Many more days passed.

Taeyang can't remember the exact number of days. Because he didn't care about the number of days, which were as monotonous as the numbers on an electronic screen that could be scrolled through at will. So he didn't remember it at all.

……

Under the blue sky, the blue sea is very calm. The sun is warm.

Taeyang, the mermaid girl - the uncrowned mermaid queen (only the coronation ceremony can be held by subduing all the mermaid tribes), floating on the sea, lazy, enjoying the rare calm after this time of rushing.

"I really want to live like this until we all get old." Xiao Yu said with a sigh.

Of course, she didn't know that the person next to her already had an ageless body, and his lifespan was almost endless.

Of course, Taiyang won't tell Xiaoyu about it. Because in his opinion, these are small things. The most important thing is to answer the questions in his heart one by one. Because, this has occupied his whole person.

The circumstances of his life have brought him benefits and naturally negative effects.

But as long as it's a choice, you won't care about it anymore once you figure it out.

Taeyang stood up, exactly like he had done countless times before, his head still couldn't break through the water, the water surface was like an indestructible boundary, no matter what Taeyang did, he just couldn't break through the sea.

Even if he sprinted from the bottom of the sea to the sky above the surface as fast as he could, he would only drag a long stretch of water into the air, and eventually he would be dragged into the sea by the sea water that suddenly possessed magical tenacity.

……

"Such a day is indeed good! But until we've finished what we're going to do, it's not time for us to enjoy. ”

"Next, we're going to the Arctic Ocean."

Taeyang said.

Although the Pacific Ocean is vast, they have been to every place north of the equator where there are many people and mermaids, except for the area south of the equator. And they all subdued the mermaid tribes that were almost barbaric.

"Arctic Ocean," Xiao Yu made a thoughtful and cute face, and then a very enjoyable expression appeared on her face, "What a nice name!" The people there shouldn't be so tough......"

In fact, there is only one mermaid tribe in the Arctic Ocean, and it is an extremely fierce and ferocious existence. They take the highest pride in being able to hunt polar bears. Polar bears that are hunted will be eaten by them. And it's the kind that doesn't even have fur left.

It's like a polar bear is a delicacy, and the merfolk of the North Sea are evil spirits who haven't eaten in their lives.

None of the polar bears that went into the water survived the encounter with a fishtail.

So in the polar bear community, no one has ever known that there is such a terrifying existence in the ocean.

"How did you deduce the connection between whether a place is nice or not and whether it is strong?"

Taeyang looked at the mermaid girl and asked curiously.

☆

In the vast Pacific Ocean, two torpedoes-like things flew through the water. Whether it is a big fish, a small fish, or a shark passing by, they will be so frightened that they can only turn around and run.

As for those who are too big to turn around because their bodies are too big, they can only subconsciously make a super right-angle turn.

For example, whale ...... Its body dozens of meters long was about to be pierced by something flying quickly, and it must have been too late to react on its own, and there seemed to be only one result to greet him!

……

Taiyang grabbed Xiaoyu's hand and passed under the whale almost zero distance. And the whale made a 90-degree super turn urgently.

……

"Haha, Mr. Tai, it was really thrilling just now, but it was fun! Let's play again, okay? Xiao Yu danced happily, and seemed to be excited. Speeds of more than 600 kilometers per hour could not affect her movements.

☆

Time will only become meaningful in the hands of those who do practical things.

And if you don't happen to be a practical person, or you have a practical heart, but the reality doesn't give you practical things to "do", then you may think of some strange things when you are bored.

Those weird things may not be what you want to think about, but in your mind, these things are not only appearing, but also partying, DJ and dance music are the most hilarious.

And those weird thoughts that follow the music can't wait to jump out of your brain and into reality......

……

Of course, all this is imaginary and meaningless.

The most meaningful thing at the moment may be more meaningful for you to study hard when you are still a student. Even though the history teacher who was talking about World War II wasn't your homeroom teacher, you wanted to open your eyes and listen to it.

Even if it is one more point in the college entrance examination.

For you who have already had to work, although you still miss campus life from time to time, and miss the comfortable days when you slept in college for a few years, the most practical thing at the moment is that it is more meaningful to find a job.

