Chapter 2: A Maverick Fish

In the ocean, no fish dares to say that it can fully master the complex waterway environment. But in autumn, when the ice fissures of the deep sea have begun to cool down, the warm and humid circulation from the south arrives, along with abundant seafood and all kinds of magical gifts from the sea.

The mermaids' favorite thing to do at this time is to put on their most beautiful decorations and dance and sing all night long on the open underwater beach. Singing the generous sea god gave them a full four or five months without having to run for a difficult livelihood.

Even old Penny, who is too old to have teeth, will come to the natural dance floor with a bridal crown from hundreds of years ago to twist and feel the howl of young people, in her words, it is almost like returning to the green age when she was married.

In the past, people's favorite little Allen, even if he is usually shy and delicate, but at this time he will enthusiastically present a song in the fish, last year's wonderful dance and flexible waist are still hovering in the minds of Mr. Mermaids, but at this time the protagonist we are thinking about is obviously not on the scene, so what is he doing?

Not far from the natural dance floor, where laughter and laughter can still be carried by guò water in a peculiar wave way, our Mr. Blackfish is hiding deep in a rocky forest, doing some ...... Well, strange movements, a slight wheezing sound is a fish that will blush when they hear it.

Yes, under the impact of a series of events that surpassed his original common sense, our Mr. Blackfish quickly adapted to life here with his straightforward and rough way of thinking, learned the mermaid's special way of speaking, and found his immediate life goal, well, that's what he is doing now.

Although the high pressure of thousands of meters of deep sea had no effect on the mermaid itself, it was a difficult thing for Cheng Dù, who was now a delicate person in Allen's body, to lift a stone weighing about a pound above his head.

It sounds like a refutation that goes against the common sense of physics, but since he knew that magic existed in this world, Alan had completely abandoned physics.

Oh, fuck common sense.

Some obscure legends of Tong Guò, translated to something like this, the mermaid is the life given by the sea, holds part of the power of the sea god, and is recognized by the water as a being. That is to say, the mermaid is born with a certain amount of enchantment, and the effect of the water has no effect on it, but the mermaid can manipulate the water as it pleases. It's just a bug in nature.

Although the particularity of the original body did make Alan feel a lot more relieved, he still couldn't bear such a mother's body at all. So now he's working out, yes, that's right, it's fitness! The first intelligent species to exercise fitness in the deep sea of more than 3,000 meters seems to be worth documenting.

At this time, Alan is elegantly ...... Lifting stones, coughing, fitness.

In fact, some time ago, Alan had tried other methods to change his current damn physical fitness.

I had heard that swimming was the most toned of all sports, and with the innate advantage he now had, Allen made a plan to swim around the town ten times a day.

In the first few months, the fish who got up to move would often randomly pick up little Allen who had fainted for unknown reasons.

After that, there was all kinds of confusion to help check or something, but they all subsided under the corners of Allen's stiff and closed mouth, and I don't know what the fish made up from Allen's completely unchanged face, anyway, after Allen's several times of detachment and fainting, he would always find that he had slept on a soft bed when he woke up.

Cut, what a bunch of nosy stupid fish.

After that, Alan subconsciously increased the radius of the circle, and it was rare for him to faint because he didn't have the strength to control it.

Three months is enough for the beast to give birth to a healthy little bar. Mr. Blackfish's persistent circle swimming plan has also achieved initial results, and it seems to be ...... Growing a little taller?

Sure enough, lifting a stone is the right choice...... Right?

So now Alan spends most of his time lifting rocks, no, local fitness.

While the other fish leisurely enjoyed the caress of the sea, Alan searched for suitable stones, coughs, and equipment in the Stone Forest.

So the fish saw their lovely little Allen, blushing, biting into the cherry bite, and carrying the stones that were not at all beautiful to the house.

The next day, Allen, who received all kinds of colorful ores, had a wonderful face...... I couldn't see anything, but at least it wasn't the one who kept his face open.

So Mr. Blackfish wittily shifted his position.

Lately, the fish have not been able to find a shadow at all, except when they are foraging for food. Even at this grand ball, the neatly dressed Hammer confidently invited Alan again, but he couldn't see the slender figure at all, so he had to go to the open-air dance floor alone.

Mr. Blackfish, who has been talked about all the time, has been sticking to his stone-lifting exercise for almost a month, and it is just when it is about to bear fruit, how can he delay his workout because of a dance party that he is not interested in. Although a certain blackfish who was lifting a stone at this time seemed to have feelings of weakness in a certain corner of his heart when he heard the song in the distance, this did not affect the determination of a blackfish who aspired to be a tough guy.

Exhalation (water) Inhalation (water)

OK, come again.

Hey, hey

There is a reflection in Mr. Blackfish's resolute sea-blue eyes, that is, he is strong and has a tough guy body, which is also the goal he has been striving for.

It's so inspiring!

But when he stopped and turned his head, Alan touched his slender and flexible waist and straight buttocks again, and inexplicably fell into a short period of contemplation......

Then our Mr. Blackfish pursed his lips and began his self-created rock-lifting* again, still a standard movement that could be recorded in a textbook, but the shadow behind Eren seemed to have deepened a little.

In the evening, the night in the deep sea always came very early, the laughter on the dance floor had disappeared, and even though the merfolk had night vision, Alan was still not used to the silence and cold darkness around him.

