An invincible journey starting from a different race

Facing the Haval Mermaid's complaint, the Siren Mermaid did not get angry. She just stared at her angry eyes and then said quietly, "If you are so brave, why don't you lift the lid and talk?"

The Haval mermaid stopped talking immediately and sat down again after a long silence.

Yes, at this moment they are not in the ocean, but in a big jar on the beach.

Because staying in the ocean for too long would leave a scent, and they couldn't completely leave the water yet, so even if they went on land, they could only stay for a short while. So the Siren Mermaid found a large jar on land, filled it with seawater, and let the three sisters get in it together.

To be honest, although this jar is not small, it is still not easy to accommodate the three mermaid sisters at the same time.

But there is no other way. The longer you stay in the ocean, the easier it is for that guy to find you. The only way to barely maintain this life is to survive as long as possible in this jar.

"You're just here bragging about being the best every day." The Siren Mermaid sighed again. "You don't even dare to leave the jar. It's Mello and I who go hunting. How dare you yell at me every day?"

The Haval mermaid's face flushed instantly. "How can this be called a powerful talker? I'm hiding here... No, I'm not hiding, I'm lurking. No, not lurking either, I'm gathering my strength! I'm conserving all my power, and when that guy comes, I'll leap up..."

"Give him a big slap with your fin?" asked the Siren Mermaid.

"...You are so annoying." After the Siren Mermaid's sarcasm, the Haval Mermaid didn't want to talk anymore.

Seeing that the second sister had failed in her challenge to the eldest sister's authority, the younger sister, the Merlot Mermaid, stepped forward again and tried to smooth things over: "Okay, eldest sister, the second sister is really not a coward, she's just a little timid..."

"You're the coward!" The exasperated Haval mermaid immediately grabbed the neck of her third sister, the Melo mermaid, and then swung back and forth, "It's all over, right? Ah? It's all over, right?"

"Wow, I'm sorry, Second Sister..."

Seeing that the Haval mermaid was bullying the Mello mermaid again, the Siren mermaid slapped her on the head in anger and said, "What else can you do besides being a bully in your own home?"

The Haval Mermaid was even more annoyed: "If you hit me again, I will run away from home and leave my hometown."

"Home?" the Siren asked. "Do we still have a home? Aren't we leaving our homeland now?"

The Haval mermaid fell silent.

Just one sentence made the three mermaid sisters fall into sorrow at the same time.

Yes, isn’t it because they have no home that they come to this place?

The sadness of leaving home quickly fermented in this small jar.

Seeing this, the mermaid, who had been crying, suddenly straightened her chest and said, "It's not completely hopeless, big sister, second sister, didn't I tell you? When I got to the shore earlier, I met a creature on the road and asked her for help. Maybe then a creature on land will come to save us."

The Siren Mermaid felt distressed when she talked about the Merlo Mermaid’s last call for help.

As mermaids, they could indeed leave the ocean for short periods of time, but if they stayed there for extended periods, they would suffer from physical discomfort and die. This was why they feared that creature, yet still dared not go ashore. The Merlo Mermaid's risky attempt to seek help nearly cost her her life, leaving the eldest Siren Mermaid feeling extremely guilty.

"What are you thinking?" the Haval mermaid continued, pouring cold water on the Merlo mermaid. "Let's not even talk about whether the creatures on land have the ability to fight that creature. Even if they do, why would they come to save us? We don't have any land currency, and we lost all the pearls we got when we fled. We have nothing to give. Why should they help us?"

The Merlot mermaid scratched her head and said, "Well, I also asked Miss Cat what I could offer as a reward if I had nothing else. Miss Cat said...if that doesn't work, I can use my body."

"With your body?" The Havard mermaid was very alert. "What's the problem?"

“That’s… this.” The Merlo mermaid gestured with her fingers.

The Harvard mermaid immediately became angry: "Do that kind of thing?!"

"Uh, sorry, second sister, I really..."

"If that kind of thing worked! Would we even need to run for our lives?!" The Haval mermaid slapped the back of the Mello mermaid's head again. "We're letting others rescue us, and then letting others have fun with us! If there really were someone like that, I'd...eat this jar right here!"

Before he finished speaking, there was a knock outside the jar: "Hello, hello, are you there?"

The arrogant Haval mermaid just a second ago suddenly hugged the Mello mermaid like a frightened rabbit. "Ah, that guy is here?!"

The Siren Mermaid was also frightened, but she still felt something. She shook her head and said, "No, it shouldn't be..."

Then, she slowly lifted the lid of the jar, cautiously revealing half of her head. She then looked at the young man in front of her, slightly startled: "Who are you?"

Aesop looked at the Siren mermaid's face carefully, then lifted the lid, looked at her upper body, and then looked at her lower body, showing a surprised expression.

