Super Beast Taming System, Help Me Become a Female Warrior
Chapter 272 Overdrawing Mental Strength
The signs on the wall and the photos of the characters all show that this building was once a hospital.
Even though this is a small city, it is normal to have a hospital.
But the rooms in the building were almost empty, with only some beds, tables, chairs and cabinets left behind.
Even Gu Xiaoyue and the others went all the way up to the fourth floor and checked every room, but found nothing.
“It’s very strange here, if it were a clinic, then there would be too many inpatient rooms.
But if it is a relatively regular hospital, there are too few departments that should be there.”
He Zhichen tapped the sign on the wall with his finger. This building looked weird no matter how you look at it.
"It's definitely not right. Just now when we were on the first floor, there was a sign that there was a basement level below ground. Let's go check it out."
When she first came in to the lobby on the first floor, Gu Xiaoyue realized that this was a hospital.
She subconsciously thought the underground floor was a parking lot or a morgue.
Now that there was still no gain from the first to fourth floors, she thought she could go to the underground floor to check.
When everyone expressed their agreement, Gu Xiaoyue's eyes suddenly widened, and then her eyes went black and she fell to the ground.
[Ding——The selected part of the ancient ruins has been accepted——]
In Gu Xiaoyue’s dark world, a mechanical sound of the system was heard.
So, am I dizzy now because of mental overdraft?
But why does it seem like I am still conscious, but shrouded in darkness? What is going on?
Gu Xiaoyue tried very hard to open her eyes, but she had only a faint consciousness and there was no part of her body that she could control.
Since I was still conscious, I should have been able to hear everyone's voices after I fainted, right?
not at all.
She seemed to have all her five senses blocked, floating in the darkness.
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Xiaoyue seemed to gradually be able to hear the noisy traffic and the voices of vendors shouting.
She slowly opened her eyes and saw a girl in red clothes with pigtails hawking her goods in front of her. Behind her was an old man with grey hair tidying up the stall.
The people here are all busy. There are also several "people" who retain the characteristics of ferocious beasts, and many pregnant women. Some of them are moving things, and some are doing business.
The whole market is full of prosperity and bustle.
Gu Xiaoyue wanted to go up and talk to them, but she found a humanoid beast that was moving things. It completely ignored her and even passed through her body.
So she was still in a dizzy state, and what she saw and heard now were the scenes that happened in the market several years ago?
And was everything she could see and feel due to the fact that she moved that part of the ruins into the Beast Taming Space?
The answer seems to be yes.
Gu Xiaoyue was no longer confused. She walked around the market twice, observing everyone's every move, and did not find anything suspicious.
She found a relatively quiet place, closed her eyes and tried to take a few deep breaths.
The surroundings gradually became quiet, and when Gu Xiaoyue opened her eyes again, the entire market was empty.
This is the tranquility of the night. A few lights and a half moon make the market even more quiet.
Occasionally there are a few animal calls, the sound is not loud, like the murmur of wild beasts in their sleep.
Gu Xiaoyue just stayed in the market, watching the sunrise and sunset, and watching all the people and ferocious beasts around her busying about.
And she herself was trapped here, forcing her to feel and even integrate into this market.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't wake up.
It was not until many days had passed since the market that Gu Xiaoyue realized that everything around her began to blur. All people and things gradually became transparent and turned into afterimages.
After a period of darkness, she finally woke up.
When she opened her eyes, Gu Xiaoyue saw Chu Lishui, Ling Yu, and Bai Meng standing by her bed.
Their eyes were all bloodshot, and they probably hadn't slept well for several days.
"How many days was I unconscious?"
She asked as soon as she opened her mouth, but her throat became dehydrated and she could only make a mosquito-like sound.
"Five days."
Chu Li picked up a glass of water, inserted a straw into it, and handed it to Gu Xiaoyue's lips.
She took two small sips.
For five days, I didn't drink a drop of water and even had to be careful when drinking water.
When the cool water slides down my throat, I feel an indescribable sense of comfort.
