Chapter 96: Hunting Day (2)

Colin carefully wiped the harpoon in his hand, as for the tip part of the grinding part had been sharpened a few days ago.

"It's finally here, and I'll be an official fisherman after today"

Colin whispered to himself that this time he was very confident that the swordfish would not be as powerful as the big tigerfish no matter how powerful it was, although if Tagil hadn't saved his life that time, he might have died in the belly of the fish.

On top of that, he's also fought with other merfolk against six-meter monsters!

Although he was only playing soy sauce at the time, it was undeniable that this gave him a lot of confidence.

This time it will definitely work.

Fix Millie's carefully cut straps on her body, two harpoons are inserted on top, and another fishbone knife is also fixed around her waist, just a knife fish skin garment.

Standard Fisherman's Gear.

Swimming out of the house, Colin came to Tagil's house, and before he could get closer, he heard the sound of an argument

"Sister, can you give me my harpoon?"

Tajir is not very tall, but he is a big man, and in front of him is a small mermaid, a great contrast.

Colin knew that the petite mermaid was Tagil's own sister, Taliji.

As for the conflict between the two fish, he didn't have to guess to know that it must be because of the hunting day.

"Just say it! How could Sister Liji agree so simply, Tajir has suffered a lot"

Colin said to himself, he didn't plan to come out, he even hid, Taliki didn't have a good color for him, a good friend who went out fishing with his brother all day long, but he was still very afraid of her, so he naturally hid decisively.

At this time, the rivalry between the two siblings has reached its peak.

Taliji's voice was soft, but full of determination and seriousness.

"Don't want harpoons, do you know how our father died, he was killed by the swordfish, and I won't give you anything to fight the swordfish."

Her face was full of anger and she ignored her brother's request.

"Sister, didn't you agree before, besides, I've fought with the big tiger fish and the six-meter-level monsters, isn't it okay?"

Tagil spread his hands helplessly.

"Can it be the same? Anyway, I won't allow you to fight the swordfish."

Taliki is very arrogant, she has a secret that Tajir does not know, she will always remember twenty years ago, when she was only seventeen years old, when her brother Tajir was just born, her mother died after giving birth to her brother, and her father took them to wander together, once they encountered a school of swordfish, her father stuffed the two of them into a small cave, and he blocked the entrance of the cave with his body, and finally was killed by the swordfish in front of Taliji's eyes.

From then on, in her eyes, the swordfish was the most ferocious creature in the sea world, even the monster was far behind, and he prevented his brother from becoming a fisherman because the fisherman had to defeat an adult swordfish alone.

The tragic situation of her father's death is still vivid, how can she agree.

"Sister, you can't stop me, it's a big deal I'll borrow it elsewhere now, two harpoons must be fine"

"Who dare!"

Taliki suddenly raised her voice, and the merfolk around her all shrank their heads, and Taliki looked thin and small, but powerful

Very, she can take Big Tagier alone, she can't do it if she's not a girl.

"Sister, you can't stop me, I'll go today! I've been preparing for this for seven or eight years! I'm going to go even if I'm empty-handed!"

Tajir said bluntly that it was the first time he had spoken to his sister in such a serious tone.

"Brother, can't you not go? Why do you have to be a fisherman, the chief is already preparing to build a school, I still have a little savings, send you to the school, and after you come out, the chief will directly arrange a job! ”

Taliki's tone weakened, and she spoke pleadingly.

Tajir looked at her sister's pleading appearance, and a trace of unbearability flashed in her eyes, but she thought of her ideals again, and shook her head slowly but firmly.

He's going to be a fisherman!

Hearing her brother's words, Taliki trembled, pointed to the door behind her, and said in an almost roaring tone:

", if you leave the house today, don't come in later. ”

Tajir's house belongs to the first batch of built-in houses, two-story wooden houses, the first floor is divided into two large rooms, and the simple structure is two bedrooms and one living room.

Of course, there was a public gate, and a passage, in which Tajir and Taliki were standing.

"Hmm!"

Tajir had been skinny at other times, but now he was heavy, and he simply responded and turned around and swam out of the house.

"Smack"

As soon as Tagil turned, Taliki rushed back to her room, slamming the coral door shut, only to reopen it a moment later, throwing out two brand-new harpoons.

"Take your harpoon,, never come back!"

With a little crying in her voice, Tajir silently picked up the harpoon on the ground, the brand new harpoon, much better than the one she used before, the most important thing is that she doesn't use it at all, and it is not easy for my sister to prepare two such harpoons.

"Tajir, is your sister okay?"

Colin swam out, looked at the closed door, and said with some concern.

"It's okay, it's a big deal to come back and be beaten, my scales are very thick"

Tagil reverted to her previous hippie smile, but there was a firmness in the depths of her eyes.

"Don't worry, sister, I will definitely come back with glory!"

Not only Tajir, but the entire tribe is playing a similar scene at this time, as the family members of the reserves, they are the most entangled type of mermaids, not only thinking that their relatives can become glorious fishermen, but also worrying about their safety, this is a real 'life and death arena'.

"Let's go, I'm afraid the chief will go to the square in a while"

......

By the time Colin and Tajir arrived at the outer square of the tribe, there were already a lot of reserve members gathered here, and the three-meter-high platform composed of quaint fish bones in the center of the square was the fish bones that the fishing team had killed over the years.

There are dozens of enchanted harpoons stuck on the platform, and when the reservists make their return, Connors will personally hand them over the harpoons and congratulate them on becoming true fishermen.

Solemnly wandering around the entire square, the kind Maypott, Jeronsen and other mermaids in the past are also meticulous, wearing formal magic fish suits, and even hanging the teeth of various fierce fish around their necks, the background of the seaweed is too shallow, and the big tribes will even start worshipping the sea god two or three days ago, which is very grand.

The Day of the Hunt is truly a word of ancient times, and before the Age of Magic, the history was terrifying.

Half an hour passed in silence, and Connors swam in from a distance, this time he rarely wore a knifefish skin, thick but also very compact, and it took Joanna more than ten days to make it little by little.

As she approached the platform, Avrine separated, which was only accessible to the reservists except the Chief when he became an official fisherman, and even if the Chief was only able to climb once a year on this day, the rest of the time the platform was torn down.

This is the glory of the fisherman, and the magician cannot set foot on it, not even the great magician!

Standing on the high platform for a hundred years, thinking back to the obscure articles he had spent a lot of time memorizing, Connors spoke loudly:

"Darkness covers the bottom of the sea, and Khatam is born in the grass, but stands on the top of the mountain......"

A total of two or three hundred texts sang the praises of the glory of the Hatamu fishermen, and because of the tone and the requirements of the pause, it took five minutes for Connors to memorize this passage that had been passed down from ancient times.

Under this kind of separation, Connors himself was a little enthusiastic, not to mention the dozens of reserve members under the high platform, they had already trembled with excitement, and even the older generation of fishermen such as Mepott and Jer were flushed and their mood could not be suppressed.

These are the glory of the fisherman!

"Finally, I would like to add that every mermaid who lives is not only responsible for himself, but also for the mermaids around him, and I hope you can understand this and not let your fellow relatives suffer. ”

In such an occasion, there is nothing to say about the possibility of backing down and saving your life, but Connors still hopes that these reserves will cherish their lives even more.

"Take them with you."

"Yes, Chieftain"

Mepott was at the top of the pack, with Gyle and Cleveland to his flank, followed by half of the regular fishermen and a large number of reserves, and Avriline at the back.

As for Connors himself, he could only stay by the high platform for the whole day, and he didn't even meet the rules for eating.

"Let's hope these boys come back safely......"
