Chapter 1203: Labyrinth Treasure (3)

In the sound of "banging" water, the white-eyed fish Maderuding came out, and then, the water on his body slid down like raindrops falling on lotus leaves.

His face was full of surprise, but also with a sense of joy: "You, you, you're here, so soon?" ”

I smiled and asked, "When do you think I should come?" Ten years from now? ”

Maderudin was stunned for a moment and said: "Well, I feel that your strength has become a lot stronger, indeed, you have this strength, and you should come, but I'm curious, how did you get here?" The Maritime Patrol didn't notice you at all. ”

"Happened to get a portal." I say.

"I see......" Maderudin nodded.

The rest of the merfolk followed, but none of them spoke, and their faces were not as kind as those of Madrudin, on the contrary, they were all full of vigilance and hostility that they tried to hide.

"You haven't convinced them yet?" I asked.

"What?" Maderudin was stunned for a moment, then said, "Well, it's not a matter of not convincing, I, I just want to show them how you can take the treasure from here and there, and then watch you leave." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, you were talking about helping me get the treasure." I say.

"Yes," Maderudin nodded, "I'll help you, but they won't." ”

I looked at these "handsome men and beautiful women" who were very much in line with human aesthetics and said, "In other words, they are actually here to spy on me?" ”

Maderudin was a little embarrassed: "At least, we are not enemies now......"

"Well," I said, "I can handle it myself even if no one helps me, but I'd like to see what you can do for me, and by the way, try the food I've brought you." ”

I pushed the plate towards the water, and Maderudin hesitated, but picked up a small piece of pastry.

The other merfolk were indifferent.

"Well, it's no longer interesting to be good-looking," Leo was a little disappointed, "and the concept in my head is still that set of backward and outdated things." ”

"It took nearly a hundred years for the Chinese people to get used to it, and it was still after being beaten," I said, "besides, these mermaids haven't been beaten yet." ”

Then, I said to Maderudin, who was savoring, "How does it taste?" This is a kraken made. ”

Maderudin's eyes widened as if he had eaten poison, and the other merfolk were even more excited to draw their sidearms.

Their actions made the water tremble, and the plate almost toppled over, I gently scooped up the plate and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, it is a kraken expelled by the Kraken clan, and it does not live in the main plane, but in the water elemental plane of the Endless Void, and the raw materials for these foods are also produced there." ”

Maderudin wanted to vomit but didn't dare to vomit, looked at his companions, but swallowed it carefully, and said, "Really, a special gift......"

One of the men with a gun in the merfolk whispered something, and Madrudin explained in a low voice.

I was a little unhappy: "Whatever you say, at least you should take care of my feelings, otherwise, it will be too disrespectful of etiquette." ”

The merfolk's face changed, and the man was even more angry.

"I'm sorry......" Madrudin, apparently torn between two things, "my companion thought you had come to humiliate us." ”

I shook my head: "I don't need to do such a thing, I want to humiliate you, I have enough strength, these foods, just the most appetizing thing I can find, after all, apart from you, I know a sea race, but unfortunately, she is a kraken, by the way, so that your companions don't have to be too nervous, if you can speak the land language, it is good to communicate with me directly, I have seen many creatures who can clearly speak the universal language but deliberately only speak their own language, this does not seem noble, on the contrary, it will only appear arrogant and ignorant." ”

Speaking of this, the faces of several mermaids changed, obviously, these people understood.

"You've changed a lot," said Madrudin, "and more and more of a strong and superior temperament." ”

"I do represent some of the terrestrial creatures, but what about you?" I asked him, "What is your status now?" Can you represent the will of the merfolk? ”

"I ...... Now, it can be considered representative of our race," Madrudin was a little weak, "I will personally help you take the treasure, but it is better for you to leave after you obtain the treasure, after all, this is the sea realm, and you are not a land creature, and it is not suitable to stay here for a long time." ”

"Well, I understand you," I said, "you want me to go quickly, and I want to get the treasure quickly, this is the premise of our cooperation, but I have some questions, and I want to find out, this is also a place where you can help me, but if you don't know, can your companions help you answer?" Rest assured, it's just some details about history, and it doesn't involve where we are now, and there is no need for hands-on help. ”

I put forward my own conditions, and Maderudin seemed a little hesitant - at the beginning, we had actually exchanged a lot of information about history and had a confrontation of ideas in the conversation, but it was obvious that he alone could not compare to so many mermaids, and even if these mermaids deliberately said some facts that were deduced or distorted, for me, it was just a matter of taking a little effort to sort it out.

