better cultivate for a few hundred more years. As for...... Whether he will be okay or not depends on his own ability and creation. ”
With that, Miss Witch paid no attention to the little one, put down her staff, and read the book back to herself.
