Chapter 313: Poseidon's Mount
"No!" the merfolk let out a scream, so sharp that it made a spiral ripple in the water. The high dive had already quickly turned the horse's head, and the hand holding the reins was also grasping Jiajia's clothes. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the mermaid still standing stupidly in the path of the black monster's advance, and he had to pull her back.
"Run!" shouted the high diver.
The silver horse immediately spread its hooves and ran up the steps. The mermaid was dragged by a high dive and galloped through the water, like a flying flag. She opened her mouth to say something, and then she saw the blacksmith shop crashing into it like a behemoth.
The limbs of the blacksmith had shrunk up, and the whole blacksmith was as black as a huge mine full of protrusions.
The merfolk began to scream again, and High Dive let go so he could avoid her terrifying sound waves. The merfolk tumbled into the water curtain on the side of the stairs. The High Diver rushed from under the blacksmith with a silver horse.
"Over to you, Regin!" As he staggered by, Gao Qian saw Regin's excited face in the cab, and he waved his hand at Gao Qian, pointing behind him, motioning for him to hide. Then the propeller at the back of the smithy spun at an accelerated turn, and a huge stream of water gushed out in all directions.
Silver Horse was swept up by the sudden flow of water and almost fell down the steps, staggering a few steps before he could steady.
Then there was another loud bang, as dull as a mine exploding underwater. High Diver hurriedly steered his horse to dodge the rushing current. When he looked back, the blacksmith had collided head-on with the black whirlpool, and the huge blacksmith slammed into a slam, and the propeller went out of flames and stopped on the steps.
The black whirlpool tumbled into the water curtain on the side of the steps, and Gao Dive saw the merfolk scattering in panic. However, the merfolk did not flee far, but after escaping a few tens of meters, they stopped there again and continued to watch with great interest.
Gao Tie stared intently at the monster. The black monster clumped together, and whisker-like tentacles could be seen fluttering on its sides. It has a long fishtail-like tail that is tumbling hard at the moment, stretching its tail out of its knotted state.
It's just that the end of its tail is not the usual fin, but like three razors tied together, and it flashes with a cold light.
Then its two front legs stretched out, and the slender legs ended in two scale-like black hooves. When it finally unfolded its body and hissed when it raised its head, Gao Dien's eyes widened in surprise.
The creature still had a horse's head, two long tentacles floating from the corners of its mouth, and its horsehair looked like tentacles, twisting and curling in the water.
Its body is covered in black scales, and it appears to be wearing a pair of black chain mail. It has huge, protruding eyes that flicker on and off like neon signs.
In a way, it's a beautiful dark horse, at least for the first half. And from the horse's belly, it began to turn into a fish.
What is this? Horsefish, or seahorses?
Regin's blacksmith didn't know if it had collided with a seahorse and malfunctioned, and the propeller behind it started for two seconds before it stopped again. Gao Qian looked at the half-horse, half-fish creature, and staggered towards him again, Gao Qian quickly turned the horse's head, grabbed Jiajia and ran again.
It's just that the creature is much faster in the water than the silver horse. Almost in the blink of an eye, it rushed ahead of the high dive, blocking the way of the high dive. Like a horse with its front hooves, it stares condescendingly at the high dive.
No, to be precise, it's staring at the high-diving Silver Horse. Then it began to dance around the silver horse. The long black fishtail churned out beautiful whirlpools, and it stirred so fast that one splash had not disappeared before another reappeared. It looked like it was dancing on a swirling backdrop, and its sturdy and graceful posture made Gao Qian feel like it really looked like a black horse, if you ignored the long, weird fishtail behind him.
Gao Qian looked at it for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and patted the silver horse's mane and said, "I remember that you are a male?"
Silver Horse nodded.
The high dive wanted to see if the black fish horse was male or female. However, like fish, its genital pores are covered with scales, which cannot be judged by high diving.
Gao Qian looked around, the mermaid on the other side of the water curtain crowded together to watch, and the melon eaters chattered to each other, Gao Qian struggled to find the blue-haired mermaid, he glared at her and beckoned to her.
The blue-haired mermaid reluctantly crossed the curtain of water, and it seemed that the pure water here made her uncomfortable, and she rubbed her arms as she swam closer to the high dive.
"That's Camos. It's courting your silver horse. β
"So, it's female?"
"No, CamΓ΅es is male, it is the mount of Poseidon, the god of the sea. It was accidentally trapped here when the Three Realms merged, and for so many years, it had been trying to find a mate. But there are only fish and no horses in this lake. Your horse is probably the only creature he's seen in years that looks more like it. β
There are some black lines on Gao Qian's forehead: "Are you saying that because it can't find other people of the same kind, you plan to come out?"
The mermaid spread her hands.
"I suggest you give it your silver horse, Camos is a god's mount, and even if he is not a true god, he is powerful. And your horse is just a pretty horse anyway. β
I don't know if Silver Horse understood what the mermaid said, he jumped up excitedly, and kept stepping on his hooves in place, and Gao Qian hurriedly comforted it: "Don't be afraid, I won't give you to this pervert." β
What's more, Gao Qian thought to himself, I may not be able to beat the sea god Poseidon, but the god's mount, hehe.
At this time, Jiajia, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up, she rubbed her eyes, looked at Gao Qian, looked around, and said vaguely: "Am I still dreaming? Big brother, where is this?"
Gao Qian touched Jiajia's hair funny, there was such a big movement just now, this little girl can still sleep, and he also admires her sleeping skills: "I think this is a huge seahorse." β
"Oh," Jiajia swayed sleepily, as if trying to find a comfortable spot in Gao Di's arms to continue sleeping. Gao Qian was worried that she would sleep too soundly and accidentally fall down after a while, so he wanted her to wake up: "Jiajia, this seahorse wants to rob the big brother's silver horse." β
Jiajia yawned widely, squinted and said: "Grab the big brother's horse, that's the bad horse, since it's a bad horse......" Jiajia yawned again, and with her yawn, she recited a vague incantation.
The black horse suddenly let out a surprised neigh, as if it had been struck by a strong force, and rolled backwards, and then a column of water swept up from the bottom of the lake, and the black horse hurriedly fled, but the column of water seemed to be alive chasing it......
Gao Qian looked at Jiajia in surprise.
Jiajia had already leaned into the crook of his arm, found an extremely comfortable position, and continued to sleep.
