The Demon Butler Is Still Motivated Today

Chapter 59: In fact, the current situation is far more critical than the system describes

Views:

The dim woods merged into the night, light faintly shone through the dense branches and leaves, and the black military shoes made a squeaking sound as they stepped on the dead leaves.

Qin Qi's expression was no different from before, but his feet were moving quickly towards the distance, his figure gradually blurring in the darkness. The system followed him tremblingly, observing his situation nervously, while also connecting with Yaxiao to report in real time.

Suddenly, its old eyes blurred, and a silver-white shadow flashed before its eyes, breaking through the darkness with a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and the system shuddered instantly.

[Ah, hurry up, host! The villain has now entered an alienated state. ]

Yaxiao: !!

So fast

Without having time to think, Yaxiao used the devil experience voucher without hesitation, and immediately opened the window and jumped out.

"Uncle Four, send me the location."

[Good host!]

The system immediately sent out its own location and floated non-stop behind Qin Qi to avoid losing him.

Yaxiao stepped on the tree and pushed his feet. The leaves on the thick branches rustled slightly, and he flew into the air and landed on another big tree in the distance.

The green light spot on the system screen kept moving, getting farther and farther away from the residential area.

It was obvious that Qin Qi was consciously leaving the civilian area. He should be aware of his current situation, so he kept moving towards remote areas.

[Could it be that the group of elders in the council provoked Qin Qi, causing him to lose control? ]

The system's suspicious voice rang in my ears.

“I can only say that this is a possibility.”

Yaxiao couldn't be sure.

The villain's taboo is unknown.

Yaxiao didn't know the reason for the surge in the villain's TH value this time, but it should be related to the secrets of the Seventh Base.

But none of this matters right now; the most important thing now is to stop the villain from getting out of control.

If it is not controlled in time, the absorption rate of the demon value will be reduced for a period of time, which is really bad for the demon!

Yaxiao's gaze followed the direction of the green dot's movement and finally landed on an inconspicuous place. No matter what noise was made in the remote rescue station, almost no one would notice it. If he was lucky, there should still be spray suppressants stored inside.

This should be the villain's destination, but it is too far away and may not be reachable given the villain's current condition.

He must heal Qin Qi as soon as possible.

Yaxiao looked up at the full moon in the sky. The silvery moonlight was flowing in the air. His blue eyes seemed to flash a hint of darkness. The next second, his slender figure disappeared from the spot.

The blurry picture gradually became clear.

The drizzle wet the broken limbs on the battlefield. The smell of damp earth covered the fishy smell of blood. The rustling sound of the flapping wings of magic insects could be vaguely heard in the ears, and groups of magic insects were gnawing on the white bones.

Those bones weren't just his comrades.

Even more were ordinary people who failed to evacuate from the Seventh Base. They had no means of self-defense and could only wait to die when faced with the surging insect swarms.

Wailing and screaming of pain echoed in my ears, and rain mixed with blood dripped from my fingertips.

The black military boots were stained dark red by blood.

Qin Qi knew that he would definitely go to hell.

The illusion of the past gradually dissipated.

The watch on my wrist lit up and beeped a warning tone.

Qin Qi slowed down his movements, step by step, and the silver tail behind him swept across the ground. The moonlight shone through the branches, and the sharp scales exuded a sense of power and ominousness.

Signs of alienation are already appearing.

His temples were pounding and murderous intent was piling up in his chest, urging him to destroy everything around him.

He wanted to lock himself up in a shelter before he completely lost control.

Qin Qi's eyes darkened slightly. The rescue station, far away from the public, was not close to here. Even if he ran very fast, it was difficult to guarantee that he could remain rational when he arrived at the rescue station.

The best way at the moment is to make himself lose the ability to move before losing control, so Qin Qi stopped.

The silver tail rose up and paused in mid-air, emitting a sharp metallic cold light under the moonlight, which was chilling.

As long as his legs were pierced, he would temporarily lose the ability to move, but it would not prevent him from participating in the subsequent military academy training. Qin Qi's sanity, which was gradually eroded by murderous intent, quickly made a decision.

However, before he could do anything, the leaves were blown up by the wind, making a slight rustling sound. Qin Qi seemed to have noticed something. He raised his head and looked at the branches on the side.

