How to become a mermaid

Chapter 82 The Moon of the Tides
into the night.

There are two moons hanging high in the sky, one slightly white and one scarlet.

Obviously Hongyue only showed a hook, but took all of Baiyue's limelight.

The red moonlight shines down, covering the earth with a scarlet coat.

There was silence in Apache Island at this time.

Originally, the curfew here was ten o'clock at night, but now it's just after nightfall, and almost all the buildings have their doors and windows closed.

There are even some red symbols with strange lines painted on many doors and windows.

This was drawn by the residents of the island themselves. It is said that it is a spell passed down from ancient times to pray to the goddess of the sea.

There were no islanders who came out to move around on the street, only those patrolling guards in black armor that covered their entire body.

"Dengdengdeng..."

Dull footsteps sounded from all over the city.

Thousands of guards walked back and forth, patrolling various places in the city.

"Dengdengdeng..."

A patrol came near the cemetery.

This is the largest cemetery on the island, where at least tens of thousands of dead are buried.

However, the land on the island was extremely limited, so it would be a pity to leave such a large piece of land unused, so only the big island had a cemetery, and the corpses on the small island were burned directly.

And even on the Big Island, cemeteries have a limited number of years.

After each cemetery has been used for 60 years, it will be put into production again to cultivate plants.

The dead bones buried inside will be dug out and taken away by their relatives and friends. If there are no relatives and friends, they will always be buried under the ground, entangled with the roots of various plants, and turned into spring mud for flower protection.

Some islands even specially use wasteland as a cemetery, and when it is reused, a large piece of fertile soil can be harvested.

"Dengdengdengdeng..."

Heavy footsteps sounded around the cemetery, and the guards patrolled the cemetery nervously.

Countless gray and white steles stand in the cemetery, and the portraits of the deceased on the tombstones look particularly eerie under the red moonlight.

The garden was silent, even the chirping of insects and birds disappeared, only the dull footsteps could be heard.

This kind of silence made the passing patrol members feel tense, and just wanted to get out of here quickly.

However, they don't seem to be able to go today!
"Everything..."

Suddenly there was a crackling sound in the cemetery.

The sound of this sound was immediately noticed by the guards.

They turned their heads one after another and locked their eyes on the place where the voice came from.

"Puchi..." Suddenly, a bloody hand emerged from the soil.

As the layer of soil was pulled away bit by bit, the highly corrupted corpse climbed crookedly from the cemetery, and walked forward tremblingly.

Every time he took a step, a few pieces of minced meat covered with maggots would fall from his body.

"Zombie Month! This year is Zombie Month!"

The guards who saw this scene exclaimed loudly.

[Tidal Moon] will not only affect the ocean, but also affect the land. It is even different every year, and it has a "theme".

Sometimes, the land illuminated by the moonlight will be alienated, and the plants on it will explode instantly, and they will be highly aggressive, and will actively attack humans and other animals.

However, this situation will disappear when the sun rises the next day, and people call this situation [Plant Moon].

Sometimes, the creatures exposed to the moonlight will change their gender, and they cannot change back. They can only wait until the next [Tide Moon] that can change gender, which is called [Wonderful Moon].

Sometimes, this kind of resurrection of corpses will happen. Even skeletons can be resurrected. As long as they can walk and move, they will crawl out of the soil, so it is also called "Living Corpse Moon". .

In addition to the above situations, there are dozens of possibilities, and [Moon of the Tides] can always bring surprises to people.

"Puchi..."

"Puchi..."

Perhaps in response to the exclamation of the guards, countless hands stretched out from the cemetery in an instant.

Carrion corpses and dry bones trembled up from the cemetery.

"Roar~!"

The skeletons who were walking lightly and slowly, after noticing the living people patrolling around the cemetery, their footsteps suddenly became brisk, and they ran towards the guards.

"Heck, thump, thump..." The bones were trembling.

Even if the skeletons are about to fall apart, they will recklessly approach the living.

The leading guard pulled out the long sword at his waist, stabbed at the skeleton frame near him, and chopped the skeleton frame into pieces in two or three strokes.

While slashing, he still did not forget to order loudly:

"Quick! Adrey, go and notify the other patrolling people in the city, and tell them to come over for reinforcements! We're here to guard! Don't let these guys run into residential areas!"

Not only those buried in the soil are called corpses, people who died during the tidal moon will also quickly get up and join the team of living corpses to attack the living.

In order to avoid more and more enemies, they must kill this danger in the cradle.

"Understood Captain!"

The man named Adre quickly took off his armor, transformed into a big white bird, and flew towards the city.

"It's not good! There is a change in the cemetery. This year is the month of living corpses! All guards, please rush to the cemetery now!" Adrey flew over the city, spreading the news everywhere.

"Residents on the island, please close the doors and windows, and don't open the door if you hear any sound!!"

"Don't open the door! Don't open the door when you hear anyone tell you!!"

"They are no longer your relatives, they are just moving corpses! Never open the door!"

Important things are repeated three times.

This reminder is because some corpses can speak if they are not so badly corrupted.

Moreover, they would keep shouting the names of their loved ones. If anyone heard the sound and opened the door, they would immediately be attacked by the living corpses waiting outside the door and join their team.

"Deng Deng Deng Deng..." Hearing Adre's notice, the guards, who had been walking slowly, started to run and hurried to the cemetery on the island.

……

Moni stood on the window sill of the island lord's mansion, condescendingly looking down at the guards who were passing by below, his expression gradually turned gloomy.

I actually encountered the month of living corpses, it seems that these two months are going to be difficult, this year I have taken on a troublesome job for myself!
"Mr. Money, I'm counting on you in the sea, don't let those dead fish get close to the sea rice tree!"

The voice of the island master came from behind.

"Understood!" Money said without looking back.

His body transformed rapidly, turning into a huge red dragon and flying into the sky.

"Roar!!"

Mo Nipai flew out of the island with his wings, and as expected, he saw a large piece of fish carcasses surging up in the water.

Big ones and small ones, meaty ones but not meaty ones, just rotten fish and rotten shrimps!

Compared with the land, the sea is more troublesome!
How many people die a year, and how many fish die a year?
Fortunately, the red moon's irradiation distance is limited, and it can only illuminate the shallow sea about 100 meters away, and those things that sink into the bottom of the sea will not be awakened.

Otherwise, every time the Living Corpse Moon comes, human beings really can't stand it.

"Roar!!!"

Money let out an angry roar, and rushed towards the bustling dead fish in the sea.
