Chapter 815: The Death Of The Clown Sea Serpent?

‘Did something happen to the Clown Sea Serpent and the Central Asian base?’

When Su Yang heard Little Deeny’s words, he was stunned for a moment. Perhaps because he was still thinking about Wang Dong, he almost could not react in time.

It was only when Little Deeny repeated herself in his ear that he regained his senses and asked, “What’s happened to him?”

Su Yang had never heard Little Deeny being so nervous before as she said in a panic, “Master, I don’t know the exact situation. The last image I have recorded was a cannonball smashing into a room. Then, the entire building collapsed and rocks flew everywhere. After that, the glass phone was completely destroyed.”

After hearing what Little Deeny said, Su Yang understood the seriousness of the matter. He quickly asked Little Deeny to play the last recorded image for him.

At first, the Clown Sea Serpent was sitting at his desk with his legs crossed, playing with his phone. Suddenly, there was a loud boom, and the whole image started to shake like the room was shaking. Then, stones flew everywhere, and explosions rang out. In just a moment, the ceiling cracked, and countless broken tiles fell.

On the other hand, the Clown Sea Serpent did not expect such a situation to occur at all. Hence, he could not dodge in time and was instantly squashed within the rubble. What followed was the scene described by Little Deeny:

The sound of the cannons being fired went on and on, and the image began to become jumbled, and the background noise became louder as well. The Clown Sea Serpent looked as if he was trying to break free. But just as he lifted a piece of the momentum pressing down on him, he saw something dark rushing into the room. And then, with a loud bang, the image stopped playing...

When Su Yang saw this, he had a bad feeling. He asked Little Deeny, “How much damage can our glass phones take?”

Little Deeny hesitated for a moment before saying, “At most, it can resist an ordinary bullet, but the glass phone would be immediately deemed useless.”

Su Yang calmed down a little. At least this meant that the situation might not be as bad as he had imagined...

‘However, if the glass phone took a direct hit from a cannonball, the Clown Sea Serpent might have no chance of survival...’

Even though Su Yang was slightly relieved, the Clown Sea Serpent was still in danger. Therefore, Su Yang did not dare to waste any more time. He quickly contacted Old Pei. After all, the glass phone next to the Clown Sea Serpent had been destroyed, so Su Yang could not go to his side directly. Therefore, he could only settle for the next best thing and find Old Pei to understand the situation.

When Old Pei received a video call from Su Yang, he was moving some stuff in the storeroom. Obviously, he did not know anything about this.

After listening to Su Yang’s story, he was a little puzzled. “I didn’t receive any news, Boss. Don’t worry, I’ll head back and take a look right now.”

However, before he could hang up, Su Yang heard someone rushing into the warehouse. He shouted to Old Pei, “Old Pei, something has happened! Sir Clown Sea Serpent has been attacked.”

Old Pei hurriedly asked, “What’s the current situation? Is he alright? Who did it?”

The person who came to report obviously did not know about this. Instead, he could only say what he knew. “The current situation is unclear. We only know that a fully armed team carrying heavy weapons has attacked our organization’s building.

“These men are very experienced. In just two minutes, they destroyed the whole building and retreated immediately. Because the incident happened so suddenly, no one escaped from the building. So, we don’t even know if he’s still alive.”

Su Yang could no longer sit still when he heard this.

Even though the Clown Sea Serpent had been wandering a little away from the core team of little monsters, his loyalty to Su Yang was unquestionable.

After he submitted to Su Yang, he helped Yang settle many things that Su Yang could not handle, thus being of great help.

Therefore, after interacting with the Clown Sea Serpent for so long, Su Yang slowly accepted him as one of his own.

Therefore, when Su Yang heard that something had happened to him, he quickly got Little Deeny to open the teleportation portal and arrived before Old Pei.

Looking at Su Yang who suddenly appeared beside him, Old Pei quickly stood up and bowed to Su Yang along with the little monster who had just given his report by the door. “Boss.”

Su Yang waved his hand. “Let’s go to the base now.”

Su Yang was just about to leave after he said that.

However, before he could take two steps, Old Pei stopped him.

Su Yang looked at Old Pei, not understanding what he meant.

