Some of them even have special abilities, and eating them can give you great strength.

Of course, that only applies to ordinary people, and it is useless for someone as powerful as Ling Yi.

127. Human cubs are cute (refresh the upper right corner)

In a quiet courtyard in the imperial capital, the grass exudes a fresh fragrance and wild flowers sway gently in the breeze.

Lingyi sat on the soft grass under an old tree, the sunlight shining through the shade casting mottled marks on her golden hair.

Her emerald green eyes shone with warmth in the soft light, and she was surrounded by a group of little creatures.

A little guy sat on her lap, holding a crystal exotic fruit in his hands, his pink little face full of curiosity.

The other one was gently held in Lingyi's arms, her soft hair rubbing against her arm, and her tender white hands clutched the corner of her clothes, as if she was afraid that she would leave at any time.

There was a little loli on each side, close to Lingyi, their petite bodies almost sticking to her.

The clear laughter of children came to my ears, and their innocent smiles were like blooming flowers in the sunshine, filled with pure joy.

Lingyi's gaze also became softer, and a warm arc unconsciously appeared at the corners of his mouth.

This is the beautiful thing she is pursuing and wants to protect...

"Sister, this tastes amazing!"

The little guy on my lap was as excited as if he had found a treasure, and his eyes were as bright as the stars in the night sky.

She held the exotic fruit up to Lingyi expectantly, clearly eager to share it.

Lingyi lowered her head and took a light bite - the fruit tasted sweet with a strong strawberry flavor, and it tasted really good.

Of course, she had tasted these fruits before. After all, they were things she brought back, so she had to personally confirm whether they were safe before giving them to the little ones.

But she still pretended to be surprised and praised in a light voice, "Well, it's really incredible."

She reached out and rubbed the little girl's head, and the gentle praise made the little girl smile even sweeter.

This scene seemed to ignite the enthusiasm of the other little girls. Three little hands were raised almost at the same time, holding three fruits of different colors, and rushed to Lingyi.

Clear, childish voices rose and fell, full of expectation and dependence:

"Master, please taste mine."

"Goddess, this is delicious!"

"Master Lingyi, try mine too."

Three little faces looked up at her side by side, and their big watery eyes all revealed dependence and intimacy.

At this moment, the soft spot in Lingyi's heart seemed to be hit precisely.

All she saw were beautiful and lovely things. Surrounded by them, she felt like her heart was about to melt.

The cub is really cute~

If Lingyi hadn't been afraid of scaring the little ones, she would probably have picked them up and sucked them by now.

..........

After spending some time with the little ones, Lingyi got down to business.

She came back this time mainly to explain some things——

"As the older sister, Ico has to take good care of my sisters while Patchy and I are away."

Lingyi warned Esdeath.

When she and Patchouli were hunters outside, they did not bring Esdeath with them because the environment was full of unknowns and dangers. Esdeath, who stayed at home, took on the responsibility of taking care of and protecting her sisters.

After this, that won't change.

As for the three lolita sisters, Lingyi originally planned to send them back to their respective homes. Their parents are basically still alive.

However, the three little lolis refused. They wanted to stay, on the one hand, to repay Lingyi for saving their lives - so much so that one of the lolis called Lingyi "Master", a completely spontaneous name, and Lingyi couldn't correct it even if he wanted to.

Once corrected, the little guy will look desperate and sad, as if he is about to be abandoned.

On the other hand, after experiencing what happened before, they also want to become stronger like Esdeath.

Lingyi did not accept their reward, but did not force them to leave either.

Instead, I told them that I would not restrict them here, and that they could still decide for themselves what they wanted to do in the future.

"And then this—"

Lingyi took out a cup of blood.

The Imperial Tool [Magic God Appearance: Devil's Essence] mainly allows the person who drinks it to gain the ability to control ice.

Lingyi vaguely remembered that Esdeath was an ice player, so she paid special attention to the ice-attributed imperial weapon.

Among these imperial tools, Patchouli helped her find the strongest one, which was the [Demon God Appearance: Devil's Essence], which looked like dangerous blood in a container.

This is also one of the few Imperial Gear that Lingyi can appreciate. As for other Imperial Gear, Lingyi can only say that they are fancy but not very meaningful, with too low upper limit and not strong enough.

But what Lingyi wanted to give to Esdeath was not the original [Magic God Appearance: Devil's Essence]. The original imperial weapon was indeed very powerful and could be ranked among the best among all imperial weapons.

But it's not strong enough.

So they found the source of the blood and strengthened it, giving it a higher upper limit and ability.

The enhanced [Demon God Appearance·Essence of Demon] was even of great help to Lingyi herself, so she had actually already drunk a glass of it, and also gained an additional skill [Ice Control: LV1].

"This imperial weapon's ability should be very suitable for you."

More importantly, this is one of the few imperial artifacts that is not considered an external force.

After drinking this blood, as long as one can withstand the power in it, then this power will completely belong to the blood drinker, become one with the blood drinker, and no one else can take it away.

But since they have all been given, we cannot favor one over the other.

Lingyi asked the other three lolis to choose a favorite imperial weapon as well.

There is still a lot of blood of [Demon God Appears·Essence of Demon], but unfortunately these three little guys can't withstand the power of the blood.

Esdeath might not be able to withstand it now, even though this is the imperial weapon she will possess in the future.

So when Esdeath drank the blood, Lingyi had to watch from the side.