Looking up at the deep and boundless sea, Alan pinched his palm, the webbed fingers were still not used to it, he couldn't stay at the bottom of the sea forever, even the unconditional and simple trust and care of the stupid fish still couldn't keep Alan, because he knew that no matter what he became, he would never belong here.

Looking down at his fishtail, although objectively speaking, this is indeed a beautiful tail, mysterious as obsidian-like scales, delicate and delicate, although the color is single, but the different levels of light refracted in the swimming make it look more noble and elegant, just ......

Walking on land with a fishtail is obviously not a good idea.

The black fishtail patted the ground, and Alan gave up these questions that had no result even if he thought about it, and swam quickly in the direction of home, and continued to lift rocks, cough, and exercise in his home.

Think of a fitness program that is more suitable for the body, such as...... How to build abs.

Since the fish's tail replaced his legs, Alan found that he could no longer do crunch exercises, and when he lay down, the fishtail slapping on the bed was loud enough to lure the worried blue-tailed mermaid neighbor over.

This means that Alan is the only ab training movement that Allen knows...... Invalidated.

What a sad topic.

If...... It's just a leg, Alan thought when he got home.

Back to the problem of not being able to think of a result.

Alan irritably threw the stone in his hand to the ground, and now he ...... It's ugly.

The irritability made Alan have no interest in exercising at all at this time, and the stupid action ......

Slapping the ground hard, Alan spun around the room in annoyance.

He hated thinking about them, and Eren realized that digging deeper would drive him crazy.

Phew, make this damn weak body stronger first, and get out of the way!

"Lanka, have you ever heard about the mermaid's tail changing legs?" At night, Alan knocks on Bluetail's neighbor's door, well, even if you don't dig deeper, it's going to drive people crazy if you don't dig deeper.

"Oh, Alan, you're finally here, I said a long time ago that a fish is not good for psychological growth, and I have been inviting you to live in my house, and you finally agreed."

"It's not ......"

The enthusiastic Blue Card suddenly took Alan's hand, "Come on, go and sit inside, do you want to taste the sea snake pie I made?" ”

Thinking of a certain slippery, cold-blooded animal, even if he was interrupted, Alan quickly rejected Lanka's warm invitation to taste.

"It's a shame, I thought you'd like it." Lanka is a middle-aged mermaid, even if she ties the housewife's hairstyle, she still does not lose her charm, and at this time she blinks her eyes as gentle as water, and the young woman's tender offensive is very powerful.

Alan nodded with difficulty. He seems to have forgotten something......

The small black and yellow pastries, floating lightly in the vacuum bubbles, did not look as scary as imagined, Alan had a wooden face and ate the real thing warmly recommended by the blue card.

Thinking of the strange things he might bite, Alan didn't chew much and quickly dealt with all the sea snake pies.

"Sure enough, I knew Alan was going to like it." Lanka propped his head and happily came to the conclusion, "I'll make it for you next time, don't be in such a hurry." ”

"Ahem, ahem," Alan choked out at once, "It's not ......"

"Ah, what was it that Eren said when he first came in? Need my help? ”

……

"Ms. Blue Card ......"

"Call Auntie." Lanka smiled and corrected Alan's mistake.

"Blue Card...... Auntie, I appreciate your hospitality, but I hope to listen to me when I talk to you in the future. Alan finally uttered a complete sentence, and with a long sigh of relief, he looked at Lanka, hoping that the lady would be somewhat conscious.

"Oh, really? You're welcome, the hospitality that satisfies Alan is the greatest compliment to me. ”

And maybe add that don't just listen to half a sentence......

Alan suppressed his irritable feelings, and continued to ask in a calm tone as much as possible, "Okay, I actually have some questions I want to ask Lanka for advice." ”

"If you don't call me Auntie, I feel like it's okay to call Sister Lanka." Blue Ka held his cheeks and winked at Alan like a flower girl.

Alan was unmoved, looked at Lanka for a while, then got up and pulled out the chair, "I'm sorry, I think I should retire, thank you again for your hospitality." Then he turned and walked out.

"Oh, how can it be, it's so late, let's rest directly at my sister's place." Lanka hurriedly got up and wanted to save Allen, who didn't look back.

"I don't think so, goodbye." Alan felt that if he stayed for another second, he would not be able to help but flick his tail.

Getting rid of the reluctant Blue Card, Alan collapsed on the bed of shells with some detachment.

Tsk, stupid fish are trouble, and female stupid fish are even more troublesome.

Smash your mouth, it seems that the previous sea snake pie tasted good?

Thinking like this, Alan fell asleep groggily. In his sleep, Alan went back to the past, he was holding a 7.62mm sniper rifle to look for the shadow of the target, but he accidentally misfired, but fortunately a jet of water erupted from the gun, and then all the water droplets fell to his feet, turning into a black rope that tied himself at once, and he couldn't break free no matter how he moved. The gunshots are getting closer and closer, and they will be discovered soon, and Alan is anxiously using various methods, but he can't move at all.

Fear gradually crept over his heart, and the shadow of death gradually crept up on Alan.

Break away, bastard, where did all the strength go?!

Writhing, rubbing, struggling, Alan used all his strength until he was exhausted, and fell to the ground dying, looking at the muzzle of the black hole that was getting closer and closer to him, Alan closed his eyes unwillingly, and jumped up with all his might, wanting to make a last fight.

Then

Smack

Something seems to have broken......
