How to deal with an angry mother?
Li Ang couldn't find the answer for the time being, so he had to go to the third layer of the bacterial net with an uneasy heart.
The scene in front of me changed to the cave where the laboratory was located, except that there was no giant baby meat ball. The sides of the cliff were covered with white translucent crystal clusters.
No other memory can be seen here, its only function is to imprison Miranda.
Li Ang continued to go deeper, while Eva sat on his head and happily played with his hair, as if it was so much fun.
The original steps leading to the laboratory are still there, but the laboratory has disappeared.
In its place is a circular stone altar.
"Miranda? The great mother goddess?" Li Ang stood at the altar and shouted loudly.
The next second, a pile of black liquid emerged from the center of the altar, like muddy mud in a swamp, and a body wrapped in black feathers slowly floated up from it.
"You actually have the courage to come to see me, Li Ang."
Miranda was still dressed as the majestic mother goddess, with sacrificial robe, ribbon, and black wings, but this time she did not wear the golden beak mask.
"I told you we're not done yet, prepare to die"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly saw the little girl riding on Li Ang's head. Her expression instantly froze, and then immediately turned into ecstasy.
"Eva. My daughter?"
She seemed to not believe her eyes, and her voice was trembling when she spoke.
Eva raised her head belatedly and shouted in surprise: "Mom!"
She jumped off Li Ang and threw herself into her mother's arms: "Mom, I miss you so much."
Miranda carefully stroked her daughter's cheek, tears falling uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes.
"My daughter, my dearest and most beloved Eva, mom misses you too. You will never know how long mom has been waiting for this moment."
The memories of her daughter that she found in the bacterial net were all scattered and fragmented, and she could not even communicate with her in a simple way. Unlike now, she could call her mother and hug her, almost indistinguishable from a living person.
"Eva, tell mom, how did you become like this?"
Miranda was so excited when she saw her daughter that she had already forgotten about Leon not far away.
Eva still remembers that she turned around and pointed: "Dad found me."
"Dad?" Miranda's face was full of doubts, her eyes looked around, and finally focused on the third person besides their mother and daughter.
Li Ang smiled and said: "I wanted her to call me uncle, but she didn't agree."
"What did you do to my daughter!" Miranda pulled Eva behind her and spread her black wings angrily, like a female animal protecting her calf.
Li Ang didn't answer and silently took a big step back.
Eva behind Miranda was immediately pulled forward by an invisible force.
"Dad?" The little girl knew that she couldn't leave her father too far, but she just wondered why his father would do this.
What responded to her was Li Ang's emotionless voice: "Eva, come to me."
The command was successful, and Eva walked up to him obediently.
Miranda was shocked by this scene: "How could she become like this? What on earth did you do to her?"
Li Ang touched the little girl's head and said, "I helped you find all of your daughter's memories. Don't you want to say thank you?"
After hearing this, Miranda became furious and instantly transformed into the form of a fungus beast, rushing towards him fiercely.
"You despicable, shameless villain! Give me your daughter back!"
Li Ang picked up Eva and easily dodged her attack: "I can kill you once, and I can kill you a second time, but it seems that I don't need to do it today."
"Eva, what should you do if your mother is angry?"
Hearing this, the little girl stood directly between Li Ang and Miranda, pursed her lips and began to cry loudly.
Miranda was immediately confused and hurriedly changed back to her human form, hugged her daughter and comforted her: "Don't cry, don't cry, mom is here."
Li Ang remained silent until the mother and daughter calmed down before saying, "You are a smart man and you should understand the current situation very well."
Miranda's face was ashen, but she had to lower her head and asked through gritted teeth: "Tell me, what exactly can I do so that you can give me your daughter back?"
Li Ang then informed her of the idea of upgrading the mold and described the characteristics of the black light virus in detail.
Even without physical comparison, just by describing it in words, Miranda could already sense how dangerous the black light was, and couldn't help but sarcastically said: "You greedy man, you will die in this sooner or later!"
"At least I'm still alive now." Li Ang looked indifferent.
Miranda thought for a moment: "I will help you upgrade the mold, but it will take time. During this period, Eva has to stay with me."
Li Ang flatly refused: "Impossible! When you produce the results, I will bring Eva to see you. Don't try to play tricks, Mother Goddess."
"You have been waiting for her for a hundred years, I hope you don't mind waiting for another hundred years."
"I just don't know if our poor little Eva can last that long."
When Miranda thought that her daughter's memory would disappear over time, she felt like her heart was twisting in a knife, and she immediately changed her words: "I promise! I promise whatever you say!"
"But I do need time. Give me a week and I will give you a satisfactory answer."
"In addition, I also need your blood and some body tissues."
The Fungus Net is a magical place. It is very idealistic. As long as the authority is high enough and you have full faith, you can manifest anything, including things that do not exist in this world.
Li Ang used administrator rights to rebuild a biological laboratory according to Miranda's requirements. The various research equipment were more comprehensive than before, and he also simulated the general shape of the black light virus.
Although it is superficial, it is enough for testing.
After doing all this, in order to let Miranda serve him better, Li Ang deliberately asked Eva to stay for a while, and finally left the third layer of the bacterial net with Miranda's reluctant eyes.
Ordering Eva to turn back into a mushroom, Li Ang went to the second floor to pick up the puppet master Donna.
Donna got along very happily with her parents, and listened to them talk a lot about her childhood. Her father also personally taught her the skills of making dolls, and the family of three enjoyed themselves happily.
Seeing Li Ang come in, although she was reluctant in her heart, she still bid farewell to her parents sensibly.
"Goodbye, Mom and Dad, I'll see you next time."
"let's go."
The two of them left the old house, and Donna suddenly asked curiously: "I noticed just now, how long have we been separated? It's been so long that mushrooms have grown on your body."
As he said that, he reached out to help him pick off the mushrooms on his shoulders.
Li Ang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He stopped the puppet master's little hand that was about to move and explained the reason.
"Miranda also suffered today, she deserves it!" Apparently Donna was still brooding about what happened before.
After waking up from reality, the fungus owner's roots and vines have disappeared, indicating that the initial transformation of the fungus has been completed.
Now we just have to wait for Miranda.
After a moment of tenderness with Donna, Li Ang returned to the castle carrying the raven's cage.
On the way, he was still thinking that by helping two tragic families reunite in one day, his merits would be immeasurable and he would be worthy of the Ancestral Temple!
