"Ape-Lip Bloom": You can make a jagged, crimson mouth bloom on your body. This gaping maw can not only emit soul-stirring songs that erode others' will, causing targets within a specific range to fall into a dazed trance, letting down their guard and approaching the sound source.
It can also, when you decide to attack, reveal dense fangs and a bottomless throat, launching a swift bite at targets within close proximity.
Ye Ningfu clicked her tongue slightly.
She had successfully plundered Smile Rose's core ability, "Ape-Lip Bloom," and was now eager to try it.
Ye Ningfu concentrated, her thoughts stirring, targeting her own small, delicate lips.
Rip—
A barely perceptible soft sound.
Ye Ningfu's originally small mouth suddenly stretched wide open to both sides!
Instantly, a crimson giant mouth covered with dense, gleaming, bone-white jagged teeth replaced her original small lip shape!
This hideous mouth almost occupied the lower half of her face.
Inside was a bottomless, pitch-black throat, and a scent mixing blood and a strange sweetness wafted out.
"Hmm..." Ye Ningfu tried to make a sound with this new mouth—
"I~ am~ Ye~ Ning~fu~"
A song similar to Smile Rose's rang out, but... with a few of Ye Ningfu's characteristics added.
No... why is it still this dead sound?!
Ye Ningfu pressed her hand to her forehead in frustration, deactivating the "Ape-Lip Bloom" ability.
But just as her hand touched her forehead, a thought suddenly struck her.
The ability description didn't say that this gaping maw could only bloom on the lips, did it?
She curiously directed her thoughts to her forehead.
Puff!
Without warning, a crimson gap tore open in the center of her forehead!
Indeed!
After all, Ye Ningfu's small face was merely a mimicked form, with no substantive organs, so "Ape-Lip Bloom" could bloom anywhere on her body, but it seemed only one ape-lip could exist at a time.
It's hard to say if this restriction is good or bad...
However, if there were no restrictions, Ye Ningfu would be covered in "mouths," and that sight would be truly mentally polluting...
Thanks to Dong Shi's Imitation's sharing, Beauty Flower Doll also unlocked this ability.
Ye Ningfu immediately commanded her to try it out excitedly.
Beauty Flower Doll nodded slightly.
A crimson ape-lip, covered with fine teeth, silently split open on the inner side of her arm, which was covered in a warm, woody layer.
Immediately after, this crimson gap alternately bloomed on her shoulder blade, flat abdomen, and calves!
Imagine, this gentle and enchanting Rose Beauty, who looks like a work of art when standing still, could have any part of her body instantly split open into a terrifying, drooling, fanged maw when her enemies are caught off guard!
This is simply the enemy's nightmare!
"That's great!" Ye Ningfu's leaves happily swayed as she watched.
The two of them finally had decent offensive capabilities.
Ye Ningfu's previous abilities were mostly supportive.
This also meant that when she faced her compatriots alone, she could only take a beating.
Now, they had truly made up for their shortcoming of lacking offensive means.
Ye Ningfu stared at Beauty Flower Doll, then suddenly seemed to remember something and quickly added the ability points gained from infecting Smile Rose to "Jade Face Flower Appearance."
This was the real highlight!
A warm, strange energy instantly swept through her body, and her control over her own structure soared to a new realm.
Ye Ningfu guided this power and began to actively reshape her form.
The small flower in the flowerpot rapidly grew taller and continuously stretched.
The woody stems and vines skillfully intertwined and wove together, gradually outlining a slender silhouette close to a human girl, finally stabilizing at about 1.4 meters tall, with the unripe, youthful feeling of an adolescent.
Initially, Ye Ningfu's skin was completely crimson, but she wasn't very satisfied, so she slowly changed it to a warm white with a warm, jade-like luster, faintly revealing flowing, pale green fluorescent veins beneath, like blood vessels.
The petals retracted inward, and a stunningly beautiful girl's face gradually emerged.
Her eyebrows and eyes were delicate, her nose bridge was elegant, and her lips were alluring, but upon closer inspection, the inhumanity was strong—
Her eyes were two slowly rotating dark red rose shapes, her long hair woven from crimson vines cascaded smoothly, and her ear tips were adorned with lace-like soft thorns, making her seem like an elf frolicking in the forest from myths.
The simulated girl's body was soon covered by a layer of white petal tissue, like a naturally formed sheer white dress, with her skin faintly visible beneath the thin skirt, gleaming with a moist luster. Purity and desire intertwined, giving endless room for imagination.
After all, for euphoria rose, mimicry itself is a weapon to attract prey, so the more alluring it looks, the better.
Ye Ningfu excitedly went to the full-length mirror, looking at her new image.
She then raised her hands, looking at them covered with radiant warm white skin and sharp dark red nails, and then touched her smooth and delicate cheeks. The two dark red roses in her eyes excitedly accelerated their rotation: "Billie! Billie! Come and see!"
The words that blurted out made her freeze, followed by even greater surprise!
Perhaps because more complete vocal organs had grown, she could speak!
Clear and fluent, no longer just repeating "I am Ye Ningfu"!
Now, there was only one mute left among the witches!
Goluthos: "..."
"Wow! Ye Ningfu!" Billie's voice was filled with exclamation. She held a pair of old-fashioned Soviet roller skates that looked quite old in her hands and swept over like a gust of wind, observing the refreshed Ye Ningfu and sincerely praising her:
"Oh my goodness! You're so beautiful! That tiny waist! Those legs! That face! Absolutely stunning!"
[Ye Ningfu's Affection for Billie +5]
[Billie's Affection for Ye Ningfu +4]
"Hehe..." Ye Ningfu was a little embarrassed by the praise and subconsciously wanted to scratch her head.
Ye Ningfu actually had a slight regret in her heart; she had wanted to shape herself to be more mature and sexy, to fit her own aesthetic.
However, age was a significant drawback. She hadn't even been around for a full month, and forcing maturity would only seem incongruous.
This current appearance of a youthful elf girl... is quite cute, isn't it?
It's worth mentioning that Ye Ningfu's current Charm had soared from B all the way to A.
The phrase "greatly increase charm" from "Jade Face Flower Appearance" had an immediate effect!
Now, Ye Ningfu's charm was entirely enough to contend with Billie.
However, this also indirectly proved how terrifying Billie's charm was.
Ye Ningfu relied on her witch abilities and delicate mimicry to stack her charm to A, but what about Billie?
She relied purely on her natural beauty and her sunny, cheerful, highly infectious personality charm!
One can only say that normies are truly terrifying!
