Before the girl could finish speaking, several strange noises came from her lower abdomen.
Xia Zhi paused for a moment, then said, "You're hungry."
The girl tilted her head, looking rather cute: "Hungry?"
She didn't seem to quite understand the concept of hunger.
As a creature of the abyss, she used to not need to eat.
This girl really lacks common sense.
Xia Zhi took a small cake out of her inventory and handed it to her.
This is a small dessert that he made a few days ago for everyone to have when they get hungry while traveling.
"Here you go, eat."
"Thank you dad!"
"Don't use your hands, use a spoon, that's it, right."
"Oh!"
The girl held a small wooden spoon, carefully scooped up a spoonful of cream, and put it into her mouth.
"Woo!"
Such a sweet and wonderful taste!
Then, her clothes were ruined.
It wasn't a case of clothes ripping off.
To be precise, she became overly excited because of the delicious food she ate, and a powerful aura of poison suddenly emanated from her body, easily corroding her newly worn clothes into several small pieces.
The girl, with a spoon in her mouth, glanced down at her torn clothes and looked timidly at Xia Zhi: "Daddy, I'm sorry, I..."
For a girl who has never eaten before, it is indeed a bit unfair to let her taste master-level cooking skills right from the start.
Xia Zhi waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's broken, it's broken. It's not your fault, I didn't think of that..."
Previously, he had noticed that after she transformed, there was no longer any abyssal aura surrounding her, and he thought she should be able to control these things.
It still seems to pose a significant risk.
At least he can't just take her back like that. Otherwise, what if she accidentally rips her clothes off again during a meal and corrupts the people around her? He'd have to come back to life, which would be such a hassle.
Until she can fully control her power, it would be best to find a way to seal it away.
Xia Zhi opened his inventory and found the golden arc inside.
【Golden Hoop】
Quality: Platinum.
Type: Jewelry.
Characteristics: Suppression, conversion.
Effect: When used on a target, it can suppress any ability they possess, but not those abilities can exceed the item's quality level. As the target wears this item for longer, their affinity towards you will automatically increase.
Hidden effect: Immune to all mental spells of level 3 and below.
Xia Zhi pondered for a moment, then took it out and looked at the girl who was still happily eating cake.
"Dulin."
"Huh? Dad?"
"Here, put this on."
"it is good!"
The girl didn't ask any questions and simply took the arc ring and put it on.
It was supposed to be worn on her head, but her head was too small to fit, so she could only wear it around her neck.
But it looks really good.
The system's voice echoed in my mind.
"Bind target?"
"Yes."
"Binding successful."
Xia Zhi immediately had a strange feeling that he could control the girl in front of him at will.
He casually suppressed the power within her.
"Dulin, from now on you will be my third apprentice."
"what?"
"That's my master."
"dad?"
"Fine, call me whatever you want. After all, a teacher for a day is a father for life, so it's about the same..."
Chapter 430 The Eye of Truth (4K)
After putting on the [Golden Hoop], Dulin transformed from a moving natural disaster into a harmless young girl.
Xia Zhi spent 1 point to order a new set of casual clothes from the system.
"You haven't finished your cake yet?"
"It's delicious! I can't bear to part with it..."
"It's just a small cake; you'll be able to eat it every day from now on."
"really?"
"Really, hurry up and eat it, then put this dress on."
Okay~
The girl stuffed the remaining half of the small cake into her mouth in one bite, her cheeks puffed out, revealing an expression of utter satisfaction and happiness.
Then, she took the clothes Xia Zhi handed her and awkwardly put them on.
"I'm all dressed, Dad!"
"Ah."
The two are currently communicating in the monster language, and if he wants to take her back, he will have to help her solve this language problem.
Xia Zhi browsed through the [Shop] and found an item she had bought once before.
"【Liyue Language Basics】: Price Points 1"
"【Liyue Language Proficiency】: Price: 10 points"
When Xia Zhi first arrived in Liyue last summer, he was short of points and could only afford to buy a beginner-level language experience book.
Xia Zhi now has a lot more points, which would allow him to directly purchase more expensive and better proficiency-level language experience books, but he already has [Teyvat Language Proficiency], so this thing is currently useless to him.
But for Dulin, it was just right.
Choose to purchase.
A strange ball of light immediately appeared in my inventory.
"Dulin, come a little closer."
"Oh!"
The girl approached.
Xia Zhi reached out and gently pressed his hand on her forehead.
The ball of light merged into it.
"It might be a little uncomfortable."
"Ah."
The girl closed her eyes, her brows furrowing slightly.
Xia Zhi withdrew his hand.
After a moment, the girl opened her eyes again, looked up at Xia Zhi in front of her, and called out, "Dad."
This time, the words she spoke were in perfect, natural Liyue language.
Xia Zhi nodded and said, "That's good. From now on, you'll be my apprentice. Let's get ready to go back."
"go back?"
"Go back to Qingquan Town. The rest of your family is there now. I'll introduce you to them later. We'll be living together from now on."
"Hey……"
Upon hearing that she was going to meet other strangers, the girl's clear eyes widened, and her expression became noticeably tense.
