Lu Jiu's first reaction was to call out to the siren, but before he could open his mouth, the siren rushed straight to the injured giant lantern fish, climbed onto the giant lantern fish's huge head with skilled movements, pointed at the aircraft, and made a sharp sound.

The giant lantern fish, which had long been angry, swung its tail and rushed towards the aircraft.

Lu Jiu: "..."

Shit!

He thought it was Si Xu who saved the siren from the giant sea monster's mouth, but he didn't expect that the siren and the giant lantern fish were actually in the same group!

If the aircraft was hit by such a big gang, it would probably have to be returned to the factory for repair.

Si Xu reacted quickly and quickly controlled the aircraft to dodge.

The giant lantern fish was too big, and every time it swung its tail, the water flow hindered the speed of the aircraft.

Si Xu had no choice but to float up.

The siren seemed not to let them go, and called out again. The giant lantern fish seemed to understand what the siren meant, and swung its tail vigorously, chasing the aircraft.

Lu Jiu was a little anxious, "Let me go, we are of the same kind, I will communicate with her."

Si Xu: "There are too many giant sea monsters here, she is protected by giant lantern fish, you may be attacked by other giant sea monsters if you go out."

Lu Jiu looked back at the giant lantern fish chasing after her, "She is hiding alone at the bottom of the sea, and her appearance is very strange, maybe she is related to the Haijia tribe, I must go down to take a look."

Si Xu: "Don't worry, I will lead the lantern fish to a place where there are fewer giant sea monsters."

Lu Jiu was worried that the giant lantern fish would suddenly stop chasing and turn away, but it turned out that he was overthinking.

Whether it was the siren or the giant lantern fish, they didn't want to let them go, and it was obvious that they wanted them to die here.

The giant lantern fish opened its mouth wide, trying to swallow the aircraft in one gulp. The aircraft suddenly accelerated, and the giant lantern fish bit into nothing with a "click".

After a few times, the mermaid seemed to find that the aircraft was luring the lantern fish away. Worried that it was a scam, she patted the giant lantern fish on the head, and the giant lantern fish, which was chasing madly, stopped.

Rujiu: "..."

Damn it! Why did you suddenly stop chasing?

The mermaid and the giant lantern fish stopped where they were and stared at the aircraft.

Rujiu: "I want to go out."

Now they are in the sea, and the aircraft cannot be opened casually. If you want to open it, you have to float to the surface first.

Rujiu was worried that the mermaid would leave, so she asked the system to help keep an eye on it.

The aircraft surfaced, and Lu Jiu took off his clothes and shoes skillfully and put them in the aircraft. The situation was urgent, and Lu Jiu even forgot to be shy, stripped himself naked, opened the cabin door, and plunged into the sea.

Si Xu stood on the sea, put away the aircraft, and followed Lu Jiu into the sea.

When Si Xu entered the sea, Lu Jiu's mermaid form had not yet fully appeared. Lu Jiu rolled in the sea, and seemed to be in great pain. His hand and leg bones were deforming, and the transformation process was very short. After

the mermaid form appeared, Lu Jiu paused for a few seconds, swung his tail and swam towards the bottom of the sea.

The giant lantern fish had not left yet, and the mermaid was still sitting on its head. She saw such a perfect mermaid swimming towards her, and she was completely stunned, staring blankly at the strange mermaid approaching.

No, not strange... The mermaid couldn't tell what this feeling was, her heart was tightened.

The same was true for Lu Jiu. When he faced Lottie and Lei Lei before, he had a good impression of them and wanted to get close to them, but when facing this mermaid, Lu Jiu really felt what kinship was.

Lu Jiu looked at the mermaid, and his eyes instantly turned red. Twenty years of wandering and helplessness turned into grievances at this moment, and he wanted to cry.

When he was in the aircraft, looking at the mermaid, he was not very moved, but when he turned into a mermaid and entered the sea, it was particularly clear.

The sea water was their medium, allowing him to clearly realize the identity of the mermaid.

Lu Jiu stopped in front of the giant lantern fish, but did not approach it. He just looked at the mermaid from a distance.

Si Xu caught up from behind and stopped beside Lu Jiu. He keenly noticed that Lu Jiu's mood was not right.

The mermaid's siren bloodline was not as pure as Lu Jiu's. It was the first time she had such a feeling, and she did not realize what it meant.

She just looked at them in shock. In addition to a perfect mermaid, there was also a human who could stay in the sea for a long time. Who on earth were they? !

Lu Jiu found that the mermaid did not seem to recognize him, so he immediately took off the mask on his face and handed it to Si Xu. Si Xu put the mask in his pocket.

The Siren was even more shocked. She stared at Lu Jiu's face with disbelief.

Lu Jiu looked very similar to his grandmother, Werner Elton. Coupled with the strange feeling in her heart, the Siren immediately realized something.

She stared at Lu Jiu with her eyes wide open. Her eyes were very red, but no tears could be seen.

The Siren left the big head of the giant lantern fish and swam forward unconsciously, wanting to take a closer look at the young man.

Lu Jiu's eyes were also red. He said in the sea, "Are you Ms. Vera?"

