Chapter 115 - Chapter 113: Greed

Slightly dizzy, Su'er lost control of his body and fell backward, sitting on the ground.

It didn't break, it still didn't break.

There wasn't even a struggle.

Concentrating his consciousness in the pain, Su'er watched the monster in front of him raise its tentacles and swing them up and down according to his will, and then watched it turn around obediently in place, obedient like a trained puppy... but it definitely looked much scarier than a puppy.

The only one who could keep such a terrible monster as a pet must be some evil god, right? Su'er thought with a sense of joy in misery.

He wanted to command the monster to break all its tentacles, but he was afraid the pain would make it break free from his control. But wait, was he really in control of this monster?

Asking himself unconfidently, Su'er closed his eyes to feel it more clearly.

The Werebeast, whose suitability for spirit is only slightly better than that of humans, can easily break free from their control. Could this monster, with spirit flowing throughout its body, really be controlled so easily?

"Is this considered a successful activation?" A curious question came from his ear. Think had been watching the scene quietly since she finished bandaging the wound for Su'er, and only asked after she saw the monster doing something against common sense.

Even though the flow of spirit in her body was restricted by the lock ring, the woman could still see the spirit in the air that Su'er could not. She was 100% sure that there was absolutely no abnormal movement of spirit just now. It even looked like Su'er and the monster were acting a drama in tacit understanding. After the two remained motionless for a while, they declared that the magic was successfully cast.

Is this really magic?

Think, who witnessed the whole process for the first time, silently judged in her heart. She remembered the words said by the god of the dwarves, the vigilance against Su'er... Was she a little too arrogant in the past?

"Is it considered a success?" Su'er himself answered uncertainly, not knowing what Think was thinking. Just now, he had probably discovered something.

Just as he felt before, even though this twisted monster had a large number of spirits, it did not have the slightest consciousness of wanting to break free and resist—it was better to say that it still welcomed and longed for such a connection, without any rejection.

It loved Su'er's blood and the trace of soul contained in the blood, and at the same time did not resist the strange connection brought by this blood and Su'er.

It could break free, and it only needed to use a little force to break the thread, but it would not even have such an idea.

This twisted monster just longed for such blood and flesh, such soul, more, and more...

Suddenly awakened, Su'er found that when he fell into deep thought, this monster had unknowingly approached his body, and it was the strong fishy smell that woke him up.

Four blurred eyes stared at him so closely, as if they were staring at a moving piece of meat, without any vitality.

With his hair standing on end, Su'er moved back and handed his dagger to Think.

"Do you want to kill it?" Think turned the dagger in her hand with regret and said casually: "Such an alienated vampire is a rare and interesting subject. It feels a bit like a waste~"

"Taking a step back, isn't it a good thing to keep it for hunting or as a protector for us?"

Think's words tempted Su'er.

Although it sounded very tempting, Su'er finally shook his head vigorously.

"No, it's still too dangerous." Su'er turned over while controlling the monster lying on the spot with his mind. While guessing where its heart would be, he pointed to the hole on the side of the monster that had been rotten to the point of being unrecognizable and constantly spewing out crimson blood mist.

He quietly observed the position of the abdomen and the place where the heartbeat came from.

"Let's not talk about how long my ability can control it. It's already a big target, right? Keeping it around is just another layer of danger," said Su'er dully, "and I always have a sense of panic... If I keep it, I don't know when it will swallow me quietly... I'd better kill it." Under Su'er's control, the monster had exposed its soft belly, and all its tentacles were trying their best to open, like a lamb to be slaughtered, but neither Su'er nor Think would regard it as a fragile creature. "Hmm~, Mr. Monkey is more cautious than I thought~", the dagger in her hand turned lightly. Think held the handle of the dagger and carefully approached the lying monster, "I thought you would use it as a bargaining chip with me... Are you really not going to consider it again? With such a monster in hand, you will have the power to resist even if I regret it in the future?"

"...Can you be faster?" Su'er interrupted her weakly, "Is it fun to make such a joke?"

"Hmm~, it's very interesting~"

Although she said light words, Think, who had been injured many times and had not recovered, was not in good physical condition at the moment. She avoided the range that the tentacles might reach and carefully went around to a safe enough angle—at least enough to give her enough time to react.

"Are you ready, Mr. Monkey?"

"Ah, come on."

Taking a deep breath, Su'er cleared the distracting thoughts in his mind and began to endlessly circle a sentence in his mind.

[Don't move, don't move, don't move, don't move, don't move!]

Swish!!!

The dagger flashing with cold light was stabbed hard!

Bang!!!

Almost at the moment when a sharp insect chirped, Think, who was well prepared, was directly knocked out before she could even dodge!

After rubbing against the ground several times, she barely stopped. A broken sharp spider limb was inserted into Think's thigh, and it was only a little bit away from piercing her lower abdomen and tearing her internal organs.

The pain and the instinct of life being threatened made this twisted monster fight back instinctively. It was a completely subconscious reaction. The dagger pierced deeply into its soft abdomen, and even the handle of the dagger was immersed in it. It screamed piercingly, and its tentacles angrily tore the surrounding rocks.

The monster crawled around Su'er frantically, but even so Su'er still clearly felt that the silk thread was still not broken!

Even though it was so seriously injured, this twisted monster never broke free from this invisible silk thread!

It can't bear to part with it!
