The Deep Blue Forbidden Zone: The Merman Lord's Favorite Scientist

[Two male leads + both pure + forced love + imprisonment + growing together]

In a future deep-sea exclusion zone, Lin Yu, an optimistic and handsome marine biologist, is just a nobody aboard the deep-sea research platform Explorer.

His investigation into strange sonar signals leads him to uncover the bloody, twisted truth behind the slaughter aboard the wealthy elite's cruise ship, Paradise. Then the cold deep-sea currents drag him into the abyss of death

He is rescued by the true ruler of these waters, Cang Ming, a ruthless merfolk leader who scorns humanity. From then on, he becomes the deep-sea forbidden zone's sole “exclusive prey.”

But as the darkest side of human nature closes in, a pure soul and the mysteries of the deep become the only light capable of breaking injustice and tearing through despair.
