Chapter 187 Carefully Selected Puppet
Ever since the Goddess Zi Ling announced that Helmai would be promoted to the new King of Divine Birds, the orcs of the Divine Birds clan placed the unconscious Helmai in the royal city of the Divine Birds clan, living in the exclusive bedroom of the Beast King.
Perhaps Helmei never thought that one day he would be able to enter the Divine Bird Tribe as if he were in an empty place, even though he had to lie down in it.
Although the Divine Bird Clan, under the leadership of the previous Divine Bird King, once hated Hermay and regarded him as a stain on the Divine Bird Clan.
But the Bird King had been beaten so badly that he was no longer a threat. He was still lying there dying and no one was sure when he would wake up. There was no one to take charge of the situation. At this time, Hermay was chosen by the Purple Forest Goddess, so they dared not disobey the arrangements of the goddess. They put aside their prejudice against Hermay and accepted him as the new king.
However, compared to the fact that Helmer is now in a coma, they seem to be more worried about how to get along with Helmer in the future.
After all... Helmer is not a character that is easy to mess with, not to mention that his level is now extremely powerful. If they make him unhappy while working with him, they will lose their heads.
But now E Ling did not have time to think so much. She stayed by Helmer's bed, looking at his pale face, but her heart was in turmoil.
The scenes in his mind were all about him putting aside his principles and kneeling before the goddess in order to save her from her clutches.
When I first met him, he was such a proud orc.
He would rather let the whole world betray him than let the whole world betray him. He suffered so much humiliation in his childhood that he values his self-esteem so much. If his self-esteem is trampled upon, it would be more painful than killing him.
But for her, he would rather make such a sacrifice...
E Ling couldn't help but have tears in her eyes. It was him who kept saying that he hated her and wanted to punish her, but when something happened, it was him who put aside his principles and stood up for her.
This guy, who is more stubborn than anyone else, obviously still likes her.
She had always thought that she had no feelings for Helmer, and she should have hated him.
But why did she feel so distressed the moment he knelt down, why did she feel so nervous the moment he fainted, when did she start to be emotionally affected by him?
Seeing E Ling crying silently, Yin Chen handed her a piece of animal skin handkerchief and said, "Don't cry. He must have suddenly reached a higher level and his body couldn't bear it, so he fainted. Feed him some spirit crystals and he should wake up soon."
E Ling took the handkerchief and asked, "Is the spiritual energy useful?"
"It should be useful. After all, he has the blood of a divine bird and has a high affinity for spiritual energy." Yin Chen was stunned for a moment after answering, and looked at her with unbelievable eyes, "E Ling, are you going to..."
E Ling did not answer him, but her actions had already responded.
Her soft lips suddenly pressed against Helmer's mouth, transferring some spiritual power to him.
Hermi's face regained its rosy color visibly.
Yin Chen was struck by lightning. When E Ling briefly separated from Helmai, Yin Chen pulled her away somewhat out of control, gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice: "E Ling, are you going to accept him? Do you really want to take Helmai and completely submit to Goddess Zi Ling and become her puppet?!"
Ever since the Goddess Zi Ling took E Ling abducted to command Hermai, Yin Chen felt that something was wrong.
Zi Ling's behavior seemed like she wanted to put an end to the chaos that Helmer had created today, but it was more accurate to say that she was using Helmer's submission to further expand her own power.
The people of Celestial City seemed to be united, and Goddess Zi Ling had the highest status among all the goddesses, but as far as Yin Chen knew, there were always forces dissatisfied with the goddess.
For example, the radical faction headed by the Goddess Langyu in the city has always been dissatisfied with the gentle approach of the Goddess Ziling. They advocate the rectification of the existence of evil beasts in the orc group and the fight with the Earth Demon Clan. They will not stop until the Earth Demon Clan disappears.
Instead of being like Zi Ling who gently negotiated with the Earth Demon Clan and allowed the existence of evil beasts, they actually allowed a hybrid of the Divine Bird Clan and the Earth Demon Clan who had led evil beasts to become the leader of the Divine Bird Clan.
Yin Chen was sure that before long, the Goddess Langyu would make a fuss about this matter.
So, in order to maintain the current situation and prevent Zi Ling from failing in her efforts to push Helmer to a high position, she must take some actions, and even need to train some puppets for her use.
The only puppet who can both stabilize Helmer and be willing to be used by her is E Ling.
"E Ling, you must be more careful about everything. You can't agree to everything Goddess Zi Ling asks you to do just because you want to save Chang Ze. Otherwise, you will be easily controlled by her!"
For the sake of E Ling's safety, Yin Chen had to remind her.
Unexpectedly, E Ling's expression suddenly became solemn, and she whispered:
"You've discovered it, haven't you? Yin Chen, don't worry, I know my limits in this matter. My obedience to her is just a delaying tactic. From the moment she held me hostage, I could sense that things were not as simple as they seemed.
She seems to be planning something, but we have no evidence. If we question her directly or even kill her, not only will no one believe it, but it will also lead to greater unrest. After all, she has so many believers in the City of Heaven. Just a random word can make Heer's situation even more difficult..."
E Ling paused and continued, "While Helma is in a coma and needs some time to recover, I will try to get closer to her during the few days I stay in Tianzhi City. Once we get the evidence, we will discuss the next step."
Her gaze shifted to Helmer's legs again, a hint of ruthlessness flashing across her eyes.
"I said, I won't make Helbai kneel, and I will never become... a puppet that she can use whenever she wants."
E Ling's eyes were firm, and Yin Chen was relieved to see this. "That's good. If there is anything you need me for, just let me know."
E Ling nodded.
Yin Chen's gaze fell on Helmer again, "Then he..."
"Yin Chen, please go out first. I want to stay with Hull for a while."
There was a rare tenderness in E Ling's eyes when she looked at Helmei.
"You have already given him spiritual energy, so leave the rest to professional doctors. And he is so powerful that he won't die easily, so you don't have to worry too much. E Ling, you have been too tired today, I should take you to rest..."
Yin Chen told her all the reasons in his mind to dissuade her from staying.
E Ling interrupted calmly: "Yin Chen, I take back what I said in the cave. I...may have started to like He Er a little. I will worry about him, be nervous about him, and want to take care of his emotions. I hope he...wakes up soon."
"Then I..."
Looking at E Ling's sincere eyes, Yin Chen's unspoken words were completely blocked.
He really wanted to ask, what about him? What was he? If she could like Hermione, why couldn't she like him? What was wrong with him? !
But he still didn't have the heart to say these questions to her.
When he turned and left, he felt heartbroken.
Forget it.
What to ask?
It's just asking for humiliation.
The door was slammed shut.
For a moment, the only noises in the room were the sound of Helmei's even breathing and Eling's uncontrollable heartbeat.
Her fingers couldn't help but touch Helmer's dry lips, but she said with some sadness: "I was the one who said that I would never fall in love with you, but in the end I couldn't control my feelings for you. Nagasawa is still unconscious, but I fell in love with another male here. I am really a very bad partner... Hel, please wake up soon."
E Ling kissed his lips again, wanting to give him some more spiritual power.
A hand suddenly covered the back of her head, deepening the kiss.
The familiar aura of Helmer enveloped her completely.
E Ling raised her eyes, but met Helmei's bloodshot eyes filled with smiles.
After a hasty kiss, E Ling looked at Helmai who was staring at her in surprise, and her face became hot. "Helmai, when did you wake up?!"
