Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 161

Luo Lin swallowed the two spirit cores, and Sheng Nuan reminded him, “It might be very painful, bear with it.”

Luo Lin responded with a low “mm,” but in the next instant, he was caught off guard and let out a muffled groan, half-kneeling down on the ground.

It felt as if there were bombs exploding inside his chest and abdomen, causing excruciating pain that tore him apart. Bl00d gushed from the corners of his mouth, nostrils, and even ears. His eyes turned crimson, countless bl00d vessels bursting, and he gasped for air, then vomited dark red bl00d.

Sheng Nuan quickly used a mineral water bottle to pour spring water and feed it to him, while Luo Lin collapsed, curling up, trembling all over.

As she fed him water, Sheng Nuan coaxed, “Drink it, it won’t hurt anymore. Be good…”

Luo Lin was already in so much pain that he was becoming a bit disoriented, but when he heard her voice, he forced his mouth open and gulped down the cool spring water.

The flames in his chest and abdomen were doused, the cool, gentle sensation barely suppressing the unbearable pain. Luo Lin forced his eyes open and saw Sheng Nuan’s anxious and worried expression.

She gently stroked his hair, comforting him, “It’s okay, it’s okay. I’m here. Just drink more spring water, and it’ll be over soon…”

In the next moment, a new wave of pain hit him, and Luo Lin’s vision turned a deep red.

At first, it hurt—it hurt overwhelmingly—but eventually, he couldn’t feel the pain anymore. Instead, he sensed his consciousness floating, sometimes wanting to plunge into the endless abyss of darkness, where he wouldn’t feel pain anymore…

Yet, at those moments, a voice would always pull him back.

“Luo Lin, hold on a little longer. It’ll be over soon…”

Water from a spring was fed into his mouth, and he struggled to swallow it, relying on his subconscious. Then, he was pulled up from the abyss once again…

He floated in and out of consciousness for what felt like an eternity until Luo Lin regained awareness, realizing he was lying in a tent, covered with a blanket.

The catastrophic pain from before had long disappeared.

Outside the tent, there was flickering firelight and low voices.

Luo Lin slowly propped himself up, then froze in place…

He could feel that his spirit core had recovered, and the newly condensed spirit core was even stronger than before.

He could even sense some fluctuating power outside the tent, a result of his ability to perceive evolvers… He could feel the power fluctuations of the evolvers and could replicate their abilities.

A wave of overwhelming ecstasy surged in Luo Lin’s heart, and he suddenly stood up and opened the tent to step outside.

He instinctively wanted to go out to find Sheng Nuan, but when he stepped out of the tent and saw her and Qin Yu sitting by the campfire, whispering in low voices to each other, he suddenly halted, a wave of irritation and discontent rising unexpectedly in his heart.

What were they talking about sitting so close together?

No matter what they were discussing, was it necessary to be that close?

At this moment, Sheng Nuan sensed the movement, turned to see Luo Lin, and her face immediately beamed with joy. “You’re awake.”

She smiled brightly. “How do you feel? Are you back to normal? I didn’t lie to you…”

Before Sheng Nuan could finish speaking, she froze, as Luo Lin stepped over silently and suddenly reached out to hug her.

Sheng Nuan was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled and patted him. “Alright, alright, it’s okay. I know you’re happy, that’s all that matters.”

At that moment, Luo Lin also discovered something.

He released Sheng Nuan and saw the scars on the back of her hand, frowning. “You didn’t drink that water?”

Sheng Nuan paused, casually laughing. “Just a little scratch. I would’ve forgotten if you hadn’t mentioned it.”

Earlier, fearing there wouldn’t be enough spring water, customer service activated pain shielding for her, so she hadn’t felt any pain. Fortunately, she hadn’t drunk any either; the spring water had barely been enough for Luo Lin, and for the next ten minutes, he had to tough it out… If she had taken a few more sips, he probably would have been in serious trouble that night.

After all, even under the same conditions, different situations could yield different results. In the original plot, he was lucky to survive; this time, he might encounter those probabilities of failure.

But fortunately, the outcome was good…

Luo Lin suddenly froze, realizing something.

He looked at Sheng Nuan and asked her, “You’ve run out of that water, haven’t you?”

Sheng Nuan replied nonchalantly, “It’ll be replenished soon. You don’t need to worry.”

Luo Lin pressed his lips together, looking at her. “You didn’t use it for yourself because you wanted to save it for me, did you?”

Sheng Nuan: ……

Though that was true, being asked so directly made her a bit embarrassed… After all, she was doing it for the mission.

Sheng Nuan playfully said, “Alright, alright, don’t think about that. You must be hungry, come over and eat.”

Qin Yu had cooked a pot of thick vegetable and lean meat porridge and was keeping it warm over the fire.

Qin Yu noticed at a glance that Luo Lin seemed a bit different now, but he tactfully refrained from asking further and instead gestured toward the pot. “Have some.”

“Thank you.” Luo Lin walked over, squeezing himself between Sheng Nuan and Qin Yu.

Sheng Nuan was a bit speechless. He chose to squeeze in rather than sit in a perfectly fine spot, so she had to shift a bit… Only for Luo Lin to move closer to her again.

In the end, they sat together, with Qin Yu sitting alone across from them.

After finishing their meal, Sheng Nuan turned her head and asked in a low voice. “Your abilities have recovered too, right?”

Luo Lin nodded.

Sheng Nuan smiled. “That’s good.”

Feigning ignorance, she added, “By the way, what’s your ability? I’ve never asked you.”

Luo Lin glanced at her, pressed his lips together, and whispered. “Enlightenment.”

Thinking that Sheng Nuan probably hadn’t heard of it, he explained, “It means I can replicate other people’s abilities.”

Sheng Nuan’s eyes widened instantly, and then she winked at him. “Then hurry and replicate Qin Yu’s… Don’t miss this opportunity!”

Luo Lin’s lips curled up slightly, inexplicably finding Sheng Nuan’s tone of taking advantage of Qin Yu alongside him quite pleasant to hear. He whispered, “I’ve already replicated it.”

Sheng Nuan clicked her tongue, giving him a meaningful look. “Such a chicken thief¹…”

Luo Lin felt a bit helpless. “Sister’s way of praising others is refreshingly unique…”

Sheng Nuan then asked, “What about mine? Have you replicated it?”

Luo Lin hesitated for a moment, then lightly coughed. “I’ve replicated that too.”

Sheng Nuan clicked her tongue. “Indeed, a real chicken thief…”

A moment later, Luo Lin told Sheng Nuan to rest inside the tent while he stayed outside with Qin Yu to keep watch.

Sheng Nuan didn’t insist. After all, Luo Lin was probably the strongest among the three of them now, and his enlightenment ability was practically a bug.

She was indeed tired. Although her pain was blocked, battling both the mutated python and the mutated giant wolf had also taken a toll on her strength.

She had already changed out of her dirty clothes, but she still reeked of bl00d, only hoping for an early chance to take a shower.

Lying there, Sheng Nuan asked customer service about Luo Lin’s condition.

“His spirit core has fully recovered, just like in the original plot.” Customer service was also pleased.

After all, Luo Lin’s mission was to restore his spirit core and take him to the Silver Wolf military base. Now, more than half has been completed.

The next moment, customer service suddenly recalled something: “However, his spirit core now has a darker aura compared to the original. This is because he is using the spirit core powers of mutated animals and plants to repair his body, so some impurities are inevitable. This was also the case in the original plot…”

Sheng Nuan responded with a hum, her consciousness beginning to blur.

Seeing that she was really tired, customer service didn’t continue talking and told her to rest well…