This was the first time Lu Jiu spoke in the sea. As a human being, he always felt that he could not speak in the sea. In fact, he could speak, but it was just a psychological effect. He always felt that the sea water would pour into his mouth and nose as soon as he opened his mouth.

Just like the first time he entered the sea, he was so scared that he held his breath and dared not breathe until he could not hold it anymore and took a breath. As a result, he did not spit water and could breathe freely in the water.

The mermaid's lips trembled and she nodded, nodded vigorously.

Si Xu was surprised. He had seen Vera's photos before. The mermaid in front of him had a layer of small scales on her face and skin, and it was difficult to recognize her original appearance. Even with Si Xu's ability to recognize people, he could not recognize her, and it was even less likely that Lu Jiu would recognize her.

Si Xu knew without thinking that Lu Jiu must have recognized the other party through blood relationship again.

The mermaid waved her tail and came close to Lu Jiu. She looked at Lu Jiu's face carefully, stretched out her hand covered with small scales, and carefully stroked Lu Jiu's face, her eyes full of pain and pity.

Lu Jiu knew that the mermaid should be crying, but she could not see tears, her tears all flowed into the sea water.

The mermaid spoke, "What's your name?"

"My name is Lu Jiu."

The mermaid was stunned and trembled, "You, you are not surnamed Liao? Why is your surname not Liao? Aren't you my child?"

Lu Jiu held her hand, "I am Vera's child, but my surname is not Liao."

The mermaid grabbed Lu Jiu tightly, "Why? What happened?"

This is a long story. Lu Jiu pointed to the sea surface. They needed to go up to talk. Si Xu was not a sea creature and could not stay in the sea for a long time.

Lu Jiu expressed his intention to go up, but there was no reef nearby. If he went up to talk, Si Xu might need to consume energy to create a flat surface that could support them.

The mermaid swam back, called out twice softly, and pointed to the sea surface. The giant lantern fish seemed to understand what she meant and began to float up .

Lu Jiu held Si Xu and followed him to swim up.

The giant lantern fish exposed its back and head above the sea. The mermaid, Lu Jiu and Si Xu all climbed up and sat on the head of the giant lantern fish, completely exposed to the sun.

The mermaid looked around vigilantly, patted the giant lantern fish's head, and let it sink into the sea.

Rujiu told her why her last name was Rujiu instead of Liao. Vera burst into tears. While she hated the Liao family, she felt sorry for her only child. She hugged Rujiu again and again, but still felt it was not enough. Rujiu

helped her wipe away her tears, "I'm living a good life now."

Vera still cried. Thinking of her child and how much suffering she had suffered, Vera felt her heart was broken.

The only support for her to live to this day was her child. She wanted to live to see her child again, otherwise she would not have been able to hold on until now.

Rujiu comforted her and finally stopped her tears.

What Lu Jiu cares about most is Vera's experience. She asks her why she is here and why she looks like this.

Vera doesn't care about herself, but is very nervous about Lu Jiu. "Why are you in the form of a mermaid? Were you also captured by Heijia?"

Lu Jiu shook her head. "No, I turned into a mermaid by myself. It has nothing to do with others."

Vera was greatly relieved. "That's good, that's good."

Vera talked about the reason why she became like this.

Vera has always known that she is a descendant of the sirens. Her mother Weiner did not hide it from her. She even told her why they were hiding everywhere. In Weiner's mind, it was the sirens and the Heijia who killed her lover and Vera's father. They are all enemies.

In order to save Vera's life, Weiner cruelly changed her appearance, faked her identity, and sent her to Country Z to live, while Weiner stayed abroad to attract the attention of the Elton family and the Cecil family.

After giving birth to Lu Jiu, Vera knew that she didn't have much time left. If she was alone, she could die calmly, but she had a child, and the child was still so young. She couldn't bear to leave the child and die, so she wanted to go to the sea to find a chance to survive.

On the sea, she met a foreign girl who was floating on the sea with a big barrel. Out of kindness, Vera rescued the girl and put her on the boat. The girl said there were pirates here and asked Vera to leave the sea immediately.

Vera went to the sea to find a chance to survive, but she didn't want to die in the hands of pirates. She turned around and left immediately, but not long after she escaped, her ship was attacked, and she and the girl were both shot and fell into the sea. When she woke up again, she was on a strange big ship.

Later, Vera found out that they were not pirates, but members of the Cecil family. The girl she saved was also a descendant of the Sirens. Vera

said, "Later, we were sent to a research institute where the Cecil family was doing research, hoping to develop a drug that would restore Sirens and Heiga to their original state... They succeeded."

Otherwise, she would not be alive today. She was clearly doomed to die, but she survived under the research of the Cecil family.

Vera did not say much about what happened in the research institute. It was her lifelong nightmare.

"Some time ago, the ancient palace was suspected to be discovered in the high seas. The Cecil family sent all the sirens and sea magpies who could transform into their original forms. We hid in the seabed in advance and waited for the opportunity to act."

Vera has been in the research institute for many years. She wanted to escape there countless times. The high seas mission gave her hope. She pretended to carry out the mission, but in fact she was ready to escape.

