Chapter 223: Ultimate Puppy Love
“Brother~ my brother!”
Lin Wuyue still clung to Rin like a piece of toffee, looking foolishly devoted.
It’s the kind of thing that would make normal people call the police.
Freya couldn’t bear it anymore and reached out to pull her away.
“I don’t know if the crisis is over yet, can you please act normal?!”
“Don’t worry, the evil god is sure that everything is fine now, I can’t sense the fake one anymore, it’s definitely gone.”
“Then watch your behavior! Let go of your little brother! What are you glaring at me for…What are you coming at me for!”
“Hey, silly sister, don’t come any closer, you’re as disgusting as a bug!”
Rin had a frustrated expression, pressed Lin Wuyue’s face with disgust, and pushed her away.
Covered with a palm on her face, a certain evil god could only smile foolishly, “It’s been so long since we’ve seen each other, why can’t sister give a hug? Be good, little brother, let me tell you…”
She was about to spill everything that happened at home when suddenly there was a violent shaking under her feet, and the surrounding debris collapsed further.
Freya let out a sigh of relief at this moment, and quickly said, “The dream is about to shatter, I should leave first, and then…”
She raised the cursed doll in her hand and said, “This fellow, leave it to me, I must discipline it properly.”
Keeping this cursed doll alive was certainly not out of love or kindness.
Creatures with the ability to enter dreams are actually very rare, she kept this fellow for a good reason.
“So… so soon.”
Lin Wuyue felt a bit sad, she reluctantly glanced at Rin.
“Brother, we will meet very soon, I have already arrived in this world, wait for me to get out I will…”
She wanted to say ‘come to pick you up’, but before she could finish, Rin’s dream had already ended.
Perhaps he had woken up early in the dream, but was trapped inside unable to escape. This time Rin woke up without the usual daze.
When Rin opened his eyes, he sat up and wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead.
His back was sticky and uncomfortable, but he didn’t have time to think about it.
Waste Hero was standing by the bed with a sword in hand, looking very alert and powerful.
Seeing Rin wake up, her alertness softened a bit.
“What’s wrong?”
“Before, tundere, appeared on body, many black mist, then, just now, went that way.”
“Rumble!“
This sentence was too long, and Waste Hero accidentally bit her tongue, instinctively covering her mouth with her hand.
Although Waste Hero was acting cute, Rin didn’t have time to appreciate it. The whole ship started shaking violently as she bit her tongue.
The sound of huge waves hitting the boat filled their ears.
“Let’s go outside and take a look!”
Rin felt uneasy and quickly put on his clothes and shoes before rushing out of the cabin with Emilia following behind.
Below deck, the boat was shaking even more violently, and passengers who realized the danger started to panic and scream.
Mixed in with the chaos were the voices of sailors trying to calm everyone down.
“Don’t panic! The Annabel has a defense magic device, we will be fine!”
Rin scanned the chaotic hall and finally spotted the captain not far away, rushing through with his hat crooked.
“Clear the way, I need a few people to come with me to the control room!”
As Rin was about to follow, someone grabbed him from behind. When he turned around, he saw it was Sha Ye.
“Follow me!”
Sha Ye looked serious and took Rin by the hand, leading him away.
“What’s going on? Also, did you see the black mist that Waste Hero mentioned came out of me?”
“That’s what I wanted to say!”
Sha Ye pulled him along and they arrived at a window in the outer corridor, still talking as they walked.
“This is the thing that came out of your body. Even from across the room, I could feel that something was wrong with you.”
“Neither Emilia nor I could wake you up. After a dark mist burst out of you, I asked Emilia to stay with you, while I chased after it.”
“That mist could pass through solid objects. Once it left the cruise ship, it was absorbed by that mysterious structure, and then you see.”
Could it be her?
Rin was certain that what happened in his dream was truly real.
The dark mist leaving his body must be little “Lin Wuyue”.
Though not completely understanding what was going on, Rin pressed against the window and looked outside.
The huge waves were raging, the sea whipped up by the strong winds was already as high as a ship’s hull.
In the pitch-black waves, clusters of deep purple light circles shuttle back and forth.
