Chapter 366: Camp

After a brief interrogation, Chen Mu and the monkey followed the seven-person team back to the camp.

The leading blonde mermaid is named Dorothy, Chen Mu said his real name very easily, anyway, this name is very ordinary, even in the wasteland, there are many people with the same name and surname, and there is no need to use a pseudonym at all.

The monkey naturally doesn't need to speak, it and Chen Mu can use the system interface to communicate, and they will appear as Chen Mu's pet to the outside world, and it will not arouse the suspicion of the mermaid clan.

It is said to be a campsite, but it is actually a small coral reef, and the bits and pieces are not even small islands, and there are no buildings.

Chen Mu has heard that the habitat of the mermaid clan is under the seabed, and if you think about it, people are genuine marine intelligent creatures, and it is normal to live on the bottom of the sea.

He was also relatively frank about Dorothy, bluntly saying that he was indeed from the north, and he managed to escape from the "Cape of Doom", and passed through the "Skull Coast" before coming to the "Golden Sea", with the goal of going to the human settlement of the "East China Sea".

These words certainly can't all be true, but they are not all false, Chen Mu did leave from the "Doom Corner", and also came from the direction of the "Skull Coast".

It's just that many sensitive questions have been avoided by him, such as "Rainbow Hell", such as "Mechanical Maze", and then such as the conflict between himself and the ghost clan and the army of the backer king, of course, these things don't need to be mentioned, anyway, Dorothy didn't ask.

Chen Mu could feel that what the other party was most concerned about was the matter of the "Doom Corner", especially the information related to the wreaking havoc of the sea monster, and she asked several times very carefully.

Chen Mu didn't need to hide this matter, he told it generously, he did witness the big incident of the sea monster's raid on the lighthouse, and he didn't need to lie at all, just tell the truth.

Sure enough, Dorothy obviously knew some information, and as soon as Chen Mu told the corroboration, she knew that he was not lying in this regard, and there was no need for this.

The reason is also very simple, with the urine nature of the mermaid race, there has never been a history of collusion with humans, which fundamentally excludes the hostility between humans and mermaids.

Even if it is true, there are many human raiders who are bold and want money and death, and from time to time they attack the mermaids, and even capture mermaids and sell them inland.

But in the fundamental overall situation, humans are still in the same camp as the merfolk race, fighting together against the vicious merfolk race, at least in the general direction.

Moreover, the most powerful human forces occupying the East China Sea are the "Freedom Front", whose roots are anarchist utopias that fantasize about the unity of the world, and they have no special stance on the mermaids, and the relationship between the two sides has generally remained relatively friendly.

Therefore, Dorothy did not have any special hostility towards a northern refugee of unknown origin like Chen Mu, and of course, there would be no special goodwill behavior.

She also politely "invited" Chen Mu to the camp to be a "guest", and Chen Mu naturally understood that refusal was not a good choice.

No matter what the other party's purpose is, as the nominal and substantive dual masters of the "Golden Sea", the merfolk have the qualifications and power to require themselves to cooperate with the investigation.

In Chen Mu's opinion, as long as he doesn't turn his face on the spot, it's easy to say, and according to his and the monkey's speculation, with the mermaid clan's usual force field and practices, it is unlikely that they will kill human "refugees" inexplicably.

But considering the situation in the "Doom Corner" and the generational hatred between the merfolk and the fish-people, the other party will definitely try their best to gather the latest information over there.

Then for a "refugee" like himself who fled from the north, the other party will definitely conduct several rounds of investigation, and it will be enough to cooperate, and when he asks about the affairs of the north, he should let himself go, and maybe he can get a chart here, and even hitchhike to the "East China Sea" is not impossible.

Therefore, Chen Mu followed Dorothy and them very cooperatively, and when they arrived at this coral reef, Dorothy took out a light blue bead, the size of a fist, and handed it over: "This is a 'water bead', I gave it to you, and the way to use it is like this......"

She explained to Chen Mu in detail, because Chen Mu claimed that it was the first time he came here, and he had never even been to sea before, but the "Doom Corner" was suddenly in trouble, and he had no choice but to go to sea to escape, and he came here all the way.

Chen Mu has also heard of this "water bead", and knows that this thing is a good thing for home travel here, and after activation, it can form a transparent bubble around the body, isolate seawater and pressure, and can also pump oxygen in the water, so that humans can move underwater for a long time.

The mermaid clan itself does not need to use this thing, they have even consciously used the pressure on the bottom of the sea to temper their bodies since they were young, so the mermaid clan does not have an outlier that is not fit, it is the perfect combination of genetics and acquired exercise, and it is also part of the combat effectiveness.

Including mermaids like Dorothy, don't look at their stature is much smaller than their male counterparts, but their explosive power is still super strong, it is said that adult mermaids can smash human heads with a single punch, and can kill elephants with a little force.

If it is converted to the standard of combat power on the human side, basically the adult mermaid clan will not have the existence of combat power lower than that of innate martial artists.

This is also the reason why the overall number of merfolk cannot be compared with human beings at all, even if it is only the number of humans in the "East China Sea" area, it has already thrown out the entire mermaid clan a few streets.

But for so many years, the merfolk have still been able to firmly occupy the rich "golden sea", survive and reproduce strongly in the gap between the merfolk and humans, not being extinct by the mermaids, nor becoming a vassal of humans, but a dignified existence as allies.

Of course, the merfolk often live in the deep sea, and if the underage individuals want to come out for activities, they still need to use things like "water beads".

And the human body, even an adult, generally can't withstand the huge pressure on the bottom of the sea, that is, an innate martial artist like Chen Mu, although the physical strength may be enough, but rashly going deep into the bottom of the sea, it is still likely to have an uncomfortable reaction, so it is best to use "water beads".

The value of this thing is that the bigger the head, the more valuable it is, because the larger the "water droplets", the more tough the bubbles it inspires, the greater the pressure on the bottom of the sea, and the longer it lasts.

And there's another feature.,This thing needs to be charged.,The specific operation method is the secret of the merfolk race.,Or the core kind.,Anyway, I haven't heard of any human being who can charge this thing.。
