Chapter 522 Mermaid (Fourth update, please vote)

After removing the head and scales, she took out a slender short-handled stone knife wrapped in thin red copper from her arms.

"Swish."

The stone knife was inserted into the belly of the big fish and pulled down. With a flexible movement of her wrist, the internal organs in the belly of the big fish were taken out.

After doing all this, Xin held the big fish with both hands. The hot totem power emerged from her hands and began to burn the big fish.

The totem power spread on her hands, and she could see a phantom shrouding her palm. She was very familiar with the phantom because she climbed on it many times when she was a child. It was the claw of Ba Xia.

After that night, her totem power was out of control. From time to time, the phantom of Ba Xia appeared, which made her extremely annoyed.

She doesn't like totem spirits, because all her skills were taught by Shi himself, and she has a strong control over totem power, which is one of the reasons why she is so strong.

If the power is converted into totem spirits, then the method of controlling totem power taught by Shi will become useless, and her strength will be greatly reduced.

Just as she was looking at her hands in anger, a "gugugu" sound suddenly came from the ice hole. Xin immediately threw the big fish aside and picked up the red copper stone spear on the ground.

She has seen this situation many times. When the beasts in the water feel the broken ice, they will swarm over.

"Bang."

She kicked the luggage beside her far away to prevent the beasts from breaking the ice and taking away her gifts during the battle.

She originally had two large pieces of luggage like this, but the first one accidentally fell into the water and sank, and she could never find it again.

"Swoosh."

A figure emerged from the water, and Xin swung her right hand back, ready to throw the spear in her hand.

"Beep~~"

A shrill cry made Xin's movements pause for a moment, and when she saw the creature in front of her clearly, she stopped moving completely. The

creature that emerged from the water was very strange, she had grass-green hair, dark brown eyes, white shoulders, plump buttocks and a slender waist.

Below this, what was connected was not a pair of slender legs, but a pink fish body and a fish tail of mixed colors.

"Beep~beep~~"

After the fishman saw Xin clearly, he turned his head and called a few times below, and then several mermaids came out of the ice hole.

These mermaids whooshed out with fish bones in their hands. They looked at Xin warily for a while, and then talked to each other in a "beep" tone.

Xin remained sufficiently alert but did not act rashly.

Although these creatures looked strange, they were obviously intelligent and should be species living in the sea.

"Who... are you?"

The leading merman said in an ancient language.

Xin knew this language, he had learned it, it was the language of the Dragon Tribe, it was about to disappear on the mainland, but was required by the God of Fire to be passed down as part of the culture, she had learned it.

"Fire Tribe Alliance, Ritu Totem Shaman, Xin."

Xin replied in the Dragon Tribe language, but was vigilant and did not put down his weapon.

"Beep beep~~"

"Beep beep~~"

The mermaids started to communicate with each other again, and there seemed to be some surprise in their words.

"Who are you?"

Xin asked in the Dragon Tribe language.

The leading mermaid immediately stopped the whispering communication, turned around, and said slowly and stutteringly: "I am a shaman of the Shell Mermaid Tribe, my name is Ying."

Ying was because Xin did not understand the meaning of this word, so she imagined it based on the pronunciation.

"What are you doing here?"

Xin asked, glancing at the two small shells on the mermaid's chest.

"We are looking for traces of the enemy, what about you?"

the mermaid replied.

"I am tracking the enemy."

Xin said, inserting the copper stone spear behind her body, and turned to look for her own food.

She had been running for many days, and fatigue and hunger troubled her. She had no intention of getting entangled with these mermaids. The

mermaid's enemies were in the sea, and her enemies were on the ice. There was no need for them to communicate.

After retrieving the big fish that had just been thrown away, Xin cut off another piece, heated it with the power of the totem, and ate it slowly.

She always kept a certain distance from the mermaids and remained vigilant enough.

In fact, in her opinion, these mermaids are not a threat to her. If a fight really breaks out, she should be able to knock down all of them within ten.

Several mermaids over there communicated for a while, and finally the female mermaid who was the leader walked towards Xin.

Xin immediately put down the fish meat, picked up the copper stone spear, and looked at her vigilantly.

"You can speak the language of the Dragon Tribe, which means you are our friend. The Dragon Tribe is a friend of our Shellfish Tribe."

The mermaid said with a smile.

Xin also smiled back at her, but then said coldly: "The Fire Tribe Alliance and the Dragon Tribe are enemies, and they were driven out by us."

The mermaid's smile froze. This answer made her very embarrassed and she didn't know what to say for a moment.

"They should have passed by here more than 20 years ago, that's when we drove them away."

Xin sat down on the ground again, put the copper spear beside her, picked up the fish and ate it.

