"Isn't it normal for rats to be afraid of cats? This has been discussed for so long." Butler Dog muttered in a low voice: "Compared with these, I am more curious about why Angel suddenly took it out?
"
As the dog steward said this, he took a half-drunk step and tried to get closer to see the mouse.
However, as soon as the dog steward took a few steps closer, Nakbi in the cage burst out again and began to run away frantically in the cage.
This time it ran around even more crazily. Even if it hit the edge of the cage, it would stand up again and change directions and continue running.
Seeing this scene, Luigi sighed and blocked the way forward of the canine butler, blocking Nakbi's view along the way.
Nakbi didn't see the Butler Dog, so it calmed down a little. However, its milky white hair was still open, because the vague scent of the Butler Dog in the air did not really disappear, which made it very frightened.
.
Looking at Nakbi's cautious movements and the stiff expression of the canine butler, Luigi said calmly: "Don't worry, as you said, it's normal for rats to be afraid of cats. In the same way, it's normal for rats to be afraid of dogs.
Is it a normal thing?”
Listening to the familiar words spoken by Luigi, the canine butler's expression was a little ugly, but he was unable to refute, because what Luigi said was true. And for the evidence, just look at Nuckby's reaction.
"How cowardly." The dog steward looked at the rat cage, cursed a few times in a low voice, and returned to the dog's paw pillow: "Even I am afraid. You will encounter snakes, owls, and rat-eating wolves in the future.
Shouldn’t he be frightened to death?”
Listening to the canine butler's complaints, Luigi touched his chin and thought seriously: "What you said makes sense. I really need to exercise its courage in the future, or avoid it from meeting these natural enemies."
The canine butler rolled his eyes at Luigi angrily: "I'm not giving it advice...forget it, let's get back to the topic. Why did Angel take it out suddenly? What happened to it?"
The Dog Butler asked this question to Angel, but it was Luigi who answered him.
Luigi: "Didn't I just say that?"
Butler Dog: "???" When did you say that?
Luigi sneered coldly: "I just asked Angel a question, don't tell me you forgot?"
Naturally, the canine butler did not forget that when Luigi saw Angel taking out the cage, he asked: Is Nakbi awake?
But, is this the reason?
Facing the canine butler's suspicious gaze, Luigi nodded: "That's the reason."
The Dog Butler looked disbelieving and turned to look at Angel. And Angel followed Luigi's words and nodded in agreement: "Yes, this is indeed the reason."
Dog Butler: "..."
Seeing that the dog steward was speechless, Angel explained the origin of Nakbi and also talked about Beamon.
"That is to say, it is actually not important. What is important is that it has a bond with Beamon, and Beamon is the invented mouse that you value?" After listening to this, Butler Dog gave a summary of his own understanding.
To Angel's ears, there is nothing wrong with this summary, and that's about it.
But after Luigi listened, he retorted directly: "No, Nakbi is also important. Its value is just not reflected yet."
Dog Butler looked suspicious: "What is its value?"
Except that she looks very similar to Pi Feifei, she has no strengths at all, and her intelligence is at the bottom. What value can this have?
Luigi sneered: "That's just because you can't see it yourself."
While talking, Luigi also pulled Angel: "Angel also knows, right."
Angel: "???" What do I know?
Just as Angel was about to speak, Luigi added: "What makes Nakbi special is what Angel told me."
Upon hearing this, Angel understood that the original Riddler effect had taken effect again.
It has been so long, Luigi can still think of the time when he casually "acted", and Angel was speechless in his heart.
But after all, he was the one who performed the Riddler in the first place, so he was really embarrassed to dismantle himself, so he could only follow Luigi's words, chuckle and nod.
Seeing that Angel nodded, Butler Dog felt even more confused, and even began to doubt his own judgment. He knew that Luigi was unreliable, but Angel... after his observation, he shouldn't have an out-of-the-box character.
People should not tell lies in this regard.
Could it be that this nakbi really has value that it has not discovered?
Nakby carefully observed Nakby in the cage, and also used the ability to read minds. However, it only read "fear", "horror", "so full" and "want to run in circles"
information, there is no other information.