When the sirens and sea magpies acted, she would always fall behind. So when the underwater palace exploded, she was the farthest away and suffered the least damage, but she was also seriously injured. She was shaken away and fainted in the cracks of the rocks on the seabed.

When she woke up, she found a large lantern fish beside her, which had been guarding Vera.

Vera was badly injured and stuck in the crack of the rock, unable to move. She was very hungry and reached out to catch the passing sea fish, but because of her severe injuries and slow movements, she could not catch anything.

The lantern fish seemed to know that she was hungry, so it left for a while, and when it came back, it spit out a few small fish from its mouth for Vera to eat.

Vera was very weak, and if she wanted to survive, she had to eat those small fish.

Seeing Vera eat the small fish, the lantern fish circled Vera and wagged its tail, seeming very happy, and turned around to catch small fish to feed Vera.

In this way, during the period when Vera was seriously injured, it was this lantern fish that fed her. The lantern fish took good care of her. When other fish that had grown larger wanted to attack Vera, the lantern fish protected her like a baby and fought with other fish.

The lantern fish grew larger and larger. After chasing away the enemy again, the lantern fish smashed the rock with its head and rescued Vera from the crack in the rock. The lantern fish opened its mouth wide.

Vera didn't understand at first. The lantern fish opened its mouth wide and approached Vera cautiously, and took Vera into its mouth. The lantern fish might be worried that Vera was scared, so it didn't dare to close its mouth at first, and kept its mouth open, letting Vera sleep in its mouth.

Later, Vera got used to it. Every time she took a break, she would hide in the mouth of the giant lantern fish. At this time, the lantern fish would close its saw teeth and take Vera around, like coaxing a child to sleep.

During the past few months in the sea, it was the giant lantern fish that took care of Vera. So when the giant lantern fish was attacked, Vera was so angry that she rushed out to fight the attacker, but she didn't expect to meet the child she was worried about in this situation.

Lu Jiu also didn't expect that he came here to find the magic crystal marrow, purify his blood, improve his strength, and prepare to rescue Vera, but he didn't expect Vera to have her own plans and escape by herself.

It was not until then that Lu Jiu and Si Xu understood why Haijia would go around to find the Liao family. The news that Lu Jiu was Vera's child was widely circulated on the Internet. The Cecil family must have received the news, so they wanted to use the Liao family to immigrate Lu Jiu abroad. The

Cecil family probably thought that Vera was dead, and deliberately told Lu Jiu that his mother was still alive and in their hands. It turned out that they wanted to lure Lu Jiu over so that they could catch him.

Unfortunately, they never expected that Vera was not dead, but had been hiding in the seabed, and was encountered by Lu Jiu.

Maybe the Cecil family didn't expect that Lu Jiu would be so stubborn that he dared to come to the sea area with the most serious radiation and giant sea monsters to look for the magic crystal marrow. Anyone with a normal mind would not do such a thing. Coming here is undoubtedly like committing suicide, but Lu Jiu came anyway.

There was one thing that Lu Jiu couldn't figure out. It had been several months since the explosion of the High Seas Palace. This was enough time for Vera to recover from her injuries. Why didn't she go to Country Z to find him?

Speaking of this, Vera's eyes became red again.

She was full of remorse, "Mom is sorry for you. I thought about going back to find you, but I can't... I can't show up in front of people like this. I'm also afraid that the Cecil family will notice you. I can't implicate you..."

Rujiu didn't understand, "What do you mean?"

Vera looked at her arms and broken fish tail, "I can't transform into this form by myself. I need to use medicine. There is a medicine to activate the mermaid form. If I want to return to the land, I have to inject medicine to restore the human form."

Almost all the sirens and sea magpies who went to the sea to perform the mission at that time died. If Vera hadn't fallen behind deliberately and waited for an opportunity to escape, she would not have survived.

Rujiu frowned deeply.

Rujiu: System, help me check my mother to see if this medicine is harmful to the body.

The system quickly gave the result.

[The damage is great. The drug will destroy genetic tissue. Once activated, a batch of Siren genes will be killed. After three times, almost all Siren genes can be killed. Then there will be no more Siren genes in her body, and other genes will also be destroyed. As far as I know, this plane cannot cure genetic diseases.]

Lu Jiu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth in hatred.

The answer of the Demon Hunting System was shared with Si Xu. Si Xu also heard the result. He patted Lu Jiu soothingly.

Si Xu said: "How many times have you changed into the Siren form?"

Vera looked at him, not yet getting to know this young man properly.

Si Xu: "Hello, my name is Si Xu, yes..."

Si Xu paused and looked at Lu Jiu.

Rujiu held Si Xu's hand, "Mom, he is my boyfriend."

Vera was stunned, and nodded slowly after a moment. After going through so much, she had no opinion on the child's sexual orientation. As long as the child was happy, she would not object.

Rujiu asked again, "Mom, how many times have you changed into a mermaid?"

Vera: "I changed once in the research institute, and this is the second time. What's wrong?"

Rujiu and Si Xu breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
