"Yes." Rusalka said without hesitation, "If you can help me protect my people from Reinhardt, then..."
Rusalka gently placed her hand on her majestic human heart... oh no, fish heart.
"This one... ahem, this pair of things, is yours." Rusalka still felt a little strange when she said this, "But you can't regret it."
"I won't regret it." Aesop shook his head and said, "If it's just to protect your people from that giant octopus, this price is enough."
"Oh..." Rusalka narrowed her eyes slightly, "It seems that you can provide other services."
Aesop didn't say anything, just looked at Rusalka.
But Rusalka already understood what he meant, so she took a deep breath and asked.
"So, what's the price for helping me kill Reinhardt?"
Aesop did not directly answer Rusalka's question, but instead asked, "That depends on what kind of price you can see."
"Is that so..." Rusalka pondered for a moment, her eyes growing firmer. "If you can truly help me kill Reinhard and avenge my clan, then no matter when or where you can summon him, my sword and my head will bow down for you. What do you think?"
Aesop nodded: "I think it's okay. Happy trading."
Rusalka smiled slightly: "I hope to see you again."
As they spoke, the three mermaid sisters could no longer hold on, and Rusalka disappeared in a white light, and then turned back into the three exhausted mermaid sisters.
The three escorts who witnessed all this fell into deep thought.
"Did I just... witness a dirty flesh trade?" Gan Qiu asked.
"Do you feel dirty?" Jer asked.
"If it happened to me, I wouldn't think it was dirty." Gan Qiu looked at Aesop, his eyes full of envy and jealousy. "But if it happened to someone else, especially Aesop, then..."
"Dirty!" Stank said, "Pooh!" "It's so fucking dirty!"
The three mermaid sisters here didn't know what happened, they just vaguely felt...
"Did we merge successfully just now?!" the Merlo mermaid said excitedly, "I seem to sense the presence of Lady Rusalka."
"I feel it too." The Haval mermaid was also very excited.
"Indeed." The Siren Mermaid nodded and said happily, "We have indeed successfully merged. The one who was here just now was indeed Lady Rusalka."
The Merlo and Havard mermaids were extremely excited. They had originally thought that after leaving the deep sea, they would never see Lady Rusalka again.
But now, they have once again brought Rusalka back into this world.
Although they knew that even if Rusalka were to descend again, she would still be no match for Reinhardt... at least there was hope, wasn't there? Even the smallest hope was still hope.
Moreover, the three mermaid sisters also knew who was responsible for all this, so they looked at Aesop again. This time, even the Haval mermaid had no doubt in her eyes, only a little bit of unnaturalness.
If we can summon Lady Rusalka, then maybe there is a way to save them?
Aesop also said directly to the three mermaid sisters: "I have reached an agreement with Rusalka and will help you get rid of Reinhardt. But the prerequisite is that you must become more powerful than you are now and prolong the time of Rusalka's arrival."
Seeing that Rusalka had successfully arrived, the three mermaid sisters were naturally full of fighting spirit.
"Of course!" The Merlo mermaid clenched her fists tightly, her pretty face flushed with excitement. "Even with your help, this is still our own battle! We will definitely practice hard to make Lady Rusalka's arrival last longer!"
Aesop nodded and said, "That's good. You need to hold on for at least twenty-four minutes."
"Twenty-four minutes?" The Siren mermaid gasped. The three sisters had just tried their best, but could only hold out for five minutes. Now they had to quadruple that time, almost quintuple it. Honestly, this was definitely not an easy task. But as the third sister, the Merlo mermaid, had said, this was their own battle. If they couldn't even do this, how could they have the nerve to ask Aesop for help? "Although it's a little difficult, we will try our best."
Even the most rebellious Haval mermaid agreed with the Siren mermaid's point of view, and secretly made up his mind to practice hard and reach the standard mentioned by Aesop before Reinhard arrived here.
However, there was one thing she didn't quite understand: "Why does it have to be 24 minutes? Does this number have any special meaning?"
This is not an integer either.
