Chapter Forty-Eight: The Mermaid Princess Avril
Adam, who returned to the cave, took out some food from the storage space and looked at what he had stocked, because of Xia Lulu's presence, food was enough for him for a month, and enough water for drinking.
"I don't know where Xia Lulu went, but with her ability, there shouldn't be any problem." Thinking of this, Adam moved his body and headed into the sea again.
With the blessing of the True Eye, Adam's visibility in the sea was still good, and after finding a direction that he had not been to, Adam began to swim forward.
After swimming for a while, Adam didn't see anything special, and when he turned back, two figures, one white and one black, were chasing quickly.
Adam fixed his eyes on the two creatures with female upper bodies and fishtail lower bodies.
The black-skinned one was being chased by the white-skinned one, and through the translator Adam Ronald overheard their conversation.
"Stop, Avier, give me back my singing crystal!" The mermaid said loudly.
"You just wait to lose the singing crystal, lose the favor of your father and the favor of the prince!"
Hearing this, Adam probably guessed the truth of the matter, so he quietly approached the two mermaids, and when the black mermaid passed by him, Adam quickly grabbed her tail.
The black mermaid was taken aback, and when she turned back to see Adam holding her, she was even more surprised.
"You're human?" The black mermaid was stunned, and the white mermaid finally caught up.
She opened her arms and hugged the black mermaid tightly: "Give me back the crystal!" The prince of Atlantis is coming, and you don't want to miss this opportunity. ”
As she finished speaking, she noticed that the black mermaid was staring blankly at her tail fin, and she knew why she was able to catch up with Avril, who was known for her speed.
Although he wears a strange pair of glasses, he still can't hide his handsome face, even among the fish-people who are rich in handsome men and beautiful women.
When she looked down at Adam's legs, she asked the same question.
Adam had no way to speak, only to gesture.
The two merfolk followed Adam's guide back to the cave where he was.
After a few breaths, Adam said to the merfolk, "Now you can get your stuff back." ”
The white mermaid reacted at this time, and she quickly reached into the shell on the black mermaid's chest, and after a while, she took out a brilliant crystal the size of a fingernail.
She quickly put it in her mouth, and a song echoed throughout the cavern.
The black mermaid didn't pay attention to her movements, just stared at Adam blankly.
The merfolk reclaimed their belongings, thanked Adam, and turned away.
Seeing that the black mermaid was still in a daze, Adam said to her: "Although I am a little sorry for you, it is indeed wrong to take other people's things." ”
But Adam didn't expect that after he said this, the other party actually cried loudly, and the tears fell on her chest and turned into pearls and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Adam did not sympathize with her, but just let herself cry, and Adam took out his paintbrush and began to record the situation around the cave.
The black mermaid cried for a while and regained her composure, and Adam glanced at her and saw that the other man had raised his head and slammed into the stone wall.
Startled, Adam hurriedly rushed over with the nine-star step.
Seeing that it was too late to stop, Adam could only stop his arm in front of the mermaid's head.
There was a pain in his arm, but fortunately he was able to save it, and Adam quickly shouted, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Let me die! I'm not good at singing, everyone doesn't like me, and I don't even look as good as a human man, what's the point of me living! Tears welled up in her eyes again.
"Actually, I think you're pretty good-looking." Adam rubbed his aching arm, suspecting that his bones might have cracked.
"I don't need you to comfort me! I am the only one in the entire Fish-Man Kingdom with this skin color, and even my father is reluctant to let me go out on the day when the Prince of Atlantis comes on a blind date, for fear that I will affect the appearance of the country! ”
Avril said fiercely to Adam, "My ugliness is already a fact! You beauties don't understand at all! ”
"I'm telling the truth, you wait a minute." Adam sat down on the floor, opened a new piece of paper, and quickly sketched it out.
Soon he finished his painting, placed it in front of Avril and asked her, "Do you think this man is beautiful?" ”
Avril looked at the beautiful woman in the painting, her delicate facial features and large brown wavy hair, combined with her fair skin, all made Avril feel even more ugly.
"What are you trying to illustrate?" Her tone cooled, a feeling she knew all too well, a humiliation that had been made to her.
"Wait a minute." Adam picked up the painting and fiddled with it a few more times, and then said to her, "Do you think she's still beautiful?" ”
Avril looked at the familiar dark-skinned woman in the picture, she was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is this ...... Isn't this me? ”
"That's right, I just drew your appearance directly at the beginning, even if the skin color changes and the facial features can't be changed, so you are indeed beautiful."
Adam's words smashed Avril's locked heart like a hammer.
Still, she screamed, "So what! I'm still an outlier, I can't sing, I can't go on blind dates, it's the same for me, I'm just a freak who ruins the reputation of the country! ”
Adam thought for a moment, then said to her, "Well, I can help you, but I also have one condition. ”
Seeing Avril's puzzled look, Adam explained, "Don't you just want to be able to participate in the blind date? It's easy to do, and I can make it easy for you to be the center of attention on a blind date. ”
"It's just that you have to complete my conditions in the future, that is, to help me find Canglong's eggs, and there are five, of course, you just need to give me a place, and I can go by myself if there is danger."
"Just such a simple condition?" Avril was a little incredible.
"That's right, I'm a human being, and I have very limited time to move underwater, so with your help I can reach my goal faster, how about it, do you want to promise me?"
"I promise you! But I also have my own conditions. ”
"You say."
"I don't want to be in the spotlight with the way I am now! You can make me the same skin color as Ariel, and I'll promise to help you find the dragon egg. ”
"Why? Don't you want to go on a blind date? ”
"You don't have to worry about this, I have my ideas."
Adam thought for a moment that it was not impossible to use his own ability, so he agreed to her request
