Chapter Forty-Eight: The Sacred Beast Egg at Risk
"They're coming!"
Moxi screamed nervously, watching a group of little mermaids and phantom merfolk slowly surround the lifeboat where they were in the evening pavilion under the leadership of the Phantom Empress.
"Don't be nervous, human, I've heard the kids say it, thank you for your help before. ”
Just when the Vortex Frog Emperor was in front of the lifeboat, engrossed on guard, Xiang Wanting suddenly heard a beautiful female voice ringing in his head.
Xiang Wanting thought that he had misheard, and glanced at Han Ge and Mo Xi on the side, and found that the two of them were also looking at him in surprise.
Obviously, Han Ge and Mo Xi, like Xiang Wanting, both heard that voice.
"Can you have a conversation with us?"
Han Ge felt that he had lived for so many years, and he had never experienced such a thing, and a war beast could actually talk to humans?
How the hell did you do that?Han Ge looked at the Phantom Empress strangely, and her mouth didn't seem to move just now.
"Don't look at it, I'm not talking to you with my mouth, this is the special ability of our mermaid clan, and with the illusionary energy, I can make you hear what I want to say, and I can understand what you want to say. ”
Xiang Wanting said that he hadn't heard of it, but to be honest, this was the first time he had seen a phantom war beast, and he just sighed that this world was really full of wonders, before he could communicate with the Seven Water Gods with his telekinesis, and now, this Phantom Empress was able to use the phantom energy to communicate with them.
Even Xiang Wanting had an idea, if he could accept a little mermaid as a war beast, would he be able to use this to communicate with any war beast.
Thinking about it this way, Xiang Wanting felt that the quasi-holy war beast of the little mermaid was simply infinitely useful, of course, he could only think about this by himself, not to mention that he currently had no extra soul box to subdue the war beast, even if there were, would it be difficult to defeat a little mermaid in front of the leader of the people and then subdue it, would it be too long?
After putting aside these unrealistic ideas, Xiang Wanting found that the Phantom Empress had swam to the edge of their life-saving pod, and out of politeness, Xiang Wanting opened the glass cover to the three of them, and stood on the life-saving pod to talk to the Phantom Empress.
"Human, I have something I want you to do. The Empress of Phantom Sound's tone was a little stiff, but for a war beast, could she still expect it to say anything polite.
The three of them didn't care about this, and they insisted on calculating it, and now their lives are still in each other's hands.
Even Han Ge's Vortex Frog Emperor was unwilling to be able to take them out of a Phantom Empress and a group of Phantom Mermaids and Little Mermaids.
Han Ge said: "Do you want us to leave this sea, don't worry, we only passed here unexpectedly because of the shipwreck, and we will leave right now." ”
The Empress of Phantom Sound shook her head very humanely, and said, "That's not the case, I want you to go to the island and do us a favor, this matter may not be solved by ourselves now, maybe you humans can solve it." ”
"Going to the island?" Seeing that the Empress of Phantom Sound took the initiative to let herself and others go to the island, Han Ge was a little uneasy, and glanced at the evening pavilion inquiringly.
This matter, there seems to be a hint of weirdness, so he can't make decisions by himself, as for Moxi, he was immediately excited when he heard that he could go to the island, and probably thought of the little fishman's war beast egg, and his IQ was already negative at this time.
Xiang Wanting was also suspicious, and asked, "Can you tell us why you let us go to the island?" ”
The Phantom Empress probably understood their concerns, and said, "Don't worry, I don't have any ill will towards you, and if it's just that big guy, it's not my opponent, if you want to be unfavorable to you, you don't have to wait on the island." ”
The big guy that the Phantom Empress said should be the Storm Vortex Frog Emperor, and it may seem that among this group of people and war beasts, the only one that can pose a threat to it is this one.
As for Xiao Youlong, a guy with only level 12 combat power, even the weakest little mermaid in their group can be eliminated.
"Old Han, are we going?" Xiang Wanting was still a little uneasy, and asked in a low voice.
Han Ge glanced at the merfolk around him and said with a wry smile, "Now we have any other way than to go to the island?"
"Go, go, maybe you can find the little mermaid's war beast ...... on the island. ”
Moxi interjected very inappropriately, but was interrupted by a glaring at Xiang Wanting and the others, and Nono closed his mouth.
For the first time, Xiang Wanting felt that it was a complete mistake to bring this guy out of Moxi, and in some things, he even performed the word bear child very well.
The heaviest, Xiang Wanting, they still agreed to the request of the Phantom Empress to go to the island.
Still dragged by the Vortex Frog Emperor, the lifeboat was towed, and it didn't take long for the three of them to follow the merfolk to the beach on the island.
When he got closer, Xiang Wanting realized that this small island was really not big, almost as far as the eye could see, and it couldn't even be called an island, it might just be a small land formed by a huge reef in the sea.
Just as they wondered how the merfolk should get to the island, the Phantom Queen and the other merfolk condensed the energy of the water system, and their blue pupils emitted a strange light.