Although it is already the fifth day of the lunar month, it will be Laba in two days, and it will be the New Year in 20 days...... But no matter how good or bad the job is, how much or little the salary is, as long as there is a job, it is a sunny day.

At least then, regardless of whether others ask about your work by accident or intentionally, you can have some confidence to say what I am doing, and then you can ask back as a matter of course:

What about you? Where did you make your fortune, take me with you after the New Year?

……

The above may be the most verbose expression of "not knowing happiness in the midst of happiness".

However, for Taeyang, his brain is already working at an unimaginably fast speed. For such a rambling thing about Rory, it was just a flash in his mind. So it won't look verbose.

So he can think a lot.

For example, the best example of not knowing happiness in the midst of happiness is when you are on land, envying the fish that are free in the water. But after being in the water, the fact of being free has to be said separately.

And the most important thing is that he wants to go ashore. Want to go back to the bustling city. Although the city abandoned him. There are even times when he is extremely indifferent to him.

But he couldn't get ashore.

The sea is a prison from which he cannot escape.

Water is the strongest shackle in the world.

☆

The Bering Strait is ahead.

At this point, the land is like reality, and whether you look at it or not, it's there waiting for you. And the reality is often harsh.

Taeyang's speed slowed down. If you close your eyes, you can see things that are extremely far away, as easily as you can read what is stored in a computer. This change is similar to the fact that he is deep in the huge prison of the sea, and Taeyang has slowly adapted to it.

But what he didn't expect was that the vision of his myopic eyes not only did not see clearly because he had no glasses, but not only saw things very clearly, but also broadened his field of vision a lot.

——☆——

Bering Strait –

Location: Located between Cape Diezhnev, the easternmost point of the Eurasian continent, and Cape Prince of Wales, the westernmost point of the American continent, 169°40′ west longitude and 65°35′ north latitude.

Overview: Approximately 85 km wide, 37 km at its narrowest point, and between 30 m and 50 m deep.

……

——☆——

Taeyang was curious about how big (and wide) the Bering Strait really was, so he began to think back to what he had learned in high school geography class.

Originally, he thought that he would not be able to remember it because of the long time passed, however, a series of information began to appear in his mind. It's as if the projector is connected to a computer that is playing relevant information.

Although he had encountered many miraculous things, Taeyang was once again shocked by this strange thing.

Of course, he must have no way of knowing that a magical being somewhere in his brain emitted a magical radio wave, connected to a fiber optic cable under the sea, and successfully used QQ Browser to search for relevant information about the Bering Strait on the Internet......

The mermaid girl's speed is completely following the speed of her teacher, Tai Teacher Taiyang. So after Taeyang slowed down, she made a difficult "brake" to avoid crashing into Taeyang.

At this time, Taeyang's speed had stopped.

Not only was he puzzled by the information that had suddenly appeared about the Bering Strait, but he was also puzzled by the magical vision that seemed to him to be right in front of him at such a long distance.

This feeling is indescribable, it seems to be wearing 3D glasses to watch a 3D movie, the original wide picture is still very wide, but no matter how wide the picture is, the picture in the movie is right in front of your eyes.

"Teacher Tai," the mermaid girl came to Taiyang's side, first followed Taiyang's line of sight, then looked at Taiyang, and she asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"In front of it is a strait called the Bering Strait. It was a strait that wasn't anything special, but I saw something different. You see, the land on both sides is not very far away from us. ”

"yes, it's far away, so far away that if you don't say I wouldn't have noticed, it's land."

"It's something that is far away for ordinary people, but it seems to me as if it's right in front of my eyes. What do you say about this feeling? Just like a thing called a movie invented by us landers, there is a presentation method called 3D, which can present the picture in the movie directly in front of your eyes. ”

"Teacher Tai, your vision is different, and you must see things differently! It's hard to understand what you're saying! ”

"It's okay, I'll take you to the cinema to watch a 3D movie when I have the chance. You'll know what I mean. ”

The two teachers and students (one person, one mermaid) did not discuss this issue too much, and they continued to move on. Although the land tempts Taeyang like a dream, Taeyang keeps reminding himself that it is just a dream, and only by continuing to move forward can the dream come true.

