Seeing the No. 1 Bat Monster flee from the spell and fade away in front of his eyes, Ling Feng was indifferent.

Xiaoxiao frowned, she walked slowly, with a thick puzzle on her face: "Ling Feng? Why are you letting it go? You don't know how much trouble it could cause if it escapes? How many innocent people might be sacrificed? We shouldn't have let it go, it's now a Zero Beast that never existed. Leaving it behind will also be of great use to our exploration of the cave beneath the Hope Kindergarten. ”

"And you're clearly strong enough to keep it. I can feel it, though I don't understand why you have become even stronger than me in less than two months. But I feel like you can kill it completely. In fact, the first time you faced it, you were sure that you could kill it, right? ”

Listening to Xiaoxiao's questioning like a cannon, Ling Feng couldn't help but shake his head, and his heart was also very upset. He has been overloaded with spiritual power many times, and he has been seriously eroded by the gauntlet, and indeed his strength has increased significantly, and even the bat monster that shows a new posture and strength has increased by a step will be easily defeated by him. But can he use this power at will?

He can't! Ling Feng stretched out his hands and thrust them into his hair, biting his lip and letting the faint smell of blood spread in his mouth. He really couldn't use this power anymore, he really couldn't afford the heavy price. But how should he face the girls around him? What should he say?

"Speak, the first time I saw you since I went to investigate the clues I found in the Qingqiu community, I felt that something was wrong with you. But you won't say it, and when you fight bat monsters, you always look preoccupied and timid. What the hell is wrong with you? I remember you weren't like that before! ”

Seeing that Ling Feng was silent, Xiaoxiao, who was already very excited, walked over and stood in front of Ling Feng and stared at his eyes tightly, as if she wanted to see what Ling Feng was thinking.

Speaking of this, Xiaoxiao couldn't help but recall that when he first saw Ling Feng, he knew the danger and ran to Shenyue Middle School regardless of it, wanting to save Ling Ya. I remembered Ling Feng's determination to wear it without hesitation, knowing that wearing the gauntlet would bear a great price. How did he change like this?

Ling Feng has always been a good person, a kind person. He once ran out of strength and was seriously injured just to pull the roller coaster that was about to fall into the waterfall. He also knew that using spiritual power recklessly might exacerbate the changes in his body. With the psychology of luck, for the tragic fate of Situ Yu, face the nine-tailed zero fox......

He is a good man, he is soft-hearted, and he is willing to use this power to help others and protect others. But he didn't want to die, and he didn't want to become some unspeakable monster. He wants to live well!

Ever since he knew that the gauntlets would eat away at his body, he had been weighing on a heavy stone in his heart. He was struggling with whether to use his spiritual power to protect Ling Ya again, protect Lin Yuyao, and protect those humans who were harmed by the Zero Beast. Because once he overused his spiritual power, he would have to bear the price of being eroded by his gauntlets and turning into a terrifying monster.

Previously, he had been holding on to a fluke mentality, taking the risk of using the power given to him by the gauntlets. But not long ago, the bloodthirsty desire in his head almost hurt his sister Ling Ya. From that day on, although his psychology was still entangled, he had begun to tend to escape, and he didn't want to protect others anymore.

And now, under Xiaoxiao's questioning, Ling Feng finally recognized the thoughts in his heart. Or rather, he finally had the courage to make up his mind and harden his heart.

Yes, I want to live well, I want to watch Xiaoya grow up and get married. Seeing her happy, I also have to abide by the agreement to protect Yaoyao. Even if you bear the infamy, even if you bear Xiaoxiao's questioning, even if you watch those innocent people die......

His body had been eroded by more than half of his gauntlets, and there had been some kind of change that he hadn't noticed yet, he hadn't been able to activate his spiritual power before, but the monitor on his wrist kept emitting a red alarm.

Such an abnormality showed that the changes that had occurred in Ling Feng's body must have been extremely bad changes. Maybe he's just a little bit away from the ugliness of a complete nightmare.

Indeed, he can leave Bat Monster Number one behind. But what will he do after overusing spiritual power? Ling Feng didn't want to become the monster in the nightmare, and he didn't want to lose his mind and hurt the people around him who cared about it the most. The headache that plagued Xiaoya has been cured, and he has gradually felt Lin Yuyao's feelings for him, and there are two people in this world that he is very concerned about. He didn't want to leave them......

