How to become a mermaid

Chapter 423 Our mother and child are of the same mind!

"You can try... it just takes a little time." Hearing Number Six's request, Number Nine replied slowly.

It can observe the creatures in the sea, but not including those aberrants. Those guys are like a layer of fog, and they are blocked from its sight.

If you want to find them, you can only determine the location of those aberrants by observing other fishes and their abnormal reactions.

So No. [-] is not sure how long it will take him to complete this matter.

"Even if the observation of the candidates is suspended, the group of aberrants must be found first!"

"The Lord of Disaster's influence cannot be allowed to expand, or the ocean will face a catastrophe!" Number Six said solemnly.

"I understand!" Faced with his companion's request, No. [-] could only nod in agreement.

……

After finishing talking with No. [-], No. [-] went to find Pochi again.

When it saw Pochi, he was leading other fishes to exercise before going to bed in the public relations activity room.

I don't know if it's because of the coming of the red moon. Recently, some fish have always come to him to give feedback, saying that the pain on his body is much worse than before.

So he can only increase the dosage and lead these fish to do more exercise every day.

"The last eight beats, everyone must hold on!"

"One two three four, two two three four..."

"Flick your fins, turn around, and wag your tail!"

"Come to the beat, three two three four, four two three four, don't stop!"

Seeing that today's exercise is coming to an end, No. [-] didn't go up to bother.

After Pochi shouted "eight two three four" and finished all the actions, it waved its fin at Pochi to signal him to come over.

Pochi noticed it quickly, and came over wagging his tail.

"Number Six! What do you want from me?"

"You may have to go to Di Geya earlier." Number Six said.

"Why?" Boqi was still a little puzzled at first, but soon thought of the fact that Laya was coming to see him, and the whole fish became visibly happy, and said loudly, "Did Laya arrive already?"

"Great! I haven't seen her in decades!"

"Should I bring some gifts to meet her? She seems to like pearls, the same as Alicia's!"

"Pearls and pearls~ I'm going to find some beautiful pearls from sea oysters! Then weave them into beautiful necklaces and give them to Laya!"

"Boqi... Calm down!" Seeing Boqi seemed a little too excited, No. [-] couldn't help but stop his further associations.

"Hey? What's the matter?" His train of thought was interrupted suddenly, and Boqi was still dazed for a moment, his eyes full of confusion.

"I thought I had some sad news to tell you..."

No. [-] lowered his voice and said regretfully, "Moni asked me for help just now, saying that Laya was captured by humans on the way to Digea."

"I think you may not be able to see her for the time being, you have to find a way to save her first!"

Hearing this, Pochi showed a surprised expression on his face, and said something unexpected to No. [-], "Has Laya been captured by humans again?"

"Counting this time, she has been captured by humans four times... no, it has been five times! She is almost catching up with me!"

How on earth did you manage to be caught so many times by humans...

Pochi's words made No. [-] feel powerless to complain, but he still couldn't help reminding: "This time is different, this time it's those people from the Sacred Fire Cult who did it!"

Hearing his words, Pochi touched his chin with his hand, and seemed to be lost in some kind of thought.

Soon, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "The current situation looks a bit like the plot in a legend!"

"Holy Flame Cult is the evil villain, and Pochi is the protagonist!"

"Because I can't beat Pochi, the big villain chose to threaten Pochi's family!"

"If it is written according to the normal ending, the brave Pochi will be invincible all the way, and write an epic story of saving his mother!"

"Yes! That's it!" He clapped his hands suddenly, and said excitedly, "Pochi is going to become the protagonist!"

"When I finally rescued my mother after going through untold hardships, we will look at each other affectionately amidst the sound of the rough sea waves, looking forward to seeing through thousands of years!"

"At that time, even the seagulls in the sky will stop neighing and sing for us in unison!"

"The warm sun shines on us, refracting the scales on our bodies and the tears in our eyes into colorful colors."

"We wept with joy and hugged each other until the sun went down. We became the most moving pair of mermaid mother and son in the sea!"

