Chapter 446 The Mermaid Doesn't Be Cannon Fodder 23
However, if you want to enter the Holy Land, it is not so simple, and the endless mechanisms and hidden weapons make Tethys and his party overwhelmed.
After rushing through many obstacles, Tetis, with a group of men who were nearly half injured, finally confronted the Gaia people and Gu Xiaoxiao in front of the Holy Land.
In front of the gate of the Holy Land, there was a canal about three meters long and five meters wide, and Tethys and them were blocked on the opposite bank.
The black pressure in the canal is full of fish with sharp teeth, the length is the size of a baby's arm, but the dense appearance is very visually impactful, and what is even more disgusting is that these fish will devour each other.
Some of the fish were still struggling in the water with only half of their bodies left, ugly and hideously twisted together.
It's not hard to imagine how they survive in the canals where there is no light and no water and grass.
(Lingzi is broken, everyone don't want catfish and eels, don't Baidu, disgusting!) )
In the dim light, the teeth of the black fish glowed with a miserable white light, and the air was filled with a special fishy smell.
Tethys, dressed in leather boots, walked forward with unhurried steps,
His sharp gaze fell on Gu Xiaoxiao, a dark purple light flashed, Tethys raised his hand to straighten his collar, smiled meaningfully, and elegantly raised his arm towards Rude
After receiving Tethys's signal, Ruud stepped forward and shouted to the people opposite: "Listen to the natives of the island, we are from the Western Continent of Cerro, and the traitor Anthony and the evil mermaid have mixed with your tribe. They have other plans to approach you, and mermaids are the best at confusing humans. Slowly take the soul of the human race. ”
Rude deliberately lowered his voice to create a terrifying atmosphere, and when he talked about the soul, his finger pointed at Gu Xiaoxiao's side: "She." And she, and he, they are mermaids, who crawl out of the deep sea and sneak onto our boat to kill people. Anthony was bewitched by them, killed his companions who sailed with him, and escaped with them. ”
His voice echoed through the tunnels, and Tethys had a smile on his face. Ruud said spitting.
The fluorescence on the wall was very weak, and Rude exposed Gu Xiaoxiao's hidden identity in public, and the person behind him with a weapon on the side showed a smug expression.
In their opinion. The Gaia people had cooperated with Anthony and the others before, just because they didn't know the identity of Tatasi, and when they knew that they were mermaids, they would definitely feel terrified and scared.
Unexpectedly. The Gaia people after listening to Rude's words. Not only did they not show a look of surprise and fear, but they were extremely happy.
Even the patriarch, who had always been steady, couldn't help but turn around and ask Gu Xiaoxiao: "Distinguished guest, are you and your companions really a mermaid clan from the deep sea, the kindest mermaid clan in the world?" ”
He used two rhetorical questions in a row, and he almost stepped forward to grab Gu Xiaoxiao's hand and shook it, and the other Gaia people also looked very expectant.
This style of painting made the people on Tethys's side. One by one, their faces turned black into a pan.
Gaia's favorability is surging, not only Gu Xiaoxiao. Lodia, Randy, and Rand, who were nervous when Ruud's identity was revealed, were already a little confused.
They have little contact with humans, and the insidious treachery of Tetis, Anthony's sense of justice, and the warmth and kindness of the Gaia people give them a further understanding of the complexity of human beings.
Due to their first contact with humans, they were captured by Tethys in a vicious way, and when they came into contact with the Gaia, they and Tatasi concealed their identities as merfolks.
What they didn't expect was that the Gaia were more enthusiastic about them when they learned that they were merfolk.
No matter what the reason for concealment was, after being exposed, the Gaia clan had a more enthusiastic attitude, allowing Gu Xiaoxiao to take the lead in apologizing: "I'm sorry, we are indeed merfolk from the deep sea. But what Tethys said is all slander, we love peace and never take the initiative to conflict with human beings. ”
There was a commotion among the Gaia people, and the female voice that suddenly appeared in their minds was so shocking that they whispered to each other, and their eyes wandered over Tatasi, Lodia, and Randy, studying who was talking.
