Chapter 19 Getting Better

Theresa stared at the scarlet mark.

The pale wrist had a sculpture-like curve, and beneath the thin texture was a perfectly structured bone. However, on such an arm, there appeared a circle of crimson teeth marks that shouldn't have appeared.

This mark did not destroy the beauty of the arm. On the contrary, it broke the cold perfection and cast a layer of ambiguity and desire on the appearance in the young man's memory.

Theresa's whole body was trembling, and green scales appeared uncontrollably on her skin. She tried to restrain herself from going crazy, but the anger, fear, panic, and desire in her heart could no longer be suppressed.

And just at this moment, the voice of God the Father came gently: "Teresa, what's wrong?"

Theresa instantly returned to being the saintly young man at this moment. He heard himself smiling and answering, "Nothing, please take me away."

So they continued to walk outside, and Theresa no longer tried to touch the Father's wrist. He just felt the warmth of his palm and lowered his head in silence.

Jasmine was always within his field of vision, and the only one who could leave a mark was Alice.

Ahhh...it's Alice...

Alice

How dare you?

After Su Yun finished his not-so-happy day trip to the maze, he brought Theresa back to Jasmine's boat.

Jasmine's surroundings were always so lively, and there was endless laughter on the pure black ship.

This time he seemed to be tidying up clothes. Countless cloths of different materials and colors were spread all over the ground. The gods' servants knelt on the ground and kept changing the tools in their hands. Dozens of enchanting ladies shuttled between the masts like butterflies, and from time to time they took over the robes just made by the gods' servants and changed them.

Compared with such a grand occasion, even the most extravagant fashion shows in later generations are no more than this. No fashion exhibition organized by humans can have such lavish materials, such fast and outstanding designers and tailors, and stunning models who fly up and down as light as swallows.

Su Yun: “…”

Su Yun looked at the fancy scene in front of him, his heart was calm, but he didn't want to laugh either.

Jasmine came in the rain of flower petals. As expected, he had changed into a long robe, and there was a hint of decadence between his handsome eyebrows.

"My Lord, I have made a new robe for you. Would you like to try it?" He hooked the collar on her slender neck suggestively.

"Thank you." Su Yun declined, "But you don't have to.

, I am very happy with my clothes. ”

Jasmine's clothing style is too high-profile and extravagant, and Su Yun doesn't like it.

"Is that so..." Jasmine sighed regretfully, "You rejected me again."

Then he changed the subject, and the brief sorrow disappeared: "My God, someone came to see you these days."

Jasmine had put on such a big show and had a ship parked on the water, it would be abnormal if the humans here didn't come to ask for a meeting, but Su Yun just wanted to take a good look at this civilization and had no interest in dealing with humans.

"Refuse it," he said to Jasmine, "We will leave here after the labyrinth of Creon Island is solved."

Su Yun had his own considerations on this matter. Creon Island was not just a vacation spot he picked casually, but a buffer period he chose.

He wanted to use this time to let Jasmine and his two brothers get to know each other better. Although the possibility was small, he still wanted to avoid them killing each other...

Once the relationship between the three has adjusted to a stable situation, we can start to resurrect Anita. Anita is ranked fourth, and it will take a lot of time to revive her.

And Anita... this child is very willful. If the three of them can't manage their relationship well, and another one becomes even more noisy... Su Yun will have no way to live.

Jasmine didn't know that Su Yun had already arranged for the resurrection of his next brother. He kept Su Yun's arrangement in mind: "I understand, reject all of them... Master, do I need to prepare a position for you to show in front of people? When the warriors of this island challenge the maze."

Are we going to watch the war as a human society?

Su Yun nodded: "Go and prepare if you like."

Jasmine smiled slightly and bowed exaggeratedly: "Yes."

Dreams always end.

But this time when Su Yun opened his eyes, he felt particularly satisfied.

Jasmine enjoyed the extravagant bustle. Maybe Su Yun didn't necessarily appreciate the indulgence, but he liked the enthusiasm that Jasmine showed when she was enjoying herself, and the mood that he wanted to share with her.

There are also Theresa's flowers and Alice's little temper.

It's so strange, why does he feel satisfied with this? Obviously, he has no interest in these things in the real world.

Satisfaction... What a precious emotion this is for him!

He got up and drew back the curtains, letting the bright red morning sun shine in. This time his shadow was cast on the crystal vase. The flowers that Dr. Wang had given him yesterday were still blooming, emitting a faint scent.

Subtle aroma.

Su Yun smiled, took out his cell phone to take a few pictures of the flowers, and then walked into the simple and elegant kitchen. Brand new pots were hung in a row in the closet, which could be used as mirrors for people to see. Except for the crucian carp and grass carp he had bought a few days ago, Su Yun had basically never used this kitchen.

