Chapter 41: The Pampered Control Group of the Civilization Fault World (Part 1)
“In this script, you are a medical university student who is on a mountaineering adventure. You and your companions accidentally transmigrate to a primeval forest. Your companions meet a top-tier beastman, and because of their rich knowledge of Blue Star, they are pampered by thousands.”
“And you meet a bad-tempered merman. The merman turns a blind eye to your predicament. In the end, you are bitten by a wild beast and starve to death in the forest.”
This was Yu Lin’s introduction in the new world.
The temperature in the Anglie Forest was extremely cold in the early morning. In a deep green, towering forest, cold water droplets slid down from the tips of the leaves and landed on the nose of the sleeping young man under the tree.
Yu Lin opened his eyes, and in the lush green trees that blotted out the sun, he finished reading the script. At the same time, he looked up and saw a brilliant and bright sky above his head.
Unlike the skies he had seen in the previous worlds, the sky in this world seemed to be separated by a layer of light blue, transparent glass cover. Outside the glass cover, a mechanical boat with a metallic luster would occasionally fly by.
“…”
Yu Lin looked up, glanced again, and confirmed that the bird-like existences were indeed metal boats.
The obvious technological products made Yu Lin doubt the script. He opened the script and glanced at the words “primeval forest” on it.
But this was a newly born world, and there was not much more introduction in the script. A moment later, when he looked up again, there was nothing in the sky, and it had returned to its clear and bright state.
“…”
Yu Lin blinked, suppressed the doubt in his heart, picked up the mountaineering bag by his leg, and got up from where he was sitting.
He was sitting on a patch of grass. The grass was lush green, and under it was damp soil.
It had just rained in the forest, and short, fat mushrooms were growing near the roots of the trees, making this space look like a world from a fairy tale.
In the excessively empty forest, after the transparent cover at the top of the sky had disappeared, the vines that blotted out the sun made this area look very empty.
After putting the system back into the space to rest, and after carefully reading the script, Yu Lin decided to go and find the bad-tempered merman, the plot character he was supposed to meet.
At first, Yu Lin thought that the merman would appear by the water, so he searched along the densely vegetated stream. But until night, this bad-tempered merman did not appear.
Unconsciously, the sky darkened, and the moonlight was clear and white, reflecting the reeds by the river.
The river water was shimmering at night. Yu Lin stopped, and under the moonlight, he checked the supplies in his mountaineering bag and ate some food.
The temperature at night was very low, and it was a little cold to wear a single layer of clothing. He zipped up his windbreaker, swept away the pebbles near the river, and prepared to set up a tent by the river.
He had thought that there would be no harvest today. While setting up the tent, Yu Lin set up a few defensive traps. As he was setting them up, a violent sound of crashing came from afar.
Yu Lin sensed something, and in the faint halo of the weak bonfire by the tent, he turned his head and, under the moonlight, he saw a damp shadow by the water.
The person who had come had handsome features, and a head of seaweed-like silver hair was half-draped over his shoulders. His phoenix eyes were lowered, and they were as cold and silver as the moonlight, and they were sharp in the shimmering water.
He was dragging a huge insect corpse, and a long silver chain was wrapped around his wrist. The chain slipped off inadvertently, and it glinted with a cold luster under the moonlight.
In the luster, his lower body was faintly visible. It was a beautiful, shimmering silver fish tail. The tail was gently flashing in the moonlight, mysterious and dangerous.
Yu Lin’s gaze fell on the scar on his tail, and combined with the mangled insect corpse in the other’s hand, he recognized that this was probably the hot-tempered merman who was keen on fighting.
The merman was in a bad mood, and his face was very foul. He looked up and pushed back his half-long silver hair, and then he threw the insect corpse in his hand to the shore with his tail.
After a loud bang, he lazily glanced at the corpse on the ground, then turned his head, and in Yu Lin’s direction, he didn’t even lift his eyelids, and coldly drove him away, “What are you? Get lost—”
He swung his tail, looked up impatiently, and his cold silver eyes swept impatiently at Yu Lin.
