24. fell for a trap

By the time Lu Meng realized they had fallen into a trap, it was already too late. Merpeople had already surrounded his battleship, and he only had time to issue one last command, ordering all combat troops to retreat entirely. At the side of his battleship was a hole punctured by the tails of Merpeople.

Without hesitation, Lu Meng abandoned the submarine and used cryo-weaponry to slice a wound down a Merperson’s tail.

Damn it! The Merfolk of the deep sea had always reigned over this area and never invaded humankind. The only exception was already history dating back over twenty years ago. The Marshal from that year had come to an agreement with the Merfolk; They would maintain good relations for eternity. As such, Lu Meng had absolutely no experience when it came to fighting Merfolk.

He was only aware that their singing voices could force a person into their heat or a rut, regardless of the number of inhibitors they had used. However, as a condition of the peace treaty, the Merfolk had revealed a weakness of theirs to humans; The pheromones of humans was something they could not tolerate.

Still, this was not entirely a weakness. Lu Meng forced a laugh. When under the control of pheromones, their fighting strength would be directly halved, and that was for the humans with excellent self-control.

The singing voices of the Merfolk rang out, Lu Meng felt the lust immediately sweep over him and engulf his body, it nearly drove him insane. He couldn’t think of anything other than Li Ze’s face… But this wouldn’t do, he couldn’t die like this. He hadn’t even heard Li Ze’s answer yet, neither had he verbally confessed his feelings. Lu Meng finally clutched onto a thread of sobriety in the ocean of lust and extracted a sharp blade, slicing it down his arm. The stench of blood and pheromones seeped into the surrounding waters, and it was now turn for the Merpeopl to become severely indisposed…

Suddenly, a more powerful singing voice pacified the restless Merfolk.

In his haze, Lu Meng saw a Merperson haul him over his shoulder with an air of repulsion.

Fuck, to be carried this way… Lu Meng wanted to puke.
