Even losing his life at any moment is a possibility, after all, the Demon King is bloodthirsty and doesn't care about the lives of his subordinates. "Father, will your operation succeed this time? Liu Ziming is a cunning fellow; he's watching your every move."
Having lived with Liu Ziming and his group for some time, Yuebai knew Liu Ziming somewhat, so she spoke with some concern.
Because he didn't want his father to fail time and time again.
Chapter 462 Some Strange Movements
In fact, if Liu Ziming's strength hadn't declined, he might have sensed that the space they lived in had undergone subtle changes, but he just hadn't noticed them yet.
The reason the Demon King accelerated his pace and plans was because he had sensed all of this in advance, which is why he was in such a hurry.
"Don't worry, I have to speed up my pace, because some subtle changes have occurred in the area we live in. Something big must be about to happen." Although the Demon King is a terrifying force, he cannot sense things that haven't happened yet, which is a huge problem for him.
But Liu Ziming is different. He can foresee things that haven't happened yet, after all, he has powerful sensory abilities, but not now. "Boss, are you feeling better now? If you're not feeling well, feel free to ask for anything, I'll do whatever you need."
You know what, when Slime Clean took care of Liu Ziming, he was really attentive and didn't want to leave his side for a moment. He took very good care of him.
But Liu Ziming dared not accept what he said. He could accept anything, but he had no such thoughts.
So Liu Ziming mistakenly thought that Shi 250 Lime Mirror was actually confessing his feelings to him indirectly, and he dared not accept it.
"Hehe, you know what, I've recovered really well. I feel like my physical strength has recovered a lot recently, and I believe it won't be long before I'm back to my original state?" Actually, the reason Liu Ziming said this was just to comfort Slime Mirror. His body hadn't changed at all, which he also found strange.
Because he possessed terrifying strength and an abnormal regenerative ability, everything that was happening now left Liu Ziming utterly bewildered. What on earth had happened? Why was his recovery speed so slow? "Heh, as long as you can recover, I'm willing to pay any price. It's what I should do."
Since taking care of Liu Ziming himself, Slime Jing's mood has calmed down considerably, and he's not as irritable as before. He himself doesn't know why he's become like this. "Thank you for your hard work these past two days. I can take care of myself. If it's not necessary, I'd like to be alone for a while."
(cibj) Liu Ziming's meaning couldn't be clearer: he wanted Slime Jing to leave for a while so he could think about why he was experiencing these symptoms.
However, the Slime Mirror misunderstood him, thinking that he disliked it. Its expression immediately turned unhappy.
"I really didn't expect you to be like this. This makes me feel like you've used me and then discarded me. I don't want to take care of you at all!" Hearing the slime say this, Liu Ziming's expression immediately became extremely awkward. Had he expressed himself incorrectly?
However, the slime didn't give him any chance to argue or defend himself, turning around and running out of his room, looking very unhappy. "Let's not worry about that for now. The most important thing is to recover."
Using his remaining strength and energy, Liu Ziming carefully sensed the surroundings and actually detected something different; the space itself had undergone subtle changes.
Although it wasn't very obvious, he still had a faint feeling, not a strong one, but he still sensed it. "How could this be? Could my current symptoms be related to the changes in the space?"
Liu Ziming unconsciously connected everything in front of him, and his expression looked particularly puzzled.
But he quickly realized why his recovery was so slow: this time he had consumed the energy of the Evil God Emperor, and it was one of the three divine runes he had conjured. "It seems I was too hasty last time. I had every opportunity and ability to deal with that guy Yue Bai. It's such a pity that I wasted one of the Evil God Emperor's divine runes."
Only Liu Ziming himself knew how important it was that the Evil God Emperor had used his lingering remnant to draw the three divine talismans. Those were the very talismans that he used to save his own life. How could he not feel heartbroken that he had wasted them?
But the waste is already done, and there's no chance to regret it; there's no place in the world that sells a medicine for regret.
