I became a mermaid egg and saved the Imperial Marshal

Wen Yi chased after him. He looked at the white egg in Huo Linyuan's hand with some hesitation: "Professor Alaid is waiting for you in the medical cabin. Maybe the situation of the egg..."

Huo Linyuan nodded without waiting for him to continue.

Wen Yi could only give up, but as he watched Huo Linyuan's departing back, he fell into deep thought.

Because just now, he seemed to feel a faint energy from the egg. This energy was very similar to mental power, but it was at a higher level than mental power.

Wen Yi had only felt this kind of energy from Huo Linyuan, and it was in the spiritual realm.

There is actually no clear explanation for the term "spiritual realm", and most people don't even know that such a thing exists.

If I have to describe it, it would be suppression, like the suppression of blood.

In the entire interstellar civilization, there is only one person who possesses the spiritual realm, and that is Huo Linyuan.

Although the energy in Qi Yan was very weak and obviously different from Huo Linyuan's spiritual realm, it was a real spiritual essence, which even Wen Yi could not do.

"Mermaid eggs...?" Wen Yi muttered to himself.

When Shen Yi mentioned mermaid eggs, others might not take it seriously, but Wen Yi had seen with his own eyes how harsh the conditions were on Hengtan Star. In such a harsh environment, even he would be affected without protection.

Ever since Huo Linyuan was injured, Wen Yi has been by his side almost all the time, and no one knows Huo Linyuan's physical condition better than him.

In such a harsh environment as Hengtan Star, even if Huo Linyuan could suppress the riot of his mental power, it would definitely not be that easy.

But not only did he not lose control, his condition when he returned was even much more stable than before. Could it be because of that egg?

Wen Yi didn't dare to make a conclusion before, but he knew that this egg was very important to Huo Linyuan, so when modifying the incubator, he asked Hill to specially enhance the defense level.

But now, Wen Yi couldn't help but feel a little hopeful...

-

In the room, Qi Yan placed the eggshell on the protective cover of the incubator and stared at Huo Linyuan's back, feeling a little uneasy.

After they came out of the command room, Huo Linyuan took him to a room that looked like a study, and then put him into the incubator without saying a word during the whole process.

Is he angry? Qi Yan thought.

Qi Yan was eager to express himself but couldn't find a way. His eyes turned black with anxiety. It was not until Huo Linyuan covered him with his hand that he realized that he had used his mental power unconsciously.

Even though Qi Yan was feeling a little listless now, he had no time to rest. Whenever he thought about the communication problem between him and Huo Linyuan, he became anxious.

An upset Qi Yan knocked against the protective shield unconsciously, tapping it rhythmically, as if venting the depression in his heart.

"Want to compare hardness with the protective shield?" There seemed to be a hint of smile in Huo Linyuan's clear and sharp voice.

Qi Yan was startled, then he realized his behavior and felt a little embarrassed, but his attention was soon attracted by the thing in Huo Linyuan's hand.

Basin? Or a vat? Having seen so many high-tech things, Qi Yan didn't expect to see something so down-to-earth.

It was a round container made of bone china, slightly smaller than an incubator, with a wide mouth and a height of about twenty centimeters. There were several goldfish carved on the surface.

Only after Huo Linyuan approached did Qi Yan notice that it was filled with transparent liquid.

Huo Linyuan placed the container next to the incubator, opened the protective cover, and took Qi Yan out of the incubator.

"This contains the Omi essence, which helps to restore mental strength." After saying that, he put Qi Yan into the bone china jar.

Qi Yan immediately felt her body wrapped in sticky liquid. Every time she moved, she felt like she was stuck in a quagmire. It was sticky and very uncomfortable.

Qi Yan protested and struggled inside. Seeing this, Huo Linyuan pressed his fingertips against the eggshell to prevent him from moving: "Soak for a while. Your mental strength is too weak."

Omi Essence is a high-purity spiritual power repair fluid, which is extremely precious because it is difficult to refine.

However, now Huo Linyuan is using it to "bath" an egg. If other people knew about this, they would inevitably say it is a waste of resources.

Gradually, Qi Yan felt that there was a constant supply of energy replenishing his mental strength, making his thoughts clearer and clearer, and his previous fatigue and exhaustion were also greatly alleviated.

Qi Yan was secretly surprised, and couldn't help but marvel at the magic of the Omi essence, while at the same time remembering to absorb it quickly.

Huo Linyuan sat behind the desk with a light screen in front of him and a bone china jar on the table within his reach.

His left hand remained in the position of pressing against the eggshell, while his right hand kept tapping the recording board on the table, his expression very serious.

Qi Yan rubbed his fingertips to express her gratitude to him, and then her eyes uncontrollably focused on his profile, her thoughts slowly dispersing.

After returning to the main galaxy this time, the situation will enter a white-hot stage. The royal family will use the reason of mental collapse to exert pressure and design a series of conspiracies to force Huo Linyuan to hand over military power.

The part that Qi Yan still remembers vividly is that the royal family spread the video of Huo Linyuan falling into a mental chaos when suppressing the alien beast on the Star Network, sparking public opinion and using the people to suppress Huo Linyuan.

At first, most people chose to support Huo Linyuan and denounce the royal family, but human hearts can never stand the test of time. As the saying goes, "three people make a tiger."

As the strongest person in the galaxy, Huo Linyuan is a hero in everyone's eyes and the hope of the entire galaxy when he defends his country against alien beasts.

But if one day this power becomes uncontrollable and may threaten oneself, the selfishness of human nature will be revealed.

Qi Yan watched helplessly as Huo Linyuan in the book turned from the light of the empire into a madman whom everyone shunned. The human nature was displayed so vividly by the author in this passage that Qi Yan felt a chill all over his body while reading it.

What does it feel like to be betrayed by the person you protect? Huo Linyuan was able to remain calm from beginning to end, just like he had been accustomed to the darkness for a long time, but Qi Yan could not. He sincerely did not want Huo Linyuan to experience this.

While reading the book, Qi Yan even went against what he had been taught all along and couldn't help but think: Why should we save these people? How much better it would have been if Huo Linyuan hadn't endured the violent and chaotic pain of his mental strength to block the tide of strange beasts.

But no matter how much Qi Yan wishes, the ending of the story will not change, because he is Huo Linyuan, a man who can control the overall situation even when he is at a disadvantage.

This man's talent is enough to make him shine in any field and stand out from others, but he chose to shoulder the heavy responsibility and protect the people.

If it weren't for the royal family's jealousy, he would be the most solid support in the entire galaxy.
