Chapter 120 Mermaid (Subscription Request)

"Puch!"

"You swung your sword and cut your own throat. Blood gushed out and soon dyed the ground red."

"You lost a lot of blood."

"You are dead."

"You used the elixir gourd."

"Please select your resurrection location."

"You woke up next to a bonfire in the church town."

"The current number of elixirs remaining (0/3)."

"The elixir gourd has been automatically destroyed."

Looking at a series of game texts.

This time Jiang Xinghuo knew what to do and went straight to the four-wheeled carriage.

"You chose to ride into town in a carriage."

"The coachman came down from his seat and opened the door with the key. After you got in the carriage, he locked the door with the key again."

"Then you heard the wheels rolling."

"The carriage is heading for the church town."

"Please wait……"

The game text stops here.

Jiang Xinghuo put down his phone and waited quietly.

After more than half an hour, a notification sound came from the phone and a new game text popped up.

"You suddenly woke up from your deep sleep. The carriage stopped without you noticing. You opened the curtains beside you and looked out through the barred glass window. The sky had already darkened. You could only see a pale full moon hanging high in the sky."

"At this moment, the door of the carriage suddenly opened automatically."

"You pushed open the door and stepped out of the carriage. The driver and the horse had disappeared, leaving only an empty carriage."

"You look up and forward. Under the pale moonlight, a classical Gothic bridge gate appears before your eyes. The eaves are intricately carved with decorations. You can vaguely see a towering bell tower and an elegant spire church."

"When you get close to the bridge gate, you'll find that the big gate in the middle and the small gates on both sides are blocked by carved iron fences."

"There is also a mottled and broken stone tablet next to it, with three large characters "Church Town" engraved on it in two languages."

"You have arrived at the church town."

"You explored the surroundings carefully and found the extinguished campfire and the rusted bridge door noose."

"You lit the bonfire of Church Town."

"Go to the noose switch of the bridge gate, clear away the debris entangled on it, take out a perpetual lamp, and pour the lamp oil inside on the switch."

"The bridge gate noose has been restored to normal."

"You flipped the noose switch on the town bridge gate."

"Accompanied by a hesitant sound, the iron fence of the bridge gate slowly rose, revealing the road leading to the town."

"Are you going into the church town?"

Jiang Xinghuo thought to himself, if I can't get in, why should I waste so much time and effort, so he chose to go in immediately.

“You have entered the church town.”

"You have come to the town's fountain square."

"The dim street lights illuminated the surrounding area of ​​the square. Long ago, the church town was also a prosperous place."

"But since the sudden plague, the church town has gradually become deserted. More than 70% of the residents in the town have died. Those who are lucky enough to survive can only linger in pain." "The members of the church were almost all killed or injured. Only the bishop survived and hid alone in the bell tower."

"You walked to the middle of the dried-up fountain pool and explored it carefully. You found the body of a mermaid in the corner."

"You have obtained the remains of the mermaid."

"The remains of a mermaid (ordinary item). This is a mysterious creature that lives in the deep sea. It is also called the spring guest. It is alive but not dead. Its tears turn into pearls. It lives in water like a fish and has no worries about lifespan."

"But now this mermaid has been dead for a long time, and only a trace of spiritual energy remains in its body, which can be used as a material for refining certain elixirs."

"Of course, you can also place it in the Water God Palace. Perhaps one day, you can revive the mermaid again."

Seeing the last paragraph of the game text, Jiang Xinghuo's eyes lit up. He had no shortage of money now, so it would be of no use even if he sold the mermaid.

Why not put it in the Water God Palace, what if it can come back to life in the future? This is a truly extraordinary creature!

Thinking of this, Jiang Xinghuo immediately clicked on the text and chose to put the mermaid into Suicune Palace.

After a moment, the game gave a success prompt.

hum!
Jiang Xinghuo's mind moved, and he unfolded the Water Palace in his body. In the river water that was emitting a bright green light, a mermaid-like creature was floating.

The upper body has a human appearance, with long silver hair falling on the shoulders, and the face is also like that of a human girl, pretty and lovely. There is a white ribbon wrapped around the chest, decorated with scales.

Its lower body is completely different from that of humans. It has a silvery-white fish tail with layers of scales and a tail fin like brocade, about five feet long.

It is exactly the same as the mermaid in myths and legends, except that there is a hideous and terrifying transparent hole in the abdomen where the fish tail connects to the human body.

I think this is also the cause of the mermaid's death.

Looking at the mermaid floating in the water, Jiang Xinghuo sighed slightly, wondering if the mermaid could still survive.

Jiang Xinghuo thought for a while, then put away the Water God Palace and continued playing the game.

"You are standing in the town's fountain square. Where are you going to go next?"

"Abandoned old workshop, church cemetery, Mogo Cathedral, Star Bell Tower, Moonlight Garden, Old Hughes' clinic, chapel, Victor's morgue, forgotten castle, sacrificial field..."

To Jiang Xinghuo's surprise, there were more than twenty maps to choose from in this church town.

It’s not much worse than Dragon City.

This time he has something to do, so he puts Guandong City aside for the time being. It won’t be too late to go back after he finishes exploring this town.

Moreover, it was the first time for him to explore this kind of magical style of map, which was completely different from the previous oriental folk customs.

"You chose to explore the old abandoned workshop."

"You came to an abandoned old workshop. Although it is called an abandoned workshop, it is actually still in operation. It's just that no customers come to buy things, so over time, it has naturally become deserted."

"You walked into the workshop and saw all kinds of hunting weapons hanging in the room."

"A burly blacksmith was swinging a hammer in front of the furnace, and the clanging sound of iron filled my ears."

"Suddenly, the blacksmith stopped what he was doing and slowly turned around. You discovered that his arms and his burly body were all made of metal, shining with a cold luster under the firelight."

"You discovered the Divine Craftsman."

A Taoist master of divine craftsmanship?

Jiang Xinghuo was stunned. He didn't expect that the blacksmith in the church workshop was also a Taoist master!
"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"You have discovered the true identity of the blacksmith in front of you."

"Bai Lian (Shengong Taoist), a forging expert of the Shengong clan, was once an exile, but through the transformation of his body, he got rid of the blasphemy and defilement of the law, and also got rid of the bondage of the crazy fire."

"The cultivation level of the Shengong Clan is closely related to the body. The more flesh and blood a person preserves, the stronger their forging skills and cultivation level will be."

"On the contrary, the Taoist master who completely abandons his flesh and blood body and uses metal and stone as his body is the weakest one."

My head was dizzy again when I woke up in the morning, but after lying down for a whole morning, I suddenly wasn’t dizzy anymore. It might really be vertigo.