Old Pei shook his head slightly and said, “Mr. Su, the situation is unclear now. We don’t even know if the enemy has actually retreated or not. So, you really shouldn’t go to the place where the incident happened, it’s too dangerous. Let me go in your place instead.”

Su Yang looked straight into Old Pei’s eyes. When he saw Old Pei’s serious gaze, he eventually nodded.

Following that, he summoned Shark Two and a group of Little Monster Beans from the virtual space to protect Old Pei as they headed to the base, while Su Yang waited patiently for their feedback in the warehouse.

While waiting in Old Pei’s office, Su Yang felt that time was passing by extremely slowly.

Fortunately, Old Pei soon arrived at the base.

When they arrived at the base, Old Pei switched on the video call so that Su Yang could understand the situation remotely.

Through Old Pei’s image, Su Yang could see that the entire base’s building had collapsed.

The three-storey building had been reduced to ruins. Broken tiles and debris littered the ground, and not a single part of it remained intact. Seeing this, the enemy’s goal was clear. They wanted to destroy the entire base, including the people inside, so they destroyed every single room.

Under Su Yang’s authorization, Old Pei summoned a bunch of humanoid monsters that had been resurrected from the circus. They were on high alert and dug around. Soon, they found many broken bodies of Central Asians.

Under the enemy’s attack, these ordinary people had no chance of surviving.

Looking at the corpses, Su Yang had a bad premonition. ‘Looking at their condition, the chances of the Clown Sea Serpent surviving are very slim...’

Finally, after digging for half an hour, Old Pei dug out the Clown Sea Serpent buried in the ruins. At this time, the Clown Sea Serpent’s body was twisted, with a leg and a foot lost, and half of his body had been blown up. He was in a bloodied state and was on the verge of death. In fact, he did not have the evil and arrogant look that he usually had.

For a moment, Su Yang could not believe that this lump of flesh was the Clown Sea Serpent...

After confirming the identity of the Clown Sea Serpent, Old Pei quickly ordered the little monsters to move the Clown Sea Serpent into the virtual space for Sanque to treat him.

At that moment, Sanque was already extremely busy with his existing work. As the only doctor among the little monsters, he was busy treating the wounded.

Even though these injured people were not little monsters or Su Yang’s subordinates, they were still people that the Clown Sea Serpent had won over. In a sense, they were considered as one of their own.

Therefore, Su Yang did not want them to die for nothing.

However, this time, the enemy had clearly gone too far. Judging by how anxious Sanque looked, and how he shook his head later on, it seemed like most of them could not be saved...

After transferring the Clown Sea Serpent into the virtual space, Sanque immediately went to check on his injuries. Su Yang had also returned to the virtual space through his phone and was anxiously waiting for Sanque’s diagnosis.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes later...

Just as Su Yang was getting anxious, Sanque slowly raised his head and shook it.

Su Yang looked at him in disbelief. “There’s no saving him?”

Sanque did not answer Su Yang’s question directly. Instead, he explained, “The body of the Clown Sea Serpent is tougher, softer, and stronger than a human’s. This allowed him to keep his life.

“But... His injuries are too severe. If I’m not mistaken, a cannonball landed right next to him. So... Even though he’s still alive, it’s impossible to save him with such serious injuries. So, he’s no different from being dead.

“The only reason he’s still alive is because of his willpower.”

Su Yang tightened his grip. “Is there no other way?”

Sanque hesitated for a moment before saying, “Yes, me.”

Su Yang understood what he meant instantly. The only way to save the Clown Sea Serpent was to have Sanque enter the former to ingest.

However, regardless of whether it was the Clown Sea Serpent or Sanque, they were Su Yang’s most important companions, so Su Yang could not sacrifice the other for one. Hence, he could not help but frown.

After a moment of silence, Su Yang’s eyes lit up. He seemed to have thought of something as he ran up the stairs to the study room. Opening the drawer, he took out a blue fat cat money box.

Then, he opened the money box, poured out a bunch of ginseng roots, and ran downstairs.

These were the ginseng roots that Su Yang cut off from Sanque every week when the latter was still “healthy”.