Ling Feng, who had figured everything out, raised his head slightly, glanced at Xiaoxiao without hesitation, and then looked up casually at the bright moon that had appeared above his head under the dim sky. He shrugged his shoulders lightly and said:

"Before? I don't think there's any difference between me before and now, besides...... Even if something changes, that's normal. After all, people are going to be ...... And it's too dangerous to fight with Zero Beast and those monsters, I think clearly, Mom and Dad are dead, and even if the truth of the year is investigated, it won't help. So don't investigate anymore, and I won't go again if there are zero beasts in the future, I don't want to fight those monsters. They are too dangerous, and it is up to you to do these things. And isn't that the responsibility of your spiritual realm? ”

I thought that Ling Feng would give him a reasonable explanation, but I didn't expect to get such chilling words from Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao took two steps back, widening the distance between herself and Ling Feng, and then looked at Ling Feng, who looked so strange to her from head to toe.

Especially Ling Feng's last sentence, "And isn't this the responsibility of your Spirit Domain?" This completely infuriated Xiaoxiao, who was extremely disappointed in Ling Feng.

Liability? Since he was a child, he has been trained as a warrior, and he has no childhood, and he has watched many friends and relatives die on the battlefield of the Zero Realm. What is this responsibility? In order to protect the place they had only heard of, read in books but never visited, they left their lives forever on the battlefield of the Zero Realm. Can these be summed up in the fluttering word "responsibility"?

"You're just scared, aren't you? You're just afraid of death, aren't you? Well, you're good to go! Don't contact me again in the future, if you don't investigate, I must investigate this matter clearly! I would never allow any organization in this world to study the technology to transform humans into Zero Beasts! ”

Xiaoxiao pointed at Ling Feng's nose and said these words almost with a roar, then she took out the phone that Ling Feng had given her from the pocket of her pants and slammed it on the ground. After doing this, Xiaoxiao turned around without looking back.

What Ling Feng didn't see was that Xiaoxiao, who had always shown a cool look, burst into tears from her eyes.

Xiaoxiao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeves, and then on tiptoe, her body immediately rose into the air and shot into the distance. Soon it disappeared into the overgrown no-man's land.

And after Ling Feng watched Xiaoxiao leave, he bent down to pick up the mobile phone on the ground that had been shattered and the screen had been shattered, revealing the parts inside, and he pressed his hand to his chest to look in the direction of Xiaoxiao's disappearance. A moment of worrying made him sad. It took a series of deep breaths before he was able to break free from the emotions that almost suffocated him.

"I'm sorry ......"

Ling Feng pondered silently in his heart, and then after roughly identifying the direction by the moonlight, he found the big truck that Li Xu sent to deliver ultraviolet lamps. Driving the big truck, Ling Feng also left this abandoned no-man's land.

He had no way to tell Xiaoxiao what kind of changes had happened to him, and he didn't want Xiaoxiao to worry. But if Xiaoxiao explored carefully, even if Mr. Gu helped Ling Feng hide it, it would be easy to know what Ling Feng had endured.

Therefore, he chose to be deliberately misunderstood by Xiaoxiao. In this way, Xiaoxiao will not investigate what happened to him, and at the same time, he will also take advantage of this to completely reassure him, he will no longer use the power given to him by the gauntlet to help the innocent people who were harmed by the Zero Beast. Not anymore, never again.

It was about twelve o'clock in the middle of the night that Ling Feng returned to the city. Parking the big truck on the side of the road, Ling Feng got out of the car and saw the still brightly lit "Fengya Internet Café" not far away, and felt relieved because of the spirit that had become tired due to the oppression of various thoughts.

"Homecoming......"

Ling Feng walked quickly across the road and walked into the Internet café. At this time, it was the most lively time in the Internet café, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Xiao Tang, who was on duty, squatting at the front desk playing with the computer. As the boss, he didn't bother, he walked behind a machine that was empty, and looked at the noisy surroundings.

A warm feeling came to his heart, this is his home, the only thing his parents left him and Xiaoya, and it is also the place where he and Xiaoya grew up together.

Only by staying here can he feel warm and relaxed.

Listening to the sounds of all kinds of games in his ears, as well as all kinds of exchanges, laughing and scolding, Ling Feng lay on the table in front of the computer and fell asleep.

A moment later, Xiao Li, who was on duty to inspect the machine, saw that someone was occupying the seat but not turning on the machine, and he came over to wake up the person and send him away.

But after he saw that it was the boss, Xiao Li ran over and called Xiao Tang.

"Look, did you wake up the boss?"

Xiao Tang, who has been working here for three years, has never seen such a tired boss, and she shook her head at Xiao Li.

"Shhh......h
