Josh dodged the attacks of several chopsticks and forks with difficulty, and quickly squeezed into a seat to magnify his body.
A bighead carp sitting on her left screamed, "Ah! The food has become a spirit!"
The fathead fish on the right rolled his eyes and said, "Idiot, this is a red jellyfish. I told you to wear glasses when you go out, but you didn't. What's the difference between you and a blind person?"
The fathead fish on the left said angrily: "What do you know! Wearing glasses makes me look like a human, which is too ugly and damages my image. So many people come here for dinner today, I don't want to wear glasses!"
The fathead fish on the right sneered: "You look like a human, it doesn't matter whether you wear glasses or not."
Josh had to interrupt their argument: "Who organized today's party?"
The fathead fish on the left: "The organizer is Grandpa Mermaid, isn't he sitting right there? You didn't wear glasses when you went out?"
Hearing this, Josh looked at the largest skeleton on the other side of the long table.
No wonder his head looks like a human, it turns out he is a mermaid, and his upper body looks like human bones.
The lower body was hidden behind, blocked by the densely packed monsters, and the mermaid's tail could not be seen at all.
Qiao Xi nodded in understanding: "We haven't had this kind of gathering for a long time, right? Why are we suddenly getting together today?"
The fathead fish on the right said sarcastically: "Are you new here? You don't even know this. You are so ignorant!"
The fathead fish on the left rolled his eyes and said to Qiao Xi, "Ignore him. He relies on the fact that he once met the king from a distance. Since then, he has been very arrogant to everyone he meets."
Josh asked again in a good-tempered manner: "Then if we have a meal here now, won't we be discovered?"
The fathead fish on the left said, "What are you afraid of? I heard that everyone on the boat died! Even if they didn't die, the king has returned today, and we don't have to be afraid anymore!"
Josh frowned slightly. What did they mean by the king's return?
She then asked, "Since the king is coming back, why are we hiding here for dinner?"
When she asked this, several monsters nearby looked at her, as if she was asking some strange question.
A long-necked fish suddenly stretched its head over and sniffed her again and again: "You are not a human, are you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, more monsters looked over.
Josh raised his electric tentacle without panic: "I was just born not long ago. My mother hid me. I don't know much about what's going on outside. She doesn't let me go out to play."
The long-necked monster stared at her sharply again, his eyes rolling around: "What about your mother?"
Qiao Xi showed a pitiful look: "He was caught on the ship and hasn't come back yet."
Hearing this, the fathead fish on the left couldn't help it anymore, and took Qiao Xi into his arms, staring at the fish angrily: "You are crazy! How old is she? What are you doing? Bullying a child? We sea people must unite, do you understand unity?!"
Upon hearing this, the long-necked fish retracted its neck.
It still doesn't count, and he secretly slapped himself twice. Why was he so aggressive to ask a child about his sad story, what a beast!
Josh covered the smile in his eyes, it seems the buff is still there.
She has a "Closeness of the Sea Clan" buff on her, which I thought was ineffective, but now it seems that it should still be useful.
Thanks to the Mermaid King...
She shook her head quickly. Now was not the time to think about these things.
She looked up again and asked the person next to her like a little child: "Then why do we have to hide and have dinner together?"
The fathead fish on the left lowered his voice: "Because there is a traitor in the sea tribe! This traitor surrendered to humans and is a running dog of humans!"
The fathead fish on the right also showed anger on his face: "If we don't hide and are seen by this traitor, he will bring humans to catch us!"
"Traitor?" Qiao Xi opened his eyes wide, as if he didn't understand: "Then why don't we kill the traitor with so many of us?"
The fathead fish on the left said, "That damn traitor is very cunning! He has as many tricks as the tentacles and suckers on his body! Even the king has suffered at his hands. We can only avoid him. If he comes to catch us with human weapons, it will be dangerous!"
A trace of desolation flashed across Qiao Xi's face: "My mother was taken away like this. I dreamed that she was locked in a huge water tank with many red jellyfish..."
“Poor child…” The fathead fish on the left held her in his arms and patted her head gently with its fin.
Josh looked up: “Brother, can you tell me who the traitor is? If I know who he is, I can avoid him.”
"This..." A trace of hesitation flashed across the face of the fathead fish: "No, I can't tell you. His name was cursed by the king. No tribe in the sea can say his name."
Josh was a little puzzled: "But if that's the case, then we newborns won't know who the traitor is? What if he approaches us quietly and coaxes us ashore?"
The fathead fish on the right heard this and said, "Then remember my child, if you see a monster with many legs, stay away from it."
A look of understanding flashed across Josh’s eyes.
It has multiple legs and tentacles and suction cups, and it already has a prototype.
She asked again in a pitiful manner, but didn't get any more information.
The only message these two bighead carps communicated was "a monster with many legs."
She didn't continue wasting time on these two fish. Instead, she squeezed next to other monsters and started to ask them questions in the same way.
The information obtained was very little.
Either these monsters didn't know who the traitor was, or they knew but kept silent, as if they didn't want to say anything more.
Watching time pass by little by little.
Just as Qiao Xi was about to turn around to look for her teammates, something similar to a bone whip suddenly stretched out from the gap of the monster, wrapped around her and pulled her over.
Qiao Xi was shocked, and Yu Ze and others hiding in the crowd also changed their expressions instantly.
But what was holding her back was the biggest hole at the end of the long table, and what was entangled around her was his bony beard.
Josie remembered these people saying, he was a mermaid?
"Little guy, you look unfamiliar." Bone spoke softly. As he spoke, his three layers of densely packed teeth chattered up and down, and black gas floated out of his mouth as he spoke.
Josh almost fainted from the smoke.
She quickly said, "I'm new here."
Although this monster looks hideous, she inexplicably has a natural filter and liking for mermaids.
Maybe it's because of the Mermaid King.
The mermaid stared at her for a while, then suddenly asked, "You're running around the table, asking about the traitor. Do you admire him?"
broken!
This mermaid seemed to have a very high status at the table. When he moved, almost all the creatures looked over.
He asked this in front of so many monsters, and the traitor hiding at the scene must have been alerted.