A young man wearing a clown mask stood on it at some point.

Under the moonlight, the clown with an exaggerated grin inexplicably exudes a kind of holy mystery and weirdness.

"Does the Marshal need help?"

Crow Step again.

This mysterious young man has many secrets and seems to know everything. Such an existence is undoubtedly the most terrifying.

Qin Qi stared at the dangerous young man in front of him.

The blood in his body was surging, madly eating away at his sanity, constantly urging Qin Qi to destroy everything around him. Such emotions were enough to destroy a human mind. From the time he left the Elder Council to now, Qin Qi had suppressed them for too long.

The dangerous silver sword-like tail behind him hung down, moving slowly on the ground, leaving a long depression, faintly revealing the suppressed and heavy emotions of its owner.

"How to help?"

Qin Qi said calmly, suppressing the brutality in his heart and using his remaining rationality to be wary of Crow Step.

But at the same time, Qin Qi also knew that the other party had more tricks than he thought.

Yaxiao jumped down from the tree, and his scorpion braids drew an arc in the air.

“It’s very simple.”

Perhaps because he knew that time was running out, Yabu did not keep anyone in suspense and walked easily to Qin Qi.

As if unaware of Qin Qi's vigilance, the young man gently touched Qin Qi's forehead with his fair fingers, his movements smooth and flowing.

The cool touch flashed by in a flash, and Qin Qi's body tensed up, his dark eyes staring at the person in front of him in an obscure manner.

The masked young man withdrew his hand and said in a natural tone: "Okay, it's over."

There was a slight flash of doubt in Qin Qi's eyes.

it's over

What did the young man in front of me do

This thought had just arisen and had not yet taken shape, when the next second, a pain that went straight to the soul came from the heart and instantly filled the entire body. Qin Qi's consciousness became chaotic in an instant.

The huge tail swung wildly and wantonly, the surrounding trees cracked and splashed with dust.

Qin Qi slowly retreated and leaned against the giant tree, veins bulging on his forehead, and his consciousness gradually regained.

It felt as if there were cold poisonous snakes lurking in the blood, and every part of the body felt as if it was being forcibly taken apart and reassembled. The intense pain gnawed at my sanity, and the healing process only took a moment, but the pain in my body continued.

Qin Qi had been wounded countless times on the battlefield and had suffered from the aftereffects of various inhibitors, but this was the first time he had ever felt as if he wanted to cut his skin with a knife and roast it on fire.

His muscles tensed up, cold sweat broke out on his body, his brows were furrowed, his head felt like it was being pricked by needles, and he wanted to bang his head against a tree to expose his ugly cowardly appearance.

But contrary to the severe pain, Qin Qi's brain gradually became clearer, and his clenched fists slightly loosened and clenched again.

As long as he regained his sanity, it would be fine. It meant that he would no longer lose control. The pain in his body made Qin Qi feel that it was really bearable.

The sweat on Qin Qi's face kept dripping onto the ground and mixing into the soil.

Seeing Qin Qi's reaction, Yaxiao realized belatedly that if the magic power moved too quickly, it would cause great pain to the villain.

Just now, Yaxiao deliberately used magic power to circle Qin Qi's body twice. This time he did not suppress his speed like before.

Time is short and the task is heavy. Helping the villain out of the out-of-control state is the most important thing. Treating him as carefully as before will only delay the treatment time.

What's more, this time the healing was done by 'Crow Step', so Yaxiao had no scruples in healing. He didn't expect that it would cause such a big reaction from the Marshal.

"Just bear with it, it should be fine soon."

Yaxiao felt a little guilty.

If such a tough villain could be in so much pain, you can imagine how painful the healing process will be.

Yaxiao waited for a long time but didn't hear Qin Qi say anything. When he raised his eyes, he found that he seemed to have fainted from the pain.

That's a good thing.

Originally, Qin Qi couldn't fall asleep after eleven o'clock, so it was good for him to fall asleep and rest now. Yaxiao didn't wake him up, but walked in front of Qin Qi and carried him up directly.

The system looked at the young host carrying the villain on his shoulders and was silent for a moment, feeling that this scene was somewhat familiar.