"It seems I need to do some research on how to fully restore my physical strength and energy, and do it even faster?" Fortunately, Liu Ziming has this awesome system, otherwise he would definitely be in a terrible situation.
He searched carefully within his own system for a while, and thankfully he found a quick way to restore it.
"Holy crap, no way, my recovery is so slow, is it really related to the strange space? This is all too weird!"
It was only through the system's search that Liu Ziming learned that his slow recovery this time was indeed related to the abnormal space, and not so much to the divine talismans consumed by the Evil God Emperor.
But this method of restoring stamina and energy was too bizarre; Liu Ziming really couldn't accept it. "If I really devour the crystal box in the slime's hand, will it kill me?"
Because this method of restoring physical strength and energy is really strange, it requires consuming the crystal box in the slime mirror's hand, but the slime mirror treasures that crystal box like a precious gem.
Besides, he had just angered Slime Shizuka and driven him away. How could he possibly ask him for the crystal box back? Liu Ziming was caught in a dilemma. "Hehe, you're overthinking it. Little guy, if you don't quickly recover your strength and energy, I'm afraid you don't have much time left?" The three divine runes drawn by the Evil God Emperor, now reduced to only two, were weakly and constantly reminding Liu Ziming.
"Senior, is there no better way than this? That's what my system says. Do you have a better method?"
In the past, the Evil God Emperor might have had a better way, but now he has transformed into three divine talismans, losing his original power, making everything impossible.
Chapter 463 Alien Creatures in the Safe Zone
"It seems the only option is to devour the crystal box in that Slime Mirror guy's hands. What should we do?"
Liu Ziming is in a dilemma. He just drove away that Slime Mirror guy, and now he wants to devour the crystal box in his hand? Isn't that a joke? Will that Slime Mirror guy agree?
But apart from that, Liu Ziming couldn't think of any good solutions and fell into deep thought.
"Hey, what are you doing? Why are you like this? Are you having some kind of trouble? If so, you can tell me!"
However, Liu Ziming never expected that, given the lively nature of the Slime Mirror, it would never return so easily, but it did.
Moreover, his facial expression was like the spring sunshine, showing exceptional happiness without any warning.
"Holy crap, could it be that this guy found out and is coming back to punish me? What am I going to do?" Liu Ziming's expression changed rapidly, and the turmoil in his heart was indescribable.
Because he really didn't know how to deal with the Slime Mirror, since he had done something somewhat inappropriate before.
"Hehe, it's nothing. It's just that my recovery this time has been too slow. If I don't recover quickly, I'm afraid other dangerous things might happen?"
Hearing Liu Ziming say that, Slime Mirror didn't have too many doubts. After all, whether Liu Ziming recovered quickly or slowly had little to do with him. He couldn't understand why this guy said that.
However, he was surprised to find that Liu Ziming seemed like a completely different person, his eyes fixed on his body, making him feel uneasy. "What are you doing? Why are you staring at me like that? It's making me feel uncomfortable."
With a shy expression on his face, Slime Mirror thought that Liu Ziming had other ideas about him, and felt both embarrassed and ashamed.
But he never dreamed that Liu Ziming was actually eyeing the crystal box in her pocket. As for any other thoughts, well, those were simply impossible. "Ah, what did you say? I wasn't staring at you. I was just thinking about how I could increase my recovery speed?"
Seeing the strange expression on Liu Ziming's face, the Slime Mirror really couldn't understand why this guy had become like this.
But he seemed to realize something quickly, and clutched his pockets tightly with both hands, realizing that his precious treasure had been snatched away by Liu Ziming.
"What are you doing? Don't you dare try to take my treasure! I got this myself from the Monster Forest, and you agreed to it. Whoever gets it owns it!" Seeing the slime mirror tightly protecting its pocket, Liu Ziming realized that he had almost no chance of devouring the crystal box.
He felt an overwhelming sense of despair, but there was nothing he could do; he was too embarrassed to forcibly take it from him.