Shore, he is definitely going to go up!

……

……

Before he knew it, the temperature had already begun to make Taeyang's body react. Although it was not enough to make his strengthened body feel cold, the instinctive reaction of his body did not disappear because of the strengthening of his body. The instinct is still there, but it doesn't cause discomfort anymore.

This is a good direction to go.

I don't know what will happen if humanity goes in this direction? At the very least, there should be less pain in this world. And that increases, hopefully there are more good things.

They are moving very fast. In a short period of time, on the sea ahead, more and more white began to appear in sight.

They have come to the real Arctic Ocean.

The mermaid girl made a strange mouth shape at Taeyang's signal. It would be strange in normal times, but this time it is different. Because after the mermaid girl finished this action, a magical electric wave came out of her mouth.

Not all merfolk are capable of doing this. Only a mermaid with a special bloodline can learn and be able to do it.

There is more than one kind of this strange mouth shape, and there are only three of them that the mermaid girl Xiaoyu has mastered so far. But this was enough for her to become the emperor of the entire mermaid clan.

After a while, the mermaid girl began to change her mouth shape.

After that, the third type of mouth shape ......

When the third mouth shape is made, it can be clearly seen that the original ocean is different from the ocean at this time.

The most noticeable change is that the seawater begins to change from liquid to solid.

The sea is freezing. And it's not the usual ice.

Taeyang could feel the temperature of the sea from a few degrees Celsius to a few degrees below zero, and the temperature continued to drop. In a few moments, the entire ocean seemed to have frozen.

Legend has it that the best cosmic rule of the North Sea merfolk is to freeze the sea quickly. The polar bears that died at the hands of the merfolk of the North Sea encountered the merfolk in the ocean and were frozen into ice bears unknowingly.

Of course, no matter how powerful the icing technique of these merfolk tribes, which are called the mermaid tribes of the North Sea, which encompasses the entire Arctic Ocean, they are nothing in Taiyang's eyes.

But the battlefield is not his, it is the mermaid girl Xiaoyu's.

In order to succeed in being crowned Empress and ruling over the Merfolk Clan, she will need to conquer the many Merfolk tribes scattered throughout the Earth's oceans.

And the old tradition is that all it takes is to defeat the proudest warriors of the merfolk tribe. This can be regarded as a way of conquest of civilization, and it is not good to avoid too much bloodshed, and the blue ocean has turned into a magma-like red.

So far, although Taeyang has also been able to directly use the rules of the universe to do some things, he has no clue about the rules of the universe that can be directly used by him.

He didn't know how he suddenly had the ability to slay dragons directly.

Although it is said that after the meteorite attack, his body did undergo some drastic changes. However, the great strength embodied by the dragon, the changes in his previous body were far from enough to deal with.

Therefore, he can only explain all this with the rules of the universe that the mermaid girl told him. The name Rules of the Universe is already powerful in itself. And the mermaid girl said that he was an extremely talented human in applying the rules of the universe.

The rules of the universe are there, and like a magical sea, he needs to explore. It's just that he's really curious. However, curiosity does not necessarily lead to answers.

He didn't know how he applied the rules of the universe. As soon as he moved, it was as if he had already set up a program, and the sword appeared in his hand.

Just by thinking about it, his entire body was able to burst out with very powerful power. This power is capable of defeating a powerful dragon that only exists in legends.

He didn't know how the merfolk used the rules of the universe to achieve all kinds of fantasy operations.

For example, small glowing lights in the deep sea of the Mariana Trench.

For example, at this time, the mermaid girl just closed her eyes, and the frozen ocean around her turned into a sea of water again.

……

"Very good, you have broken through the ice array that our clan is proud of so easily, and you have also quickly mastered the method of arranging the formation, you already have the qualifications to fight with the strongest person in your clan."

In the ocean, as if falling from the sky, three mermaids appeared who could be called big men.

The mermaid girl was a little surprised, remembering that it was she who said it before, the name of the Arctic Ocean is very beautiful, and the people are ...... But the idea has completely changed.