Seeing this, Gu Xiaoxiao gave a simple explanation in sign language, and then continued: "I am Tatasi, Tethys camouflaged a shipwreck on the sea, I rescued him and sent him to the ship, but he sent someone to catch him. Then, he used me to lure Lodea to Randy and Rand and lock us up in the aquarium. We managed to escape, but we encountered a tsunami before we took refuge on Gaia Island. Please be assured that we have no ill intentions, just fear of frightening you. ”
After listening carefully to Gu Xiaoxiao's words, the patriarch spoke, and he first said to her and Lodia, Randy, and Rand very kindly: "Please don't apologize, my distinguished guest, the people of Gaia are very welcome to your arrival. Our ancestors lost their way during the voyage, but thanks to the help of the kind merfolk people, they found Gaia Island. We welcome the Merfolk at all times! ”
In the end, the patriarch was a little excited, and the others echoed and cheered, welcoming the Tatasi and them again.
Tethys was self-defeating, and wanted to sow discord, but he made the other party more intimate: "They are the scum of the mermaid clan, don't believe their rhetoric, they will bring disaster to Gaia Island!" ”
"Please shut up, outsider, this is the holy place of the Gaia tribe, why you are here, please give us an explanation."
The patriarch was angry and lost his temper in front of the juniors for the first time, and he despised Tethys's despicable behavior, and even more disgusted with his reversal of black and white.
Tethys didn't reply, he was a proud man, he didn't bother to shout back and forth with the other party in public, and Ruud was still in charge of communication.
"Noble Patriarch, please believe that we are not sinister people, and that we have come to the Holy Land to explore the relics left by the great navigator Ahiro thousands of years ago. He was a well-deserved One Piece King thousands of years ago, and you are the descendants of One Piece, don't you want to gallop on the sea like him! ”
Before he came, Tethys had ordered several of his clever subordinates to discuss it together. How to lure the Gaia people into helping them enter the Holy Land, Rudd's words were the result of their deliberations.
There was a young Gaia man who showed a look of interest and eagerness. Let Ruud be happy in his heart: "We have the most abundant sailing equipment, can take the ferry of more than 1,000 people, as long as everyone is willing, we are willing to unconditionally accept everyone to sail together!" ”
Ruud tried to stir up the young people, and if someone was willing to go with them, they would encounter less resistance to entering the Holy Land.
The patriarch slammed his cane to the ground and drank, "The great Ahiro is our ancestor. Do not tarnish the name of your fathers with your vile mouths. The Gaia will always protect the Holy Land, so you might as well leave. The warriors of the Gaia tribe, if they want to conquer the sea, will rely on their own efforts. ”
The patriarch's words made some young people with floating minds cool down. Nearly a thousand years later. Gaia Island is isolated from the western continent, and the outside world has a strong allure for them.
In particular, the ancestor of the Gaia tribe, Ahiro, was a thousand years ago as the king of the seas, and they worshipped him and longed to fight like an eagle in the sea.
The words of the patriarch made them calm, and the conquest of the sea could be done by their own efforts, and they must not fall for the despicable man of Tetis.
"You have to think about it, His Highness Tethys is the crown prince of the kingdom of Cerro, and follow him. You will have untold glory and wealth! ”
Ruud continued to seduce everyone, his face twitching. Eyes are frenzied.
The patriarch categorically refused: "You guys go, we will never agree to your unreasonable demands." ”
Tethys did not expect this to turn against the patriarch, but he was indignant that no one in the entire Gaia tribe had betrayed.
"So, are you insisting on going against Your Highness?"
"Your Highness is angry, and we will always be loyal to you."
Ruud seized the opportunity to curry favor with Tetis, and shouted at the Gaia people: "Tell you a very valuable news, eating the heart of the mermaid can cure all diseases and live forever, swallowing the soul bead of the mermaid, you can swim freely in the sea without restraint." ”
The more the Gaians were pretended, the more Tethys wanted to plant thorns in their midst, turning them against each other and turning Tatasi and Lodia into the target of the public.
The temptation of eternal youth is great, and swimming in the sea is also a pleasant thing, but if you kill a murderer for this purpose, the Gaia people will not do it, and they will not do anything to hurt their friends.
"Warriors of the Gaia tribe, do not be fooled by their rhetoric, take up your weapons and defend our holy land, our homeland, our relatives and friends!"
