The sun is high

Familiar process, familiar place.

Familiar work station and computer.

It's almost like going home.

Xiuge sat on the computer chair, looked at the two boxes, one large and one small, that he had brought in, and then looked at the empty seats around him, and then he let out an imageless sigh.

He suddenly felt that although this dream world was full of all kinds of mysteries, one thing was good.

This dream, filled with familiar elements, became to a certain extent a place for him to vent and place some of his emotions. Although in Van En, he could also find a place where no one was around to curse, but the effect it brought was ultimately is different.

As before, Xiuge did not go straight to his goal, but quickly "patrolled" around the space.

This time, Theseus did not appear.

However, Xiuge saw an open computer in the same position he was at last time. The strategy game he was playing was even paused on the computer screen... We haven't seen him for a while. This guy seemed to be no longer there. I was satisfied with the war sandbox, but directly replaced it with a well-known space strategy game.

Xiuge briefly glanced at the game interface and discovered that Theseus's game had actually entered the final garbage time... and was only one step away from victory.

"He's really free."

Shuge shook his head. He really couldn't figure out the hobbies of Theseus, and he didn't know what he was doing in his daily life. Is it possible that there really is an "Internet addiction god" in this world?

Do you want me to get some electrotherapy too?

In line with the principle of respecting other people's gaming experience, Xiuge did not touch the computer, but simply walked away.

Xiuge felt a little regretful that he could not see Theseus. It was not that he missed him that much, but he really wanted to have some discussions with Theseus about the lost gods and the Black Sun Society.

"Forget it, let's get down to business first."

Xiuge returned to his original position. He first picked up the metal box filled with ten jungle short-tailed wolf fangs, and then relied on his memory to follow the corridor to a huge landing near the edge of the black mist. In front of the bookshelf.

There are all kinds of game industry reference books here, but most of them are brand new. Except for artists who occasionally look through some of the art albums for reference or looking for inspiration, the rest of the planning reference books are rarely used. To touch.

As for those books used to promote corporate culture concepts and describe the marketing strategies of Internet companies, few people care about them.

However, high up on the bookshelf, there is a very eye-catching vacancy.

In Xiuge's memory, there should have been a series of peripherals launched by the company in a certain year. He remembered clearly about these peripherals. There should be a series of five models. However, now, there are only There were five empty black pedestals with nothing on them.

"Well...this is it."

Xiuge nodded, then dragged out a wooden chair from the nearby small conference room used for interviews, and found some gloves and two tweezers as the mage apprentice had told him.

Although he was not sure whether these plastic gloves that originally belonged to another world could isolate magical venom, after experiencing the incident of the Messenger in the Mirror, Shuge became interested in the things that the Dream Sanctuary "provided" for him. Benefit is somewhat wary, and he must be wary of whether every subsequent exchange may bring additional risks to himself.

As Xiuge stood on the chair, the fog that blocked those empty bases slowly emerged.

Xiuge checked the strange text composed of black mist in front of him. After confirming that it was correct, he put on several layers of gloves and picked up the metal tweezers.

He felt like a student entering a chemistry laboratory for the first time.

The iron box was opened by Shuge, and the black text in front of him immediately twisted like a living creature that smelled the smell of delicious food. This time, it revealed a completely different form from what Shuge had seen before.

Under Shuge's gaze, these words quickly formed a mouth the size of a fist. They looked somewhat similar to the snouts of hounds or wolves. Between the opening and closing of these mouths, Shuge could even Rows of sharp teeth made of black shadow were seen.

"Could it be another summoning thing?"

Shuge frowned.

In fact, in his own judgment, he now urgently needs to further improve his magical abilities, either the stock of magic power, or the skills to learn and manipulate magic. In comparison, it is similar to summoning objects or being able to directly He doesn't need magic that causes damage. After all, these things can be compensated for by Van En's current magic system.

"If another dog really lives in the metal disk... maybe it will start a fight with Snitch, right?"

Xiuge recalled the entanglement between the three residents in Yuanpan before and couldn't help but curled his lips.

Think about it, think about it, do it when you do it.

Of course, he would not give up the "benefits" he had already obtained, so he carefully picked up the first fang with tweezers and slowly "fed" it forward.

Those open mouths were like cubs waiting to be fed. Facing the sharp and highly venomous fangs, they immediately bitten over and snatched the fangs on the spot.

There was a clear clicking sound, and in just a moment, the fangs were reduced to fragments in the tearing, fighting and chewing of these mouths.

At the same time, Xiuge saw the shadow of a fang appear on the leftmost base at the rear. The shadow was very complete and clear. It seemed that what happened when he "fed" the changeling bug slime did not happen again. occur.

"It seems that there is no problem with the quality. Just four more feeds are enough."

Xiuge nodded and immediately began to repeat the previous work.

After finishing their first meal, the mouths of these wolf beasts made of black mist seemed to become more active and hungry. The thick mist formed the saliva between the sharp teeth, and they bit silently again and again. Spreading towards the surrounding areas.

Soon, the second and third fangs were fed one after another.

These mouths full of sharp teeth have become much larger, and their movements have become more and more fierce. They even bit off a section of the tweezers in Shuge's hand.

Seeing this, Xiuge became more vigilant. He moved his chair back slightly, then changed the tweezers and continued his previous work.

With the successful feeding of the fifth sharp tooth, the five bases blocked by the fog were also filled. Only the shadows of the five sharp teeth were slowly floating on the base. Xiuge saw that there was an invisible one. Thin lines connected these sharp teeth together, so they left their base and formed a regular ring in the bookshelf, looking like a necklace or bracelet.