Yes, who said that whether a place has a good name or not can be linked to the strength of the people in that place?

I don't know why, why are the people of the mermaid clan like this...... Raw? After Taiyang saw the three primitive and simple biao-shaped men, he thought suspiciously.

In fact, since 10,000 years ago, except for a few people living in the Holy City, the rest of the merfolk have begun to degenerate in a terrible direction.

The ancestors of the merfolk were imprisoned in the sea by the gods since ancient times, but their feet were bound by the flesh of a fish's tail. At heart, they are still human.

However, 10,000 years ago, a catastrophe that swept through the merfolk began to ravage the entire Earth's oceans.

The merfolk are beginning to evolve in a terrible direction – or rather degenerate! The fishtail-like lower body begins to erode upwards. The merfolk began to move in more directions towards the "fish". What's even more terrifying is that some people start to become not like people, not people at all, but beasts!

……

……

"Let me tell me, whether the name of a place is good or not has nothing to do with the toughness of the people in this place," Taeyang said after the mermaid girl cast an innocent look, "Relationship! ”

"Uh-huh~" The mermaid girl Xiaoyu nodded in response.

But when they arrived at the place where the mermaid tribe lived, led by three big men, their worldview was once again disrupted.

If Taiyang is a standard modern person, young and energetic, the youthful atmosphere still exists, but it has faded to the immature color, so what is left is a very standard modern urban person's appearance. And those three big Han mermaids are primitive people in primitive times......

The leader of the mermaid tribe who appeared in front of them at this time was a fairy-like person that modern people envied very much.

Who says that the name of a place has nothing to do with the strength of the people in the place?

The mermaid girl Xiaoyu answered this question with the eyes of Tai Yang, the teacher who looked at him. Taiyang, on the other hand, answered this question in his own psychology.

——★★★——

- A special section dedicated to my good brother Bear -

When approaching this place, Taeyang felt that this place was different.

Here, not the North Pole. Rather, it is a magnetic pole of the geomagnetic field in the Northern Hemisphere.

Although at this time, Taiyang already knew that many different things existed. But Taeyang is still an earthly human.

In the cognition of human beings on earth, the earth is a magical celestial body. Among the eight planets in the solar system, the Earth is the only planet with life in the current human cognition.

Is the existence of life accidental? It cannot be confirmed. However, among the many harsh conditions for the existence of life, the earth's magnetic field cannot be ignored.

Magnetic field - As soon as Taeyang thought of the keyword magnetic field in his mind, it was as if a web page had opened in his mind, and related concepts about magnetic fields appeared.

——☆——

The magnetic field is a special substance that cannot be seen or touched.

The magnetic field exists objectively

A magnetic field is present around the magnet

The earth is a magnet

……

——☆——

These things...... It seems that I have already learned it in geography class. Taeyang muttered inwardly. As for what appeared in his mind, Taeyang didn't think it was the result of his thoughts being imaged in his mind.

And in fact, it can be said that it can be said that it is not! But more than that, yes.

One of the world-famous four great Chinese inventions, the compass works because the earth itself is a magnet.

For things like the explanation of entries that appeared in his mind, Taeyang felt that it was very rudimentary.

But when he saw the six black dots at the end that could not be ignored but the sense of presence was obviously not very strong, the ellipsis "......", Taeyang's psychology rose in vain with a feeling of being turned away.

This feeling is very low, and it doesn't make Taeyang feel tingling, but he can feel a dull pain, which is an even more terrifying pain. The stinging pain will soon disappear, but the dull pain will seem to follow all the time, like a shadow, as long as there is light.

Civilization is a special existence in the universe.

Human civilization is still a baby in the universe.

But it seems to have inherited the desire of an ancestor who looked up at the starry sky when he walked out of the African continent, human beings have been progressing, and the development of science and technology has not only allowed human beings to completely defeat all living beings on the earth, but also to have a better understanding of the planet that has nurtured human beings.

For example, the Earth is an oval-shaped sphere.

For example, at a certain point on the earth, there is a star permanently.

For example, the North Pole is not in the same place as the North Pole Magnetism

……

For a moment, Taeyang wondered why he knew that this was a pole of the geomagnetic field. But only for a moment. After that moment, he took it for granted that he was supposed to know.

