When Shen Jue woke up, she found herself adrift on the vast ocean. Beneath her was a small wooden raft, and in her hand, a fishing rod. Feeling utterly bewildered, Shen Jue looked at the boundless ...
Chapter 30 Merfolk
The legendary merfolk usually live in groups, and it's likely that this game system has adopted this setting.
If you only see one merman in the sea, the first person to come and investigate is probably just a sentry from their tribe.
Before dying, the merman let out an extremely shrill, hoarse cry, as if calling for reinforcements.
If that's the case, then it's troublesome.
Open the public chat and see if other players have encountered this situation.
Some players in the server chat noticed something was wrong.
Zhang Meng: "Wait a minute, something feels off. If we could escape the tsunami so easily, then why call it a massacre?"
Chu Yue: "Miss, don't be too sensitive. Think positively. At least you survived."
Su Sheng: "She's right. Have you noticed something watching you from near the raft?"
Zhao Zhixiao: "Stop talking. The more you talk, the more I feel like my raft isn't safe anymore."
Jiang Mo: "I...I can say that this terrifying creature that's been staring at me has surfaced and is trying to climb back up. Waaah, I'm so scared. [Image JPG]"
Zhao Zhixiao: "Ahhhh! Why did you post this picture? Wait, Fellow Daoist Jiang Mo, how did you take this photo? I don't see a camera function in the game system panel!"
Jiang Mo: "I was bored, so I made a camera. The pictures taken by this camera can be uploaded to the chat of the server. If you study it a bit more, you can learn how to make it."
The players engaged in a lively discussion on this topic, becoming more and more enthusiastic as they talked.
Jiang Chengxue: "Look everyone, what's this? I just took a picture by accident, it's a JPG."
Zhao Zhixiao: "It looks like a pair of eyes."
Chu Yue: "Those are eyes. Doesn't the flash of light in the sea look like its tail?"
He Xiaosheng: "The upper body is human, and the lower body is a tail. Isn't that a mermaid?"
Jiang Mo: "Really? But I don't think so. @Jiangchengxue, are you still there? Send another picture."
As a result, this question yielded no further results, and Jiang Chengxue's profile picture went black.
This represents death.
What could quickly breach the raft's defenses and cause death?
Chu Yue: "A mermaid, it must be a mermaid."
Mao Ning: "What mermaid? She's not beautiful at all. She's more like a merman. Look at her, she's so ugly. Can she be considered a mermaid?"
Mao Ning: "Wait, it seems there's more than one merman, it's...it's a whole group!!! They're charging towards me."
As soon as Mao Ning finished sending the message, her profile picture went dark.
Another one has died!
After that, people in the chat room would be chatting happily one second, and then suddenly disappear the next. When you clicked on them, their avatars were blacked out.
Moreover, all of them were living people who died.
The identity of the murderer is self-evident: the merman.
Chu Yue: "Mermaids! Mermaids! Mermaids must be the NPCs chasing the players."
Shortly after the tsunami, another crisis struck.
Many people even let their guard down after surviving the tsunami, and, exhausted, fell asleep.
While the players are weakened, let the merfolk who come with the tsunami get a share of the spoils.
This game system has a clever plan.
Shen Jue didn't deliberately walk to the fence, but even so, she could still sense the gazes of several creatures watching her.
Those are merfolk hidden beneath the sea.
A voice kept telling the merman that if he killed this human, he would be free.
Unfortunately, the human's raft was too heavily fortified, and they couldn't break through its defenses anytime soon.
Shen Jue wasn't worried at all; in fact, she was even more concerned about what food to prepare for Qing Feng.
That's good, Qingfeng won't have to worry about food anymore.
With her defense of 10,000+, she can definitely withstand it.
