blue whales under the stars

Chapter 25

For human beings, time is a very wonderful thing.It can be perceived, the loss is clear, but it cannot be controlled.It has its own strict and rigid way of moving, and it does not shift due to the wishes of external objects, but people can feel the two extremes of long and fleeting from the rigid time.

When he witnessed Mr. Lanjing being besieged by more than a dozen long arrows, Mu Ye had already experienced the length of a moment.Up to now, when the bloody mouth full of fangs was biting towards him, Mu Ye experienced this moment of being forcibly elongated for the second time in a short period of time.

The first time, he quickly passed out.And until now, Mu Ye didn't know the reason for his coma that day.He only remembered that when he woke up, his whole body was sore and weak, and his limbs were weak, and it took two or three days of rest before he regained his strength.But now, Mu Ye once again experienced the rapid loss of power. With the previous experience, he didn't faint directly, but just knelt on the grass, and he didn't even have the strength to dodge.

But the Ke Luo beast that approached Mu Ye disguised as a harmless little beast was not affected at all.Not only that, it also distractedly threw out a series of water arrows to stop Bai Cang who was rushing over.

If it was in Bai Cang's heyday, this Ke Luo beast would never be his opponent, but now, this Ke Luo beast that has successfully advanced to the ninth level already has enough power to destroy the city and the pool, Bai Cang There is no way to compete with it.If it weren't for those hateful human beings bullying the few, the Keluo beast would have razed this place to the ground because of anger, and it would never hide its whereabouts and have scruples like it is now.

In fact, although the Koro beasts are not very friendly, they are not usually violent. They are rare in number and are used to hiding. The chance of contact with humans is very small. If they are not provoked, they will not actively attack humans.But this Ke Luo beast has been harassed for several days, and even the advancement was almost interrupted.It has lost its mind now, and is extremely disgusted with all human beings.

This is also the reason why the Keluo beast urgently appeared. It followed its instincts - if it could swallow the human with an exceptionally good smell in one gulp, the remaining humans would no longer be able to influence it.

The sharp fangs were clenched together, hitting the protection under the white cang cloth.Keluo beast and Baicang are both water elements, and there is no additional attribute of mutual restraint between the elements. This kind of confrontation becomes a pure confrontation of strength.The ban can only resist dangers that are less capable than the giver, so the spherical protection didn't resist for a long time, almost just a pause, and the Koro beast bit through Bai Cang's ban,

Watching the sharp fangs biting towards him, Mu Ye had no doubt that he would be directly bitten through by the opponent. His strength was almost exhausted, but it didn't play any role.He could even feel the breath coming out of the Koro beast's mouth, and death followed him like a shadow, but he wasn't ready for it.

Mu Ye suddenly felt a burning sensation in his neck.

In fact, Mu Ye couldn't tell whether it was the blood gushing from his shoulder being bitten, or the last feeling before he died due to his heartbeat being too fast.He looked in the direction of Mr. Blue Whale from afar. He still had a lot to say, and those words rolling in his chest were enough to make his heart burn.

But this is all Mu Ye's illusion, luckily it's just his illusion.

A ball of light emitting a dazzling light rose from his chest, and Mu Ye felt a slight tightening at the back of his neck, and then his chest became empty.The ring that was originally hanging around his neck hung in front of him, and the dazzling light gradually enlarged, gradually covering up the crazy Koro beast.

Before the Keluo beast lost control of the pain, a hand came over, pressed on Mu Ye's shoulder, and pulled out the fangs embedded in Mu Ye's shoulder very quickly.Mu Ye gasped in pain, and in the next second, he was hugged horizontally and quickly retreated a few steps away.

Bai Cang's breathing was heavier than Mu Ye's. He summoned a ball of water to support Mu Ye, and after placing him in place, he covered the wound on Mu Ye's shoulder with a thin layer of water, temporarily suppressing the outflow of blood. .He didn't have time to explain anything to Mu Ye, he just took a breath and collected the blood from Shaokou's wound.

