Chapter 248 The Insect Breeder Sequence
DouDou nodded vigorously, clutching the milky-white medicine tightly to her chest as if it were the most precious treasure in the world.
She looked at Doubao, Kaochang, and Wei Fuzi, who were helping to pack things up not far away, and her little face showed a mixture of joy and struggle.
Xu Si didn't say anything more and turned to float towards his "Nirvana".
He could understand DouDou's dilemma—three children, one bottle of medicine, there always had to be some choices.
As for the strange drop he owes, well, he'll just have to accept it.
Given Ya Ya's initiative, repaying his debts would be no problem at all.
The night seemed even darker than the night before.
The lake remained as black as ink, refusing to reflect any light or shadow, like a sleeping giant beast with its eyes closed.
Leaning against the car, Xing Tong scanned the campsite.
Yang Fan was carefully polishing the silver spear, the blush of excitement still lingering on his face;
Fu Xiaojian and Shao Bing were talking in hushed tones, their gazes occasionally sweeping across the opposite bank of the lake;
Su Su continued practicing that seemingly endless set of punches in the afterglow of the campfire.
Seeing DouDou return, the three of them quickly gathered around her.
"Sister DouDou? Did Brother Dao give you the awakening potion?" DouBao asked first, her voice a little anxious.
"Hmm! Who wants to awaken first?" DouDou hadn't decided who to give the potion to yet.
Upon hearing this, the sausage, which had been leaning forward, shrank back and then looked at Doubao and Master Wei.
Doubao, who had been somewhat anxious, suddenly stopped and paused, while Wei Fuzi, who was lagging behind, also stopped moving forward.
"Give the steamed buns and Master Wei first! I... I..." Despite knowing the opportunity was rare, the sausage still reluctantly refused.
Similarly, Doubao continued, "Give it to Master Wei! Master Wei is older than all of us! He can protect us!"
DouDou bit her lip.
She didn't know how to bring it up—a bottle of medicine, three younger siblings.
"??"
Master Wei looked at his two younger siblings with disbelief, his initial disappointment suddenly filled with something else.
Grandma Xin passed away, and he took it upon himself to take care of them.
But he couldn't bear this responsibility; it all fell on DouDou's shoulders, from beginning to end.
"I..." He rarely spoke, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time, and his voice was somewhat choked as soon as he spoke.
Just then, a hand gently pressed on his shoulder.
Master Wei looked up and saw Teacher Jiang Li.
She walked over at some point, her face appearing exceptionally serene in the firelight.
"You'll take care of them, right?" Jiang Li whispered.
"Yes, I promised Grandma Xin!" Master Wei's eyes were a little moist.
Since the apocalypse, he had completely shut himself off, and this was the most complete sentence he had uttered in a long time.
"Then you should accept it! From now on, you'd better act like a man!"
Jiang Li stepped forward to provide positive guidance to the children. If she had to choose among the three, Master Wei would undoubtedly be the most suitable.
Both in terms of age and temperament, he is more suitable than grilled sausages and steamed buns.
Taking the medicine from DouDou, Master Wei looked at the group with red eyes.
"Drink it now!"
As she spoke, Jiang Li created a small barrier on the spot, trapping Master Wei inside.
A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime.
A few kids were holding an awakening potion; anyone would probably have malicious intentions.
If someone else were forced to drink the medicine, the convoy probably wouldn't pursue the matter too much.
A single sequence of extraordinary beings is, in any case, an indivisible asset to the team.
In the end, it will all come down to compensation for the losses, and the matter will eventually be dropped. That's why Jiang Li came over immediately.
She can guarantee that she has no designs on the potion, but she cannot guarantee that others do not.
Master Wei took the bottle of milky white medicine, his fingers trembling slightly.
Inside the barrier, the milky-white potion shimmered with a pearly luster under the firelight.
He looked at the three tense little faces outside the barrier, took a deep breath, unscrewed the bottle, tilted his head back, and poured the potion down his throat.
The medicine went down my throat without the burning or severe pain I had expected.
Instead, a warm current, with a strange sweetness, slid down the esophagus into the stomach and then quickly spread to the limbs and bones.
The three of them stared intently at Master Wei, imagining that they themselves were the ones awakening at that moment.
Master Wei blinked, and the world before him began to fade and distort.
The eyes were not filled with darkness, but rather with a hazy, amber-colored halo.
A soft, dense rustling sound filled my ears, like the feet of thousands of insects crawling across withered leaves, or the buzzing of insect wings vibrating at high speed, or even like a locust swarm passing by.
Deep within this amber-colored ocean of consciousness, he "saw" it.
Countless tiny, differently shaped insect shadows were solidified in the golden resin.
A beetle poised to take flight, a caterpillar curled up in hibernation, an ant queen with her mouth open...
They retain their original postures from life, sealed in the amber of time, each radiating a faint yet unique life force.
Just as he was about to take a closer look, all the insect shadows in the amber vibrated simultaneously!
"Click...click..."
A subtle cracking sound exploded from the depths of my soul.
Master Wei let out a muffled groan, and his body underwent a tremendous change beyond his control.
Seeing the scene of Master Wei's awakening, Doubao and Kaochang were startled and took several steps back.
Jiang Li and Dou Dou stared worriedly at Master Wei, who had collapsed inside the barrier.
At this moment, beneath Master Wei's skin, it seemed as if countless tiny things were awakening and wriggling, as if countless insects were burrowing into Master Wei's body.
The sight caused DouDou and the others to cover their mouths in horror.
As more and more veins appeared on Wei Fuzi's exposed skin.
In some places, fine, amber-colored net-like patterns have begun to appear, resembling leaf veins or the texture of the earth.
The lines are slightly raised, and something seems to be moving and swelling beneath them.
Master Wei's eyes snapped open, his pupils no longer the normal color, but a murky, ever-changing amber hue.
"Master Wei!" Dou Dou couldn't help but exclaim.
Jiang Li frowned, maintaining the stability of the barrier. She could sense an extremely strange, yet not out-of-control, transformation taking place within Master Wei's body.
Xu Si's star-like eyes had already locked onto this side.
Isn't he being a bit too cruel? I wonder if this little guy can handle the insect breeder's sequence.
However, he really didn't have any other sequence awakening potions left; he couldn't afford to ruin his own brand!
Xu Si's strength lies in his ability to change things up.
Hopefully, the little one will be more receptive to new things!
If you end up like Tang Jinxiu, then the potion has been wasted!
Self-awareness is still the most reliable option, and it also has the highest compatibility!
