Start with a rent-collecting magical girl

Darkness enveloped Liao Baiyu in an instant.

To be honest, Liao Baiyu was really shocked when the seven-headed snake suddenly burst out.

He actually reacted immediately and wanted to dodge. Judging from the speed of the Hydra, which was relying on the backlight to exert force at that time, it should be enough to dodge even if it was caught off guard.

But at that moment, the feeling of being able to communicate with the beast's mind once again emerged in Liao Baiyu's heart.

Time seemed to stand still, and he "read" the thoughts of the seven-headed snake.

It's not here to eat me.

Is it to protect me?

Many times the decision is made in one thought.

Maybe it’s the curious desire to explore.

Or maybe it was the obsession of the nightmare beast in front of him that kept approaching him no matter what, which made Liao Baiyu extremely puzzled.

Therefore, by some strange combination of circumstances, Liao Baiyu actually gave up any extra moves.

Let the seven-headed snake eat him into his belly.

And next.

It was different from what Liao Baiyu imagined being swallowed into his belly.

In the body of the nightmare beast, there is no corrosive mucus, no wriggling stomach pouch, or in other words, there are no "organs" at all.

It's like a black hole of nothingness here.

Or, if Liao Baiyu describes it more accurately, the entire body of the seven-headed snake is like an empty shell.

A container for dark matter.

And this is a good thing for Liao Baiyu.

Because since he came in, the message bar on the panel started to jump wildly, and his negative energy was accumulating crazily at thousands of points per second.

From Liao Baiyu's personal senses, although the surroundings were very dark and chaotic, these dark matter did not bring any burning or tingling sensation.

For real creatures, dark matter, which is more poisonous than poison, is like air to Liao Baiyu.

No.

Liao Baiyu took a deep breath.

Every pore in his body seemed to be relaxing, and the cells were sucking out energy, absorbing the dark matter energy in the Hydra's body into his body.

This feeling of fullness and comfort is like breathing the freshest air in the forest in the morning, or soaking in a high-end hot spring with just the right water temperature.

Although it’s not nice to say that.

But Liao Baiyu, who was eaten by the seven-headed snake, was really kind, as if he had returned home.

"Woo"

"Papa. Lu. Wu."

In the darkness, an extremely weak whimper immediately drew Liao Baiyu's attention back.

The sound was like some injured animal.

Liao Baiyu immediately groped in the darkness and followed the direction of the sound. Soon, he found a weak light source in front of him. When he got closer, he found it.

"Papapa"

The source of the whimpering sound was a small beast.

The little beast has seven heads, and the whole thing is in the shape of a snake. In addition to the strange ear feathers, Liao Baiyu can recognize it at the first sight. Isn't this the cruel and vicious seven-headed snake outside?

It's just that the little beast inside now looks like a super miniature version, and it doesn't have so many offensive edges and corners, and looks more like a cute animal.

but.

It can be heard from the whimpering sound in front that the little beast is not in good condition. It can even be described as very bad.

Liao Baiyu immediately squatted down and carefully inspected the little beast.

He soon discovered that the originally smooth and delicate scales of the little beast were now covered with black lines, and balls of dirty black mud seemed to be embedded in the little beast's flesh.

It's sick.

A terrible corruption.

A sort of.

curse.

It seemed that he was aware of Liao Baiyu's arrival.

The little beast stopped whimpering and reluctantly opened its eyes. The seven snake heads were not as brutal as they were outside. Instead, they stretched out with all their strength and weakly rubbed Liao Baiyu's hand.

But such a simple action consumed a lot of its strength, and soon it began to whimper in pain again, and this time its reaction was even more violent.

The black lines flashed strangely, and a large amount of filthy black mud poured out from the little beast's eyes and mouth.

The little beast struggled desperately, and its whole body began to twitch in pain. Along with it, the space in the snake's belly where Liao Baiyu was located also began to shake violently.

At this time, Liao Baiyu finally understood why there were no organs in the seven-headed snake, just like an empty shell.

Because, the seven-headed snake

No.

It should be said that all nightmare beasts are originally bodies.

