Lou Cen sent Xue Ling home in the evening, and Xue Ling snuck out of the house that night.

The Duke's Palace was silent in the middle of the night. Xue Ling had the system shield him from the Duke's Palace's security and monitoring, and ran out without anyone noticing him.

For some things, once he made the decision to do it, he did not want to procrastinate in case something else happened that was not within his control.

The underground city was always open, and there were actually more people there at night. Xue Ling had the system hide him from view. He could not let anyone know that he had been here, or leave even the slightest clue of his presence.

The laboratory did not carry out any experiments at night. When Xue Ling stepped into the lab, the scans provided by the system showed that there were not many people inside. Xue Ling ordered the system to invade the research lab's system and turn on the state of emergency, sending messages to all of the researchers' nano-computers and request for them to rush to the Research Laboratory immediately.

The ocean – over a thousand miles away from its emperor – suddenly became turbulent at this moment, waves surging restlessly as an unknown force seemed to take control over the water, startling awake quite a few deep-sea merfolk.

This familiar fluctuation brought tears to many merfolk's eyes. It was a fluctuation that couldn't possibly be more familiar to them. Over a decade ago, before their king left them, the ocean had also roared like this. That time, the ocean had wanted to protect their emperor, but this time it was their ruler who was controlling the ocean.

The sea water constantly flowed **, and following Xue Ling's will, it poured into the research laboratory's underground rooms.

Countless instruments and equipment were all submerged in water. Researchers all received urgent summons, and everyone rushed to the laboratory's rooms.

They were all in a panic, because the research laboratory's central control system was completely paralyzed. They could not control the system to see the situation across the entire laboratory, and there were still patients waiting to be transformed into merfolk, and artificial merfolk who had already been operated on in the facilities. If any problems occurred here, then the link between them and the entire underground city would be broken, and a lot of problems would arise.

Meanwhile, Lou Cen was startled awake from his sleep.

He had gone to bed particularly early today, and slept particularly deeply. Perhaps it was precisely because of this that everything in his dream had seemed so real, real to the point where his entire back was drenched in cold sweat, and his brain was thrown into confusion.

There had been no sound in his dream. Everything was so quiet that he could not see anything but a merperson lying on a cold research table.

That merperson looked exactly like his little merman, but Lou Cen knew deep in his heart that this was not the little merman that he knew.

Nevertheless, he still could not accept that a person who looked exactly the same as his merman suffering that kind of cruel treatment. His scales had been cut off and torn off over and over again, and his entire fishtail was bloody; his flesh and blood were the psychopathic researchers' study materials, and they came to collect some every few days. They would use a scalpel and joke around as they cut his flesh from his body.