"Hehe, what are you thinking? Even if my recovery is slow, I won't steal your treasure, even though it has the ability to increase my recovery speed?" Hearing Liu Ziming say this, Slime Jing's expression became incredibly interesting, her eyes widening.
He never dreamed that the crystal box he acquired, which looked merely pretty and wasn't particularly useful to him, would have such a miraculous effect on Liu Ziming's recovery. "My God, are you serious? You're not lying to me, are you?"
The Slime Mirror couldn't believe that its crystal box had such magical effects, and how come it had never discovered them before?
Because this crystal box had absolutely no connection with him; the treasures in the Monster Forest were all a matter of fate.
"Actually, I didn't want to tell you this, but now that you know, if possible, you should give me the crystal box, okay?"
Upon hearing Liu Ziming say that, the slime's expression changed rapidly; he was genuinely reluctant to part with it.
However, he was also very worried about Liu Ziming. If this guy couldn't recover his energy and stamina, it would be an immeasurable loss for them. (Requesting flowers.)
Moreover, he deeply loved Liu Ziming, and he truly didn't want him to suffer even the slightest harm, not even the smallest bit. "Here! This is my crystal box. As long as it can restore your strength and energy, I'm willing to give up anything, even my own life?" Hearing the slime say this, Liu Ziming's heart was filled with turbulent emotions.
Because he never imagined that Slime Shizuka's fiery personality would lead her to disagree, but Slime Mirror's actions did indeed exceed Liu Ziming's expectations. "Boss, something bad has happened! Some unidentified creatures have appeared in our safe zone, and they look really scary. You need to find out what's going on right away!"
...Just then, the seven-colored deer rushed in, its expression strange and filled with panic.
Upon hearing what the Seven-Colored Deer had said, Liu Ziming didn't hesitate at all. He immediately picked up the crystal box from the Slime Mirror and began to devour it frantically.
"Holy crap, what is the boss doing? Didn't I tell him that an unidentified creature was found in the safe zone? Why is he picking up that slime mirror guy's box and starting to devour it like crazy?" Seven-Colored Deer stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that he was seeing what he was witnessing.
But the facts were right in front of him: after Liu Ziming devoured the slime guy's crystal box, his body's energy and stamina were quickly restored.
Moreover, the speed at which his physical strength and energy recovered was beyond his imagination, completely exceeding everyone's expectations.
"My goodness! After the boss devoured that guy's crystal box from the Slime Mirror, his spirit seems even more unrestrained than before. His terrifying strength is self-evident!" But Liu Ziming didn't have much time to react. After all, the appearance of an unknown creature in the safe zone was a deadly threat to them.
So when he felt his strength and energy had recovered to a certain level, he dashed out frantically.
Chapter 464 Mutant Alien Creatures
"Boss, why are you moving so fast? Wait for us, wait for us!"
The Seven-Colored Deer was shouting frantically behind them, but Liu Ziming seemed not to hear, his speed turning into a blur, leaving them no trace. "My goodness, so my crystal box actually has such miraculous healing effects! If I had known this beforehand, would I have left it for so long?" The Slime Mirror was completely dumbfounded; he never expected that Liu Ziming would recover so quickly after absorbing his crystal.
Seeing Liu Ziming rush over frantically, he didn't react at all, as if he was still immersed in surprise.
"Slime Mirror, hurry up! Unidentified creatures have appeared in our safe zone. Although there are only a few, it won't be long before '250' sees many more of them!" Seven-Colored Deer was genuinely confused as to why Slime Mirror was so surprised and why Boss Liu Ziming was in such a panic. He had no idea what had happened.
So he had no choice but to run back, grab the terrified slime, and frantically chase after their leader, Liu Ziming. "How could an unknown alien creature appear in a safe zone? This is strange."
Liu Ziming ran extremely fast, but he forgot a crucial question: the Seven-Colored Deer hadn't told him where the unknown alien creature had appeared.
