The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?
Chapter 51 Golden Honey Wine

Chapter 51: Chapter 51 Golden Honey Wine

"What benefits can you offer me?"

Liu Zheng asked unflinchingly.

"I have, nothing at all."

The mermaid’s voice was filled with sorrow.

More blood tears streamed down from her lifeless eyes.

Liu Zheng looked at her belly, indeed, there was life undulating within.

"I’m sorry, I can’t help you."

His heart was as hard as iron.

"Then at least, please save its soul."

The mermaid said after a moment of silence.

"Soul?"

"I feel it, the Heart of the Ocean, absorbing the soul of my child, taking it back to the sea."

The mermaid spoke intermittently.

"That I can do."

Liu Zheng nodded.

In this way, he could trigger the full effect of the Heart of the Ocean, and it wouldn’t be all for naught.

"Thank you, may the mother of the ocean bless you, kind human."

The mermaid, turned into a flesh puppet, suddenly revealed a terrifying smile.

She suddenly ripped open her own belly with her right hand, and the mermaid fetus transformed into a mass of seawater, rushing towards Liu Zheng’s chest.

The incident happened so suddenly, even White Feather Chicken couldn’t prevent it.

The seawater drenched the Heart of the Ocean and was immediately absorbed by it, emitting a deep blue glow.

"Name: Heart of the Ocean (Enhanced)"

"Type: Equipment"

"Quality: Fine"

"Effect One: Increases movement speed in water by 50%, allows free breathing underwater."

"Effect Two: Healing speed in water is 100% faster, damage taken in water is reduced by 50%."

"Note: The premature child who left its mother’s embrace, can it return to the arms of another mother?"

"Can it be brought out of the instance: Yes"

Liu Zheng heaved a sigh silently as he looked at the item’s note.

He would probably not go to the seaside.

Even if he had the chance, he might not release the soul of the mermaid’s child back into the ocean.

With the current effects of the "Heart of the Ocean," Liu was practically immortal in water.

"Bastard, what have you done?!"

White Feather Chicken’s shrill voice rang out.

"I know nothing about it."

He didn’t explain, just shook his head.

"Forget about this brat for now. If you don’t finish up, this fish is going to die."

Niu Ma interrupted White Feather Chicken’s questioning.

After releasing her child’s soul, the mermaid’s life force visibly dissipated.

"I’ll deal with you later."

White Feather Chicken said bitterly.

It quickly sewed up the mermaid’s abdomen, then continued to cut flesh and break bones, adjusting her body to the size of the mermaid princess.

Then, White Feather Chicken took a deep breath, pinched the chef’s knife, and lightly slashed on the skin of the mermaid princess.

As the fish skin parted and seawater threatened to spill out, it stuffed the mermaid into the skin and sewed it back together.

This whole series of actions took less than a second; Liu Zheng only felt a blur before his eyes, and everything was done.

"Cluck cluck cluck~"

White Feather Chicken wiped the sweat off its brow, showing a self-satisfied smile.

This method of "peeling and stuffing" had been passed down from the founding of Bloody Restaurant but was only achievable by the first Head Chef and it.

This was also an important reason for White Feather Chicken’s stable status.

However, the process was not over yet.

It paced over to a safe, took out a key to open it, and retrieved a piece of linen cloth.

The cloth was about two palms long, appearing to be cut from a larger piece.

It was covered with irregular stains and imprints similar to body contours.

White Feather Chicken scraped off some greasy substance with Gluttony, then returned it to the safe.

It went back to the mermaid and began spreading the grease from Gluttony over her body.

Oddly enough, the little bit of grease seemed as though it would never run out.

The mermaid’s body was quickly smeared evenly.

Then, all of the greasy substance was absorbed by the mermaid’s body, the incisions healed completely, leaving not a single scar.

Liu Zheng gazed at her in a daze.

He clearly knew that what was before him was merely a constructed thing, yet it felt exactly like that real mermaid princess.

"Enough, send it over to the front."

After placing a few slices of lemon on the mermaid, White Feather Chicken commanded.

Four kitchen staff silently came over, lifted the mermaid, and walked towards the exit of the kitchen.

Liu Zheng did not watch, nor did he think about the fate she would face.

"Now it’s your turn, human."

White Feather Chicken walked up to him.

It was clearly looking up at Liu Zheng, but Liu Zheng felt as if he was being stared down upon by a ferocious beast.

"You almost ruined the ritual, and I suspect that it was you who let that mermaid princess go."

"This necklace, was it a thank-you gift from her?"

White Feather Chicken said as he looked at the pendant hanging on Liu Zheng’s chest.

"Without me, you wouldn’t even have this fish skin."

Liu Zheng did not offer much of an explanation.

White Feather Chicken was obviously a smart person, and smart people only need to understand the consequences.

"So I should thank you?"

White Feather Chicken said coldly.

The gluttonous knives were rotating with a chilling edge, just like its ravenous gaze.

"Hey, don’t accuse people without evidence."

Niu Ma squeezed over, separating man and chicken.

"You didn’t see the scene at that time; Garcia was about to leave. If it wasn’t for my men threatening to take him down with us, that fish would’ve already been sold to the black market by now."

"If that big shot found out that his reserved delicacy was snatched up by the black market, you’d be plucked clean of your feathers."

He said seriously.

"Are you defending your people?"

White Feather Chicken looked at Niu Ma with a cold and threatening gaze.

"If the boss doesn’t protect his own, who would acknowledge him as the boss. Besides, it’s not entirely this kid’s fault. Don’t forget, it was him who helped you vent your anger."

Hearing Niu Ma’s last words, the blood-engorged comb of White Feather Chicken slightly deflated a bit.

"A death penalty can be spared, but punishment is unavoidable. For this matter, you must give me an explanation."

It said.

"Sure thing, sure thing. As long as you don’t kill him, any kind of punishment will do."

Niu Ma said with a grin, stepping aside.

"Do you accept the punishment?"

White Feather Chicken asked Liu Zheng.

"I took the item, I admit to that."

He responded.

"Sharp-tongued, your tongue would surely taste delicious in a stew."

White Feather Chicken snorted.

"However, one thing at a time, the item I promised you, take it first. Salmon, go pour a bowl of Golden Honey Wine."

It called out.

"Got it, meow."

San Huamao hopped along and quickly returned with a bowl.

The bowl was a white porcelain bowl, filled with a bowl of golden, amber-like liquid.

"Name: Golden Honey Wine (Replica)"

"Type: Item"

"Quality: Fine"

"Effect: Restores 50% of lost Rationality Points and increases rationality point limit by 10 (after increase, the limit cannot exceed 100 points)."

"Note: A soulless inferior replica, it can’t even take you faster than light across the universe!"

"Can be taken out of the instance: Yes"

Liu Zheng held the bowl of wine and drank it in one gulp.

The taste was not unpleasant; it was somewhat similar to a honey fermented drink called "Kawas" that he had tried.

But what made Liu Zheng most comfortable was the sensation of the liquid flowing through his body.

He felt like a dirty carpet that had been thoroughly washed clean with a high-pressure water gun.

"Does it feel good?"

White Feather Chicken asked unexpectedly.

"Good."

Liu Zheng replied subconsciously.

"Your time of comfort is over; now, you must suffer."

White Feather Chicken suddenly flew up, its two claws piercing through his collarbones like iron hooks.
