Chapter 1475: Beginning in the Night of the Curse (33)
"Look what meow we've found this time?" a young leopard man picked up a pile of debris from the bottom of the sea. Most of them are discarded waste products from the ordinary life of human beings, but when they reach the hands of orcs, especially these teenagers who make a living by picking up rags, they become treasures.
From the garbage heap, he found the sludge-covered freezer - or rather, it wasn't a freezer anymore, it was more like an old iron can covered with rust and barnacles.
However, the old jar is still functioning normally. After more than two hundred years, it has finally been unblocked.
Intense cold air erupts from the cracks of the tin can.
As the tin can opened, the young man who was so frightened that he shrank behind the stone came over to take a look at it again.
To his surprise, there was something in the tin can. More precisely, there is a creature in it.
White, faceless, small fluffy fur balls.
The leopard man boy who picked up the rags had never seen such a strange creature, and he thought he had seen a hallucination, so he subconsciously rubbed his eyes.
Just as he finished rubbing his eyes and tried to see clearly, the white furry creature had already turned into a baby. A leopard man baby with weird blue hair.
It looks exactly like the leopard man boy who picks up rags, and is "the same race". The baby had just woken up from the freezing cold, shrunken and shivering, accompanied by a very low, feeble sob.
"Hey, let's see what kind of meow is here?" The leopard man boy who picked up the rags suddenly felt pity for the baby, and went over to pick up the baby: "Little brother, who abandoned you in such a place?"
The baby was crying, and he knew nothing about his origins.
"I know. I know meow. "In this world, life is getting harder and harder, and there are more and more abandoned babies meowing - but don't worry, I'll take care of your meow." From this day forward, you are my brother, Palamides. "
The baby weeps, and he knows nothing about the world.
Then there was darkness, a darkness in the midst of tranquility.
"I see, is it so? "Only in the endless distance somewhere, that mysterious voice was remembered again.
"Although there is no direct evidence to prove everything, it can be inferred that it is basically possible. The mysterious voice was saying something incomprehensible.
"You passed. At least you're not lying. I still don't know much about you, but I'm sure you can entrust everything to an honest man. "
Palamides was dizzy and overwhelmed. He couldn't even tell what was going on around him at this moment. It was as if he was having one nightmare after another, but when he woke up from one dream, he immediately forgot the contents of the previous dream. And so on and so forth, until all the dreams have been traversed once.
And he, until now, is still confused, not knowing what happened to him.
"Now that you've passed—" the ethereal voice in the endless distance of darkness continued, "then you're entitled to it all. Come and claim your reward. "
Palamides suddenly felt a burst of warmth envelop her body.
No, no, there should be a warm stream coming from the bottom of the mattress. The gelatinous object that enveloped the whole body of the leopard warrior had excellent heat transfer performance, and that kind of warmth spread evenly inside the gel in an instant, and at the same time, it also spread throughout the whole body of Paramides.
Palamides, who had been grabbed by the gel-like mattress and couldn't move for half a minute, gradually felt free. Because the gelatinous object that enveloped his whole body was "thawing", melting, and flowing down under the influence of gravity.
Palamides tried to move his body and climbed out of the sticky gel mattress. In fact, his movement was not as difficult as he imagined, and the gel slipped away from the big cat's body in an instant, and it didn't even stick to his hair.
However, in front of him, there was still a dark world. He came back to his senses and remembered that he had been trapped in this little dark room with no way out, and that he had almost been overwhelmed by the gel mattress just now. He seemed to have had a lot of nightmares just now, but now that he woke up, he couldn't even remember any of them.
So, now? What the hell is Rosetta up to? Isn't there any new trick other than to play tricks on him with that gelatinous object?
However, the big cat rejoiced too soon. Sure enough, there was new movement in this dark secret room.
There was a sudden glow on the ground, a light that seemed to be emitted by a lamp embedded in the floor, pointing the way. The light stretched straight into the distance, to the edge that Paramides could see.
It was supposed to be a secret room, as Palamides had just explored in the dark here, and had confirmed that. But what about this light that stretched straight into infinity? Could it be that some secret door in the chamber was opened?
