Chapter 104 Heart of the Ocean 14

When Oscar was captured, many mermaids were also captured and put on board.

These boats were not traditional fishing boats as Oscar thought, but special ships belonging to the Royal Navy.

Because of the Emperor's request, these soldiers were specially trained and trained, and finally, after they had fully mastered all the skills to catch mermaids, they collectively sailed out to sea to catch mermaids.

According to regulations, the royal family cannot interfere in the catching of mermaids, but this time the matter was special, and it was the Emperor's order, so this rule was broken.

His Majesty the Emperor asked them to find a mermaid with black hair,

black eyes and a blue tail. Mermaids with black hair and black eyes are very rare, and the blue tail is even rarer.

According to the news from the palace, the mermaid they were looking for seemed to be the Mermaid King, and it was because he possessed the legendary "Heart of the Ocean" that the Emperor ordered his arrest.

The last mermaid to be captured was Oscar.

Humans used a special device to imprison Oscar, and then dragged the mermaid to a huge freighter in the distance.

The freighter was full of mermaids they had caught in the past few days.

Oscar was pushed from the deck to the interior of the cabin. For a while, he had a hard time adapting to the sudden change in darkness. After squinting his eyes to relieve the discomfort, Oscar finally saw what was around him.

——All blue-tailed mermaids.

Except for the same tail color, the hair and eye colors of these mermaids are not exactly the same. They are brown, gray, brown, dark blue... almost all dark colors.

From a distance, it really looks like black hair and black eyes.

Oscar secretly sneered, and was pushed to the center of the cabin by the mermaids with an expressionless face, and was looked at curiously by other mermaids.

"Is this one black hair and black eyes?" The warehouse supervisor came up and looked at Oscar carefully with a telescope. Noticing that Oscar's expression was a little unfriendly, he stepped back a little and slowed down his voice, "...Black hair? It doesn't look like it."

With the light in the warehouse, Oscar's hair was light brown, and the ends of his hair were a little translucent, which looked different from black.

The others gathered around Oscar and were a little hesitant. "But so far, we haven't caught a real black-haired, black-eyed mermaid. We've been looking for so many days... and we haven't seen a single one."

"Could it be that Your Majesty saw it wrong?"

As soon as this sentence came out, many people were silent for a moment.

"Whether Your Majesty saw it wrong or not, we can only look for it according to this standard," the supervisor said, "Your Majesty was looking through a telescope at the time, and perhaps the color was a little biased due to the influence of light."

"So these mermaids must be inspected one by one."

Oscar heard their words clearly, his tail tightened, and he was thinking about what to do in a while.

"How to inspect?" someone asked.

The supervisor hesitated for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying, "...then please invite His Highness over."

This trip to the sea to catch blue-tailed mermaids was ordered by the emperor, but the crown prince took the initiative to ask to follow before the trip.

"The way they catch mermaids may hurt the mermaid's scales," Charles asked seriously in the hall, "and I am the only one who has actually seen a blue-tailed mermaid, and I can help confirm the identity of the mermaid."

The emperor nodded slightly above, looked at Charlie for a long time, and then made an imperceptible "hmm", which was regarded as tacit approval of his request.

But Charlie knew very well in his heart that if it were not for recuperation, His Majesty the Emperor would definitely come to the sea again in person.

Charlie was on another ship.

When the crown prince was invited to come over, the people in the warehouse began to put down the mermaids one by one, tied them to the prepared operating table, and prepared to find the so-called "Heart of the Ocean".

None of them had ever seen the Heart of the Ocean. They had only heard that it was a scale that grew on the chest of

a mermaid. However, none of the mermaids they caught had scales on their chests.

The first mermaid that was tied up struggled violently, but was pinned to the operating table by the humans with her arms.

The mermaid tried to stop the other humans by singing, but the humans quickly blocked her mouth with a towel, so she could only make a sobbing sound.

The operating table was dry, and the mermaid's tail felt a little uncomfortable, so she slightly opened her scales, leaving a trail of light water stains.

"Your Majesty, you are mainly looking for the Heart of the Ocean, right?" Someone suggested boldly, "How about trying to cut the mermaid's chest? I heard that mermaids will automatically grow scales for protection when exposed to external stimuli."

If no scales grow, it will prove that the mermaid does not have the Heart of the Ocean, so it is not a big deal if she dies because of it.

Anyway, the real "black-haired, black-eyed" mermaid will not die.

His proposal was agreed by others.

Although doing so will result in the loss of many mermaids, but... after all, their mission is just to find that mermaid and report back successfully.

The supervisor took the cutting knife handed over by others, turned on the switch, and slowly aimed it at the mermaid's chest.

The boat shook violently with a "boom".

The violent shaking of the cabin made several people unsteady. The cutting knife in the warehouse manager's hand flew out, making a buzzing sound on the ground. The mermaid on the operating table took advantage of this opportunity to break free from the restraints, swung her tail and fell to the ground, leaving a trail of water marks.

