PFC Chapter 166
Chapter 166
When Lin Ziyu opened his eyes again, he found himself in a deep, azure world. All around him were a dazzling array of colorful marine life, swimming and darting freely. Some of these wondrous creatures danced gracefully like dreamlike spirits; some were as majestic and imposing as mountains; and still others were small and delicate, shimmering like gems.
In the center of this magical sea, stands a magnificent Crystal City. Like a dazzling pearl embedded in the depths of the ocean floor, this city radiates a captivating light. Undoubtedly, this is the habitat of the mysterious sea creatures.
Lin Ziyu was deeply attracted by the amazing sight before him. He was as excited as a child, looking around with wide eyes.
At that moment, a group of sea-clan guards, clad in ornate armor, quickly gathered around. They held sharp weapons, their expressions serious, yet their eyes revealed a hint of curiosity and awe. The leading guard, a burly figure with a resonant voice, demanded, "Is this the orcish Dragon Prince?"
Long Yan's face was as calm as water. He nodded slightly and replied, "That's right."
Upon hearing this answer, the leading sea clan guard's face immediately showed joy, and he hurriedly said respectfully: "I am the sea clan general Hai Yan, and I am here to welcome Your Highness on the orders of the Sea Emperor. Your Highness Prince Long, please follow me." As he spoke, he turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation, leading Long Yan and Lin Ziyu towards the Crystal City.
Long Yan, Lin Ziyu, and their group followed Hai Yan slowly forward. Along the way, all kinds of strange seaweed swayed gently with the current, as if welcoming their arrival. Lin Ziyu looked around curiously, and from time to time, he quietly asked Long Yan about the sea creatures.
Soon, they arrived in front of a massive palace, built from countless crystals, reflecting a dazzling light. Haiyan led them into the palace gate and said politely, "Prince Long, please forgive me. I can only invite you and Pharmacist Lin in."
Long Yan nodded and said, "Long Yi, you wait here."
"Yes, Your Highness." Long Yi and the other eight people replied respectfully.
Hai Yan looked at Long Yan with gratitude, "Thank you, Your Highness Prince Long, Pharmacist Lin, please come in..." He bent slightly and made a gesture of invitation.
Long Yan and Lin Ziyu cautiously followed Hai Yan's footsteps, slowly entering the magnificent palace. As soon as they entered, they were struck by the sight before them—Hai Lanyue, like a sleeping fairy, lay quietly upon a vast, crystalline ice crystal. His beautiful face, framed by the ice crystal, seemed even paler and more serene, as if time had frozen beside her.
Long Yan and Lin Ziyu glanced at each other, understanding each other's thoughts from their eyes. There was no doubt that Hai Lanyue's clothing at this moment showed that he was the Sea Emperor, and the old Sea Emperor had passed away.
Lin Ziyu turned to look at Hai Yan beside him and asked, "General Hai, I wonder if I would have the honor to check on the current condition of the Sea King? Perhaps with my medical skills, I can be of some help to the Sea King." His tone was sincere and humble, and his eyes revealed concern.
Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Hai Yan's eyes, and he nodded quickly and responded: "Thank you, Pharmacist Lin! If you can really help the Sea Emperor recover soon, it will be a great blessing for our sea clan!" After that, he stepped aside to make way and motioned Lin Ziyu to go forward to check.
Lin Ziyu nodded slightly and walked towards the ice crystal emitting a mysterious light. He came to Hai Lanyue's side. He observed Hai Lanyue's condition carefully and saw that he was pale, which was caused by excessive blood loss.
Lin Ziyu thought for a moment and decided to use water-based spiritual energy to further explore his physical condition. Lin Ziyu's mind moved, and a light blue spiritual energy light emerged from his hand, carefully exploring Hai Lanyue's body, slowly spreading to Hai Lanyue's entire body.
Under Lin Ziyu's powerful psychic perception, a shocking image appeared in his mind. He saw several insects hidden within Hai Lanyue's body! These insects, the same color as Hai Lanyue's blood, were entwined in his heart and abdomen, where psychic energy gathered. Even more terrifying, the slightly heaving bellies of the insects clearly showed that they were greedily consuming Hai Lanyue's blood and psychic energy!
