Space Survival: My Teammates Are All Top-Tier
Chapter 16: Little Devil, Blood is King
All eyes turned to Wang Xiaoxiao.
Lin Qingxue was taken aback at first, then scoffed, "Her? What could a three or four-year-old child know? Jiang Shi, are you sure?"
Dai Xinhui looked Wang Xiaoxiao up and down, her tone gentle: "Xiaoxiao, is what Jiang Shi said true?"
Bai Yubing remained silent, instead giving Wang Xiaoxiao an encouraging look.
Because she believed Jiang Shi's words that Wang Xiaoxiao's talent was outrageous, and she had even experienced it herself.
The others, Liu Siqin, Shen Xi, Zhang Ruoyu, and Guo Wanyu, didn't speak, but their eyes towards Wang Xiaoxiao were filled with doubt.
Can a child really solve a psychological attack that even adults find intractable?
Guo Wanxing, however, kept her head slightly lowered, her gaze fixed on her clasped hands, her ears still flushed.
As one of the parties involved, she knew better than anyone else and had no doubts.
At this moment, everyone's attention was focused.
But Wang Xiaoxiao gave Jiang Shi a sweet smile and asked with feigned confusion, "Big brother, which things aren't important?"
This question, coupled with her smile and eyes, sent chills down Jiang Shi's spine.
The momentum from before vanished instantly. She was stunned. Was this little one deliberately playing hard to get, or did she genuinely not know...?
To avoid arousing suspicion, Jiang Shi forced a smile: "Didn't you say you'd capture that mischievous monster and show everyone?"
Seeing Jiang Shi's earnest hints, Wang Xiaoxiao's smile deepened, and she obediently nodded, "Okay!"
Then, she calmed herself down, closed her eyes, and focused her mind on communicating with the fantasy world space that her talent had created.
At this moment, in that sunny, brightly colored forest clearing.
Big Bear stood with his hands on his hips, looking at the dimly lit creature on the ground that he and Little Bear had played with.
Xiong Er squatted down beside it and poked it with a tree branch. The creature trembled slightly with the poking and made a faint "bluish" sound.
Just then, both bears simultaneously sensed the transmission of Wang Xiaoxin's thoughts.
"Bear Two, stop poking him," said Bear One.
"I haven't had enough fun yet..."
Xiong Er was a little reluctant.
Big Bear smacked his lips, raised his paw, and flung it at the dying creature on the ground.
"Get out of here!"
The strange creature disappeared through the spatial ripples.
Inside the council chamber.
Everyone only saw Wang Xiaoxiao close her eyes and concentrate for a few seconds, and then a ripple of light appeared in the air in front of her.
At the center of the halo, an object was ejected, fell onto the table, and bounced twice.
Everyone looked on.
The object was about the size of two adult men's fists, and it was a translucent pink color, looking like jelly.
It has characteristics of both jellyfish and octopus.
The main body is a rounded, jellyfish-like umbrella-shaped body, with a dozen or so translucent pink tentacles hanging from the edge of the umbrella.
The ends are pinkish-white light spots and blue spots with a golden star-like appearance.
It has no eyes; instead, there is a constantly rotating pink spot of light in the center of the canopy.
Overall, it looks very cute, like a transparent jelly with a magical touch.
The group looked at it, and they couldn't believe that it was the culprit.
Wang Xiaoxiao's face paled slightly as she pointed at the dimly lit, jelly-like creature on the table: "That's it, that's the big bad guy, who... he...
"Ahem!"
Jiang Shi appeared normal on the surface, but his heart was in his throat again. He coughed lightly twice, "Little darling, don't say anything, please don't mention Sister Guo..."
Listening to Jiang Shi's inner thoughts, Wang Xiaoxiao chuckled and blinked: "...And it almost made my big brother so obsessed that he wanted to run into space without even wearing a spacesuit!"
Phew...that was close, I almost got attacked with words and letters.
Jiang Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they didn't talk about him and Guo Wanxing, he was fine with whatever they said.
Just then, Zhang Ruoyu's expression changed slightly, and she blurted out a question of concern for Jiang Shi: "Xiaoxiao! Is Jiang Shi injured?"
His gaze was fixed on Jiang Shi, his concern undisguised.
Wang Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, then shook her head: "No, big brother is fine."
