Laughing, the host always wants to escape

"Oh? What do you want? I can give it to you." Solor straightened himself and looked up at him.

"Don't worry. It seems that you are very confident that you can beat him. If you lose in the end, I will lose more than I gain." Tang Cuo tilted his head. "Are you right?"

"I have my own way, and what you want to do is not difficult. Even if you fail, he will not doubt you."

"Oh?"

"I want you to take him away from the Mandragora Sea for a while in half a month, so that I have enough time to break free from this soul-locking cave. That's all." Solor hooked his finger.

"I need to think about it again..." Tangcuo did not reject him immediately.

"Of course, please help yourself."

"I need to go back and think about it. If I stay here too long, Sals will get suspicious."

"Hongluo, send our lovely humans back." Solor nodded and raised his hand to signal.

"No need, I can go back by myself." After saying that, Tang Cuo turned around and left the Soul-Locking Cave.

Looking at his departing back, Hong Luo was a little puzzled, "Aren't you afraid that he will tell Sals?"

"Since he is here, it means he doesn't like Sals very much, otherwise he wouldn't even give me the chance to meet me. After all, he is a human being, and greed is his nature." A faint light flashed in Solor's eyes.

On the other side, Tangcuo was walking alone on the way back, and the words that Solor had just said echoed in his mind.

"Xiao Ye, Solor seems very confident in his words. If I tell Sals about this, will it affect the development of the subsequent plot?"

[Depending on the completion of the side story, the host cannot tell the attacker about this for the time being, because Solor and Sals have a fight in this plane that cannot be erased.]

"You mean, the remaining 10% of completion means that Sorol and I will work together to help him escape?"

[My guess is this]

"Okay, I roughly understand it." Tangcuo was a little helpless, "Xiaoye, use the teleportation talisman, I want to go back."

[OK, processing host request, successfully used]

Tangcuo looked at the changing scenery in front of him, walked forward a few steps, and sat on the golden mountain beside him. "Will Sals be in danger?"

[The result of the fight is that the attacker wins, but the system has no way of knowing whether or not he survives, or how long he survives, because you will have completed the mission and left at about the same time.]

Tangcuo didn't say anything else, but silently looked at the shell fortress piled up on the side, then clasped his hands and rested them behind his head.

Time passed little by little, Tangcuo gradually closed his eyes and fell asleep.

While he was sleeping, a hand slowly lifted him up. The feeling of his body hanging in the air woke him up instantly. Tang Cuo rubbed his sleepy eyes.

"Wang...you're back?" His voice was soft, like a seductive kitten, with a hint of nasality.

Sals reached out and pulled him in, scratching the tip of his nose, "Well, it must be boring to be alone, I'll take you out tomorrow."

"Okay." Tang Cuo moved closer to his body, touched his cheek to his chest, and rubbed it gently a few times.

"Baby..." Sals' voice became hoarse and full of lust.

Ok?

Where did you learn this name from?

"king……"

"It seems that humans would use this name to address their loved ones, right?"

"Yes, the word 'baby' means treasure in human language. It is very valuable and worth cherishing." Tangcuo explained to him patiently.

"Then you will call me that from now on? Okay?" Sals pinched his earlobe with his fingers, causing his whole body to tremble.

"If I call you that? Would it be...disrespectful to you?" Tang Cuo's cheeks blushed slightly.

"You are my love, we exist on an equal footing, you rely on me, and I enjoy your reliance on you." Sals chuckled, "Of course, if you are not used to it now, you can call me that after we get married."

"marriage?"

"Isn't marriage a courtesy for you humans to treat your spouse?"

"Yeah..." Tangcuo smiled, stretched out his hand to hold his big palm, and put it close to his cheek, "Then after we get married, I will call you that. Then you can't throw me into a dark place again..."

"No more." Sals followed his palm and gently stroked his cheek. As the heat in his body gradually spread, Sals' other hand stroked his back.

"Baby, what about tonight?"

Seeing his distracted look, Tang Cuo swallowed and said, "Didn't we just..."

"I was afraid you would get hurt last night, so I was a little restrained. Honey, you know, the needs of mermaids are very strong..."

Tangcuo suddenly remembered what Xiaoye had said before, that the mermaids would need at least two days to start...

[Come on, host. If you don’t take action now, you won’t be able to sleep when it’s almost over. You must seize this blessing…]

This blessing is for you, do you want it?

Looking at Sals' sincere eyes, I wanted to say no, but suddenly I couldn't say it.

"Have you had a spouse before?" Tangcuo asked.

"No, you're the only one."

"The lifespans of humans and mermaids are very different. Will you still look for a mate after I die?" Tang Cuo's voice became a little deeper.

"No, you are the only one, baby. Don't worry, as long as you bear my child, your life span will naturally increase. When our little mermaid can be independent, I will take you to see all the beautiful scenery in the sea, okay?" Sals' tone was extremely serious, as if he had already seen the future life of the two.

"Okay, then I want to watch the underwater fireworks and the fish building bridges..." I don't know if that time will ever come.

Thinking of this, Tang Cuo's hand naturally rested on Sals' body, and the slight redness in the corners of his eyes aroused his pity.

Sals felt his movement, then leaned down and kissed his lips gently, then held his neck tightly and deepened the kiss.

The intertwined breaths made Tang Cuo's heart pound. He stretched out his hand and softly pushed Sals in front of him, but he was pinned on the top of his head.

Sals pressed one hand on his wrist and lifted his chin with the other, his fingers moving slowly downwards.

The night was still very long, and it was not until dawn that Sals covered his body with his huge fish tail, held him in his arms and fell asleep gently.

The next morning, Tangcuo opened his eyes. For some reason, the aches and pains he felt last night had all disappeared. He reached out and touched his waist, and it didn't seem to hurt...

~(￣▽￣～)~

He smiled, then slowly stood up, looked at Sals who was sleeping soundly beside him, and walked away from the bottom of the abyss.

When Sals opened his eyes again, Tangcuo had disappeared.