In the end, the three little guys respectively obtained the water-controlling imperial weapon [Water Dragon Possession·Dark Marin], the [Thunder God's Wrath·Admiller] repaired by Patchouli, and... the armor-shaped imperial weapon [Noble Chariot].

The little one with short dark blue hair and a quiet personality chose [Water Dragon Possession], the little one with short golden hair and a lively personality chose [Thor's Wrath], and the remaining little one has long pink hair and a gentle personality. She is the oldest among the three and vaguely plays the role of an older sister.

Lingyi didn't know why this gentle child chose the armored imperial weapon.

She only hoped that the little girl would change her mind in the future. If that didn't work, at least she wouldn't grow up to be a bold and resolute female knight. If she wanted to be a knight, she should at least be a beautiful and elegant knight princess.

128. (Refresh) Never let any pest go!

In addition to the imperial weapons, Lingyi also left behind statues and taught them how to use them to grow and become stronger.

The specific method is very simple. Just take her place and continue to carry out her will.

To punish evil and promote good, to kill pests and rescue innocent people who are suffering.

In addition to the matters concerning these little guys, Lingyi has another thing to do.

This time, it took me half a month to collect materials with Patchouli.

It's not long, but it's definitely not short either. It's about time to check and see if there are any new pests popping up.

Besides, she is about to leave and will not be back for at least a month, so of course she should clean up before leaving.

By the way, her [Prototype of Hell] is currently lacking nutrients.

Currently, [Prototype of Hell] only has the function of storing souls, and the number of souls it can store is not large, with a capacity of only 1000 people.

Compared with the effect of the eighth room, this improvement is not a small amount, but for Lingyi, it is still not enough.

Just chop two pests and it will be full.

In the past, there was no means to store souls in large quantities, so Lingyi could only resort to torturing the pests and then completely eliminating them.

Now that we have such means, if they benefit the pests due to insufficient capacity, Lingyi will be very uncomfortable.

I let you run away before I received the gift, and I let you run away again after I received the gift. So, didn’t I receive the gift in vain?

It would also be a waste of Patch's kindness.

This is absolutely not okay!

So Lingyi was eager to collect the souls of pests to feed the little hell.

It would be best if there were pests, but the number of pests was just not too small so that they could be used to feed the little hell without being too much for it to eat.

Coincidentally, the Red Eye World meets the requirements.

However, Lingyi had complicated feelings about this matter. She wasn't happy just because she could feed Little Hell—

"I don't understand why this pest has to be treated like this? It's only been a short time, and you're showing up again?"

Ling Yi looked at the man lying on the ground in front of her with disgust.

"I, I was just possessed by the devil for a moment... Please spare me... Please..."

"Tsk."

Lingyi's answer was the flash of a knife, cutting it into small pieces to make臊子.

Then, a black halo that served as a small hell appeared above Ling Yi's head, emitting black light and absorbing the man's soul.

Even though it could feed Little Hell, Lingyi still hated seeing new pests appear.

Fortunately, after screening the humans again, the total number of newly emerged pests did not exceed the current upper limit of the small hell - there were only more than 700 people in total.

It only accounts for about 0.01 percent of the human population.

The number was very small, which made Ling Yi give up the plan of creating new wonders and conducting further intimidation.

After consuming the souls of more than 700 people, the little hell immediately began to grow.

The souls themselves, the various emotions emitted by these souls, and the karmic retribution carried by these souls are all nutrients for the minor hells.

All souls will be digested by the small hell after entering it. Theoretically, every soul will be completely digested.

But Lingyi can control the strength of it - just like eating a piece of candy, the candy will continue to melt in the mouth until it disappears completely, but when there is only the last bit left, Lingyi chooses not to lick it anymore.

Lingyi will let the small hell digest the excess parts of these souls as much as possible, and only keep these souls in the lowest state at all times, just enough to maintain their form and self-awareness.

And doing so is actually beneficial to long-term development.

The nutrients needed by the small hell are not only the souls themselves, but the emotions they emit can also serve as nutrients. Although the quality and quantity are not as good as the souls themselves, the advantage of being able to be harvested repeatedly cannot be ignored.

.........

"So, why did Patch suddenly prepare this surprise gift for me?"

After returning to the main god space, before starting the next task, Lingyi and Patchouli planned to sort out their gains.

The main thing is to promote the faith and obtain many imperial tools from the world of Akagi Slash.

Although most of the Teigu are useless in Lingyi's opinion, there are also some useful Teigu.

For example, a series of elemental control imperial tools, headed by the ice-controlling Demonic Essence, are all quite useful.

For example, the imperial weapon for controlling water, [Water Dragon Possession], that thing even has some connection with the concept - not only can it control water, but things like blood can also be controlled as water.

Lingyi can even use this to create a river of blood that is completely controlled by her and acts as an extension of her will.

I have to say that although the humans in that world are not very strong, there are indeed many good points because of the dangerous species.

Although Lingyi gave these imperial tools to Esdeath and others, they were actually replicas made by Patchouli.

Although the technology to create imperial weapons had been lost in the empire for at least hundreds of years.

However, Patchouli, relying on her vast knowledge reserves and attainments in alchemy, has mastered the methods of making and replicating imperial equipment through her research on them.

And they also hunted a lot of rare materials, so of course they need to be sorted out.

While sorting out the harvest, Lingyi couldn't help but ask out of curiosity again.