As suspicious as it was, this might be the only chance Palamides had to escape from the chamber, and how could the big cat miss it.
He climbed out of the hard bed (which had no mattress anymore) and walked all the way in the dark, following the path indicated by the light. He remembered that he was naked, but (fortunately) it was pitch black, so Palamides didn't feel any shame. I just hope that he walks along this light and doesn't suddenly plunge headlong into a street full of people
However, things turned out completely different from what Palamides had imagined. He walked along the light, but the light seemed to stretch into the never-ending distance, and no matter how he went, he could not reach the end. Palamides, who was already tired and hungry, inevitably exhausted his strength as he walked, and couldn't help but sit down and rest.
Damn, I know that things can't be so simple, and the other party can't just let Palamides go. It's a good thing now, the leopard warrior doesn't even have a place to settle down at this time, waiting for this kind of ethereal, not knowing the direction and not knowing the end. Palamides thought it was some kind of corridor, and tried to fumble for the walls on both sides of the path of light, but was astonished to find that he could not touch anything—either because the corridor was very wide, or because it was not a corridor at all!
Switchback?
Moving on?
Or do you deviate from the guidance of the path of light and continue your search from the side?
I always feel that every choice is dangerous, and there are too many uncertainties. Palamides was even more dizzy now, as if his brain had just been juiced by some machine, and he couldn't calm down and think rationally.
Tired. I'm so hungry. It's cold. Naked, he walked in the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, but he was gradually swallowed up by the darkness, as if he could not see even the last hope. He was half-kneeling on the ground panting, and continued to move forward with a half-walk-half-crawl, but he knew in his heart that he could not go too far.
The path of light also seems to be getting darker. Or is it actually Palamitys's own physical strength that began to stop, and his vision became darker and darker?
Sleepy. It looked like my eyelids were about to fall off. Thinking also began to pause, intuition began to be swallowed up by the cold, and consciousness became more and more blurred.
Not anymore
Darkness engulfed him.
And then—
In that next moment, an astonishing light suddenly spread out in front of his eyes. He had closed his eyes because of fatigue, but now he seemed to have to close his eyes because the light was too dazzling. But as he tried to adapt to the light, and as he saw his surroundings in the bright light, he found himself in a bathroom.
What's going on?
Is this some kind of hallucination?
But hallucinations? Why is this an illusion?
Palamides tried to clear his mind, but he couldn't understand why he had the strange idea of "seeing a hallucination".
This is obviously true. Although his consciousness was a little blurred, he clearly remembered that he had just gone to the bathroom to take a shower.
Own bathroom at home.
That's right, he must be in his own home.
"Palamy, Palamy!" someone seemed to be calling outside the bathroom. Woman's voice. Palamides was of course most familiar with the voice, for it was the voice of his wife, Vivien.
"What the hell are you still doing in the bathroom? You've been taking a shower for two hours!" Vivien scolded outside the bathroom, "If you wash it again, even the cat hair on your body will fall off!"
"Oh, wait," Paramides hurriedly grabbed a bath towel and put it around his crotch, "I'll be out soon." "
He hurried out of the bathroom and saw a truly stunning sight. Vivien was lying on her bed, in her fiery bathing suit, waiting for the Leopard Warrior.
"Hey, baby. The woman smiled sequely at her husband, "Do you want to come and play tonight?"
"Uh, why are you all of a sudden" Palamides was a little stunned.
"Oh, please~" Vivien smiled charmingly, and stretched out a hand to make a teasing gesture to Palamides: "You've been out for a while, and the children aren't home tonight, how can we not spend a good time together?"
"Hmph—" The big cat made a wicked expression, "You may be right." But don't you have a lot of work to do lately? King Arthur is said to have assigned you a very important piece of research, though I don't know. It's really okay not to do your important work and just make out with me?"
"No problem. Vivien smiled at her husband, "We still have a long time to go, and we can postpone work until any time." But you, an orc, have a much shorter life than a succubus, and I don't know when I'm going to lose you, so how can I not make the most of this youth?"
Speaking of this, Palamides couldn't help but frown in alarm.
"You're not Vivien. Who the hell are you?"
