However, because the stories told by the children were too bizarre, although they wanted to believe them, they felt that they needed to investigate further.
Then, the adults in the town noticed something strange.
However, even though the townspeople noticed that something was wrong with the outsiders, they only raised their guard slightly.
There is nothing that can be done about it. After all, the townspeople are just ordinary people and it is impossible for them to guard against such things.
But the main reason is that they don’t actually think these things need to be concealed, they just feel a little embarrassed to say it out loud.
After all, it is a shameful thing for them that their compatriots would become strange and go to live on the coast, and it is not convenient to tell outsiders about it.
But since my original illness will disappear after I become like that and I can live a normal life, I am actually not very resistant anymore.
After all, after so many years of getting along, the people in the town have completely understood each other, even though there will be a period of time when one's brain is not so smart.
But after returning to normal, apart from being soaked in water all year round, their lives will not be much different from now.
Especially those townspeople who had undergone changes, none of them aged naturally, and several even looked younger than before.
What these townspeople didn't expect was that they had continued to live here for so many years even after seeing the fish-man.
But one day, after those travelers discovered something was wrong, they encountered a huge disaster.
It was a very ordinary early morning for the townspeople, and it happened when most of them were asleep.
A group of strangely dressed and armed 'gangsters' broke into their town.
Most of the residents were removed from the house and the scene was disguised as a common robbery.
They then broke into the gathering place on the coast and captured and tied up the residents who had no idea what was happening like wild beasts.
Chapter 298 Miss Mermaid
"You want to help them? Then go ahead......"
All the gods and their ministers seemed to have some idea of what was happening on the shore.
But this is not his world after all, and those people outside survived only by chance.
In particular, his research was almost completed, and it was almost time for him to leave.
So he originally wanted to let those "gangsters" outside stay here forever.
But when he found that the mermaid he had created before showed extreme concern for the plight of those people in the outside world, he gave up his original approach.
Since this 'mermaid' wants to take the initiative to help those people, just let her go.
After all, he doesn't have much time to stay here, and he can help for a while but not for a lifetime.
And those people outside are not actually in desperate situation.
Because those people contributed to his research this time, the fish he eats on a daily basis already contains some of his research results here.
Even if their original bodies perish, the foreign objects contained in their bodies can still send those people to the dreamlike, dilapidated village that the first few people visited.
This is a mixture of the brain field here, all the accessories made by the gods and generals during this period, and a bunch of miscellaneous stuff.
Most of it is similar to a dream world, but some of it exists in reality. Overall, it is a world between existence and non-existence.
Originally, he planned to let those people die and go to that dream world to make their own choices.
But after discovering how much the mermaid cared, he decided to integrate the mermaid with that world as well.
In this way, it would be like having an extra special helper for the people in that town.
None of the gods, generals or ministers cared much about what they were going to do after that.
He planned to use this period of time to complete the final steps, similar to encapsulating the coded code.
In this way, in the future he will be able to transform a person into his current researched appearance with just one click according to the predetermined steps, which is quick and convenient.

"I don't like this kind of work."
In the light of a fire somewhere in the town, a middle-aged man with a scar on his face and holding a heavy sword was sitting on the steps of a house with an unhappy look on his face.
Opposite him, there was also a man holding a heavy sword, but this man looked younger.
"Don't complain. These guys are really special. Look at that one. His body structure is obviously different from that of humans. He even has webbed hands."
"Help, help, why are you doing this, why......"
When this man pointed at a guy who was tied up and trembling all over, the man being pointed at trembled and looked very confused.
"Tsk, see... That's why I don't like them. Apart from their bodies being different, they are no different from ordinary people."
Such a humane performance made the scarred man even more unhappy.
He didn't come here for this kind of thing, he wanted an opponent who was more like a monster.
He would definitely feel more comfortable if these townspeople suddenly grew sharp teeth and sharp mouths, their fighting power increased dramatically, and they rushed towards them roaring.
Even if that would get most of the team injured or even killed, it would still be better than feeling like you're doing something really asshole.
"Great Almighty God, help us, help us...ah!!!"
A terrified townsman clenched his fists, knelt on the ground under the men's weapons, and held a small statue and continued to pray.
However, his action was noticed, and one team member kicked the opponent's palm, causing him to let go of his hand in pain, revealing the statue inside.
"Hey, this is a bit too much..."
"This is a must. What if the other party prepares some evil magic? You are too kind. You must not be soft-hearted when dealing with such a guy."
"That being said, these guys are very different from the ones we dealt with before..."
“That’s the rule.”