The patriarch called again, and the young men raised their weapons and glared at Tethys.
finally saw the legendary mermaid, and it was too late for them to establish a good relationship, how could they brutally hurt them.
The other party did not give in, and to Tethys's surprise, he let the wounded take the lead and find a way to cross the ditch, while he personally led a group of men, intending to rush over and defeat the Gaia after the passage was repaired.
Those with less serious injuries were driven to the front and tried to make an improvised path between the canals with planks and ladders.
They were terrified of the black monsters in the water, and they did not dare to disobey Tetis's orders, and their faces were full of despair as they acted.
The opponent had already begun to attack, and the patriarch ordered the warriors to fight back.
At the beginning of the first duel, the Gaias took out their bows and arrows, painted them with poisoned arrows, and flew like rain towards the part of the body that was trying to pave the way at the front.
Due to the variety of poisons on the island, it is very troublesome to refine, and there are very few poisons extracted, so the poisons on their arrows are different. Some paralyzed people, and some were poisoned with anesthetic juice and fell headlong into the canal.
Something terrible happened, the strange fish that were still overlapping and intertwined together and sensationalizing before, the first time the man fell into the water, they covered him with a bang, covering his whole person tightly, and only the shape of a person could be vaguely seen.
This scene is like a horror movie, whether it is the people on Tetis's side or the Gaia side, the attention is drawn to the man in the water, he only screams two or three times, and the flesh on his body disappears at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Everyone who saw this scene had a feeling of nausea, and a living person in front of their eyes, being eaten by an ugly black piranha, made them shudder.
The people who were still at the side of the canal, trying to build bridges and pave the road, retreated in unison, they were afraid, really afraid.
Far from their hometown, dying in such a place and burying their whole bodies in the belly of a fish is not the life they pursue.
Before the real duel took place, his own forces had weakened to such an extent that Tethys was furious: "Don't retreat, charge me, whoever dares to retreat will be pushed directly into the canal." ”
His order made Gu Xiaoxiao speechless, she simply suspected that the clone was a madman, otherwise how could she give such a cruel order.
In order to protect the Holy Land and protect their homeland, the Gaia people continued their counterattack after a short period of nausea. To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself, and they want to stop the invasion of the other.
On one side were arrows flying, on the other side were shields and wounded soldiers who were not afraid of death and had no way to retreat under the edict of Tetis, and the canals mercilessly devoured one life after another, and white bones with red marks loomed between the schools of black and pressed fish.
Under the fierce attack of Tethys, the Gaia ran out of arrows, and they opened a road to the Holy Land with their flesh and blood.
Under the improvised bridge, the black fish desperately tore at the corpse that fell into the water, and no one looked down, only prayed to the sea god in his heart, wishing to return home safely.
Under the cover of his subordinates, Tethys crossed the bridge in the middle, and the people who passed first were already completely fighting with the Gaia people. They each have their own advantages, and the guards on Tetis's side are well-trained and good at all kinds of weapons, and they can use common swords, guns and swords.
In comparison, the weapons of the Gaia tribe are too rudimentary, although they are strong and powerful, but the weapons in their hands are varied, in addition to the initial dominance in the fight, after Tethys and they found the pattern, the Gaia people gradually have a tendency to fall behind.
Tethys cunningly hid in the middle of the crowd, directing the battle situation.
The enemy was very red when they saw him, Gu Xiaoxiao's disgust for Tethys went deep into the bone marrow, she waved the sword in her hand, crossed the people around Tetis, and slashed at him with a sword.
Tetis's leg injury had not yet fully recovered, and when Gu Xiaoxiao attacked him, he grabbed a subordinate and blocked him, and then said, "Rude, you get rid of her!" ”
As soon as he gave the order, Rude threw away the soft-footed shrimp in his hand and started a battle with Gu Xiaoxiao.
Although Ruud usually seems too doglegged, he can do the first mate, and he still has two brushes. At least Ruud's combat power can be ranked fifteenth on the Okaeanos.
When the two were fighting, Rude did not forget to persuade him: "Beautiful Miss Mermaid, don't you really consider cooperating with us, we will give you full freedom." (To be continued.) )
