How to become a mermaid

Chapter 330 The Mystery of the Red Moon
Porch spent a long time trying to identify the blurry murals, but the idea ultimately failed because they were too worn.

The clues that were finally found were interrupted here, and Pochi was a little helpless at this time, and was so worried that he was spinning around in the sea.

"Oh, how annoying! Pochi hates using his brain the most!"

"Why did Pochi encounter such a troublesome thing, I feel dizzy!"

"What a broken place, I won't come here again after I find Moni!"

"Broken place!" Pochi slapped the stones lying on the ground with his hands, as if expressing his dissatisfaction in this way.

However, while hitting, he suddenly stopped.

As if he had discovered something, Pochi blinked and made a big circle around the group of stones.

He noticed that the placement of these stones was somewhat peculiar.

Seen from a height, these stones formed a pattern that resembled some kind of character, and it looked a little familiar, as if he had seen a similar pattern somewhere before.

"Hmm... Where on earth have I seen this thing? Why can't I remember it." Pochi folded his arms around his chest, tilted his head and thought hard at these stones.

He tried to search his memory, thinking about it, his head began to faint.

Mermaids are forgetful creatures, but this does not mean that their brain capacity is low. In fact, their small heads can store multiple memories and remember many things.

It's just that these memories are too fragmented, so that they can't find what they want for a while.

This feeling is like throwing objects into the deep sea.

The memory of yesterday, the memory of today, are all thrown into the sea of ​​memory, and then they sink like this, unable to be picked up...

As for when these memories will surface, it depends on fate.

"Gulu Gulu..." Thinking about it, Pochi suddenly turned his body over and floated in the water in an upside-down position with his tail up.

This is his own original way of thinking about problems.

After standing upside down for a long time, the blood will rush to the head, and then the brain will be more active, and thinking about things will be faster.

"Let's take a look at what happened first..."

"Money came to this sea area in order to find the new island, and then some strange things happened here. First, the electromagnetic confusion occurred, and then the crew began to have strange dreams. Then, when they were preparing to return, all of them Disappeared without a sound!"

"Wait...wait a minute!" Seemingly thinking of something suddenly, Pochi opened his eyes wide.

He turned his body over in an instant, pointed at the group of stones and said loudly: "I remember seeing this symbol somewhere!"

"island!!!"

"There are several islands in this sea area, and there are similar symbols on them! I saw it when I came here before!"

"As long as you find those islands, you'll have clues!" Thinking of this, Boqi's eyes lit up, and his hope suddenly rekindled.

"Daddy is here to find you, Moni!" Without further ado, Pochi flicked his tail and swam straight up.

The visibility on the bottom of the sea is not as high as that on the sea surface. He wants to return to the surface of the sea, and then use the teleportation method to move quickly, looking for islands in this sea area.

"Wow!" It took only about a minute for Pochi to emerge from the water.

After the water came out, he realized that it was already dusk, and the sun would set soon.

If the sky is completely dark, the sea will become pitch black. If you are unlucky and encounter weather without the moon, you will be even less able to see your fingers. Let alone looking for islands, it will be good if you don’t hit the reef.

In order to walk a longer distance before dark, Pochi chose the direction with his intuition, and began to teleport all the way to the right.

"Shh! Shh! Shh!" Pochi's figure flickered in the sea.

Every time he stayed for less than a second, he appeared in the next place.

But within a short period of one or two minutes, several nautical miles were advanced.

As long as you follow a line and go in the same direction, you can cross the entire sea area in the shortest time.

Even if the island is not where this line passes, it doesn't matter, running back and forth in the other direction a few times can always complete the investigation of this sea area.

Every teleport takes a little energy. In order to save himself energy, Pochi didn't use this method to help Moni find the island before, but now that Moni is missing, he doesn't pretend anymore.

"Shhhhhhh!" With the improvement of proficiency, Pochi's teleportation speed became faster and faster.

Every time he landed, he immediately appeared in the next place. His speed was so fast that his figure almost disappeared, leaving only a flickering blurred shadow on the sea.

With his running speed, even if he doesn't need to go back in time, he can still ride the waves in the sea.

Maybe it was a turn of events. Poch seemed lucky this time. He only found the island after exploring three or four hundred nautical miles forward.

Seeing a small black dot suddenly appearing in the front right field of vision, Pochi thought he was hallucinating at first.

He stopped for a moment and wiped his eyes vigorously.

After confirming that the little black dot was real and not a mistake, Pochi showed a happy smile on his face and teleported straight in that direction.

When he was rushing towards the island, the sun in the sky had already set on the horizon, and it was about to set.

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

After teleporting forward about twenty times in a row, Pochi's energy was almost exhausted, and finally... only a few kilometers away from the island!

The outline of the island is already very clear. It doesn't look that big, only a few thousand square meters. It is covered with lush trees, and the black and green land is a bit depressing at first glance.

"Hohoo...hohoo..." Seeing the island approaching, Pochi gasped heavily.

He felt that he was so tired now that he could no longer teleport the next time.

He had no choice but to swim forward and swim to the island little by little.

When Pochi swam to a position only a few hundred meters away from the island, the sun had completely set.

"Boom!" A faint bell sounded in Pochi's ear.

Hearing this voice, his consciousness was in a trance for a moment, and he closed his eyes with some discomfort.

When Pochi opened his eyes again, he found that... the island in front of him had disappeared!

The island that was there just a second ago is gone!
"Huh? Where's my island!" Pochi was shocked, and quickly swam towards the direction where the island was just now.

However, when he swam there, he didn't see anything or touch anything, and the surroundings were empty, as if the island just now was just Pochi's illusion.