Because the whole earth is ready in his mind. As long as you close your eyes, you can feel everything on Earth.

Of course, everything here is also very rudimentary.

……

……

"I'm really sorry to miss it in front of a guest from afar."

can be called the former K-pop star, and now the mermaid leader of the little fresh meat said apologetically.

Before officially meeting the mermaid leader, Taiyang saw a hunt of the mermaid tribe in the North Sea. The merfolk of the North Sea, led by their leader, have frozen a sea area.

The hardness of this sea is far greater than that of ordinary steel, and it can even directly hit aerospace alloy materials. Moreover, this sea area is frozen from the bottom of the sea to the surface of the sea.

In the middle of this frozen sea, a muscular polar bear's fur that had fluctuated with the sea suddenly froze. It's deadly trapped.

However, this state lasted only a few seconds, and the hard sea turned back into soft water. The polar bear's fur is white and shiny again.

Before actually leaving, the polar bear deliberately turned his head to look at Taeyang.

It was this glance that made Taeyang feel a tearful feeling in his heart. It was a feeling from the bottom of my heart. If Taeyang was trapped in the sea at this time and couldn't extricate himself, that look gave him an upward force.

No matter how big the prison of the sea is, how strong the shackles of the sea are...... One day, he Taiyang will definitely break free from the shackles and break through the prison.

His world itself should belong to the starry starry sky.

Although the visual distance in the sea is not far away, Taeyang can always see him. However, there is still a long way to go.

"This is a very important hunt. Please wait a moment while we go and catch the game and give you a welcome feast. ”

The merfolk leader didn't look at the little fish from beginning to end. The reason why he stopped the most important hunt in the clan in many years was entirely because of his guest, Taiyang.

originally thought that this would be enough to give Taiyang the face of the guest. However, what the leader of the mermaid tribe of the North Sea did not expect, and even shocked, and then feared that a scene of fear had happened.

A sword appeared in Taeyang's hand. The merfolk leader didn't even know when the sword appeared. He stood between them and the polar bears heading away from shore.

- Off topic

Say something very important.

My good brother Xiong has learned the magical operation of tipping in the past few days, and has been tipping this book for many days in a row...... I was particularly impressed.

I have many friends who know that I write novels, but there is one person who has supported me since a long, long time ago. He may not remember the specifics, but I remember them very clearly. For so many years, it has been hitting the streets, and there is no way to reap it. This chapter is just a subtle expression of gratitude.

(There's no way to know what the future holds, but there is a chance that a physical book will be published in the future, and the content of this chapter can be modified, but not a word of these digressions will be changed - this will be the only one of my many requests for publishers that cannot be changed.) The story of this small chapter is deliberately projected into the plot of the novel based on the true story, and the special story is especially grateful to this good brother for his support to me all the time! ）

——★★★——

"Guest, what are you?"

The eyes of the leader of the merfolk tribe of the North Sea were filled with fear. But he has a good background, he has received a good education since he was a child, and he has experienced a lot of polishing after becoming an adult, and his natural heart is not ordinary.

Although he was afraid, he reacted appropriately. The tone is also well controlled.

And Taiyang's state at this time is, that (referring to the polar bear that is far away) is my brother, dare to move and try!

The leader of the mermaid tribe in the North Sea seems to have already cultivated a vicious look, and he can see it very accurately when he exudes an undesirable aura from Taiyang's body.

Taeyang naturally understands the performance of the mermaid leader. There's no need to do it if you don't agree with each other. Because, in Taiyang's view, the state of the mermaid leader at this time is that as long as you command, you will listen to you in the sword mountain and the sea of fire.

"Cancel this hunt!"

Taeyang said it naturally. However, this natural argument has tremendous power. It's like an unstoppable tsunami, tornado, typhoon, earthquake.

"Okay!"

The merfolk leader nodded, suddenly realizing that something was wrong, and then quickly changed to bending over. The merfolk who had been gathered scattered into the distance. For a moment, it was as if they didn't exist in the ocean.

