Talulah, I'm still a child.

Mostima's calls made the little fox and Cecilia, who hadn't had enough fun, reluctantly put away their game consoles. However, even during meals, the two little ones didn't seem to want to separate, but instead sat together.

Unlike Mostima and Felia, there were no obstacles between Meixue and Cecilia. The little fox swayed its tail and ate with Cecilia.

"Brother Meixue, this, this, and this are all delicious!"

Cecilia tirelessly tossed all her favorite dishes into Mei Xue's bowl, but for the little fox who was used to eating rice in Lungmen and Rhodes Island, these were all a bit hard to eat, mainly because he hadn't told Cecilia that he didn't eat meat.

Perhaps sensing Mei Xue's predicament, Mostima smiled helplessly and reached out to help him put all the non-vegetarian items into his own bowl.

"Mei Xue needs to recuperate during this period and is not suitable to eat meat or greasy food."

"Is that right?"

Cecilia glanced at Mei Xue, nodded firmly, and gave Mostima a grateful look. Clearly, the little fox really didn't want to eat these things, even though they looked delicious, but Mei Xue chose to refuse them physiologically.

However, this little incident did not affect the harmonious atmosphere at the table. Watching Cecilia and Meixue eat and chat happily, Mostima and Felia felt for some reason that they were superfluous.

Whether it's Mei Xue or Cecilia, they seem to only have eyes for each other. The world of children is so simple that there is no place for the two adults.

(That heartless little thing, could it be that he's taken a liking to her?)

(Cecilia's appearance... could it really be that she's in a puppy love?)

Mostima and Felia thought of the same thing at the same time, but they didn't know what to say, since Meixue and Cecilia were really just chatting and eating.

Neither Mei Xue nor Cecilia harbored any romantic feelings for each other; they were simply kindred spirits at the moment and therefore preferred to communicate with one another.

Felia couldn't help but feel gratified, because Cecilia smiled more often than usual today. In fact, she hadn't stopped smiling since the moment she met Meixue, and the corners of her mouth were always turned up.

Lunch passed in this inexplicable atmosphere. Mei Xue and Cecilia returned to the sofa and sat down. This time, instead of playing games, they watched TV together. After traveling for several days, Mei Xue didn't even know which episode of Kamen Rider had been released.

Of course, Cecilia seemed to prefer watching In the Night Garden. She and Mei Xue each held a tail and stared intently at the images on the television screen.

But perhaps because she was a little full, or perhaps because she had gotten up too early, Cecilia soon started yawning. To show her sincerity, Mostima chose to leave alone, while Felia went back to her room to make a phone call.

Mei Xue felt her shoulders grow heavier. The little fox turned around and found that Cecilia had fallen asleep. He carefully placed Cecilia on the sofa and used his tail as a pillow for her. He then took out the blanket that Cecilia had given him before and covered her with it.

"I'll take a nap too."

Thinking this, Mei Xue closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa. He wanted to take this time to find the Sirens and hoped that they were all safe and sound.

Meanwhile, at the Sirens base in R'lyeh in Iberia, Amaya and the others were quite puzzled by the ten-sided die in their hands. They had been conducting various studies on it ever since they found it.

But no matter what method they used, they just couldn't figure out the nature of this thing, and they couldn't even identify the material. It didn't react to fire or lasers, and even cutting it with a knife didn't leave any marks. Even when Gatanothor punched it, the thing was completely unharmed. Ah, but Gatanothor bled.

"The composition and purpose are unknown, but I clearly heard it at that time. This thing should have had some kind of reaction."

Amaya scratched her head, completely baffled as to what was going on. She only remembered that the die had rolled a number at that time, and she wondered if what happened afterward was because of it.

Regardless, the fact that this thing can awaken the nascent creatures in the deep sea from their slumber and make them chase after them relentlessly speaks volumes about its importance.

"But sister, do we really not need to worry about that thing? I have a feeling..."

The thoughts of Number 89 flowed through the minds of every sister, and they all subconsciously began to analyze. After all, everyone had heard that wave that covered all other sounds at that time. It was that thing that caused the great silence in Iberia. However, because the Sirens communicated through a mental network, this trick was useless.

However, a "newborn" has already awakened, and He will inevitably guide Hai Si to take action. The situation in Agor is still quite complicated. Amaya is certain that some people in Agor have already sided with Hai Si.