The blood beads were peeled off from the clothes and skin, and gathered into a small ball of blood like water droplets.Holding the ball of blood with his palm, Bai Cang walked towards Ke Luo Beast.The light there had been amplified to the point that it covered the Koro beast, and it was completely impossible to see what was going on.Mu Ye was so stabbed that he couldn't open his eyes, so he could only half cover his eyes with his uninjured hand, watching Mr. Lanjing's back being engulfed by the dazzling silver light.

Only the violent beating of the heart was the most active in the sore and limp body. Mu Ye hadn't completely escaped from the shadow of death just now, but at this moment, he had an even more uneasy premonition.Although the silver ring had been detached from his neck, Mu Ye could still faintly feel the violent fluctuations coming from there.

Why did the Koro beast appear here, and why did it eat itself?Why does the ring I have been wearing since I was a child suddenly glow, and what about Mr. Blue Whale... Is he injured?

Not long after Bai Cang walked into the light, Mu Ye suddenly realized that his connection with Yin Jie had been strengthened.The ring was originally only used by him as a storage tool, but looking at it now, it seems to have become an independent space, like a key.Accompanied by this feeling is a strange irritability and hostility, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.

Mu Ye barely concentrated and helped Yin Jie fight against this aggressive force.He was already injured, and the process of the wrestling gave him a splitting headache and nausea.Just when Mu Ye could hardly hold on anymore, a gentle and cool consciousness like a sea wave suddenly flooded into his mind, gently submerging him who was almost exhausted.

This awareness not only appeased the weakened Mu Ye, but also helped him push forward the difficult confrontation.I don't know how long it took, Mu Ye's mind was finally completely surrounded by cold waves, the strong fluctuations of restlessness were completely suppressed and expelled, leaving only a piece of gentle waves around him.

Mu Ye opened his eyes with difficulty, and in his blurred vision, a ball of silver light suddenly flew towards him.Immediately, he felt his right hand warm up, and when he looked down, the originally simple and unpretentious silver ring was now stunning and eye-catching, and it was automatically put on the middle finger of Mu Ye's right hand.

This unexpected development made Mu Ye unable to react for a while.For some reason, he always felt that he had seen the most dazzling appearance of this ring.It's just that no matter how hard Mu Ye tried, he couldn't remember where these memories belonged.While he was thinking wildly, the ring's light had slowly spread out, and the slightly hot silver light covered his forearm from his middle finger.After the light slowly dissipated, a thin silver-blue glove covering the middle finger covered Mu Ye's right hand.

The material of the glove cannot be seen, but it wraps Mu Ye's right hand in an unusually docile manner, completely outlining the unique beautiful lines of the boy.Mu Ye turned his wrist, he hardly felt any sense of restraint and stagnation, nor did he feel any strange discomfort.With a thought, the things that were originally hidden in the storage ring appeared in his consciousness. Although it was different from the previous method of using consciousness to probe into and retrieve things, the storage function could still be used.Even if the silver ring changed its shape, the things that had been put aside did not disappear.

The shape-changed ring has obviously improved by more than one level compared to the simple and clean storage tool before, but Mu Ye doesn't have much thought to study it carefully yet.He raised his head and looked forward, the figure of Ko Luo Beast had disappeared, and only Bai Cang with his back turned was left in place.Mu Ye's strength didn't recover, and he couldn't get off the water polo. He yelled at Bai Cang, but saw the back of Bai Cang shake, and then his body fell forward, and he fell directly to the ground.

Mu Ye almost fell off the water polo.

After Mr. Blue Whale passed out, the water polo maintained by his strength slowly disappeared in place, and Mu Ye slowly fell to the ground, kneeling on the low grass.The wound on his shoulder that was originally covered by the water also lost its resistance, and blood oozes out again.From losing strength to now, Mu Ye hasn't had time to recover much, and he can't even stand up.But he couldn't leave Mr. Blue Whale alone, and they made such a big commotion, there was no guarantee that people nearby wouldn't notice it, and they might even recruit those powerful warriors and magicians again.

