My Endless Life.

Chapter 566: Evil Ability
The fact that Nikki's patrol ship had one more person didn't seem like a big deal for the entire patrol ship.

But when the boy named 'Ronnie' came to the patrol ship, the atmosphere inside the patrol ship did change to a certain extent.

The most obvious thing is that everyone has started to pay attention to hygiene.

Originally, when they were uncertain whether the headquarters could find them, everyone should have paid attention to other things, such as whether there were enough survival supplies, whether the shipborne weapons on the warships were intact, and whether the ammunition reserves were sufficient.

These important things are what everyone should care about.

In today's world where even survival may be a problem, it is indeed difficult for people to take small things like hygiene to heart.

However, Ronnie's arrival made everyone start to pay attention to their hygiene.

The water control and wind control superpowers used their abilities to clean this small patrol ship from beginning to end.

Logically speaking, Nikki should stop this behavior of wasting energy and time on unimportant things.

However, when Nikki saw the smile on Ronnie's face, she couldn't bring herself to stop it.

In Nikki's eyes, the boy named "Ronnie" is a pure and innocent angel. Nikki doesn't want the angel in everyone's eyes to live in a filthy place, so she acquiesces to the behavior of everyone on the ship.

But Nikki herself did not realize that only less than three days had passed since Ronnie arrived on the patrol ship, and everyone on the fleet, including Nikki, seemed to have become Ronnie's "subordinates."

This was also something that Li Qi, the person involved, did not expect.

“Horrible… so terrible.”

Sitting in the captain's bedroom, Li Qi held the teacup, sipping black tea gently, and couldn't help but sigh.

It was only three days, or even less than three days, but Li Qi had already experienced the terrifying extent of the love heart under the bonus of love.

Everyone loves him, and everyone gives him what they think is the best, and pampers him like the darling of the group.

For a moment, Li Qi felt like he had traveled through time to a sweet romance novel for females, except that the gender was slightly different.

"This is just the initial application of the Heart of Love. If you can continue to integrate with me and come into contact with the rules I master, even people with higher levels than you can be 'controlled' by you."

Xinlian said to Li Qi with a smug smile on her face.

Li Qi nodded slightly, observing the progress of his current fusion with Xinlian.

Li Qi was a mechanic before, and his own consciousness method was also moving towards that of a mechanic. Moreover, he was a fourth-level mechanic, and his consciousness ability was basically finalized, and he mastered all the skills of a mechanic.

But after merging with Xinlian, the ancient empire's inherited mecha, his consciousness began to slowly change towards the direction of a mecha master.

Changing the direction of consciousness cultivation will cause the consciousness inscriptions engraved on the soul to change. If this change is too rapid, it will bring pain to the person who changed, or even severe damage to the soul!

Therefore, Xinlian could only slowly change Li Qi's consciousness inscriptions first, and then merge with Li Qi.

Because there has to be a process of "change" first, even though Li Qi and Xin Lian have a very high degree of compatibility, the progress of his integration with Xin Lian is not very ideal at the moment.

Three days later, the degree of fusion with Xinlian was less than 5%.

But even this 5% has made Li Qi loved wherever he goes...

This feeling is just... fascinating.

"No, you can't think like that..."

Li Qi, who was almost addicted to this feeling of being favored, shook his head repeatedly.

Using love to deceive others is ultimately an evil way. Being strong yourself is the real strength. After all, the lesson of Xinlian is right in front of us.

If one does things recklessly based solely on the love of others, then one day Li Qi will become like Xin Lian, cut into pieces and thrown into the sea of ​​the world to fend for himself.

And if Li Qi is strong, then even if he really has an accident one day, he can at least ensure his own safety.

But then again, it feels really good to be surrounded by people who like to lick your boots...

Li Qi pursed his lips, suppressed the smile that was about to appear on his face, and suddenly asked Xin Lian:
"Is there something you haven't told me?"

"Huh? What?"

"Why do I feel like I've become more and more narcissistic lately?"

Li Qi, realizing that his mental state was not stable, questioned Xin Lian.

Xinlian asked back: "Isn't it good? You have the right to be narcissistic."

In the entire universe, if even those who hold a heart of love are not qualified to be narcissistic, then who else has such qualifications?
Xinlian thinks it's normal.

Anyway, her previous driver was also very narcissistic.

"I don't like this. Is there any way to eliminate it?" Li Qi put down the tea and asked, trying to calm himself down.

Xinlian thought for a moment and said, "Because your consciousness level is too low, you are affected by me. If you continue to improve your cultivation, the impact will become smaller."

To use a not-so-appropriate analogy, Li Qi's use of the rules controlled by Xinlian is like a child playing with a Guandao.

Although it is not unusable, it is definitely not that easy to control.

If he wants to truly master it, he needs to wait for Li Qi to "grow up", that is, continue to be promoted.

