"Gagaga!!"
Ah Chou was so angry that he shouted, and after his protests were ignored, he had no choice but to obediently dive into the sea.
A moment later, Ah Chou floated to the surface with a pearl oyster in his mouth and tossed it onto the boat with a "plop."
"quack!"
"It looks like there's nothing wrong."
Xu Milu picked it up and examined it carefully. The pearl oyster was about the size of two adult palms, and the pearl was hidden inside the oyster's flesh. With a gentle squeeze, the pale red pearl fell into her palm.
The pearl, the size of a fish eye, was perfectly round and had a good luster, but when Xu Milu gently pinched it, it turned into powder as easily as before.
"It's not just white pearls used for breeding; black pearls, red pearls, and pink pearls have also experienced varying degrees of reduced production and quality decline."
Gree said with a worried look, "If this continues, the children born in Pearl City this year will not be able to evolve fish tails and will only be able to survive on land."
Xu Milu suddenly remembered the giant lava whale in the sea. It had lived in the sea for so many years, and it should know the changes in the seawater better than anyone else.
"Mayor, do you know the history of Pearl City? I heard that Pearl City was established five hundred years ago. Who discovered this land in the first place?"
Xu Milu wasn't sure if the Siren Clan knew that the "land" they depended on for survival was actually the back of a giant whale, so she couldn't help but probe.

Five hundred years ago, when the new food route was being developed, Grand Duke Fernando discovered this fertile land and named it ‘Pearl City.’ He granted it to Ahai’s father as a fief. However, Ahai was not interested in managing the fief. Two hundred years ago, he declared that Pearl City was no longer his fief and began to elect a mayor every ten years.”
Glico scratched his head:
"I am only a hundred years old this year, and I don't know much about history. If you need to know more about the history of Pearl City, you can ask Granny Purple Tail. She has lived in Pearl City for four hundred years and knows a lot of things. However, the detectives who investigated before also consulted Granny Purple Tail, but they didn't get any results."
Xu Milu nodded, indicating that she understood, but she didn't say anything more, just stared at the deep sea in deep thought.
Could it be that Granny Purple Tail actually knew about the existence of this giant lava whale?
