Chapter 1135 Good Dog

Xia Shou took a deep breath, delved into his thoughts, and adjusted his perspective on life.

Natsumori, Natsumori, you need to calm down.

The Yan Jie in the book is not the real Yan Jie. The real Yan Jie doesn't remember anything; she's your boss now.

Pooh!
Got it wrong.

It should be said that the minister in the book is not a real minister; the minister doesn't remember anything! Yes, that's the correct way to address him.

"Xia, what's wrong? Report back. You should remember what's in the book, right?" Shangguan Yan held up two fingers and waved them in front of Xia Shou's eyes.

"Um... my mind is a bit muddled, and I only remember things before I was eighteen, because the person I was summoned to was eighteen." Xia Shou looked away and gave a perfunctory reply.

Just then, a dog suddenly jumped out from Xia Shou's body!

It was a dog with a very fantastical appearance. It was clearly a hyena, but its physical appearance and age seemed to be constantly changing.

The moment the hyenas appeared, the expressions of the onlookers suddenly turned serious.

"Still haven't you been able to solve it?" Feng Ruohui said with a solemn expression.

At the same time, the seal used to lure Vero was also activated.

A semi-transparent Rubik's Cube appeared above everyone's heads, with numbers in units of "years" marked on it.

Jiang Wengao's eyes widened suddenly.

Is this Bai Ge's ability, "Fate Cube"?

Baihe surveyed the scene expressionlessly. If Vero made any move or attacked anyone, he would immediately activate the Fate Cube to transfer the image Vero generated to the future.

The Needle of Destiny is a mythical relic belonging to the seamstress. It can combine and transform the user's extraordinary power with the theme of life, giving birth to and evolving new extraordinary power.

The effect of the Destiny Cube is to divide the target's future life into fifty-four parts, which is the fifty-four faces of a 3x3 Rubik's Cube.

By rotating the Rubik's Cube, Baihe can transfer the real-world impacts on the person being dealt with from the present to the future, and he can also force the real-world impacts that are destined to happen in the future to be displayed in the present by rotating the Rubik's Cube.

Simply put, it means being able to transfer current injuries and extraordinary side effects to your future self, or to borrow benefits from the future to the present by postponing certain rituals.

When he faced the Rift King in the time loop, he used this ability to transfer the side effect of losing all fighting spirit to the future, creating the premise that he could fight.

This created an opportunity for many transmigrators to forcefully engage in battle with the Rift King, and they ultimately defeated the Rift King in his first historical counterattack.

Although everyone later learned that Spreadt's first counterattack was merely a feint, and that she had deliberately suppressed her strength.

Even so, it is enough to prove the power of the [Fate Cube] ability.

The most important reason why Shirakawa was assigned to the scene was to help others defend themselves against Vero's personal attacks.

If Vero attacks anyone and destroys their past life, Shirakawa will forcibly transfer the "destroyed" life to the past.

The disabilities, psychological trauma, and other profound impacts inflicted on the individuals by Vero will all occur in the future.

For example, if Shangguan Yan were attacked by Velo and became a cripple, then Baihe would arrange this period of his crippled life to occur during Shangguan Yan's old age.

Although this means that the last twenty-odd years of one's life will become wasted time, it's still better than becoming a useless person now. The moment Baihe unleashed his superpower, Shangguan Yan, who was at the center of the ceremony, flashed and used the astonishing Instant Step.

With lightning speed, she transformed into a blur past Qiao Xin, then lowered her body and hoisted Qiao Xin onto her shoulder.

Just as Shangguan Yan was about to move again to take Alice away, she keenly sensed that Vero had already run towards Alice.

"That's too late."

Through precise calculations, Shangguan Yan decisively abandoned the rescue opportunity and carried Qiao Xin directly away from the danger zone!
All eyes were on Willow, who was running toward Alice. Everyone held their breath and silently prayed that the vicious dog would be gentle with Alice.

When Vero ran to Alice's feet, he suddenly stopped and then—squatted down!

"Ok?"

"How is this going?

"That dog...didn't attack? Why?!"

Vero was squatting at Alice's feet, like an obedient pet dog, panting and wagging his tail, appearing exceptionally docile.

Immediately afterwards, Vero suddenly stood up, leaned forward, and made a gesture inviting Alice to play. The next second, he ran around Alice in circles, barking incessantly.

Vilo is a hyena, and its bark doesn't sound like a regular dog's "woof woof." Instead, it sounds like a kind of short, continuous, and somewhat mesmerizing laugh, which sounds particularly funny and comical.

Thus, the atmosphere of what was originally an extremely serious scene became subtle.

Everyone watched as Vero ran around Alice a few times, then lay down in front of her, rolled over to expose his belly, and wriggled like a nimble maggot, looking at Alice with a fawning and ingratiating gaze, constantly whimpering and moaning.

"What... what is this?" Su Weiyu gasped.

Xia Shou watched Vero fawn over Alice and breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems my guess was right. Vero is the pet of Solard, the First King of the Rift, and Alice is Solard's foster mother. To Vero, Alice is like family. How could he not be hostile towards Alice?

The reason he was attacked by Vero the first time he opened the door was probably because Vero couldn't see Alice in her spirit form.

Or perhaps, Vero felt that he had hurt Alice, causing her to become that pitiful soul.

"Lord Xia Shou, this..." Alice, with her eyes tightly closed, looked down at Vero rolling at her feet, seemingly at a loss.

Xia Shou slowly stepped back, while lowering his voice to remind Alice: "Alice... try touching it."

Alice cautiously reached out and approached Vero, and the instant Alice touched Vero, Vero, whose form had been indistinct, instantly became a definite entity.

It had become a very young, baby hyena, lying on its back on the ground, letting Alice scratch its belly.

It squinted its eyes, with an expression of great enjoyment.

Modis chuckled: "This dog has just attached itself to Alice, so its life is the same as Alice's life, and it has confirmed its presence in the present moment."

Feng Ruohui: "So it's safe now?"

“No, it could break free and possess someone else at any time, but it seems to really like Alice. I think we can try letting Alice command it to see how well it understands human instructions and how obedient it is,” Modis said.
