Soon, He Xie arrived at the source of the sound.
Then it turned out that Chen Yuntong, the "woman of the sea," really had drowned.
"Help...my life!"
"Help... glug glug glug!"
"Waaaaah... Help!"
Chen Yuntong struggled violently in the water, her pretty face filled with pain.
Aquaman drowned; perhaps this is his way of returning to his roots.
He Xie chuckled to himself, then quickly fled to Chen Yuntong's side, lest this female sea queen really drown later.
Um?
Suddenly, He Xie realized something was wrong.
In his memory, Chen Yuntong's biological level was ordinary sixth rank.
Among her peers, she was considered an academic superstar.
Could such a creature drown?
Thinking of this, he did not approach Chen Yuntong rashly, but instead activated his five senses to the maximum.
It was discovered that Chen Yuntong's body was tightly bound by a high-energy body.
Ancient alien races!
He Xie's eyes lit up, and then he used a Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy card on the high-energy object.
[Name]: Not yet named
[Race]: Water Spirit
[Level]: Common Tier 1
[Skill]: Luck from Drowning
What the heck?
This thing is only a regular Tier 1?
In other words, it is currently overpowering and killing Chen Yuntong, who is at the sixth level, despite being of a higher level?
Or is it the kind that involves jumping five levels?
Awesome!
He Xie was greatly shocked and quickly flew towards the water spirit on Chen Yuntong's body.
At this moment, the water spirit looked puzzled.
There's clearly nothing in the water, so why do I keep feeling like something is rapidly approaching me?
Just as it was wondering, a transparent human face suddenly appeared in front of it.
He looks handsome, but he's scary.
Shui Ling: "!"
!
"uproar!"
Shui Ling was so frightened that she immediately let go of Chen Yuntong and jumped into the water, splashing up a lot of waves.
Hey, little guy, you run pretty fast.
He Xie was delighted. He suddenly pushed Chen Yuntong ashore with all his might and immediately chased after the fleeing water spirit.
Chen Yuntong: "???"
who I am?
Where am I?
What just happened?
Chen Yuntong sat on the riverbank, completely bewildered.
She thought she was going to die.
My body was tightly bound by something, and I couldn't press the dial to call for help.
Just when he was in despair and resigned to his fate, he suddenly felt a strong push from below, and then he was thrown into the air, landing on the shore and saving his life.
"Did I just almost die?"
Chen Yuntong touched her pert buttocks, which were still a little sore from being pushed underwater, and felt a wave of fear.
......
On the other side, at the bottom of the river.
He Xie's five senses were fully activated, and he closely chased after the water spirit in front of him.
He could catch up with it at any time and smash it to pieces with one punch.
But he wasn't in a hurry.
Despite having crammed so much on evolutionary theory, he had no idea that there was such a primordial alien race as the Water Spirit.
Therefore, he guessed that the water spirit in front of him must be as rare as the nine-tailed fox.
Now that we've finally encountered one, we should definitely follow it closely and observe it carefully.
After all, as the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle."
However, it is difficult to achieve this by simply learning from textbooks.
You still need to do more hands-on observation.
"Gurgle!"
"Gurgle gurgle gurgle!"
"Gurgle, gurgle!"
As He Xie chased after it, he suddenly noticed that the water sprite in front of him was constantly blowing bubbles.
He was puzzled, wondering if this thing was talking?
Then, on a whim, he endowed the water spirit with the ability to speak human language.
The next moment, the water spirit that was frantically fleeing in front suddenly started whimpering.
"Waaaaah!"
"What on earth is chasing me?!"
"I'm so scared!"
"Please, please stop chasing me!"
Please!
The girl's voice was very fast, spitting out five breaths per second.
At the same time, the sound has strong penetrating power and can be heard clearly even underwater.
However, it doesn't seem to realize that it is now speaking human language, instead of just gurgling in the water as before.
He Xie, who was behind it, was now completely excited.
