My scalp started to tingle.
What is this thing?
Even a lightning sword couldn't kill him.
Or rather, the creature that the lightning sword initially struck was not a living being.
Instead, it was a patch of tattered water plants that had been there for who knows how long.
I even strongly suspect that the seaweed on this strange man's body is the large patch of rotten seaweed in the middle of all the public areas.
Just as I was pulling Yiyi to the edge of the cutting board, the bright red writing in bloodstains left me completely dumbfounded.
"You can't kill your roommate!"
"obedience"
The bright red writing, still carrying a hint of the stench of blood, mingled with the coral and seaweed, like a curse from hell.
Upon closer inspection, I noticed that beneath the relatively clear text, there appeared to be some worn-out writing hidden beneath.
"Invincible...Reincarnation"
It has been almost completely washed away by the water flow.
It's basically very difficult to see clearly.
It seems to be something someone wrote on it before.
Could it be that we've been guests here more than once?
So this must be a request from a previous customer?
Invincible, reincarnated, unkillable.
It seems like everything I'm talking about is my roommate right in front of me.
If that's really the case, where did those two people go, and even more people?
I asked Yiyi for her opinion.
Yiyi's reply to me was that he wasn't quite sure about the situation either.
The only possibility is that there is a person, or more accurately, a machine, inside that is draining the energy of living people.
You could even say that there's a certain atmosphere or energy here.
Over time, this naturally enclosed space develops into a complete and detailed respiratory system.
Every breath, every exhale and inhale, is a reaction produced by the entire system.
My heart started pounding.
Now I'm more inclined to believe that someone is behind this.
If we were to accidentally stumble into something like a Qi formation and become part of the system, we would probably perish here!
I didn't think much of it, but silently prepared according to the instructions on the note, and shared my thoughts with Yiyi.
"If we can decipher the requirements on the note, there might still be a glimmer of hope!"
In the beginning, when we were in the first room, we should have just blindly followed what was written on the note.
They've long since become a feast for those marine creatures!
As I pondered, I also felt a sense of relief, as if I had survived a catastrophe.
Fortunately, I didn't hide under the table at that time.
If we follow this survival strategy, we should combine the current requirements with the person's needs and come up with a solution that satisfies both sides!
When Yiyi heard my idea, she nodded vigorously.
There was a hint of admiration or respect in his eyes that I couldn't quite place.
Yiyi and I pretended to be very busy and started chopping the fishy-smelling water plants with a knife.
The unbearable stench rose straight to the sky; I was afraid I would suffocate from the stench rather than be trapped.
After swaying back and forth for a while, I noticed that my roommate next to me didn't change at all.
You could even say that this guy seemed to be frozen in place.
I telepathically told Lei Jijian: Go try this guy!
Lei Jijian was already at a loss with this guy, but seeing his stupid stance, Lei Jijian charged up his power.
Then cut downwards—
Finally, it stopped in mid-air.
Throughout the entire process, the lightning sword's speed wasn't fast; in my mind, it was a charged, deadly strike.
But this roommate was different from the previous one; he didn't even make any move!
Even the initial action of being cut down, and the movement of the seaweed leaves stirring the seawater, are gone!
The only thing they had in common was that pungent, fishy odor.
I confirmed my suspicions: as long as we did what he said, my roommate would let his guard down.
They were completely at the mercy of others.
Or rather, his most basic sensory functions have disappeared.
It was a dead body, completely submerged in water and wrapped in water plants.
Although I felt nauseous for a while, I managed to tell Yiyi about it in a low voice.
It seems there are two pressing matters at hand now.
Cook for him, make him rice with fish. Don't stop.
Once it stops, there's the frenzied vibration of the seawater, coupled with a relentless, death-defying urging that keeps increasing in decibels.
You cannot stop or leave.
Otherwise, I guess the cleaver on this cutting board was meant for the two of us.
Whether the knife is dull or not by then will not be up to us.
As long as I'm still busy, I won't anger him.
As for this vegetarian diet, I was a little confused for a moment.
According to the handwriting on the original note, logically speaking, this roommate should not eat meat and should only be given vegetarian food.
Vegetarian? There are no green vegetables. Given the current environment, the only vegetarian option is probably these aquatic plants.
I can't just cut two pieces of coral and put them on top of him; that wouldn't make sense.
But if I were to follow my roommate's request and make him caviar-based dishes to mix with rice, I would feel a chill run down my spine.
Could the meat next to him be the caviar he was talking about?
I scrutinized it for a while, then pursed my lips.
The shape of this meat is clearly not fish, nor is it beef or mutton.
There are two possibilities: either it's the flesh of an animal I rarely see, or it's some kind of fish that I don't usually see in the sea.
