Tom opened his eyes, his pupils, which had long since faded from blue to ink-black, seemed to have finally discovered Lamia's flaw. A smug light flashed in his eyes, and every inch of his pupils spoke of Lamia's disastrous defeat.

Lamia was furious and wanted to push Tom away and move her lips away, but how could Tom let her escape so easily again? He suddenly exerted force on the palm of his hand that had been on Lamia's waist and locked Lamia in his arms.

At the same time, he pressed the back of her head, leaving her no chance to escape.

The fishy and sweet blood mixed in the two people's mouths, but dispersed due to the movement of muscles.

Tom hugged Lamia, and finally released the strong emotions buried in his heart in rounds of kisses. He opened his eyes, which were full of longing and possession for Lamia.

After a long time, the two separated. Lamia's lips were swollen and her eyes were full of tears, but she still frowned and slapped Tom hard on the cheek.

"Tom, you're going too far."

Lamia's tone was not very good, as if she had just been humiliated. She had never felt so powerless as she did now. Tom changed too quickly, so quickly that she had no way to deal with it.

"What? Did I push too hard?"

Tom pressed the tip of his tongue against his slapped cheek, which had begun to swell slightly. There was even blood at the corner of his mouth, which showed how hard Lamia had hit him.

But Tom didn't mean to blame her at all. Instead, he kept thinking about the contact just now. He simply loved Lamia to death. Everything about her made him intoxicated. Everything, everything, must belong to him!

Tom's eyes were full of madness, and he was about to lose control again. After realizing all this, Tom struggled to suppress the voice in his body. His deep gaze lingered on Lamia's swollen lips for a few seconds, and then he rushed out.

Lamia looked back hesitantly, looking at the door panel that was still shaking. Tom was very strange just now. He seemed to be struggling with others. His eyes were too fragmented.

[Host, please find Tom Riddle within fifteen minutes. This involves the following tasks.]

Lamia withdrew her gaze and began to doubt. Was it her illusion? Why was the system different from before?

"System, how are the Na Wei couple, whom we rescued on the last mission, doing now?"

Lamia said.

[Mr. and Mrs. Potter are doing well now, please rest assured, countdown remaining: 13 minutes]

"Oh? Aren't they the Nawei couple?"

[Countdown: 13 minutes and 30 seconds]

The system no longer responded to Lamia's questions, but instead focused on reminding Lamia of the mission time.

This is very similar to the previous system, but Lamia did not completely dispel her doubts.

The task given by the system now has nothing to do with the rescue mission. How could Lamia not see it?

But because time was urgent, she could only put her doubts aside for the time being and go find Tom first.

However, within the system space, the green light ball that dominated the command actually split out a small white light ball, and seemed to want to keep it forever.

If Lamia saw it, she would definitely praise this green ball of light. After all, it was a backup for Lamia to probe her soul into it.

Unfortunately, the green light ball didn’t know that Lamia could no longer enter. She didn’t have the authority to do so. In the past, it was the system that always pulled her in.

……

Lamia had walked through the entire mansion. It was very grand, but also too big. She walked for a long time without finding the end. During this time, she encountered many heavy doors, but without exception, they were all restricted by Tom. Lamia could not open them at all, and of course there was no chance of escaping through the door.

"System, this place is so big, I can't find him. Can you give me some specific clues?"

[Countdown: 5 minutes]

Lamia was speechless. "Are you out of energy again? Don't upgrade anymore. It won't work the same as before."

[Host, please go to the eight o'clock direction and then go into the basement]

Lamia followed the system's prompts suspiciously. She didn't expect that the system could not withstand stimulation so much. It had never been like this before. Although she was very suspicious, Lamia was more inclined to believe that it had been upgraded and gained independent consciousness. After all, this was a system, how could it be replaced?

Seeing that time was running out, Lamia rushed to the basement. The door was still locked, but the difference was that the lock was very familiar.

Lamia felt in her pocket, pulled out a metal key, tentatively inserted it into the lock, and it opened immediately.

Lamia's clothes were changed by Tom as soon as he entered the house. Although she pretended to be unconscious, she still had her own consciousness, so she remembered the key that Tom put in her pocket.

But how did Tom know she was coming?

Lamia is now full of questions. She has not forgotten that the last system issued a task as soon as it came, but now, she doesn’t even know what the task is.

"System, what tasks do I need to complete before I can go back?"

[Host, please follow the system instructions. Countdown: 2 minutes]

Lamia could only put the problem aside and walk into the basement. The further she went, the more uneasy she felt. It seemed as if her intuition was reminding her that there was a problem ahead that she could not solve.

But Lamia had no choice but to rush to Tom before the countdown ended.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the task]

"And then?" Lamia had been waiting for the system to give out rewards, but the system didn't say anything until Tom started to look back.

"Am I doing this hard labor for nothing?" Lamia rolled her eyes at the system in her heart. Is she so stupid? Why does the system think she will complete the task for it without any reward?

Lamia already had complaints just because they didn't discuss sending her into the dreamland with her, not to mention the current situation, which made her even more resentful.

[Rescue Mission: Rescue Tom Riddle, Reward: Unlimited Mission Time]

The system seemed to have sensed Lamia's mood and actually answered her again, but the content of the words made Lamia laugh out loud, of course, it was a sarcastic laugh.

Tom on the opposite side had turned around, with only his upper body exposed, and the rest of his body soaked in the bottomless pool water.

When Lamia came in, she was busy arguing with the system, and only now noticed that Tom was actually soaking in a pool of ink-black water.

"Lamia, why do you know I'm here?" Tom leaned against the edge of the pool with a smile on his face, as if he was asking a very common question, but Lamia's eyes fell on his water-stained chest. His body, which usually felt very lean, now looked like it was full of muscles.

"Why don't you speak?" Tom slowly moved his body and approached Lamia. His black hair had been wet and was now stuck to his forehead, with drops of water constantly falling down.

"I was just strolling around and happened to meet you." Lamia said calmly. She certainly knew the loopholes in her words, but that was not what Tom wanted to hear. Didn't he give her the key for this moment?

"Really? But I remember there was a lock on the door." Tom laughed. The corners of his mouth kept rising since he saw Lamia. The joy that came from the bottom of his heart was definitely not something he could suppress.

"I happen to have the key." Lamia took the key out of her pocket and waved it in the air.

She was so busy answering Tom's questions one after another that she didn't notice his increasing speed underwater. When Lamia finally noticed, Tom was already in front of her.

Lamia felt something and was about to step back, but she didn't expect Tom to be one step ahead and pull her into the pool.

The water in the pool was as cold as Lamia had imagined, and she instinctively hugged Tom's waist and chest tightly, but the water in the pool was so deep, and Tom deliberately wanted to tease her.

Lamia sank unexpectedly. She felt like the smallest ant, and Tom could crush her to death with ease. This feeling made her extremely uncomfortable, but she could not think of any solution. Nothing she did worked on Tom.

Is this the only way?

Lamia felt an inexplicable anger surge in her heart. She couldn't just go on like this, no matter who Tom was or what system he was.

Lamia suddenly opened her eyes from the water, but the scene in front of her instantly wiped out the fighting spirit she had just gathered.

Lamia suddenly felt that maybe she could avoid falling out with him?