At this moment, a female figure passed through her companion and came to Madrudin.

"That's her." Leo said, "Is it a princess?" Saint? Priest? It shouldn't be the queen......"

This woman, although she is the weakest one in terms of strength, is more in line with human aesthetics - although I can't appreciate it, I can give a relatively objective score based on her facial features and figure, and her score is significantly higher.

"Hello Minotaur from the land," the woman has the style of a nobleman and a superior, but it is not so meaningful compared to the real human nobles and elves, "I am Bona, the priestess of the great sea god." ”

"Hello noble priestess, it turns out that you speak the language of the land," I said, "I am the Minotaur Bihon Bloodhammer Doon, and now, I am not a believer in any god. ”

Listening to my words, the faces of Maderudin and Priest Bona, as well as a few merfolk who seemed to understand, changed their faces.

They were amazed that I was an "unbeliever", of course, the names of the unbeliever, the traitor, the blasphemer, etc., are not the same in all races, the meaning is similar, the problem is that because of the real existence of the gods, the people without faith have become the biggest outliers, just like a man in ancient China, who claimed to not know the way of Confucius and Mencius, and dared to cut his hair short into inches, and put on modern clothes - anyone who sees such a person will only think that this person has gone crazy, does not know how to be polite, righteous and shameless, and is no different from a beast.

Of course, in our world, it may be a little more serious - without faith, that is a fallen sinner, either a demon believer or an undead lackey.

Even magicians, some of them have faith, and those who don't will not say it openly, at least they will maintain their reverence for the gods in words.

If I say it directly, it's just like "I'm not a human being, I'm going to fall into a demon" or something like that.

However, I will also say it in front of them......

Maderudin reacted quickly and said, "Well, you've become a magician, so of course you don't care about that, but it doesn't matter, does it?" ”

I had a few debates with him about faith and the gods, and he obviously couldn't convince me, but he stubbornly thought that I was relying on great strength rather than sufficient reason, so I was a little unconvinced, and now when we meet again, my attitude is much more tactful.

"So, Lord Bighon," said Priest Bona, "what do you want to know as a descendant of Minotaur the Minotaur?" ”

I admired her straight to the point, and said, "I want to know all the accounts of you merfolk about the Minotaur the Great, including this island, how he got here, how he built such a labyrinth treasure, everything you know." ”

"This knowledge is recorded in our temple, and we can convey to you all the legends and stories...... "Priest Bona," said Priest Bona, "but it will take a little time, so let Priest Madrudin help you enter the treasure and obtain the treasure first......"

"Oh? "When I heard this, I became interested in something else, "Maderudin turned out to be a priest of the temple, no wonder we were ...... Hehe, we're talking so speculatively. ”

Maderudin was even more embarrassed, and said a little vaguely: "Well, at that time, I was in danger, of course, I could only try my best to hide it...... You won't blame me for this, will you? ”

"Not really." I said, "I actually have a guess, with your knowledge, you should not be an ordinary person, in the mermaid clan, at least you should be a nobleman, but I didn't expect you to be a noble priest." ”

"Your Excellency Bijon is here for the treasure, why isn't he in a hurry to get the treasure?" Priest Bona asked.

"I did come for the treasure, but the treasure is only part of it," I said, "and I am very interested in that history, especially in the origin of the treasure, and what you think of it, to put it bluntly, I am a magician, not just a minotaur, and I have the same desire for the treasures of my ancestors and the unknown knowledge. ”

Priest Bona and Maderudin looked at each other, and Maderudin said, "I knew you would be interested in this, and I was ready. ”

I was a little surprised: "You deliberately prepared?" ”