The Havard mermaid's words reminded the Siren mermaid, so she turned to look at Aesop and asked, "Is this Lady Rusalka's request?"
"No." Aesop shook his head, and then answered seriously, "Because I can only last twenty-four minutes at most."
He will take charge of hell.
Twenty-four minutes, that's four hundred and eighty Qiu's strength!
This was Aesop's current limit, and he needed to be in better shape to achieve it. However, compared to the initial strength of Jiqiuzhili, this improvement was already a qualitative leap.
There is nothing special about it, it’s just that I’m skilled at it.
This sentence means that even when that "she" was not around, Aesop would not give up training himself with his hands. He honed his skills every day, improving his technique until his true strength reached a level that Gan Qiu could not reach.
Thinking of this, Aesop couldn't help but feel a little proud of himself, then turned his head and looked at Gan Qiu.
Gan Qiu suddenly became alert.
"Even though you didn't say anything..." Gan Qiu looked at Aesop and said expressionlessly, "But my fists are already hard. If you look again, I will beat you to death."
The three mermaid sisters had no idea what Aesop meant when he said that he could only hold on for twenty-four minutes.
They could only guess that when they merged into Rusalka, Aesop would have to expend strength to maintain it, and this strength could only last for twenty-four minutes at most.
There is no way. For the three mermaid sisters who live in the deep sea and have not been poisoned by the yellow waste on land, some things are indeed not so easy to think of.
"But, but, how should we train?" asked the Merlo Mermaid. "Mother never taught us."
Hearing the question from the Merlot Mermaid, Aesop looked at the Siren Mermaid, wanting to see what this elder sister had in mind.
The Siren Mermaid said with some embarrassment, "That... I'm not quite sure. Before we met Reinhardt, our numbers were still quite large. If we all merged, it would have been enough to delay Lady Rusalka's arrival for a long time. But the fusion of the three of us has never happened before, and we haven't been told how to delay Lady Rusalka's arrival individually."
After hearing what the Siren Mermaid said, Aesop thought for a moment and asked, "How did you feel during the fusion?"
The three mermaid sisters exchanged glances before the Siren mermaid said, "It's just that my body is very... sensitive."
"Sensitive?" Aesop asked. "Isn't it pain or lack of strength or something?"
"Of course there are," the Siren replied, "but the most important thing is sensitivity. Every part of our body becomes... very fragile. At this time, our senses are the same as Lady Rusalka's. When Lady Rusalka is attacked, we also feel pain, and the longer it lasts, the more severe the pain becomes. Even when we held on to the end, even a gust of wind from the sea would make us feel very uncomfortable, as if our whole body was... being tickled by something."
There is such a thing.
After listening to the Siren Mermaid's description, Jer said thoughtfully, "It sounds like there's something wrong with the nervous system, amplifying the senses of every part of the body, ultimately to an unacceptable level. It seems a bit difficult to deal with."
Stank spread his hands and said, "It sounds like something that can't be solved. How can I train this thing? Isn't this just a natural sensitive constitution?"
Although no one said it explicitly, the meaning was there - to persuade Aesop to give up.
Don't even think about it, there's no chance.
Five minutes will be enough.
You still want to have a thrilling 24-minute battle with a mermaid like that?!
Don't even think about it!
But in the face of everyone's persuasion, Aesop did not give up. Instead, after pondering for a long time, he finally came up with a solution.
He turned to look at Gan Qiu, but before he could say anything, Gan Qiu immediately became alert: "Why are you looking at me again?!"
Aesop replied: "I have a bold idea."
"Why do you have such a bold idea again? Every time you have a bold idea, it's not a good thing." Gan Qiu was still very alert. "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Aesop said honestly, "I think you have some tools that can help them exercise."
"...You're crazy! How could I possibly have tools to help them exercise?" Gan Qiu said angrily. "And if there really is a tool that can treat sensitive constitutions, why wouldn't I use it myself?"
Aesop did not answer, but looked at Gan Qiu calmly.
Facing Aesop's gaze, Gan Qiu seemed to understand something, and his eyes widened little by little: "You TM...you are not referring to that, are you?"
that?
