Uesugi Kotoko always found it satisfying to talk to someone about her research, so she would put her physical needs aside and focus on her mental needs. Not many people were willing to talk to her about her research. She was almost driven crazy by her work. She wished the corpses could talk to her too, so she could share her findings and research with her.
Therefore, Uesugi Kotoko basically answered every question Zhao Manyan asked. However, she did not notice a shadow sneaking up behind her shadow and grabbing its throat with its long claws.
Uesugi Kotoko was still unaware of the shadow. A few figures slowly showed up behind her.
"You …" Uesugi Kotoko turned around and realized something was not right when she saw the figures.
"Stop pretending, you Undead Shaman!" Mofan said coldly.
Killing someone, sealing their warehouse, and shipping them out of the country as a specimen. How could Mofan not be enraged by such a cruel move? Most importantly, the person in the warehouse was none other than Mubai!
"What's the meaning of this? I already told you, I have a valid ID. The ship is out of the sea now. If you dare to do anything to me, I can call the police right away!" Uesugi Kotoko finally realized that the people were here for her specimen. The blonde man was just a bait.
"Call the police?" Zhao Manyan chuckled.
Mu Xumian frowned. She took a closer look at the short-haired Uesugi Kotoko and glanced at the Queen Bee of Vengeance on her shoulder.
"Wait, she's not the Undead Shaman," Mu Xumian said.
"What Undead Shaman? I'm just a worker of the Research Union. Even if I'm collecting corpses, you have no right to interfere!" Uesugi Kotoko said righteously.
"You better tell us the truth. Otherwise, I'm going to send you to the Research Union of our country as a specimen!" Mofan's dark brown eyes suddenly sprang open. A dark fear surged into Uesugi Kotoko's mind.
Uesugi Kotoko was so scared that her face turned pale and she took a few steps back.
"He's our friend. If we find out you killed him, I'll make sure your soul suffers the most torturous torture after you die!" Mo Fan had no patience to talk about mercy with Uesugi Kotoko.
Uesugi Kotoko couldn't resist Mofan's mental pressure. She was so scared that she fell to the ground and began to tremble.
"I didn't kill him, I really didn't kill him …" Uesugi Kotoko almost cried.
"Then what the hell is going on!" Mofan questioned.
"I'm in Xiamen … I was in Xiamen some time ago. Xiamen was hit by a huge storm. I was originally returning to Japan from Xiamen, but I was trapped on the island. When the Siren appeared, I hid in a deserted shopping mall. Then, not long after, I heard some very strange and terrifying sounds. I was so scared that I didn't dare to move. I vaguely heard someone running towards here, and there was also a strange ghost-like thing chasing after him. "
"I couldn't see anything. It was so dark. I only knew your friend seemed to have eliminated the ghost-like thing. He then ran into the deserted shopping mall."
"I waited for a long time. I only went to check on him after I made sure there was nothing nearby. He was on the verge of death. His body was emitting the scent of the undead. His organs were failing. He was going to die if he lay there for another half an hour. "
"However, for some reason, when he was about to die, a faint green frost appeared on his body. The frost wrapped around him like a cocoon …"
While saying this, Uesugi Kotoko unlocked the coffin and opened it.
A faint green frost burst out of the coffin. Mofan, Zhao Manyan, Mu Ningxue, Mu Xumian, and Liu Ru immediately looked into the coffin. It was just as Uesugi Kotoko had mentioned. Mubai was covered in an ice cocoon.
"He's still alive?" Mofan blurted out in joy.
"He's dead," Liu Ru shook her head.
The others looked at Liu Ru in confusion. Liu Ru explained, "When a person is seriously injured, such as losing blood rapidly, damaging their vital organs, or destroying their body tissues, their life will be drained rapidly. He was now in a state that was equivalent to death. Once the ice cocoon dissolves, he will die within a breath's time before a Healer can cast a spell. "
"A Healer's ability to heal is to awaken the body's ability to heal itself. Once the ice cocoon dissolves, his life will be drained at a rate ten times faster than the healing speed. There's no way we can save him … I'm not lying to you. I might not be a qualified Healer, but I know when a person is a corpse. It doesn't matter how we store him, it won't change the fact. I was in charge of this job, and I noticed that the Ice Silkworm was trying to freeze his life. I guess he was unwilling to die just like that, so I decided to put him in this coffin. If you want to preserve his body, it's best to cover him up, "Uesugi Kotoko said.
Mofan looked at Mubai, who was frozen inside the ice cocoon. He could see the agony on his face through the ice. He was both annoyed and furious.
He knew there was a terrifying person hiding nearby, yet he thought the person would take the initiative to target him. To his surprise, the person's real target was Mubai!
Mubai was defending the Apricot Forest Line. He was ambushed by the Undead Shaman when he was fighting against the sea monsters. Mu Xumian also mentioned that the Undead Shaman was extremely powerful. They had to rely on their numbers to take on the Undead Shaman. Mubai was on his own, yet he managed to defeat the Undead Shaman and preserve his life …
"Mofan, can Xinxia save Mubai?" Mu Ningxue asked softly.
"I don't know, the Parthenon Temple has some powerful spells," Mofan said.
"The Parthenon Temple won't be able to save him. Our job is very familiar with the Parthenon Temple. Their Healing Spells are based on the characteristics of a living being. Your friend … even without the Undead Shaman, he can't be considered a living being," Uesugi Kotoko said confidently.
"Either way, let's bring him to the Parthenon Temple and show him to Xinxia," Zhao Manyan said.
"You can't take him away, he's mine …" Uesugi Kotoko blurted out.
"Humph, keep complaining if you want to spend the rest of your life in prison," Mofan said coldly.
