Volume 1 The Beginning of Everything Chapter 83 Spirit Creature
If you put aside the tired and weak demeanor, the cat in Liao Yu's arms is completely an extremely cute and cute gray British shorthair.
"Liao Yu, you also like cats."
Chen Siyu jumped up and took out a few bottles of yogurt from the refrigerator and sat down.
"Yes, cats are so cute, otherwise so many people are cat slaves. But I'm too lazy, usually take care of myself is good, at most is to go to some coffee shops with my wife to pet small animals, but she prefers dogs. ”
Liao Yu said as he held the cat in the crook of his arm and teased him.
With the help of hugging and stroking the cat, Liao Yu obviously felt that the cat's entire body was in an abnormal state of emaciation, and there was already some loose skin under the original plump belly and round cheeks, which was not like a trace of gradual weight loss over time, but a bit like the skin laxity caused by rapid weight loss methods such as liposuction.
According to Chen, the cat suddenly began to become emotionally abnormal a week ago, unwilling to eat anything, and often screamed without warning, which can occur day and night. However, the medical equipment of the pet store was checked several times and no problems were found, and the kind beauty shopkeeper even took the cat to the famous pet hospital to see, but the diagnosis given by the other party is still normal, and the cat's abnormal behavior may be due to emotional problems caused by some recent events, just observe more.
"But Sister Li checked all the monitoring during this time, and she didn't have a clue at all, she didn't fight with other animals, she didn't eat anything strange, I don't know why she kept screaming every day, and she hid in the corner of the hut and didn't want to move."
Chen Siyu leaned over and touched the cat's cheek, bending over to tease it. Since the cat was in Liao Yu's arms at the moment, the faint fragrance of the girl on Chen Siyu's body continued to enter his nose, making him tilt his head back slightly with some suspicion.
"So you just take it home, don't be afraid that your parents won't agree."
Professor Chen sat to the side, patted Chen Siyu's back from behind, and asked Chen Siyu to sit up straight and speak, which was regarded as relieving Liao Yu from the side.
While Liao Yu followed them to talk, he used his mental power to carefully probe the cat's mental state. It's also a coincidence, if Liao Yu hadn't learned to master the mental power manipulation method of distracting meditation anytime and anywhere in the world of Dinosaur Island, he really wouldn't have discovered the abnormality of this cat.
Judging from the fluctuations of its soul, there is a very faint circle of gray marks near the neck of its soul body, and this circle of gray marks is obviously the culprit that causes the cat's recent malaise and body thinness, and of course there is no reason for it by means of modern medicine.
Liao Yu divided his spiritual power into five spiritual threads and probed towards the neck of the cat's soul, after experiencing the experience and torture of the three worlds, Liao Yu's control of spiritual power was comparable to that of an ordinary great magician. However, behind this rapid promotion is the experience of almost nine deaths, even on the least dangerous dinosaur island, the end of continuous overdraft of magic power is that the magic realm will permanently stay at a low level.
As the examination deepened, Liao Yu could almost determine that this was a spirit creature that only existed in the spirit world. The gray marks of the cat's soul obviously have the characteristics of deep front and thin back, and the back of the neck is a little thinner, if you have to give an example, it is very similar to the tentacles of the octopus sliding against the front of the cat's neck, so it leaves such a thick mark on the front, and the back is a trace of contamination when it slides by.
And in the careful touch with the spiritual silk thread, Liao Yu could feel a strange "touch" similar to mucus from it, and this feeling was fed back to his soul along his spiritual power, and in an instant, it almost aroused the inexplicable tyranny in his body, almost making him angry at Professor Chen's home.
The sudden accident made Liao Yu suddenly break out in a cold sweat, and he immediately took all his mental power back from the cat.
"What's wrong with you, aren't you feeling well?"
Seeing Liao Yu's body trembling suddenly, Professor Chen hurriedly asked with concern, he was a little worried about whether Liao Yu's body had deteriorated again. Seeing this, Chen Siyu also looked at it curiously, and reached out to take the cat in Liao Yu's arms.
"It's okay, it's just that I'm a little dizzy all of a sudden, maybe just sit for a while."
Liao Yu said with a little pale face.
Seeing that Chen Siyu was here, Professor Chen didn't say much about his condition, so he had to say, "Then I'll go and see if Aunt Cheng has eaten well there, and let you drink something first." ”
Liao Yu nodded in response, but his mind was all on this Phantom Luo Beast. Liao Yu has only seen a brief introduction to this spirit creature in Carl's notes, as a disembodied spirit creature, the Phantom Luo Beast has multiple compound eyes, and has an octopus-like tentacle and jellyfish body, it roams the spirit world all day long, relying on absorbing the free alien elements of the spirit world as food.
