Chapter 300 Tonight, I want to see you...

"this--"

Jiang Xinli glanced around and suddenly gasped.

The huge, silvery-white deck was stained crimson with blood.

The once densely packed crowd was now mostly dead or injured.

"Lili, don't look." Sheng Tianze reached out and covered her eyes.

"Aze, something's not right." Jiang Xinli took a deep breath, reached out and pried open one of his fingers, peering through the gap between them.

"The hands and feet of those corpses are gone." A hint of suspicion flashed in Yuehua's silver eyes.

Ye Kuo frowned. "During the fight just now, I didn't see who did it."

Hua Xi was shocked: "Those deep-sea monsters that attacked us all had hands and feet."

“It’s not this—” Jiang Xinli frowned, “Did you see those corpses with specks of green light drifting toward a certain spot on the warship?”

"Green light?" Several beastmen looked around the deck and shook their heads in unison. "Mistress, there is none."

Jiang Xinli was taken aback. "Could it be... energy?"

She had seen those scattered green lights before.

This is the green light she emitted when she drew energy from those plants.

Could it be that only she can see this kind of energy?
"Did you check the layout just now? Where is that?" Jiang Xinli pointed her finger in the direction of the green light gathering.

Ye Kuo looked up. "Master, it's the warship's power room."

"Power station?" Jiang Xinli frowned.

Looking around, Lancer was directing his knights to clean up the scene.

The young knights were putting the corpses into their spatial rings.

The bodies on the deck were quickly cleared away.

Under the scorching sun, the bloodstains on the deck quickly dried, turning dark red.

The air was filled with the smells of rust and fish, mixed with the salty, fishy odor of the sea breeze.

Jiang Xinli couldn't help but let out a soft "yue~".

Sheng Tianze frowned, erected a barrier, and released cedar pheromones to envelop her body.

"By the way, did you find anything out just now?" Jiang Xinli asked.

Ye Kuo said, "Mistress, apart from the Royal Knights of the Deep Sea, the rest of the crew on the warship are all logistics personnel."

"In addition, no conventional power source was found."

Jiang Xinli: "What is conventional power energy?"

Sheng Tianze: "Lili, in interstellar space, we usually use star stones with special functions as the power source for spaceships or warships. But we don't have any here."

"Moreover, none of their energy weapons were used just now," Ye Kuo said, turning his head to glance at the cluster of cannons on the warship.

"Perhaps it's because they lack some kind of special energy?" Jiang Xinli thought of the energy sword in Lancer's hand, and a bold conjecture popped into her mind.

Sheng Tianze frowned. "Lili, what do you mean?"

"It's similar to how we have a certain kind of energy. It might only appear because of death, and then this energy is collected in a power room."

"The energy in your body?" Hua Xi scratched his head. "Little Pear, that's too abstract."

"Maybe I'm overthinking it," Jiang Xinli said with a smile.

"Lord Jiang." Mo Lin and the others approached with solemn expressions.

Frosthorn said, "This battle was very strange. The dead orcs and females were wiped out in entire families."

"Total wipeout?" Jiang Xinli was shocked.

In the interstellar beast world, the death of a male will have some impact on the mental power of a female.

Once the female dies, it is difficult for the male orc to survive alone.

However, it's unlikely that the death of a female would immediately result in the death of a male beastman. "Yes," Mo Lin nodded, "I've roughly counted the number of deaths, and it's estimated to be around half."

"Thank goodness we had Lancer and the others." Xuexi said with lingering fear. "But speaking of which, they are really amazing."

“Princess—” Bai Ziren coughed lightly, his tone laced with sarcasm.

Xuexi realized what was happening and quickly brought out some water. "Ha, no matter how powerful they are, they're not as powerful as my beastmen."

“Little Pear Pear—” Hua Xi grabbed Jiang Xinli’s hand and pressed it against her face, looking aggrieved.

Jiang Xinli asked worriedly, "What happened to the little peacock? Is it injured?"

As soon as the battle ended, Sheng Tianze checked on the group.

With Lancer and his knightly order charging outside, they only suffered minor injuries.

The mental riot value is slightly high, but within an acceptable range.

“No, it’s just that you were staring at that Lancer just now—” Hua Xi’s ahoge drooped down.

"Huh?" Jiang Xinli pointed to herself. "Do I?"

Ye Kuo nodded, "Yes, Mistress, your eyes are practically wide open."

"Cough cough—" Jiang Xinli coughed lightly a few times, "I just felt that when they collectively released sonic waves to attack those mutated beasts, they looked a lot like anime characters from ancient Earth."

Jiang Xinli had previously explained the term "anime" to them.

The first cartoon character they recognized was the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

So, when it came to anime, Hua Xi subconsciously glanced at Sheng Tianze and asked, "Little Pear, is it really just out of curiosity?"

"Of course." Jiang Xinli smiled. "Alright, little peacock, stop being so jealous."

“Little silly pear—” Xuan Ying appeared out of nowhere and reached out to tug at Jiang Xinli’s rabbit ears. “If you don’t want your eyes anymore, I can keep them for you.”

"Xiaoying, where have you been?" Jiang Xinli frowned when she saw that Xuanying was soaking wet and smelled of blood.

"I went to the sea." Xuan Ying lazily pointed to the sea, then waved his finger lightly, summoning a mist of water to clean all the dirt off his body. Then he stretched out his arm and pulled her into his arms.

"Heh—" He snorted coldly, leaned down and grabbed her chin, "Silly girl, how come you didn't even notice your husband was gone for so long?!"

"You don't care about your husband at all! You should be punished..." he said, gently biting her lips.

Jiang Xinli blinked:

"I noticed, but I know you're incredibly resourceful and blessed by heaven. Everything will be alright."

Hearing her words, Xuan Ying frowned and reached out to feel her forehead. "Do you have a fever?"

Jiang Xinli: "No."

"Miss Xinli." After cleaning the deck, Lancer took a long stride and walked gracefully toward her.

He bowed slightly to Jiang Xinli, "The cabin door has been opened smoothly. I will escort you back to your room to rest."

Jiang Xinli asked, "May I ask if all the deep-sea polluted areas we encountered before reaching the deep-sea territory were like this?"

Lancer nodded. "Yes."

"However, Miss Xinli, don't worry. We have just received instructions that the warship will submerge to the seabed for a period of time in the next few days and take another fast and covert route."

"We expect to reach the deep-sea territory in as little as three days."

Jiang Xinli was shocked, "3 days?!"

“Yes, Miss Xinli.” Lancer smiled knowingly. “Then you will be able to meet our esteemed Shark Prince and Mermaid Prince ahead of time.”

"Buzz—" The quantum computer vibrated.

Bai Yao: Little Pear, I've arrived at Ocean Star too.

Bai Yao: I want to see you tonight, is that okay?
