Chapter 17: The Sleeping Beast
It resembles a cat, but it is chubby and has a short, curved white horn between its two furry pom-pom ears.
Even a genetic mutation wouldn't be like this. Su Chen secretly complained, feeling that he was basically sure that this guy was not a member of the cats family.
However, this guy is dressed in ginger, smooth and smooth fur, and his nutritional status is very good. And its tail is also fluffy and beautiful, and it seems that it can be related to the crisp noodle gentleman!
But how could this tail be so short?
As soon as the "cat" turned around, he sat down in a dignified manner, as if he heard Su Chen's heart, and rolled his eyes at him.
Su Chen was stunned for a moment, and he was a little hesitant, not daring to chase anymore.
Then, something even more surprising happened to him.
He heard clearly, a deep voice asking, "Who are you?" ”
Su Chen subconsciously looked around, but except for the little monster sitting upright not far from him, it seemed that no one was talking to him.
But it was too difficult to convince Su Chen that this little monster was talking.
Su Chenke had been staring at this little monster just now, but it hadn't even opened its mouth, how could it speak?
"What do you see? Haven't you ever seen a beautiful woman? ”
"Huh?"
Su Chen couldn't help but be surprised, and blurted out a silly question.
Su Chen pinched the two sword qi talismans in his palm, planning to throw them out immediately if the situation was not right!
However, the little monster replied coldly as if he had a mind-reading skill: "Don't waste your efforts, that won't hurt me." ”
"Huh?"
Su Chen made another stupid mistake.
After about five minutes of embarrassing chatting about being led by the nose, Su Chen finally roughly figured out the origin of the little monster in front of him.
It is a sleeping beast.
The Sleeping Beasts are a very ancient race, and they are also the indigenous people who have always lived in the Blue Star.
Speaking of which, the history of the existence of sleeping beasts is longer than that of the humans of Blue Star.
It's just that the number of members of this group is small, and it has always been very low-key, and it has never been known.
They don't have much to do with humans – harvesting sleep-related energy and nutrients from humans, just like harvesting grains, mushrooms and fruits, and catching animals, is really just an act of harvesting food, and there is no need to introduce themselves to the "farm" at all.
Of course, if it weren't for the fact that he was really curious about why Su Chen was still awake under his repeated attacks, this sleeping beast would not have given Su Chen a chance to see its true body.
Sleeping beasts are not very aggressive, they basically feed on sleep.
To be precise, they feed on the brain waves emitted by intelligent beings during sleep.
They can affect the sleep of all organisms that have evolved the brain as an organ, including when they fall asleep, when they wake up, whether they have insomnia, how much sleep they can sleep, and whether their dreams are complete or incomplete.
The ability of each sleeping beast is to manipulate brain waves, and the specific ability has its own merits, but in essence, it is inseparable from the effect of brain waves no matter what.
The sleeping beast in front of him, who claims to be a beautiful woman, has the ability to manipulate the brainwaves of creatures and adjust them to a deep sleep state.
The deeper and longer a sapient creature sleeps, the more energy and nutrients it gets.
Of course, if the "farm" slept until it died, it would be strangled......
And Su Chen was the first creature it met that could not be affected by his own abilities.
However, although Su Chen could not be allowed to fall asleep under the influence of his ability, it was not difficult to have direct communication with Su Chen at the level of consciousness.
Su Chen felt that his mood was a little messy.
It's not scientific!
No, it can't be said to be unscientific, it's that the style of painting is wrong!
Isn't this an era of technological prosperity?
Isn't this a world that is about to come to an end?
Isn't this a time when interstellar travel can be used as a vacation program?
Why do such cute mobs appear?
Besides, even if there is a monster, it should be bloodthirsty, it should be brutal, it should be slaughtered or something, right?
Why be so laid-back? Or even chatting with yourself here in a slow manner?
In the process, the sleeping beast quietly released two more big moves at Su Chen.
One is called "Black Sweet Country" and the other is called "Dream within a Dream". These two ultimates have easily defeated countless civilized creatures that have evolved the organ of "brain" countless times, no matter how strong their combat power is!
However, Su Chen, who was protected by the peace charm, was unaware of this. Su Chen only felt that there seemed to be two gusts of breeze blowing, his nose seemed to be a little tingle, and he had the urge to sneeze. Other than that, I didn't feel anything else.
The heart of the sleeping beast is broken.
It never thought there would be such a creature in this world!
Obviously, the brain of the guy opposite is very strong and developed, and the signal of the brain wave is very strong, very clear, and easy to capture!
But why, he just can't sleep? It doesn't even seem to be affected at all?
The sleeping beast felt a little angry and ruined. It narrowed its big cute eyes slightly, thinking about whether to release its ultimate move to press the bottom of the box.
But Su Chen's mood at this time was - seeing the sleeping beast, with watery and cute eyes, staring at himself without blinking, he couldn't help but have an urge to pet the cat.
However, the one on the other side is obviously not a cat......
In the process of chatting with himself, he also stroked his white unicorn elegantly, and this cute action was done twice! It's just a sight to behold, and I want to catch it back as a pet to keep it!
Although every time it touched its horn, the crisp and melodious wind chimes emitted by the siren would ring non-stop.
Are the warning charms too sensitive?
I don't feel any danger at all!
Maybe there are times when the warning signs are misjudged!
Or, if it's not the warning talisman that's wrong, it's that the peace talisman is too powerful, and the attack of the sleeping beast on the other side has been quietly neutralized.
Thinking of this, Su Chen's flash of thinking about having a pet dissipated.
For some reason, the sleeping beast's expression suddenly showed a trace of anger, and then it opened its mouth and smiled at Su Chen, revealing a mouthful of small white teeth like grains of rice.
Su Chen only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and the sleeping beast had disappeared.
At the same time, the wind chimes jingled continuously, and Su Chen found that the people who had slept on the ground before all staggered to their feet.
They staggered to their feet with confused eyes open, whispering meaningless words from their mouths, their arms stretched forward, their legs stiffened, grinding, slowly soaring, and walked towards Su Chen.
It was like sleepwalking.
However, it was the first time for Su Chen to see so many people sleepwalking together.
Thinking about the sleeping beast's ill-intentioned smile again, Su Chen instantly felt that this place couldn't stay!
