Text Game: It All Began when a Cat-eared Girl Took Me In-Chapter 188 - 163: Mother-in-law Lord Is Awesome! Prairie Spark!(6k)_1
"[You died]"
"[Talent: Moonflow·Zero Point has been triggered]"
"[Do you choose to rewind to the zero hour of today?]"
"[Yes]"
...
"[Traveler, your spirit has undergone intense chaos. All attributes of your role in the Dream World have decreased by 10% (This negative state cannot be reversed by resurrection, and its duration is 8 hours)]"
A cold wind passed by Luo Xi’s ear.
His head shook slightly as he raised it.
What he saw before him was still that square filled with guards and soldiers, with that man named Zide not yet having cleared the guards from the scene.
"[Remaining synchronization time: 8 minutes]"
Last time, Noss appeared around six or seven minutes in.
Before the guards noticed them, Luo Xi tapped Spark’s armor twice and whispered,
"Cat Cat, come out."
"Are we good now? Meow—"
Just as Wei’er poked her head out in confusion, Luo Xi pressed against her cheek and pulled her down, then with a flash of white light, Spark was stowed away in his bag.
The cat-eared girl, having been roughly handled by Luo Xi, covered her face (〃＞＿＜〃) and said, "You pervert, what are you doing... What’s wrong with you?"
Wei’er halted her complaining as she noticed Luo Xi’s complexion didn’t seem very good.
"No time to explain, let’s go."
Luo Xi scooped up the still bewildered Wei’er in his arms.
He turned into a blur, sprinting towards the direction of the Mansion of the City Lord.
Although he incidentally nestled the soft and delicate body of Cat Cat into his arms, he couldn’t stir any other emotions at the moment, not even the slightest thought of taking advantage of the situation.
"[Note: Abbreviation, Sage Time]"
He couldn’t be bothered to mock the Damn Text.
"[Ding! Wei’er’s Embarrassment Value towards you +10]"
"Put me down, I can walk on my own..."
Wei’er muttered, giving up after a slight struggle.
There was no way around it, the pervert was holding her too tightly.
The girl looked at Luo Xi’s face, which seemed calm but tired.
"What on earth happened..."
Suddenly, Wei’er saw Luo Xi’s expression stiffen.
The girl turned her head in confusion toward that direction.
A figure of an old man appeared in the alley ahead.
Who was this old man?
Luo Xi came to an abrupt halt and ran back the way they had come. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
His heart was already cursing.
Damn.
Noss had arrived in less than a minute.
This guy’s other body was definitely keeping an eye on them and must have come over to block their escape as soon as he realized they were trying to run away.
Lu Xi originally wanted to use Liya’s workshop to hide from Noss.
As long as he could delay until the young City Owner Hill came to, that would be enough.
After all, from various signs in the past, Rat King Nos didn’t dare to kill that child, even though the child had already fainted.
But Noss didn’t give them the time to get to the Mansion of the City Lord, not even a minute.
Mice and snakes, both equally cunning creatures.
So, they had to go back.
Perhaps they could reveal his identity and have the Winter Legion confront him.
...
Zide bent down to pick up the small City Owner lying on the ground, handing him over to a subordinate.
Looking in the direction where the previous individual had disappeared, he sighed slightly with a hint of regret.
Why run off in such a hurry?
He had finally seen the person Mr. Alte talked about and had wanted to speak with him more.
Of course, he also understood that the other party was probably afraid of being caught.
Zide glanced at the tattered cloth on the ground with disdain and smiled.
He heard some subordinates talking about avenging the Governor.
Avenging that guy?
All he wanted to say was, good riddance!
Once they slaughtered that dogshit Judge Delkus, Winter City could finally get back on the right track.
"Hmm?"
Zide suddenly looked up ahead: "Why have they come back?"
The young man with horn-like mutation features, holding a cat-eared girl, was charging towards them, yelling out loud,
"Your Legion Commander has been possessed by Rat King Noss!"
Legion Commander? Possessed?
What in the world?
Zide frowned.
However, when he saw the old man leisurely walking behind the two, who looked slow yet moved like the wind, Zide’s eyes first lit up with surprise, then grew somber.
Was that really... Lord Sigano, the Legion Commander?
As soon as Luo Xi arrived, it was no surprise that they were surrounded by a group of soldiers.
The old man behind them strolled leisurely to the scene.
Many of the soldiers saluted him, even the towering power armors bowed their heads in respect.
"Lord Commander, you have finally arrived!"
The old man raised his hand, his somewhat aged voice echoing across the square: "I have brought back the invaders. Tonight, I shall continue to preside over the Divine Tree Festival. All the invaders will be sacrificed to the Winter Divine Tree as their penance for the dead."
All the soldiers around him hailed the Lord Commander’s wisdom.
Luo Xi’s heart sank.
If Noss could maintain his disguise for even a short while, the idea of using the Winter Legion against him was completely unfeasible.
The situation was now even worse than the first time, as back then he only had to face Noss alone.
As the soldiers and guards closed in, Luo Xi gently placed Wei’er down from his arms.
Wei’er looked around anxiously, "What do we do now? Why did you run back here? Are you stupid?"
Then, amid the girl’s anxious gaze, Luo Xi pulled out the Dreamstaff.
