I woke up to find myself transmigrated into a disabled child.

Chapter 243 Mutant Black Shadow

The cave was rather dark inside, and it took Lezhi a while to adjust before she could see the situation inside clearly.

Dozens of birds of all sizes were scattered around, some sitting and some lying down. Because the cave was spacious enough, even though the birds were huge, they did not feel cramped.

Judging from their appearance, Lezhi could easily tell that these birds were not of the same species, but their behavior was very consistent, as if they had been specifically instructed to do so. This was evident in the fact that the cave, which had occasionally emitted painful cries, instantly fell silent after seeing Lezhi enter.

Most birds and beasts have black eyes; at least, none of the birds and beasts that Lezhi has seen so far are exceptions. Before today, if someone had asked Lezhi what he thought of black eyes, he probably would have blurted out that they were beautiful. From today onwards, he would have to add that it's a little creepy when someone stares at you like that.

He was being stared at intently by a dozen pairs of dark, bright eyes, and even Lezhi, who was generally accepting of birds and beasts, felt a chill run down his spine.

After thinking for a moment, she felt she should say something to ease the tension. Lezhi blinked, looked around, and finally simply raised a hand in a greeting gesture, saying a standard "Hi~".

The birds and beasts did not understand the meaning behind this strange behavior, but that did not prevent them from keenly perceiving the goodwill expressed by Lezhi.

Humans have their own unique aura, and animals are very good at capturing that aura.

In the eyes of birds and beasts, Lezhi's aura is a combination of strength and gentleness, yet it is not sharp or aggressive, and it naturally makes them want to get close to it.

In other words, as long as Lezhi is willing to open his heart and boldly approach birds and beasts, he will find that all birds and beasts have an astonishingly high initial level of goodwill towards him.

However, it's not too late to know now. Lezhi, who is very good at reading emotions from furry eyes, could clearly feel that after he greeted them in a lighthearted manner, the birds and beasts, after a moment of stunned silence, showed a clear increase in gentleness and curiosity in their dark eyes.

This is a good start.

"I'm here to treat you at the request of your companions. Please relax, I won't hurt you..." Yuezhi said with a smile as he walked toward the nearest bird or beast.

From the moment he entered the cave, the power within his body began to stir. Lezhi, who had already merged with the small tree between his eyebrows, understood that this was his instinctive perception of the shadowy aura, and his body's memory was reminding him.

Without further ado, he prepared to start working immediately. Based on the number of patients he had seen so far, if he worked fast enough, he might be able to make it in time for dinner.

"Hmph, quite a few, let me see where you're all hiding..."

Although he knew perfectly well that the birds and beasts couldn't understand him, Lezhi kept talking.

Spoken language has its own power. In addition to venting emotions, spoken words can also give the speaker more confidence, and the receiver can also feel some of the speaker's emotions.

Moreover, Lezhi is actually a silent chatterbox. However, his thoughts usually jump around too fast and are very disjointed. Often, before he can reach a conclusion about one idea, the next idea will have already popped up.

Therefore, when facing outsiders, Lezhi always thinks before speaking to avoid saying anything inaccurate or causing others to misunderstand.

But now, all around him are these birds and beasts, and they can't understand what he's saying. He's mainly entertaining himself. When he's happy, he doesn't need to think about anything else. He just says whatever comes to mind, vividly demonstrating what it means to let yourself go.

"Wow, you have such obvious redness under your eyes, it's like you have built-in eyeshadow! You look so beautiful! Let me see if you're feeling unwell, sweetie..."

The first bird-beast feathered cat chosen by Lezhi was quite beautiful, with a main body of green and black, but a bright red dot suddenly appeared at the bottom of its eyeball, which immediately attracted Lezhi's attention.

He vaguely remembered catching a glimpse of this bird's kind in the flock of birds and beasts just now; the red in their eyes was very striking, so it must have been its companion.

The first lucky one chosen has no idea what it will face next, and it has no choice.

It was exhausted from fighting off the shadowy invasion, and its ability to hold on until now was a testament to its strong willpower.

Seeing Lezhi approach, the bird didn't even have the strength to greet him. It lay prone on the ground in a sideways position, its somewhat cloudy eyes fixed on Lezhi's movements.

The bird's abundant feathers were thick and dense, completely obscuring the patterns representing the spreading shadows. Therefore, Lezhi could only gather energy in his palm and use touch instead of sight to travel around the bird's body, perceiving the shadows in this way.

The shadow is easiest to remove in its early stages of invasion because its entanglement with the host is not yet so deep; it is basically still on the surface, just like the fur ball was back then.

However, if the invaded host cannot get rid of the shadow in time, after a period of painful treatment, the shadow will invade from the surface to the inside of the body and reside in the internal organs. At this time, the surface symptoms will disappear temporarily, but this is only temporary.

The shadow will fight with the host for ownership of every part of his body, and its invasion is everywhere. When the invasion reaches a certain level, the shadow will reappear on the skin, which are those eerie black patterns.

Because the birds and beasts were covered in thick feathers, their patterns were obscured and could not be identified with the naked eye. Moreover, unlike the tree spirits, they did not have the sap of the mother tree to help suppress the patterns. After sensing around, Lezhi was surprised to find that this bird and beast had marks all over its body that had been invaded by the shadows.

"Strange, how could this be? Oh well, never mind, let's get started." Questions kept coming one after another, but fortunately, even if Lezhi didn't know the answers, it didn't affect his ability to solve the problems.

After returning from his birthplace, Lezhi focused all his attention on his newly grown wings. It seemed like the last time he fought the shadowy figure. When he attacked again, his abundant energy reserves and precise energy release surprised even Lezhi himself, who was amazed by his own ease in handling the situation as he was driven by instinct.

He simply released a little power as a trigger, based on his previous experience, but the effect was like a whale swallowing the sea. The black shadow was instantly shattered by the energy that Le Zhi casually released.

"Eh..." "Chirp chirp~"

The body parts invaded by the shadows are aware of the situation, and only the patient knows this best. How painful it is to be eaten away while fully conscious. When the pain becomes a habit, the animals are suddenly unaccustomed to it when it suddenly disappears.

The body, which had been lying prone, twitched unnaturally a few times as if it had been electrocuted. The tips of the feathers that were drooping towards the ground were nourished by the power and were no longer powerless. Instead, they gradually rose up with spirit, one feather, two feathers... until the entire wing became powerful.

The only leg not covered in feathers, the heel and claws, kicked powerfully a few times, the dull, lifeless armor plates were pushed open by the newly grown plates, and the scales on the claws seemed to become more lustrous.

As the energy Lezhi sent into its body surged forward, the areas previously invaded by the shadows were repaired one by one, and its condition improved even more than before.

Sensing the return of its long-lost strength, a sharp light flashed in the bird's eyes. Finally, with a burst of strength, it stood up again without the help of its companions, and its two wings gradually progressed from small trembling to powerful flapping.

The flapping of his wings created air currents, causing the strands of hair hanging by his ears to flutter and form the same arc as the upturned corners of his mouth.
