Chapter 17: The Dragon's Egg

"Don't worry, Lynn and Il, do you want to see the mermaid up close?" Dario said with a smug expression, "A lot of the materials on this fleet are funded by my father, and the auction is also jointly funded by my father and his friends, so I can take you in to see it up close, maybe you can still touch the mermaid, you must know that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and when it is bought by the buyer, it is estimated that we will never see such a precious mermaid in this life."

Hearing him say this, Il was a little moved, it turned out that Dario's family still had this relationship, so there was no need to use it in vain, but Lin was a little hesitant.

They organized a group to walk around the downtown area for a day, and in the evening, everyone dispersed, and the display team also completed today's task. Dario takes Il and Lynn to the auction house where the goods are stored.

"Master Dario, you're here, you're also here to see the mermaid?" The janitor was obviously familiar with Dario, but judging from him, it seemed that there were quite a few people who came to see the merfolk tonight.

The gatekeeper led them to a large room with a pool in the center, sealed with an iron fence, in which the mermaid struck the fence over and over again. There was a group of people around the pool, and seeing that there was a man in the middle who was dressed in aristocratic clothes, Dario snorted, not liking the group.

Il, who had seen a lot of nobles, naturally walked over to greet him, which was the 'courtesy' that his stepfather had taught him since he was a child.

"Hello, you ask you which nobleman you are from?" The middle-aged man led by Il saw the standard etiquette of Il, and saw him wearing a mage robe, knowing that Il must be a noble child sent from somewhere else to Black Dragon City as an apprentice.

"I am Ilcoror Crowber, son of Viscount Clauber from the Intraroyal City. May I ask what your Excellency is?"

"Fortunately, I will be fortunate to meet below, and below is Baron Gerdo of Black Dragon City. Baron Gerdo complimented him when he heard that Il was from the royal city and that the title of the Clauber family was one level higher than his own. "Are you interested in this mermaid too? Why don't I contact the steward here and ask him to open the cage for you to see up close?"

"Thank you for your kindness, I'm just curious, not too interested, I wonder if Your Excellency the Baron is interested in these strange creatures?" Il asked with a smile.

Baron Gerdo was a little embarrassed, "I can't hide it, I'm here to see if this rumor is true for an adult with a higher rank than me, it's the adult who is interested in mermaids, and I don't have so much money to support this hobby." ”

Ilhaha smiled, "Then I won't bother His Excellency the Baron, I still have friends waiting for me, take my leave." ”

Back to Dario and Lynn, they had been standing there watching the merfolk for a while. Seeing that Ilr finally returned, Dario's dissatisfied expression was all written on his face, "Il, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person." ”

Il looked at him strangely, "What kind of person am I?"

Dario turned his head without saying a word, not wanting to look at Il, but Lynn didn't pay attention to them, and kept looking at the mermaid in the water, and the mermaid was still hitting the iron railing, and again, and again, ......and again, Bang!...... Bang!

The splash splashed on Lin's body, the smell of fish was very strong, and there were traces of blood on its body, and a faint blood fainted in the water, "I said, is this mermaid going to commit suicide?"

"What?" Hearing Lynn's voice, Il saw the mermaid frantically hitting the railing, the group of people had already left, only Lin found that the mermaid's actions were getting more and more crazy, could the electric shocker in the bracelet come in handy?

"Hey, Dario, go call someone, this mermaid is going to die if you don't care about it!" Lin got up and raised her staff, and cast a spell to freeze the water to prevent it from continuing its crazy impact behavior, but unfortunately it continued to hit the ice, it let out a cry of pain, and the ice was shattered in an instant, and the ice fragments were scattered in the air.

Dario hurriedly called for the management guarding the door, and the mermaid seemed to be afraid of this management, and looked directly at the people who came by with his hand on the railing. Seeing that the man sprinkled something in the water, the mermaid instantly let out a piercing cry, and dived into the water and did not dare to get close to the surface of the water.

Il, curious, asked the caretaker how he did it, and he seemed to smell the scent of flowers.

The caretaker took out a handful of brown dead branches, with shriveled fruits on them, and said helplessly to Yir: "Drunken fish grass, they are afraid of this, and they dare not come up if they float on the water." We also learned about it recently, and we used to catch it and knock it out when it went crazy like this, and it bit a lot of our hands, so you have to be careful not to get too close to it. ”

Lin frowned, and the natural compassion of women forced her to ask this question, "Don't you need to treat it?"

But the manager said, "They are not people, they are tenacious." After saying that, he looked at the mermaid in disgust and left.

Lin had no choice, she looked at the mermaid who was potentially underwater, and she couldn't bear it inexplicably, so she could only give orders to Il and Dario to buy some medicine and gauze, and she was here to watch the mermaid herself.

Damn mermaid, what are you going to do if you hit the wall and commit suicide, I'm going to suffer from it, I haven't finished my lesson today, when will I become a great magician, Yir thought that women's compassion is trouble.

When they came back from buying medicine, the mermaid still didn't dare to surface, and Lin kept talking to it, trying to comfort it, and smiling with a friendly expression, the mermaid would only grin and make a threatening expression.

Lin chanted a spell, and the wind blew across the water, blowing all the drunken fish grass floating on the edge of the pool.

"Lynn, are you sure it can understand us? It only screams, and it's not human, so it can't speak. Dario watched from the sidelines.

Lynn shook her head, "But I think it should be understandable for my kindness." Do merfolk eat fish? Dario, go and ask if there are any fish here. ”

Dario went out for a while, and didn't know where to get a bucket of live fish, Lin let a small fish in first, the mermaid seemed to be hungry for a long time, it swung its tail, and almost instantly bit the fish, and the water rippled in the light. It looked up with the fish in its mouth, still warily looking at the man standing on the ground.

Looking at Lin against the iron railing, the railing is only a small distance from the water, this mermaid, our beautiful, kind and lovely human friends have already made such friendly gestures to you, why don't you appreciate it.

Seeing Lin's embarrassed appearance, Ilr had to go to the manager, and the manager said no, no, that thing was fierce, until Ilr gave the manager a handful of gold coins, and promised that there would be no problems, and showed the identity of the magician, the administrator reluctantly opened the lock.

The mermaid rushed out of the water with a flick of its tail, and then fell heavily on the stone floor, struggling to move its body forward, it crawled on the ground with both hands, little by little, the wound on the shoulder broke and flowed blood, pale red, very fishy. It looked around in despair, this is not its home, it wants to go back! Even if it climbs, it has to go back to its mother!

"Holy, I knew I couldn't trust you little ghosts!Hurry up and catch it!" The Administrator looked at the mermaid jumping out of the water in horror, he was just about to go out and call someone, Il's secretly used something against his waist, and the Administrator fell to the ground in an instant, the air seemed to be filled with the smell of urine, the product of this technology was really useful, Il's thought, but he would never have imagined that his casual attempt would cause a drastic change in his life!

The merfolk still crawled in the direction of the doorway with difficulty, and every time they exerted force, the pain in their shoulders implicated their whole body.

Lin tentatively reached out to lift its clothes, it didn't have any strength left to resist, and the clothes were full of swollen and unhealed wounds, and Il was shocked to see it, and couldn't help but gasp.

"How so?" said Il, too, who began to sympathize with the mermaid.

Lin sighed, "My dad often told me that it's not just humans who have feelings, he has seen how Warcraft fights desperately against poachers to protect their children, and he has also witnessed the beautiful love between elves and humans, in fact, it is the same life as us, and it should be respected." ”