If it were in the past, she would be too lazy to communicate with these mermaids, but she did feel lonely without communicating with people for a long time.

"I don't know the exact time, I was still young at that time, why did you fight?"

The mermaid seemed to be very curious about Xin, and asked with the fish tail supporting its body.

"They attacked us first, and then they fought with other tribes. In the end, we joined the battle and drove them away."

Xin said simply. She only read that period of history from the beast skin scroll, and didn't know much.

"The Dragon Tribe I saw was not a warlike tribe, especially their leader, who was very polite."

The fishman said with some memories in his eyes.

"That's because he is from our Fire Tribe. If he was a native of the Dragon Tribe, you wouldn't think so."

Xin replied with a pout.

In the beast skin scroll she saw, the description of the Dragon Tribe was not very good.

Warlike, barbaric, rude, selfish, for such a tribe, she even wondered how the Dragon Tribe occupied this fertile land in the center of the continent.

Maybe it's just as the beast skin scroll said: powerful.

Strong power can allow them to consolidate their ruling position, but this rule does not apply in the Fire Tribe Alliance.

In the alliance, many powerful tribes are not as important as the Ox Tribe, and the Fire God once valued the Ox Tribe more than the Fire Tribe.

At the beginning, the Ox Tribe was small in number, and it was the Fire God who first encouraged the Fire Tribe to move to the Ox Tribe and participate in farming, which laid the foundation for the prosperity of the Ox Tribe.

"Aren't you enemies? Why did your people become the leaders of the Dragon Tribe?"

the fishman asked curiously.

Xin shrugged and told the story she saw in the beast skin scroll. The fishman listened with relish. Her peers behind her called her several times, but she did not leave.

After the story was told and the food was finished, Xin clapped her hands and prepared to find another place to rest.

"I need to chase my enemies, and you need to chase your enemies too. I'm leaving now. See you again."

Xin said, picking up his huge suitcase and preparing to leave.

"Okay, thank you for telling me your story. In return, if the Merman tribe gives you trouble, you can show them this shell, and they will know that you are a friend of our Merman tribe."

The Merman said, taking a shell from his chest and handing it to Xin.

Xin thought for a moment, took it with his hand, and said, "I'll give you a piece of advice. It's best not to go on the ice unless necessary. There are several tribes that betrayed our alliance walking on the ice. If you accidentally meet them, you can't beat them."

The merman was stunned and asked anxiously, "Among the three tribes, are there any tribes that use blood sacrifices?"

Xin was stunned, and then asked in surprise, "Have you seen the Blood Shadow Tribe? Where are they?"

It is too difficult to find the enemy on the ice of the East China Sea. Xin has already prepared to chase them to the main road in the east and does not want to find clues here.

"They are our enemies. They killed the people of the Sea Mermaid Tribe and are wanted by the Sea Mermaids. We are helping to find them."

The mermaid said, stretching out his hand and pointing to the east.

"A merman saw them nearby, so we came to take a look. We didn't expect to meet you."

Xin was surprised, and most of the mental and physical fatigue disappeared in an instant.

"Are they nearby?"

Xin asked a little fiercely, which scared the mermaid.

"I'm sorry, I have a deep hatred for them."

"What hatred?"

The mermaid's curiosity was overflowing again.

"They assassinated my father. Are they nearby?"

Xin couldn't help but ask again.

"You are so brave. You dare to hunt down an entire tribe by yourself. According to the information we received, they are nearby, from here to the area in that wind direction."

The mermaid's hand was still pointing to the east. Xin nodded, and without saying anything, he accelerated forward.

Her speed exploded, and she ran past the mermaid Ying like lightning, thudding on the ice, and quickly headed east.

"Beep beep~~"

"Beep beep~"

The mermaids looked at the distant Xin in surprise, and asked the mermaid Ying what happened.

"The blood sacrifice tribe is also her enemy. She went to chase the enemy, and we will go too."

The mermaid Ying answered in mermaid language, jumped on the ice a few times, and dived into the ice hole with a whoosh, and began to chase Xin in the water.

On land, their speed was very slow, but in the water, they burst out with a speed that was no less than Xin's, and even faster than Xin's speed, and soon caught up with Xin.

In this way, Xin ran on the ice, and the mermaid Ying and her peers followed below, running all the way to the east.

The wind and snow on the ice were stronger than on the land. As Xin ran, the snowflakes hit her face, giving her a stinging feeling.

But she didn't care about that. All she wanted now was to catch up with the Blood Shadow Tribe and kill these enemies.

She ran faster and faster, and the totem power on her feet slowly transformed into the figure of Ba Xia's claws, which continued to increase her speed.

Slowly, her speed completely surpassed the mermaids below, and she disappeared from their sight all the way to the east.
