Always Ending Up as an Animal Cub

The news has not been spread yet. Except for the people in dormitory 4-5 and the ghoul nun, no one knows that the priest is dead.

Yu Tong used the nun's mouth to trick the other children into staying in the dormitory for another day.
They need to use the free time of this day to study how they should manage the orphanage in the future.
In addition, they just ate the bodies of the Marsh God and the priest last night. After a night of digestion, the strength of several people has been greatly improved, and they need to be familiar with their own situation.

Chen Xi and Apple Sauce only ate the Marsh God, and did not touch the flesh and blood of the priest, so the improvement in strength was not obvious.
Apple Sauce gained the ability to discern the truth. She can tell whether a person is lying with her naked eyes, but she does not have the strong offensiveness of the Marsh God.
Chen Xi has an extra threading skill than her, which can release black lines out of thin air to cause harm to people.

After discovering that she had an extra strange ability, the little girl immediately hugged the vine that was swinging on the bed rails.
"Fairy Godmother, am I your favorite child?"
The vine shook up and down, as if nodding.

"Great! Am I your little princess?"
"I know! Am I the most beautiful woman in the world?"
The vine was busy working out, nodding absentmindedly.

Apple sauce's face instantly fell, and she cried out, "You lied to me!"
Chen Xi was catching up on his sleep, and was awakened by the sound of a girl pretending to cry. He drowsily opened the bed curtain and said vaguely: "Apple sauce is still young, not a woman, you are the most beautiful little girl in the world."
Apple sauce just wanted to play the plot in Snow White, and seeing that someone was willing to cooperate with her, she immediately stopped crying and smiled sweetly.

Chen Xi casually glanced at the time and saw that it was already 10 o'clock, so he simply got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.
When he came out of the shower comfortably, he heard the sun god chicken chatting with the two little girls, asking why they were so perfunctory about their names.
Lily held her hands, "Lily's name is not perfunctory, my full name is Smith Edward Lily Antonio."

Apple sauce lowered her head shyly, "I was sold to the orphanage by my parents. In addition to me, there are two brothers and sisters. The purpose of our birth is to exchange gold coins for the family, so no one gave us names."
As soon as she said this, the dormitory that was bustling just now suddenly became dead silent.
The teddy bear chasing the vines stopped and turned to look over.
Lily translated: "The little bear warrior asked, why did your parents sell their children for money? Are they too hungry? Why don't they catch others to eat?"

Yu Tong and Chen Xi looked at the teddy bear at the same time. It was saying something serious.
Apple sauce waved his hands, "No, no, although they are my parents, I am not their child."
"Were you abducted?"

"I am a biological child. There are many children like me who are biologically born but not considered children."
Apple sauce thought about it seriously for a while, "It seems to be because the newspaper said that the economy of the empire is... very bad?"
Yu Tong reminded from the side, "The Great Depression."

"Oh, yes, the Great Depression! Many people can't find jobs, and the Imperial Steel Plant is forcibly recruiting young and middle-aged labor. I heard from my mother that before the war, my family The family is very rich and can afford maids. After the war, our area became very poor. "
"It just so happens that the Empire has a policy that if you sell children aged 5-10 to the government, you can exchange them for a gold coin. Each household can sell as many as they want, no limit on the number of times."
Apple sauce fiddled with her fingers, "We have sold 7 children in total, and my family is rich again. The neighbor next door has many women, so they can have more children, and they have sold 15 children. We keep giving birth and selling, and every family can live a good life."

The child's innocent words made the spines of the people present feel cold.
Lily hugged the teddy bear and muttered softly, "The orc tribe is still good. We never sell children and don't have to keep giving birth to babies."
Yu Tong finally understood why most of the children in the orphanage were named after various foods and objects.

In the minds of their parents, they are not children but commodities. They are raised to the age of five and then can't wait to sell them for money.
Before they were sent to the orphanage, their parents kept them at home for fear that they would be stolen by other families and sold for money.
This not only reduced the risk of "losing money", but also helped the relatives who were pregnant again with housework.

Sent to the trading point by grandparents, it was the first time that Applesauce had left the house since she was born.
The nun who was responsible for receiving this group of children who were sent to this orphanage was eating apple pie at the time.
So she was called Applesauce. Her upper bunk was apple mud, the bunk opposite was apple pie, and the other person was apple icing.