The manager couldn't stand up, so he could only sit on the ground and yell, "What's going on?"

At this time, the outside of the freighter was already in chaos.

The sailors on the deck hurried out, watching the originally calm sea in front of them suddenly roll up, pushing countless huge waves towards the hull.

And under the sea surface, a layer of ink-like color could be seen slowly emerging.

Yu Xi did not use the Heart of the Ocean.

Because it is winter now, many creatures in the central ocean have migrated to the southern seas, and Yu Ling's use of the Heart of the Ocean is not as effective as before.

Moreover, Leviathan is more than enough.

Because Leviathan is too large, when the waves surge under the sea surface, it will bring out huge waves, which even look like a tsunami from a distance.

It is even more useful than Yu Xi's use of the Heart of the Ocean. Using the Heart of the Ocean may have side effects, but Yu Xi only needs to pat his head to order Leviathan to do something.

Similar to the method used to solve the mining platform last time, Leviathan only needs to float up from below the sea surface and swallow the freighter in one gulp.

However, considering that there are other captured mermaids on the ship, Yu Xi specifically reminded Leviathan not to really swallow the ship into his stomach this time, just let the hull leak.

When Leviathan jumped from the sea, everyone on the ship was quiet, and they all looked up in amazement at this overly large "whale".

What on earth is this thing?

Why is there such a big whale?

The raised waves gushed and fell on the ship, and the entire bow tilted at several angles.

Oscar, who was trapped in the cabin, heard the noise outside, and when no one was around, he smashed the glass box, and all the fish rolled out.

The other fish followed Oscar's steps, and the entire cabin was suddenly filled with the debris of the glass box and the sound of mermaids falling to the ground.

About a few minutes later, another ship not far away learned about the accident of the freighter.

Charlie was just following the person who reported out of the cabin, and suddenly saw the hurried crew running towards him in panic.

"Your Highness... Tsunami, there is a tsunami!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone on the ship watched helplessly as a huge wave flew up in front of them and was blocked by the ship's protective shield.

This is one of the royal cruise ships. After special modifications, marine disasters under normal circumstances will not endanger the lives of the people on board.

The hair on both sides of Charlie's cheeks rose and fell slightly with the wind and waves.

He ignored the obstruction of others, walked to the side of the boat in two steps, and looked straight at the sea in the distance with a slightly lowered brow.

... Could it be Yu Ling?

Charlie's expression did not change, but his hands hidden under his sleeves were clenched tightly in a place where no one noticed, and his chest was getting hot.

He came to the sea again under other names, but just wanted to see Yu Ling again.

... Yu Ling... his Yu Ling.

Although he is the king of mermaids, so what? Yu Ling is just a small mermaid in the ocean, and he has no resistance at all in front of the empire.

Charlie thought it would not be difficult to get Yu Ling.

... However, the most difficult thing now is not that Yu Ling disagrees to leave the sea, but that the emperor also knows about Yu Ling.

Charlie could vaguely guess what the emperor was thinking, but he didn't dare to stop him directly.

So...

before Charlie had time to think further, a familiar voice suddenly came to his ears.

Not only him, but everyone else on the boat heard it.

On the sea not far from them, Yu Nuo was sitting upright on the back of Leviathan, her skin exposed to the air, her long hair behind her was fluffy because of dryness, and it fell to her waist in a curled arc.

Yu Nuo looked up at the familiar Charlie on the boat very seriously, a little angry, and shouted in a loud voice with full momentum, "Release all the mermaids on that boat!"

But Yu Nuo was obviously not good at threatening people, and her original voice was a little sticky. Even if she shouted with amplified voice, it was just like the angry voice of a kitten.

Charlie was unable to react to Yu Nu's sudden appearance. He just stared at the fish. He didn't hear Yu Nu's words until she repeated them loudly. However, he didn't take his eyes off Yu Nu.

"Do you know why they were caught?" Charlie said, "The Emperor saw you, Yu Nu. You were too careless."

Why did the Emperor see it?

"We have already caught hundreds of mermaids. Even the deal I made with you has far exceeded the agreed number," Charlie continued, completely ignoring the strange looks from others. "Yu Nu, this is not fair." Yu Nu

frowned and thought for a while. "What do you want to do?"

Charlie raised his hand and pointed at him. "Come with me. I will release all the mermaids."

The guards beside him quietly opened the cruise ship barrier at Charlie's suggestion.

The opened barrier will not only block the creatures outside, but also restrict the creatures within the range from going out.

Yu Xi was right within the range of the barrier.

Yu Xi had already left Leviathan when they were talking, and they were separated by the invisible barrier before either of them noticed.

Yu Xi actually thought about it for a while, but finally refused.

He wanted to negotiate with Charlie again, but saw Charlie on the boat suddenly smiled in an ambiguous way.

Then, Yu Xi heard a dull collision sound from behind.

Leviathan wanted to rush in like crazy, but there seemed to be a transparent wall between him and Yu Xi, and he couldn't get in.
