"Can anyone understand what these fish are saying?"

Looking at the poor merfolk who were chattering and croaking below, wanting to get close to the ship but not daring, Sidlifa asked with some irritation.

"They're merfolks, not fish." Nora could see at a glance what Sidlifa was thinking, "Don't hunt them like whales. ”

"Sirens, to be exact." Medea stepped out of the cabin and said.

She suddenly appeared, and everyone remembered it in hindsight, as if Medea hadn't come out in the past few days, nested in the alchemy room of the Hearthfire Island Manor, and didn't know what she was tinkering with.

"Sirens?" Sheila had heard the name too.

This creature used to be abundant in the Aegean Sea and liked to entrench itself on the reef and sing, inducing the sailors of the surrounding ships to jump into the sea and drown. In addition, I heard that the main material of "Desire II" seems to come from the siren.

However, with the rise of the Eastern Solomonic Empire in the Quaternary Age, the transcendent creatures of the Aegean Sea, such as sirens, harpies, and minotaurs, were basically hunted down, so Sheila had never seen these monsters.

"Okay." Sidlipha, tugging at her long white hair, said distressedly, "Does anyone understand what that, uh, sirens, is talking about?" ”

"I can." Medea said confidently.

"You know Siren?" Sheila asked, surprised.

"Nope." Medea smiled faintly, "I just know how to read minds." ”

Mind Reading ...... Oh, mind reading! Nora suddenly came to her senses.

As we all know, ideas are not entirely made up of words. For example, when people think about bread, most of the things that come to mind are not the word "bread", but the object that represents bread in their memory.

For example, if someone likes to eat croissants, the first thing that comes to mind is the shape of the croissants; If you love bagels, then you think of bagels.

In other words, even if the people of the Blue Sword don't understand the mermaid pronunciation of "bread", they can know what their chirp means by reading the thoughts of these mermaids.

You can even learn a mermaid language by the way...... Although it doesn't seem to make much sense.

So the two psychic sorcerers began to read the mind, and by the way, they translated it for everyone.

"Mighty landman!" The merfolk whispered, "Our people have surrendered to you, please don't kill us!" ”

What a plain answer...... Thinking so, Asker said:

"Pacify them."

Nora and Medea gave a group psychic cue, and soon the merfolk seemed to be reassured, and their originally nervous expressions gradually eased.

After roughly communicating with these mermaids, everyone realized that they actually lived in the waters near the Azores, and they had lived here for thousands of years.

As for why the ship of the Azure Sword was stopped, it was because ...... They have sinned against the offspring of the god of the sea.

"Poseidon?" The girls are inexplicable, when did we offend the god of the sea?

However, Nora soon got the answer from the merfolk's thoughts: the Poseidon Heir was the descendant of a cross between a Leviathan and a giant whale, similar in size to a slightly larger whale, but with a strong life force characteristic of Leviathan.

Because the Blue Sword had harmed the Seagod's heirs in the nearby seas, the merfolk were afraid that it would not find these humans when it returned for revenge, so they took out their anger on them, so they forcibly tried to keep them.

Nola: ..................

"Sidlifa." She sighed helplessly, "We're in big trouble this time." ”

As soon as I explained the matter to everyone, the others were speechless. But Sidlifa was still a little unconvinced, and shouted:

"I said I should have killed it early! Now, it's going to bring the Poseidon back to avenge us! ”

"How did this become 'it should have been killed early'?" Nora was almost crushed by her logic, "After all, you shouldn't shoot a whaling gun into the sea!" ”

"That's because I made a bet with the regiment leader." Sidlifa defended, "I've got to find the whale to show him!" ”

Asker: ???

"Commander." Nora showed a helpless expression, "Sidlifa doesn't care about anything, why are you messing around with her?" ”

"This ......" Aske wanted to defend himself, but to defend himself was tantamount to putting all the blame on Sidlifa, so he changed his mind and changed the subject with a smile:

"It's useless to hold anyone responsible, it's imperative to get to the island and hide the ship as soon as possible."

"On the island?" The girls were a little confused. Didn't you just say you were going to get around? Why did you suddenly change to go to the island and hide the boat?

"Of course, it's because I learned about the existence of the Leviathan." Seeing that everyone was confused, Aske explained, "Are you about to forget about the Demon Tide?" ”

As soon as he said this, the girls suddenly remembered that the last time the magic tide was in Solomon City in June last year, and it had been a year before they knew it.

For the current Demon Tide with a level cap of Lv.20, most of the girls actually don't feel anything, only Peggy and Asker, because they have been promoted to Lv.20 and become demigods, so they immediately feel the spiritual oppression of their surroundings.

Considering that the higher the level of the demigod, the higher the probability of erosion and damage to sanity, such a level cap is actually a good thing. It's just that as time goes on, this oppression is gradually loosening - it is clear that the next round of Lv.25 is coming.

And every time the demon tide comes, it is often accompanied by a riot of extraordinary monsters and the emergence of a large number of mutations. 5 liters 10, the city of Olympia was besieged; 10 l 15, everyone hid in the Weissbach Palace in Bavaria, but they were not affected; 15 liters 20, the mutation of the spiritual tree nearly destroyed the city of Solomon.

This time 20 liters and 25, the Azure Sword will most likely be spent at sea. If the so-called heir of the sea god took the opportunity to bring a large number of marine transcendent creatures back to take revenge and directly sank the ship with the tsunami, then everyone would probably have to hide in the ashes of Hearthfire Island, and let Peggy, as a demigod, fly back to the mainland with the ancient book.

Thinking about it this way, it is safer to hide on the island and wait for the demon tide to come, and by the way, dispose of the heir of the sea god (if it does come back for revenge).

So Nora and Medea communicated with the merfolk and used half-baked merfolk language and psychic hints to explain that they were "going to stay on the island for a while", which immediately made the merfolk overjoyed.

They had realized that their own people were no match for them, so if they forced them to leave, the merfolk could not force them to stay. In the future, it is possible to bear the wrath of the heirs of the sea god.

Now, the other party intends to stay near the island. When the time comes, if the Poseidon heirs come over, they will only need to drill down to the bottom of the deep sea and wait for the winner to be decided.

If these people die, after the heirs of the sea god are discouraged, they will naturally not embarrass these mermaids; If the heir of the god of the sea dies...... Wouldn't that be better? In short, the mermaid clan is absolutely not a loss.

Therefore, these merfolk with human-like upper bodies and fishtails on the lower half of their bodies immediately showed flattering smiles and diligently guided the ships of the Blue Sword people towards the island harbor.