And as the waves fell, the strange and eerie architectural body appeared in front of Rin.
Three buildings, interconnected by a huge black mist-like body, constantly making sounds and emitting countless thick, tentacle-like things outward.
“What on earth is that?”
Sha Ye pointed at the window and asked.
Emilia opened her observation eye, and a few seconds later, her eyes dimmed.
All she could see were rows of bright red question marks, with names, ranks, and everything else unknown.
Yet on top of the question marks, there was a black skull symbol, and even though she had never seen this symbol before, she knew it represented an extremely dangerous presence.
“I don’t know, it’s very dangerous.”
Waste Hero replied concisely.
A circle with a faint halo burst out of the black sphere, instantly expanding and spreading across the entire cruise ship.
Rin hadn’t even had time to react when he felt a strange sensation brushing past his body.
There was nothing strange about his body, but the noisy, chaotic sounds of crying and complaining in his ears suddenly fell silent.
Only a strange, chanting-like voice, like reciting prayers or singing, could be heard.
Sha Ye’s ears wiggled, she tilted her head slightly and said a few surprised words to Rin and Waste Hero.
However, none of them could hear each other now, and all three looked puzzled.
“Lost lambs, carrying your fears, behold Great God, ignite the lighthouse with the fire of life, to seek truth and glory!”
This was not a whisper like before, but an excited and passionate singing voice.
Everyone on the ship clearly heard it.
The members who had completed the ceremony earlier were now standing on the deck, gathered together, reciting the final words.
After finishing the chant, they all looked towards the huge black fog, raising their statues high.
The black fog started shaking violently at this moment, emitting an evil aura and making a buzzing sound.
Connor cheered excitedly, “Great God is responding to us! O noble Great God, grant your most devout followers wisdom and power beyond those of ordinary mortals, we will bring glory to you!”
The violently shaking black sphere suddenly became quiet, its waving black tendrils moving slowly.
It seemed like it was pondering something.
…
A distant unknown land.
Lin Wuyue opened her eyes and looked at the dark surroundings in front of her, feeling lost and desolate.
She felt so unfairly treated, close to tears.
She had just seen her little brother when suddenly encountering so much trouble without a chance to bond with him.
Surprisingly, her little brother was most afraid of her at that time.
She thought that event was long past.
Waaah, she couldn’t control it at all!
What a terrible place this is! Can they hurry up and let her out to meet her younger brother?
Even her divine powers are sealed, making everyone bored to death here!
As complaints kept pouring out of Lin Wuyue’s heart one after another.
Suddenly, she faintly felt something pulling on her divine powers.
This feeling… seems like a ritual for an evil god?
The fragmented chant kept entering Lin Wuyue’s ears and repeating endlessly.
Lin Wuyue rolled her eyes and continued to act indifferent.
“This evil god, can’t even protect themselves now, calling, calling your granny’s leg, so annoying! What does it have to do with me?!”
…
At that moment, the dark mist also took some time to “think”.
Amid the pleas and calls of the members of the community, or rather the devotees, it “finally” reacted.
The tentacles, which were originally drifting slowly, suddenly accelerated, pierced through the barrier with a wave, and directly knocked them away.
Rin’s eyes widened as he watched the dark mist suddenly strike.
Strangely, he seemed to… seemed to understand what this guy was saying.
In summary, it’s probably…
“Can’t understand, so annoying.”
This situation is very similar to when he heard little “Lin Wuyue” talking to him in his dreams.
The difference is that in dreams, you actually hear things, just like how messages from a system are sent directly to your mind.
But now, it’s just a feeling in your mind, without actually hearing any sound, yet somehow understanding its meaning.
So, it really is “her” after all?
For some unknown reason, the being transformed from illusion to reality.
“She” had a powerful outburst, instantly causing the panicked passengers to cower on the ground trembling.
Rin didn’t know what she was up to, hesitated for a moment, then rushed towards the deck.
Emilia wanted to hold him back, but Rin quickly pulled her hand away, signaling his intention, with Emilia steadfastly following him.
Sha Ye opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and reluctantly followed them.
