A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 53 The Mermaid's Heated Period
Hearing the beeping in his mind like a time bomb, Shen Tang wished he could rip the damn system out of his head and beat it up.

What kind of ridiculous task did they release?!

They're getting more and more difficult each time!
"Change the mission, I can't take this one." Shen Tang's forehead throbbed.

The system patiently explained, "Mermaids experience an extremely intense estrus cycle after reaching adulthood. This should be soothed by the host after mating with him. However, he has been suppressing it since their marriage. In recent months, Jialan's estrus cycle has become uncontrollable. Furthermore, due to the mental upheaval triggered during the last raid, his body was forced into estrus prematurely, and he is currently suffering greatly and urgently needs soothing."

[Now is the perfect opportunity, host! Don't miss this chance! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!]

Shen Tang's eyelids twitched violently. She suddenly felt that this damn system was like a brothel madam, enthusiastically introducing her beautiful top courtesan and luring her, a customer, to take advantage of her.

"Heh, that's because he looked down on the original owner and brought it on himself. Otherwise, given the original owner's wolfish nature, he would have taken care of him long ago. Your host and I wouldn't even be able to enter his house." Shen Tang said calmly, unmoved.

She frowned slightly, recalling the original plot. Jialan was different from the other male protagonists; he was an important male protagonist who only emerged in the later part of the story. He didn't appear much in the early part of the story, only mentioned that he returned to New Atlantis after the original owner's tragic death.

Years later, a coup d'état occurred in the deep sea, and Jialan was crowned the new Sea Emperor.

Legend has it that this sea god was powerful and tyrannical, and he abducted many beautiful females and imprisoned them in his palace. The female protagonist was one of the beautiful females he forcibly took. The plot that followed was also very melodramatic. In short, the harem male protagonist turned over a new leaf for the female protagonist.

Who would have thought that this licentious tyrant would be tormented by his heat cycle in his youth?

Shen Tang sighed inwardly, then curled her lip in disdain and said, "Doesn't he have a little lover in the shelter? I think her name is Gu Lian. He can go find that female to relieve his heat. What business is it of mine?"

[Jialan has not taken a liking to Gu Lian. He is still a virgin. Host, seize this opportunity. If you can win the heart of this young Sea Emperor, it will definitely be a powerful weapon.]

Shen Tang looked surprised. She thought that given the future Sea Emperor's promiscuity, the two of them would have already secretly slept together. She didn't expect him to still be a virgin.

But recalling Jia Lan's usual disdainful attitude towards her, Shen Tang's lips twitched slightly. If she dared to take advantage of her in this vulnerable state, that face-obsessed mermaid would definitely kill her once she woke up!
[Host, the countdown has 2 hours and 37 minutes remaining. The estimated travel time is one and a half hours. Please set off for the mission location immediately.]

The system's voice urged him on relentlessly in his mind.

Shen Tang couldn't block it even if she wanted to.

Although the mission was a bit tough, the reward was quite good. Shen Tang needed a set of self-defense equipment, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and head over.

Meanwhile, things were far from peaceful in Jialan's home. The sound of things breaking could be heard, the floor was a mess, and a trail of blood stretched all the way to the bathroom.

Pfft!
A sound of water breaking rang out.

The boy fell into the bathtub filled with water, and the blood flowing from his arm wound quickly stained the bathtub light red.

He was curled up, his face pale, his tightly furrowed brows concealing his pain, and a faint black aura swirled around him.

Damn it, he's about to lose control of his heat.

Since returning from the contaminated area, Jialan has locked herself in her room and has hardly left the house in recent days, refusing to see any outsiders.

That fat woman tried to harass him several times, it was so annoying.

He would rather cut his hand to stay sober than beg her.

Suddenly, Jialan heard the sound of the door opening outside. He opened his deep blue eyes, thinking that the fat woman had come again, but when he checked the security camera at the door, he found that the person who came was Gu Lian.

The boy's face was cold, and he himself was unaware of the fleeting sense of disappointment that crossed his mind.