"Ah, she has a pretty face, nice breasts, and nice legs..." Then, he turned around and gave a thumbs-up to the people waiting behind him, "Very good, let's go!"

Three, four, five, he doesn’t have the strength!

So, in the following time, the three mermaid sisters and the four bodyguards looked at each other and observed each other.

The three mermaid sisters thought the four-man crew looked strange. They were all land creatures, so why were they so different? Since they were all land creatures, shouldn't they all look similar? (This stems from the ocean's stereotype of the land).

The four male assassins had a very unified reaction to the three mermaid sisters.

Damn, so beautiful!

It turned out to be just as Aesop said, with good looks, nice breasts and long legs. At first glance, you would never think that she was a mermaid.

In reality, the only mermaid features they possessed were pointed, elf-like ears and long fins beneath their legs. However, these fins appeared to be a pair of specially made trousers, rather than growing from their bodies. This was completely different from the initial image the four men had imagined, of a fishtail covering their lower body.

Yes, Aesop was right.

This is very powerful.

Gan Qiu was the first to lose his temper. He stood up, patted his chest, and said, "We're here to protect you. It was you who sent the request, right? Hmm... Let me think about it, which of you is the unlucky mermaid?"

The three mermaid sisters looked at each other.

Who is the mermaid?

Stank quickly reminded from the side: "It's the Merlo Mermaid."

“Ah.” The Merlo mermaid immediately raised her hands. “It’s me, it’s me!”

The foursome's gazes immediately focused on her, and the Mermaid said happily, "Ah, you're finally here. Now we're saved."

“Hey, hey, hey, how come we’re saved?” The Haval mermaid slapped the Mello mermaid on the forehead with its fin again. “Idiot, don’t place such high hopes and trust in these guys with unknown origins!”

The mermaid Mello covered her forehead which was hit by the fish fin and said "Oh" with some grievance.

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean by this? What do you mean by not having too much hope and trust in us?" Stank said somewhat unhappily. "Didn't you issue the commission and ask us to come here to help you? Why are you acting like this now that we're all here? Be careful not to piss us off, or we'll let Ganqiu bite you."

"I'm going to bite you to death first, you bastard!" Gan Qiu said viciously to Stank.

Before the two started arguing, Jer took over the conversation and asked the three mermaid sisters, "This is the commission you posted, right? We are here to help you. Can you tell me who your enemy is? Is there anyone... well, to be more precise, a fish who wants to eat you?"

The Siren Mermaid looked at Jer in surprise: "You... actually knew that?"

The three mermaid sisters still thought that the creatures on land knew nothing about the deep sea, just like the cat girl that the Merlo mermaid met. Even though the Merlo mermaid had been seriously telling the cat girl how terrible the enemies chasing them were, the cat girl still looked nonchalant and patted her almost empty chest to assure her, "Don't worry about those trivial things. Anyway, leave this commission to me, you just need to keep it at ease. Aren't you just looking for powerful people? I can find you hundreds of them in minutes."

At the time, the Merlo Mermaid actually believed it, assuming that land creatures were truly so martial. It wasn't until she returned that the Havar Mermaid slapped her head with her fin, accusing her of being deceived by the despicable land creatures. If there were truly such powerful creatures on the mainland, wouldn't they have already descended into the sea and unified the ocean? Have you ever seen them do that?

At that time, the Merlo Mermaid was stunned by what she said, and she didn't know whether to believe her second sister or the cat girl.

But, how should I put it…

These guys in front of me really don't look very powerful. Especially that short guy, he's even smaller than me and looks really weak.

Gan Qiu suddenly became alert and murmured, "Why do I feel like someone is saying bad things about me behind my back?"

Ah, but it seems that the ability to sense danger is very strong.

"I say, can't you come out of this jar and talk?" Stank looked at the three mermaid sisters speechlessly and said, "You look like old pickled cabbage."

"What sauerkraut?" the Siren mermaid was puzzled.

"……nothing."

"We don't want to stay in this jar either," the Siren Mermaid sighed and said, "but we have to stay in the water and can't leave it for a long time. But if we stay in the ocean, that guy will sense us."

"That guy?" Aesop asked, "Is he the creature that's chasing you?"

The Siren Mermaid nodded, then leaned back slightly, allowing the four escorts to see the incantation on her flat abdomen. "It wants to eat us to gain the power in our bodies."

The four of them looked down, and then... their bodies stiffened slightly.

"Hey, hey, hey, is this really a spell?" Gan Qiu whispered in Aesop's ear, "Is there really such a spell? Why does it look so much like... a Y-mark? Did you invite them to perform again from some nightmare shop?"

Gan Qiu's words were heard by Jier who was quite knowledgeable about Y-marks. Jier said directly: "Y-marks themselves are a kind of spell. It's just a spell used for sex. There's no big problem."

After hearing what Jer said, Aesop asked the Siren Mermaid with concern: "Can your spell be used to make things difficult?"