"The whole sea, and even the whole world, will spread our stories!"

"We'll even have a statue of our own, engraved with [the warrior of the mermaid tribe, the heroic Pochi, and his strong, brave, beautiful and kind mother Raya]!"

Number six: "..."

It's over, there is a picture in my mind!

No... this is not right!
This is completely different from what I imagined!

Your mother was arrested, but you are worried and uncomfortable, why do you look forward to it!

Almost being taken in by Pochi's thoughts, No. [-] shook his head violently to wake himself up.

After throwing the statue of [Mermaid Warrior...] out of its mind, it showed a helpless expression on its face, and asked Boqi: "The people of the Holy Fire Cult are not good, so don't worry about what will happen to her. Question?"

"Worry!" Boqi nodded vigorously, and said in a serious tone: "I am very worried that Laya will have a bad life if she is captured by humans, but I believe her life is not in danger!"

"Why?" Number Six asked back.

"Because I'm here! I will never let her die!" Pointing at his chest, Pochi said proudly: "Her life is connected with mine, we are of the same mind!"

Perhaps because of the doubts in No. [-]'s eyes, he immediately explained: "Laya has a special ability, that is, she can share her life with other mermaids!"

"As long as one of the two mermaids is still alive, the other will not die, and the damage suffered will be shared."

"As early as the day I was born, Laya has closely linked her own life with mine."

"I was a bit naughty when I was a child, I always liked to take risks everywhere, and I was often injured on my body, which caused her a lot of trouble..." Maybe it was because of the memory of his experience of getting into trouble, there was a little guilt in Pochi's voice.

If it weren't for Laya's ability, he might not have grown so big...

But soon, his emotions rose again, and he said firmly: "It was my mother who protected me before, now it's time for me to protect her!"

"No matter how many injuries she suffers, I can help her bear it!"

"I will be able to successfully rescue her, and I will definitely not let anything happen to her!"

When he said those words, Pochi's eyes were shining brightly.

He believes that he can do it, and he also believes that Laya will believe that he can do it. This is the special tacit understanding between their mother and son.

So although the current situation is a bit bad, there is not much worry on his face, but he thinks in the most optimistic direction.

"It seems that I don't have to worry about you anymore..." Seeing Pochi like this, Number Six's tone was somewhat relieved.

That's right, when they first took a fancy to Pochi, they thought he had an unprecedentedly optimistic and confident personality.

"Then you want to go to Digea with me now? Go see your human son, and discuss with him the future countermeasures." Number Six asked Porch.

"Of course! I haven't seen him for a long time!" Pochi nodded and said affirmatively.

Number Six was waiting for his words, and right after Pochi finished speaking, the spots on its body began to flicker.

But in the blink of an eye, the scene before Pochi's eyes changed, from the deep seabed to a magnificent human palace.

Moni was standing only a few steps away from them. When he saw No. [-] suddenly bringing Pochi over, his eyes widened all of a sudden, and he let out a surprised voice: "Poky!!"

However, soon, he thought of Laya's arrest again, the smile on his face gradually faded, and his voice also sank.

Looking at Pochi's bright and deep eyes, Moni showed a forced smile on his face, and said, "Boqi... must have told you about Laya on the [-]th."

"It's all my fault, it's my negligence these days, that's why..."

The apology was only halfway through when it was interrupted.

"Son!" Boqi rushed forward and hugged Moni, slapped his back with his hands, and said excitedly: "Long time no see! I'm so happy to see you are still so energetic !"

"It's really hard for you when I'm not around!"

"It's building a church for me, spreading the faith, and taking care of everything so well. Thanks to you, so many people like me!"

"I'm so proud to have such an amazing son like you!" When he said this, Boqi's tone rose a lot, obviously with a very sincere look.

Instead of being scolded, he was praised so enthusiastically by Pochi. Moni blushed, and his whole body was visibly excited after seeing his dejected appearance just now.

He praised me!Pochi said proud of me!

