Mountoad jumped into the bathroom obediently as it was his first time controlling the wizard gu with his thoughts. Zhang Lisheng muttered to himself in satisfaction, "Although the reward of breaking through to Rank-5 Wizard isn't a powerful ability, it's very practical. I wonder how I should cast the incantation with my thoughts …"
As the young man spoke, a blood-red word 'transform' appeared on his chest all of a sudden. As soon as the word appeared, it disappeared in a flash and turned into a bloody mist that scattered in the air. It drifted to Mountoad that was sitting on the bathroom floor and wrapped around it.
After being nourished by Zhang Lisheng's blood essence, the spikes on the wizard gu's outer skin stood up one by one, becoming thicker and almost twice as long. Its body also became bigger, appearing as though it had been refined once again.
"If it continues to grow bigger, Mountoad won't be able to fit into my backpack anymore when I transform into a Rank-6 Wizard." Looking at Mountoad that was now comparable to a medium-sized dog on the floor, two blood-red words' transform 'flashed on Zhang Lisheng's chest again.
After the two words' transform 'appeared, it turned into a bloody mist and disappeared. A few seconds later, the young man could clearly feel that the remaining two wizard gu, Island Dragon and Crocodragon, had been refined for the fourth time. "Now that I have the' simplify 'incantation, things have indeed become much simpler."
Making a breakthrough after Rank-5 Wizard would be the time for witchcraft's first qualitative change. Even though it was recorded in the ancient books that it was dangerous to make a breakthrough from Rank-5 to Rank-5 Wizard, Zhang Lisheng, who had made a breakthrough from Rank-1 Wizard to Rank-5 Wizard in less than a year after becoming a wizard, felt that the transformation was just around the corner.
He smiled silently and climbed out of the bath. All of a sudden, he heard the doorbell ringing outside the bathroom.
"Baby, the doorbell is ringing. Go open the door and see if someone is here to do a blood test for us. I'll go first …" Upon hearing the doorbell, Tina woke up from her dream and crawled out of the bed in a flurry. Rushing into the bathroom, she saw the young man who was putting on a bathrobe. "Oh, so you've already woken up and even took a bath secretly. Wait a minute …"
"Tina, didn't you say that the Elizabeth Holiday is now a military control area and we must cooperate with other people's actions obediently? I'll go open the door first." Zhang Lisheng glanced at the girl's full chest that was full of hickeys and quickly walked out of the bathroom as if he was running away.
"Don't worry, baby. I like how rough you were just now. We can try it again later." Tina chuckled while looking at the young man's back.
Zhang Lisheng pretended not to hear anything and quickly took out a few brand-new clothes from the closet in the bedroom. After putting them on, he hurriedly opened the door of the suite.
The person outside the door was not a soldier in a quarantine suit as he expected, but a middle-aged man in a brown suit with a smile on his face. "You're so young, sir. Sorry to disturb you. I'm Martin Lukenan, and I work for the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention."
"Hello, Martin Lukenan. I'm Zhang Lisheng." Zhang Lisheng nodded in bafflement and blurted out, "Is it okay for you to be like this? I mean, you're not wearing a protective suit …"
"That's just a trick to fool amateurs. The place you're going isn't outer space. How can there be so many dangerous bacteria? Can I go in?"
"Oh, of course. Sorry, I forgot to invite you in." The person's unusually kind attitude made Zhang Lisheng relax a lot unknowingly. He opened the door and said, "Oh yeah, other than me, there's someone else in this room …"
Zhang Lisheng closed the door and turned around as he was speaking. Before he could turn his body completely, his eyes had already seen a glaring white light and he instantly fainted.
Not knowing how long had passed, Zhang Lisheng slowly woke up. After regaining his consciousness, he did not open his eyes right away. Instead, he commanded the invisible Island Dragon with his mind to travel through the void and rush to his side.
After that, Zhang Lisheng opened his eyes abruptly and realized that he was lying on the sofa in the living room of the cruise suite. The entire room was empty except for him, and there was no sign of danger at all.
Puzzled, he slowly stood up and moved his limbs. Feeling that he was full of energy and there was no pain in his body, Zhang Lisheng pondered and muttered, "Could it be that Martin Lukenan doesn't have any malicious intent toward me? That's why my sharp intuition didn't work.
But what's with that glaring light and fainting … Oh sh * t, there's Tina as well … "
The young man exclaimed and ran into the bedroom in a hurry. He saw Tina wearing her sexy pajamas and lying on the huge heart-shaped water bed. She was sleeping soundly, breathing smoothly and without any sign of being violated at all. Instead, it was Zhang Lisheng's sudden intrusion that seemed to have disturbed the girl.
After rolling her eyes a few times under her eyelids, Tina suddenly opened her eyes. The moment she saw the young man, she immediately grabbed the thin blanket on the ship to cover her body and exclaimed, "Lisheng, why did you come into my bedroom?"
"I-I … What's wrong with you, Tina?" Zhang Lisheng was stunned and asked.
"What's wrong with me? Of course, I'm shocked that you came into my bedroom so casually.