"...Ah?" A look of confusion flashed across the Siren Mermaid's eyes. "What's that?"

Ah, these mermaids seem to have no idea how sexy they look.

Is he a sexy person on the outside but a simple person on the inside?

Everyone exchanged glances, and then seemed to have made a decision.

That is...I will definitely help you with this!

"Just say it!" Gan Qiu said arrogantly, hands on his hips, "When that big fish that wants to eat you comes to find you, we'll wait here... Oh no, it will take too long to wait. You can call him over now! Watch us take care of him in a matter of minutes, and then we can get down to business!"

The three mermaid sisters looked at each other, not knowing why Gan Qiu was so arrogant.

Maybe... he is really amazing?

To be on the safe side, the Siren Mermaid said to Gan Qiu, "Can I test your strength first?"

"Of course, no problem." Gan Qiu still put his hands on his hips, "Just come anytime you want."

The Siren mermaid nodded, then jumped out of the jar, looked down at Gan Qiu for several seconds, and then... took off Gan Qiu's pants at lightning speed.

Everyone was stunned.

The Mello mermaid stared at Gan Qiu's lower body for a long time, then covered her mouth and exclaimed.

"Ah, he has no strength."

"Not at all."

346. Who says that only length can represent strength?

"Wow, wow, wow, you bastards, you're all targeting me, you're all targeting me." Gan Qiu squatted aside, picked up a branch, and drew circles frantically in the corner with a sobbing voice. "It's not just you, the whole world is targeting me. I'd better destroy this world that is so full of malice towards me. I want to create a world where no one can be taller than me..."

The three escorts saw Gan Qiu's reaction and felt happy... oh no, pain in their hearts.

"Hey, you bastards!" Stank stood up and spoke up for his good brother Gan Qiu. "Look how badly you hurt my brother! If the world is going to be destroyed, it's all because of you guys!"

"Can you blame me for this?" Faced with the accusation, the Siren Mermaid naturally protested, "I asked him first if I could test his strength, and he agreed."

"Who knew your test would be like this?" Stank said, "No normal person would be able to accept this kind of thing!"

Facing outsiders, the naturally rebellious Haval mermaid had to stand up and speak up for her elder sister: "Who knows what you mean by normal people? In our deep sea, there are no normal people, only normal fish. What we just did was what normal mermaids would do. Isn't it basic to test each other's strength? Especially at this critical moment, how can we have time for small talk?"

...Are deep-sea mermaids' customs so unrestrained? Meeting them just to test your abilities?

The three male escorts were deeply shocked.

But Stank still insisted, "Even so, you still have to consider the habits of us land creatures. We believe in reserve and that everything has value! You can say my brother's strength isn't particularly obvious, but you can't just say he has no strength at all!"

The Merlo Mermaid said aggrievedly, "But I just looked carefully, and there's nothing there, not even a trace of it."

Gan Qiu on the other side drew circles faster.

"How could there be none at all? If there were none at all, would he still be a man?" Stank said. "There's clearly a little bit. And as the saying goes, essence is in the concentrate. Small things are cute too! Even toothpicks can be used to pick teeth, and picking teeth can be enjoyable! Don't judge a hero by his own merits!"

Gan Qiu increased the speed of his circles again, and the branches of the tree were about to catch fire from the friction.

The three mermaids from the deep sea didn't understand Stank's proverbial parallelism at all. They could only stubbornly say, "In our deep sea, an inch longer is an inch stronger. Even a tiny difference is an irreparable gap. Not to mention that gentleman has absolutely nothing. We three sisters have seen it all. He's completely bare, nothing at all. Do you know how long the creature chasing us is?"

"How long can it be?" Stank scoffed. "Could it be wrapped around the waist?"

"It's all over my body," the Siren Mermaid said seriously, "It's like a painting on my body, and it's constantly growing."

All over the body?

Everyone was shocked. Even Gan Qiu stopped drawing circles involuntarily and turned around to stare at the three mermaid sisters.

Yes, is their vision too short-sighted?

That, that thing... can it be all over the fucking body?

Everyone subconsciously lowered their heads to look at themselves, and then tried to imagine what the image would be like if it spread all over their body, and then everyone's expression changed.

Just thinking about it makes me feel so barren and scary.

"So, scared now?" The Haval mermaid folded her arms across her chest and snorted. "Now you know how terrifying those who are chasing us are."

...That's true. If that thing really existed, it would be so barren and terrifying no matter how you look at it.

But here comes the problem...

"Even if it's really that long, what does it have to do with us?" Jer said, "Aren't we here to help you deal with it? If so, shouldn't the first consideration be strength? Does the length of that thing have anything to do with strength?"

"Of course it does. How could it not be related?" the Haval Merman continued, "Isn't the length of that thing a symbol of strength?"