Liu Ziming had no choice but to keep running frantically, sensing everything around him as he ran. Fortunately, this guy had a powerful sense of perception, and surprisingly, he actually sensed it. "Holy crap, is this really a one-star mutant creature? Its reproduction rate is so fast, how come I've never noticed it before?" Liu Ziming's running speed came to an abrupt halt. He stopped next to a tree of medium size, his eyes looking rather strange.
Because this sapling is a mutated creature, and what shape the mutated creature will take depends on their mood.
"What exactly are you? Why are you in our safe zone? If you don't tell the truth, I'll cripple you right now!"
Liu Ziming didn't want to waste his time. He felt there was no need to be soft-hearted towards the mutant alien creature that suddenly appeared in his safe zone.
However, the morphing creature seemed completely oblivious to what Liu Ziming was saying. The tree branches swayed wildly, displaying an unrestrained frenzy. "Damn it! You clearly understood what I was saying, yet you dare to oppose me? Looks like you're really tired of living?"
Liu Ziming was even more eccentric. After saying those words, he didn't hesitate at all and kicked the small tree hard.
He had hoped that with the force of his kick, which weighed tens of thousands of pounds, even a boulder would be shattered to pieces.
But then a strange thing happened: the eldest brother, Liu Ziming, missed his kick completely, and without any support, his body lurched forward uncontrollably. "Boss, what's wrong with you?"
The two guys, Seven-Colored Deer and Slime Jing, who rushed over in a hurry, saw the strange phenomenon that appeared in their leader Liu Ziming and couldn't help but shout out.
However, their shouts were completely unrestrained, and the leader, Liu Ziming, continued to charge forward, threatening to fall at any moment.
"Hehe, why are you in such a hurry? Young man, I'm not interested in your safe zone, and I pose no threat to you. Can't we just get along peacefully?" Liu Ziming never expected that his uncontrollable body would be magically held back by that small tree, and in a particularly eerie way by its branches.
Even Liu Ziming was completely surprised that this morphing creature could actually speak, and its sensory abilities exceeded his reaction speed.
"Who do you think you are? Don't try to play tricks in our safe zone. If you dare to threaten my companions in any way, rest assured, I will definitely not let you get away with it!"
Although the sapling used its branches to support itself and prevent itself from falling, Liu Ziming completely failed to appreciate his kindness.
He felt that this safe zone was something he had painstakingly built, and if the safe zone itself was no longer safe, then for him, it would lose its original protective function...
"Heh, we're just some creatures that have lived for a long time. We pose no threat to you. Why are you being so aggressive?"
The sapling kept swaying its branches, looking very dissatisfied, as if it might launch a sudden attack on Liu Ziming at any moment.
Just then, everyone rushed over, their faces filled with utter terror. They had never seen a tree that could talk, especially such a small one. "Boss, is this the mutated alien creature that appeared in our safe zone? This is too bizarre!"
The giant ape pointed at the tiny tree in front of him, his expression quite strange. The forest was very familiar to him, but he had never seen such a unique tree before.
It wasn't just the giant ape elder who had this feeling; even the Flame Dragon elder, despite having awakened the bloodline of the ancient ancestral dragon, had never seen such a strange mutated creature.
"I already said, I'm not a mutated creature. I'm just a species that has lived for a long time. I have no impact on you and won't affect your lives. Why are you acting like this?" The mutated creature actually spoke again, and its tone was pleading, as if it really liked this safe area.
Everyone was puzzled. How did this guy get in? Wasn't this safe zone protected by the boss's formation and a wall woven from thousand-year-old ghost vines?
"If that's really the case, that would be best. I don't want to cause too much trouble. After all, our current safe zone also needs some protective barriers. If you can do that, then you can stay?" Everyone was stunned when they heard their leader Liu Ziming's bizarre idea. They never expected that their leader Liu Ziming would actually believe the nonsense of this mutated creature. Was he stupid?
"Hehe, sure, I have that ability!"
Chapter 465 A Variant of Spatial Anomalies
No one expected that this mutated creature would actually agree to the demands of its leader, Liu Ziming.
