Lan Cangming and Night Abyss exchanged a look and pulled up the security feed on their terminals almost simultaneously.
On the screen, the small, white-furred female cub was curled into a ball, sleeping soundly. Suddenly, inky-black scales erupted from her tailbone, shooting up its length like thorns.
It abruptly opened its scarlet eyes, its lizard tail lashing out to shatter the electronic lock on the door. Flying metal shards precisely pierced the camera lens, and the feed instantly dissolved into static.
"Did it lose control?"
Lan Cangming frowned. A pale blue light washed over the entire room like a wave, finally locking onto a pink pig-shaped sofa near the wall.
"Come out!"
Night Abyss barked, flipping the pink pig sofa over with one hand.
A black shadow shot out like an arrow loosed from a bow.
