Chapter 32 Muscle Fierce Fish Power Worship
Standing in the tranquil snowfield, time seems to slow down.
There is no sign of life here, only the howling wind and the falling snow.
"We're here."
With the mermaid's guidance, they cleverly crossed the dangerous snow layer and came to an uncovered frozen lake.
The entire lake is covered with solid ice, and from a distance it looks like a huge mirror, with several rough cracks in the center deeply embedded in the ice.
The mermaid raised her tail and gently slapped the unstable ice, which shattered completely. A gap leading to the water was revealed in the center of the lake.
"Just send it here," Chen Shuang said to Long, "Lilitan will go back first. I will let you know when I come out."
A small glass-colored pendant hung on the dragon's body, which was emitting a warm glow, protecting him from the cold.
But the ancient dragon stone cannot completely eliminate the impact of the snowfield. The dragons born in the heat still cannot fully adapt to the temperature here.
Sending them here is already the limit of the dragon.
The dragon twitched its frozen paws and said reluctantly, "You must come out soon. I'll be waiting for you at the edge of the snowfield. If you're not out by then, I'll come find you."
He repeated, "I will definitely come to find you."
Chen Shuang touched Long's head, feeling his affectionate gaze, and comforted him, "Don't worry, I won't keep you waiting too long."
Long finally left, looking back every few steps.
Chen Shuang wrapped her cloak around herself, looked at the mermaid who had been quiet from the beginning, and asked, "Are you cold?"
Even the priests who possessed the origin of darkness would unconsciously have the illusion of being "very cold" when standing in this forbidden area for living beings and looking at the white snowy area.
The mermaid shook her head. “How could that be?”
He sat on the ice, his beautiful blue tail fin already poking into the water through the crack, now calmly paddling back and forth in the lake water, which was freezing cold for other creatures.
Circles of ripples appeared in sight and then gradually dissipated.
"I just don't know how to face them," he said.
"Master Priest," the mermaid raised her eyes to look at Chen Shuang, her eyes full of confusion: "Can I really go home?"
As a defective product expelled by the tribe, even if we find clean waters, can we really be accepted again?
He looked at his reflection and lowered his voice: "I know you were just comforting me before, I'm so ugly..."
Favors were never his.
"Jialan."
Chen Shuang sat next to the mermaid, looking up from his gorgeous fish tail until she looked at his face and met a pair of clear sapphire eyes.
"To me, you are the most beautiful creation in the hands of God."
She was very serious: "Especially your eyes, they are like bright gems."
Thinking of the black-skinned fierce fish that she might see later, Shen Shuang took a deep breath and said honestly, "You are very good like this."
"And I don't think your kind are good-looking."
Things like the black-skinned, muscular mermaid have transcended the boundaries of the world and reached the blank area of human aesthetics.
It's really too abstract.
I'm fine like this.
Yu stared at Chen Shuang blankly, and suddenly smiled brightly.
He nodded vigorously at her: "Yeah!"
She thinks I'm nice.
That's enough.
"Well, there's one more thing," Yu whispered.
Seeing Chen Shuang looking at him, Yu couldn't help but look away, a little shy: "Can you give me your hand?"
"hand?"
Chen Shuang stretched out her right hand, and the fair mermaid in front of her took her hand and gently pressed it against her forehead.
He closed his eyes, his long eyelashes casting a thick shadow under his eyes, as if he was performing a holy ritual.
The system made a "ding dong" sound.
[Congratulations, you have received the "mermaid's blessing"]
【I have your beat in my heart.
The most precious gift from the sea creatures. Breath and touch, body temperature and pulse, will be fully intertwined in the water.
[How to use: You will briefly share the physical sensation with the well-wishers]
The mermaid quickly withdrew his hand, his ears already red. He lowered his head and muttered, "This way you can breathe in the water."
Without waiting for Chen Shuang to answer, the already mature mermaid jumped directly into the water. The ripples on the water disappeared, leaving only a string of small bubbles left in the gap in the lake surface.
Chen Shuang put her hand into the water. The originally icy cold lake water had lost its deterrent effect, and was replaced by a comfortable warmth.
The cold was gone.
"It's time to go down."
With a "plop", the ice surface was empty.
Chen Shuang felt her body floating up.
My vision was covered by the water flow, and the soft touch wrapped around my whole body, bringing me an ultimate sense of security. When I opened my eyes again, I saw an underwater world with blue and snow colors overlapping.
The mermaid is not far away.
His algae-blue hair floated in the water, and was given a moist sheen by the water's light. He turned around after noticing the fluctuations, revealing his delicate and beautiful face.
The fish swam over nimbly and asked, "How is it?"
Although I was clearly underwater, I could clearly hear the mermaid's voice.
Chen Shuang said: "It's a very wonderful experience."
"Let's go," she said, "and meet your people."
Trying to find a cold enough to rival the volcanic heat, I think local fish have a home advantage.
Swimming in the water is a more light-hearted experience than flying in the sky.
The buoyancy supports part of the body's weight, making the whole body light and very comfortable.
The mermaid's powerful blue-scaled tail was fully utilized in the water. Her vision changed rapidly as it swung, and she moved forward quickly with Chen Shuang.
At a certain moment, he suddenly stopped, and his ear fins moved slightly backward, which was a sign of nervousness.
"What's wrong?"
The fish curled up its fingers and said, "I saw my people."
Chen Shuang followed his gaze and looked forward, and saw a tall black figure.