Chasing after them, all the while cursing under her breath.
This darn dwarf really thinks I, as a bodyguard, can handle anything that comes my way!
That thing gives me the same vibe as Suyu, I have to deal with it too!
Well, whatever that thing flying out from the darn dwarf might hold some clues.
Rushing to work overtime, Rin almost fell to the ground.
The cruise ship, tossed by huge waves, now swings like a swing, all protected by a defense barrier.
Of course, it can be concluded that the barrier is completely useless against “her”.
Rin held onto the railing and happened to spot the statue that had fallen on the ground, then he saw Connor grabbing onto a corner of the ship.
His eyes sharpened, and the first words that came into his mind were “cult”.
Then, thinking of the evil god and gazing back at the spherical object, a few thoughts started to connect.
But I don’t have time to deal with these guys right now.
Rin told Waste Hero to step back, then he walked a few steps forward alone.
“She” also noticed Rin, her originally inflated misty form suddenly shrank, becoming much smaller.
But in her current state, it seemed like she couldn’t speak, and couldn’t even take on a human form.
Rin still understood what “she” meant.
“I want to leave, I’m trapped.”
“Oh God! Oh God!”
At this moment, Connor climbed up, knelt down on the deck, and called out towards the black fog.
And the other disciples who were knocked back and stopped by a barrier falling down, were now bowing down on the ground, devoutly calling out.
“It’s them.”
“She” expressed another meaning, then frantically waved her black beard as if justifying herself.
To show her determination, “she” directly grabbed the disciples, broke the barrier, and lightly threw them.
About ten people instantly turned into shooting stars and disappeared in an instant.
Only Connor, being so close to Rin, “she” feared harming him and didn’t take action.
At this moment, Connor was also a bit stunned, sitting on the ground, unable to understand.
“…”
Rin was somewhat speechless, feeling even more out of place in his heart.
Still remembering how she looked when first seen in the dream, “she” indeed resembled the Lin Wuyue from that evening.
The powerful spirit looked down with eyes like tiny ants.
Afterwards, she kept the same expression.
Even her tone of voice was exactly the same.
But the voice she sent into Rin’s heart, as well as her current appearance.
It made people feel like… as if she was only pretending to be a wicked spirit, but actually just an innocent child who didn’t know anything.
For a moment, Rin couldn’t connect “her” with the way Lin Wuyue was behaving.
“Did I scare you? I’m sorry.”
“…”
“Before, I couldn’t control myself. Luckily, that woman stopped me from hurting you.”
“Hmm.”
Rin looked strange, feeling confused and unsure of how to respond.
“Do you not want to talk to me? Sorry, I’ll disappear right away.”
“？？？”
“But, if your little brother is not so scared, can he call me and talk to me in the future?”
“Hiss…”
Rin took a sharp breath.
Strange, too strange!
Goosebumps appeared.
What’s going on with this guy?
Why does he look like a begging puppy wagging its tail?
He and the dog Sword Saint are not the same kind.
It’s just that kind…
Ugh, can’t describe it, but it’s so strange.
It’s so strange that he doesn’t even know what to say, he’s totally forgotten the original purpose.
Seeing Rin not responding for a while, the other party’s momentum also waned.
“Sorry, I disturbed my younger brother, I’ll disappear now.”
Then, the black spherical object instantly shrunk by one circle, sinking down along with the building.
The raging sea waves calmed down a lot, and the sound that was originally shielded suddenly erupted again.
“Wait!”
Connor realized something was wrong, and hurriedly stumbled towards the railing.
“Great God! Great God! You have not fulfilled our wishes yet.”
The half-submerged black mist paused briefly, then extended a tentacle and slapped Connor, sending him flying.
This time, she was a bit angry, so she directly shattered the barrier.
As she retracted the black tentacles, “she” completely disappeared into the sea.
However, as the barrier was shattered, the waves surged onto the deck, directly knocking Rin to the ground and pulling him into the sea.
Waste Hero quickly rushed forward, without thinking, and leaped down.
Sha Ye also came to the edge, almost jumping off, but her instincts kept her on the deck.
“Help, I can’t swim!”