Lin Ziyu's brow furrowed, his expression growing grave after he withdrew his psychic energy. Hai Yan, upon seeing this, hurriedly asked, "Pharmacist Lin, what happened to His Majesty the Sea Emperor?" Lin Ziyu replied gravely, "There are several strange insects within the Sea Emperor's body, sucking his blood and psychic energy. These insects are the same color as the Sea Emperor's blood, making them difficult to detect."
Hai Yan was horrified upon hearing this. His voice trembled as he asked, "Pharmacist Lin, can the Sea Emperor be saved?"
At this moment, Hai Lanyue, who had been unconscious, moved her fingers slightly and uttered a low groan of pain. Hai Yan ran to Hai Lanyue's side and said nervously, "Lan'er, what did you say? Lan'er... hold on..."
Lin Ziyu took a deep breath and said to Hai Yan, "General Hai, in the case of the Sea Emperor, we must first draw these insects out of the body, otherwise his life will be in danger. However, the process of drawing out the insects is also extremely dangerous."
Hai Yan didn't wait for Lin Ziyu to finish and replied without hesitation: "Pharmacist Lin, as long as it can save His Majesty, we are willing to try no matter how dangerous it is."
Lin Ziyu turned to look at Long Yan and asked for his opinion. Long Yan nodded gently, his eyes encouraging him, "Do whatever you want, I support you."
After Lin Ziyu got the support of the two, he calmed down and said, "General Hai, I need a quiet room to prepare some things."
Haiyan said, "Okay, is the one next door okay? I'll take you there."
Lin Ziyu nodded and said, "Okay."
Hai Yan sent them to the door of the next room and then went back to accompany Hai Lanyue.
Lin Ziyu and Long Yan walked into the next room. Long Yan touched Lin Ziyu's hair and said gently, "I'll protect you..."
Lin Ziyu smiled back at him, closed his eyes, and entered the space with his consciousness. He began to call out, "Xiao Xinxin... Xiao Xinxin..."
The spirit of the weapon, Lin Xin, ran over happily, followed by the plush ball, the magic bamboo, the magic dragon and others.
"Master, what do you want from me?" asked the spirit Lin Xin.
Lin Ziyu used his psychic power to release what he saw of Hai Lanyue's physical condition. The weapon spirit Lin Xin, the plush ball, the magic bamboo and the magic dragon had different reactions when they saw it.
Weapon Spirit Lin Xin: "What is this? A blood-sucking worm, no..."
The furry ball showed a disgusted expression and said, "The Zerg have appeared again."
The Demon Dragon and the Demon Bamboo exclaimed, "Vampire Demon Bug."
Lin Ziyu looked at them and asked, "Do you know each other?"
The magic dragon pointed at the magic bamboo and said, "He knows best."
Mozhu explained, "In World of Warcraft, there's a place called the Abyss. There are many of these bugs there. They can change color according to the illusion, and all living things hate them. They can not only suck blood, but also spiritual energy. Most importantly, once you are parasitized by them, you can only wait for death."
Lin Ziyu frowned and asked, "Don't they have any natural enemies? Aren't they afraid of anything?"
The Demon Dragon and the Demon Bamboo both shook their heads, "I don't know..."
Lin Ziyu frowned, thinking about how to lure the worms out of his body.
The spirit Lin Xin jumped out and said, "Master, I understand. What are the insects afraid of? Come with me..." As it spoke, it pulled Lin Ziyu to a valley in the space. There was a large area of strange purple plants growing in the valley. It had blood-red flowers and emitted a very depressing aura.
"You're here." Accompanied by these gentle yet mysterious words, a graceful and elegant woman slowly emerged from the depths of the valley. She was clad in a gorgeous purple gown, her sleeves fluttering, like a fairy descending from the earth. Between her brows, a vibrant, blood-red pattern blazed like a burning flame, adding a touch of allure and allure to her already stunning features.
When she began to speak, her melodious voice reached Lin Ziyu's ears, giving him a sense of déjà vu, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had heard it before. Just as Lin Ziyu was thinking hard, suddenly, a faint but clear whisper floated into his ears again: "Blood... I need blood..."
