Chapter 544: Mermaid
The mermaid, a legendary sea creature, has been recognized as a curse by countless sailors and pirates.
When the sea is stormy, the storm is fierce, and the sky is dark, the mermaid rises to the surface, clings to the reef, and uses her cold and poignant appearance and mournful singing voice to confuse passing sailors and pirates, distract them, lose their way, and sink to the bottom of the sea.
Among the pirates and sailors, there are many legends about mermaids, and in these legends, the mermaids are mostly women, and they are beautiful and beautiful, and their songs are like roses with spikes.
Andy had previously obtained a multicolored shell in another mural on the Black Fantasy, and according to the information obtained, the shell was a token of the merfolk.
In the legend of the mermaids, they were originally fishermen by the sea, but because they offended the gods, they were cursed by the gods, and they grew fish tails and fins, and they could never land on land.
Among the mermaids, there are always some merfolk who feel unfair because they were born with a curse, so they rely on the mermaid's unique singing voice and beauty to attract sailors and pirates.
And that multicolored shell is the key item for the merfolk to break the curse, and all humans who get the shell and return the shell to the merfolk will become the merfolk forever friends.
"Mermaid...... You can only shed tears once in your life. ”
Andy muttered, and he reached into his arms, took the multicolored shell, and frowned again.
"But Anna's situation didn't last long, and we don't seem to know the exact location of the mermaid, I only know that my father once discovered the mermaid cave under an island in the Rakshasa Sea...... But the Rakshasa Sea is too far from here. ”
The mermaid is also a branch of the mermaid family, commonly found in the East, and the mermaid is different in that in addition to the tail of the mermaid, its ears are also the appearance of the fins, and the mermaid is ferocious, and the strength of each merman is very strong.
"No, the mermaid is not good, the mermaid is not like a mermaid, although its tears are precious, but it is not like a mermaid who can only shed tears once in his life. ”
Sharks often emerge from the sea in the dead of night and weep at the bright moon, and their tears will turn into pearls in the moonlight and be collected by the mermen.
Shark tears are a very rare alchemy material, but there are some in the East.
"I know! Andy, I know where there are mermaids!"
Margaret, who was at the table, heard Andy and Olivia's exchange, and she put the crystal ball in her hand on the table and ran over excitedly.
"How do you know?"
Andy asked excitedly with a look of surprise on his face.
"Andler said, in Viking Harbor, Sister Boomer's tavern, the time Andler was injured, he told Sister Boomer a story, I overheard!"
Margaret said with a smile, Andy looked at her with some surprise, even Olivia was very surprised, her original intention was to let Andy try to try his luck at the location of the mermaid in the legend of the sailors, but she didn't expect that Margaret would be able to know the location of the mermaid group clearly.
"Andler told Sister Boomer that Captain Zach was a very handsome pirate when he was young, and he heard the mermaid's song when he set out for the Endless Sea......"
At that time, Zack was still a young pirate, and he was not yet the captain of the Goddess of Despair, and Zack only got the contract of the Goddess of Despair in the treasure land of the former pirate king Payne after he failed to compete with Pixar for the Storm Pirate King, and at the cost of one eye, he got a medium that could borrow the power of the Goddess of Despair.
So, at that time, Zach was just an ordinary pirate, like the original Andy, because he longed for the mystery and grandeur of the sea, and chose to become a pirate.
Young Zach follows the captain to the Endless Sea, where he buys three pieces of the Heart of the Ocean for a large amount of gold at an alchemist shop in a pirate harbor in the Crystal Sea.
The captain fuses the biggest of them all, hoping to hunt down a sea beast and make a pact with it.
And the captain promised that the two pirates who contributed the most in the course of this hunt would be rewarded with the Heart of the Ocean fragments.
However, before they could enter the Endless Sea, an unprecedented storm broke out in the Stormwind Sea, and the wind swept up huge waves, and the pirate ship was like a leaf, floating between the churning waves.
Under the excellent control of the old captain, the pirate ship rushed out of the storm and entered the misty islands of the endless sea, and at this time, before the crew could recover from the storm, they heard a beautiful song in their ears.
That's the mermaid's song!
All the crew, including the captain, were attracted by the song, and the captain steered the boat in the direction from which the song came, and when the fog lifted, dozens of mermaids were seen lying on the reef singing.
With long blond or blue hair, turquoise eyes, and seductive figures, they loom in the hazy pale white mist, and almost all pirates are attracted to the beautiful mermaids.
The mermaids swam under the pirate ship, and they poked their heads out of the water and gazed affectionately at the pirates on board.
......
Margaret exaggerated the story of Zach, with gestures and movements, which is somewhat cute.
"And then?"
Olivia already had the answer in her mind, and she knew that most of the pirates on the ship would be tempted by mermaids, jumping into the sea, and being pulled closer to the abyss by mermaids.
And then ...... According to Andreu, except for Captain Zack, the other pirates, including the captain, all died in the sea, only Zack, and Zach met a kind mermaid, or rather, a simple and kind mermaid. ”
"The beautiful mermaid fell in love with the handsome Captain Zack, she took Captain Zack and went to a small island, what happened later, Andler doesn't know, but it is said that the mermaid was found and taken away by his people, and before leaving, the mermaid left Zack a conch with her voice, and Captain Zack has never had any women since then......"
Margaret spoke, her tone lowered, her eyes filled with emotion and envy.
Andy was silent for a moment and glanced at Anna lying on the bed.
"So, that mermaid race is in the Misty Islands of the Endless Sea?"
That's right, Andler said, and when Zach became captain, he used the island he and the mermaid had been to as a treasure trove for the Goddess of Despair. ”
"The treasure of the goddess of despair!?"