Even if we're good friends … Wait a minute, wait a minute! Oh, w-when we were dating … You've become my boyfriend?
No, no, I don't think you're my boyfriend but my lover … Sh * t, I'm not Sheila!
Why would I look for a lover? No, no, I'm not a lover either … Oh, I can't remember.
My head hurts! Oh my god! What's wrong with me … "The more she thought about it, the more dazed and painful the girl became.
"Don't panic, Tina. Don't panic. Don't force yourself if you can't remember it …" Zhang Lisheng walked to the girl's bed at a loss and comforted her softly.
At this time, the ship's broadcast resonated all of a sudden, "The Elizabeth Holiday is about to dock at the New York Harbor. All passengers, please get ready to disembark. There will be emergency personnel after the ship has docked …"
When Zhang Lisheng heard the broadcast, he blurted out in shock, "The Elizabeth Holiday has returned to the New York Harbor? Sh * t! Isn't the ship docked at an island port in the Atlantic Ocean? What's going on?"
"It's back to the New York Harbor! It's back to New York! I want to disembark! I want to disembark …" When Tina, who was in a daze, heard the broadcast, she jumped off the water bed in her pajamas and ran out of the room in her slippers.
Zhang Lisheng did not stop the girl in his astonishment. After Tina had run away, he pondered as he stood by the bed with doubts in his heart. Then, he commanded Mountoad to jump into his arms and took a nightgown before striding out of the cabin suite.
The corridor was filled with absent-minded young men. Zhang Lisheng followed the crowd to walk up to the deck and saw a huge towboat painted with the US national emblem and the Stars and Stripes Flag towing the Elizabeth Holiday into the New York Harbor.
That ship was none other than the Saint Mary belonging to the US Coast Guard. However, the naval warships and armed helicopters that had accompanied the towing ship were nowhere to be seen.
The young man slowly walked to the side of the ship and looked towards the shore. The sun that was already scorching hot in the early summer shone down from the sky, causing the hundreds of ambulances in the harbor to be dazzling white.
At this time, the motor on the Elizabeth Holiday was started. The cruise's suspension ladder began to extend to the shore slowly.
On the deck, the Coast Guard soldiers began to comfort the passengers softly to prepare to disembark. Zhang Lisheng, on the other hand, left the side of the ship and looked around, trying to find Tina who had gone out a step earlier than him.
Most of the faces on the deck had a panicked expression on them. He walked around the crowd and finally found Tina who was discussing something excitedly with her two good sisters, Trish and Sheila, at a corner of the deck with her back facing the suspension ladder.
"Tina, are you alright?" Zhang Lisheng walked up to the girl and put a nightgown on her.
"I'm not alright, Lisheng!" Tina glanced at the young man and shouted loudly. "Trish and Sheila are not alright too! We've forgotten a lot of things! It's as though the last few months of our lives are completely incomplete!
I feel that you're very kind but I don't know why we're together. Trish said that you must have saved our lives but she doesn't know where this thought came from either … What the hell!
The three of us even had to gather together to discuss for a long time before we finally remembered why we're on this ship … "
The girl's uncontrollable emotions attracted the attention of a middle-aged officer who had a tough temperament and was constantly scanning the deck with an unusually sharp gaze not far away. He strode up to Tina. "Miss, don't worry. The doctor will help you when you get off the ship later.
Relax and take a deep breath. Don't be nervous. No matter what happened, it's all in the past now. "
"Thank you! Thank you, Mr. Major! Thank you!" After venting out her negative emotions, Tina calmed down a lot.
At this time, Zhang Lisheng, who was by the side, suddenly realized that if the stern middle-aged officer had a softer expression and changed into a brown suit, he would also be Martin Lukenan, who claimed to be working at the National Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in front of him not long ago.
When the middle-aged officer saw Zhang Lisheng's face, his eyes narrowed right away.
Upon seeing his stiff expression, the young man, who had gradually realized that other than himself, everyone else seemed to have a problem with their recent memories, felt his heart clench. Pretending to have lost his memory, he suddenly asked, "Mr. Major, can you tell us what happened to us?"
"Shipwreck, a serious shipwreck. You're all lucky young people. Let's go, I'll send you off the ship." The officer took a deep look at Zhang Lisheng and personally escorted the three girls, who had a painful expression on their faces from time to time, and Zhang Lisheng, who pretended to be in a daze, off the cruise ship.
The moment Zhang Lisheng, Tina, and the other three went ashore, they were swiftly helped onto the stretcher by several nurses. At this time, the middle-aged soldier did not leave immediately but asked the emergency doctor who rushed over instead, "Doctor, can you take a look at the condition of these four children?"
The skinny black emergency doctor used an instrument that emitted blue light like a miniature flashlight to quickly check the pupils of the four people. "These four children have abnormal neurosensory reactions, but there's no serious problem.
Don't worry, children. Relax, the ambulance will send you to the hospital for a routine examination. If everything is normal, you can be discharged after one night of observation. "
"Does that boy also have abnormal neurosensory reactions?" The middle-aged officer suddenly asked again.
