Chapter 296 You Are Human
After getting the definite answer, Lin Xiaoxiao felt relieved. At this time, she finally had time to pay attention to the members of the official shelter hunting team who were exploring not far away.
The sky and the earth were covered in white, and the wind was biting and cold. The members of the hunting team struggled forward in the knee-deep snow. Everyone carried a small flag on their back. The reflective material of the flag could be seen from a long distance. Lin Xiaoxiao also judged their position by the movement of the flag.
"It seems that Starry Sky has not interfered much with the hunting team. I don't see any characteristics of Starry Sky people among them."
Brushing off the snowflakes on her body, Lin Xiaoxiao changed into a more comfortable posture and hid herself in the angle formed by a collapsed building. She planned to wait here until Li Shiwen and the others returned successfully.
"Master, your conclusion is correct. I did not find that any of them were parasitized by the star soul."
As a pioneer, Ling Hao knew a lot about the star people, so he could easily find out whether humans were parasitized by star creatures, but Lin Xiaoxiao's guess stumped him.
"Logically speaking, if Starry Sky has a way of parasitizing others without anyone noticing, it should be able to control all of humanity in an instant. Why would they bother you to come and find a host? Also, it should be quite simple to control the official shelter. Why did Starry Sky choose to use fanatics to develop a religion to slowly control it?"
Seeing Ling Hao's stunned expression, Lin Xiaoxiao asked in surprise: "Don't you know either?"
"Ah? But that's how it was done before?"
After Ling Hao said this subconsciously, he instantly broke out in a cold sweat, because according to his personality, he should have considered this issue, but he just ignored it. If Lin Xiaoxiao hadn't mentioned it, he would always feel that the starry sky was impossible.
Yes, if you are really omnipotent, why do you still do this?
Why is he unconscious? Is someone controlling his thoughts?
Seeing that Ling Hao was as nervous as a cat with its fur standing on end, Lin Xiaoxiao held his cold and trembling hand.
"Don't think too much. Since we have discovered it, it means we have found a flaw. We may be able to start from this aspect."
Ling Hao moved closer to Lin Xiaoxiao, and his expression gradually returned to normal: "Master, do you want to verify something?"
"Yes, I want to know if the Star Soul can parasitize every human being. Also, how strong are their combat capabilities? Can mental attacks really kill humans instantly?"
Looking at the location of the official shelter, Lin Xiaoxiao's lips curled up: "To be honest, I'm starting to get a little interested in the creatures in the starry sky. It is said that knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in a hundred battles. I'm really curious whether the starry sky is really powerful enough to kill all humans in one move."
In Ling Hao's perception, Lin Xiaoxiao now exudes the desire for control of a superior, which is a kind of confidence and arrogance supported by powerful abilities.
Lin Xiaoxiao was not the first host he came into contact with, but he was the first host who was interested in Starry Sky and wanted to defeat him.
For some reason, Ling Hao felt his heart beating violently and he felt hope.
Holding Lin Xiaoxiao's hand tightly, his voice even trembled: "Okay, let's go together and see if the starry sky is really indestructible."
In the freezing cold at minus 40 degrees Celsius, Ling Hao felt his whole body burning hot. The passion that was about to burst out also surprised Lin Xiaoxiao.
This hint of surprise turned into determination after seeing Ling Hao's shining eyes. She smiled and nodded: "Very good, this is my comrade-in-arms."
Comrades? ! It's comrades!!!
Ling Hao stood there in a daze, with only this sentence echoing in his mind. The strong emotional impact was like a raging fire that almost burned him to the point of losing his mind.
He had only one thought, that was to fight with Lin Xiaoxiao regardless of everything to win their freedom. Freedom was something he had not had for a long, long time.
"Why are you dazed?"
"Ah?" Looking up at Lin Xiaoxiao's smiling face, Ling Hao also smiled: "Okay, we will be comrades-in-arms from now on."
As if he had thought of something, he suddenly stuffed something into Lin Xiaoxiao's hand and said, "Take this. If one day I betray my current self, please put an end to me."
Looking at the palm-sized transparent stone in her hand, Lin Xiaoxiao was curious: "What is this, your energy core?"
"Well, this is the source energy stone that connects the origin of each system. As long as the energy stone is destroyed, I will disappear into thin air."
Looking at the palm-sized stone in the palm of her hand, Lin Xiaoxiao didn't feel that there was any difference between this thing and ordinary stones. If there was any difference, it was that this stone could glow.
Can this stone really decide a person's life or death?
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't understand the starry sky or the system, but she understood humans, so the next moment she threw the stone into the small electric stove that she used for heating.
Under the high temperature, the stone did not move at all. Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Ling Hao's expression and asked, "How is it? Do you feel bad?"
After looking it up and down, Ling Hao shook his head blankly: "No, I didn't feel anything."
Is that so?
Before Ling Hao could react, a corner of the stone was cut off by the giant alloy sword in Lin Xiaoxiao's hand. He subconsciously pounced on the stone and protected it in his arms.
"Why did you do this to me?"
There was a sense of grievance in his tone, but Lin Xiaoxiao's round eyes looked him up and down, and even her hands were touching him dishonestly.
With a red face, Ling Hao asked angrily: "You, what on earth are you going to do?"
"What am I doing? You should ask yourself what you want to do. You are holding a broken stone and claiming it is the source of your soul. Now that the stone has been cut into pieces, aren't you still fine? How is your life related to a piece of stone?"
Rolling her eyes impatiently, Lin Xiaoxiao ignored Ling Hao's attempts to stop her and crushed the stone into pieces. Then she spread her hands and asked, "How's it going? Aren't you alive and well now?"
Touching his face, Ling Hao picked up the scattered stone powder on the ground and felt it again, then suddenly fell silent, but his tears continued to fall like beads from a broken string.
"No, why are you crying? This should be a good thing. After all, no one can threaten you. How can you..."
Lin Xiaoxiao was at a loss as to what to do. After all, she had never comforted a crying man before. Now that she was being held in Ling Hao's arms and crying, she could only awkwardly stretch out her limbs and act like a heartless piece of wood.
It was unknown how long had passed. When Lin Xiaoxiao was feeling a little sleepy, Ling Hao, the koala who was holding her, finally let go. Only then did she find her limbs again, but they were numb and a little bit unlike her own.
Leaning close to the electric heater, Lin Xiaoxiao kneaded her numb hands and feet to comfort Ling Hao, whose eyes were now as red as a rabbit: "Now that there is no threat, you can be a human being in the future. No, you are a complete human being."
Trying hard to open his red and swollen eyes, Ling Hao nodded rapidly: "Okay, fight for the survival of mankind!"