However, when the host carried Qin Qi, Qin Qi's feet were dragging on the ground, but now it is not as embarrassing as before.

Yaxiao didn't know what his fourth uncle was thinking.

After he sent Qin Qi back, he went straight back to his room to sleep.

The next day, Yaxiao came to Qin Qi's room early to check on him.

Qin Qi had not woken up yet.

Yaxiao felt even more guilty as he looked at the villain lying on the bed with his eyes closed.

Normally, the villain should have woken up by this time. When he lost control, Qin Qi never woke up late, so this time it was indeed caused by his magic power flowing too fast, right

He just wanted to solve the villain's out-of-control problem as quickly as possible to prevent the other party from completely losing control and being doomed.

Who would have thought that the rapid operation of his magic power would cause a powerful villain to lie in bed as if he was sick.

There won’t be any side effects on the villain’s body, right

Yaxiao couldn't help but feel a little worried.

The man lying on the bed seemed to sense the mood of the butler beside the bed. His eyelashes trembled, and after a moment, he slowly opened his eyes and met the boy's blue eyes that showed genuine concern.

"When did you come in?"

Qin Qi held his head and sat up, rubbing his temples with his palms. His brows showed a bit of fatigue, which was not only caused by almost losing control last night.

He hasn't had a good night's sleep since arriving in Central City, and last night's loss of control was just a prelude.

I passed out due to the pain and took a nap, but my body still couldn't get a complete rest.

The young butler standing by the bed said truthfully, "I came here at seven o'clock, and it's already eight o'clock now."

"Um."

Qin Qi put down his hand, stood up, and stretched his arm to a corner beside the bed. Yaxiao helped him get a stack of new clothes. Last night's old clothes were placed on the chair.

Yaxiao took the initiative to step forward and took it, helping him put it on and button it.

Qin Qi did not refuse. He lowered his black eyes and looked at Yaxiao's slightly curly head.

Time returned to calm, until this moment, the events of last night flashed through my mind, the Council of Elders, the Seventh Base, the loss of control, and the masked youth Crowstep...

Qin Qi closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were full of calmness. He rationally analyzed everything that happened last night.

Qin Qi was more inclined to believe that the mysterious young man already knew everything, otherwise he would not have chosen to go to the Elders' Council at that time.

Thinking of how Yabu invited him to work together a few days ago, Qin Qi's eyes deepened slightly.

He won't believe the other party.

But if he could really use Crow Step to solve those things, Qin Qi would not refuse, especially after seeing Crow Step's unpredictable methods last night.

"Okay, Marshal."

Yaxiao buttoned his clothes carefully, took a step back with satisfaction, raised his head towards Qin Qi and said with a bright smile.

Qin Qi's gaze fell on Yaxiao's fair and delicate face, his blue eyes were still pure and dazzling.

The butler is a kind and ordinary person.

His duty is to protect ordinary people, and he must fulfill his mission even if he has to sacrifice everything for it.

Qin Qi suppressed the emotions in his eyes, and before he could say anything more, he met Yaxiao's hesitant blue eyes, "What's wrong?" "Marshal, how do you feel now?"

Yaxiao asked guiltily. Under Qin Qi's gaze, he made up an excuse: "You suddenly got up an hour late today, so I was worried that you were not feeling well."

"If you feel uncomfortable, you can take a rest."

The most important arrangement today is to go to the military academy. There is no specific fixed time, just get there before the afternoon.

"No, let's go to the office first."

Qin Qi didn't feel that he needed to rest. He was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something. He raised his hand and rubbed Yaxiao's hair. The soft hair passed through his fingertips, and the boy's clear blue eyes narrowed like a small animal.

He remembered that Yaxiao liked to have his head rubbed.

"Don't worry about me."

Qin Qi withdrew his hand calmly.

Yaxiao was suddenly touched on the head by the villain. His eyes were a little confused at first, but then they brightened up in an instant, and his mood inevitably soared.

"OK."

He nodded obediently, and said to the system in his mind: [Fourth Uncle, I really like villains! ]

The villain actually took the initiative to pat his head!