“…”
Through the moonlight, the two of them made eye contact.
A few seconds later, Sayin’s impatiently swinging tail slowly stopped.
The light at night was faint, and it was quiet by the river. Yu Lin looked up at the merman who was driving him away.
The other person was also looking at him, and he frowned slightly, just feeling that the person in front of him had his black hair hanging down slightly, and his eyes were quiet, a bit like a cat’s pupils, and unlike a beastman, he was not aggressive.
Sayin was of a high level and could tell at a glance that the person in front of him was not a beastman. He frowned slightly.
He wanted to tell him to get lost, but his heart was inexplicably squeezed.
He frowned, feeling the fluctuation from his heart. After a long while, he pressed his chest in confusion and warned, “What are you? This is my place.”
The merman’s tail swung, and his sharp nails popped out, and like a steel blade, they cut the stone that had bounced up in the water to pieces.
The pieces of flesh fell. Sayin looked at the person by the water placidly, waiting for the other party to submit.
“…” Yu Lin silently looked at the merman’s threatening actions.
He stared at the other’s dripping fingertips and felt that compared to the mission, it was more important to save his life.
He stood up and said softly, “I didn’t know this was your place. I’m sorry to have disturbed you.”
He picked up his mountaineering bag and nodded lightly. “I’ll leave now.”
Sayin: “…”
Staring in the direction Yu Lin had left, he was confused, and his handsome face gradually became gloomy.
A low pressure filled the space. Yu Lin remembered something and explained in a low voice, “I’ll leave my tent here for now. It won’t affect you. I’ll come back to take it down tomorrow…”
As he spoke, his footsteps suddenly paused, and he looked at the fish tail wrapped around his waist with confusion.
Sayin’s tail was very long and had a beautiful pearlescent luster. With a light sweep, it produced a huge force that pushed Yu Lin back.
“…What are you doing?”
The water’s edge was slippery. To avoid slipping, Yu Lin had to support himself on the merman’s tail fin when he stood firm.
His fingers were warm, and they were supporting the merman’s most sensitive tail. The warm touch covered this place.
Sayin only felt a sudden numbness at the tip of his tail. His eyebrows moved slightly, and his gaze fell on Yu Lin, and his Adam’s apple bobbed very lightly.
“Did I let you go?” He circled Yu Lin, leaned over slightly, and asked coldly, “What race are you?”
Yu Lin looked up into his beautiful phoenix eyes.
According to the introduction, this was a beastman world, perhaps with a little mysterious technological background.
Yu Lin glanced at the mountaineering bag that had been taken by the merman and said thoughtfully, “I’m a human. Have you heard of it?”
“…” Sayin, whose fighting skills crushed the interstellar, but whose history was always only a two-point score.
“Human? What’s that?” He was nonchalant, glanced at the tail that was being held by Yu Lin, and said placidly, “There are wild beasts outside. If you leave my place, you won’t survive for three days.”
Yu Lin was held on his tail. He turned his head to look at him, thought for a moment, and asked softly, “So?”
“So,” Sayin said placidly, “you’re staying.”
His tail lifted, swung in the water, and created a string of splashes. Then he leaned over, and his long and narrow silver eyes fell on the side of Yu Lin’s ear, and the tip of his nose was against Yu Lin’s cheek.
His curly hair was very long, and it was as slippery as seaweed. It fell on Yu Lin’s shoulder, and it was a cold patch.
He coaxed, “This is my place. Nothing dares to come and offend me. You can stay.”
After he finished, he let out a light laugh, suddenly came over, and bit Yu Lin on the face.
***
The moon hung in the sky at seven in the evening, a cold and bright patch in the sky.
The grass and trees under the tree were swaying, and the light and shadow were desolate. Sayin was leaning against a stone by the water, his entire body out of the water, and his gaze was moving with the person sitting on his tail.
