Chapter 58: Karl

"What about Vincent? How is he now. Alan grabbed Arthur at once.

"It's okay, go back with me to heal first." Arthur pressed down on his head, "Obedient." ”

Alan broke free from his grip, his face was not very good, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Don't worry, he's also my friend, and he'll definitely get him back." Arthur was good-natured and comforted Alan.

"Then I'll stay in the sea first, and then I'll leave after confirmation." Alan turned his head away from him.

Arthur narrowed his eyes and looked a little headache, "Aren't you worried about what's going on on the elves' side?" Or are you afraid of going to an elven colony? ”

Alan raised his head all of a sudden, glaring at him as if he was trying to prove it, "How is it possible, I, what am I afraid of!" ”

But when he saw the smiling expression on Arthur's face, he understood that he seemed to have been tricked, and his expression suddenly turned cold, "I don't go to land." ”

"Don't make a fuss." Arthur reached out again and rubbed Alan's hair, "If I had known that these things would happen in the sea, I would have let you stay on land all the time." ”

"Let go!" Alan blushed and slapped his hand away, looking ashamed and angry.

Looking at his awkward brother in front of him, Arthur touched his chin darkly, "But that's okay, even if the elven settlement falls, you will have nothing to do in the sea." The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was better, why did he help outsiders abduct his younger brother.

I don't know which sentence touched Allen, and his expression changed, "I'll stay in the sea to help clean up the fortress first, and then go to land in a few days." ”

Looking at Allen's expression, Arthur knew that he would not change his plan again, and nodded, "Okay, you can follow Carl when the time comes, and try to act with him in the next few days." ”

Alan didn't refute anything, nodded and said goodbye to Arthur first, he hadn't had a good rest since the battle in this sea area began, and he was still injured, so he immediately returned to the stronghold to rest.

Many people know that Arthur came to him, plus more than one person saw his mutated form in the previous battle, as well as the characteristic blue protective water curtain, so the news that he is the heir of the Blue family has spread from the army, although he has gained a lot of curious eyes along the way, but after a war, everyone is exhausted, and no one has come to disturb his rest.

But...... Who is Carl? Thinking about something that he didn't have, Alan quickly fell asleep.

This sleep was more comfortable than ever, although the physical pain protested from time to time, but it was much better than the previous state of constant vigilance, and when Alan woke up, he was still a little confused, the room was dark, and the door was shining with the warm light unique to the sea stone lamp, and when he straightened up, he found that the wounds on his body had been bandaged.

"How does it feel?" A somewhat hoarse voice suddenly rang out from the room.

"Who's there." Alan couldn't help but shudder, he didn't even realize it before, and his five senses were much weaker in this state than before.

There seemed to be a chuckle from the other side, and a figure appeared in front of Alan with his back to the light outside the door, "Carl, you should already know. ”

Nodding, Alan immediately recalled what Arthur had told him before, but thinking that it was in the dark, he said again, "Got it, is there something wrong?" ”

“…… It's okay, I'm coming to see you. Carl sat down in front of him as if he didn't realize Allen's coldness.

Only then did Alan realize that the person in front of him had no fish tail, and his two slender legs left a beautiful silhouette in the dim light. But the man gave him even more weird feelings, and out of politeness, Alan didn't say anything.

When I turned on the sea stone lamp with my eyes closed, the warm yellow light immediately filled the whole room, and when I got used to it, when I opened my eyes again, I was greeted by a pair of blood-red eyes.

This made Alan immediately think of Vincent, who was still unknown to him, and lowered his head unnaturally, and asked cautiously, "Are you and Vincent relatives?" ”

"Well, yes."

"Sorry......"

Carl seemed stunned for a moment, but quickly returned to normal, "It's not your fault. ”

Then there was a strange silence in the room.

Carl looked at Alan quietly, the look in his eyes was a little dark, "When are you going to go back to land." ”

"What about you?" Alan was a little reserved.

"Arthur asked me to take you."

Alan felt as if he felt even more guilty, "It's okay, don't worry about me, I can go back to land by myself." ”

Carl was stunned for a moment, he originally meant to listen to Alan whenever he returned to land, but what was the situation now.

"I mean, if you want to go to Vincent yourself, leave me alone." Alan added again.

Well, he and Vincent are relatives now...... Carl felt as if he had smashed his own foot with a casual remark, but he couldn't show it yet, so he could only continue to stiffen his face, "It's my responsibility to take you back to land." ”

Alan suddenly felt ashamed of his current privileged status, "Don't worry, before I go back to land, I will accompany you to find Vincent, he is a very capable person, he will definitely be fine." ”

Carl nodded with a tangled face, acquiescing to Allen's statement, "No matter what the result is, Vincent is his own choice, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

Alan smiled a little unnaturally, although Carl's words were a little uncomfortable, Alan could still feel the comfort between his words, "Let's go, let's go help first." ”

"There's not much you can do right now, you can rest first." Carl blocked the doorway again.