Mu Ye gritted his teeth slightly, and stretched out his right hand with a finger cuff to cover his injured shoulder, trying to stop the blood flow with his remaining strength.But unexpectedly, the force exerted from the right hand was gentle and steady, and there was not much sign of loss of force.Mu Ye was slightly taken aback, but he couldn't care less at this moment, he continued to use the healing technique, and the hideous bite began to heal at an almost unbelievable speed.

Silver-blue gloves made from rings.Gradually playing its role.

It took about a quarter of an hour for the wound to heal, and this process was several times faster than Mu Ye's previous healing, but for Mu Ye who was worried about Bai Cang, this period of time was enough to become a long torment.After the wound healed, his dizziness also eased a lot.Mu Ye managed to recover a little bit, and then supported the ground. After several efforts, he finally stood up from the ground with difficulty.

He staggered towards Bai Cang's direction. In just a few steps, Mu Ye was panting and coughing, and had to stop twice on the way.When he walked to Bai Cang's side, his legs almost gave way and he knelt down on the ground.

Mu Ye breathed a sigh of relief, he first checked Mr. Lanjing's back, and found no obvious trauma on the other person, but when Mu Ye tried his best to push him sideways, the man's pale face was shocking. shocking.

What happened to Mr. Blue Whale?Mu Ye's heart began to beat uncomfortably violently again.He took a long breath, and carefully wiped off the dust on the opponent's face with his cuff.Although no trauma was found on the man, but with an attitude of trying, Mu Ye began to try to use his right hand to help the man recover.He searched for several locations, finally chose the location of the human heart, and began to perform the healing technique.

Maybe Mr. Blue Whale has an injury in his body, or maybe the ring has played a role. When Mu Ye moved, a thin layer of silver-blue light slowly appeared on the surface of the glove, and the light was slowly absorbed by the unconscious Bai Cang. I also feel that something in my body is slowly disappearing.

He didn't worry about himself, because as the light passed, Mr. Lanjing's complexion gradually improved, and some blood gradually appeared on his chapped lips.While continuing the healing technique, Mu Ye took out a bottle of water from the ring and placed it on the open space beside Bai Cang.Although Mr. Blue Whale is a marine creature and has a strong ability to manipulate water, he is now in a coma, and Mu Ye is still prepared for the other party to be thirsty when he wakes up.

It took several times longer to treat Bai Cang than himself, and it took a full quarter of an hour before Bai Cang showed signs of waking up.Mu Ye's strength was exhausted again, not only that, but he also felt extremely empty and tired, almost falling asleep while sitting.

Mu Yeqiang pulled himself together and didn't dare to breathe a sigh of relief until he saw the person slowly opening his eyes.

"Are you okay?" he asked dryly.

Bai Cang looked at him with tired gray-blue eyes, and opened and closed his lips a few times.

Mu Ye didn't hear clearly, he turned his head a little closer, and when Mr. Lan Jing spoke again, his voice was still indistinct.He leaned down a little more, his ears almost touching the bridge of the other's high nose.

Then Mu Ye's side face felt a little cool, his soft cheeks were scraped lightly by dry lips, and Bai Cang kissed him.

From Bai Cang's point of view, within his line of sight, Mu Ye's ears turned red visibly.

Bai Cang showed a slight smile, Mu Ye sat up straight quickly, covered the side of his face with the back of his hand, took two deep breaths, and dared to turn his head to meet Mr. Lan Jing's eyes.Bai Cang was looking at him unblinkingly with those gray-blue eyes, Mu Ye wanted to say something, but at last hesitated, closed his mouth first, leaned down and kissed Bai Cang's forehead.

Mu Ye whispered, "You've worked hard again this time."

Bai Cang's voice was slightly hoarse, with a low tone, like a hand gently plucking at the tip of his heart.He said, "You too."

Bai Cang recovered much faster than Mu Ye. Before Mu Ye could stand up on his own, he had already recovered to move freely, covering up the too obvious traces around him one by one.After doing this, he walked back and looked at the glove that appeared out of thin air on Mu Ye's right hand, without any surprise on his face.Picking up the man from the ground, Bai Cang said to the boy in his arms, "Try using your right hand to cover up the surroundings."