There was one boy left, and the nun couldn't think of anything else related to apple pie.
It happened that she was using a blue feather pen at the time, so she named the boy Blue Ink.
Applesauce didn't have any opinion on her name. Her parents called her Gold Coin No. 8.

The dormitory was quiet. Lily and Chenxi, who had lived in the love of their parents since childhood, wanted to comfort their friends, but they didn't know what to say.
Lily wiped her tears and buried her face in the arms of the little bear warrior.
The teddy bear gestured with his hands, as if to say, 'The little bear can be your mother in the future. '

Perhaps because he had never had family affection, and because he was locked up in the house for a long time, he didn't know what family affection should be like.
Apple sauce didn't feel sorry for herself. She thought the name of apple sauce was cuter than gold coin No. 8.
Especially the ending sound of sauce, which sounded super sweet.

Her first favorite name was Apple Frosting. Unfortunately, her roommate died suddenly, and she didn't have the chance to change her name with her.
The little bear raised his hand to be a mother. The two girls thought it was a family role-playing game and happily played the role of father and child.
————

Seeing that the children were having fun, Yu Tong put away his mood and his soul entered the system space.
As usual, the little light ball handed over a cup of milk with ingredients.
Yu Tong raised his head and drank it all, put down the cup and asked casually: 'Do I have to drink it every day? ’

[Yes, this is a good thing, it is very good for your body. ]
‘Who told you that? ’
[My boss sent it to me, he said it is good. How can you, my dear brother, believe the capitalists’ one-sided words? I went to ask my good buddy, he helped me check it, and said it is safe to eat, it has great benefits. ]

This is not the first time that Yu Tong has heard him mention his buddy. He asked curiously: ‘Your buddy seems to be very powerful, what does he do? ’
[Of course he is powerful, he is the president’s old man, how awesome is he! ]
[The former combat team leader and the wife of the former president are still good friends with him! The two have such a good relationship that they can wear the same pants! ]

Yu Tong:?
[Isn’t it awesome, my dear brother, I have embraced the president’s old man! We met when we were CP, he hit it off at first sight, saying that my shameless gangster look is quite similar to his style in the past. 】
‘……’

After the system boasted, it pulled out the background data.
After eating the Marsh God and the priest, Yu Tong's skill item effects have increased exponentially, the effective time has been extended, and the cooling time has been shortened.
Some items have additional attributes.

Yu Tong just glanced at it and focused on the bottom few lines.
That was his new skill.
[Flame Chicken (Upgraded Version of Fighting Fire Chicken): The chicken can catch fire by flapping its wings, which is a flame that ordinary water magic cannot extinguish. 】

[Repeated Death (Upgraded Version of Pretending to Die Chicken): As long as someone burns the corpse next to it, the chicken can extend its life indefinitely and regenerate to full status. 】
In addition, it is the spiritual skill Eye of Truth obtained by absorbing the power of the Marsh God. And the defensive skill 'Unbreakable Chicken Wings' obtained from the priest
The Eye of Truth is a question-and-answer form to see if a person is lying. If the other party lies, they will immediately have the illusion of being burned by fire, which lasts for 10 seconds.

Unbreakable chicken wings, after using the skill, Yu Tong's wings will enter an invincible state for 50 seconds. People covered by his wings will not receive any harm.
This time the harvest is great, and Yu # Nоvеlight # Tong is very satisfied.
Before he had time to study his new skills, the two children below suddenly started fighting.

Apple sauce, who played the father in the pretend house game, was whipping the teddy bear who played the mother with a slipper.
"Useless woman, you can't even give birth to a child! Look at the next door, she gave birth to twins in one breath, and you can't give birth to one in two years! If you continue like this, you will become a streetwalker!"
The little bear warrior was not hurt, but was scolded. It stood there and was beaten, tilting its bear head in confusion.

Lily chased Apple sauce from behind, shouting "Don't hit my bear!"
The fairy godmother obviously had never lived in the human world. It didn't see what was wrong and ran around excitedly with the children.
Yu Tong heard the sound of fighting, and he couldn't help but sigh.

The environment of this world seems to be no different from his hometown.
The same defeat, the same turbidity.
The same self-destruction.