The real bodies of nightmare beasts should be the little beasts in their bodies!

It was under the infection of this "curse" that the little beast mutated. This "curse" took the little beast as its core, filled it with dark matter, and finally evolved into a nightmare beast.

The little beast is similar to his own Papalu.

Liao Baiyu couldn't help but watch the other party struggling in front of him.

Without any hesitation, he immediately tried to save the little beast.

Five thousand, ten thousand, one hundred thousand

As Liao Baiyu put more negative energy into the little beast, the little beast's condition really improved significantly.

His own power was like the nemesis of this filth. Under the continuous input, the black lines and black mud on the little beast's body were fading rapidly, visible to the naked eye.

Finally, just when Liao Baiyu's own inventory was almost at the bottom, the last piece of dirt on the little beast was completely eradicated.

The little beast seemed to have come to life again, making a sound of "Papa" excitedly. The seven snake heads were rubbing against it back and forth, and its whole body was spinning around itself.

The healing of the little beast also caused changes in the body of the seven-headed snake that Liao Baiyu was currently in.

The chaotic dark matter that was originally filled everywhere was basically consumed by Liao Baiyu during the healing just now.

The void-like darkness was gone.

Instead, there are pieces of transparent crystals that emit milky white light like crystals.

internal

Crystallization?

Liao Baiyu was still curious, but the little beast next to him used seven snake heads to gently push his trouser legs.

Afterwards, the little beast gestured with the snake's head and led Liao Baiyu to the largest crystal in the belly of the crystallized snake.

The crystal wall is extremely smooth, like a huge mirror.

When Liao Baiyu stands in front of him, Liao Baiyu's appearance can still be reflected.

But the strange thing is.

He seemed to be wearing, not the original clothes, but a hospital gown similar to a white coat.

Even the mirror white light glowing on the crystal wall gave Liao Baiyu the feeling that it was a bit like the white light in the operating room.

so.

What's the meaning?

Just here to look yourself in the mirror?

Liao Baiyu was still surprised, but the little beast quickly gave him guidance. The snake's head suddenly burrowed into the pocket of Liao Baiyu's hospital gown, and then came out again.

"You mean, pocket?"

"Papa! Papa!" The snake head nodded happily.

Liao Baiyu just put his hand into the pocket of the hospital gown.

But.

It was empty inside.

Nothing.

He was wondering, but the little beast's snake head pointed at the mirror of the crystal wall.

After Liao Baiyu looked over, he could see that under the reflection of the white light mirror, he was wearing a hospital gown and had the same look with his hands in his pockets.

But the next moment.

When Liao Baiyu took his hand out of his pocket.

He had nothing in his own hands.

Can.

Although the actions of the two of him in the mirror were exactly the same, Liao Baiyu could clearly see that his hand in the mirror actually took out something from his empty pocket.

That's a gem.

A dark gem.

Could it be that.

Liao Baiyu seemed to understand something at once.

Mirror, real world, subspace.

Although I still don’t understand things like hospital gowns and surgical lights.

But enough is enough.

Next, he looked in the mirror and put his hands back into his pockets, and his reflection in the mirror followed suit.

This time.

Liao Baiyu's expression was immediately stunned for a moment, followed by surprise and disbelief.

Because he clearly felt that he really touched something in the pocket that was supposed to be empty. It was the outline of a gem.

But just when he wanted to take the gem out of the hospital gown.

The man in the mirror suddenly seemed to come alive and shook his head at him.

It was also at this moment.

Liao Baiyu felt that the world was spinning, and the darkness like a tide was rushing in again. His consciousness seemed to be rising rapidly, leaving this white world, and when he opened his eyes again.

yes.

Familiar ceiling.

This is Liao's manor?

Your own room?

Liao Baiyu sat up from the bed. The sky outside had completely darkened. The moonlight fell on the clock. It was already one or two o'clock in the middle of the night.

Did he fall into a coma and then be carried home from the battlefield?

Liao Baiyu was still thinking about it, and as if he had noticed his movements, the girl who had been standing beside him and lying on Liao Baiyu's quilt slowly woke up.
