How to become a mermaid

Chapter 382 Deadly Blue
How do you feel when a fish with a sea-clear pale blue skeleton and equally blue, glassy skin swims slowly over your head?
Shamanleir's first feeling was astonishment.

The light emitted by the luxuriant algae on both sides of the cave hit the fish gently, reflecting with its translucent body, casting a light blue shadow in the whole cave.

Shamanleir looked up in fascination, as if seeing the moonlight falling from the sky.

However, this state did not last long.

As more and more fish with the same characteristics swam past him, he noticed something was wrong.

If there is only one fish that looks like this, it can also be explained by a special race.

But almost all the fish in the cave are like this, which can only be called weird.

Shamanleir took a closer look and found that many fish still had light blue crystals growing in clusters, as if countless kyanite were inlaid on the body.

These things... Could it be the sequelae that No. [-] and No. [-] mentioned?
It doesn't look scary, but rather...

beautiful.

As Samantel observed the other fish in the cave, the fish noticed him too.

A dolphin with blue skin and a translucent spar-like tail swam towards him.

"I've never seen you before, are you new here?" the dolphin said softly.

Its voice is gentle and friendly, and there is no malice in the eyes looking at Shamanleir, only curiosity.

"I..." Facing the question of the dolphins, Samantel hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "I'm not new here, I'm here to find fish!"

"Have you ever seen a mermaid named Pochi? He is my father, and I want to meet him now!"

"Boqi!" After hearing Boqi's name, the dolphin had a strong reaction, and it said excitedly: "I know him! It sings to us every day to soothe our pain!"

While speaking, the dolphin shook its tail vigorously.

However, this action seemed to have touched a certain sore spot on it. Shamanleir saw with his own eyes that the expression on its face changed from excitement to pain, and the movement of its tail shaking became obviously stiff.

Seeing this, Samantel couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with you? Is there something uncomfortable?"

"Don't you know?" the dolphin asked in surprise.

Samantel shook his head, not quite understanding what it was referring to.

Seeing that he seemed really unclear, the dolphin shook its fins twice, and said to Shamanleir, "Touch my tail and you'll know!"

A beautiful dolphin asks you to touch its tail:

Accept/Reject?

Of course I accepted it!

Samantel stretched out his hand and gently touched its tail.

Not at all soft like other dolphins.

It is very hard and cold to the touch, just like real ore.

"With such a stiff tail... can you still swim?" Shamanlael asked with some doubts.

This tail feels like a rock, and I don't know how the dolphin just shook it.

"I have to swim if I can't swim! Only in this way can the remaining potion evaporate! Otherwise, when the potion accumulates on my body, my whole body will become like a tail!" The dolphin replied seriously.

"So... all of this was caused by "that" potion?" Shamanlael asked in amazement.

"Yes!" The dolphin nodded, and said to Shamanleir without concealment: "If you want to become a sea god, you must first take a special potion."

"If it succeeds, the original life form will transform and become a truly innocent and flawless body of a god! Afterwards, you can open the ascension rank to obtain the authority of a god, and you will be able to become a real god!"

"But if it fails, it will be like us, infected from the inside out by the potion, and become what it is now!"

"Those potions that haven't been digested will run wild in our bodies, and then dissimilate our flesh and bones, turning them into energy-rich kyanite!"

"At the beginning, there were only signs of blue skin, and then the flesh and blood will also be stained blue, and finally developed to the bones!"

"This process is extremely painful, just like countless small stones have drilled into your body. Every time you move your flesh and blood will rub against these stones, creating an unbearable soreness."

"And the part that has turned into kyanite will also lose consciousness and gradually become out of control."

"When all the bones in the body turn into kyanite, that fish will be useless!"

"It will become unable to swim, unable to breathe, unable to do any movements, and can only maintain one movement, waiting for the death of life!"

After listening to what the dolphin said, and looking at the sapphire-like clear and translucent tail behind it, Samantel didn't think this thing was beautiful at all.

The more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is.

He couldn't help asking: "Is this process irreversible? Is there a way to save it?"

"Irreversible! After turning into kyanite, the body cannot return to its previous appearance."

"But there is still a way~" The dolphin endured the pain and shook its tail, and said, "The main reason why these kyanites grow is that the body cannot fully absorb the potion. As long as you move more and consume more energy, you can Let these potions be consumed slowly!"

"And we will also take medicine to assist in the discharge of the potion."

"Although this process will be a bit painful and will last for several years, at least one life can be saved. In recent years, there have been very few fish that died due to the side effects of potions."

After saying this, the dolphin approached Samantel again, lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "Little mermaid, you must have come here at the invitation of the supervisor, right?"

watch dogs?Did you mean number nine and number six?
Shamanleir nodded slowly and said, "Number Six brought me here."

This dolphin also seemed to know number six, it shook its tail twice after hearing the name, and said softly: "I knew it, you are also one of the candidates for the sea god!"

"Listen to my advice, leave immediately after you see Pochi."

"At your current stage, don't come here, and don't try to drink that potion!"

"Are you worried that I will become..." Shaman Lair hesitated before asking, "Are you like this?"

The dolphin nodded and said in a sincere tone: "Yes! This is too painful!"

"Including Pochi, there are only six successful fishes, and besides Pochi and Bill, the other fish were particularly powerful fish before drinking the potion."

"It cannot be said that a weak fish cannot digest this potion, but the risk will definitely be much greater than that of a powerful fish!"

"I don't want a cute little mermaid like you to take risks. Let us big fish save the world!"

