Sang Ruo hugged her waist tightly.
"Sister Lian, I feel so at ease with you here. You have no idea what inhuman torture my kind are suffering."
Nangong Yue, who had been playing a background role, watched as the three mermaids and Xiao Yao all seemed to regard her as their leader.
I couldn't help but retort.
"What use is she coming?"
As someone who is completely powerless, she is good for nothing except for her overly beautiful face.
Yun Lian glanced at Nangong Yue and silently tried to sow discord between Xiao Yao and Nangong Yue.
"Yaoyao, your boyfriend seems to dislike me a bit~"
She spoke in several different tones in one sentence, and Xiao Yao saw this side of her for the first time.
He chuckled and hugged her waist.
Her waist is so slim, soft, and smells wonderful.
"Nangong Yue, if you bully Sister Lian again, I'll teach you a lesson."
Zhu Yue disliked Yun Lian's gaze lingering on others, so he reached out and pulled Yun Lian into his arms.
"Lianlian, do you want to wait for us outside? It might be chaotic inside, and I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you."
Yun Lian wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Don't worry, I definitely won't hold you back."
Jialan immediately expressed her opinion, patting her chest loudly.
"Master, don't worry. Just go in and save people. I promise that Yun Lian won't lose a single hair."
Seeing the unwavering determination on Yun Lian's face, Zhu Yue knew she couldn't sway her mind, so she threw all her protective gear to Yun Lian almost as if it were free.
"This is the fire-repelling pearl, this is the water-repelling bomb, and this is my heart-protecting scale. You must take good care of these items and avoid getting hurt."
Jialan's good things were all given to him by his master, and those little trinkets seemed a bit useless at this moment, so he silently took Yun Lian's hand.
He will definitely protect Yun Lian.
She had promised herself that she would stay by his and her master's side until the end of her life.
He will protect her with his life, just as he promised.
Yun Lian squeezed his protective scale tightly. This scale was the hardest part of the mermaid's body. With it, one could even hear sounds from the deep sea and swim freely in the water.
"Stop nagging! It'll be too late if we don't go in soon. Don't forget the purpose of our trip."
As soon as Yun Lian spoke, Zhu Yue and Jia Lan exchanged a glance and nodded in unison, placing their hands on the door.
At that moment, a miraculous scene unfolded: the impenetrable door gradually melted into a pool of molten iron and quickly disappeared, as if it had never existed.
Almost as soon as the group approached the research institute, they were met with a barrage of fire.
Like the protagonist in a fantasy film, Zhuyue stretched out his palms, creating an invisible wall of light that caused all the cannonball attacks to fall into.
Aside from causing ripples, it brought about no other changes.
"Monster! Monster is coming! Monster is here to claim our lives!"
Those who witnessed this scene fled quickly, only to be grabbed by the neck by unseen large hands and fall to the ground silently.
Flames ignited in Sang Ruo's palms, almost blocking the attack from Zhu Yue, and she melted the corpse.
Finally, they arrived at the place where the mermaids were imprisoned.
Inside the giant glass walkways are mermaids with numerous scars on their bodies.
Those iron cages that barely manage to fit into a small human often contain two or three mermaids.
Sang Ruo's eyes blazed with fury.
"This is outrageous! How dare they treat my people like this!"
Jialan had tears in his eyes almost the entire way. When had he ever seen such a tragic mermaid?
In his mind, mermaids were elegant, beautiful, and free.
But the mermaids here were miserable, suffering, and desperate, unlike anything he had ever seen before.
A hostile gaze swept over Nangong Yue. "Didn't you say you humans are innocent? But which of these incidents, one after another, proves your innocence?"
Nangong Yue watched all of this in silence.
He never dared to underestimate the darkness of human nature.
Even he couldn't have imagined that human nature could be so dark.
"I will unite all of humanity to give your mermaid race an explanation. Please believe in our determination; what happened in this laboratory was not what we wanted."
Xiao Yao's eyes were red.
She thought that what she saw on Mermaid Island was horrifying enough, and she was filled with righteous indignation, so she sent back everything that happened on Mermaid Island.
But what she is seeing now is something she never imagined.
How exactly can one remove a complete mermaid tail to achieve such a flawless appearance?
The strong, beating mermaid heart in the tank, and the dying mermaid beside it, further demonstrate what had just happened.
At this moment, she, who always prided herself on being righteous, seemed to have become an accomplice to evil.
Witnessing it firsthand is already shocking, so what about the mermaids who actually experienced it?
How much pain they must be in.
"They don't even deserve to be called human!"
While everyone was filled with indignation, Yun Lian quietly left the group.
She saw all of this, and she could see even more.
She saw that the entire laboratory was filled with an overwhelming sense of resentment.
Seeing the battered mermaid spirits darting around in the air in a daze and fear, and even seeing several mermaid spirits that were not yet fully formed.
She could only see a rough outline, but even that made her want to tear the culprit who orchestrated all of this to pieces.
"No wonder Zhuyue turned evil in the original story, wishing she could perish together with humanity."
Anyone who sees their own kind being treated with such cruelty and brutality would want to destroy the world.
"Yes, host, it's fortunate that you arrived early, there's still a chance to salvage everything."
As long as the conflict between mermaids and humans is completely eliminated, the small world will definitely not collapse again.
Suddenly, Yun Lian smiled coldly as she looked at the mermaid in the water, who had lost all her internal organs and even had empty eyes without eyeballs.
"Who said I was going to try to save it?"
She wants to completely destroy the world.
Humans never feel that they are at fault, even though this war between humans and mermaids was because humans captured the mermaids first.
Yet all of humanity still blamed the mermaids for everything.
"San'er, you're so omnipotent, you should be able to synchronize everything that's happening here to various screens around the world, right?"
"Don't worry, host, I can definitely do it!"
It's just a screen projection. The reason it and its host came to this small world is because they helped humans avoid several attacks from the mermaid race.
It has already been fed energy by this Heavenly Dao several times.
He's full of energy right now.
Yun Lian gazed at the beautiful mermaid whose scales had been completely stripped away, and disregarding the pool full of blood, she scooped out the extremely pitiful mermaid.
At this moment, her voice was as gentle as water.
"Don't worry, I will avenge you. In your next life, be a carefree little girl."
