"Deaf Sheep? What a strange name. Are you sure you remember it correctly?"
Lin Tanying was stunned for a moment when she heard Xiao Zhengtai's answer. It was obvious that this was a name that she had not expected.
"Well, I must have remembered correctly...it's Longyang..."
"Well, if you insist, I will call you Deaf Sheep from now on, sister. However, it still feels a bit weird to call you Deaf Sheep. You called me mom at first. My surname is Lin. Why don't I just call you Lin Deaf Sheep?" !”
"You will be my biological brother from now on! You must listen to your sister! Only by working together can we survive in this world!"
"oh oh……"
The blue-haired young lady nodded in understanding. The trust from the bottom of his heart made him naturally believe in the ragged "sister" in front of him, and he would be loyal to her until death.
"Okay, this person lying on the ground is Soldier No. 1, my right-hand man. After you cure him, we can get to know each other!"
Pointing to the paralyzed car-level zombie on the ground, Lin Tanying introduced it.
"Private No. 1..."
Young Shota, who had a new name, murmured to himself, but this time he did not accept it quietly. Instead, after mumbling for a while, he raised his head and asked.
"Why doesn't he respond to me when I communicate with him... Maybe he doesn't like me..."
The tentacles were still entangled, and Shota's action of filtering toxins did not stop.
"GIB 1 doesn't have autonomous consciousness yet, so how can it possibly respond to you..."
Lin Tanying replied matter-of-factly.
Although Private One appears in her spiritual world as red dots of light with a hint of orange, she is still a long way from having autonomous consciousness.
Lin Tanying doesn't know exactly at which stage the change will occur, but he only knows roughly that it is still far away.
Before possessing autonomous consciousness, Soldier One could only act instinctively and could not think, let alone have wisdom.
But this doesn't matter, because usually car-level zombies only need to take on the task of protecting Lin Tanying's safety. Whether they have wisdom or not will not affect the execution of this task.
And at the critical moment, Lin Tanying was able to achieve his goals by directly controlling the body of the car-level zombies, just like he had caught the tentacles of the quick attack.
Therefore, Lin Tanying is not in a hurry to give Private Soldier One a sense of autonomy. What she wants to do now is to recruit more Private Soldier One under her command.
The more men she has, the better her safety will be guaranteed.
"Oh, it's a pity. Originally, your name should have been Private Soldier No. 2. It's a pity that you gave up such a good name. Lin Yiyang, it feels so strange..."
Lin Tanying seemed to have turned into the innocent girl she was before. She pressed her thin lips with her slender index finger and kept muttering in a low voice.
"Sister, after I cure Private Number 2, I want to go downstairs and take a look, is that okay..."
There is no comment on Lin Tanying’s poor naming skills. Xiao Zhengtai looked at the car-level zombies in front of him seriously and asked softly.
"Go downstairs? What are you going downstairs for?"
A trace of doubt appeared on the girl's face. Before what happened, she had not thought that the creature hatched from the giant egg had autonomous consciousness. According to her previous thoughts, the other party should be the same existence as Private Soldier One. At best, there might be a few dark blue tentacles growing on it.
So when Xiaozhengtai Deafyang made the request, she was also curious.
After all, when she was alive, Lin Tanying was just a student in school, and her social cognition or life experience was not as rich as that of an adult.
"Downstairs...well, I want to go to the twelfth floor, there seems to be something
Something, something very important to me, where did it fall..."
Xiao Zhengtai Deaf Yang replied, his watery eyes full of doubts.
"On the twelfth floor, could it be your memory from your lifetime... Well, after you cure Private No. 1, we will go down together to take a look."
She closed her eyes gently, and a moment later, a trace of doubt appeared on Lin Tanying's face.
"There is nothing, not even a white light spot..."
Looking at the bare-butt young lady in front of her who was concentrating on treatment, Lin Tanying shrugged her shoulders and waited patiently.
Fifteen minutes later.
Vehicle-level zombie soldier No. 1 climbed up from the ground tremblingly, his red eyes full of fear for the young shota.
After standing next to Lin Tanying, the car-level zombie roared a few times, like a wronged puppy looking for an explanation from its owner.
"Oh, that was before. Don't be so stingy. Let's get to know each other. This is Deafyang, Lin Deafyang, my brother. He will be your little master from now on. While you are protecting me, you must also take on the responsibility of protecting him. Responsibility."
"Roar……"
Vehicle-level zombie soldier No. 1 looked at Lin Tanying, then quickly glanced at Xiaozhengtai Deafyang, and let out a low roar from his throat, seeming to agree.
"Okay, now let's set off to the twelfth floor, Deaf Sheep, you can lead the way!"
Xiao Zhengtai nodded and walked into the dark corridor first.
