Chapter 537：#007 the Killer King (End)

What Tang Wan didn’t expect was that while they were still moving through the sea, Hei Tong suddenly woke up in her arms.

But it wasn’t surprising—his body had been genetically modified and was highly resistant to anesthetics.

The moment he regained consciousness and realized they were deep underwater, shock flashed across his face.

“Wanwan—”

But in the water, his voice couldn’t reach her.

Fortunately, Tang Wan noticed he was awake. She quickly adjusted the diving device, wrapped an arm around him, and propelled them toward the surface.

Breaking through the water, they both took a deep breath.

Tang Wan looked at him anxiously. “Tong Tong, how do you feel?”

“I’m fine… but why are we in the sea?” Hei Tong asked, scanning their surroundings.

There was no sign of land anywhere.

Tang Wan explained quickly, “Jin Dao was surrounded. I injured Dr. Tang and the others, used her access card to escape, and even blew up a helicopter to fake our deaths. Right now, everyone thinks we’re dead. As long as we leave this area, we’ll be free!”

She flashed him a bright smile.

Hei Tong’s heart trembled.

Then guilt flooded his expression. “I’m sorry… I couldn’t protect you.”

He had watched her strapped to that table… unable to stop them.

He didn’t deserve her love.

Tang Wan shook her head immediately. “It’s not your fault! I know you were suffering too—you wanted to protect me. And in the end… you chose me, didn’t you?”

“You… don’t blame me?” Hei Tong looked at her, moved.

“Why would I? You’re my favorite Tong Tong in the world!” she said, smiling brightly.

At that, Hei Tong couldn’t hold back any longer.

He lowered his head and kissed her fiercely, like a storm breaking loose.

“Ding! Congratulations, Host. The mission is complete. You successfully prevented the destruction of Jin Dao and the deaths of thousands of researchers. Would you like to remain in this world?”

Little Cutie’s voice sounded faintly.

But Tang Wan had no time to respond.

Because right now—

Tong Tong’s emotions were burning hot, and she was completely immersed in them.

After a while, a wave rolled over them.

Hei Tong finally pulled back, looking at her with deep affection. “Wanwan… thank you for loving me. Thank you for forgiving me…”

Tang Wan smiled softly. “I love—”

Before she could finish—

A massive shadow surged from beneath the water.

In the next instant, a huge maw burst open like a net.

Everything happened too fast.

Their bodies were torn apart by overwhelming force—

Sharp teeth pierced through flesh.

“Shit—!” Tang Wan heard the sickening sound of tearing.

“Tong… Tong…”

She tried to reach for him—

But her arm wouldn’t move.

Blood spread across the surface of the sea, staining it red.

Moments later, the water churned—

And the crimson sea was swallowed along with them.

The predator flicked its tail and disappeared back into the depths.

As if nothing had happened.


Translator's Note:

A comparatively shorter arc with this one. To me it felt a little boring, personally, just not my fav... how about you? Did you like it?

Chapter 1: Got Dumped on the Day of the Wedding

 Translator's Note Before we begin—I'll just take a moment of your time! ๐ŸŒธ I know this is a bit of a wall of text to encounter before the actual novel, so I'll keep it simple: please take a moment to read this first so you know what to expect from this translation. After this chapter, you can happily skip these notes unless there's something new I need to mention. I promise I won't make you read this before every chapter. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm sharing this translation simply because I translated this novel for myself, enjoyed it, and thought that perhaps other readers with similar tastes might enjoy it too. I'm a huge fan of quick-transmigration (ๅฟซ็ฉฟ) novels, especially the kind where the protagonist is already extremely capable—or becomes overpowered very quickly—and gets to go through different worlds, counterattack, face-slap, and generally make life difficult for people who deserve it. I usually don't gravitate toward QT novels that focus heavily on favorabi...

Chapter 2: Does It Matter If I Am Gay?

When the male makeup artist heard Tang Wan’s words, he was immediately stunned. The others around him looked at him with envy, wishing Tang Wan would casually point at them instead. That was five billion! After a while, the male makeup artist finally reacted. His face flushed red as he asked, “Is it okay if I’m gay?” “It doesn’t matter if you’re gay or anything else. As long as you hold a wedding with me, the five billion will be yours!” Tang Wan said. “I agree!” he replied excitedly, nodding desperately. Tang Wan snapped her fingers when she heard this. “Okay! You guys, hurry up and change his clothes and fix his styling!” Hah! Did they really think she absolutely had to marry Sun Wu? Three-legged toads were hard to find, but there were plenty of two-legged men in the world! ... Hearing Tang Wan’s words, the others immediately got busy, pressing the temporary groom into a chair while applying makeup and changing him into a suit. Half an hour later, Tang Wan wor...

Chapter 3: I Am Your Father

“Even if what you say is true, what exactly are you?” “I’m not a thing! I’m a system! Haven’t you ever read system novels before?” the child said loudly. Tang Wan finally couldn’t hold back her laughter. “Your name really is Daddy? Can’t your name be changed? I could even be your mother. Aren’t you embarrassed making me call you Daddy?” “The name can’t be changed. Every system has a serial number, and my number is called Daddy!” In reality, his number was 88. But since 88 sounded like “Daddy,” why not let the host call him father? He really was a clever little ghost, taking advantage of the host verbally like this! He silently gave himself a thumbs-up. ... Looking at his old-fashioned expression, Tang Wan couldn’t help stepping forward and reaching out her hands to knead his cheeks. “It feels nice, just like a real person. Are you actually alive?” Tang Wan asked in surprise. As Tang Wan pinched his cheeks, they immediately turned red. Then, with a stern expression...