Alan frowned, and found that it was indeed quiet outside, and everyone seemed to be still resting, "But I have already rested." ”

Carl glanced at his body meaninglessly, "What about the bandages on your body, decorative?" ”

Alan shrugged unconcernedly, "Of course, this is a man's ornament." ”

Can't help but laugh, Carl turned his body sideways and let the door out, "Okay, I'll accompany you out for activities." ”

"Hopefully you'll be able to keep up." Alan glanced meaninglessly at his legs.

What a stupid fish not to be outdone, Carl raised his eyebrows and slowly followed, he fell behind intentionally or unintentionally along the way, so that Alan also had to swim slowly, otherwise this guy didn't care about his wounds at all.

The tail sweeping work on the battlefield is still going on, such as the disposal of corpses, the recovery of weapons, and the reconstruction of trenches, all of which require a lot of manpower and material resources...... Alan was also looking forward to it, although he may have known the result in his heart, standing on the battlefield, he couldn't help but clench his fists.

"Stupid you." Carl grabbed Allen's wrist at once, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, "Are you going to give up the Sharp Claw weapon from now on?" "Allen's hand was the worst wound, not only did he have all his nails broken, but he also broke several finger bones.

Alan frowned, shook off Carl's hand, pursed his lips unnaturally, and said a little detachedly, "Thank you for your concern." ”

"Okay, do you want to look elsewhere?" Karl raised an eyebrow as if he hadn't seen his reaction.

Alan didn't say much, after all, he hadn't known each other for a long time, although Carl gave him a familiar sense of disobedience, "Let's go to the sea, there are some people I knew there before, I want to see how they are." ”

"Well, let's go." Karl lowered his head and followed him, unable to make out his expression.

Alan slowly swam up, although the battle has been over for a while, but those tragic pictures still seem to be in front of him, although the scavenger has cleaned up this sea area, but there seems to be a trace of blood floating in the sea, the more upstream Alan feels heavier, because he doesn't know if the mermaids who only have one side are still there, if calculated according to the proportion of casualties, the death toll of the sea war is undoubtedly the largest.

Although most of the merfolk at the bottom of the sea have begun to rest, the merfolk on the sea have only begun to move, and the sea illuminated by the cold moonlight is their favorite. Some of the wreckage of the ships had sunk to the bottom, some had dispersed with the flow of the sea, and there were several warships parked alone on the surface of the sea, all of which had been damaged by different degrees of damage.

After the code, Alan and Carl boarded the ship together, and the faces that had only been photographed in the recent war suddenly became clear in their minds, especially when they saw the corpses lying flat on the deck, and the faces that were serene or painful were matched with the memories. He subconsciously looked for the old man who kept setting up flags for himself before the war, but he was coldly patted on the shoulder.

"Are you looking for me? The little young master of the Blue family. A hearty and old voice sounded behind him.

Alan turned around in some surprise, but stopped when he saw Harvey's current situation, the left half of the mermaid's body with gray hair and beard was bandaged, his entire left hand was gone, and only half of his left leg was left.

Sensing Allen's gaze, Harvey sighed expressionlessly: "I won't be able to swim in the sea in the future." Then he smiled a little happily, "But my daughter's wedding can still be attended." ”

Alan pursed his lips, not knowing what to say, "Are you going home?" ”

"Yes, I can be discharged from the army when the next batch of soldiers comes." Harvey's expression changed, and then he patted Allen on the shoulder with his only intact hand, "I really want my daughter to be safe and happy after she gets married, and there is no mermaid poacher to hurt my future grandson, but I may not be able to do it." Perhaps aware of Alan's young age, Harvey didn't say the next words, and this heavy plea would put pressure on the child.

"I'm ......" Alan opened his mouth, his passion and impulsiveness making him want to say something, but at the same time he found himself unable to make any promises, "I'll do my best." ”

The conversation between the two didn't mention what to do, but Harvey smiled a little, "I really didn't expect to see the warriors of the Blue family with my own eyes." ”

Alan turned his face away uncomfortably, but saw Carl leaning on the guardrail, his gaze also happened to meet, or he had been looking at Allen, after discovering Allen's gaze, Carl hooked the corners of his mouth inaudibly, and his eyes were complicated.

Alan suddenly became a little overwhelmed.
