Chapter 454: The mermaid is not cannon fodder
Tetis's eyes hung slightly, and his smile was a little creepy, at least that's what the merfolk thought.
Gu Xiaoxiao got closer to the boat, and Lodia involuntarily swam forward, shouting at her: "Tatasi, don't believe Tetis's words, he is a liar!" β
"Don't be impulsive, Tatasi, we'll help you, don't be fooled."
The waves rattled under the acceleration of several people, and the others also spoke, Gu Xiaoxiao, who was swimming towards the Tethys boat, turned around and paused her advance, she was worried that Lodia and they would be confused and miss her previous arrangement.
Although Tethys could not understand the language of the merfolk clan, he deduced their intentions from their actions, and raised his head with a sneer, and said, "Except for Tatasi, everyone else retreats, otherwiseβ"
He pulled out the jeweled dagger at his waist, and with a flash of cold light, he rested it on Tatasi's mother's neck, but the smile on his face remained undiminished.
The naked threat made Gu Xiaoxiao's face change, she suppressed the anger in her heart, and said to Lodia, who also showed resentment: "Don't come here, believe me, as we agreed before." β
Randy and Rand pulled Lodia left and right, and persuaded: "Ya, don't be impulsive, don't mess up." β
Lodia bit her lip, glared at Tetis, and stopped in the water.
Compared with the luxurious giant cruise ship Okaanos, the ship now on the water is only two and a half stories high, and the carrying capacity is less than a hundred.
But Gu Xiaoxiao's mood at this moment was even more nervous than Tethys when she had hundreds of subordinates, because she had a weakness in his hands.
The boat swayed in the sea breeze. Maybe it was the voice of their daughter, maybe it was the pain of the wound being blown open by the wind, and the parents of Tatasi and Lodia woke up one after another.
They looked up with difficulty. Effortlessly, he opened the slit in his red and swollen eyes and saw the little mermaids in the sea. After experiencing a life-and-death crisis, seeing his long-lost daughter and his kind clansmen, an exciting force poured into his heart.
Tatasi's mother shouted hoarsely, ignoring the cold blade on her neck, "Tatasi, don't come. Leave me alone, you guys go quickly. β
She was too weak to use her mental powers to communicate with her daughter. I can only speak to her through a hoarse voice. Tethys vigilantly pushed the knife forward, threatening: "Don't play any tricks, if you speak again, I will kill you in front of Tatasi." β
The demagogic power of the merfolk people's singing comes from their special spiritual power. But humans don't know this. Theses, including Tethys, have always thought that they were using their voices to confuse the minds of humans.
Tethys had been fooled once, and he was so jealous of the captured mermaid, that he did not know that the mermaid he had chosen was actually Tatasi's mother.
The knife was attached to her neck, and Tatasi's mother did not flinch, glaring at her eyes to say something. It was still Gu Xiaoxiao who hurriedly stopped: "Mother, don't go toe-to-toe with Tetis." My daughter has already made arrangements, and she won't suffer. β
She used her mental power to hide from Tethys, and Tatasi's mother hung her head, suppressed her worries about her daughter, and silently gathered strength. She knows her daughter's temperament better than anyone else, and now she can't persuade her to turn back.
Out of a mother's instinct, Tatasi's mother had already decided that Jottetis wanted to kill Tatasi, and she would fight to stop him.
Gu Xiaoxiao deliberately slowed down the speed of her travel, she was buying time to buy more time for her companions.
Tethys didn't put down the knife in his hand, looking proud, waiting for Gu Xiaoxiao to throw himself into the net. Two days earlier, he had ordered his men to lay a net near the boat, and if Tatasi came, the nets with barbs and barbs would be tightly entangled.
When she is caught, the other merfolk are even more captured, and his great cause of domination of the sea is just around the corner, Tethys squinted, and his mind has already sketched the magnificent scene of marrying Princess Artemis and inheriting the kingdom of Ahki, he will crisscross the western continent and the sea.
Only in this way can he stay in this world, instead of failing the mission and being taken away by the ontology to devour his consciousness. Chao's doppelganger is very ambitious, he wants to become the king of adventure, and he also wants to be the greatest king of the Western Continent, so that everyone will bow and worship.
Tethys's heart was fluttering, and seeing Tatasi getting closer, he withdrew his dagger and played with it in his hand, his blue eyes rolling with something called ambition.