Mu Ye looked bewildered, and asked honestly, "What should I do...?"

Bai Cang taught him a difficult spell password.

Mu Ye memorized it after listening to it once, and after Mr. Lanjing repeated and confirmed it again, he silently repeated this strange spell.

This is a spell used by human magicians to hide their aura. Bai Cang didn't hold out much hope at first. He was thinking about the characteristics of the Koro beast when it used its concealment skills, when suddenly there was a wave in his arms.Taking Mu Ye's right hand as the origin, a large area around was covered by fluctuations, and the remaining magical elemental breath was forcibly concealed. After the concealment disappeared, these magical elements should almost be dispersed.

Bai Cang couldn't help but feel a little complicated. His guess probably came true.

Mu Ye hadn't mastered the detection of elemental energy yet, so he didn't know if his actions just now were useful. He looked up at the man, and Bai Cang turned his head to rub the tip of his nose with the bridge of his nose.

"Ono is amazing."

Mu Ye wrinkled the tip of his nose, and said honestly, "I think it's because this glove is so powerful..."

He raised his right hand and turned his wrist, the silver-blue glove reflected a little delicate light.Something flashed through his consciousness, and Mu Ye murmured, "I seem to know its name."

While holding him in his arms, Bai Cang continued to walk forward, while continuing, "What's its name?"

"Xing..." Mu Ye frowned and thought seriously, "It should be Xing..."

He stared at his right hand, the exquisitely styled finger cot was extremely familiar.Mu Ye read softly: "...Xingman."

A name is a contract, an extremely important relationship.Mu Ye knew about this from a very young age.

When he called out Xingman's name, a warm current flowed down his right hand to his heart.Mu Ye's consciousness was suddenly bumped by something, and he soon saw a strange world.

Mu Ye opened his mouth wide, and even the exclamation was silenced by surprise.His consciousness has entered a brand new world, where the surroundings are empty and silent, with no end in sight.There are many round and bright balls hanging in the air, and there are miniature patterns inside each ball. Mu Ye took a closer look and found that there were some things like books, clothes, and even closed doors inside. This is only what he can recognize, and there are some unfamiliar objects that he can't recognize. They all stay quietly in the sphere. Countless bright spheres are scattered in this invisible space. Just thinking about it, Also be amazed by what is stored here.

Mu Ye was surprised and at a loss, a calm voice pulled him back to consciousness.Bai Cang said: "Don't rush to look at it, we will check it carefully when we get to Tamar City and find a quiet place."

Mu Ye nodded, and was about to withdraw from his consciousness when he caught a glimpse of a ball filled with white out of the corner of his eye.

"Ah...!" Mu Ye exclaimed in surprise, "Yes, it's that Ke Luo beast?"

Bai Cang said, "Don't touch him."

Mu Ye gave up the idea of ​​getting closer to investigate, and stared at the ball carefully.Inside the ball of light was the little beast that was first seen. It was covered in snow-white and soft long fur, and there was a long furry tail behind it.It closed its eyes and didn't move a little.

Mu Ye was surprised: "How did it get in...?"

Bai Cang said: "Xingman sealed him."

He explained one more sentence: "Until your strength is no match for him, he will sleep forever. Don't touch him, let him stay inside by himself."

Mu Ye was still a little unbelievable. He originally thought that the little beast was the disguise of the Ke Luo beast, but he didn't expect it to be the prototype of the Ke Luo beast.He compared the violent brown monster with the length of two people, and couldn't help but feel some subtle feelings.

He asked: "Then what happens after I am better than him?"

Mu Ye still doesn't know much about the power of elements, and he doesn't know what the power of a ninth-order primordial beast means. If anyone on the mainland heard an example of a premise that is more powerful than a ninth-order beast from a person who has not yet started, except Laughing at sarcasm, no second attitude is possible.Bai Cang didn't notice any difference, he said: "When you are stronger than him, he will wake up again and let his power be used by you."