"We need to accelerate the pace of evolution and scientific research."

With a long sigh, Amaya also had a headache. The evolutionary paths of the Sirens and the Sealings had diverged. One side was pursuing fewer individuals but higher individual levels, while the other side was completely focused on quantity. Unfortunately, the various countries of Terra were still fighting for power over trivial matters.

"Where is Levy?"

"Reporting to you, elder sister, he locked himself in the lab for a while and hasn't made a sound since."

"No movement? Never mind, let's go check..."

Before Amaya could finish speaking, the mental fluctuations emanating from Mei Xue instantly stopped all the sirens in their tracks. The girls looked at each other, then decisively put Levi out of their minds and chose to fall asleep immediately, drifting into a deep sleep.

A massive mental network formed among the Sirens, with the Eye of Iberia behind them serving as the best medium for projecting signals. The surrounding sea creatures sensed the danger instinctively and scattered, no longer daring to approach.

As soon as Mei Xue logged onto the network, she immediately felt her feet lose their grounded feeling, and the little fox began to struggle without thinking.

"Ghost Shark Sister, let me go!"

In terms of height alone, only Ghost Shark could lift Mei Xue up high, even though she isn't particularly tall herself.

"It's been so long since we last met, so let me hug you a little longer."

Ghost Shark held Mei Xue in his arms, not minding that Mei Xue's head was resting on his chest. Instead, he took the initiative to open his mouth and gently nibble on Mei Xue's fox ear, making the little fox go limp.

“While you were away from Rhodes Island, those guys acted like they’d lost their souls.”

"Skadi and the others?"

"Yes, and your little girlfriend named Rosemary, she was in such a bad mood today that she almost demolished the Rhodes Island training ground."

Although the trip wasn't boring for Mei Xue, it was quite torturous for Rosemary. She couldn't chat with Mei Xue online like Lily of the Valley could, and today she even vented her frustration on the pitiful target.

"She's not my girlfriend."

Mei Xue twitched her fox ears. Although, judging from her love life, Mei Xue is almost like Spider-Man now, strictly speaking, the little fox is still single.

"Oh, is that so? How about I be your girlfriend?"

"You think beautiful!"

Amaya, who had just logged on, overheard this and wanted nothing more than to kick Specter away. What a joke! Be Mei Xue's girlfriend? There were over three hundred people queuing up here who wouldn't even dare to dream of it.

"Sister Amaya!"

Upon seeing Amaya, Mei Xue's eyes lit up. She broke free from Ghost Shark's embrace and ran to Amaya. Looking at the group of eager Sirens behind her, she couldn't help but laugh.

Welcome back, everyone!

"As you commanded, none of the sirens who went to the deep sea were injured or killed, and we also made many discoveries."

The siren girls were overjoyed to see Mei Xue again, but they still maintained their politeness and did not rush up to hug and kiss her.

"It's good that everyone is safe and sound."

Seeing the relieved expression on Mei Xue's face, Amaya felt a warmth in her heart. This meant that the Sirens' position in Mei Xue's heart was definitely not that of a mere subordinate or servant.

"Yes, all of this is thanks to that black mushroom you gave me. That thing is incredibly powerful. But before that, let me tell you about the results of this project."

Amaya sat down with Mei Xue in her arms, glanced at Ghost Shark, and then told Mei Xue about their experiences.

From those strangely evolved sea creatures to the civilization buried in the deep sea, and then to Isamara's corpse and that enormous skeleton, Amaya paid special attention to Mei Xue's expression as she spoke, and found that the little fox did not seem to have any related associations.

"So, the skeleton you saw in the sea is mine, and it's... that big?"

Mei Xue tried to gesture with his hands, but he still couldn't imagine what he would look like if his ribs alone were a kilometer long.

"That's how we felt at the time. Oh, and we also brought this back with us."

Amaya took out the ten-sided die from her chest. Mei Xue's eyes were instantly drawn to it when she saw it. The little fox's lips moved slightly, and a mechanical female voice suddenly appeared in her mind.

Mei Xue froze in Amaya's arms. He felt something about to pop out of his head, like a bamboo shoot sprouting. A familiar phrase came out of his mouth.

"I am the master of my destiny."