An excited smile gradually climbed onto Moni's face, and even his eyes began to turn red. The fish fever that had not recurred for many years suddenly broke out at this moment.

Seeing that Moni's mood seems to have returned to normal (abnormal?), Pochi showed a satisfied smile on his face.

That's right!He didn't come here to listen to Moni's apology, let alone to hold Moni accountable!
As a good father, he never scolded his children!

"Crack!" Putting his hand firmly on Moni's shoulder, Pochi said in a serious tone, "I do know about Laya's matter. This is not your responsibility alone, and I am also at fault!"

"When I knew that I had so many enemies, I still let her run so far to find me, and I didn't even provide her with enough protection. I am the biggest responsible person!"

"So don't blame yourself alone, face it with me!"

Looking at Pochi's bright smiling face, Moni felt that all kinds of worries and troubles in his heart were swept away in an instant, and even the exhaustion accumulated in the past few days was also reduced a lot, and his whole body became energetic up.

"Okay! Let's find it together!" He also said with a smile.

Seeing the energetic appearance of this pair of "father and son", No. [-] felt that he had nothing to do here, so he said: "Leave the matter of Laya to you first, I will go back first, and contact me if you have anything to do." !"

After finishing speaking, spots of light began to flicker on its body, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After No. [-] left, Pochi seemed to suddenly remember something, and turned to Moni and asked, "That's right! Laya should have come with a separate fish this time. Where's that fish?"

Hearing his words, Mo Ni remembered the matter of Io, slapped his head suddenly, and said, "Damn it, why did you forget about it!"

"It should still be in the sea now, and I don't know what's going on now. I'll write to Xiaoyu now and ask him to contact Io!"

...............

If you want to say who is the one who regrets the most in the disappearance of Laya, it must be Io.

It now regrets why it hunted separately from Laya in the evening.

Obviously they were inseparable all the way, but at the last moment they made a negligence.

[How could it be such a coincidence!Just when I was away, just when we were about to arrive in Digea...]

[Damn it!This guy who took the potion of the scuttle worm, when I find him, I will never let him go! 】

Wandering back and forth at the place where Raya disappeared last, Io's gray body was stained with a hint of angry red.

The bodies of shadow worms usually have no color, and they are a mass of gray like a shadow, but when their emotions are extremely fluctuating, a trace of red or white will appear at the position of their heads.

Obviously, Io is very angry now, and he is about to explode.

It has been investigating here for most of the day, and has also found some clues about the person who kidnapped Raya.

Just close to the coral reef, there is a place where the space is misaligned.

This is the effect of Carlos opening the space tunnel.

Every time he opens the space tunnel, there will be a "gap" between the exit and the entrance.

This is the trace formed after the space was cracked. Even if he closed the space tunnel, this trace will not disappear immediately, but will take at least a few days to gradually merge with the surrounding space.

Space is such a mysterious thing that ordinary people may not be able to discover it, but Io, as a special creature that walks in reality and shadows, is keenly aware of the abnormality here, and recognizes the reason that can cause this phenomenon. biology.

——【Splitting Air Worm】.

A bug as special and rare as it is.

No... probably even rarer than that!
Io himself has never encountered this kind of bug, but has only seen it once or twice in the memory of his fellow tribe.

Different from the dusty appearance of the shadow worm, the rift worm doesn't even have a body, or other creatures can't see its true appearance, and when you look around, you can only see a mass of transparent air.

But they are a group of "air" that can think, not only can roam freely in any corner of the world, but also like to suddenly appear to scare other creatures, or secretly take things from other creatures, and hide aside to watch the owner The ugliness of searching over and over again.

For such creatures that come and go without a trace, the only evidence that can prove that they have been here is the special gap they leave when they travel through space.

Taking another look at the space crack above the coral clump, Io strengthened his guess.

[You can't be wrong, it's the trace left by the worm!But this kind of worm just likes to play pranks, and it is impossible to be a kidnapper, so it can only be done by someone with the ability to crack the air worm! 】
