The first thing that came to mind was his “demon” master, who fed him with a milk bottle. He still remembered it clearly.

He wanted to spit the pacifier out. 

However, a sudden sense of crisis in his spiritual sense made him lurch.

His spiritual sense told him that if he continued with the action he had just performed, he would be in a great crisis.

 

 

Jun Lu was cautious. This was the experience he had accumulated from nearly a year of escaping.

He thought about it and asked in his mind, ‘System, what’s going on?’ 

[The host has equipped you with a powerful piece of defensive gear, please treat it properly.]

 

A powerful defensive gear?

Could it be …… referring to this pacifier? Jun Lue was a little dazed.

Probably seeing his confusion, the system posted the pacifier’s information.

 

Jun Lu read the small words that appeared in front of him and was speechless for a long time.

If what the small words said was true, that the pacifier could not only increase his affinity, but also hide his aura so that enemies could not spy on him, then it was indeed incomparably powerful and practical.

But ……

Why was it this shape? 

He was the Crown Prince of the Empire, how could he hold a pacifier and wander through the city?

However, looking at the three flesh-eating termites in front of him like they were possessed, Jun Lu had to admit that this pacifier was indeed very useful.

He let out a sigh in his heart.

The milk bottle had already been used anyway, so this pacifier should not be that bad, right? And besides the master and the system, no one knew his original identity now. 

After finally preparing himself mentally, Jun Lu followed what the small words said and gently bit the pacifier.

Whatever the material of this pacifier,, it was soft to bite, but not lacking in elasticity.

Then he saw a few termites in front of him suddenly stopped.

Their antennas twitched gently, and although it was clear that he was still at the same place,  they wandered around blindly, as if they had lost their target. 

As Jun Lu observed them, the sucking and biting of the pacifier did not stop.

It was best if they did not shed any blood.

 

These termites are very troublesome and will release pheromones when they are dying. Once contaminated, it will be difficult to remove them.

The pheromone is also a signal for other termites; they will follow this pheromone all the time, and it is a very difficult thing to escape their chase. 

Because of the interference of the pacifier, several of the vanguard ants acted as if they were suddenly blind. Even though they had already touched Jun Lu, they acted as if they could not see.

Finally, after a few turns and no discoveries, they retreated using the same way.

Jun Lu spread his spiritual power out.

He was one of the Light Race; in theory, as long as there is light, it can become his eyes. 

But now that he had regressed back to the infant form and was seriously injured, he could only observe a range of ten meters at most.

He found that the place where he was staying at the moment was a bowl-shaped plush nest, which he didn’t need to think much about to know that his “demon” master had made it.

The master seemed to really treat him like a cub, and although he was grateful for his care, Jun Lu still felt awkward.

After the three vanguard ants crawled out, the swarm of termites began to return the same way.

With a move in mind, Jun Lu used Shadow Binding to trap the two termites that were walking at the end. 

As he manipulated the shadows, a wave of clarity suddenly came to his mind.

Feeling the improvement in the use of his skills, he understood that it must be his “demon” master who helped him level up his skills again.

But the source power in his body had not yet been restored, so what power did his master use to help him upgrade?

Jun Lu felt a little confused, but he did not look deeper, because as his understanding of the shadows deepened, he suddenly had a new idea. 

Only to see the two termites, bound in place by their own shadows and couldn’t break free no matter how hard they struggled. When their companions were some distance away, they were pulled even deeper by the shadows under their feet, sinking into the ground.

[Ding~ Cub has successfully comprehended the skill [Shadow Cage], the skill tree has been lit, can go upgrade immediately!]

 

Yu Xingqiao bought the expansion pack in the mall and expanded the backpack to 100 compartments. Extra inventory space cost 10diamonds each, so minus the 10 inventory spaces he started with, he spent another 90RMB.

Then the system box popped up. 

Hmm? Is the cub awake? And it’s so great, he woke up and comprehended a new skill on his own!

He tapped on the skill tree and looked at it.

[Shadow Cage] was an advanced skill of [Shadow Binding], which served to imprison enemies in their own shadows and could be released when necessary.

This skill required 10 points of source power to upgrade from Lv1 to Lv2, which was double the initial skill. Now the source power value was 0, so the upgrade would have to wait until later. 

Yu Xingqiao closed the skill tree and tapped the button to return.

This was the result of his fiddling with the game interface. It’s said that you can reset the game perspective in a second, which is back to little Jun Lun.

The game screen flickered slightly, then the cat bed he bought for the cub appeared in the middle, just in time to see the little black ball popping out of the nest.

Seeing him alive and kicking, Yu Xingqiao smiled slightly and stretched out his finger to prod his head. 

When he felt the abnormality from his head, Jun Lu couldn’t help but freeze.

He still had a pacifier in his mouth.

In order to conceal the breath of the Light Race, he could only keep …… sucking the pacifier.

This was really too shameful! 

Looking at a row of red bars on the little black ball’s face and his expression turning into / (/ / / / /) / again, Yu Xingqiao couldn’t help holding his cheek and looking at him with a smile.