Taiyang will certainly not directly say the reason. Although the leader of the mermaid tribe in the North Sea knew that his strength was very strong, he still did not dare to make a mistake in front of this guest. You can even only bow your head and speak. I don't dare to ask why.

That's for the best.

However, Taiyang still has to give some explanation.

"The legendary dragon has broken free from its cage, killing many of the Merfolk and destroying the Merfolk's global network. The mermaid empress made a huge mistake 10,000 years ago and has been duly punished, and the new empress has succeeded to the throne and is just waiting to be crowned. ”

"Excuse me, where is the new Empress?"

Naturally, the merfolk tribe of the North Sea was also ordered by the Holy City, but a large number of people who went to the Pacific Ocean lost their news after that, and there was no news from the Holy City after that.

Although the North Sea mermaid was a powerful vein in the most glorious era of mermaids 10,000 years ago, it could not escape when the disaster came 10,000 years ago......

The sudden appearance of a dragon that only existed in legends but never actually appeared, and there was no news in the direction of the Holy City, and among their many speculations, the one that stood up to scrutiny was the fall of the Holy City.

And they have also started a hunting mode that has not been activated for 10,000 years, in preparation for the coming crisis.

But it wasn't the dragon that was waiting for him, it was Taeyang's guest.

The North Sea mermaid is not simply a line of the mermaid family. This is also why the North Sea Merfolk are the most powerful merfolk force outside of the Holy City.

"Right in front of you!"

The mermaid girl was a little annoyed. Because from beginning to end, this good-looking person who could hardly tell whether it was a man or a woman didn't even look at her directly.

Only then did the leader of the North Sea merfolk tribe notice the young mermaid whom he had thought was Taiyang's maid at first. No wonder the chief thinks so.

Because after coming out of the holy city, Xiaoyu threw away the cumbersome clothes that could be called anti-human and put on Taeyang's T-shirt that had been soaked in the sea for so many years, not only did it not get old, but it became more and more brand-new, as if it had evolved with Taeyang.

Taeyang, on the other hand, is naked.

The abdominal muscles are still not noticeable, but they have faintly appeared. The chest is not large, but it is strong. It's not the kind of fitness maniac's body like fists and embroidered legs.,But it seems to have a huge magic power.,Let the mermaid girl who is just in love can't extricate herself and want to rely on.。

The leader wanted to say something. It seems to be to explain something. But the mermaid girl Xiaoyu didn't give him this chance.

"I'm here to subdue you."

"I ask you in the name of the mermaid ancestor, but you are still loyal to the mermaid tradition, do you choose to surrender or fight!"

It seems like an ancient tradition, or something, but somewhere in the merfolk chieftain has begun to burn. He didn't worry about anything because of Taeyang's identity.

Because Taeyang's silence represents everything.

Moreover, even if Taeyang wants to intervene, he will stick to the tradition of the mermaid clan.

The tradition of the merfolk is that the merfolk are able to dominate all other creatures like the land-based people, and control the entire ocean. He knew exactly what that meant.

"Fighting, of course!"

"According to tradition, I will fight you with the strongest power I have just mastered in your Beihai lineage!"

"Okay, then in ten seconds, the frozen sea is wider and harder than anyone's."

No superfluous nonsense. Say do it.

Ten seconds passed, and it passed quickly. The mermaid girl didn't care about the shocked expression of the mermaid leader at all, but looked at his Tai teacher Taiyang proudly, hiding a little expectation in her pride. He was looking forward to her teacher...... rewards.

With himself as the center, the merfolk leader froze the sea with a radius of ten meters. Under normal circumstances, in such a period of time, it would be impossible for him to freeze such a small amount of sea.

The reason for this poor result is that he has no more oceans to freeze.

Because those seas are frozen.

In other words, he was already trapped to death.

"Yes, it's great!"

Taiyang said dotingly. After gently pinching the girl's deliberately rubbed face, he continued: "But don't be proud. ”

According to the textbook books of the mermaids, the universe is full of all kinds of ready-made things, and these things are all kinds of cosmic rules.

These cosmic rules are like the knowledge recorded in a book book for those who have talents, and they can be learned by just learning them.

The pace of learning can be fast and slow. Some are fast and some are very slow.