The water level on the edge of the beach suddenly rose sharply, and it didn't take long to flood the beach, spreading all the way to the island, and soon the entire island was submerged, and the Queen of Phantoms continued on their way.
All the way to the edge of a sea cave, the rising sea water has opened up a waterway for the cave, and Xiang Wanting and they are led by the mermaid all the way into the cave.
The light in the cave was a little dim, and the Queen of Phantom Sound had apparently noticed this, and screamed at a few Phantom Mermaids, and the pink gems on their foreheads emitted a burst of light, illuminating the entire cave.
Only then did Xiang Wanting see the scene in the cave clearly, only to see that in the center of the cave, there was a huge pit that was higher than the cave, and there was a mass of white crystal clear liquid in the pit, and in the center of the pit, there was also a round blue war beast egg the size of a human head and a strange pattern.
The bottom of this egg was soaked in a white liquid, and most of the rest was exposed to the air, and Xiang Wanting also found that in the middle of the egg, there was a small crack, and a faint blue-white energy was spilling out from the inside.
"This, it seems to be a 10,000-year-old stalactite liquid!?" Han Ge was well-informed, and he recognized the origin of the white liquid in the pit at a glance, and couldn't help but shout in surprise.
Xiang Wanting asked strangely, "Old Han, what are the 10,000-year-old stalactite liquid you are talking about?"
Moxie also looked at him with a blank face, puzzled.
After calming down a little, Han Ge said in a daze: "Legend has it that in the 10,000-year-old stalactite, this 10,000-year-old stalactite liquid will be condensed, and the thousand-year-old stalactite liquid will be this transparent and clear color like water, it is said that this stalactite liquid can play a miraculous effect on the living bones of the living and dead, no matter what disease, or what injury, as long as a drop can make people recover as before, I can't imagine that you can see this kind of treasure here." ”
He shook his head with some regret, if it weren't for the mermaid on the side, he couldn't help but want to take these treasures for himself, which was a very rare good thing.
"What about that egg, Old Han, do you know what kind of war beast's egg it is?"
Compared with those stalactite liquids, Xiang Wanting was a little more curious about the war beast egg, but he didn't know what kind of war beast egg was soaked in the 10,000-year-old stalactite with such fanfare, could it be the war beast egg of the little mermaid?
However, looking at the appearance of the war beast egg, a thin crack has been cracked, and it should be impossible to hatch a war beast under normal circumstances.
"I don't know about this, I've never seen this kind of war beast egg. Han Ge said with certainty: "But I've seen the pattern of the little mermaid war beast egg, this should not be the little mermaid's war beast egg." ”
"That's our master's child. ”
The Phantom Empress on the side spoke at the right time, but its words also made Xiang Wanting and the others very dazed.
If the master of the Phantom Empress is a human being, then it is impossible for humans to give birth to war beast eggs, so could it be that the master of the Phantom Empress is a war beast? And the master in the words of the Phantom Empress seems to be the master of their entire mermaid race.
Seeing that the three of them were very puzzled, the Empress of Phantom Sound said again: "Our race has been breeding here since three hundred years ago, and our mermaid clan has existed as the guardian of the master for generations, and in my generation, our mermaid clan has changed three generations of leaders......"
Through the narration of the Phantom Empress, Xiang Wanting and the others finally understood the origin of this war beast egg.
It turned out that the owner in the mouth of the Empress of Phantom Sound was actually a powerful holy beast blue spirit deer.
More than two hundred years ago, the blue spirit deer entered the reproductive period, and when it gave birth to the war beast egg, it accidentally fought with another powerful holy beast, although it drove away the holy beast, but its war beast egg liquid was attacked at that time, and there was a trace of cracks, and the breath of life continued to pass.
In order to save his child, the blue spirit deer led the mermaid clan to search for the sea, and accidentally found the island, as well as the 10,000-year-old lotion in the cave of the island, and the 10,000-year-old lotion was still slowly a pit at that time.
At that time, in order to keep the vitality of the war beast egg, the blue spirit deer continued to instill his own life force into the war beast egg, causing himself to run out of oil, and after inputting the last power into the egg, he finally died.
For more than two hundred years, the mermaid clan has been guarding this war beast egg, waiting for the recovery of the war beast egg, it may be that the war beast egg was too damaged and has not been able to recover, and the stalactite liquid in the pit is decreasing day by day.
A year ago, the stalactite in the pit had gradually dropped below the rift, and the war beast eggs that could not absorb the stalactite slowly began to overflow with life energy, and it was this overflowing life energy that attracted the group of great dragon turtles.
At that time, in order to protect the life energy of the war beast egg from continuing to overflow, the previous leader, a Phantom Empress with the peak strength of the Heavenly Rank, did not hesitate to sacrifice her own life and built a barrier to prevent the life energy in the egg from continuing to overflow.
It wasn't until a few days ago that the barrier dissipated again, and a large amount of life energy in the egg overflowed, and the Phantom Song Mermaid who succeeded the leader, that is, the current Phantom Empress, also absorbed the life energy overflowing from the egg, and entered the transformation in one fell swoop a few days later, which is the scene they saw in Xiang Wanting.