If it weren't for the fact that half a month ago, he found an adventure that belonged to the original owner, and now I am afraid that he would not be able to deal with this tricky space-time manager with ease.
Soon, Tethys moved his neck, and the sound of the click made him feel empowered. He likes strong flesh, and his sideburns fly when the sea breeze blows, which is much more interesting than making a set of cold, shady data.
The distance between the two is getting closer and closer, and Tethys's uncontrollable smug smile is clearly visible, Gu Xiaoxiao silently counted the time in her heart, and her eyes have been locked on Tetis.
The sound of the ship breaking through the water sounded, and Gu Xiaoxiao, who was swimming towards Tetis, was surprised to find that just behind the docking of Tethys's ship, a ship with a particularly familiar appearance was moving.
In the distance, a silver-white sailboat appeared, breaking the waves in the turquoise sea, stirring up a splash like white jade beads, and a person stood at the bow of the boat, letting the wind and waves blow and stand still.
The distance between the two ships was five or six nautical miles, and Gu Xiaoxiao was engrossed in confronting Tethys, and Lodia, Randy, and Rand looked into the distance and identified them from the outline.
"It's Anthony, oh, and Alder, Violet Orchid, Canoe, ......, they're here!"
Rand and the Gaia had a great time, calling out a series of names in one breath, with a look of disbelief. Out of prudence, he used his mental strength to communicate with his partners silently.
He never imagined that there would be a day when he would meet Anthony again, or in this situation.
Tethys also saw ships in the distance, but his eyesight was not as good as that of a merfolk, and he could only see extremely vague outlines, which were not marked by the spare ships on the Okaeanos. Tethys is too confident in their destructive abilities. So I didn't expect the owner of the ship to be Anthony, just as it was a passing boat.
To be on the safe side, Tethys ordered his subordinates. Flags are given to ships that are sailing, signaling them to avoid their ships.
The moment he discovered the mermaids, Anthony didn't think to avoid it, his purposeless voyage on the sea was just trying his luck. He had asked about the homeland of the Merfolk of Lodia, and she had vaguely mentioned it, but for him. Finding a place with no coordinates at sea is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Anthony also weighed it, but on the fourth day of sending off Lodea. He couldn't control his thoughts about her, so he resolutely prepared the supplies and embarked on a sailing journey. Several young men and women from the Gaia tribe volunteered to accompany him. Anthony did not refuse. Sailing is not a one-man business.
After nearly a month of sailing, drifting on the vast sea, and constantly running out of supplies, Tethys was going to find a small island to live on for a while, and then look for Lodia and them after replenishing supplies.
Unexpectedly, at this time, I met the mermaid clan, and I also met someone who was suspected of being Tethys.
Just as Tethys couldn't identify the person who came, Anthony couldn't recognize the ship not far away. In the end, it is still deliberately difficult to stop here by chance.
"Speed up, sail. Raising the flag, we have to go to the island 200 nautical miles ahead to resupply supplies. β
The Gaians have only found ships, and they don't have the eyes of Anthony who have not yet found merfolk. After the flag was played, Anthony and the others mentioned that Tatasi and Lodia might be ahead.
This news made several people on the boat excited, and they couldn't wait to put wings on both sides of the boat and let it fly over quickly.
After receiving the flag, Tethys frowned slightly, this boat that suddenly appeared, was it really just passing by, he estimated the distance, and decided to deal with these mermaids as soon as possible before the arrival of the other party's ship.
"Don't play any tricks, I'll give you five minutes, and for every minute you drag, I'll kill a mermaid. Of course, I'll remember that there is one left waiting for you to save you. Tethys leaned forward, leaned out of the railing, and brutally gave Gu Xiaoxiao an ultimatum.
Gu Xiaoxiao's spiritual power had already explored the surrounding situation, and there was a fishing net with dense murder weapons hanging around the boat, and Tetes's ghost idea was obvious. As long as you swim within the range of encounters, you will definitely be caught by him in an urn.
There were only five minutes left, and Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't let Tatasi and Lodia's parents die at the hands of Tetis, so she could only grit her teeth and swim forward.
Anthony was still some way away from them, and she could only hope that the tactics she had laid out would work, and Tethys was not outrageously tough.
Under the tense atmosphere, all the sounds around were infinitely amplified, Gu Xiaoxiao pushed away the waves, pinched the time and swam towards Tetis's boat, the golden fishtail exuding a dazzling luster in the sun.
