MTL - The Fallen Merman-Chapter 11
The mermaid's self-healing mechanism is very unique. The whole thing is rolled into a translucent ball, which can roll smoothly on the ground until it finds a water source, and then plunges into the bottom of the water, burying itself with sand. Dormant for a long time and slowly recover to a completely normal body. If you die due to severe injuries during the dormancy process, it will be like a whale falling into the sand, and the corpse will nourish the creatures in a sea area.
This self-healing mechanism is a mermaid's associated ability "Rupert's Tears". It is passively activated when it is strongly stimulated by the outside world or is on the verge of death. In the fish ball state, others cannot cause any damage to him.
But Bai Chunian knew the weakness of this companion ability. It could be forcibly awakened. He only needed to hit the tip of his exposed tail hard, or cut off the end of his fish tail directly. This indestructible protection mechanism would be destroyed. Forced termination.
However, this violent awakening method is extremely traumatic to the mermaid, and it is easy to cause psychological disorders and mental disorders.
Bai Chunian squeezed the tip of the mermaid's tail lightly, it was a little dry, he took some water from the water dispenser to wet Rimbaud's tail, and squeezed again.
I don’t know if Rimbaud’s body can take it out of the water for too long. Even if he is wrapped in a moisturizing bandage, it will not be too comfortable to stay on land for 48 hours.
Lu Yan and Bi Lanxing went to the three members of Feng Xiaoxiao and Xiaoxi to search for supplies. In the quiet dance hall, only Bai Chunian was breathing alone. He patiently released a pheromone to appease and stroked the ball of Rimbaud. , his fingertips lightly pinched the tip of his shivering tail.
The mermaid in his arms finally reacted a little, and the tail wrapped around him loosened a bit, but it trembled so much that the tip of his tail shrank for fear of being hurt again.
"Okay, you open it." Bai Chunian released a higher concentration of soothing pheromones, half-coaxing and half-forced to peel off Lan Bo's tail from his body.
Rimbaud seemed even more resistant, and even showed his sharp canine teeth and growled, making a harsh high-decibel noise.
He thought for a long time how to explain to Rimbaud that this was just an exam. Pain and injury were all tactile transmissions simulated by the system. These terms were too difficult to understand, and Rimbaud could not understand them.
Then only the curve can save the country.
Bai Chunian hugged him and touched his blond hair lightly with his lips: "Do you know that the doctor uses artificial respiration to save people in an emergency?"
Lan Bo's eyes moved stiffly, looking weakly at Bai Chunian.
Bai Chunian lowered his head, pressed his lips on Lan Bo's thin lips, and blew lightly.
"Okay, you are alive." Bai Chunian rolled his eyes, "Does your body feel more comfortable?"
Rimbaud's eyelids were half-open, and the sapphire eyeballs flickered weakly, and seemed to be shining.
Bai Chunian couldn't help looking at him a few more times and ruffled his hair: "Get up, don't pretend to be dead."
Rimbaud slowly got up, looked at his hands, and then at the bullet holes in his collarbone that had stopped bleeding and healed. He was puzzled for a long time, and suddenly saw that the blue scales on his buttocks were bald, and his snow-white cheeks changed. It turned red, grabbed the scales from Bai Chunian's hands, dipped a little saliva and stuck them back on his buttocks piece by piece.
Bai Chunian held the remaining pieces in his hands and prevented him from taking them, and leaned against the wall to tease: "I want it."
Rimbaud pursed his lips, raised his hand to cover his flushed cheeks, and fled along the steel seat beam like lightning.
Bai Chunian leaned his head against the wall and laughed. He suddenly restrained his smile. He piled the three or four blue translucent fish scales left in his hand in order of size, picked up a piece of paper, wrapped them, and folded them together. Appropriate square, sniffed close to the tip of the nose, and then silently put it into the left breast pocket for preservation.
The two teams were wiped out at once, and the kill number on Lu Yan's shirt chest had jumped to "10". After the fight, they confiscated 8 more detonators, and everyone's safety time increased by another two hours. , Counting the previous time, there was a total of more than four hours of safe time, and the five recovery injections in the body pocket were also taken away.
Bai Chunian sat alone in the empty dance hall, facing the dozens of empty stair steps, and bored around with the pistol hanging from the tip of his index finger.
Suddenly there was another alpha in the room, Bai Chunian came back to his senses: "Well"
Bi Lanxing sat beside him and pushed a recovery injection to Bai Chunian's hand: "The two of them are in the cafeteria on the third floor."
Bai Chunian hummed again.
Bi Lanxing asked calmly, "You were called by Uncle Jin to help Lu Yan take the exam."
"Nonsense, I'm here to mix things up." Bai Chunian lit a cigarette.
It doesn't take too much time to talk to smart people, and Bi Lanxing doesn't need Bai Chunian to answer too clearly, and continued: "You are Uncle Jin's person, you must be a trustworthy senior, I want to know about you and Lan Bo. How long have you known each other?"
Bai Chunian spit out two circular smoke rings towards Bi Lanxing: "Three years, six months, and five days."
Bi Lanxing frowned, fanned the smoke ring in front of him, thought for a moment, and said softly, "Three years ago, I followed my father's army field training, and the middle organization visited a biochemical weapons warehouse called the 109 Research Institute. When I was young and didn’t know how to run around, I fell behind. There were a few people in white coats who came to us as introducers. I thought that if I followed the people in white coats, I could find the team, but I accidentally followed them into a laboratory. ."
"When no one found me, I drilled and ran around in the laboratory to play. Later, I saw a ball soaked in the incubator in the laboratory. Like the ball that Rimbaud had just rolled, there was a tail exposed. outside."
Bai Chunian's face darkened, and he asked casually, "And then."
"They cut off the tail of the ball." Bi Lanxing raised his hand and gestured, "I was really frightened when I cut it off so long. I accidentally touched something and was caught by the researcher inside. Outside the lab, but you can hear the creature screaming along the way."