Chen Xi climbed to the upper bunk with a notebook and handed the future development plan of the orphanage that he had just finished to the little yellow chicken who was in a daze.
He was young and inexperienced. In the first stage, he almost forced the template given by his father to the orphanage.
Governing a mature territory and managing an orphanage that was in need of reconstruction were completely different things.

Yu Tong pulled the system over and helped Xiao Chenge revise the plan.
The deviation value increased to 50 points. Chen Xi's personality was very different from the original text, and he was no longer as cold and ruthless as when the two first met.
He felt that the children in the orphanage were very pitiful and wanted to change the status quo so that everyone could live a stable life.

Yu Tong was the first to reject his idea.
All the children who survived till now are experienced.
Although Lily and Apple Sauce look silly, they are actually quite cunning.

Lily and Teddy Bear realized very early that they had to find an ally to survive in the orphanage.
They did not look for other children with gods, but chose Chen Xi to cooperate with.
It was nothing more than that he had just obtained the god and did not know much about this aspect. The chicken was still a cub and would not be particularly strong.

If Chen Xi had been stronger at that time, they would have felt dangerous. The seemingly strong Teddy Bear would have eliminated this powerful competitor before he grew up.
Chen Xi knew this, and after killing the little mushroom, he cried for the Teddy Bear.
The little bear warrior mistakenly thought that he was a kind-hearted silly child, and thought that even if they really fought in the future, this little saint would not have the heart to attack Lily.

So when they escaped at night, it would take the initiative to run back to help the little yellow chicken trapped in the orphanage.
Timid and crybaby Applesauce, the little abacus in her heart was also clacking.
She knew that she was excluded and needed to find someone to face Yekos with her.

At that time, the children at the scene were divided into two small groups, one belonging to Yekos and the other to the Brave Alliance.
Yekos targeted her, and the Brave Alliance had eaten children in the last food shortage period.
The new food shortage period is about to begin. When the Brave Alliance eats up all the food reserves, the old members will attack the weak children and the new members.

Yu Tong is not sure whether it was Applesauce herself who thought of forming an alliance with Chenxi Lily, who was also excluded, or whether it was the Fairy Godmother who gave her the idea behind the scenes.
When facing the priest last night, she was able to quickly recognize the situation and decisively stand on Chenxi's side.
This is enough to show that every seemingly rash decision she made was actually well thought out.
The only one who is truly heartless in this room is probably the system.

Yu Tong modified the plan step by step, asking Chen Xi not to improve the children's lives immediately and to continue to maintain the original model of the orphanage.
Temporarily do not expose the news that the priest is dead, and rely on deception and violent suppression to forcibly control the children in the orphanage.
The system looked around and couldn't help but hissed, [Xiao Yu, isn't it not good for us to treat children like this? ]

Yu Tong explained while modifying it, 'The children here are not as simple as you think. The children who can survive to this day are all smart and cruel. Don't look at Lily who is usually lively and cute like a little angel. When she kills other children, she won't even blink. '
'If they find out that the priest is dead and the orphanage is taken over by a child of the same age, the troublemakers hidden among the children will never listen to Chen Xi's management. Chen Xi behaves kind and gentle, but in their eyes, he is cowardly and bullied. ’
Yu Tong poked the system’s head with the tip of a pen, ‘Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. Chen Xi must be tough and ruthless, so that those children understand that the consequences of resisting him and resisting the priest are the same, and they will be honest. ’

‘I don’t plan to let Chen Xi show up for the time being. I just checked, and I have all the props for the beauty you want. The effective time has been extended to 1 hour, and the cooling time has been shortened to 1 hour, which is enough for me to show my presence every day. ’
Looking at the words Yu Tong wrote in the notebook, the system belatedly glared, [You want to use props to pretend to be Chen Xi’s father, and rely on the cooperation of the nuns to become the new priest of the orphanage? ]
The latest novel will be first published on the 69th book bar!