The insect beast he had hunted in the evening had been casually thrown on the shore by him. The tender meat made the surrounding wild beasts restless, but they did not dare to act rashly due to the pressure of the royal family.
Sayin’s tail lifted slightly, and it drew an arc in the air. After a pause, it landed on Yu Lin’s fingers.
Leaving the water was not comfortable for a merman, but Sayin was not impatient.
He lifted his tail, and the tip of his tail gently swept over Yu Lin’s knuckles, and he asked casually, “Is it comfortable to touch?”
The merman’s tail was smooth and cold, even more comfortable than the best silk.
The other tribes had a lot of admiration for the mermen. Sayin smiled and let out a light hum. “I’ll allow you to…”
Yu Lin touched his tail, nodded, and said softly, “It’s comfortable. Can I go to the shore?”
“…” Sayin frowned.
The merman’s tail was sensitive and passionate, not only did it feel good, but it also had many tricks. Every year, it was number one on the partner’s favorite list.
Are humans so cold?
Sayin looked over with confusion. “You don’t like it?”
“No.” Yu Lin shook his head and gently touched his swinging tail. “I like it very much. It’s just that it’s too cold in the water at night. I’m a human. I’ll get sick from the cold.”
He sat on the merman’s tail, his cheeks were cold, his skin was pale, and his gaze was quiet, looking clean and fragile.
Sayin frowned. “Get sick… will you die?”
Mermen were warlike and liked to fight fiercely. It was common for them to die in a fight.
“…”
Sayin looked at Yu Lin, and his breathing suddenly stopped.
“I won’t die that easily.” Seeing the merman’s tail stand on end, Yu Lin was stunned for a moment and touched his tail fin. “But I can’t stay by the water for a long time.”
He explained, “Humans will feel uncomfortable when they are sick. They will have no strength and will not be able to hear you clearly. They will be much better after taking medicine. Only the most serious will die.”
When he spoke, his face was slightly red from the cold. Sayin had a cold face, and he frowned and held him in his arms.
The merman looked very cold, but his skin was warm, soft, and elastic.
He swung his tail, and awkwardly held the person in his arms, and swept all the fallen branches on the shore together.
“You can start a fire.” He turned his head and said in a low voice, “Light these things. If there are no more, I’ll go and find more. I know where to find these things. Is there anything else? I’ll raise you.”
His tone was cold, and his long and slender, cold knuckles rested on the side of Yu Lin’s waist, and he stroked them from time to time.
Yu Lin looked up. “You want to…” He looked at himself with hesitation. “You want to raise me?”
“En.” Sayin’s tone was annoyed, and his tail swung back and forth. “How can you not be cold?”
“I’m not cold like this.” Yu Lin bent down and picked up the firewood on the ground, and lit it by the tent.
He glanced at the beautiful merman with a cold aura under the moonlight, and after thinking for a moment, “If you want to raise me, I’ll live in the tent and stay with you on the shore. Is that okay?”
Although it was just a glance, Yu Lin was already sure that this fish was the person he was looking for.
Sayin looked at him, frowned and looked at the distant tent, and after a moment of struggle, his tail gently reached out, and he hooked the tent towards himself. “Okay.”
His expression did not change. “Stay with me.” The tent had already been hooked over by a huge force.
Yu Lin looked at the distance and found that it was just within his reach but not too close to the water.
“…” Yu Lin put down the firewood, thought for a moment, and couldn’t help but let out a laugh. “Okay, then…”
“…”
He turned his head and silently looked at a piece of tender raw meat that was handed to his lips.
Sayin held the meat, and half of his body was lying by the water, revealing his smooth and slender forearms. He raised his eyebrows and looked at him. “I almost forgot. I also have to feed you. Eat.”
Lin was silent for a moment and said softly, “I don’t eat raw food.”
Sayin: “…”
Troublesome.