The soft light in the room sprinkled on the teenager’s face, making his smile look so pure.

Yu Xingqiao tilted his head.

Wonder if little Jun Lu in human form is also this cute? Thinking of that little doll with black hair and red pupils, he felt a pang of anticipation. 

Grow up quickly ah~

Yu Xingqiao rubbed the little black ball’s head again, smiling cheekily, truly experiencing the joy of raising a child.

 

Jun Lu’s face was wooden, sucking on his pacifier as he bounced towards the pile of grass where Arashi was.

Arashi was still gnawing on the eagle’s leg. 

The two grassland black eagles were too big and it would take a while to finish.

Sensing something, it suddenly raised its head and saw the little master jumping over.

It didn’t look too carefully a moment ago, so it was only now that Arashi noticed the appearance of the pacifier in Jun Lu’s mouth. It couldn’t help but tilt its head, hints of curiosity appearing in its turquoise eyes.

Jun Lu pretended not to see its gaze. His eyes fell on the two grassland black eagles. After observing carefully, they finally fell on Arashi. 

He could feel that Arashi’s aura had become stronger again, even stronger than when he turned into the Wind Wolf King.

“Master, you’re awake?”

Arashi let go of the eagle’s leg and shook off the black feathers staining the side of its mouth before standing up and running to Jun Lu, crouching down.

Jun Lu saw the wolf tooth necklace on its neck. 

“Bo Ji Bo Ji ?”

Yu Xingqiao listened to the little black ball’s cry, looked at the translation emerging from the bubble above his head, and couldn’t help but ask: “How can the cub still talk when it’s holding a pacifier?”

[The Light Race don’t make sounds through their mouths.]

So that’s how it is. 

Yu Xingqiao nodded his head and continued to listen to their conversation.

When Arashi heard Jun Lu’s question, he said with some confusion, “Didn’t you give this to me?”

Jun Lu stood still for a second and immediately thought of Yu Xingqiao.

“It’s not me.” He shook his head. “It’s the master.” 

During his coma, it was that demon master of his, who placed him properly, upgraded his skills, equipped him with powerful defensive gears, and upgraded Arashi’s strength again to kill the incoming Black Eagle ……

He seemed to owe more and more ……

 

Arashi tilted his head, a little confused: “Master?”

“Right.” 

Jun Lu’s voice was soft, “It’s my master ……”

Yu Xingqiao looked at the text in the chat bubble of the small black ball and felt something strange at the tip of his heart.

It was a strange feeling.

The feeling of being needed, of being depended on, so foreign to him and yet …… 

So addictive.

Yu Xingqiao touched his heart and looked at the cub more gently.

Jun Lu instead let out a sigh.

The more help he got, the heavier the burden he felt. 

He knew that he was being paid in advance.

He must recover his strength quickly and become the master’s helper as soon as possible. Only this way can he accept it with peace of mind.

Thinking like this, he looked at the corpse of the giant python in the grass and gently jumped over.

Arashi crouched in place, face tangled thinking about something difficult. 

Master’s master, what should that be called?

The python just died not long ago, so the aura of a middle-rank magical beast was still strong, even the flesh-eating termites didn’t dare to come forward to gnaw on its flesh and blood.

Jun Lu was not interested in its flesh and blood.

He jumped to the head of the python, and his shadow tentacles silently probed out. 

Lv3’s shadow tentacles are undoubtedly much more solid than Lv2’s, and their strength had also increased very substantially. If he was able to strangle a cheetah to death at maximum, there was no problem strangling a lion now.

He controlled the tentacles to reach into the mouth of the snake, tore open the python’s flesh and blood and drilled into its brain.

 

Yu Xingqiao watched the little black ball’s actions curiously.

After a while, he saw his shadow tentacle retreating crookedly, with an earthy yellow crystal curled at the front end. 

He tapped Detect.

[Earth Magic Crystal]

Description: From a mid-ranked rock python.

Grade: Intermediate upper grade 

Effect: Contains rich earth source power, can be used as a progression material.

Yu Xingqiao looked at the information and suddenly remembered the alpha wolf that was killed by Arashi.

That wolf should also have magic crystals, right?

Alas, lost it! 

Yu Xingqiao pounded his chest, but he quickly consoled himself again——

After all, the wolves were watching. And Arashi had just become the Wind Wolf King, so if he really dug up the magic crystal of the former wolf king, with the freedom of this game, he would probably get into trouble.

Then he continued to watch the cub’s actions.

The tentacles rolled the earth-coloured magic crystal to his side. While the cub sucked his pacifier, he gently turned the magic crystal upside down, like he was feeling something. 

Finally, he threw the piece of magic crystal on the ground.

Huh, why throw it?

Yu Xingqiao was just about to pick up the magic crystal, when he saw the shadow on the ground suddenly surge up, then dragged the earth magic crystal into the ground.

What kind of operation is this?! 

He took a look at the cub log.

[The cub unleashed [Shadow Cage] on the Earth Magic Crystal]

 

Hmm? So this skill could also be used to store things?