Good heavens, this water sprite is actually female.
Moreover, her voice sounds very cute, giving the impression of a lovely and adorable girl.
Take it!
We must enslave it with our lifeblood!
Thinking of this, He Xie stopped pursuing.
He transformed into a sheet of water, swallowing the water spirit in front of him like a gaping maw from an abyss.
Then it leaped out of the water and landed on the shore, transforming back into human form.
The water spirit he had just swallowed slid off his body and quickly fled towards the river.
"Little thing, where are you running to?"
He Xie laughed, took out an empty bottle from his system backpack, grabbed the water sprite on the ground, and stuffed it into the bottle.
Shui Ling was terrified and huddled at the bottom of the bottle, trembling.
He Xie found it amusing, gently tapped the bottom of the bottle, and asked, "What are you?"
Shui Ling didn't respond, she just kept trembling.
If He Xie hadn't remembered that he had just given it the ability to speak human language, he would have thought that this thing was mute.
Oh, right, blood and essence enslavement!
I haven't used this biological skill before, so it's a good opportunity to give it a try to this water spirit.
He Xie suddenly realized this.
He immediately bit his index finger, and without any instruction, he managed to condense a drop of his own blood.
At that moment, a system notification popped up.
[Qi and Blood -!]
The moment the notification appeared, He Xie felt as if all the blood in his body had been drained, and his face instantly turned deathly pale.
"Damn, is the price really that high?!"
He Xie was dumbfounded. The skill details of this Blood Essence Enslavement did not mention any cost. He did not know that condensing a drop of blood essence would deduct so much health points.
He lost over 10,000 health points in one go, he really lost out.
"You idiot, it's all your fault!"
He Xie angrily cursed at the water spirit in the bottle, then tenderly dripped the drop of blood from his fingertip into it.
The moment the blood drop fell, it was instantly absorbed by the water within.
At the same time, He Xie could clearly feel a thread extending from his body, tightly connecting him to the water spirit in the bottle.
Even with eyes closed and consciousness shut off, one can still clearly perceive where Shui Ling is.
Furthermore, this perception is unidirectional.
He could only sense Shui Ling, but Shui Ling couldn't sense him at all.
It is a one-sided master-slave relationship.
Having understood all this, He Xie commanded the water spirit in the bottle with some anticipation, "Hurry up, call out to your master so I can hear it."
"Master...Master."
Shui Ling resisted calling out "Thank you, Master," but ultimately, under the effect of the Blood Essence Slave skill, she was forced to utter those two words against her will.
Seeing this, He Xie was overjoyed.
This bloodline enslavement technique is awesome!
The lost health and mana were worth it!
After calming himself down a bit, He Xie commanded the water spirit in the bottle again, "Introduce yourself to your master."
Shui Ling didn't want to talk.
Unfortunately, she couldn't withstand the powerful effects of the blood essence enslavement and was forced to speak again: "I...I don't know, I was only...born...and only recently gained sentience."
Goodness, so young and adorable?
This has great potential for development.
Oh right, this little thing doesn't have a name yet. Let's give it one first.
What name should I choose?
He Xie thought for a moment, then looked at the water spirit in the bottle and said, "Since you are a water spirit and have only been born for a short time, I will give you a childish name, Shui Shui."
Shui Ling remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.
"By the way, tell me what the effect of your biological skill 'Luck of Drowning' is."
He Xie recalled the scene of Shui Ling defeating Chen Yuntong by leaping five levels above her own, and couldn't help but become curious about its biological skills.
This time, Shui Ling wasn't as resistant as before, and spoke fluently, saying, "The effect is that when you're in the water, you can absorb the target's strength and use it for your own benefit."
"A shift in one's fortunes?"
"Yes!"
"Awesome!"
He Xie was incredibly envious.
This aquatic creature's skills are insane.
He wanted it too.
Just then, a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Why thank me?"
