Chapter 94 Assisting in Demonic Growth
As the child's eyes began to turn increasingly bloodshot, it was as if his own power was being drawn back, and Liu Chun tried his best to stop him.
"Hey! Didn't I tell you not to resist?"
Amid Liu Chun's roars, the child seemed not to hear a word he said, and even though the two were standing face to face, he did not react at all.
Feeling his internal energy rapidly draining away, Liu Chun quickly pushed it away. If it had been any later, Liu Chun might have had to revert to his normal state.
"That kid!"
The child stared at Liu Chun expressionlessly for a while, making sure he wouldn't try to get any closer, before sitting cross-legged in the center of the iron cage to consolidate the power he had just gained.
Liu Chun observed from the outside, and in his mind, he had a pretty good idea of what the child was doing.
Then he found a long wooden stick in the room and stretched it out towards the child.
Just as the stick was about to touch him, the child opened his eyes and suddenly grabbed the stick that Liu Chun had put in, and began to pull Liu Chun into the iron cage.
"Were they just waiting for me?"
Liu Chun instinctively wanted to let go, but his hands felt like they were stuck to the wooden stick. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't let go. So, he jumped up and braced his feet against the iron railing to prevent the child from pulling him inside.
"Is it a contest of who's stronger?" Liu Chun mobilized his internal energy and began to exert force to pull outwards.
The child also felt the pressure, mainly because of the limitations of his body; otherwise, Liu Chun would have had no chance to fight back.
"what!"
The child inside the iron cage let out a weak roar, but it was terrifying, because judging from his current state, if he were an adult, Liu Chun would be no match for him.
I don't know what kind of 'ancient artifact' power Hai Xuan infused into him, but the power that erupted was so strong.
Could it be that the "antique" is currently on this little child?
Although this possibility has not been ruled out, if he were to escape from here and learn properly from Si Huajin and the others, in time Liu Chun and the others would be left to stand there and take the beatings without anyone else even lifting a finger.
"You definitely can't leave here, and even though you've got my arm under control, you can't leave either, or I'm leaving."
Having determined that the monster before him was no ordinary being intelligent, Liu Chun quickly shouted towards the door, "Pang Wenke, if you don't have anything to do, can you come in first?"
Outside the door, Pang Wenke didn't rush in, but instead asked, "Brother Liu, what's wrong?"
"Stop talking nonsense and come help!"
Liu Chun's face was contorted with rage, and the prolonged stalemate had drained him of much of his strength. He was now gradually losing his strength and was about to crash into the iron railing.
Upon hearing the noise, Pang Wenke immediately led his men in. At that moment, Liu Chun, having exhausted his strength, rammed straight into the iron railing in front of him.
This shocked them.
"Hurry and help!"
Pang Wenke rushed forward to help, pulling the wooden stick back. With everyone's help, Liu Chun quickly felt much better and sincerely hoped that this condition could continue.
"Brother Liu, I just went out to relax for a while, what... what's going on?!"
Liu Chun glanced at him and explained, "This monster is rather peculiar and dangerous. In any case, if we manage to resolve this trouble later, we'd better take a close look and make sure it doesn't get away."
After listening to Liu Chun's brief explanation, he quickly understood what was going on. Moreover, bringing this kind of danger back to the organization would be very dangerous, so now he had a reason to refuse the requests from those people inside the organization.
but……
With a ferocious expression, Pang Wenke hurriedly looked at Liu Chun and asked, "Brother Liu, this kid's strength doesn't seem like that of a newborn. What exactly happened in this room just now?"
Liu Chun was quite embarrassed by this, but he still offered an explanation: "He absorbed some of the 'internal energy' power from my body, which is why he looks much stronger than a newborn."
"Ah! Well, you really are..." The words he was about to say were swallowed back down. Pang Wenke quickly reorganized his thoughts and hurriedly changed his words, saying, "...Brother Liu, are you alright? Should I call 120 right now?"
"No need." Liu Chun glanced at Pang Wenke and said irritably, "If something really happens to me, none of us will be in a good position, understand?"
"I understand... I understand."
I think you just don't understand!
Liu Chun returned to arguing with the child, taking advantage of a moment when the child was not paying attention, he suddenly pulled him away, causing him to fall to the ground, and then quickly let go. This time he succeeded.
"Everyone, get away from this cage quickly, lest you end up like me, clinging on tightly and unable to let go. That could really cause an accident."
As the children got up and lunged at the people near the iron cage, they reacted quickly to dodge. One of them was grabbed by the clothes and dragged into the iron cage by the children. Fortunately, Liu Chun and the others were nearby and cut the clothes in time, which prevented him from being forcibly dragged in.
Looking at the child who had been completely corrupted by demons, Liu Chun and Pang Wenke felt a mix of emotions. If it weren't for the insistence from above, would this child have been normal to begin with?
"Brother Liu, there's really no way to deal with this now, right?" Pang Wenke seemed to have accepted reality, feeling that the child's fate was sealed and they could only eliminate him.
"Let him calm down first. I'll take a good look at him this time. If it's really not working, then you can just take him back to the organization."
Pang Wenke nodded, allowing the child in the iron cage to fall asleep successfully. Only then did he lead the others out of the room, waiting outside as before. This time, he wouldn't leave the room even for a moment.
The room quickly returned to silence. Liu Chun snapped his fingers and said directly, "System, in my current state, or given the child's unconscious state, can I still perform the actions we discussed earlier?"
After a long while, the system finally responded, and soon the panel information appeared before Liu Chun's eyes:
[Detecting according to host requirements!!!]
[If the host insists on saving people, there's no problem. However, some of the 'ancient artifact' power within him will not be completely lost. Please choose carefully!]
Does "not being completely lost" mean that it can't be fully absorbed into one's body?
Amidst a jumble of thoughts, Liu Chun still felt that absorbing even a little bit was better than nothing, as if he should leave it all to him.
As for the risk of further demonization, as long as the child isn't taken away by Hai Xuan and the others, there shouldn't be any problems.
Through the iron cage, Liu Chun once again used his power to absorb the 'ancient artifacts' from the children's bodies. Once all the artifacts that were supposed to come out had been absorbed, he got up and sat further away, not wanting to get close to the children.
"Given the effects of the medication, he should have regained consciousness by now, right?"
As Liu Chun wiped his hands, he muttered to himself. In the blink of an eye, when he turned around and looked back at the iron cage, the child had somehow managed to escape from it.
"you!"
Without any further ado, the child immediately attacked Liu Chun and quickly fought his way out of the room.
He originally wanted to have a good fight, but the voice inside him decided to leave first. In the end, the child only glanced at Liu Chun and fled the place before they could react.
Pang Wenke led his men in pursuit, but they lost sight of their target halfway there and had to return empty-handed.
Liu Chun's attempt to sense the child was of little use; the child had run too far, making the senses blurry and essentially meaningless.