[Password correct. Confirm administrator identity - Wheel of Fortune, Access Level 10]

A number appeared out of thin air on the dice in Amaya's hand: 10. The mental network vanished without a trace the next moment, as if the power had been cut off. By the time everyone reacted, they had already returned to the real world... except for Mei Xue.

Chapter 237 Su Xueer's Appearance

Where is this place?

It was pitch black all around. Mei Xue could see nothing but herself. There were no stars above her head, and the ground beneath her feet was not solid. It was as if the little fox was standing in mid-air.

In an instant, Mei Xue was pulled from the dream world of the mental network to this place. He couldn't help but feel a little scared. In this world without any cover, he lacked a sense of security. His tail involuntarily stretched out and fluffed up, wrapping him into a ball, only revealing a pair of bright blue eyes.

The little fox reached out and tried to take something out of his tail, something that would at least give him some sense of security, but he soon found that he couldn't take anything out.

"Waaah..."

Mei Xue panicked completely. He had nothing to offer, which meant he had no means to protect himself. The surrounding darkness suddenly seemed dangerous to him, and he felt as if there were hostile gazes coming from all around him.

Neither moving forward nor backward could change her current situation. In this boundless dark world, Mei Xue didn't even know which direction she was in.

The claustrophobic, lightless world brought fear. With nothing around to protect him, Mei Xue's already somewhat frightened consciousness drifted back to the small warehouse where his own blood had been scattered everywhere. His lips were dry as he called out, his voice almost trembling.

The little fox wanted to call out Talulah's name, but she wasn't there. Mei Xue even subconsciously stopped herself. What if her sister got into trouble because of this?

Why not make a wish? Anything can come true if you make a wish. You can do it now, you definitely can…

A seductive voice came from all around, scaring Mei Xue so much that he covered his head and squatted on the ground, using his tail to tightly wrap himself up as his only means of defense. Just as he had thought, that gaze was real; it was watching him from the shadows, and the greed in its eyes was exactly the same as that of those who wanted to devour him.

Indeed, all he had to do was make a wish, Mei Xue’s instincts told him. He could make any wish now, but he also remembered clearly that Kal’tsit and the others had said that he had lost his memory because of a wish, and Mei Xue didn’t want that to happen.

His memory is still short, and the things he recorded, though only a year or two in total, are invaluable, especially those related to the Reunion Movement.

"Sister, it's so dark here."

There was nothing there except his own voice. This place was like nothingness, and he was the only "existence". Mei Xue was a little scared, and she could feel his emotions. His tail, which was black at the tip, wrapped around his waist, and a faint blue light emerged from it.

As Mei Xue's sobs turned into weeping, a pale blue light formed butterflies, illuminating the small world around her. That radiance made the little fox's eyes light up again, and he felt as if he were being embraced.

The loneliness vanished with the appearance of light, and the tail that had been wrapped around Mei Xue's waist disappeared completely, replaced by a pair of hands. The familiar feeling of being held made Mei Xue subconsciously want to turn around.

Don't look at me.

Su Xue'er's words made Mei Xue subconsciously stop what she was doing. The little fox realized that he only had five tails left, and he opened his mouth but found that he didn't know what to say.

"elder sister……"

Without any need for doubt, the shared origin made Mei Xue certain of the other person's identity, but he didn't understand why Su Xue'er wouldn't let him turn around.

"Good girl, it's your older sister."

Holding Mei Xue tightly around the waist, Su Xue'er breathed a sigh of relief. She couldn't let Mei Xue see her like this. Her incomplete power made it impossible for her to disguise herself. Apart from her hands, she was a monster made of flesh and blood. Countless eyes opened and closed on her body, and sharp bones resembled claws and teeth. She was nothing like the image Mei Xue remembered. An ordinary person would go crazy after just one look.

If it were someone else, such close contact would even corrode their skin and flesh. Her blood was poison, her breath carried a plague that could wipe out life, and her voice could drive anyone mad.

"Meixue, sweetie, do you want to go back?"

"Hmm, sister, where is this place? Why can't I take anything out of my tail? Why am I..."

"Don't ask so many questions. Knowing those things now won't do you any good. Listen to your sister and follow her butterfly later."

Looking at her younger brother so close to her, Su Xue'er felt a surge of happiness and contentment that outweighed her instinctive urge to devour him. She wanted to kiss him, but she couldn't now.

"Hmm, we can get out by following them?"