How did the female get in?
Jia Lan suddenly remembered that he wanted to use Gu Lian to leave the polluted area, so he gave her the key to his room. His expression turned somewhat grim... He hadn't expected it to happen at this particular time; he absolutely couldn't let anyone see him in this disheveled state. He got out of the bathtub and went to the living room.

Gu Lian turned around and saw the young man coming over. A gentle smile appeared on her face, but when she saw his disheveled appearance, she pursed her lips and asked anxiously, "A-Lan, are you feeling unwell?"

She stepped forward to take his hand, but Jia Lan shoved her away with such force that she almost fell to the ground. Shocked and saddened, she looked at the indifferent-faced boy.

Jialan, "I told you not to bother me these next few days, what are you doing here?"

"I just thought you'd only been back from the battlefield a few days ago, and I hadn't had any emotional support yet, so I wanted to come and help you." Gu Lian looked at him pitifully, her eyes filled with concern, but she was secretly delighted. The skin she had just touched was burning hot, a stark contrast to the cool body temperature of a mermaid on a normal day.

Just as she expected, Jialan entered her heat cycle ahead of schedule.

Male animals are most vulnerable during their mating season and crave comfort from females.

Whether we can win him over depends on today!

Gu Lian feigned surprise, her face softening with tenderness and adoration, "Has your heat come early?"

"..."

"By the way, I came here today to tell you that I have accumulated enough redemption points and I can leave the polluted land tomorrow." Gu Lian looked like she was thinking of him and coaxed him gently, "As long as you sleep with me tonight, I can apply to the Empire to take you with me."

"Sleep with you?" Jia Lan's gaze fell on her, a mocking smile playing on her lips. "You think you're worthy? You're like a toad trying to eat swan meat. In the past, I wouldn't even bother to look at someone as third-rate as you."

"What, what did you say?" Gu Lian's expression suddenly froze, her face burning as if she had been slapped.

The once gentle boy now looked at her with an unfamiliar coldness. "You really think I, Your Highness, would even look at you? I feel utterly disgusted just from you touching me."

These ugly and hypocritical females are not even worth a hair on his head, yet they still want to lust after him.
Gu Lian's face turned ashen. She didn't want to believe his disgusted tone, but even she, who was usually so dense, realized that the man's previous gentleness was all an act. He only wanted to use her to leave the polluted area and never intended to be with her!
Gu Lian saw the boy's eyes suddenly turn a beautiful purplish-red and sensed something was wrong, so she turned and ran.

But her feet seemed nailed to the ground. Looking into those beautiful eyes, her soul seemed to be sucked in. Her eyes were empty, and she subconsciously opened the terminal to submit the application list.

But the next second, the boy swayed and fell heavily to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, that captivating power vanished.

Gu Lian hurriedly came to her senses and suddenly realized that what she had just experienced was the legendary mermaid's mental illusion, and she felt even more frightened and terrified.

The fact that Jialan could cast illusions on her so easily means that this was definitely not the first time she had used it!

These past few days, she's been completely fooled by this mermaid!
Gu Lian was filled with rage. She looked at the kneeling boy with resentment and sneered, "Heh, if you don't want to submit to me, then you can forget about leaving this place."

"Without me, you won't make it through the night."

After saying that, Gu Lian turned and left. She had heard how intense and terrifying a mermaid's mating season was, and that without the comfort of a female, they were very likely to die in agony!
Jialan had no choice but to obediently beg her!
The thought of the noble mermaid prince kneeling at her feet, begging for mercy and being wantonly humiliated by her filled Gu Lian with a sense of satisfaction at getting revenge, and she let out a hearty laugh.

"Hahahaha... Jialan, I'm waiting for you to kneel down and beg me like a dog tonight!"

The door closed again, plunging the room into darkness. The boy's face was pale, and strands of hair falling across his forehead obscured his eyes, making them appear indistinct.

He leaned against the wall to get up, intending to rummage through the drawer for inhibitors, but the next second, everything went black and he fell to the ground.