What Bai Cang said was general, Mu Ye didn't know about it, so he didn't ask.He was thinking about another thing: "But it looked so fierce before... Will it listen to us?"

Bai Cang laughed softly: "At that time, it can't beat you anymore."

...seems to be true.

Mu Ye withdrew from his consciousness and looked at his right hand again.It seems that it was Xingman who sealed Keluo beast just now and saved him and Mr. Blue Whale.Thinking of the adventure just now, Mu Ye had to think about another thorny question: "Then, those people before... Oliver Magister and the others, will they come after them?"

Although he had a good impression of Sally and Oliver, he could clearly feel the arrogance and indifference of these high-level practitioners themselves.If they really followed the trail of the Ke Luo beast and wanted to capture the Ke Luo beast, then I am afraid that the two of them would be taken away in the end.

Bai Cang reassured: "The greatest natural advantage of Keluo Beast lies in his concealment skills. After Xingman sealed him, he also took over the ability to take over this aspect. The group of people had been deceived by Ke Luo Beast before and sent them to another place. One direction, and now it's even more impossible to perceive."

In fact, Bai Cang was also within the scope of being deceived by Ke Luo beast.In the past few days, he often searches for high-level auras. After that strong fluctuation, the auras of dozens of high-level powerhouses have moved to another direction. The distance is increasing.That's why Bai Cang mistakenly thought that the high-level practitioner had already left after he succeeded.

In this way, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.Bai Cang was worried that Mu Ye's special ability would make him inconvenient in his college life in the future. With the star man who sealed the Ke Luo beast, now Mu Ye can completely pretend to be an ordinary elemental magician—this one The ninth-level Keluo beast, when promoted from the eighth-level, evolved a higher level of innate skills. In addition to hiding, it can also disguise a fake breath.Bai Cang also discovered this after he was deceived by it together with the high-ranking powerhouses, and now he noticed the changes in Xingman.

Although those high-ranking powerhouses had made full preparations, they did not expect that the innate skills of Koromon would be upgraded along with the advancement, so they were perfectly deceived by Koromon together.

Mu Ye was a little relieved. What he didn't understand was why Xingman would suddenly transform from the originally inconspicuous ring. When he asked this question, Mr. Lanjing paused for a while before whispering Said: "I forcibly woke up Xingman."

If according to the original plan, Xingman's ability should be recovered by Mu Ye himself.After re-domesticating Bai Cang, with several exchanges between the two, Mu Ye's ability has begun to improve rapidly.Even if this speed of progress is placed in the three major magic academies, few people can match it.But compared to the long detection of magic elements, such progress is not enough to deal with the difficulties ahead.

That's why Bai Cang used his own power to forcibly wake up Xingman with the help of companion beasts, and then used Mu Ye's blood to complete the connection between Mu Ye and Xingman.

Mu Ye was completely unaware of the problem of leapfrogging, he was concerned about the safety of Mr. Lanjing: "Then you were very dangerous just now..."

Bai Cang came back to his senses, and smiled lightly: "Didn't Xiaoye cure me?"

Mu Ye stared at him and asked again, and he was a little relieved when Mr. Lan Jing answered with certainty that he was fine.He couldn't help feeling a little thankful for Xingman's ability, otherwise, neither of them might be able to leave that place now.

Thinking of the thrill just now, Mu Ye still had some remaining panic, he sighed: "Why did that Ke Luo beast chase after it...it's strange."

Bai Cang's footsteps paused, and he quickly returned to normal and continued to walk forward.He naturally knew the reason why the Ke Luo beast was chasing him, and he could even guess why the two of them happened to meet this ninth-order primordial beast that shouldn't have appeared in such a remote area at all.

But now, he can't say so much to Mu Ye.

Bai Cang shifted the key to Xingman, he said: "Xingman's real ability is very similar to that of Keluo Beast."

Mu Ye's eyes widened. He still remembered what Mr. Lanjing said before: "Can stars be used to predict?"

Bai Cang didn't give him an accurate answer: "Ono needs to take his time to see this."