It's not rare and powerful, and if you compare it to an animal, it's more like a fawn in the forest. The reason why it was recorded by Carl in his notes is that Phantommon is one of the few common magical creatures that can have an impact on reality, while most of the creatures living in the spirit world have no intersection with the parallel real world, even if they overlap and pass through the human body, they will not have any effect on the human body.
As it wanders around, the floating tentacles are likely to have an effect on the soul of some real creature, causing it to hallucinate, be restless, restless, and even depressed, and even allow the creature to see its true body for a short time at that moment. In Karl's world, there have been many patients in the history who have been inadvertently made insane by this creature, and even a certain elf named Illidan has been affected by this creature at a young age.
Liao Yu estimated that the cat was likely to have come into contact with the Phantom Luo Beast that day, and even saw its body. As a cat, its soul is much weaker than that of humans, so much so that it often hides in the corner and feels extremely terrified by the memories of that day.
"After talking so much about this cat, where is the store you said, I'll take Luo Ying to see it one day, I haven't been to pet cats and dogs for a long time."
Liao Yu asked as if chatting, Chen Siyu didn't think much about it, and introduced very enthusiastically: "It's over there in Qingniu District, the street is No. 16 Du Fu Street, if you go to the empty rail, get off at Line 12, and do the No. 156 elevator next to it to go straight to the ground." ”
Of course, Liao Yu was not interested in this beautiful shopkeeper, but he clearly remembered that in the brief description of Carl's notes, because of such characteristics, the Phantom Luo Beast's body could be used as a material for many magical defense props!
As for Liao Yu, who lacks defensive means, this kind of less aggressive magical creature is the prey he is pursuing, and he also has other ideas, hoping that with the help of this matter, maybe he can step into the other side of the real world where he is located, and see what the opposite side of this world is like.
After lunch, Liao Yu and Chen Siyu exchanged contact information and left first. In just two hours of small talk, Liao Yu could clearly feel the insistence of this gentle and delicate girl in the depths of her heart, and the resilience faintly revealed under her witty words made Liao Yu really not optimistic about the persuasion of his old friend, but this was their family matter, and he was not too involved too much.
Liao Yu walked leisurely on the air passage, cautiously using his spiritual power to observe the soul state of the people around him in turn, the overly dense individual spiritual world is also a lot of tempering for his spiritual power, in addition, he can feel the people's respective physical conditions from their soul fluctuations, and then by comparing the expressions on their faces, this taste of understanding the various states of the world makes him feel a strange feeling of being independent of reality and acting as a historical observer.
When it was time to make an appointment with Zheng Wei, Liao Yu found a bathroom at random, and after walking into the cubicle, he chose to enter the cold pond.
"You're punctual."
"Aren't you too."
As soon as Liao Yu opened the door of his private space, he saw Zheng Wei waiting outside, and he didn't know how it was like for this guy to guard an isolated door alone in this vast and vast space.
"Before I decide to redeem it, I have to tell you something, I'm afraid I have to go with me about this matter."
Liao Yu closed the door and took out two simple glasses of freshly squeezed juice from his private space, since he was promoted to corporal, Hantang has opened some simple free benefits, which allowed Liao Yu and Zheng Wei to save a little money for drinks.
"What's the matter?"
Zheng Wei glanced at Liao Yu curiously, took the juice and lay down on Liao Yu's sofa chair very freely.
Liao Yu briefly said what he encountered today, and with Liao Yu's analysis, Zheng Wei's brows gradually wrinkled. This matter seems simple, but what is involved behind it is likely to affect the lives of the two of them in the future, as the two of them become more and more proficient in the field of magic, they will inevitably establish their own magic laboratory in the real world, and they will inevitably come into contact with these strange creatures at that time.
Especially Zheng Wei, who is still quite interested in the profession of necromancer, will deal with all kinds of souls and spirit creatures in the future, and it is obviously a rare opportunity to be able to do some understanding in advance.
"In that case, I'm afraid we have to hurry, and it's best to settle this matter before the next mission."
"Well, I have a way to make some defensive runes from the Phantom Beast's body here. I looked through the exchange list of Hantang, and fortunately I was able to exchange the corresponding missing materials, so we could exchange the required abilities and items first, leaving enough general coins to exchange for materials for defensive runes. ”
Liao Yu said without a pause, obviously before entering the cold pond, he had already planned the follow-up plan.
Zheng Wei nodded, no objection, many times for the general direction of the plan, the two often have the same opinion.
