Chapter 559 Play-Doh

Now, the grayish-white color spread rapidly upwards on the "Gingerbread Man" like a plague. In less than two seconds, the "Gingerbread Man's" legs were eroded by this grayish-white color, and he also lost his original vitality.

Strangely, the grayish-white spread stopped abruptly at the junction of the body and legs, as if it had encountered an insurmountable barrier.

The moment its legs stopped changing, the gingerbread man's arms began to change as well.

Just like its feet, its arms turned grayish-white at an astonishing speed, as if being eroded by a mysterious force.

After all four limbs completed this bizarre transformation, the "gingerbread man's" torso followed suit, gradually being covered in grayish-white.

This change not only occurred on the surface, but also seemed to penetrate deep into its internal structure, causing the entire body to lose its original shape and outline.

Especially the legs that were the first to turn grayish-white, now completely collapsed together, like a skeleton that had been stripped of its support.

Its arms and torso also began to show similar signs of collapse. What should have been hard parts now resembled a lump of clay, and the kind that had been kneaded into a mess and had no shape at all.

Finally, apart from the gingerbread man's face, which still barely retained some of its original appearance, the rest of the body had fused into a chaotic lump of "playdough".

This lump of "playdough" looks ugly and bizarre, completely losing the original cute image of the "gingerbread man".

Meros, witnessing this scene, raised an eyebrow, clearly having anticipated what was happening before him.

Then, he pressed his fingers, which were firmly holding the ball of light, with a slight increase in pressure, seemingly trying to accelerate the collapse of the "Gingerbread Man".

"Dulu—"

Suddenly, a clear, audible bubbling sound rang out, as if right next to Lin Xiyue's ear.

Lin Xiyue looked over and discovered that the voice came from the "gingerbread man".

A bubble emerged from its tiny, sculpted mouth, and then, the facial features that had been steadily positioned on its "face" changed instantly, as if disturbed by this force.

The eyes and mouth made of lines first turned into a terrified expression (?Д?)ノ, then quickly changed into a surprised look (((;???;))), and finally all the lines, as if they had lost their support, became tangled together, forming a ball of yarn.

The ball of yarn rolled upwards along the gingerbread man's head and eventually disappeared into the sphere of light at Meros's fingertip.

Just then, several black lines appeared inside the sphere of light. As if drawn by an invisible force, they quickly merged into the sphere of light and became one with it.

Meros watched all of this, then turned to look at Lin Xiyue, his eyes full of reassurance.

Are you ready?

He asked softly in the channel.

【alright.】

Lin Xiyue replied.

The moment Lin Xiyue answered, the ball of light in Moros's hand became increasingly dazzling in the orange-red liquid.

The light, like the first ray of sunlight at dawn, gradually pierced through the darkness and illuminated everything around it.

Lin Xiyue's gaze was involuntarily drawn to the ball of light. She stared at it, as if she were under a spell, unable to look away.

Don't touch it!

However, just as Lin Xiyue's hand was about to touch the ball of light, Moros suddenly issued a stern warning in the channel.

At the same time, he clenched his fist, holding the object in his palm to block Lin Xiyue's touch.

The sound exploded in Lin Xiyue's ears like thunder, jolting her awake from her reverie.

Lin Xiyue's body trembled violently, and she quickly withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted.

But due to inertia, her fingers still gently brushed against the knuckles of Meros's clenched fist.

Although this brief contact lasted only a moment, it instantly brought Lin Xiyue's mind back to clarity.

What's wrong with me?

Lin Xiyue stared blankly at her hands, as if they weren't part of her.

Her fingers trembled slightly, as if she wanted to grasp something, but didn't know what she could grasp.

Lin Xiyue's gaze lingered on her hands, trying to understand this strange feeling.

She could feel a faint force drawing her in, as if the orb of light was beckoning her.

Because it's part of your soul, you'll be subconsciously drawn to it and want to merge with it.

Meros's voice rang out in the channel.

Lin Xiyue raised her head and looked at Molos, the confusion in her eyes still lingering. She didn't understand why her soul contained such a part, nor did she know how to integrate it.

Melos seemed to notice Lin Xiyue's confusion, and he reached out his other hand and gently grasped her shoulder.

His hands were warm, which gave Lin Xiyue a sense of inexplicable peace of mind.

Don't worry, I'll help you.

Meros said, his voice carrying a convincing power.

Then, Lin Xiyue looked closely and saw that Moros had opened his fist and was holding the ball of light in his palm.

Then, he slowly closed his five fingers and squeezed the ball of light tightly, as if he wanted to crush it.

As Meros's fingers tightened, the sphere of light began to undergo a wondrous change.

The originally round sphere was gradually squeezed and deformed in his hands, eventually taking on a peculiar shape, somewhat resembling a small and exquisite long conch.

At the same time, the gingerbread man remnants, which had been completely turned into "playdough," and the small paper package, which had been well protected, also changed shape along with the deformation of the light sphere.

They were no longer in their original form, but had split into two clumps, like discarded draft paper.

[Hey Mo, can I have that thing? You mean that thing that looks like putty? (p≧w≦q)]

The system suddenly interrupted, clearly having noticed the "playdough" in Meros's hand and realizing it was no longer of any use to him, so it wanted it.

After all, if it could actually get the soul of some little thing into it, wouldn't it be able to raise that little thing?

【Row. 】

Upon hearing this, Meros hesitated for a moment, but ultimately spoke.

He found the "playdough" useless and agreed to the system's idea.

After agreeing with the system's idea, Melos didn't look at the "clay" and the small paper packet that had been crumpled into a ball again, and casually threw them into the solution.

After receiving Meros's permission, the system became unusually excited.