‘Yes, by then, Chen Xi will be a relative of the new priest, and his status among the children will be much higher, and his words will be more authoritative. ’
[But his father is dead...]
‘The children don’t know about this. We killed all the nobles who killed his father. The residents of the town don’t know about the nobles either. They only know that a white-haired noble named Chen was killed. ’

‘The news has not spread. Now I say he is alive, and he is alive. ’
The system read the revised plan from beginning to end and smacked its lips with admiration.
[Xiao Yu, did you like to eat cold chicken hearts when you were a child? ]

‘My mynah, my family was so poor that we could only eat insects. Where can I get such good things? ’
[I am not praising you for your cunning and unromantic nature. I hate you for being like a piece of wood. ]
————

The system seemed to have something on its mind and stopped chatting with its arms folded.
Yu Tong’s soul emerged from the space and prepared to dictate the plan to Chen Xi, asking him to revise it accordingly.
The little villain poked his head out of the bed curtain and watched the two girls fight.

Lily got angry and grabbed Applesauce's braid, telling her not to hit her mother.
Applesauce stiffened her neck and said that Lily wanted to play house. She was playing her father and the father of the children of the neighbors on both sides very seriously.
She didn't think she did anything wrong, and she didn't use any force when she hit the teddy bear just now.

Yu Tong watched for a while, and suddenly the boy's childish voice sounded in his ears.
"Sun God, I still prefer the territory governed by my parents, where this kind of thing has never happened."
Yu Tong poured a basin of cold water, "It's hard to say what the situation is over there now."

Chen Xi pursed her lips, and a trace of sadness appeared in her eyes.
"My mother never calls herself the lady of the lord, nor does she let others call her that. She thinks she is equal to my father, and is also a lord."
"My father is a male lord, and she is a female lord. They manage this land together. If my parents saw their territory become like Apple Sauce's hometown, how sad they would be."

Yu Tong got into the boy's palm and rested her head on his fingertips. "Let's not think about the past, Chen Xi, now you have your own territory. You must protect it and don't let it become the second hometown of Apple Sauce."
"You must be a good priest and a good lord, just like your parents."
Chen Xi was silent for a long time, and slowly nodded.

The system, which was thinking about something in the space, was interrupted by a prompt sound.
Clicking on the background, two messages popped up automatically.
[Deviation value detected increased by 15 points, the current deviation value of Chen Xi's personality is: 65/100]

[Deviation value detected increased by 3 points, the current deviation value of Yu Tong's personality is: 28/100]
The system didn't care about Chen Xi's deviation value at all, and all its attention was on Yu Tong's data.
While changing the villain, Xiao Yu's deviation value would occasionally increase a little secretly.

It couldn't figure out what was going on. It clearly remembered that the work guide said that only villains in the world of novels would have personality deviations...
Wait.
A thought suddenly flashed through the system's mind.

Its host is also a character in the novel? And the villain in the book?
The system suddenly recalled a help post it saw in the forum a long time ago.
Another system posted that it took its host to bravely enter a future science fiction copy. The mission required them to influence the villains and stop the two big bosses from destroying the world.

Its host died within a few days of entering.
He was caught and imprisoned by one of the bosses, and was almost tortured crazy.
It took the host to escape, and when it returned to the company to inquire, it found that it was not just this pair of unlucky people who died in that copy.

It is said that the boss who imprisoned its host has a particularly perverted skill.
He can stab a person 20 times in a row, and each stab is not fatal. Its host was stabbed more than 40 times in a row, and every night he dreamed that he had turned into a hornet's nest.
The more the system thinks about it, the more familiar it feels.

It stuck its head out, [Hey! Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu! I remember in the last world, you told me that you had a unique skill, what was it? ]
Yu Tong was eating, and said casually: "Stab someone 20 times, and each stab is not fatal. '
[Fuck...]

'? ’
————
The water drop warrior who had been missing for a whole day finally returned to the dormitory in the evening.

It also developed the bullying bag in dormitory 4-1 into its new believer.
The girl had just assassinated the two remaining boys in dormitory 4-1 with the help of the water drop warrior.
She took off the minced meat hanging on her head and lowered her head shyly with a red face.

"Hello, my name is Red Gloves."
Yu Tong couldn't help asking: "When the nun received you, was she wearing red gloves?"
"No, she had just killed someone and her hands were covered in blood. My friend is called Little Blood Drop, my lower bunk is Little Internal Organs, and the bunk opposite is Little Skeleton. It was my turn and I became Red Gloves."