"well…………"
Regardless of what Scarface was thinking, his companions still subdued all the residents of the town according to the fixed method, using quite brutal means.
But because relatively few people resisted, not many died.
"All-powerful God, a local belief? Does this kind of god really exist......"
Unwilling to do anything that looked stupid, Scarface turned his head and saw the statue that the man was holding on the ground.
He picked up the palm-shaped statue, looked at the eye in the middle of his palm, and shook his head helplessly.
Due to the poor transportation in this era, every other area may have a local god.
Although this statue with an eye in the center of the palm did not have a human-shaped god like those in other regional beliefs, there were indeed some rather strange beliefs occasionally, and he did not think much about it.
"what?"
However, when Scarface wanted to throw the statue away again, he didn't know if it was an illusion.
For a moment, he felt that the eye in the center of the palm sculpture seemed to be looking at him.
Even though we are relying on torches for lighting, the light is very dim and it is normal to make mistakes.
But the feeling at that moment gave Scarface some kind of very strange touch, which prevented him from throwing away the statue immediately.
“&……¥#…………”
"what?"
"what happened?"
"There seems to be some sound."
"Something is wrong, be alert!!!"
At this time, the "bandits" who thought they had finished their work and were about to take all the townspeople away heard some strange noises coming from afar.
The sound was too unusual. They had never heard such a sound before. They couldn't even identify what was making the sound.
However, as the sound gradually grew louder, the source of the sound gradually approached them.
A bad feeling gradually came over me, a sense of crisis that was hard to describe.
It's like someone who has never seen or heard of a poisonous snake will understand that this thing is dangerous the first time he sees it.
Everyone present, even if they didn't understand what the sound meant, could instinctively understand the danger.
"Who is this voice?"
"Could it be that person?"
"I know who is blessing us."
"We are saved. We are saved."
Unlike the bandits, the townspeople, who had heard similar noises in the past, instantly realized that the sound was coming from the merman they had seen before.
Even though they were once afraid of mermaids, over the years, the two sides have lived in peace across the sea, and their attitude towards mermaids has gone from fear to awe.
At this moment, realizing that the other party seemed to be coming to help him, his admiration for the mermaid reached its peak.
Chapter 299 Scar Face
"Sure enough, it won't end so easily."
"Mermaid? She seems to be singing..."
"Cover your ears. After all, according to legend, the mermaid's singing can be considered a weapon."
Most of these 'bandits' were a little flustered by the sudden appearance of the singing.
However, the leaders were not too worried. They had already doubted the smooth operation, and when they saw the abnormality finally appear, they became calmer than before.
After all, compared to the dangers that have already occurred, the unknown is the most terrifying.
"The sound came from the direction of the sea. Team Two, follow me and go meet the mermaid."
“What about these townspeople?”
"If they resist or try to escape... you know what I'm doing."
In the darkness, a group of people separated from these "bandits".
The leader was a bearded old man with a flintlock rifle hanging around his waist. He led a whole team of members and galloped towards the sea.
"The mermaid is in the sea, right? Captain, are you just going to rush over there like this?"
When these people rushed over, one of the team members who stayed where they were had some doubts.
Even though it was pitch dark, judging from the distance of the sound, the individual making the sound should be farther out at sea.
"New member? Then watch carefully. Team Two is different from the other teams."
“No matter how different it is…Huh?! The captain and the others can actually run on water?”
The team member originally thought that there would not be much difference between people, but when he continued to observe the group of people rushing over, he found that the group of people rushing over did not make any sound of entering the water at all.
Instead, there were some strange sounds, like someone stepping on water through something.
Combined with the vaguely visible human figures, the man instantly realized that those people rushing over were actually all walking on water.
"After all, the intelligence this time was easy to obtain. These people in town didn't hide anything, and we got a lot of support from headquarters... If your team is interested in the specific methods, you can also apply to join the second team."
"I will think about it."
While the two were chatting, the sound of rough waves was heard in the distance.
There was the sound of huge waves surging and the strange singing, and the two groups of people in the night seemed to be in a stalemate.
But as time passed, others on the shore began to get anxious.
"It's been taking too long. Are mermaids that difficult to deal with?"
"Normal mermaids wouldn't let us go out."
"What should we do? It might be dangerous if we delay any further."
"I can't help it. Although I don't really want to do this, if I don't do it, those people might die here..."
When Scarface on the shore realized that those people on the sea might not be able to capture the mermaid, he let out a long sigh.
If possible, he really didn't want to get involved in such a trivial matter, but if those people were killed, he would definitely be held accountable in the end.
