Chapter 85 Mulihela
Although Adrien is a male insect, his mental strength has reached a level that can suppress the waves in his mental sea.
Morris' stature was eventually reduced to a small size, and Edrien's mental power split into sharp blades, facing Morris who was approaching in the sky.
Morris was unable to dodge and was almost pierced by the oncoming mental spike in his wing. He lost his balance and his whole body fell uncontrollably.
Adrian seized the opportunity, grabbed Morris's shoulder with one hand and pressed him above the sea: "Who are you pretending with, little brat?"
Morris's face was soaked by the surging sea water. He struggled under Edrien's hands, and many of the small pearls on his collar fell off: "You are so bold--"
"Yeah, I'm quite brave." Adrian picked him up with one hand and shook Morris in the air threateningly. Morris' wet hair was flying and his lips were almost bloodless with fear.
Adrian smiled at him and said, "May I ask you, do you have any opinion of me now?"
Morris: "..."
He looked at Adrian with moist eyes. Adrian had no intention of attacking him for the time being and waited for Morris's answer with a half-smile.
Morris gritted his teeth and said after a moment: "...No."
Adrian snatched Morris's sword. He was slightly satisfied after hearing Morris's answer. He lifted his thigh and let him sit on his arm.
"I haven't met you yet. Who are you?" Adrian rubbed Morris's head and asked some simple questions to soothe his nerves.
Morris' pupils looked at Adrian's face. Adrian had fair and clean skin, thick and slightly curled eyelashes. Affected by the surrounding environment, there was an invisible layer of mist in his eye sockets.
Morris coughed. "Carnostier."
Adrian: “…”
"Are you telling the truth?" Adrian patted his lower back. "Tell me your full name."
Morris pursed his lips. He stared at Adrien uncertainly for a few seconds before he spoke again: "Kanostil Murikhela."
Adrian: “…”
"...Do you know Morris?" Edrien was somewhat suspicious of the identity of this child. Murikhela is the royal surname of the current insect race. It was surprising that this insect cub would say such a name.
Morris was honest. He shook his head and said, "I don't know him."
Adrian frowned, and just as he was about to ask a few more questions, he suddenly heard gunshots from afar. They were getting closer and closer, and the sounds of single pistol shots turned into machine gun fire, and the entire sky was instantly covered with dark clouds.
"Don't let him get away! Damn it, he's going that way!"
"Catch them all and shoot the suspects on the spot!"
"It looks just like the photo. Do you see it clearly? Send out the wanted notice..."
Morris's face turned pale instantly, and he bit Adrian without thinking. Adrian's neck suddenly felt painful, and he let go of his hand. Morris took the opportunity to spread his wings and fly into the sky.
He paused in the air and moved his lips, hesitating as if he wanted to say something to Adrian.
Edrien covered his neck and looked up: "Morris..."
Morris finally said nothing. He turned and flew away, diving into the dark clouds that were gathering steadily.
Edrien's pupils followed his flying figure. He took a step forward, and his eardrum was numbed by the sudden sound of gunfire.
At the same time, a figure in the dark clouds fell with the sound of gunfire. The golden patterns on his wings flickered, and in just a few seconds he quickly fell into the sea, and was swept away by the surging sea water.
Adrian's eyes trembled: "Morris!"
Adrian immediately used his mental power to suppress the surrounding water flow. Half of his body was submerged in the sea water, and he kept moving towards the direction where Morris fell.
The female insect's own memory core exists in the spiritual sea. No matter who the cub is, since he exists deep in Morris' memory, he is a part that Morris attaches great importance to.
Once the worm is hurt, the resulting memory fluctuations will further stimulate Morris's spiritual sea, causing a new round of mental disorder.
Adrian swam towards the deeper waters regardless of anything. His spiritual sea was turbulent, and Adrian could feel that the spiritual power in his body was quickly dissolving and dissipating.
"Am I blind? I can't see."
"I, I can't see... What should I do? I didn't provoke them, they just came up suddenly..."
Adrian heard some other crisp sounds. He walked forward in the biting cold wind, only to feel the fog in front of him getting thicker and thicker, as if deliberately obscuring the scene ahead.
Adrian's physical strength was still depleting rapidly. He walked forward with a frown, pushing away the thick fog in front of him and looking ahead intentionally.
There was an intermittent sound of sobbing coming from the front. Adrian guessed that it might be the injured Morris crying, and secretly quickened his pace.
"Morris..."
It took Edrian a lot of effort to walk into the thick mist. The sea water almost submerged his neck. He struggled forward and finally saw the figure of the insect cub hidden in the white mist.
"Morris, don't be sad, I will heal you..." Adrian paused as he spoke. The baby bug turned its back to him and cried. Adrian couldn't see his face, but he could clearly see the naturally curly white hair on his head.
Adrian was stunned: "Who are you?"
The worm didn't answer him. He turned his back to Edrian and cried. His sobs gradually subsided.
The white mist around him gradually thickened, and suddenly a thunderclap struck from the sky. Edrian's feet lost their strength, and the whole insect plunged into the sea.
The water in the spiritual sea was pitch black, and soon after Adrien fell in, he felt a surge of suffocation. He mobilized the spiritual power in his body and controlled his body to swim upwards.
Everything in front of him was black, and Edrian swam forward relying on his mental perception. Just as he was about to grab the clothes of the insect cub, his body was suddenly dragged out by an external force.
Adrian realized that it was Morris's signal for him to leave the spiritual sea. He ignored Morris's instructions and continued forward to show Morris that he was still fine and did not need to leave for the time being.
The external force did show signs of stopping, and just as Adrian was about to move forward, he didn't expect the external force to suddenly grab his ankle and drag him outward.
Adrian was caught off guard and plunged headfirst into the sea. Before he could react, Morris forcefully pushed him out of his spiritual sea.
"Ahem..." Edrian frowned. He opened his eyes and his pupils dilated for a few seconds before he could see the scene clearly.
"My Lord, are you okay?" Morris stroked Adrian's back. Without waiting for Adrian to speak, he admitted his mistake decisively, "My Lord, I was too worried about you just now. I didn't mean to squeeze you out."