His gaze shifted downwards, and the creature before him was replaced from the waist down by a thick fish tail. At this moment, he noticed the movement and turned back, revealing a serious look... Hmm?
Dotty eyes???
Chen Shuang's mental preparation was instantly shattered.
She looked at the dark-skinned, strong mermaid that looked like Lego, and her entire facial features began to become tangled.
Chen Shuang: I really want to laugh, but I’m holding it back.
Jia Lan swam forward, wagging his tail, and began to negotiate with the strong guard. He slowed his voice and said, "I want to see the chief."
Lego glanced at Jia Lan and scratched his head: "It's you."
"But the chief said there haven't been any fish lately."
Lego looked at Chen Shuang who was following behind the mermaid, his eyes narrowed into a ball, and he was very conflicted: "Especially since you brought outsiders in, the tribe leader will scold me if I let you in."
"I don't want to fight you," the Lego guard swam closer, his powerful tail swaying, his muscles throbbing like a hill, and advised, "You better leave quickly. It will be hard to end this once the other fish come."
Jia Lan shook his head: "No, I have something very important to ask the clan leader."
The Lego guard scratched his head and said, "I see."
He suggested: "Then you fight with me, and then I pretend to be knocked down by you, and you take the opportunity to sneak in."
The Lego guard smiled innocently: "Don't worry, you know, I'm very good at pretending to be dead."
"But you can't just fight like that."
He looked around and saw Chen Shuang standing quietly beside him. Inspiration struck him and he frowned: "You ugly freak, you can only play with such a weak human."
Jia Lan looked up at him with a heavy look in his eyes: "Say it again."
Oh, oh, oh, what great acting!
Seeing how engrossed the other party was, the Lego guard immediately worked harder.
"Angry?"
He laughed heartily: "Even the weak ones are so weak and ridiculous when they get angry."
Jia Lan spoke each word with emphasis: "You were just talking about weak humans?"
"oh?"
Lego hugged his chest: "It's for face. I don't want humans to look down on you."
"What a pity," he clicked his tongue twice, "Not only are you a waste, but the humans behind you are also..." waste.
Before the Lego guard could finish his words, a beautiful blue fish tail suddenly swung towards him, and the powerful impact made him spin like a top in the water.
"Gulu, gurgle, gurgle, so powerful."
The Lego guard felt dizzy and shook his head, his eyes suddenly lighting up.
"Why didn't you tell me you were so powerful earlier?" He stretched his shoulders, feeling that they had met too late, and said happily, "Let's fight. If you win, I'll let you in."
Jia Lan was obviously a little surprised at his own strength, but the guard in front of him had already rushed over excitedly, leaving him no time to hesitate.
A mermaid competition officially begins.
The Lego guard rushed forward excitedly, then turned into a spinning top and spun back, but he remained indomitable.
Guard: "Ha, come again!"
Guard: "Stop it!"
Guard: "Oh, oh, oh, don't hit my face, please!"
Chen Shuang found an open space to sit down and watch the mermaid's one-sided crushing performance.
[God's Eyes: Chance to Enhance Follower's Physical Fitness]
After living in the temple for so many days, the mermaid's physical condition has long been improved.
The blue fish tail rose up and hit the guard's abdomen. His small eyes suddenly widened and a few tears flashed. He propped himself up and sat up: "I'm strong, nothing happened, it doesn't hurt at all."
The Lego guard refused Jia Lan's help and stood up stubbornly, shaking his tail: "Come again!"
As Chen Shuang watched, she felt that there were several more figures around her. She turned her head and found that a large group of mermaids had stood behind her without her noticing, all staring intently at the two fish fighting in front of them.
Chen Shuang: “…Uh.”
All Lego faces and dotty eyes.
Chen Shuang pursed her lips: Hold it back, don’t laugh.
The fish watching the show followed the fight with their eyes, and applauded in encouragement when they saw the exciting parts.
A fish shouted, "Hahahaha, show me that spinning top again!"
Chen Shuang: "Ahem."
I kind of wonder who they are cheering for.
The fish closest to Chen Shuang had a pair of cute dimples. He sat next to Chen Shuang in a familiar manner, glancing at her from time to time.
Chen Shuang: "What's wrong?"
The dimpled mermaid blinked: "You are so beautiful! I have never seen such a beautiful human."
Chen Shuang: “…”
Based on the mermaid's aesthetic taste, she was a little hesitant to accept this compliment.
The dimpled mermaid looked at Jia Lan again and muttered, "Why didn't I think this guy was so handsome before?"
As he spoke, Jia Lan turned the Lego guard into a spinning top again.
The dimpled mermaid clapped her hands and said, "Great! I'm handsome again!"
The commotion at the door attracted the attention of the other guards. Two mermaid guards rushed over and shouted angrily, "What are you doing?"
They swam over hurriedly.
After a while, two more spinning tops appeared in the field.
The audience members behind him were whispering, "I didn't look closely before, but now I see that Jia Lan is so handsome."
Chen Shuang looked around and saw everyone nodding in agreement.
Chen Shuang: “…”
Is it possible to change the aesthetic so hastily?
Hiss, she seemed to have figured out the mermaid's aesthetic system.
Turning her gaze once again to the group of starry-eyed mermaids behind her, she easily came to the conclusion.
Worship of strength, not appearance.
For mermaids, face is the least important thing.
Chen Shuang looked around at the Lego-faced mermaids.
Hold it in, it's impolite to laugh.