She felt a little strange. This Sister Zhang used to treat Jiang Shi like that, so why is she suddenly so concerned about him?
Unfortunately, her mind-reading ability is limited; she can only hear the thoughts of people with a favorability rating of 90 or higher who are bound to her.
Currently, it only works on Jiang Shi, Bai Yubing, and Guo Wanxing, so we don't know what they're thinking.
Jiang Shi was bewildered again, having been puzzled twice by Zhang Ruoyu's unusual behavior, and he kept wondering:
Wait, what exactly is Zhang Ruoyu putting on this show? Concerned about me? Even if she wanted to ask, shouldn't she just ask me directly?
Just as everyone's attention was diverted by Zhang Ruoyu's unusual reaction...
The creature on the table, which had been on the verge of death, had its light spot in the center of its umbrella flicker rapidly a few times.
She turned slightly towards Wang Xiaoxiao.
Then, before anyone could react, its jelly-like body suddenly contracted.
It leaped off the table and pounced straight at Wang Xiaoxiao, who was blinking at it.
"Be careful!"
"Little one!"
Several exclamations rang out at the same time.
Wang Xiaoxiao was startled and instinctively raised her small hand to cover her face: "You big bad guy, don't come any closer!"
Just as it was about to reach her, the umbrella opened, revealing a tiny, round mouthpart underneath, which bit down on Wang Xiaoxiao's fingertip!
"Damn it!"
Jiang Shi was closest and reacted the fastest. He roared and stretched out his right hand.
"Big brother! Wait a minute!"
Just as Jiang Shi's finger was about to touch the pink creature, Wang Xiaoxiao suddenly shouted.
Jiang abruptly stopped his movements, his fingers hovering in mid-air.
They looked on in astonishment.
All that could be seen was a small, light pink tooth mark left on Wang Xiaoxiao's fingertip.
But it quickly heals and recovers at a speed visible to the naked eye, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
After taking that bite, the pink creature neither attacked nor fled.
She opened her mouth, her whole body floated up, and she hid behind Wang Xiaoxiao's shoulder.
Two slender arms and feet hooked onto Wang Xiaoxiao's collar, her whole body trembling.
It made a pitiful, frightened sound, "Bru, bru..."
The somewhat dim pink glow on her body was significantly restored after absorbing Wang Xiaoxiao's blood.
This unexpected turn of events left all nine people stunned once again.
What, what's going on here?
Bai Yubing reacted extremely quickly, almost the very next second after the monster hid behind Wang Xiaoxiao.
She got up from her seat, took two steps to Wang Xiaoxiao's side, and grabbed her little hand.
He carefully examined the fingertip that had just been bitten, and then asked repeatedly:
"Xiaoxiao, are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
"It's okay, Sister Bai, it doesn't hurt at all, it's just itchy."
Wang Xiaoxiao shook her head, withdrew her hand, and looked embarrassed.
Bai Yubing was relieved after confirming that she was really alright.
Then, his eyes turned cold as he looked at the pink creature still hiding behind Wang Xiaoxiao's neck.
Reaching out, he directly pinched the jelly-like umbrella cap and pulled it out from behind Wang Xiaoxiao.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, he was thrown to the center of the round table.
Bai Yubing returned to her seat expressionlessly.
Jiang Shi watched as her profile quickly regained its coldness, recalling what Wang Xiaoxiao had secretly told him about Bai Yubing's cold exterior but warm interior.
Considering his reaction just now, he couldn't help but mutter to himself: Could it be that Captain Bai is really the kind of person who appears aloof on the surface but has a soft heart...?
Bai Yubing sat down, looked at Wang Xiaoxiao again, and asked in a deep voice:
"Xiaoxiao, what just happened? Why did it attack you, and why did it hide behind you?"
Wang Xiaoxiao's face flushed red instantly, and she touched her two index fingers together, feeling a little guilty.
"Um... um..."
"What is it?" Jiang Shi asked, his curiosity piqued.
Judging from the little guy's reaction, there must be more to the story.
Wang Xiaoxiao raised her head, glanced at the table, and said...
"It just sent me a little message, saying that I am a little devil, begging me not to hit it anymore, and that it has recognized me as its master."
"It just bit me, it's called something like 'Drip Blood is the Main'..."
