Chapter 166: Unusual Changes In The Pendant
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Yu Jinmo was nestled in Lin Bai’s arms and the two talked a lot, mostly about Jiang Yu.
Perhaps because she was really worried about Jiang Yu, Yu Jinmo completely ignored it. It was the first time he spent the night with Lin Bai.
And it was in such an intimate position.
There was no nervousness or shyness, only a heart full of relaxation and attachment.
Yu Jinmo liked this feeling of security very much.
It was late at night, and she gradually fell asleep in Lin Bai’s arms.
Lin Bai could feel the slow and even breathing of the girl in his arms, and he knew that she had already fallen asleep.
However, he was not sleepy at all.
It was not because he was hindered by lust, but simply because he enjoyed this warm intimacy so much that he could not bear to fall asleep.
Thus, he quietly hugged the girl in his arms, listening to her breathing and looking out the window at the melting moonlight.
It happened to be a full moon tonight.
Under the moonlight, Lin Bai suddenly felt a slight chill on his wrist.
The pendant that he had gotten from Ling Xuewei had been turned into a bracelet by Lin Bai who always carried it with him.
In fact, he himself couldn’t explain why he had changed it into a bracelet but his intuition told him that it should be so, so he followed it.
After countless tests in the past, Lin Bai had developed the habit of following his intuition.
At this moment, a strange feeling came from his wrist, and Lin Bai immediately thought of the pendant.
He gently raised his arm, and sure enough, he saw that the pendant was covered in a layer of white light.
Among the ancient and complicated patterns, there was even a dazzling light.
Lin Bai only took a glance, and his mind seemed to be completely absorbed. He couldn’t take his eyes off it.
As the radiance flowed, Lin Bai entered a mysterious state that was neither a dream nor a dream.
In a trance, a blurry image appeared in front of his eyes.
In the image, Jiang Yu was lying on the bed, unconscious. Her entire body was shrouded in the moonlight.
Her stomach kept heaving up and down, expanding more and more, as if she was absorbing the moonlight.
In less than ten seconds, her stomach had already expanded like a balloon.
It was as if with just a slight poke, her stomach would instantly burst open.
Fortunately, her stomach finally stopped expanding. Instead, it was like a deflated balloon, shrinking bit by bit.
The gas that floated out of her stomach was even darker than ink.
The black gas seemed to be able to devour everything in the world. The moonlight could not illuminate it at all. Instead, it was constantly being absorbed.
The black gas flew out of the house slowly, drifting toward the southeast.
Lin Bai’s heart moved, and his mind floated out with the black gas.
During this process, his mind slowly merged with the black gas.
Endless evil thoughts invaded Lin Bai’s nerves, breeding countless terrifying thoughts.
It almost made him lose his mind.
Just as Lin Bai’s mind was shaken, a sharp pain suddenly came from the depths of his mind.
His mind instantly returned to reality, completely waking up from the mysterious state of being half-awake and half-asleep.
Lin Bai panted heavily, and a chill ran down his spine.
The terrifying feeling of that moment was still imprinted in his heart.
Anger, jealousy, hatred, ruthlessness…
It was as if all the negative emotions in the world had been mixed together. That huge ruthlessness that wanted to destroy the entire world made Lin Bai feel a lingering fear.
He was glad that he had woken up in time. Otherwise, he would definitely have been swallowed up by that emotion and become a puppet that would only hurt and destroy.
Just like Wang Chenyu.
The fusion just now not only allowed Lin Bai to experience the terrifying violent emotion for a short time, but it also allowed him to gain a lot of information that he did not know before.
For example, Wang Chenyu was actually just a puppet.
He was bewitched by this evil energy and willingly sacrificed his little conscience, becoming a complete bastard.
He constantly hurt others, trying his best to trigger the maximum pain, providing nutrients to the evil energy in exchange for the benefits he wanted.
There were many puppets like him.
At the moment of the short integration, Lin Bai vaguely sensed their existence.
They were scattered in every corner of the city.
There might be more outside of the city.
The situation was far worse than he had expected.
Lin Bai tried hard to calm himself down.
Worrying and panicking could not solve any problems and or not be affected by emotions.
After a few deep breaths, Lin Bai had quickly adjusted his condition and even thought of a general strategy.
The first thing he needed to do was to confirm Jiang Yu’s current condition.
Lin Bai carefully let go of his arms and tried to leave quietly without waking up Yu Jinmo.
Unfortunately, Yu Jinmo was too sensitive. Although she had slept soundly before, she immediately woke up when Lin Bai moved.
She grabbed Lin Bai’s hand in a daze and mumbled something before falling asleep again.
Lin Bai did not have the time to admire her silly appearance. All he wanted to do was to quickly go to Jiang Yu’s room to see if her stomach was emitting black gas.
Thus, he carefully pulled his hand out. Yu Jinmo, who had yet to fall asleep, immediately woke up.
She grumbled in dissatisfaction and rubbed against Lin Bai’s chest like a cat, trying to find a more comfortable position.
Lin Bai’s mind wavered for a moment, but he immediately realized that there were more important things he had to do now.
He used almost all of his willpower to suppress the impulse in his heart.
He gently carried Yu Jinmo to the bed and whispered, “Sleep well.”
Yu Jinmo frowned slightly and raised her hand to grab Lin Bai’s wrist again, but in the end, she could not resist the strong sleepiness.
Lin Bai walked out softly and entered the room where Jiang Yu was.
The room was shrouded in black fog, and Jiang Yu’s abdomen was inflated to an extreme degree.
Everything was as Lin Bai had “seen” just now.
It was very obvious that the monster that Jiang Yu had attached to the high school had already passed the stage of absorbing moonlight and had begun to release energy.
Lin Bai recalled the terrifying feeling of merging with the black fog when he was half-asleep just now, and he could not help but feel a chill run down his spine.
He did not dare to stay any longer and immediately turned around in a bid to leave the room.
However, the moment he turned around, he felt a sudden chill on his wrist.
Lin Bai subconsciously lowered his head to take a look. He saw that his wrist was already covered in a layer of black gas. He could not see the original pendant at all.
Lin Bai felt a chill in his heart. Without thinking, he took off the pendant and flung it away forcefully.
Coincidentally, the pendant landed squarely on Jiang Yu’s stomach.
Jiang Yu let out a painful groan.
Then, the black gas in her stomach leaked out and mixed with the pendant.
Looking at the situation, Lin Bai could not determine if the pendant was absorbing the black gas or if the black gas was entering the pendant.
