Chapter 132: No Promises

She saw a pair of human legs.

Is it because of the power of Dragon Ball, or is there something else? She didn't know, but she destroyed her value in the eyes of humans even more completely than she expected—her value as a merman. She succeeded, but she was almost mad with grief. She was still alive, trapped in the darkness. The shuttle was destroyed, and even if he wanted to pierce his throat and cut himself, he didn't have a sharp weapon at hand.

Under the sorrow of thousands of pains but no gains, she burst into tears.

Did she cry? She thought so. In the years she has lived, whether she or her clansmen, she has never seen anyone cry secretly and tears for something. But she was too painful, too bitter, too aggrieved, and no matter how much she cried, she couldn't cry all these years of sorrow. Far from home, with friends and clansmen, I have long forgotten the taste of freedom. Even her appearance, I'm afraid in the eyes of those people, is like a pile of gold, and no one cares what she looks like. Now I can't survive, I can't die, and even the right to live and die has been handed over to other people.

What did she do wrong to be punished so unjustly?

She cried day and night, tears that did not coalesce into beads, but seeped into the dragon balls she clutched, and also wrapped the outer layer heavily.

The journey has finally come to an end.

The moment the box was opened, the official was stunned and scolded. They obviously saw that it was a mermaid who was put inside, but at this time it was just an ordinary, half-dead mother-in-law, even so thin that it was not human. How does this make them reconcile?

One of the sharp-eyed caught a glimpse of what the girl was holding in her hand and ordered her to hand it over. The girl naturally refused, but what else could she do to keep the last treasure that the dragon had given her?

She had only one way left.

The girl covered her mouth and swallowed the dragon ball in her stomach.

Suddenly, the sky was dark and the wind and rain were blowing. The dark clouds almost crushed the royal city, and the angry wind howled so that people could not stand, and they had to cover their heads so as not to be injured by the violent raindrops. People fled in all directions, and the officials forgot their duties, and did not care about the strange people or sharks in the boxes.

The girl fled. She jumped into a nearby ditch and swam all the way across the river to the sea. Her withered body was squeezed by time, and the moment she touched the water, the dead wood came back to life like spring. The water became her fins, her wings, her strength. She worked day and night, not even feeling tired, and the fish around her hugged her, as if to give her a ride.

Finally, she returned to the depths of the sea. It was the home of her dreams.

Her family, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, rushed up, and the girl held out her hand longingly.

She was greeted with a sword and axe.

The girl didn't know that she was already a dragon at this moment, how could her people recognize her appearance?

She pleaded, she cried out until she lost her strength, trembled a little, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

In the pool of blood, a blood-red dragon ball rolled out.

“…… So she went through many obstacles, returned home, and was beaten to death by her relatives? ”

Bai Ya sat under the water, frowning, and looking up at the group of swaying mermaids. They all looked solemn, as if they had struggled to reveal a secret that had been buried for many years to a stranger.

"Listen to me—she wasn't killed. It is rumored that the corpse was actually human. The orange-tailed middle-aged merman sighed and explained further, "She is no longer a merman, and when she loses the Dragon Ball, she turns back into a human form." Beneath the depths of the sea, she choked to death as a human being. ”

It's even more dramatic than the former! Bai Ya opened his mouth, and only after a while did he say dryly:

"No matter how magnificent the scripts are, it's nothing more than that."

"This story is so mysterious that it has been passed down to this day, and even my generation doesn't know how much it is true or false."

"Although it has a head and an end, it is quite like that. Can...... So with such an unknown story, the two of you have a grudge, which is so deep that it has not been solved to this day? Bai Ya pinched the bridge of his nose, "So...... You can't say the name, is it a dragon? ”

"Definitely. If the dragons' names were to be spoken in our language, they would probably be heard by their keen ears. The disaster of killing may also follow. The other merman replied solemnly in a stiff human language.

Bai Ya still couldn't figure it out.

"Just because of this story? I'll admit, it's a love-hate affair that's really exciting. But as you said, it's hard to tell whether this story is true or false, and you can't tell which is right and which is wrong, so you won't make each other enemies for thousands of years. ”

"That's how it should be. At that time, our people had already reconciled with them, and they clearly admitted that the pearl belonged to our people. But ......"

The orange-tailed merman told Bai Ya that the merman and the dragon clan had met here to discuss the ownership of the treasure. The messenger sent was said to be a young man, but maybe it was the same little dragon that was sent out. Dancing Chinese

This is unknown, and credible rumors only say that the two parties sacrificed the blood-colored dragon ball and sat together. The sorcerer who communicates yin and yang among the mermen performs a spell and prays to the girl's soul from afar, asking her to resolve her resentment and forgive the two clansmen. If she is willing to let go, please also appear to the living to show her way.

As soon as this set of communication ended, the dragon balls faded from blood-stained red and turned pure white. The matter went smoothly beyond the expectations of both parties, and after thinking about it, they had to decide that it was indeed the girl who made the decision for herself to end this absurd tragedy. Therefore, they each took a step back, and the dragons recognized that the pearl belonged to the merman, and the merman allowed them to build a crystal palace and place the orb to remember the past and show future generations.