Tethys condescendingly nodded to his subordinates and told them to prepare to collect the nets as soon as Tatasi swam to the place where the nets were placed, leaving her body behind, even if they couldn't catch her alive.
It's almost time to get to the place where Tethys has set the trap, Gu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, her nerves tensed, and success or failure was in one move.
Seeing Gu Xiaoxiao swimming within the range of the fishing net, Tetis couldn't help but shout: "Collect the net!" Before he issued the order, his subordinates, who had been told several times, had already begun to pull the fishing nets in their hands.
The fishing net slowly tightened, the barbs and barbs collided, seeing that Gu Xiaoxiao was about to be wrapped in the blade, the nearest barb was only about twenty kilometers away from her, Tethys was ready to enjoy the scene of flesh and blood.
The nets suddenly stopped there, no longer gathering in the middle, and Tethys cursed, "Bastard, waste, hurry up and pull her up." β
Gu Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief in the fishing net, ten meters away from the boat, the spiritual interference of the mermaid clan worked, and Tethys's men were confused. This is a strategy set by Gu Xiaoxiao on the way here, she taught her companions how to attack directly with spiritual power without singing, and taught them how to hide their breath and lurk in the sea.
The tactics are very simple, but it is difficult to operate, without being sure how strong Tethys's spiritual power is, after being ten nautical miles away from the ship, Gu Xiaoxiao has stopped communicating with his companions hiding in the sea, preventing their mental power fluctuations from attracting Tetis's attention.
The twelve people floating on the surface of the sea were just interfering with Tetis's judgment, and Gu Xiaoxiao took advantage of Tetis's mood fluctuations at the same time, and concentrated his mental power to attack him.
Realizing that he had been tricked, Tethys took out his dagger and was about to cut the throat of the mermaid tied to the mast, when suddenly there was a stinging pain in his brain, sharp as a steel needle, and the dagger fell to the deck.
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxiao jumped out of the fishing net and climbed onto the lifeladder on the hull, the fishtail turned into legs at the fastest speed, and jumped to the deck with the safety ladder in one go.
The severe pain made the defenseless Tetis, who was confused for about ten seconds, was directly broken by him with his powerful mental power. He leaned down and scooped up the dagger on the ground, and without hesitation, stabbed at Lodia's father in the chest.
In the distance, Lodia saw this terrifying scene, let out a heart-rending cry, and closed her eyes in fear.
As soon as Gu Xiaoxiao climbed onto the deck, he saw this scene and threw the short sword in his hand with all his strength.
The short sword and dagger collided, knocking down Tetis's attack, but it also put Gu Xiaoxiao at a disadvantage. Previously, after expending her mental energy to attack Tethys, she was unable to launch a second attack in a short period of time, and now she lost her weapon.
Tetis knocked down the flying horizontal sword and kicked the short sword into the sea with one kick to prevent Gu Xiaoxiao from getting it in his hand again, he had already suffered too much on this sword.
Throwing away the weapon, Gu Xiaoxiao clenched his hands into fists, and stared at Tethys fearlessly.
The number one enemy was in front of him, and he had the upper hand again, Tethys temporarily let go of a few tortured and dying mermaids, wiped his chin with his backhand, and approached Gu Xiaoxiao step by step.
In Tetis's opinion, Gu Xiaoxiao, who has no weapons, is like a cat with its claws plucked, no matter how powerful her fists and feet are, how can she compare with a sword.
In order to avoid accidentally injuring several elders, Gu Xiaoxiao deliberately took a few steps back and made an uneasy appearance.
"If you want to ask for mercy, it's still too late, as long as you are willing to cooperate with me." Tethys, who thought he had a chance of victory, arrogantly extended an olive branch, enjoying the other party's groveling in front of him more than directly killing the Planar Administrator.
"Dreaming."
While trying to transfer the battle arena, Gu Xiaoxiao did not forget to use her peripheral vision to observe whether there were any weapons in hand, and the silver plate on the table attracted her attention. She took a sharp step back, holding the silver plate in her hand and blocking it in front of her.
After Tethys laughed, he stabbed at Gu Xiaoxiao at lightning speed, approaching her famous family. The sword in his hand is as sharp as clay, and a silver-plated plate can stop it. (To be continued.) )
