Chapter 23: The Ghost and the Cat

By the time Chen Mu and the others successfully retreated from this wave of ghost tides, the ashes altar in Liu Jiaming's hands had been stuffed to the brim, and at a glance, it seemed to exude an eerie aura all the time, looking like a demonic magic weapon.

When they walked back, all the passers-by around them were respectful of them, and the deterrent effect was outstanding.

However, behind them, there was a pair of resentful and longing eyes that kept following the urn in their hands, unwilling to look away for a long time.

These eyes are very magical, coming from a carp king who struggled to jump from the sea to the shore.

After everyone walked away, the carp king transformed into a cute little fox with a pure white body, with a peach-colored soft hair on the top of his head, and a ring of soft hair around his neck, but now it was all wet, and it hung around his neck like a hoop.

This is a relatively rare, average + ghost attribute Zoroa.

Her trait apparitions allow her to change her appearance at will, easily transforming into other creatures.

However, unlike the complete transformation of the Changeling, the Phantom only changes its appearance, and cannot replicate the skills and abilities of the original object.

So not only was the carp king just now her, but even the wind ball that disappeared from Chen Mu's field of vision in the blink of an eye during the battle was also her.

At this time, she finally fluttered ashore, looking at Chen Mu and his party who were gradually moving away and the urn full of her partners, her big watery eyes were full of grievances.

Woo woo, human, it's terrible!

Shaking his body, he shook off some of the water on his body, and finally spread his limbs out with all his might, spreading his petite body in a large shape on the reef on the shore, his chin resting on the "hoop" around his neck, and closing his eyes with a helpless face.

It's too hard......

She's really hard......

I thought it was a happy thing to finally have the opportunity to come out to play, but in the process of playing, it was another happy thing to meet a lot of people of the same kind on a strange island in the sea, and the two happy things were superimposed, and what I got was supposed to be a beautiful time like a dream.

But...... Why is this happening?

Woo woo, blame those hateful humans!

Not only have they made the depths of the Inland Sea uninhabitable by evil means, but now they are not even allowed to try to migrate to the outer islands in search of a place to rest!

It's so hateful!

The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, she couldn't help but close her eyes and raise her head, letting out a "evil fox roar" that she thought was very imposing.

Damn you, damn you, abominable humans!!

As a result, the milky roar was interrupted in the middle of the roar by a long protracted "goo-".

It was the sound of her own stomach......

Lying on the reef on the shore, after the abdomen was squeezed, the hunger caused by the fierce battle just now suddenly surged even more violently.

Damn human, I'll beat you up when I'm full!

But at the thought of the coldness and strength of the Koga ninja frog, poor little Zoroa's whole body couldn't help but tremble, and the trembling ripples spread from his head all the way to the tip of his tail.

The shaking is extraordinarily even, indicating that there is no place in the body that is not afraid.

So she was pitiful and self-deceiving, and corrected it in her heart: I'll ...... when I'm full. Think about how to beat you up!

Little Zoroa got up from the reef as he thought about it, and the little water left on his body was almost dried up.

She leaped forward and jumped off the reef with agility, then ran nimbly towards the corner of the beach in her memory.

Luckily, she had saved her hand before that, and buried all the food she had collected near the beach in the last few days in one place.

Huh, to be a fox, you really have to keep a hand, human, you didn't think about it, right? Little Soroa won't be defeated so easily!

The place where she buried her things was a little away from the sea, but when she trotted all the way to the burial site, she saw two female humans walking along the beach at low tide and picking up seafood, and it seemed that she was getting closer and closer to the place where she buried the treasure!

Stop! Humans, don't take away little Zoroa's food!

By this time, the younger human female had discovered her secret treasure!

"Huh? How can there be a bag of old toys here? Is someone's child buried here? ”

Ghosts feed on the emotions and souls of living beings, and in many cases, the thoughts, concerns, and feelings on some old objects can become the rations of ghost elves.

Just as there are often anecdotes of ghosts in the sea sneaking on the boat at night and stealing sailors' drifting bottles, it is actually the emotions of weak ghosts stealing from those drifting bottles.

Of course, powerful ghosts can suck the souls of creatures directly, and often don't look down on such small snacks.

It's a pity that little Soroa is just a little ghost who is still underage, poor, weak, helpless, but he can eat it!

It took her five days to collect the old toys that had been buried, and she had spent five days running around the beaches and thrift markets!

No! Only that kind of thing can't!

At that moment, she decided without hesitation to save her rations!

But luckily, she still has a certain amount of sanity, and knows that the identity of her ghost must not be easily revealed, especially after they have been severely repaired and treated by humans not long ago!

So before rushing out, she came up with an idea, activated the phantom trait again, and turned herself into a very common kitten-like spirit in the city: pickpocket cats!

It is a kitten spirit with purple hair on most of its body, creamy yellow on its back, chin, upper limbs, shoulders and hind limbs, and a purple oblique hook like a small devil at the end of its tail.

Even an island city like Shipwreck Bay has a lot of pickpocket cats, so Zoroa is sure that his disguise will definitely not arouse suspicion.

After completing the illusion, she immediately rushed out anxiously, and even used the skill "High Speed Movement" to speed up!

At the moment of jumping out of cover, little Zoroa had already thought of the route, determined the direction of the breakthrough, deduced the angle at which he pounced and took the bag of toys, and the route of escape after that.

The action has not yet begun, and the whole process has been completed smoothly in her mind!

Her body is agile, she runs like the wind, she A's up—

"Bang!"

Then she was stopped by a big paw with a bewildered face, pressed to the beach, spread out her limbs, and fell to the ground in a large shape like the one on the reef just now, choking on half of the sand in her mouth......

Ay?

She struggled to turn her head to look up, just in time to see a burly marsupial beast smiling kindly at her.

And the two human females over there happened to be communicating around her.

"Huh? Why did a pickpocket cat suddenly pop out? Sister Li, is this the cat in your store? ”

The two people who were picking up seafood on the beach were Qi Xuanyu and Sister Li, who had just finished negotiating with the engineering team and came to catch the sea early in the morning.

Sister Li looked at the pickpocket cat who was arrested by the marsupial beast with one paw, and she was quite strange for a while.

"No, I don't like cats."

Qi Xuanyu picked up the little guy from under the claws of the sarsupial beast, shook it, shook off some of the sand, and looked at the perfect coat color and smart big eyes of Zoroa after the illusion, and couldn't help but show his heart for a while.

"It's so cute, Sister Li, are you sure it's not your cat? Then I'll pick it up and raise it. ”

"Yes."