"So far, Xingman has only been lifted from the first layer of seal, its true ability requires you to explore." He said, "When Xiaoye becomes more powerful, it will also follow in your footsteps. "

Accompanied growth attribute is one of the most precious characteristics of Xingman.

"Ke Luo Beast probably wants to snatch Xingman away." Bai Cang said, "Before Xingman recognizes its master, its breath will also attract Yuan Beast."

Mu Ye couldn't help but whispered: "It's so fierce..."

Bai Cang couldn't help but tighten his grip on the young man.The scene of the recovered Ke Luo beast opening its mouth full of fangs and biting down on Mu Ye is still vivid in my memory. Although he got a good result, it doesn't mean he won't be afraid.

Bai Cang said in a low voice: "Ke Luo Beast was chased by those high-level powerhouses for too long before, and his goodwill towards humans has completely disappeared, so he directly attacked you."

Mu Ye let out a "huh" and said, "It's so cute when it gets smaller."

Thinking of his previous feelings, Mu Ye couldn't help but frowned: "Besides, the first time I saw Ke Luo Beast, I thought it was very familiar, and I really wanted to get close to it."

He was a little frustrated: "It's a pity that it doesn't like me..."

Bai Cang's heart tightened, and the worry from the previous concealment almost rushed out of his chest.The Ke Luo beast was originally the most suitable creature for Mu Ye to domesticate, whether it was in the past... or now.

But he will not give up his little prince.

Bai Cang took a deep breath, he lowered his head, the bright sun was shining in the wilderness, the warm light jumped from the tip of his hair, and poured on Mu Ye's shoulder.

Mu Ye closed his eyes, and was gently kissed by a cool touch on his cheek.

He heard a whisper: "Xiao Ye is mine, I don't like him."

This sentence sounds a bit excessive at first glance, and it seems to be mixed with some emotions that have crossed the line.But when it was said by Mr. Blue Whale, the arrogance, domineering and anger on the outside had already been isolated in advance.

The outer shell is peeled off layer by layer, leaving only the inner core, which glows warmly for a long time.

Mu Ye replied softly: "I like you too."

——whale——whale——whale——whale——

The place where the Koro Beast was sealed was only twenty miles away from Tamar City. The two proceeded cautiously along the way, and with the help of Xingman, they finally encountered no accidents on the way to Tamar City.

When there was only the last day of the trip, Mu Ye had already recovered more than half.Bai Cang's physique is much stronger than his, and his energy has fully recovered.Before, Mu Ye was worried about the sequelae of Mr. Lanjing's forced awakening of Xingman, but after these two days of observation, Bai Cang's strength has improved a little, reaching the peak state of the eighth order.After confirming, Mu Ye was relieved.

Bai Cang secretly heaved a sigh of relief.If he continues to drop ranks, I'm afraid he won't even be able to guarantee Mu Ye's safety.Now his strength is starting to pick up gradually, Mu Ye's progress is visible to the naked eye, Xingman has opened the first layer of seal, unless there is another accident like Koro Beast, otherwise, let alone in Tamar City, even if it is Traveling through the three major powers, there will be no more side effects.

Even if they meet a powerhouse above the ninth rank, the skills that Xingman has absorbed from Koro Beast are enough to protect the two of them.

They came to Tamar City according to the original plan.Tamar City is located at the corner of the coast, and its natural geographical advantages have brought it rich natural resources and excellent transportation conditions. That's why a large-scale city has been developed on this remote coast.As early as five miles away from Tamar City, the two met several waves of caravans, and the flow of people passing here was more than an order of magnitude more than the previous town.

Bai Cang and Mu Ye wanted to find the meeting point for St. Paul's preparatory students in Tamar City, so the goal was fairly clear.In order to allow enough time for the journey, the deadline for the preparatory students to gather is only two weeks, and they happen to be within the second week.

When he arrived at Tamar City, Mu Ye looked at the densely built and crowded city from a distance, and then turned his head to look at Mr. Lan Jing beside him.

Bai Cang looked back at him, and lightly squeezed the young man's warm palm in his palm.

"Let's go."
