The flames crackled as they burned.
However, the burning did not last long. The flames of darkness and light seemed to gradually cool, and the cooling flames slowly solidified before Su Ping's eyes.
Like the ten-thousand-year-old ice eternally frozen within the Extreme South Glacier, they encased Little Crow's body, holding it motionless.
Su Ping hurriedly looked toward the Life Instrument monitoring equipment beside him. Only after seeing that Little Crow's vital signs on the instrument had not been affected did he let out a long sigh of relief.
But soon, Su Ping noticed that although there was nothing wrong with the vital signs, the energy displayed on the instrument was fluctuating wildly in an extremely unusual pattern.
The numbers representing the energy readings were changing rapidly. Occasionally, in a brief flash, they even plunged below zero.
Negative energy readings?
If Little Crow's condition had not indeed been so unusual, Su Ping would even have had reason to suspect that this thing was broken.
However, at that moment, the peculiarities of Little Crow's body began to manifest once more.
