Chapter 462 Signal
Chapter 462 Signal
Upon hearing what Moros said, Lin Xiyue felt a surge of excitement and couldn't wait to tell him what she had seen.
"Mmm-mmm-mmm—"
However, just as she opened her mouth to speak, she suddenly realized that she was too weak to make a clear sound and could only utter small, almost inaudible sobs.
She could only let out weak sobs, sounds so insignificant in the noisy environment, as if they might be drowned out at any moment. Lin Xiyue was extremely anxious; she desperately wanted to make Moros understand what she meant, but her body was completely unresponsive.
"what happened?"
Upon hearing Lin Xiyue's voice, Meros immediately became alert.
He held Lin Xiyue tightly, took two steps back, and protected her in his arms.
At the same time, he quickly scanned his surroundings to make sure there were no potential dangers.
Seeing that Lin Xiyue did not respond, Moros's worries intensified.
He looked down at Lin Xiyue in his arms and saw that her face was pale and her lips were trembling slightly, as if she was in great pain.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Meros lowered his head and asked softly, his tone full of concern.
However, Lin Xiyue could only let out pitiful whimpers, which made Moros frown and gently pat her back to comfort her.
[The host sent me to convey what she wanted to say.]
Just then, the system's voice suddenly rang in Meros's mind.
Although the voice was somewhat humble, it gave Meros a slight sense of relief.
At least, he knew that Lin Xiyue could still remember to communicate with him using the system.
"Well, you said."
When Moros heard that he was relaying Lin Xiyue's words, his tense expression relaxed slightly, and he smiled and said softly.
[The host says she just saw a few seconds into the future before taking this action. She now wants to know if she hit it?]
The system then began to relay Lin Xiyue's words at a leisurely pace.
However, just as the system was about to finish answering Lin Xiyue's question, it suddenly paused, immediately sensing that something was wrong.
[No, host, why didn't you ask me? I can see it too! Why do you have to ask Boss Mo?]
Immediately afterwards, the system's voice became somewhat indignant and rang in Lin Xiyue's mind.
"You're so lonely, you single dog, oh no, I mean, single boss!"
Lin Xiyue was clearly surprised by the system's reaction. She rolled her eyes in Molos's arms, gave a disdainful look, and said irritably.
[You! You! How dare you say that to me?! Humph, I'm cutting ties with you for a minute!!]
The system shouted angrily, its voice filled with dissatisfaction and grievance.
After saying that, the system severed its connection with Lin Xiyue without hesitation, completely isolating itself from the outside world.
Yes, the system chose to be frustrated or angry over feeling frustrated.
Lin Xiyue was quite prepared for the system's sudden reaction, because this was exactly what she wanted.
The moment the system shut down, she subconsciously called out to it in her mind, but received no response. This made her realize that the system was indeed unable to hear their conversation.
Having confirmed this, Lin Xiyue immediately concentrated and used all her strength to rhythmically tap on Moros's arm.
Each strike represents a specific signal, the meaning of which only the two of them can understand.
Meros keenly sensed Lin Xiyue's movements, his eyes sharpening as he stared intently at her hands. He silently absorbed the information Lin Xiyue was conveying, piecing it together in his mind to form a complete meaning.
Time flew by, and a minute soon passed.
Just then, Lin Xiyue seemed to have suddenly lost all her strength, and her body went limp and collapsed into Molos's arms.
Her breathing became somewhat rapid, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on her forehead, clearly indicating that the previous actions had taken a lot of her energy.
[Hmm, I'm back. Have you thought about your mistakes? Do you know you were wrong now? (*^▽^*)]
The system's voice rang in Lin Xiyue's ears, carrying a hint of anticipation.
Lin Xiyue chuckled inwardly. This system was quite clever, but she also knew that she had indeed acted somewhat inappropriately just now.
"Yeah, I miss you. I was wrong, I shouldn't have just told the truth and said you were single."
Lin Xiyue's tone was sincere. She had finished conveying the message to Molos, and now it was time to appease the system.
[Hmm, then you'd better buy me the latest plugin, or I won't forgive you.]
The system's voice was somewhat arrogant, pouting its tiny, invisible lips as it demanded compensation from Lin Xiyue with an air of self-righteousness.
Lin Xiyue smiled helplessly, not minding fulfilling the system's little wish.
"Okay, okay, I'll buy them all for you. How about this plugin? You can read novels with it."
As Lin Xiyue spoke, she browsed through the system's plugin store, trying to find some entertainment plugins that the system might be interested in but weren't very useful.
[Great! This is great! I like it!]
Upon hearing this, the system immediately became excited, forgetting everything that had just happened, and enthusiastically discussed the new plugin with Lin Xiyue.
"Yes, baby, you hit it. Don't worry, I'll handle the rest."
Meros smiled slightly, revealing a reassuring smile.
After the system returned, Meros quickly adjusted his state and continued the previous topic as if nothing had happened, as if there had been no communication between him and Lin Xiyue.
His voice was steady and firm, giving people a sense of reliability.
At the same time, Meros's eyes narrowed slightly as the events that had just occurred flashed through his mind.
He combined the information Lin Xiyue gave him with his own observations, and gradually gained a better understanding of the situation.
Judging from Lin Xiyue's deliberate provocation of the system, which caused the system to temporarily leave, Moros keenly realized that the system must have encountered some problems that it itself was unaware of.
Moreover, based on Lin Xiyue's description of what she had seen, Moros became even more convinced of this.
Therefore, Meros decided to cooperate with Lin Xiyue and temporarily conceal this fact from the system.
Just then, Li Si suddenly came over.
"Boss, what do we do now? That thing was destroyed by my sister-in-law's attack, but the residual energy concentration in the air is still very high."
Li Si looked at Meros with a troubled expression, while maintaining the protective shield in a slightly awkward posture, clearly finding the current situation troublesome.