Gu Xiaoyue sighed deeply. Is it too forced?
"I'm sorry, I didn't know I would be dizzy for so long?"
She propped herself up and half sat up. "I must have caused you a lot of trouble these days. I'm awake now. You all should go and rest."
“Sister, we went to the ruins again these few days and took another look.
It’s so strange that nearly half of the buildings are missing!”
Bai Meng frowned slightly and reported the situation to her.
Chu Li and Shui Lingyu looked at each other, and the two of them supported Bai Meng and asked him to rest early.
Xiaoyue had just woken up when Bai Meng said that all these things made her worry so much that it would be best for him to leave.
After pushing Bai Meng out of the room, Chu Li and Shui Lingyu returned.
Chu Li was holding a bowl of porridge, and Shui Lingyu was holding some cut fruits.
"Thank you, I—"
Gu Xiaoyue looked at them with apology. Compared to these, she felt that she should eat the Huayu Fruit more.
She was trapped in the illusion of the ruins because she overdrew her mental power and was unable to get out. So what she should replenish most now should be her mental power!
Chu Li and Shui Lingyu both thought that Gu Xiaoyue had that expression because she had caused them trouble, so they became even more eager to feed her.
Unable to refuse such a kind invitation, Gu Xiaoyue had to eat a little bit, then she told them that they couldn't eat too much since they had just woken up, and asked them to stop working.
She took out two Huayu fruits from the Beast Taming Space and asked Chu Li to squeeze out the juice.
After Gu Xiaoyue drank it, her already dried up mental strength was replenished a little, and she breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Did you encounter any strange things during the few days I was dizzy?
Or am I not talking in my sleep or anything like that?"
"After you fainted, don't talk in your sleep, even your breathing and heartbeat were very weak.
We almost thought you suddenly——"
Chu Li choked up a little when she was speaking. Her condition really looked like she had died suddenly!
Even if he died, he would never watch Gu Xiaoyue lose her life in front of him again.
"Except for He Zhichen, we all heard singing coming from the ruins from time to time, especially Bai Meng, who said that the singing seemed to never stop.
She couldn’t hear it in the first two or three days after Aunt Zheng came back, but she could hear it again in the past two days, and she felt like it was the temple calling her back.
If Bai Meng hadn't stopped her, she might have gone back.
She said that staying there made her feel very comfortable, forgetting all her worries—"
Shui Lingyu continued Chu Li's words and recounted what he had encountered in the past few days.
Originally, they had retreated from the ruins because of Gu Xiaoyue's fainting, and had been staying in the mud house where Bai Meng and Zheng Jie lived.
In fact, there were other earthen houses around, but they all felt it was better to live together for easy care, so Chu Li contributed the Nether Tiger.
It's late now, Duan Yao, Qian Ce, Charlie, He Zhichen and the others are all resting in the Nether Tiger's hidden space.
During the day, they would take turns to look after Gu Xiaoyue.
I would occasionally go to the ruins, but I would never go near the temple.
"So He Zhichen is the only one who can't enter the ruins alone, and Bai Meng and Aunt Zheng have a stronger reaction to the ruins?"
Gu Xiaoyue asked the question in her mind and saw that Chu Li and Shui Lingyu were both nodding.
She seemed to be able to figure out why Bai Meng and Zheng Jie were stuck around the ruins in the beginning.
"If I want to go in alone now, I'm afraid I'll be sent back to the origin—"
Gu Xiaoyue lowered her eyes and murmured softly.
"This site has been restricted, not only will no ferocious beasts approach it—
And if your mental strength is not strong enough, you cannot enter the ruins!"
Before, all of them went in together, and He Zhichen sneaked in.
As for Zheng Jie and Bai Meng, they did not have enough mental strength before, so they could not enter.
But over time, as the pet's training was upgraded, Zheng Jie's own mental strength also increased.
Even though the improvement in mental strength is not as obvious as the improvement in the Beast Tamer level, it is still enough to enter the ruins.
