“NUE_MOURNFULLY_MOANS_AND_WAILS，JUST_LIKE_EVERY_OTHER_DAY。 (The tiger thrush cries as before)"

In her ears, the singing voice in a special language came from the depths of the sea, and the singing voice seemed to be a thousand people, like ten thousand people singing for her, and the girl could understand the meaning of the song instinctively.

It was a lament for her untimely death.

In front of the girl, the huge squid leisurely dived deeper into the sea, as if deliberately guiding him, the speed of the squid is not very fast, and sometimes it will stop and wait for the girl.

In this way, the girl swam deeper into the sea.

“ALL_FLOWERS_AND_BUDS_SHALL_PASS。 (Suddenly looking back at the remnants of a hundred flowers)"

In the mournful voice, the girl finally saw some light in the deepest part of the dark seabed......

There, it's a fantastic underwater city.

Scattered exquisite houses are scattered all over the city, a magnificent underwater flybridge interspersed in the city, fountains and statues can be seen everywhere, it is like a garden, countless flowers fall from the sky above the city, and then turn into an endless rain of flowers, walking in the city, it is like walking in a sea of flowers.

A tall and strange snake man with scales on his body, a mermaid with a beautiful upper body and a fish on the lower body, a fishman with a hideous face and a weapon in his hand...... There are also all kinds of strange creatures that seem to be inhuman, all of which are moving forward in this fantastic city.

And in this underwater city, there is still water flowing.

No, it wasn't water, it was moonlight, bound by spells, and it flowed like a river in the city.

The prosperity is endless, as if it is boundless and prosperous.

The girl looked at everything in front of her in amazement, and there was only one thought in her mind......

"Nanno ......"

Only this snake people in the swampy world, the underwater city in the ancient legend, can have such a flourishing scene.

“LIKE_AS_COMFORT_IN_MIND_WHICH_RUNS_AWAY_IN_A_MOMENT。 (It's like I'm gone)"

As the girl got closer and closer to the legendary city, something else began to appear beside him......

A snake man riding a huge whale and wearing ancient armor looked at her in some surprise, but then, as if remembering something, he came to his senses and saluted her chest respectfully.

The girl didn't understand why, and there was some confusion in her eyes.

However, in front of her, the giant squid was dissatisfied, and it made a quick and short sound, urging the girl to follow it.

“ALL_THE_GODS_ARE_TO_COME_IN_A_NEW_ERA。 (Gods of the Ocene)"

In her ears, the singing became clearer and clearer, so that the girl could vaguely judge the location of the singing.

From the midst of a vast palace towering far above all other buildings, the song that called to her in her ears came from the palace.

The song that made her feel a little sad called to her, although she didn't know what she was grieving about.

In her mind, there was a faint female figure, as if it was familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was, and it was still getting more and more blurred......

Before the girl knew it, the memories of the living were fading away in her mind.

“IN_THE_BREAKING_LIGHT_OF_DAWN，NUE_WILL_SING_ALL_OVER_AGAIN。 (Luminous Tiger Thrush Cry)"

The bare ankles fell on the solid stone slab.

In front of the girl, unlike the previous feeling of overlooking the city from above, after stepping into the city, she can really feel the vastness and grandeur of the city.

Towering buildings everywhere made her look insignificant.

In the rain of flowers, a falling petal gently fell on her body.

She didn't know where she was supposed to go, but she just felt that it seemed like it was good to walk in the direction of the song.

“BUDS_BLOOM，WORSHIP_THE_GODS。 (Flowers bloom and pray to God)"

Many female voices came into her ears.

A young girl of no more than eleven or twelve, wearing a slightly oversized ornate robe, had a face as pure as a clear sky, and there was some confusion in her clear eyes.

Beside her, all the snake people and creatures she saw on the way bowed respectfully to her figure, muttering praises to the prestige of the father and daughter of the snake.

For these, for some reason, her heart was not touched in the slightest, as if this was a matter of course.

She ignored the figures who bowed down to her, and simply walked in the direction of the tallest palace.

“IN_THIS_LIFE，MEN_EXIST_WITH_HOLLOW_BODIES。 (Floating in the air)"

Along the way, there were crowds of people trying to bow down to her, and in the eyes of these people, she was the embodiment of the Snake Girl, and the reverence for the Snake Girl made it difficult for them to suppress their admiration.

Whether it's praying or praising it, there are different reasons for worship, but only the fervor is the same.

However, no matter how fervently she worshipped, no one dared to stop her advance, and they spontaneously avoided a wide road that would allow her to lead directly in the direction of the palace.

“WHEN_DREAMS_ARE_GONE。 (Dream Gone)"

In the rain of flowers, the girl looked at the palace in front of her, and behind the gate, she could only vaguely see the hundreds of steps inside, and the temple located on the high hill in the palace.

In front of him, the gate of the towering palace had long been opened to visitors, but no one dared to approach it, and no one dared to enter it.

In her ears, the melodious singing was still there, but the girl was already vaguely aware that she was afraid that only she could hear this singing.

For some reason, when she listened to the song, there was a faint pain in her heart, as if if she would lose something extremely precious if she entered this palace......

A vague figure echoed in her mind from time to time, but she couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, beautiful or ugly.

Probably...... Once you go in, you'll understand everything.

She thought to herself and walked forward.

“ALL_DISAPPEAR_WITH_ETERNAL_REGRET。 (Hate Drifting)"

After walking hundreds of steps, the girl did not feel tired, or how could a dead man's body feel tired?

In front of him was the gate of the temple, which was just hidden, not closed, waiting for someone to push it open.

The singing gradually stopped.

The girl held out her hand.

In my mind, the figure had completely disappeared, empty, and there was no memory of it.

She calmly pushed the ...... away

"Rolling ......"

Inside the temple, there is a new world, blue sky, white clouds, clear water, and streams...... And the beautiful figure with a bright and beautiful face who was watching her with curious eyes.

Those women are tall, delicate, gentle, or heroic...... And so on, as if the beauties of the whole world are included in this world.

The only characteristic between them is that they all have a pair of erect snake pupils, and this does not destroy their beauty, but adds a bit of strange beauty.

"There's a little sister here......"

They looked at the young girl curiously, and quietly bit each other's ears and said something.

Among these many figures, there is one figure that is particularly eye-catching, with long red silky hair, calm and atmospheric bearing, and majesty between every move, which can be described as the most brilliant pearl among these many beauties.

At this moment, the Snake Girl walked into the girl's side, took her hand with a soft white arm, and whispered to her.

"For 10,000 years, every 100 years, I will choose a maid to perform singing and dancing and music for my father, and you are the hundredth, understand? ”

The girl didn't ask anything, and from the moment she stepped inside, she knew what she was supposed to do.

The Snake Girl took her by the hand, and under the gaze of many eyes, she walked to a place in the stream, and the girl sat down silently, and muttered prayers along with the many maids of the Snake Girl.

......

And in the deepest part of the seabed, the great snake that had been sleeping for a long time slowly opened its eyes, listened to the prayer in its ears, and thought to itself.

"Has it been 10,000 years? ”
