Chapter 343 Some Speculations

"If it weren't for the young lady's lightning-fast reaction, we probably would have been killed by these jellyfish long ago."

When Guai Guai talked about this, she shrank her neck in fear.

"In this dangerous situation, the young woman didn't hesitate to take a triangular cube from her flat bag and press it directly into the raft. Instantly, a strange shield formed around us and the raft, protecting us firmly and isolating us from the jellyfish's attacks."

"However, the jellyfish didn't seem to be giving up. Like tireless warriors, they continued their frantic attacks. While the young lady was nervously maintaining the cover, she also quickly pulled out a bunch of colorful, candy-like things from the bag."

"While maintaining the protective shield against the jellyfish's attacks, the young lady anxiously told me that whenever she lost something, I should quickly give her one."

"Then I saw the candy in the girl's hand slowly shrink and disappear, as if someone had eaten it. Every time it disappeared, I would put one back on. But actually, I wanted to try it, but the girl said I couldn't eat it, just like dogs can't eat chocolate."

As she spoke, a look of regret appeared on her face.

Obviously, she knew very well that she couldn't eat chocolate, so she couldn't try what the candy tasted like.

"Was that candy colorful, unwrapped, and shiny?"

After hearing Guai Guai's description, Ling Ye asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, yes! Brother, have you seen it before?"

Guai Guai looked at Ling Ye with a surprised expression and asked with some curiosity.

Just then, Lingye suddenly realized a problem—although he knew Guaiguai's name and her master's name, he had forgotten to introduce himself.

Fortunately, Guai Guai's mind was still that of a simple little dog, and it didn't realize that something was wrong.

"um, yes."

Lingye replied with a smile.

"By the way, you can call me Lingye. See if that's right."

Then, as if remembering something, he quickly added.

As she spoke, Lingye slowly reached into the small pouch at her waist, fumbled around for a while, and then carefully pulled out a crystal.

The crystal emitted a faint, pale yellow light, which appeared particularly dazzling in the dark.

This crystal is the currency used by the alien race.

"Wow! This is it! Lingye, you have it too! (?′▽｀)??"

The little one's face was full of surprise.

"um, yes."

Seeing this, Ling Ye couldn't help but smile and responded softly.

Then, he carefully put the crystal back into his pouch. This yellow alien currency could buy a lot of things, and he couldn't afford to lose it.

Now, based on the current situation and the series of events Lingye has experienced, he has a general understanding of everything that has happened.

It is likely that after escaping, Lin Xiyue was in this massive underground stronghold, trying to find a way out.

As she was groping around, she inadvertently saw Guai Guai, who was being locked up and subjected to inhumane research.

Judging from all indications, Guai Guai was clearly subjected to cruel human experiments and forced to merge with her owner, thus becoming what she is now.

Lin Xiyue must have discovered information about Guai Guai after observing her, and learned about Guai Guai's ordeal.

So she simply defeated or killed these inhuman researchers or aliens, and then rescued the girl.

Not only that, Lin Xiyue also conveniently stored the obedient master, who might be some kind of soul, inside that mysterious sphere.

Immediately afterwards, Meros led Lingye to this place.

However, because Melos failed to find Lin Xiyue, their arrival triggered a fierce conflict—a thrilling battle with Fei Bo.

This fierce battle not only plunged the entire stronghold into chaos, but also caused the already intricate underground stronghold to begin to collapse due to the fighting.

Those jellyfish must be a small family; they know the way around here like the back of their hand.

When they discovered that Lin Xiyue and the others had entered the area, they launched a fierce attack on them without hesitation, seemingly wanting to capture them again.

Faced with the jellyfish attack, Lin Xiyue demonstrated extraordinary coping skills.

She quickly took out what she thought was the item she had drawn, instantly creating a sturdy protective shield that tightly protected herself and Guai Guai within it.

However, maintaining this protective shield requires a large amount of energy, and Lin Xiyue's energy is obviously limited.

To ensure the shield remained effective, Lin Xiyue had to resort to an extreme method—constantly absorbing the currency formed by those energy crystals to recharge the shield.

The currencies shimmered faintly in her hands as they were continuously drawn into the protective shield, providing it with the necessary energy.

Just as Lin Xiyue was struggling to maintain the protective shield, the situation outside also changed.

Perhaps because Melos and Fibo went to the surface, they took the jellyfish with them, causing them to gradually give up their attacks on Lin Xiyue and the others.

Finally, as if receiving some kind of instruction, the jellyfish turned around and left, following Fei Bo away from this place, without continuing to attack Lin Xiyue and the others.

However, Lin Xiyue did not feel relieved.

Due to the repeated depletion and recharging in a short period of time, her body had been under tremendous pressure. When the jellyfish finally drifted away, she could no longer hold on, her vision went black, and she collapsed to the ground.

"And then you just kept drifting like that until you bumped into me?"

After sorting everything out in her mind, Lingye finally asked Guaiguai a question.

"I think so."

However, before he could answer obediently, a clear female voice rang out first.

Upon hearing this, Ling Ye turned his head sharply and saw a girl smiling at him.

"you're awake?!"

Lingye and Guaiguai shouted almost in unison.

"Wow! Sister, you're really awake!"

The little one squealed excitedly.

Ling Ye and Guai Guai's gazes fell simultaneously on where Lin Xiyue was sitting, and then both of them showed a look of surprise.

Lin Xiyue was sitting cross-legged on the raft, her brows furrowed slightly, as if she was feeling unwell, and she was gently rubbing her forehead.

"Well, I'm awake."

Lin Xiyue's voice was still a little weak, but her tone was very calm.

How are you feeling now? Is there anything that's bothering you?

Seeing this, Lingye quickly asked with concern.

"I'm okay now, but my head still hurts a little."

Lin Xiyue shook her head and said.

"Eat some of this to replenish your sugar levels; it might make you feel better."

Ling Ye breathed a slight sigh of relief after hearing this, then took out a real candy from his pocket, handed it to Lin Xiyue, and said.
