Yan Zi's words left the therapist speechless.
He nervously tugged at the hem of his clothes, feeling uneasy. Had he said something wrong that angered this big shot?
Yan Zi: "What do you think happened with that pink mist just now?"
The therapist paused for a few seconds, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she did not question his healing abilities. He then explained the specific composition of the mist.
"The smell is somewhat similar to the smell of the meadow we encountered when we first came in, mixed with a kind of 'scent fruit'. You can find 'scent fruit' in Jin Daye's mall system, and one fruit costs 10,000. I think it's a combination of these two things."
"If you accidentally inhale the misty vapor of the fans, you may be temporarily affected. In fact, we have all been affected, but Su Wanying may have been affected by the mermaid earlier, which caused her to have the strongest reaction and be affected immediately."
Upon hearing this, Yan Zi couldn't help but secretly gasp; this skill was truly despicable.
If you actually save someone, not only will you not receive any reward, but you might also lose your own life.
Yan Zi became increasingly convinced that those guys had deliberately left these corpses in this area so she would have to come and unseal it...
As for why they did it, it's definitely because it would benefit them...
That's why they spare no effort in coming up with such terrible ideas.
Yan Zi clenched her fist inwardly, then had everyone put the corpses back in their places.
Since you won't let me have an easy time, then I won't let you just lie there peacefully either.
Everyone sprang into action, and all the mermaid corpses they had released returned to their nests to continue being used as specimens.
One or two people who were still conscious were startled by what they saw, but they still couldn't escape being knocked back.
Mermaid No. 1: "You can't do this! You've already rescued me, why are you putting me back into that hell?"
Human: "It's because you don't like sleeping on flat ground. Maybe you mermaids prefer to float. I'm just doing this out of a sense of helping others!"
Mermaid 2: "I don't have such noble virtues. I just want to lie down peacefully. Can you give me a chance?"
Human: "We'll help you find a suitable spot; lying there a little longer won't kill you!"
"..."
The merfolk offered their own explanations in a cacophony of voices, and even those merfolk who were on the verge of death upon falling to the ground were so frightened by the scene that they were jolted awake.
Everyone was startled and took a step back in fright, followed by a surge of anger.
"They pressed all the mermaids back down."
Without regard for the consequences or any trace of pity, he moved several times faster.
Yan Zi had only just finished dealing with a few, while the rest of the team had already almost finished.
The mechanics successfully deciphered the combination locks on all the doors and easily made their way to the inner perimeter.
I thought there was only one huge glass tube inside, surrounded by a bunch of smaller ones, and inside that was a familiar person...
Zhou Yan was the first to jump up, pointing at the person inside the glass tube and stammering for a long time, unable to utter a single word.
Yan Zi's expression was also very unpleasant.
Xiao Bai: "That human is dead!"
Yan Zi: "What's going on? Why is he the only one left in this huge room?"
Xiao Bai: "It feels a bit like a warning. The human's spine has been pulled out, and there is a faint trace of blood in the air, but it must have been cleaned up, so you can't really smell it."
Yan Zi's face darkened completely.
Zhou Yan disregarded everything else and hurriedly squeezed to her side, asking, "What happened to Zhao Yi?"
Yan Zi glanced at him, then gestured for everyone to lay the glass jar flat.
Everyone stepped forward and pulled the person out of the glass tube. Zhou Yan was the most worried, and his face turned very ugly as soon as he started to pull.
Besides him, the other people who were busy working nearby also looked frightened, and their steps were unsteady...
"He...he...he..."
There's not much more to say; the others had already noticed something.
Zhou Yan's face instantly turned ashen, his expression full of incomprehension.
"he……"
Yan Zi took a deep breath in exasperation, then took a straw mat, rolled up his body, and put it in her backpack.
"Something must have happened here that we don't know about. The most important thing right now is to find a way out and prevent those people from killing the rest of us!"
Hearing this, everyone decided not to delay any longer and began to search the surrounding area.
With the help of two mechanics, they finally found a hidden door.
After the secret door was deciphered, a pitch-black tunnel appeared.
Yan Zi had the scouts go ahead to find the way, and soon they arrived at several forks in the road, where everyone split up and acted in groups.
Yan Zi chose the middle mine tunnel.
The area around the mine tunnel was flat, and the deeper one went, the more the walls were constructed. Yan Zi could feel that the material was the same as that in the laboratory outside when she gently touched them.
"I've found the way."
A gasp rang out from the direction ahead.
Yan Zi looked up and ran in the direction of the sound. As she passed by, she saw a place that looked like a prison, with several caged beasts inside.
She did not stay.
They arrived at another large door, which had already been opened. Inside, a group of people lay scattered about, all of them seriously injured.
Yan Zi looked closely and quickly spotted Mingyue in the crowd.
Her tail lay bloodied to the side, seemingly separating from her body, though the tailbone remained attached, making it look rather frightening.
Yan Zi rushed over immediately and then administered several doses of treatment medicine to her.
After taking the medicine, she finally came back to her senses, albeit in a daze.
Her gaze was fixed on the distance, and a sense of fear inexplicably spread around her.
She gripped Yan Zi's palm tightly, her voice hoarse as she said, "Young Master Sarabo is in the lowest laboratory. All the other merfolk who came with me are seriously injured. As for the humans... I didn't protect them..."
As she spoke, she suddenly burst into tears.
She had only intended to come and scout the way, but she never expected to lead them into an abyss.
These people are monsters, utterly devoid of humanity. At the slightest provocation, they unleash a massacre, brutally murdering all his people, not even sparing their own kind...
With a sorrowful expression, Mingyue recounted her entire experience in a halting manner.
After hearing this, Yan Zi clenched her fists tightly.
The experiment was actually conducted by a family member?
She didn't believe it.
Under everyone's gaze, she stood up firmly, arranged for a few people to take care of them, and then continued to move forward.
Before leaving, she told the remaining mermaids, "We won't do these kinds of studies. As for what you just mentioned, someone must be impersonating you. I need to go ahead and check things out. You can stay here and recover from your injuries."
