Chapter 136: Discovery
After going to the sea, Xius felt that the scales on his body were cut off from the pressure of the seawater, and he had no problem breathing and could speak normally.
Two figures passed by Hughes, and if you look closely, they are Minnie mother and daughter, both of them have a faint blue light on their bodies, and there are also looming blue scales on their faces, and the two of them are like fish in water at the bottom of the sea, swimming as they want.
"This should be mermaid blood!" Xius guessed as he looked at the figures of the two people, and the features on their bodies were already obvious.
"Come on Hughes!" Gut could only shout loudly when he saw that Hughes was still far away.
"It's coming!" Hearing the call, Theseus also swam quickly in the direction of Gut.
As he went deeper, the scene of the seabed also unfolded in front of his eyes, all kinds of gorgeous corals and some strange creatures were overwhelmed, and Xiusi was curious to touch them one by one, and was immediately scared away.
"That's it!" Gut and Ryan stood next to a reef that was more than three meters tall and spiraled upside down in the shallow sea.
Seeing that Gut and they were standing together, Hughes also rushed over, and he still had some potions on his back, which was really a little inconvenient.
When Gute saw that everyone had arrived, he took out a golden conch, and after injecting spiritual power, the conch slowly grew larger, turning into an illusory shape and fusing with the reef.
"You guys go first!" Gut said to Ryan when he saw this, turning to Ryan and the others, who immediately entered the reef.
After entering, Xiusi and several people passed through a curtain of light, and officially entered the secret realm.
After waiting a few dozen meters, Gut's figure appeared in front of everyone, still holding the golden conch in his hand.
"You can find this kind of place!" Minnie seemed to wonder how Gut and Ryan found out about this place, after all, the location of this secret realm was too hidden.
"You don't know this, this is in the hands of the Sea Clan, as for how to know, it's a long story, I loved to study this when I was young, and the texture and style on this conch are obviously the key to something.
In the end, when Ryan and I happened to pass by here, this conch reacted, and the two of us investigated this sea area one by one, and finally determined that it was here. Gut didn't hide it either, and said it directly.
"Let's go, we have come in this secret realm once before, take a brief look, except for a large manor, there is nothing else in the entire secret realm!" When Ryan and Gut found this place, they came in first to investigate, but the things inside did not dare to move, who knows if there is any defensive witch array or something.
Although it is only a small secret realm, the scope is also very large, Xiusi estimates that there is at least a thousand acres of area, but this secret realm is filled with a large amount of seawater.
The manor in Ryan's mouth is on a small island surrounded by the sea, and there is only one way to the entire secret realm, which is the distance from where Xius is standing to the island.
"Let's go! This secret realm has been around for an unknown number of years, and even creatures shouldn't be able to live that long!" Ryan took the lead.
Several people also began to move towards the island, and their defensive positions were also turned on at any time, just in case.
The road is very long, Xiusi and his party walked for nearly an hour before they got to the island, the location of the island is very high, and they can overlook the entire secret realm.
This small secret realm is a standard circle, and there is no other place in the entire secret realm except this small island, the rest of the place is full of sea water, and this island only occupies one percent of the area of the secret realm.
"Let's go inside!" Gut looked at the manor, which had been left many traces by the power of time, and planned to officially explore the remnants of this manor.
"Shall we split up or ,,, then," Theseus suggested, looking at the vast manor.
"Let's go our separate ways! find the lab first, and talk about it elsewhere!" Gut thought about it and decided to go separately.
The most valuable place for a wizard is naturally his own laboratory, and the most valuable things in the entire manor should also be there.
So the group walked in all directions of the manor.
At this moment, in the sea outside the island, the sea surface that had been calm for thousands of years suddenly rolled up, and figures shuttled under the sea, constantly gathering in the direction of the island.
Hughes walked alone in the corridors of the manor, and he found that he could not do without information about the sea, whether it was the room or the decoration.
"Could it be that the owner of this place is a sea wizard?" Theseus looked at the patterns on the pillars of the hallway, all depicting mermaids and murals similar to the development of the Sea Clan.
"Is this the bedroom?" said Theseus, as he walked into an extraordinarily decorated room, looking at the interior and the unfinished bottle of wine.
Theseus picked up the wine and pulled the cork on it, and found that the wine inside had almost volatilized, only some viscous liquid was left at the bottom, and it didn't taste so good.
"Huh, this wall," Hughes suddenly found that one of the walls in the bedroom was completely obscured by a large portrait of a mermaid.
"Chip! Can you scan something?" instinctively instinctively, Hughes felt that there should be something in this painting.
"Drop! A faint energy reaction detected!"
"Is there something?" said Hughes, reaching out and fumbling with the portrait.
One of the scales on the mermaid caught the attention of Hughes.
"This one is a real mermaid with scales attached to it!" Hughes found that only this one was real with the scales of the mermaid on the portrait, and the rest were painted.
"But what does this mean?" Hughes did not remove the scales, but pondered the meaning of the scales.
"Scales, scales,,," Hughes thought as he continued to walk around the room to see if there was any other information.
"Drop! Scan soul energy!"
"Hmm, soul energy? interesting. Hearing the chip's words, Xius smiled at the corner of his mouth and stood in front of the mermaid portrait again.
"Do you want to come out on your own, or," Theseus said with an arc in his hand, and the meaning of his expression was already obvious.
"Don't don't, I'll come out, I'll be out right away!" A woman's exclamation suddenly came from inside the portrait, as if she was afraid that Hughes had actually discovered herself, and she was even more afraid of the wizard in Hughes's hands.
"Sure enough!" Hearing the voice, Xius knew that there was something wrong with his portrait, but fortunately the chip prompted him in time, otherwise he would not have been able to find it.
"Great, my lord!" the merfolk in the portrait rolled its eyes to look at Hughes.
"Aren't you hiding?" said Hughes, looking at her with a smile on his face.
"Don't dare, don't dare to hide in front of adults!" The mermaid soul knew its situation very well, and seemed to dare not disobey what Xius said.
"Tell me! What's the matter with you!" Theseus sat down, waiting for the explanation of the soul in front of him.
"That,,I,I'm just a soul imprisoned in the painting!" said and aggrieved, but unfortunately the soul of this mermaid could not be revealed, only the eyes could move.
"Zila!"
"Ah!!h
An arc of electricity was exchanged for a scream from the mermaid's soul.
"Do you want to try it again?" said Hughes's fingertips in an arc of lightning, ready to flick at any moment.
"No, no, no, I don't want it, I say, I say!" The mermaid soul was frightened by the Hughes, her soul no longer had much power, and she might disappear after a few more times.
"Wouldn't it be nice to do this earlier!" Theseus retracted the arc from his hand, and he felt that this soul was asking for trouble.
"I, I'm the guardian of the laboratory gates!" said the merfolk soul reluctantly.
"You're the guardian of the lab?" said Hughes stared at the portrait in disbelief, her strength wasn't like that.
"Really! I've only been here for too long, and the man said that he would find me a new shell after five hundred years of service for him, and then he played himself to death and left me here! He began to cry as he spoke.
"Zila!"
"Ahh
"He's the master of this place, right?"