He opened the refrigerator, and found only dry bread and the wine he bought a few days ago. Su Yun grabbed the bread and looked at it, and found that the date on it had expired...

There is no need to take a picture of this refrigerator.

Su Yun changed his clothes and went downstairs to buy milk and bread at the convenience store. Then he returned to the apartment, placed colorful porcelain plates on the table in an alternating pattern, put the bread on the plates, and heated the milk in a porcelain cup.

Fresh flowers, wooden tables, and a simple breakfast.

Su Yun took a few photos and sent them to Dr. Wang via email.

He now finally felt a little satisfied, and he thought he had to let Dr. Wang know.

The emails were replied very quickly, and there were several of them in a row. Dr. Wang's words were full of surprise and encouragement, but Su Yun looked at the joy that was overflowing in the words and felt unable to empathize with them.

Since I don’t feel anything...let’s just let it go for now.

What was different from a few days ago was that now a glimmer of hope was burning in Su Yun's heart - the burning of hope itself was incredible.

Maybe one day he will be able to understand such joy?

Su Yun slowly ate his breakfast, and the small bottle of medicine was still in the small drawer under the dining table.

After washing the dishes, Su Yun went into the bathroom. He needed to clean his hair. He hadn't had a haircut in a long time. His hair had grown to half-length and his beard had grown a little.

The reason why Su Yun still looks like a gentle young man instead of a decadent old brother is all because his face can stand the test.

Su Yun quickly washed the dishes and blew his hair dry. However, when he was looking in the mirror and blowing his hair, he noticed something unusual.

That’s weird, has his hair…changed color?

Because his mother is mixed-race, his hair color is dark brown. You may not be able to see it in a crowd, but you can see the difference if you look closely. Compared with others, his hair looks like it has been permed and dyed.

But now, a few strands of hair had turned raven black.

As dusk fell, tiny dots of gorgeous light began to ignite on the pure black ship.

Jasmine leaned against the huge soft couch and looked up at the sky full of lights on the masts and sides of the ship.

“That lotus—move a little to the left, I want the master to see it directly.

"," Jasmine directed the puppets enthusiastically, "raise the jellyfish, not too high, and place it under the foam."

There was something new going on on the ship. As night fell, Jasmine turned his ship into a light show. The "lotus", "jellyfish" and "bubble" he mentioned were all bright lights of various shapes. The lampshades of these lights were all made of various precious minerals and metals, which were treasures that could not be seen in the world.

It is indeed not difficult to make a lampshade with glass, but how to carve various colored gemstones, amber, jade and crystal into curved surfaces as thin as paper, and then use them to make lamps of various shapes?

The huge raw material alone is not something that humans can find.

It's a visual feast.

Countless colorful but equally gorgeous lights were hung high up. They had various shapes, some depicting marine life and the beauty of the sea, some depicting the stems and leaves of various flowers and plants, and some depicting the stars in the sky...

Plants, flowers and animals are carefully placed on the deck. In the air is a light blue veil simulating sea water, dotted with countless bright bubbles. Fish and sea creatures swim among them, and above is a brilliant starry sky - looking from the bottom up, it is almost impossible to tell what is a light and what is a real star.

In order to make the various colors of light blend, the beauties all wore pure white long skirts this time. They walked on the deck holding large and small lights in their hands, and the hems of their skirts swayed in beautiful arcs like waves.

The largest lamp was held up by the fairies together. It was a giant whale that required dozens of people to lift. The lampshade was carved from clear sea-blue ore, and the bright light reflected an intoxicating blue-green color. It was carefully lifted into the air, as if it came alive, and would be able to swim in the sea of ​​lights the next moment.

Jasmine smiled as he watched his carefully crafted fantasy world until he saw someone on his deck who shouldn't be there.

Ever since he came back with Father God, he has been staying quietly in his little corner. He thought he would write like this forever, but he didn't expect...what could possibly alarm him?

"My dear brother, I thought you would never leave that little room." Jasmine still lazily leaned on the cushions. "What's wrong? What terrible thing happened to you?"

Theresa walked around the rare treasures spread out on the ground. His expression looked very calm, but the fine scales faintly visible on his neck and wrists revealed his true emotions.

"Father God has gone to the temple now. I think I need to tell you." He said softly

"Alice broke the agreement. I'm going to kill him. Are you coming?"

Jasmine's smile disappeared, and he repeated, "Broken agreement, Alice?"

Horrible changes occurred in this man's body. The dark shell grew silently, and bone spurs gracefully extended from his back. They curled up and trembled under the suppression of their master, and the membrane covered them.

The poisonous liquid droplets dripped silently, and with a slight "crack" sound, the extremely solid deck made by Jasmine herself was corroded and a black hole appeared.

"Ah..." Jasmine lowered her eyes and looked at the ground, sighing expressionlessly, "You're right, go kill him."