"Could it be sinking? Isn't there that kind of tidal island? When the tide rises, it disappears, and when the tide ebbs, it appears. What if this island is also in the same situation!"

Pochi quickly thought of a possibility.

"Plop!" He jumped into the water and dived into the sea.

However, Pochi kept going downstream until he reached the bottom of the sea, but he still couldn't find the disappearing island.

Just like Mooni and the Popo Popo, the island disappeared out of nowhere!
Seeing this situation, Pochi not only didn't feel disappointed, but even laughed.

"That's right! There must be a connection between these two disappearances! I found a very important clue!" Porch said with a joyful smile on his face and his eyes burning.

He looked around and soon found more clues.

Just like the place where he set off just now, there is actually a pile of unknown bones under this water area.

Swimming further, Pochi even found a pile of black stones that looked familiar!
Like the pile of stones discovered before, this pile of stones is also arranged according to certain rules.

However, the patterns displayed by the two piles of black stones are not exactly the same, but slightly different.

Pochi took a closer look and found that the two patterns should be mirror images!
Seeing this, he carefully recalled the disappearance of the island just now, and sorted out more details.

"As I swam up, the sun was just setting, and then I heard a bell... and the island disappeared!"

"Does this mean that this island appeared during the day and disappeared at night?"

"Money and the others disappeared at night, and they disappeared as soon as I woke up..."

"No! Moni and the others didn't disappear at night! They disappeared during the day!"

"On the morning they disappeared, I also seemed to hear a vague bell, and then I opened my eyes, and then saw the sun come out, and Moony and the boat were gone!"

"That's right! That's it! They're opposites!"

Combined with the mirror image pattern he saw just now, Pochi grasped the point at once.

He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth.

However, in the next second, Pochi frowned again.

He muttered to himself with some doubts: "But... there is no island in that place, and I stayed there for several days, and Moni and the boat did not reappear!"

"Is it... not only related to day and night, but also related to the date? What date is it now?"

"I can't remember..."

"It doesn't matter, let's see if there are any murals on these stones, and then swim up to see the moon and guess the time!"

Pochi shook his head, and swam to the rock pile on the bottom of the sea.

After cleaning the surface of the stone, he saw the murals engraved on it again.

What made him even more delighted was that the contents of these murals were consistent with those of the previous murals, and even clearer.

Strange meat balls suddenly appeared, a lot of creatures walking on the ground, flying in the sky, and swimming in the water died collectively, and then... Pochi saw something new!

Five creatures of different shapes appeared on the mural.

Dragons, humans, cats, whales, giant turtles.

These five creatures formed a circle, and their mouths were all depicted with their mouths open, as if they were discussing something.

"Sea God!" Pochi shouted, pointing at one of the whales.

In the myths and legends of marine life passed down from generation to generation, the image of the god of the sea is a huge white whale.

The most notable feature on its body is a crescent-shaped stripe on the top of its head, which looks exactly like the image depicted in the mural!
If this whale is the god of the sea, then the other patterns on this mural...should represent several other gods at that time!

The gods gathered together, the content of the discussion should be...

Pochi turned his gaze to the next mural, and saw the scene where these gods surrounded the huge meat ball hanging in the sky and attacked it together!

Under the attack of several gods, countless pieces fell from the fleshy ball and fell into the earth and sea.

Where the debris fell, the surrounding creatures were deformed, turning into small, twisted and deformed meat balls, and then flew into the sky and merged into the body of the big meat balls!

The more he attacked, the stronger the meat ball became, and the size grew bigger and bigger, almost covering the entire sky.

The gods had no choice but to temporarily retire and rest.

"Gudong..." Seeing this, Pochi swallowed involuntarily.

He had a hunch that if the contents of these murals were true, maybe he could solve the mystery of the fall of the gods!
Sure enough, the next mural depicted a scene where several gods reunited.

Different from the previous painting, this time there are several dependents behind each god.

They stand behind the god they are loyal to, with anxious or surprised expressions on their faces.

Then, there is a big scene.

Countless animals are running on the land, countless human beings are dragging their families to flee for their lives, birds are flocking in the sky, and fish in the ocean are diving desperately.

Almost all creatures are fleeing, the only thing that is still is the meat ball hanging high above the sky, almost covering the entire sky.

It's time for the final battle.

Mountains crumbled, the earth cracked, and trees fell.

Each of the five gods guarded one side, took the shattered land into the air, and floated towards the sky.

One after another, stones rushed towards the fleshy ball in the sky, surrounding it as a whole, and shrinking tighter and smaller, until it was completely trapped and turned into an indestructible cage.

This is not over yet, the next mural depicts the scene of five gods rushing up to the sky, pushing the meat ball back step by step.

The meat ball trapped in Stonehenge seemed to resist, and the next piece of murals depicted the scene of five gods falling to the ground together.

Even the rocks wrapped around Meatball's body were collapsing little by little.

Just at the moment of crisis, the God of the Ocean turned into a ray of light and rushed towards the meat ball.

Rays of light lit up one after another, illuminating the entire sky.

On the last mural is a scene that Pochi is familiar with.

There are two moons, one large and one small, hanging in the sky. Below is a wave-shaped ocean. A semicircular land stands like an isolated island surrounded by the ocean.

Under one of the moons, a line of crooked characters was engraved.

【It's a disaster! ! ! 】

Touching the words on the mural lightly with his hands, Pochi pursed his lips tightly and didn't say a word for a long time.

There used to be gods in this world, and later they became the light, the light that illuminates the world.

In this world, there used to be a land that was wider than the ocean, and later it rose into the sky and became a bright moon hanging high.

Hongyue, that big meatball!