In the dark environment, the eight tentacles entangled on the deaf sheep's body slightly emitted blue fluorescence, like eight miniature lights, illuminating the surrounding walls.
"These eight tentacles are quite useful..."
Lin Tanying, who was following behind, expressed his opinion. It was obvious that this general-level zombie was very satisfied with the performance of the deaf sheep.
"Um, are you saying these tentacles glow?"
The deaf sheep walking in front slowed down and also looked at the tentacles entwined on his body.
"It has neurotoxins that can paralyze opponents, it can also provide lighting in the dark, and it can also be used as temporary clothing to cover up shame at critical moments... It's really good to have three functions in one thing. Where do these tentacles grow from? I can’t see clearly from behind…”
He glanced back and forth at Little Shota's back. Although each of those tentacles was only as thick as an adult's wrist, they were so intertwined that it was still difficult to tell where the final source was.
Just like it is difficult for people to distinguish the origin of each root system from a pile of tangled tree roots.
"Well, I'm not sure. It should be from the back..."
It seems that the deaf sheep can only control these tentacles that they have from birth, but know no other information.
"Stretch out these tentacles, don't let them get tangled together, and let me see where they grow out."
Before Lin Tanying could finish speaking, Deafyang cooperated with the tentacles on his back to untie and straighten them as much as possible.
Like thick water plants floating in the ocean, these tentacles entangled in the little shot separated one after another and danced slowly in the air.
It was then that Lin Tanying was surprised to find that each of these seemingly short tentacles could reach an astonishing three meters in length when fully extended.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
And tentacles of this length can also ensure hanging in the air for a long time!
You must know that just by looking at the flexibility of these tentacles, you can tell that there are no bones in them, and they can remain stiff for a long time without support. This shows that the strength of the muscles in them should not be underestimated. Once the prey is attacked, it is very likely that it will It will be directly strangled to death by the huge force of the tentacles.
"It seems to be growing from your lower waist. Could it be that your waist has become..."
After squinting for a while, Lin Tanying muttered in a low voice.
"Kidney, what is kidney? By the way, sister, you haven't told me how long two hours is..."
Xiao Zhengtai's hearing seemed to be very good. Lin Tanying's words were very small, but the deaf sheep could still hear them clearly.
"Two hours, well, two hours is probably the time it takes for you to remove toxins from the bodies of eight people..."
"Oh, what's the kidney?"
"The kidney...hiss, the kidney is an organ in the human body..."
Lin Tanying frowned and tried his best to explain.
"Who is that person?"
"people……"
When asked this question, Lin Tanying was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a while.
After waiting for no reply, the deaf sheep walking in front turned his head and looked at Lin Tanying behind him in confusion.
"Humans are human beings."
After thinking for a long time, Lin Tanying opened her thin lips and said solemnly.
"Humans...are we humans?"
The bright blue light flickered on and off as regularly as breathing, reflecting the confusion in the eyes of the deaf sheep in Lin Tanying's sight.
Looking at Xiao Zhengtai's dark eyes, the girl saw a pair of faint purple pupils.
If she had to use the memory of her life to make an analogy, Lin Tanying felt that her eyes were a bit like those of a cat, like the eyes of a stray cat struggling to survive under the night.
"I have no idea……"
After silence, Lin Tanying opened his mouth to answer.
The two were silent for a long time, and the atmosphere was almost stagnant.
Childish laughter rang out, and a happy smile appeared on the face of the little shota deaf sheep.
"It turns out there is something you don't know about me, sister. I'm so awesome! I actually knocked my sister down!"
"Of course you are powerful. Soldier No. 1 and I were almost poisoned by your poison. Do you think you are not powerful..."
After dispelling the haze in her heart, Lin Tanying continued to walk forward. This time she directly surpassed Xiao Zhengtai and walked in front.
"By the way, does your toxin only exist in your tentacles, or does it exist throughout your body?"
"Well, that toxin that can paralyze nerves should only exist on my tentacles. As long as I think about it, the tentacles will secrete this toxin."
"That means that in normal times, as long as you don't have any thoughts of secreting toxins, your tentacles are non-toxic, right?"
"Yes, you can say that."
The deaf sheep nodded and answered seriously.
"It does have another function, it can be used as a temporary rope when climbing."
"What?"
A look of confusion appeared in Deafyang's eyes again, but this time Lin Tanying seemed to have no interest in answering the question and urged.
"Hurry up, after you finish taking the things on the twelfth floor, we have other things to do..."
Vehicle-level zombie soldier No. 1 also walked behind Deafyang at this time, and gently bumped the young shota in front with his body, signaling the other party to move forward faster.
"Is there anything else important? Can you tell me first..."
The tender voice of a child echoed in the corridor. Xiao Zhengtai took a few steps forward and caught up with Lin Tanying in front.
"Looking for clothes! Didn't you see that my clothes are all torn by you..."