The system just woke up from nap mode. It wiped its non-existent saliva and was about to make a perfunctory sound when it heard the host change the subject and said regretfully:

[If I had known, I would have slowed down yesterday. ]

What slower

Hearing the system's question, Yaxiao explained his guilty conscience: [If my magic moves too fast, it will have a negative impact on the villain's body. ]

The villain was so good that Ya Xiao felt a little guilty.

The system heard this and took a look at the villain's thin and upright back. To be honest, it was difficult for it to tell that the villain had any physical problems: [Host, how is your demon value collection rate increasing? ]

Yaxiao realized something and summoned the panel, and found that the current demon value was not much different from the previous increase, that is to say, the villain's body is now the same as before and there is no major problem.

The system also sees this value.

The devil and the old man immediately put their hearts back in their stomachs.

[However, the villain almost lost control yesterday. Even if there is no big problem, he still needs to be replenished.] The system said according to its understanding of the fragile constitution of humans.

[That makes sense!]

Yaxiao thought about how the villain looked tired when he woke up this morning, and he would still be tired.

Don’t be too tired, or the speed of collecting demon value will decrease!

Qin Qi noticed that the butler behind him suddenly stopped and turned his head slightly to look over: "What's the matter?"

"Marshal, please go to the office first. I will cook for you today."

Yaxiao was thinking about going to the mall to buy some supplements that demons like to nourish Qin Qi's body.

"No need to bother."

Qin Qi is not particular about his diet on weekdays, and nutritional supplements with specific flavors are enough to support his three meals a day.

"No, the nutritional supplements in Central City don't have your favorite blueberry flavor. You've been so busy lately and your sleep quality is poor every day. Maybe it's related to the frequent consumption of nutritional supplements."

Yaxiao looked at Qin Qi sincerely.

On the surface, it seemed that the black-haired boy really put all the blame on the nutritional supplements. He had no idea that Qin Qi couldn't sleep well because he didn't sleep and went out in the middle of the night.

Seeing this, Qin Qi agreed with Yaxiao's statement.

He couldn't let anyone know the real reason for his insomnia.

"It's troublesome."

Yaxiao curled his eyes at Qin Qi, then turned and went to the kitchen. Qin Qi sat in the room, turned on his computer, clicked on someone's chat box, and after a while, he tapped his finger on the screen.

[Thank you.]

The message was sent successfully, but there was no response from the other end. Qin Qi didn't care, put away his laptop, and walked towards the office.

There were only two lieutenants, Mist and Soren, in the office.

"Marshal, you are up!"

Mist observed the marshal's mental state and found that there was nothing unusual, so he was relieved instantly.

In the morning, he saw on the computer that Yaxiao said the marshal had not woken up yet. He was really worried that there was something wrong with the marshal's health. But at the moment, it seemed that he was not seriously ill.

"Where's Yashao?"

Mist looked behind the marshal and was a little surprised not to see Yaxiao who usually followed behind the marshal.

Normally, Yaxiao would leave only after handing over the matters to him.

"He went to prepare breakfast for me."

Qin Qi did not mention this matter any further, and instead said: "Transfer the monitoring authority of this building to my optical computer."

Monitoring permissions

Mist and Soran looked at each other. Could something have happened

Soran silently opened the optical computer to make arrangements, and Mist did not ask the reason.

Although they are the Marshal's right-hand men, until now, there are still many things they don't understand, and the Marshal will not tell them.

I don't know since when, the marshal has become accustomed to handling everything alone. Even when the marshal was still a lieutenant general, he would discuss almost everything with them.

"Marshal, it's done."

Soran's voice interrupted Mist's thoughts.

Qin Qi hummed, removed the Bluetooth headset from the computer and put it on his cochlea.

He pushed the surveillance time node back to last night. Many pictures flashed on the screen and there was noisy sound in the headphones, but there was no figure or voice belonging to the young man.

Even in Qin Qi's bedroom, there was no crow step, and not even a suspicious sound could be heard.

It is obvious that Yabu should carry something to block the surveillance signal. This is not surprising. After all, Qin Qi also tampered with the surveillance when he left.

It’s really hard to figure out.

Qin Qi looked at his bedroom on surveillance camera, his eyelashes drooping slightly, but it was also good this way.

Yabu’s identity is mysterious but his strength is very powerful.