Very slowly, very quickly, the leader of the mermaid tribe of the North Sea has seen a lot, but he has never seen a speed like the new empress after 10,000 years.

It's so fast!!

It's so fast to learn!

It's freezing too fast!

"I, Rose Poller, on behalf of all the people of the North Sea Merfolk, express my absolute submission to the new Empress, and I will be absolutely loyal to the Empress in all my future actions!"

Only if you are familiar with the mermaid tradition can you know the power of this sentence of surrender!

Behind the word "absolute" is the real absolute!

What is really absolute? The real one is definitely until death.

……

……

The real habitat of the North Sea Mermaid is in a very beautiful place. The place seemed to face the brightest star in the night sky forever. This star also has a beautiful name.

"Look, this star above our heads......"

Ross Poller seemed to be talking to his new empress, and he had to dig through the thick ice and make a hole in order to see the star.

Taeyang passed by the cave and took a look, and there was indeed a very bright star.

That's the North Star!

This is the North Pole.

After passing the North Pole, about half the way into another ocean. That ocean is also a sea of great variety among the merfolk tribes.

Taeyang's heart is filled with the entire sea of stars, so it is impossible for him to stay on one star for too long. Even the North Star, with so many beautiful legends.

As always, he closed his eyes, mountains, plains, sea, magma...... One by one, they appeared in his mind. This seems to be what the Earth looks like.

But it always feels like some, if not many, places, some things are deliberately hidden. If you want to see what is hidden, you need to lift the lid that covers it yourself.

It's like...... There are very important things in the computer that have been deliberately encrypted by some people, and you need to find a way to crack them.

When he looked at the place, intentionally or unconsciously, he suddenly had a strange feeling.

This strange feeling made him open his eyes immediately.

It's like having a dream in the dark of night, as if you dream something terrible, and then you open your eyes in fear. So he woke up.

However, when he woke up, he forgot what the terrible thing was. Judging from the reaction of the whole body, it is clear that I dreamed of something terrible.

Some things may not be able to be brought back after waking up from a dream. But there are some things, like the really scary things in nightmares, that you can bring back if you think about them.

Because the terrible thing didn't leave you, but the thing was so terrible that it was beyond the capacity of your brain to accept it, and it was hidden for a while.

……

That strange feeling...... Something terrible......

Taeyang was stunned in his heart.

That strange feeling, that horrible thing...... How should it be described?

That strange feeling is the feeling of heading towards something terrible. For example, walking towards the gallows...... That's right, that horrible thing is something like a gallows guillotine.

Taeyang suddenly understood.

Their way had to pass through that place. That is, they are heading towards that terrible thing. That thing has a name, it's called the Maelstrom.

The place where the maelstrom is located is the birthplace of Norse mythology. And in this place, the merfolk tribe is quite dense.

Taeyang looked at the mermaid girl. Suddenly I don't know what the road ahead will be......

"Teacher Tai ......"

The reason why the mermaid girl has been listening to the description of the leader of the North Sea tribe is purely out of etiquette. Her mind is mainly on Taeyang.

When Taeyang looked at her, she simply and directly threw away the damn etiquette and came to Taeyang's side.

The mermaid girl looked at Taeyang suspiciously.

The extent of the night in the Arctic Circle has shrunk to a tiny area around the North Pole. At one point, a light came from the hole.

The entire Earth's Arctic Circle has officially ushered in her Polar Day.

It was at this time that the mermaid girl Xiaoyu came to Taiyang's side.

Taeyang said, "It's time for us to go!" ”

☆

Greenland, spelled Greenland in English. However, Greenland is not green. It was an almost snow-capped land.

Although Taeyang did not stop as she passed through the waters of Greenland, her eyes were looking towards the largest island on earth. The reluctance is so rich.

The mermaid girl watched as Taeyang stared at the landing many times.

Although she could understand that feeling in her heart, she couldn't find any other way than to work harder in the hope of one day being able to return to land, and although she had been moving quickly in the water, the crampedness in her heart had been seen by Taeyang.