It can probably understand the first two messages. What are "so full" and "want to run laps"?
Nakbi carefully observed Nakbi, which also led others to pay attention to Nakbi.
However, Xiaohong and Sipolov were both observing the Nakbiben rat, while Luigi and Laplace were scanning the cage. The reason why they observed the cage was because they discovered a strange place.
Laplace muttered in a low voice: "Gone..."
Luigi also followed: "It is indeed gone. Did Angel put it away? Or was it... eaten by it?"
"What's missing?" Butler Dog looked over in confusion.
Luigi ignored the canine butler and looked up at Angel, as if asking him for advice.
Angel: "I didn't put it away, maybe it was eaten..."
After a while of puzzles between them, Dog Butler finally got the answer from Angel.
They have a spiral-patterned "pointed fruit", which is a lower-level substitute for the bestiality fruit. Its effect is probably to allow dumb beasts to have the ability to communicate.
Because Nakbi was too stupid to even learn how to speak. So, they found sharp fruits and planned to use them to help Nakbi speak.
The reason why Nakbi fell asleep in the cage before was because he was stimulated by the spiral pattern of the pointed fruit.
Although Nakbi fell asleep due to the spiral pattern, Angel and others did not take away the sharp berries, but left them in the cage.
Now that only Nakby was left in the cage, but the spiral pattern was gone, the answer was self-evident: after Nakby woke up, he ate the sharp nut.
In fact, Angel was not surprised by this. In order to let Nakbi eat the sharp berries, Angel used magic to hint to Nakbi, making him regard the sharp berries as the thing he wanted to eat the most.
Although Nakbi fainted, the "hint" did not end. After Nakby woke up, the hint took effect again, so he immediately ran to swallow the sharp fruit. This is normal.
The only thing that surprised Angel was that the pointed fruit was not small. It was almost as big as Nakbi. Why couldn't Nakbi eat it at all? It looked round.
I've grown a little, and my belly seems a little bigger, but if you look closely, it seems to be an illusion.
Facing Angel's doubts, Laplace gave the answer: "The sharp fruit is a very strange fruit. As long as it bites it, the energy inside will turn into a juice and fall into its body."
Therefore, the reason why Nakbi could not tell that he had eaten a sharp fruit was simply because the pulp turned into a concentrated energy liquid.
It's not visible on the surface, but Nakbi's demand for energy has actually reached its peak. Judging from the current situation, it is estimated that he will not need to consume other energy for ten days and a half.
Angel showed a look of realization: "So that's it."
As soon as they finished speaking, Luigi couldn't help but say: "Whether it's full or not is another matter. What's more important now is that since it has already eaten the sharp nuts, why can't it say a few words?"
?”
As Luigi spoke, he squatted next to the cage, trying to get Nakbi to speak by teasing him.
However, no matter how Luigi teased it, it did not make a sound, but curled up in the corner and shivered.
Seeing that Nakbi was completely ignoring him, Luigi frowned and said, "Is that Beast Whispering Fruit fake?"
Laplace: "To correct you, that pointed fruit is just the inferior fruit of the Beast Whispering Fruit, not the so-called Beast Whispering Fruit."
Angel: "Let me correct you. There are so many people around, and there are cats and dogs. Even if it can talk, it will probably be too scared to speak."
If this complaint was made by the Dog Butler, Luigi would definitely refute it, but facing the dual pressure from Laplace and Angel, he could only raise the white flag and said: "What should we do?"
Angel thought for a while: "Leave it to me."
Luigi looked at Angel's expression and probably guessed what he wanted to do, so he took the initiative to give up his position.
The next second, Angel snapped his fingers, and a thin magical mist immediately surged around, covering the cage tightly.
However, this time the phantom fog is different from before, it is one-sided.
In other words, Nakbi cannot see the world outside the fog, but Angel and others can see through the fog and see Nakbi inside.
Covered by the mist, Nakbi's stiff body slowly began to relax.
It has no concept of "these mist is actually just a paper lake", and it is absolutely unable to resist people who really want to harm it.
It just thinks that if it can't see anyone outside, then it will be safe... It's just a purely deceptive idea.