Which one are you referring to?
Stank and Jer were still a little confused.
But I saw Aesop had already nodded.
"...Isn't your idea too bold?" Gan Qiu said, "Do you think those things can really be used in a place like this?"
Aesop nodded again: "I think it's okay."
Gan Qiu didn't know what to say anymore, and Stank and Jer beside him were already getting impatient: "What the hell is this? Take it out and let us see it."
Even though he was forced like this, Gan Qiu really didn't want to take it out, but there was no way. He knew these B guys very well. If he refused again, they would snatch it away.
So, Gan Qiu had no choice but to take down his luggage and open it in front of everyone.
After seeing what was in the luggage, Stank and Jer immediately fell silent.
Because what’s inside is all sorts of… tools.
"Why do you..." It was unknown how long it took before Stank broke the silence. "Why do you carry these things with you?"
Gan Qiu coughed twice and said, "You also know my identity..."
"You used it yourself?"
"Of course not!" Gan Qiu suddenly became anxious. "I'm a sadist, not a masochist! So, carrying these weapons with me is normal, right? It should be understandable, right?"
Aesop, Stank, and Jer didn't answer.
"Hey! Don't be silent! Don't be silent at a time like this! Tell me quickly, you can understand me! Then we can still be brothers, tell me quickly!" Gan Qiu looked desperate, even picking out the longest weapon from among the many weapons, pointing at them and saying, "If you don't understand me, I will die with you."
"Ah, I understand."
"Ah, I agree."
"I understand and agree," Aesop asked, "but why are all your weapons still brand new? Is there no one willing to use them with you?"
At that moment, Gan Qiu fell into silence for a minute.
A minute later, he threw the weapon down and said, "Whatever. I'm tired. Destroy it. These things are given to you. Do with them as you wish. I'm going to sleep."
So, this whole package of "weapons" belonged to Aesop.
Then, Aesop brought the package of weapons to the three mermaid sisters. The three mermaid sisters stared at the package of strange wooden products with curious eyes.
"What...are these?" asked the Siren Mermaid.
Aesop replied: "This is the tool that allows you to practice."
He began to introduce them one by one: "This is the natural wood dragon beast", "This is the natural two-headed dragon", "This is the natural Tigger", "This is the natural chain".
Then he said, "These are magical props. As long as you inject magic power into them, they will move on their own, like now."
Aesop injected magic power into the Natural Wood Dragon Beast, and the Natural Wood Dragon Beast came to life, showing its fangs and claws at the three mermaid sisters, scaring them greatly.
"As long as you can defend yourself against the attacks of these weapons, your training will be considered a success," Aesop said.
"So... where will these weapons attack?"
Aesop replied: "We will attack wherever there is weakness."
The three mermaid sisters exchanged glances with each other. Although they could see fear in each other's eyes, they all knew that they had no way to retreat.
"We will try our best!" the Siren Mermaid said firmly, "We will definitely hold on for twenty-four minutes!"
"Don't worry." Aesop gave the three mermaid sisters a thumbs up, and then said encouragingly, "I will always be by your side watching over you and helping you!"
Stank and Ganqiu, who were standing by, lit cigarettes almost at the same time after hearing what Aesop said.
"Do you think Aesop will go to hell after his death?" asked Jer.
"Yes and no."
"How to say?"
"Because I think..." Stank said darkly, "He will take charge of Hell."
Sanwujiu will show you what Ganqiu speed is.
In the next few days, the three mermaid sisters began to practice madly.
From the very beginning, they had anticipated that this training would not be easy, because those magic props did not look like they were easy to deal with.
But what they didn't expect was that the actual situation was more difficult than they had imagined.
Each of these magic props has its own characteristics.
For example, the Natural Wooddramon had the longest body of all the items, and its attack power and depth were the greatest when injected with magic power. Even if the mermaids knew where it was going to attack and prepared for defense, they were helpless. After one or two charges, they would be completely defeated and forced into a humiliating surrender.