A very active magical power emitted.

"finished?"

He looked at everything in front of him and was about to get off the chair and wait for further changes to occur, but then he discovered that the mouths of those hungry wolf beasts had not disappeared!

They have grown very big now, and they are no different from the mouth of a real beast. However, they have not disappeared because of the completion of this "exchange" or "sacrifice". Instead, they have replaced the black ones previously sealed on the bookshelf. The words continued to exist, and as their sharp teeth continued to collide, a sense of ferocity and greed came over me.

"Sure enough, I'm restless..."

Shuge shook his head. He realized that these strange mouths were craving for the remaining fangs. It seemed that as long as they did not eat these delicacies, they would not give up.

Such a scene reminded Xiuge of the loss he suffered from the Messenger in the Mirror before, so as soon as he thought about it, he immediately closed the iron box, turned around and returned to the ground.

"Yeah..."

The moment he stepped on the ground, Xiuge heard a strange crisp sound.

He immediately turned around, only to see that the mouths that had "grown" out of the void had reunited, and a larger, ferocious mouth that could swallow an ordinary person's head emerged from the black mist.

And this wasn't the end yet. As the thick black fog continued to expand, the owner of the mouth finally crawled out of the fog.

Xiuge didn't know how to describe what he saw.

When he first saw it, Xiuge first thought of a wolf...a "wolf" that was extremely slender and had an exaggeratedly long and narrow mouth.

It slowly emerged from the mist, its body trembling in the darkness, as if there was no accurate outline at all, and above its deformed head, Xiuge saw a lot of densely packed animals. The "red dot".

Those appear to be eyes.

But how can any wolf have so many eyes?

Xiuge's sense of crisis suddenly broke out. He quickly took two steps back, and the magic power in his body began to operate at a high speed. Then the black shadow belonging to the messenger in the mirror began to flash on the surface of Xiuge's body, and beside him, he had already passed by The Touch of Charron, which had undergone the first mutation, or "evolution", appeared. These blade-like arthropods, like black sickle-like tentacles, were shaking around Shuge's side, and they were ready to meet him. enemy preparation.

The Running Rat was also summoned by Shuge. However, as soon as Snicki appeared, it let out a sharp hiss, and the hair all over its body had exploded, which made its original slender figure " "Fat" in a circle.

Obviously, this strange wolf beast in front of him brought great fear and shock to Sniqi.

"I think this dream sanctuary is coming to an end... What's going on? It's not right to feed it. If you don't feed it, why don't you just grab it yourself?"

Xiuge placed the iron box containing the remaining five wolf fangs on the table beside him. He stared closely at the wolf beast in front of him, watching it jump out of the mist in mid-air, its winding and twisted body. It swung deftly, and then landed silently right in front of him.

The exaggerated mouth slowly opened, and Xiuge saw several rows of sharp teeth, as well as countless weird tentacles mixed in between these teeth. These tentacles looked like sharp "long tubes" , it seems that they can be used to inject poison, or to absorb the body fluids of prey...

Those fire-like eyes kept flashing. They initially focused on the iron box containing the wolf fangs, but within two seconds, they all turned in the direction of Xiuge.

The rotation speed of the metal disc began to increase crazily, and the uneasy omen in Xiuge's mind reached its peak at this moment.

"Theseus, I..."

Xiuge couldn't help but cursed angrily, but before he could finish his words, the wolf beast had already rushed up. Its speed was extremely astonishing. In the blink of an eye, it had covered a distance of several meters and directly touched Xiuge. In front of the grid.

The Touch of Charron, who had been waiting for a long time, was the first to react. Under the influence of Shuge's instinct, these tough black tentacles intertwined quickly in front of Shuge, and the sharp sickle blades were exposed in unison, as if one side was filled with deadly blades. black shield.

The violent impact directly acted on the center of this "shield". However, the strength of Charron's Touch, which had absorbed the power of the descendants of Dark Abyss, was far greater than before. Under the influence of magic, the hard black horny material formed on the surface of the tentacles. Quickly emerging, these tentacles swung vigorously, and the previously intertwined blades immediately cut forward.

Amidst the series of noises, the surrounding tables, chairs, equipment, and carpets laid on the ground were severely damaged. Among them, the chair that Xiuge had used to rest his feet was even cut into pieces by the sweeping black tentacles.

However, this swift counterattack failed to hit the target.

The twisted wolf seemed to have some special ability. It disappeared the moment it was attacked, but then, its figure flashed out from the shadow in the corner of the ceiling, its thin figure in the dim light. The inside was constantly changing, and the two sharp claws at the front fell fiercely towards Xiuge's upper body.

Although the trajectory of the wolf beast was extremely weird, it could not escape Shuge's magical perception. Therefore, the moment the figure appeared, the touch of Karon was already rolled out into the air under Shuge's order. Before the wolf beast could fall, these tentacles of various shapes had already hit its body.

Xiuge saw that the sharp blades with serrated and corrosive power on Charon's Touch had pierced the body of the wolf beast fiercely, so he quickly took a step back and clenched his fist with his stretched palms. Those blades that successfully pierced the body of the wolf beast The tentacles immediately began to pull violently in different directions, preparing to completely tear the strange beast's body into pieces.

However, the strange phenomenon that had occurred before occurred again.

The moment Shuge gave the order, this ferocious beast with some strange ability seemed to have transcended time and space. It actually forcibly broke through the blockade of Charron's Touch and came directly to Shuge. , the big mouth full of sharp teeth and tentacles opened fiercely, and then bit down hard on Xiuge's head.

With a soft sound, its teeth closed!