However, this is normal. The "pointed fruits" Nakbi eats are only to help it speak, not to improve its thinking logic. With its current wisdom, it can be defensive when seeing outsiders, which is actually very good.
Not bad.
Under the cover of the fog, Nakbi slowly collapsed into a "rat cake". It can also be seen from this that Nakbi has completely relaxed his psychological boundaries.
However, just relaxing your guard will not make it speak. An external stimulus is also needed.
And the best stimulation, without a doubt, is Naxu, or Behemoth.
It's just that Beamon is currently studying at Pilu Xiu's station, and there is no way to summon Beamon, so Angel chose to use magic to create an illusion of Beamon.
Angel raised his hand slightly, and as the mist surged, a gray-haired mouse rolled out.
This gray-haired mouse with a tuft of golden hair on its head is exactly Behemoth's illusion.
As soon as "Behemoth" fell into the cage, Nakbi was awakened by the noise, and the originally limp "Ratcake" became stiff again.
It timidly raised its head and looked in the direction of the "movement". At this glance, it was stunned.
Looking at the familiar figure walking towards him, Nakbi's beady eyes seemed to have turned into a small puddle, and slowly began to accumulate water.
When I saw Behemoth's appearance clearly, the water overflowed, and the tears ran down freely.
Nakbi stood up, whispered in his mouth, and rushed towards Beamon.
However, what it pounced on was in vain...
Yes, Angel removed Behemoth's illusion when it pounced on him. This kind of manipulation of emotions to deceive Nakbi was enough, but it was too much.
It's better to just think of it as a dream.
Besides, their experiment is over and Nakbi has spoken.
When Nakbi pounced on Behemoth, its tick was caught by Angel.
Although Nakbi only whispered one sentence, and the words were very unclear and had an obvious milky voice, there was no doubt that it was the language of Pilusiu.
The reason why it is the language of Pilusi is because it has been exposed to Pilusi's language since it was born. Even though it cannot understand these words, it has been remembered by the subconscious sea and has become the main source of its language function.
center.
Under the stimulation of the sharp fruit, these Pilusi languages integrated by the subconscious sea automatically replaced its previous "rat language", allowing it to express its emotions and thoughts through Pilusiu language.
Angel didn't understand Pilusiu at all, but everyone else present understood Pilusiu.
Luigi: "The sentence it just said, if translated, probably means 'missing'."
As soon as Luigi gave the translation, the dog butler jumped out and said: "It does mean missing you, but there is a supplementary phrase after it, which can be translated as 'missing you'."
Luigi glanced at Butler Dog angrily: "Isn't that the same?"
Butler Dog: "Missing you and missing you are two different things. You can miss anything, but missing you is only you."
Luigi opened his mouth, unable to think of anything to say in reply.
On the other hand, Xiao Hong, who was on the side, spoke up for Luigi: "What Brother Dog said is completely wrong. The phrase 'hem, hum, chirp' he said at the beginning was a way of calling himself."
"If you want to translate..." Xiaohong tilted her head and thought carefully: "It can be translated like this:"
"——Shu Shu misses you."
Rat rat is Nakbi’s meaning of ‘I’, which means ‘I miss you’.
Xiaohong gave this new version of the translation, and Luigi and the Dog Butler looked at each other in confusion, neither of them said a word, as if neither one was convinced by the other.
At this time, Laplace gave the final decision: "Xiaohong's translation is the most complete and accurate."
Xiaohong's thoughts are closest to Nakbi's, not only because they are about the same age, but also because she has naive ideas about things and similar simple words. This is the reason why she can translate completely.
However, what even Laplace himself did not expect was that Nakbi actually called himself "Rat".
Is this really self-effacing rather than being cute?
Xiaohong's "complete translation" made everyone focus on her. Xiaohong was a little embarrassed to be stared at. At this moment, she suddenly thought of something and said: "By the way, I'm on Shushu's body."
It smelled very weird.”
Xiaohong's words successfully diverted everyone's attention.
Compared to the translation template, this is obviously more interesting.
Xiaohong's ability is very special to begin with, and in a sense, it is not inferior to that of Dog Butler.
If even Xiaohong says it smells "weird", then this smell must not be simple.
