บท 6: 6 monsters?
บรรณาธิการ: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The class slowly passed in a blur for Zhou Bai. When Dr. Zhuang was about to leave after class, Elsa raised her hand and shouted, "Teacher, Zhou Bai had a nightmare yesterday! Please help him!"
Hearing Elsa's words, everyone turned their heads to look at Zhou Bai.
Alice asked with concern, "Zhou Bai, are you okay?"
"Are you still scared? Do you want me to sleep with you tonight?"
"Haha, Zhou Bai, you're such a big person and still have nightmares!"
Listening to the concerns around him, Zhou Bai's face showed a trace of helplessness. The strange atmosphere of the base made him unsure if he should tell Dr. Zhuang about what happened yesterday, but he didn't expect Elsa to speak up.
Zhou Bai could only smile awkwardly. Seeing Dr. Zhuang's cold gaze, his heart tightened slightly. Before he could say anything, Dr. Zhuang said directly, "You had a nightmare?"
Dr. Zhuang's serious look surprised Zhou Bai. Before he could answer, Dr. Zhuang continued, "Remember, do not open the door at night, do not leave your room. Later, follow me to the storeroom to get some incense. Light it before you sleep tonight. If you have another nightmare, tell me tomorrow."
Zhou Bai's heart skipped a beat, feeling like Dr. Zhuang knew something.
That night, as he lay in bed again, Zhou Bai looked at Elsa on the bed beside him, but he couldn't sleep.
He kept recalling the white-haired monster face he saw last night.
"Was it really a dream? If not, could it be Elsa turning into it?"
Lying in bed, Zhou Bai kept staring at Elsa, unable to calm his mind.
Meanwhile, Elsa across from him had already fallen asleep, her mouth open, biting her blanket. It seemed she was dreaming of food, as drool kept flowing out, wetting the sheets.
Zhou Bai thought to himself, "This guy... couldn't possibly be that kind of monster, right?"
Zhou Bai kept staring at Elsa as the scent of the incense filled his nostrils.
As time passed, nothing unexpected happened tonight. Zhou Bai only felt his eyelids grow heavier and his brain becoming more fatigued until he fell asleep in a daze.
In a half-dreaming state, Zhou Bai felt something furry rubbing against his cheek.
He frowned, slowly opened his eyes, and saw a white-haired monster face staring at him.
Zhou Bai was startled and quickly retreated, but as he saw the monster's entire body, his surprise turned to curiosity, and the fear slowly dissipated.
In front of him appeared a long-haired white cat, its eyes reflecting a red light, staring at Zhou Bai.
"Could it be that the cat I saw yesterday was also this one?" Zhou Bai thought to himself, "Because it was face to face with me, I couldn't see its full appearance, so I mistook it for a monster?"
Zhou Bai glanced at the door and Elsa's direction and found the door was still closed, and Elsa was also asleep.
The man and the cat stared at each other. Although the cat looked cute, which slightly relieved Zhou Bai's fear, the thought of such a white cat mysteriously entering their locked room in this underground base filled Zhou Bai's heart with caution. But due to the cat's identity, he didn't know how to communicate.
Zhou Bai focused his mind, and an invisible primordial spirit force from his brain guarded against the strange cat.
At that moment, the long-haired white cat blinked, and suddenly a female voice appeared in Zhou Bai's mind.
"Are you Zhou Bai?"
Zhou Bai was startled and looked around before glaring at the cat, asking, "Are you... talking to me?"
The cat showed a disdainful expression, its blood-red glowing eyes slightly narrowed, "Spiritual energy is blocked, the path is not clear, you are extremely ordinary, why are you the destined one? Did you get in through the back door?"
Zhou Bai asked, "Who are you? What do you mean? Wait... are you that female voice?" He realized it seemed to be the same female voice he heard when he got the assistant system.
The cat's eyes still had a look of confusion and hesitation. After giving Zhou Bai a deep look, it said, "Yes, I was the one contacting you before."
Zhou Bai suddenly became excited, "What is going on here? Where is this place? How do I get back? Why am I getting younger? Why can't I use laziness energy?"
Hearing a series of questions, the white cat frowned, "We won't discuss these now, you must first find a way to locate me and rescue me."
"Rescue you?" Zhou Bai asked, "What do you mean?"
"What you see now is just a wisp of my primordial spirit giving you a dream," the white cat said, "If you want to activate your system... and understand everything... you must find my true body... it's in this underground... base..."
As she said the last part, the white cat's voice gradually became intermittent, and eventually, her body disappeared into the air.
Zhou Bai frowned, then suddenly opened his eyes, sat up from the bed, looked at the empty space in front of him, and slowly lay back down, closing his eyes in thought.
The next morning was physics and chemistry class, and in the afternoon was still demon class.
In this demon class, Dr. Zhuang pointed to a twisted, grotesque humanoid statue and said, "This is the Hundred-Armed Demon Child. It bears countless arms and heads. Each arm has the power to shake mountains and seas, and as long as any head remains, it won't die. Furthermore, it wields various weapons..."
Zhou Bai looked at the menacing children's heads on the statue, baring their teeth as if staring at him.
But today's Hundred-Armed Demon Child and yesterday's Three-eyed Demon Wolf General made him feel a strange familiarity.
Zhou Bai thought, "It somewhat resembles the god Erlang and Nezha. Is it a recreation based on Chinese mythology?" He turned to look at other twisted and deformed forms and thought, "Others also look a bit like gods of strength, fire, and water... just too ugly."
After class, Zhou Bai found Dr. Zhuang and asked about the talking cat.
"Talking cat?" Dr. Zhuang frowned slightly, "Indeed, such things exist. They are demons. Why are you suddenly asking about this?"
Zhou Bai had long prepared his story and replied, "I saw a talking cat in the outside world. What exactly are demons?"
"A demon is just a demon," Dr. Zhuang said sternly, "They all want to eat humans and are born enemies of humanity. If you encounter one, be very cautious. Soon, I will start introducing demons in demon class, and you will understand then."
"Could they find the base?"
Dr. Zhuang glanced at Zhou Bai in confusion. Zhou Bai quickly said, "I'm worried about demons finding the base. What if they come here?"
Dr. Zhuang replied calmly, "Then we will all die, and human history will truly end."
