Chapter 258: The Truth Is Like Water in a Sponge, Squeezing It Is Still There
Xiao Shi was not killed immediately by Su Wen in the end, but it was not because of Laetitia's stopping.
On the contrary, when Su Wen briefly introduced what this slime had done, her face immediately became very ugly, and her first reaction was to take out the kinetic pistol she carried with her and load it, if Su Wen hadn't stopped her, the slime would have been beaten into a sieve in the next second.
"Laetitia, you go out first, I'll take care of this matter myself. ”
"Okay, master, please don't show mercy!"
“......”
After sending Laetitia away, only Su Wen and Xiao Shi were left in the bathroom, the latter seemed to have completely given up hope of life, and lay like a black mud in the locomotive fuel without moving.
Su Wen scooped it up and brought it up to him.
"If my guess is correct, you're probably planning how to pretend to be dead and get away with it, right?"
The thing in his hand seemed to tremble imperceptibly, but did not respond.
Su Wen continued: "I know that slimes have a strong ability to heal themselves, especially a slime mother like you, and their vitality is even more tenacious. In fact, you are not afraid of the anti-venom I dripped in just now, but you are deliberately showing weakness, and even if you are tragically roasted, as long as you are nourished by water again, you can come back to life. But don't worry, I won't give you this chance, after you are scorched, the remaining solid residue will be made into powder by me with a beater, and then I will take it in, and when I have time, find an active volcano and throw it in, I believe that the temperature of the magma will eventually let you rest in peace. ”
The more he said this, the more the slime in his hand couldn't hold it back, and by the end, it was already trembling with horror.
"You...... You're so ruthless, Daddy!"
"Why do you still call me dad so much, and you refuse to face me with your true colors? If you had done that earlier, maybe I could have left you a way to live." ”
"But this is my true face! Do you want Xiao Shi to pretend to be a fierce god, in the undead plane, the slime itself is the lowest creature, especially our slime mother, not only has no combat power, but also hides in the slime group every day for fear that we will be caught, then we will lose our freedom forever and become the slave of the demon lord!"
Speaking of this, Xiao Shi paused, and his black body squirmed, as if he was looking up to peek at Su Wen's reaction.
"Go on, I'm listening. ”
"Oh, yes, I did hide a lot of things from my dad before, such as my abilities and background, but that's because people didn't know what kind of person my dad was in the first place. As the object of hiding in Tibet every day, there must always be some sense of self-protection, and if it doesn't work, it is also planned to eat you in one bite while the link is established. But later, by observing your life with your mother, I gradually realized that Dad is an object that can be trusted, and if you follow you, it will not be as miserable as being caught by a strong man in the undead plane. But the reason why I still devoured Dad when I was soul linked, whether Dad believed it or not, the purpose was not to destroy Dad, but to better ......"
"Hey, hey, stop," Su Wen interrupted Xiao Shi, who was getting more and more talking, "How did it become whitewashing, I don't care what your motive is for devouring my spiritual consciousness, just tell me what you are hiding from me, be specific." ”
"Oh......"
Xiao Shi seemed to recall.
"Let's start at the beginning. I don't have a name, and we slimes don't have names, because even if we have a name, we won't be used, and when we do, we will be exposed. That's right, as a slime mother, what we have to do in life is to multiply, make our own group as big as possible, and then hide ourselves among thousands of ordinary slimes, the only thing we can trust is the children we have born, and for other creatures, even if they are also slime mothers, we must not reveal our true bodies. ”
"Hmm, how do you breed?"
"There is a very small chance that the proliferation will awaken into a new mother, and this is the only way for slimes to continue their offspring, so if we are caught, not only will we become tools of demons, but even our maternal offspring will be in danger. But fortunately, there is no difference in the appearance of our slime mother and ordinary slimes, and we have the experience of motherhood from birth, so as long as we find an opportunity, most of them can actually sneak out quietly. For example, I was born in a heavily guarded castlevania, where my mother was kept in a cage and was tasked with splitting out a thousand proliferates every day, which is almost the limit of what a mother slime can do in a day. After I was born, I didn't tell anyone about my existence, including my birth mother, and I worked hard in Castlevania for several years before pretending to die like any other slime in a battle, and I was finally free. ”
"And then?"
"Then I found a bay and spent all my time every day dividing myself, and after a few years, I finally split more than a million proliferations, filling almost the entire bay. Until one day, two mid-level undead came to the bay to prey on my children as usual, and I heard them talk about the fact that they were going to do something great in the fertile alien plane recently, and I really wanted to leave the ghost place of the undead plane, so I quietly parasitized in the ear hole of one of the undead. The undead of the undead plane are very slow to feel their own bodies, so they have never noticed my existence, and they have been bringing me here from the undead plane, and then I was exterminated by you humans, and what happened after that is what Dad saw. That's all I've experienced, it's simple, but every minute of my life on the undead plane is a fear and torment of the future. ”
"Is that done, do you have nothing to add?"
"Eh, what...... What's the addition?"
"Like what happened after the parasitic undead re-entered the realm of the undead king. ”
"There's nothing special to say about those things, it's just hiding in its ears every day and shivering, pretending to be a lump of mud and not daring to move. ”
"yes, it looks like that's your last word. ”
After Su Wen finished speaking, he was about to do it.
"Don't, Dad! I confess everything! I confess everything! Actually, I was discovered by the undead Archlord Bone King Aura as soon as I arrived in Castlevania, and the reason why I was mixed in the undead vanguard this time was because it asked me to find the nearest water vein to create a large number of warriors, but I didn't expect the portal to be destroyed halfway through, and then I was abandoned here......"
"What else?"
"It's gone, it's really gone!" Xiao Shi was so anxious that he was about to cry, "Dad, that's all I have!"
"In that case—"
Su Wen pondered for a moment, and then said to Xiao Shi, "Do you want to live?"
"Whatever I want me to do!"
"Well, you can do something for me, prove your worth to me, and then I'll consider whether or not to spare your life. ”
"Well, then, can Xiao Shi still call your father?"
"Didn't you shout all the time. ”
"Great, in this case, Xiao Shi will be satisfied......"
"By the way, add another one temporarily, pretending to be pitiful or maliciously selling cuteness, it will lower my evaluation of you, which will lead to you being eliminated by me in advance. ”
"Woo......"
"Alright, get ready, it's time for us to get to work. ”
"Now?!" Xiao Shi was stunned for a moment, "What does Xiao Shi need to do?"
Su Wen had already put on the stealth armor by himself.
"You'll know when you get there. ”