Pearls are not always white, but change with the cycle of day and night. At night, the beads transform into a corresponding pitch black. This is not something to be surprising. The female merman explained to Bai Ya that this jewel could temporarily transform the merman into a human form.

If a mermaid wants to go to land, he only needs to go to the temple where the pearls are placed and pray sincerely. If you make a wish during the day and become a human being, you will return to your original self at night, and vice versa. In any case, they were able to sustain themselves for no more than six hours. If you want to become a human forever, you may have to be like the legendary girl, cut the tail of the fish with a shuttle, and then come back and pray for the pearl to grant her mana. It's just this way...... It's so bloody that no one has ever dared to try it. What's more, there is nothing worth it for anyone to risk their lives and lose their lives.

Take a step back: even if the legend is true. But once the tail is sawed, it becomes a human ...... Humanity no longer has a chance to return to the Pearl. Therefore, this rumor has not been confirmed so far.

The term of this transformation power was really familiar, and Bai Ya couldn't help but glance down at the blue amber in his hand. Despite the unbelievable appearance of the sharks, their pearls sounded like magic weapons.

"Not now!" A merman interjected, "It's not very possible to see the pearl. More than ten years ago, the dragon clan rebelled and sent heavy troops to guard the crystal palace overnight, especially beware of our clan. No matter who tries to get close, it will be a death, even if it is a small fry. But I don't know what's going on. They said it was ours, but how could they not believe it? But our people have been slaughtered so far, and they can't form a decent team at all. Even if you want to recruit helpers, you can't turn to help. ”

Gotcha, back to the point.

The sharks all looked at Bai Ya and glanced at the blue amber in his hand. Bai Ya frowned and groaned:

"To tell you the truth, the blue amber was taken by someone else before it fell into the sea, and it wasn't my thing at the time. At least, it didn't belong to me then. But in the beginning, it was indeed me and my friend who got it from the hands of the Yaksha by accident. We are not trying to rob it, just to cure the disease and save lives. But since that's the case...... If one of you saved my life, I owe heaven a great favor. If you don't pay it back, it's not my style. But if I were to fight the dragon alone, it would be ......."

Bai Ya kept his head held high, and his neck was a little sore. He rubbed the back of his neck and continued to organize the language. As soon as he said this, the sharks suddenly turned around, as if they had noticed something. At this moment, there was suddenly a thin merman he had never seen before, with a fishtail covered with blue scales, and rushed over in a hurry, shouting something in his mouth.

The mermaids were all flustered, and the orange-tailed mermaids in their center also had solemn expressions. She succinctly relayed the patrolman's message to Bai Ya:

"There are human beings...... Coming from the sea. Those who come are not good, it seems to be a strong enemy, everyone prepares for war! ”

She was about to turn around and lead the crowd to defend against the enemy, when Bai Ya suddenly raised her voice and said to the slender messenger:

"How many people? What? ”

The man looked at him with a look of confusion in his eyes, so the mermaid translated it into his language for him. He said a few more words, and the mermaid turned her head and said to him under the water:

He saw three people. There seems to be one of you females and two men. One of them, holding a strange short knife in his hand. That short knife is special and has incredible power. Perhaps, it was it that made them break through the sea. ”

“…… I know. Don't panic, they're all my friends. ”

The orange-tailed merman looked at him suspiciously, and ordered his own people to stop. She called out to the blue-scaled shark to explain a few words, and the latter bowed his head again and again, and swam over to signal Bai Ya to follow.

"I'll go too!"

"No way!"

As soon as Miss Quan spoke, she was stopped by the female mermaid. Bai Ya didn't understand what the last short word was, which could be guessed from Miss Quan's frustrated and unwilling expression.

"Wait for me." He tried to comfort.

Bai Ya took a deep breath here and plunged into the water. On the way, the guide didn't say a word, kept moving forward with his head stuffy, I don't know if he couldn't speak the language of the land, or if the situation was urgent, and he didn't have the heart to talk. His speed was much faster than that of Girl Quan, and the scenery around him quickly regressed and even became blurry. If it weren't for this special fabric, I'm afraid Bai Ya wouldn't have been able to catch up with him. He went all the way up, and it wasn't long before his head popped up compared to the long way he had come.

- Rather, it is through a wall of water.

In front of him was a huge crack, Bai Ya raised his head, and in the towering sea water on both sides, sea objects of different shapes were still swimming leisurely, unaware of the visions around him. There is still a shallow layer of water at the bottom of the sea, and you can see strange pentagonal animals wriggling against the bottom of the water, and some small fish swimming back and forth, as if they are puzzled by the sudden drop in the water level.

At that moment, he was a little dizzy. Bai Ya felt as if he had suddenly returned to the rift valley of Moon-Eating Mountain.

Even the people who were with him at the time are also present now.

His gaze followed the water face below. Ahead, there is a reef with dirty algae and barnacles, rising from the bottom of the sea, the top exposed beyond the water layer. There was a figure standing at the top, and two more on the lower side.

The Frost Moon Monarch, who was holding the Demon Sealing Blade in his hand, met his gaze first, and raised his eyebrows slightly:

"It's ...... Shark fabric? Really good......"