But Li Qi's energy is now sealed, so even if he wants to practice, he can't, so the topic goes back to the starting point.

Li Qi needs to find a way to get rid of these two damn bracelets on his hands first.

And this requires the help of Nikki, who is now fascinated by him.

Speak of the devil, and here it appears. Li Qi had just thought of Nikki when the door of the captain's room was opened. Nikki, dressed in a neat gray military uniform, walked in with food in her hand.

"Ronnie, this is today's lunch."

Nikki said as she placed the lunch which looked pretty good in front of Richie.

Although the resources on this ship were not abundant, Nikki was not stingy at all when it came to Li Qi's food, and treated Li Qi with the best food she could get.

Li Qi thanked Nikki, but seeing her slightly haggard appearance, he still asked with concern:
"Isn't the situation of your fleet very bad right now? Is it really okay for you to take out so much food to entertain me?"

"It's okay." Nikki smiled and said, "There's still plenty of food, and you're a guest, we can't possibly neglect you."

There was no sign of reluctance on Nikki's face, but Li Qi could feel her tiredness and exhaustion.

The energy-blocking bracelet only blocks Li Qi's own energy, such as consciousness and magic power, but it does not block the abilities that Li Qi himself possesses.

His talents of acute five senses and the ability to perceive the physical condition of others were all used normally, so even if Nikki behaved normally, her physical condition could not be hidden from Li Qi's eyes.

It's just that the other person is willing to force himself in front of the "beauty", what can Li Qi say?

He could only accept Nikki's kindness, and then asked about Nikki's current situation during the meal.

"When will you return to the 'foreign country' you mentioned?"

There is no one on Nikki's ship who can unlock the forbidden bracelet. If you want to unlock the forbidden bracelet, you have to go to the foreign country that Nikki mentioned.

Just hearing Li Qi's question, Nikki's face flashed an unnatural look, and then she forced a smile:

"…I'm afraid…not for now."

"The jump drive isn't fixed?"

"No, it will take some time."

Nikki tried to use ambiguous words to speak to Li Qi to avoid making him panic.

But she was indeed not a good actress, and her uneasiness could be seen clearly by not only Li Qi but even Xin Lian.

(Oh no, Richie, we are going to be trapped here and die.)
Xinlian, who had been calm and composed, now felt a little uneasy.

If they were really trapped in this starry sky, Xinlian wouldn't care, but Li Qi would probably starve to death here.

After much difficulty, she found a successor who was a perfect match for her. Xinlian didn't want him to die in such a miserable way in the dark sea of ​​stars.

(It’s okay. I can’t die.)
Li Qi comforted Xinlian.

Not to mention that he still has a backup of consciousness and can be resurrected at home if he dies, the passive ability brought by the second level of the Immortal Heart Sutra is enough to allow Li Qi to survive for a long time without food.

And he believed that Zhao Dongxue would definitely come to find him, after all, the location Zhao Dongxue left behind was still on him.

So my life is still guaranteed for the time being.

But the problem is that it will take some time for Zhao Dongxue to come to Li Qi, and Li Qi doesn't want to wear the energy-blocking bracelet and do nothing during this period.

Seeing that Li Qi was silent, Nikki hesitated to speak.

She really wanted to comfort Li Qi, but the problem was that she herself couldn't guarantee that the patrol ship could be completely safe.

In the end, Nikki just said to Li Qi seriously:
"Don't worry, no matter what happens, I will protect you."

"Thanks……"

boom!
Before Li Qi could finish his perfunctory thanks, the entire patrol ship suddenly shook violently, followed by a shrill alarm, and red and yellow lights flashed alternately in the captain's room, representing danger.

Li Qi's body swayed, and Nikki subconsciously hugged him.

With the beauty in her arms, Nikki should have been very excited, but at this moment, her face was pale and she had no time to think about those messy things.

Because in her perception, three warships painted with skulls suddenly appeared around the patrol ship.

The shaking just now was caused by an attack from one of the pirate ships!

It’s the pirate ships that robbed the patrol earlier, they’ve caught up with us!
Thinking of this, Nikki's face turned extremely ugly. She sensed the strength of the pirates outside, then looked down at the weak boy in her arms. After hesitating for a moment, she gritted her teeth and ran outside with Li Qi.

"Ronnie! Follow me!"

"What's wrong? Where are you going?"

Although he had already guessed what happened, Li Qi still asked symbolically. After all, his current disguised image was that of a pure, innocent and naive girl, and his character couldn't be ruined.

Even though it was an extremely critical situation, Nikki still showed Li Qi a gentle and calm smile and said:

"Take you to a good place."

Li Qi raised his eyebrows, looked at the direction she was running, and realized where Nikki was going to take him.

Nikki wants to take him to where the escape pods are stored.

She wanted Li Qi to run first.