Unexpectedly, this dolphin cared so much about him. Shamanleer felt warm and said softly, "Thank you! I will listen to you, and I will never be impulsive!"

"That's good!" The dolphin's tone lightened up with the assurance from Shaman Lear.

It touched Shamanlell's tail with its fin and said, "Come with me, I know where Pochi is!"

……

"La la la la la ~"

"Everyone move with me!"

"Wig your tail left first, then right! Make a big circle with your tail!"

"Raise your right hand upwards and draw a circle vigorously! If you don't have a hand, stretch out your fins!"

"Extend your left fin again and draw a circle!"

"Repeat these actions! One da da, two da da~"

"Left, right, circle around!"

Shamanleir was taken by the dolphins to a small cave below the public rest area.

Before swimming in, I heard bursts of beats coming from inside.

It's Pochi's voice!

Shamanleir immediately recognized who the talking fish was, and accelerated his swimming speed.

When he entered this small cave, he saw a bunch of small and medium-sized fish.

The largest fish did not exceed ten meters, and the smallest was only tens of centimeters.

The crystallization phenomenon on their bodies is very obvious. Most of the fish have blue crystals growing on their bodies, and there are even a few fish whose whole body is translucent blue. It can be seen that the movement is very slow after shaking. .

At this time, these fish are neatly arranged in the water, shaking their bodies following the rhythm and music.

And the one who made these voices was Pochi, whom Shamanlael was looking for!

Unlike the fish around him, Pochi didn't have any traces of blue on his body.

Black hair, silver tail, looks unchanged from before.

However, upon closer inspection, he discovered that there was a hazy halo covering his body.

It's not obvious, but it does exist, making Pochi's entire body illusory, as if seeing flowers through a fog, which is unreal.

It's like being ripped from this world.

Seeing the figure of Pochi in the distance, Shamanlael suddenly had such a feeling in his heart.

He opened his mouth, wanting to call Pochi.

However, before the sound came out, Pochi's voice came from next to his ear: "Son! You are here!"

"You wait for me for a while! Let me bring some fish to finish the warm-up exercise and then find you!"

Just when Shamanleer heard Pochi's voice ringing in his ears, Pochi in the distance was still instructing the fish to stretch their bodies.

"One da da ~ two da da ~ turn around!"

The voice in the ear and the voice in the distance sounded almost simultaneously, but they did not interfere with each other, as if there were two Pochi talking.

The other fish obviously didn't hear what Poch and Shamanleir said. They stared straight ahead and moved their bodies seriously.

Seeing this scene, Samantel was a little stunned, chose to obey Pochi's words, and stayed aside to watch.

It seems Pochi has been the fish's "fitness coach" for a long time.

Every move of his was very skillful, and the fish below followed him very carefully.

When the range of activities is too violent, some fish will have a painful expression on their faces, but they will continue to persist.

Moreover, it won't be long before the expressions on these fish's faces will gradually change to relaxed again, and there will be more gratitude in the eyes of Pochi, as if he has done something to these fish.

Seeing such a large group of fish "doing exercises" in front of him, with unusually expressive expressions, Shamanleil didn't feel bored, and even danced twice to Pochi's beat.

About an hour later, Pochi finished the last beat and said loudly to the fish:
"Everyone must remember that life lies in movement! Don't stop, and don't lie motionless on the rocks because you are afraid of pain! Otherwise, it will become more painful later!"

"Let's disband now, let's continue tomorrow!"

"Thank you, Mr. Boqi!" All the fish thanked in unison, shaking their lighter bodies and leaving.

When passing by Shamanleir, they will stop and take a curious look, but they will not take the liberty of disturbing.

After a while, all the fish in the cave left, leaving only Shaman Lear and Pochi.

Shamanlael looked at Boqi, trying to see Boqi's current appearance, but found that everything was in vain, it was still a hazy fog.

Not only that, he also felt a sense of strangeness and oppression.

When Pochi looked at him, he even had an urge to worship him.

At this moment, Pochi's brisk voice sounded in Shamanlael's ear again.

"Son! Have you been waiting long?"

The familiar voice immediately dispelled the sense of distance between the father and son, and let Shamanlell know that Pochi is still that Pochi.

"I..." Before he could respond, he felt a tightness in his chest and was hugged warmly by Pochi.

Obviously there were thousands of meters between them one second ago, but Pochi's hand patted Shamanlell's back the next second.

While tightly hugging his long-lost son, Boqi babbled: "I want to hug you when I'm doing sports! During the years when I'm not here, have you grown up well? !"

"It's become so strong! The tail is even more beautiful!"

"Father is proud of you. When you become an adult, there must be many female mermaids who will like you!"

"No! Now I will attract many females!"

"But you can't fall in love early, otherwise Alicia will be sad!"

Speaking of Alicia, Pochi talked even more, and blew Alicia's rainbow fart directly to Shaman Lair.

"How is Alicia recently? Is she still as beautiful as before, graceful, strong and brave, healthy and lively, tender, kind and generous..."

Hearing this, Samantel couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

I agree with everything else, but the point of tenderness like water is a bit outrageous!
When you were not around, she didn't know how many times she hit me!

Hearing it was so tiring, Shamanlaer couldn't help but said to Poch: "I think you can tell her these words in person!"

Hearing these words, Pochi's nagging stopped suddenly.

He let go of Samantel, a trace of worry appeared on his invisible face, and he said in a timid tone, "But I dare not..."

"When I came to find No. [-] and No. [-], I didn't tell her... She will definitely be angry when she sees me!"

Those believers of the Poki religion may not believe that their great Poki god is afraid of his wife!
