Chapter 640: Meaning
"I don't know. He's supposed to be a fish-man too, but he has a pair of feet......"
Celestia's eyes changed instantly.
"Really? Are you sure you're right?"
"Hmm. What's wrong with you?"
Slark is still alive. He escaped from the sunken prison.
No way...... How could it be possible to escape from that place? No one had ever escaped! The Sunken Prison was a place where the worst criminals of the Sea Race were imprisoned, and in addition to life imprisonment, they had to survive under the hands of many criminals and guards, which was more difficult than ordinary people could imagine.
However, in Slices's mind, Slark was not a very evil man. Although the law of the king was violated, the most cruel punishment should be carried out according to the regulations, that is, to be thrown into a sunken prison. However, the Slark murderer was for her.
Bad character is also an aspect, and after that, Silkh even regretted why he took the position of head of the guard. If she hadn't been the new one, there wouldn't have been so many people who came out against it, and there wouldn't have been anything that followed.
She is a Naga Siren, an offshoot of the Fish-Man clan. Her mother had warned her early on that Naga should not sing lightly, and should only sing when they encounter enemies who threaten them, otherwise they will be considered by others to have no basic dignity. But Slices often secretly expressed her emotions in song.
As her mother put it, stereotypes made others disdain her. She didn't care, she just lost the friendliness of some people, and she wouldn't die. If there is no freedom in singing, what is the meaning of being born?
Later, she had her first appreciator, the only one to this day.
Slark did not hesitate to praise her singing, and Slices was amused, and asked with some embards who taught you, and Slark said that he was a bard by the sea, and one day he sent a fish to treat him, which frightened the poet.
Like what:
- Listening to you sing, I always want to sleep.
- Am I singing too boring?
- No, it's like your singing is like a cradle with candy.
Slark was an outcast of his parents, and when he saw that he had grown a pair of feet, looked like a monster, and was born without even giving him a name, he was expelled from the school. He became independent very quickly, and after a few days he learned to find food on his own, and he stole a lingua franca dictionary to study secretly, so that when he scolded humans in the future, he could speak more smoothly. When I grew up, I often went to the sea to have fun, and I had the idea of fighting humans and ships. One day he and a fish-man gangster fought over who found the prey first, but they were both put together by humans, dragged back to the sea with injuries, and the two actually became friends, and the gangster patted his chest: We will be brothers from now on.
That man was Slarda. Slark chose a name for himself based on the name of his brother he had just recognized, and a syllable that he remembered when he remembered the bard. Whatever the dictionary meaning of this combination is, it just sounds good to the ear.
Time flies, and at this age, they gradually have some ignorant understanding of their feelings, but they are helpless. The rare bloodline of the Naga Siren is inevitably born female, a nobleman among the merfolk, and only handsome male mermaids who also have human faces are allowed to marry them. Srichis has an unspeakable secret, she must obey the rules of the clan, but she is afraid that someone will be disappointed by this. Slark also knows this clearly, but he doesn't care, he is already a monster anyway, and ordinary girls will not be interested in him, as long as he can be a fan of Silkis for the rest of his life, it is enough.
Despite the inevitable arrival of some sad endings, Slices intends to put those aside for a while, because Slark's appearance, singing, finally has meaning. Her life was also given meaning.
The beauty is ended by a sudden catastrophe, and nothing can escape fate. Slark is still alive, and then? He's in the Dire, the Fish-Man Legion, and he must have been instructed to do so by Slarda when he came to the South Coast last night. Silkys has been completely isolated by her people.
After pondering for a long time, Slices could not calm down, a fact that she could not accept. She began to doubt the meaning of life again.
For the sake of loyalty and belief in the ruins, he has been a pawn of Tianhui all his life, and has become an enemy with the people who have lived with him for hundreds of years?
"I'm going on a trip to the Gloomy Isles. Celestia's voice trembled, she was determined.
What about the Dire? What about the Holy Grail? She was a sinner, an exile, and if she could pay for her sins, she would never want to live in agony again.
"Are you crazy?!" the Morphling lifted her cheek vigorously, Slices had long been accustomed to its docility, and the sudden abnormality made her look shocked, as if she had read her mind thoroughly.
Srisis knew that the Morphlings didn't want her dead. The Gloomy Isles have now become the territory of the Fish-Man Legion, and if you go alone, you will definitely have no return.
