Chapter 968: Finding Someone

Shark people.

Another brand new term, looking at the way others didn't understand, Jeno explained, "The mermaids are the aquatic Vastaya race with human bodies and fish tails. ”

"Sounds like a Siren, a bit like the legendary Siren." Sarah was thoughtful, her ship was named after the sirens.

"It's different, the sirens are snake tails, and the mermaids I'm talking about are mermaids! Of course, it's not just females, there are males inside, but we're looking for a mermaid girl named Nami. ”

"You say yes, mermaid, it sounds collectible, I don't know if I have a big fish tank in my captain's room." Sarah muttered, maneuvering the Abyss around the Titan Peak to the western shore.

"......" Jano wondered if he had done something to lure the wolf into the house, and in the usual story, the sailors and pirates were quite fanatical about mermaids.

"By the way, the mermaid you are talking about, is she pretty?"

Listening to the familiar question, Jeno did not answer the question, nor did he take out a pen and paper to write and draw.

Looks like he's going to have to look at Sarah......

……

Because of their duties, personalities, appearances, etc., all three women were left on the ship, and only Jeno and Cassadine, who looked relatively normal, got off the ship.

They visited several small villages on the west coast and asked the villagers if they had seen a mermaid.

These villagers live at the foot of the Giant God Peak, and inevitably come into contact with a lot of strange things.

But Jeno's description of the mermaid who wields the water with a staff has never been seen, or even heard.

"The mermaids don't seem to go ashore much, and they don't come into contact with humans at all, so even the locals don't know that there is such a group of Vastayas living in the nearby seas."

Jeno's discovery leads to the clue from the entire group of mermen to a single merman, who can only find the abyss through Nami.

But now there is a question that puzzles him, that is, did Nami go ashore before?

If Nami hadn't gone ashore to look for Moonstone, then Jano wouldn't have been able to find her on the shore, no matter how much she tried.

So he changed the question to verify from the side - he asked the villagers if the Lieyang Xingling had appeared.

Then got an affirmative answer.

As expected, the news of the appearance of the Bright Moon Star Spirit was blocked by the Burning Sun Sect. However, Jeno had known that the Sun Star Spirit and the Bright Moon Star Spirit had appeared at the same time, and Nami was looking for the Bright Moon Star Spirit.

Through the connection, it can be deduced from the news of the appearance of the Sun Star Spirit that Nami has gone ashore in order to find the Bright Moon Star Spirit and obtain the Moon Stone.

"I can't do it if I don't find Nami, so let's keep looking." Jeno met with Cassadine, and again went to the nearby village to inquire from house to house.

The hard work paid off, and finally, Jeno and the others inquired about Nami's whereabouts at the foot of the Giant God Peak.

An old man in a golden robe, who served as an elder in the village, was supported by two sentinels.

"Outlander, I heard you're looking for someone?" The old man's brow furrowed tightly, this was not a sign of old age, but his expression was unusually heavy.

"Yes, a mermaid woman from the deep sea." Jeno's expression also became solemn.

"Does she have red eyes and swim ashore with a pool of water that she can manipulate? She came to find the Moon Star Spirit to save her people. The old man added, his face becoming more and more ugly.

"Yes. Sir, please be sure to tell us her whereabouts, we have no ill intentions, we want to help her. Jeno also realized that something was wrong, the village at the foot of the Giant God Peak naturally believed in the scorching sun, refusing to recognize any light, and regarded the people related to the Bright Moon Sect as heretics.

And Jeno is like a heretic to the old man, and he can say that he hasn't turned his face yet, and he is already forbearing.

"Alas, what a wreck!" The old man suppressed his anger, his body trembled, and finally squeezed a faint sigh out of his shriveled lips.

The sentry beside him stepped forward to support the old man's trembling figure, and then he said, "The woman you are looking for, I have seen her. ”

"I can see it." Nami's appearance can be described in such detail that Jeno believes that the old man is one of the witnesses.

"I wasn't supposed to help you in the first place, you and that girl are heretics, and helping you will cause trouble for our village. But the girl helped us to extinguish the fire and save us from loss. It can be seen that although the villagers are frightened by Nami's appearance, they still thank her from the bottom of their hearts.

"We don't believe in the moon, it just happens to have what we need. Don't worry, sir, I won't leak anything about the village. Jeno found that the people here liked to use the moon to refer to all those who had anything to do with the Bright Moon Cult, so he did as he could.

"I sent her to Ionia in search of the moon. The moon is in that land, looking for its own star spirits. The old man pointed to the sea to the west, although Ionia was in the east, but the land of runetimes was also round, and it was possible to reach the destination by traveling all the way west.

Hearing the old man's answer, a pile of question marks instantly appeared on Jeno's head.

Moon Star Spirit in Ionia? How can it be? Fool whom?

He clearly knew that the Bright Moon Star Spirit was at the Giant God Peak, did this old man deliberately deceive Nami, who was not deeply involved in the world, to go far away, or was it an unintentional move? Why did he have such a false perception that the Bright Moon Star Spirit was in Ionia?

Could this old man be the kind of despicable stranger that people call it?

Jeno stared at the old man until he was stunned by his gaze and touched his gray beard suspiciously.

The old man didn't show a weak expression, that is, he didn't think he had deceived Nami.

So how do you explain the situation at hand......

"When was the last time you saw her, sir?"

"That was a week ago."

"Thank you, sir, for your help, I will find her, and I won't cause you any trouble."

It's been a week, and Jeno has a lot of headaches. In a week's time, the moonstone power used by the merman clan to suppress the abyss has become much weaker, and if the abyss is not sealed in time, the void creatures will pour out of the abyss and begin to spread like a virus through the sea.

As for whether the old man misled Nami, Jeno has no clue for the time being, he has already learned about Nami's whereabouts from the old man, so it is better to go back with these doubts to sort out before acting.

Back aboard the Abyss, Jeno began to sort out what he knew.

One thing that seemed to make no sense had a clue at the moment of a flash of inspiration.