This had always been Su Yang’s trump card. It was used to protect himself or his family from serious injuries. Now, it was to be used on the Clown Sea Serpent.

Su Yang ran to Sanque and handed him the ginseng roots. “What about these? Can you save him?”

Sanque’s gaze lingered on Su Yang’s hand for a while before he shook his head. “Not enough.”

Su Yang asked, “How much more do you need?”

Sanque thought for a moment and replied, “Half.

“These ginseng roots can at most save his life, but they cannot help him recover from his injured state. Based on his injuries, if he is not treated, he will still die. After all, he has lost half of his body...”

Hearing Sanque’s judgment, Su Yang’s heart sank and he fell silent.

He believed in Sanque’s judgment and knew about the situation with the Clown Sea Serpent. However, he could not accept the fact that someone close to him was about to leave just like that.

On top of that, the first one to leave his side was to be a little monster with a mind of his own...

He gripped his hands regretfully and tried to think of a solution.

He was unwilling to watch the little monster beside him leave like this!

‘I can definitely save him!

‘I should have a special item that could save him.’

However, perhaps because the incident with the Clown Sea Serpent’s injury was too sudden, he was too agitated, and for a moment, he could not remember anything.

Just as Su Yang was racking his brains to figure out what the key prop was, Little Deeny, who was standing beside him, said hesitantly, “Master, for Sanque to survive, maybe we could try the [Photosynthistic Treant]...?”

historical

With Little Deeny’s reminder, Su Yang felt a flash of inspiration. ‘That’s right! We can use the [Photosynthistic Treant]!

‘Why did I not think of it earlier!’

At that thought, Su Yang hugged Little Deeny and gave her a big kiss. “Little Deeny, you’re so smart! I knew I seemed to be missing something!”

With that, he ran upstairs to the study room to retrieve the remaining seed.

The [Photosynthistic Treant] was a new ability obtained when Sanque became +5.

With this ability, Sanque could give birth to two Companion Seeds every year. After the seed gets planted into a body, it would become one with that living being. As long as there was soil and sunlight, it could use photosynthesis to heal the living being’s wounds.

If their injuries were too severe, it could turn them into a plant and freeze their life temporarily while waiting for treatment.

Half a month ago, after Su Yang slapped his face with the [Lucky Destructive Brick], and he used the companion plant to recover.

In less than two hours, his miserably injured face was completely recovered.

Even though this recovery speed was not as fast as Sanque’s ginseng roots, the advantage was that there was no price needed to pay.

With the method to save the Clown Sea Serpent, Su Yang soaked the bag of Sanque’s ginseng roots in a cup of water and fed it to the Clown Sea Serpent.

After that, he placed the seed into his broken body. As the seed entered the Clown Sea Serpent’s body, the seed automatically became his companion.

With the confirmation of the relationship, the plant took root in the Clown Sea Serpent’s body and grew rapidly.

In just a moment, the veins, muscles, and organs of the Clown Sea Serpent extended out the roots of the plant.

Perhaps because his body was incomplete, the plant had grown out of his body, twisting in the air like a vine and gradually forming new limbs.

In just five minutes, the broken body of the Clown Sea Serpent had turned half-human, half-plant.

On top of that, his injuries also stabilized.

According to Sanque, the Clown Sea Serpent was no longer in danger of dying as his wounds were slowly recovering with the help of the companion plant.

However, compared to Sanque’s ginseng roots, the recovery rate of the companion plant was clearly much weaker. If it was just left on its own, it would take at least a year for the Clown Sea Serpent to fully recover. After all, his injuries were too severe.

Hence, if he wanted the Clown Sea Serpent to recover faster, the best way was to turn him into a plant. Then, planting him in the soil would speed up his photosynthesis process so that he could recover faster.

Given the Clown Sea Serpent’s current condition, there was no other choice. It would be better for it to recover earlier than later. Hence, Su Yang agreed without any hesitation.

Then, he, Sanque, and Little Deeny dug a hole in the courtyard and buried the Clown Sea Serpent inside. Just like that, the Clown Sea Serpent’s life was saved, but he had also turned into a plant and would not wake up anytime soon.

At the same time, what was left before Su Yang to deal with was the attack on Central Asia...