Yu Tong:...
It happened that there was an empty bed in the dormitory, so Red Gloves stayed there.
She borrowed a paintbrush and stickers from Apple Sauce and decorated the small bottle of the water drop warrior carefully.

The water flowed back and forth on the dry paper, wetting the paper and outlining a boy's head.
The water drop warrior lay beside the paper, quietly staring at the boy's head for a long time, as if missing the believer who had died.
The red gloves leaned over and whispered to comfort it.

They were not really separated by life and death. There is hell in this world, and the boy's soul went there.
For people, the dead just went on a long journey. Although they can't contact each other, there will be a day of reunion.
The water flowed on the girl's fingertips, and the water drop warrior got into the freshly baked bottle and took the initiative to screw the bottle cap on himself.

It has its believers again.
Now the aura of Yu Tong and the little bear warrior is enough to deter most monsters.
In the evening, the nun came to find Chen Xi, took him to the confessional, and asked him what plans he had next.

Chen Xi was silent for a long time, and asked hesitantly: "Where is Sister Ai?"
The nun pulled out Sister Ai who had been knocked unconscious from the fireplace in the confessional.
Chen Xi's eyes suddenly became fierce, "I have discussed the specific arrangements with the Sun God. I will go to do other things first. You can ask the Sun God."

He rolled up his sleeves and pulled out a dagger, stabbing Sister Ai's body several times.
The hairy Sister Ai was quickly awakened by the pain, and looked at the boy in front of her with horror.
Chen Xi stabbed her in the face with a knife, and his childish voice was full of strong hatred, "It was you who instigated those children to scold my mother! You called her a fox, and said that my father was weak and could only be sent to the bed for people to play with. You said that I was the same as him and would be played to death sooner or later!"

"You slandered my parents and insulted my family. I remember all this!"
He cut off the tongue of the ghoul and pierced her lips with a long nail. He lit a match and pressed it hard on her eyeball.
The screams echoed in the confessional, frightening the other nun so much that she shuddered and lowered her head even lower.

I found that even if the deviation value increased, Xiao Chenxi's revenge mentality was still as strong as Brother Chen in my memory. Yu Tong felt relieved and turned to look at the nun in front of him.
"This morning I asked you to summarize the monsters that might appear tomorrow. How did you do?"
The nun took out a notebook, which contained information they had sorted out by looking through the priest's notes and the books in the orphanage.

Yu Tong glanced through it and didn't see any problems.
He closed the notebook and asked suspiciously: "So how did the priest know in advance what monsters would appear and when they would be active in the orphanage?"
The empire must have thought about this question when it established the God Training Center.

They want to cultivate gods and believers, not send children here to open a buffet for monsters.
As the manager of the God Training Center arranged by the empire, the priest must have other more convenient and accurate methods.
The nun racked her brains but couldn't figure it out. Sister Ai, who was standing next to her, raised her hand tremblingly.

"I know how it was done, and I can tell you. But you have to swear that after I tell you the information, neither you nor your gods can hurt me, and you have to send me out of the orphanage!"
Yu Tong flew to Chen Xi's shoulder, pretended to think for a few seconds, and swore an oath with the little villain.
This kind of oath made with magic does have a certain restraining effect in this world. Violating the oath will result in severe punishment.

After they swore, Sister Ai breathed a sigh of relief, "The book that the priest often took in theology class is actually a prophecy book specially made by the imperial royal magicians. Although it can't predict anything else, it can show the monsters that will appear every day in this nurturing place in advance in the book."
"The manager of the nurturing place needs to collect information about monsters regularly and fill them in, so that the prophecy book will always be effective."
Chen Xi thought, "So every time a child finds the god, he will ask Yekos to interrogate him?"

Sister Ai nodded, "Yes, relying on the lie detection ability of the wetland god, we can collect information about monsters faster. I told you everything I know, you should fulfill your oath and let me leave here."
Chen Xi turned around and took off a small satchel from the little yellow chicken. Shaking it on the ground, a teddy bear holding a steel knife and a little girl riding on its back appeared.
Looking at Sister Ai with a horrified face, Yu Tong slowly narrowed his eyes.

"We did say we wouldn't hurt you, but that oath didn't include the little bear."
Amid Lily's weird screams, the little bear warrior rushed over with a steel knife in hand.