Although its purpose is unclear, it is more trustworthy than the Presbyterian Church.

Recalling last night's loss of control, Qin Qi tapped the handles of the chair with his black-gloved fingers. He shouldn't have lost control. At least after a few years, Qin Qi knew that he shouldn't have lost control after leaving the Presbyterian Church.

The faces of the five elders, either arrogant, silent or serious, flashed through his mind, and finally condensed into Lilith's acid sarcasm.

Qin Qi thought about it and suddenly said, "Take the old clothes in my bedroom and inspect them."

old clothes

When Mist heard this, he was a little surprised. Why did he check the marshal's old clothes

The marshal's clothes are made of special materials, and they will not be damaged at all even if they are in an alienated state. Is there something wrong with the material of the clothes

"OK."

Mist looked at the Marshal's calm appearance and knew that the Marshal would not give a reason, so he directly agreed and walked out with Soran.

Before I could go out, the office door had already opened and Yaxiao walked in pushing a food cart.

Seeing the two adjutants, Yaxiao subconsciously smiled at them and waved.

Soran, wearing a gas mask, nodded to the butler. However, Mist, who was usually very warm and hospitable, rarely failed to greet Yashao. His eyes fell on the breakfast on the dining car and did not move for a long time.

Under the transparent cover, the dark soup was even bubbling.

Why is this thing still bubbling even though it's not being boiled? Mister had a complicated expression, very puzzled.

I have to say that every time Yaxiao makes something, it can refresh Mist's understanding of food.

Whether it is the purple skull bread, or the mysterious soup in front of him, which he didn't know what it was but definitely couldn't be black rice porridge. After all, black rice porridge shouldn't have blue and purple leaves in it, nor would it bubble up strangely.

Will this soup give me a stomach upset if I drink it

"Mute?"

Soran next to him nudged Mist with his arm.

Mist came back to his senses instantly, smiled at Yaxiao, stepped aside to let the housekeeper come in first, and then followed his brother out of the office.

When turning around to close the door, Mist inadvertently saw through the gap that there seemed to be a hint of a barely noticeable smile in the marshal's eyes, so fast that it seemed like an illusion.

Because the marshal suddenly showed a long-lost smile, Mist was a little distracted along the way. When Soran was about to open the marshal's room, Mist happened to bump into Soran's back.

"Are you so interested in the black soup made by Yaxiao?"

After Soran opened the door, he turned to look at his brother, with a hint of teasing in his deep voice.

"What?"

Mist shook his head frantically, closed the door and complained to Soran: "I think only Marshal and Yaxiao would like that kind of thing, right?"

But it was because of Yaxiao that the marshal could smile. Mist didn't know whether the marshal smiled because he liked that weird black soup or what, but it didn't stop him from feeling very pleased about it.

The marshal had shouldered a lot of things alone and was unwilling to tell them the truth, but it was enough to have someone who could make the marshal temporarily put down those burdens and feel more relaxed.

"Yeah?"

Soran saw the Marshal's old coat on the chair, put on anti-fingerprint isolation gloves, put the clothes into the air bag, and said in a dull but neat manner.

"I thought you wanted to drink the black soup since you stared at it for so long. I was planning to shamelessly ask Yaxiao for half a bowl for you."

"do not."

Mister thought of the black soup he had just seen and felt that he was not worthy of it. He raised his gold-rimmed glasses and said with a smile, "That was the loving breakfast that Yaxiao personally made for the marshal. If I eat too much, it would be a waste and Yaxiao would be sad."

"What kind of loving breakfast?"

Soran felt that there might be something wrong with his brother. He said, "Yaxiao has a good temper. He should just be happy."

"What do you know, little brat?"

Mister snorted. He thought of the time when he saw Yaxiao buttoning the Marshal's shirt and how he said he was reluctant to leave the Marshal. Under his gold-rimmed glasses, he showed a bit of condescending pity to Soran:

"Some love is different from friendship and family love. It is unique, a love that longs to accompany you hand in hand and cook for you alone for the rest of your life. Do you understand?"

Soran: …

What's the meaning

The surveillance camera was on, the headphones were on, and Qin Qi was about to eat when he heard this sentence from the chaotic voice:…

What on earth is Mist talking about
