Book 6: Chapter 38: Before the Battle
A single orange anti-explosion lamp could not light up the large Monitoring Room. A dim human shadow was reflected on the wall.
Qin Lun rested his head on a single fist. His eyes stared blankly at the wall with unfocused eyes. His expression shifted between gloomy and bright as he was lost in thought.
Little Mute was lying on the only shabby sofa in the Monitoring Room. A large coat covered her body, and she was sleeping soundly.
“Hmm!” Little Mute’s dark eyelashes fluttered slightly. She made a soft sound and woke up. She rubbed her eyes, propped herself up from the sofa, and looked completely confused, as if she had not yet sorted out her thoughts.
“Squeak! Squeak!” Sensing that its owner was awake, the Little Squirrel climbed onto Little Mute’s ear and poked its head out from under her hair.
When Little Mute entered the Space-Time Converter, neither she nor Qin Lun noticed it. The little thing followed them in. Unexpectedly, it also survived, but its current condition was something even Qin Lun could not determine.
This little thing definitely did not count as an Apostle. Qin Lun had never heard of Shattered Starry Sky turning a non-intelligent creature into an Apostle. However, it was not a summoned creature either. The way its Law Body was converted was completely different from converting a summoned creature.
Perhaps during the entire conversion process, the Little Squirrel was considered a part of Little Mute. It was likely that the Souls of the girl and the squirrel had formed some inexplicable connection. They were probably in a symbiotic relationship now, which fit well with how the two had always relied on each other for survival.
“You’re awake. Eat something.” Qin Lun turned his head and tossed a piece of black dried meat to Little Mute.