"You don't have to think about anything, you just have to be yourself. You don't need to worry about anything else. There I am! ”

The mermaid girl smiled. The previous crampedness is gone. The so-called comprehension, she interprets it vividly.

☆

Another large island came into their sight.

Taeyang knows this is Iceland. The island is much smaller than Greenland, but it's still a big island.

On this island there is a country. And about a thousand meters below the water of this island, there lives a large tribe of merfolk. This tribe was once a giant merfolk kingdom in the ocean.

The next thing they have to do is subdue this tribe.

The vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, second only to the Pacific Ocean, is inhabited by a number of merfolk as the Pacific Ocean. Especially in the North Atlantic, the merfolk are most densely populated.

In the North Atlantic, the highest concentration of merfolk is near Scandinavia.

What Taiyang was most curious about was that the gathering place of these merfolk tribes actually surrounded the maelstrom as if they were guarding something.

That's why he decided to take a detour to Iceland first.

After learning that the mermaid gathering place here is so dense, Taiyang still wonders why there is such a dense and frequent mermaid activity, but the humans on land have never received tangible evidence of the mermaid's real existence.

But when he knew something else, he figured it out.

For example, the merfolk have mastered the rules of the universe that can change the shape of space - they use it to hide their figure.

For example, a small number of humans are aware of the existence of mermaids......

Like what......

What humans don't know much about is the deep sea than about space. This is a very confusing thing. After all, the sea is so close to us. However, the deep sea belongs to the sea, but it is not only the sea.

It's so mysterious in the ocean. Even the few humans who know about the existence of the merfolk don't know much about the deep sea. For the existence of the mermaid race, it is only a little more than the mermaid legend.

If you have to find out, then the Viking warriors of the Viking Age may know better.

……

……

After coming out of the Arctic Ocean, Taeyang discovers a strange thing. As long as he threw himself into the next plan, its head could be exposed.

And as long as he is attentive enough, he can even expose half of his upper body to the surface.

Mermaid girls can leap out of the water like dolphins. Every time she stopped, the girl would happily jump out of the water, and every time she jumped out of the water, she would leave a beautiful shadow in the air.

Once she inadvertently jumped out of the water because she was so happy, she saw a smile on Taeyang's face, a beautiful sight she had never seen before. In order to see that smile, the mermaid girl will spend a lot of effort to do some beautiful but difficult movements.

But this time, the mermaid girl didn't do it.

Because the solemnity on Taeyang's body had been passed on to her at the first time.

……

……

From above, or from a distance. You will be surprised to find that there are two people in the middle of the ocean. There are no ships within a few dozen nautical miles around...... This is a pair of people who were shipwrecked and drifting on the sea.

It's a pity that no one is watching. And even if someone looks at it, it may not be able to see it.

The North Atlantic Ocean already has the presence of mermaid tribes in the waters of Scandinavia. But Taeyang chose to go further afield to Iceland.

At this stage, distance is no longer an issue for him to consider. The reason why he chose this place was to make him feel a little doubtful in his heart.

Taeyang's head sticks out of the water first. He saw the outline of the island in front of the horizon. If you close your eyes, you can feel the breath of a human being.

Cities, buildings, cars, shops......

It's something that you can't miss.

However, at this time, no matter how much you think about it, it will not help in the slightest.

In the eyes of the mermaid girl Xiaoyu, the strange island only has a vague outline. I only know that it is very big, because the horizon can only be seen when you turn your head.

"Prepare for a deep dive!"

Taeyang closed his eyes, and after being silent for a while, he said.

Usually it is not far from the picture, because then the resistance of the sea water will be less. Deep diving, on the other hand, means that you are going to another big tribe of mermaid branches.

After setting the goal, Taeyang's entire body is like an autopilot spaceship, and in the process of deep diving, he no longer needs to see with his eyes.

He could then focus on observing the megacity.

Taeyang was once again shocked by the magic of nature.

……

……

At the southern end of the North Atlantic basin, a huge peak rises above the basin. The summit of the summit is the part of Iceland that is exposed to the sea, and occupies less than a tenth of its height.

Everything else is in the ocean. Because of the barrier of the sea, it no longer belongs to the human world.

It was a world that was extremely alien to humans.