"Don't worry, they're my people, and I know how to deal with them best. Silks smiled and said, "I just want to see someone, and I won't be stupid enough to die." ”
"Do you know what your past means to your people? Strength, can greatly increase your own strength. Kill you, and they will become stronger, and we will only be harder to deal with them. Don't do anything stupid, Shrees. ”
"Don't worry about me, okay, if they really have murderous intentions towards me, I'll put them to sleep with my singing voice and run away on my own. I had to go. ”
"Since you're going, I'll accompany you. ”
Silky was a little difficult to do for a while, so that the possibility of achieving the goal was much lower, and it was possible that it would follow suit. That wasn't what she wanted to happen.
But seeing that she didn't agree, she couldn't even step out of the door.
In this way, only one step at a time can be taken.
The Morphlings swept Slices in the waves, opened the window and rushed out. The window is close to the sea, and the next second they all pounce into the sea, adjust their posture, and move in one direction again.
"Wait for me here, if I don't come back after dark," they stopped at a reef where Slark and the Morphlings had fought yesterday. Silky thought for a long time and said, "You ...... Go back and avenge me another day." ”
"I can feel your breath of life, and once the situation deteriorates, I will let the tide rise, flooding their habitat and making them shiver in the cold!"
"And what should I do?" said Slices, jokingly.
"I'll make the water passing through you a little warmer. ”
Slicis smiled lightly and was about to leave when the morphling grabbed her, "Wait, sing a song for me." ”
-
Two miracles occurred in just one day. After learning that Slark had escaped from the sunken prison, the fishmen of the Gloomy Isles watched as Slices snaked towards them from the shore. Seeing that the former exiles had become the opposing camp, he wanted to make a big fight, but was stopped by Slarda.
"You're back just in time. Slarda's words were crisp and clear, and he held back the words that Silkys had been brewing for a long time.
"Slark, come out and meet your old man!"
Among the crowd of fish, a cautious tiptoeing figure came out and looked up at her.
A meaningful reunion.
Unable to control herself, Sriches had just taken a step forward when Slarda stopped in front of Slark and said, "Holy Grail, Slark has helped you get it back." Now I'm going to give you a chance to mend your ways......"
"What?" Celestis's eyes widened, "The Holy Grail has been recovered?"
"Don't bother me, you can ask for it yourself! We are affected by the contract, and the use of the Hallows will cause damage to life. Slark also said that he insisted on giving you the Holy Grail, then I will fulfill you, you take the Holy Grail, and work with us to get rid of the Iron Sail Fleet, and I will set you free in the future, and the Fish-Man Legion will not hurt you again. But if you refuse, don't even think about going back from here today. ”
Slices glanced at Slark in disbelief, and Slark hurriedly looked for something else.
He's got the Holy Grail back? Oh my God...... The forces in the South China Sea are not so easy to deal with!
"You...... Will you forgive me?"
"As soon as Slark has paid you back, the Holy Grail has been lost and recovered, and there is no point in pursuing it. I'm not a tyrant, I have the principles to rule the Fish-Man legions. So, those allies of your Radiant, or us, which side are you on?"
"Does it have to be like this, Slarda?"
There was an immediate commotion among the fish-man soldiers, who had always regarded Stiffis as an enemy from the first sight of her until now, and would do whatever it took to attack and eliminate the traitor at the slightest chance from their commander.
A dark shadow flashed in front of Silkys, and the fish people immediately settled down again. "Whoever dares to touch her, I'll let her die!" Slark stared at each fishman.
Escaping from the sunken prison and snatching back the Holy Grail, such a monster, no one wants to mess with it.
Looking at the people who stopped in front of her, she couldn't imagine what would happen if she refused to obey. After a quick thought, Slices finally said, "Well, I promise you. ”
Slardar made a gesture for the fish-men soldiers to retreat until they were out of sight.
Slark handed the sack containing the chalice to Sluris, and left silently, Sluscis remembered something, and just as he wanted to ask, Slarda had already walked in front of him.
"We're all glad you made a wise choice. I, Slarda, do what I say, and once we have cleared the Iron Sail Fleet, I will set you free. ”
Slices didn't say a word, and she didn't look directly into Slarda's eyes, which were full of cruelty and coldness. Even if they were remembered for their old love, Radiant was Radiant, Dire was Dire, and Celestial could never be with them. Yes, this time, she will neither betray Radiant nor harm her people.
Slardar swam deeper into the island, and Srichis glanced at the bag in his hand, and some thoughts were already brewing in his mind.
