Chapter 77 Quick Travel Guide: Poseidon (XIV)
"What do I want to do?"
Poseidon laughed exaggeratedly as if he had heard something funny.
"Of course I am thinking about the future of the mermaids! Think about it, how much of a threat would it pose to the mermaids if a person of unknown origin stayed with Poseidon?"
His words caused a lot of discussion among the people around him, and they looked at me with suspicion and hostility. I realized then that Poseidon was using public opinion to oppress us.
"Don't listen to his nonsense!"
I couldn't help but retort, "Even if I die, it won't harm the Sea God, and it won't harm the mermaids?"
"I don't understand why you hate the gods so much?"
Poseidon sneered, "Do you think we will believe this nonsense?"
As he spoke, he turned to look at Lord Poseidon, "Poseidon, you are also a prince of the mermaids. Are you really going to be so obsessed with this man that you don't care about the safety of your people?"
The Seagod looked at Poseidon coldly and said word by word: "None of your business is my business! Ziang is my man, I will protect him!"
"Good, very good!"
Poseidon laughed in anger, "Since you are stubborn and stubborn, don't blame me for being cruel!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people around us rushed forward and surrounded us. I suddenly felt despair. Am I really going to die here today?
Lord Poseidon protected me behind him, swinging the trident in his hand tightly, blocking the attacks of those people one by one.
"Who dares?"
However, the enemy was outnumbered and Lord Poseidon gradually became overwhelmed and began to suffer wounds on his body.
"Lord Poseidon, don't worry about me, just go away!" I shouted anxiously. I couldn't just sit and watch Lord Poseidon get hurt because of me.
"Let's go together!"
Lord Poseidon said firmly, "I won't leave you alone!"
At this moment, I suddenly felt a powerful force coming from afar, and then a red light broke through the sea surface and rushed straight towards me!
"Who is it?"
Poseidon cried out in surprise and stepped back subconsciously.
The red light was extremely fast and appeared in front of us in an instant.
I looked closely and was stunned. It was a man wearing a red robe and with a tough face. In his hand was a long sword emitting blue light, and his eyes were sternly scanning the people around him.
"It's you!"
When Poseidon saw the person coming, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Long time no see, Lord Poseidon." The man nodded slightly, "It seems you are in trouble."
"Are you here to help us?" I couldn't help but ask.
The man did not answer my question, but turned his gaze to Poseidon and said in a cold tone: "Poseidon, you dare to hurt my friends. Today, I will make you pay the price!"
After saying that, he swung the sword in his hand and attacked Poseidon and the others.
His swordsmanship was extremely powerful, and each of his moves carried great force. Poseidon and the others were no match for him at all, and were quickly beaten back.
I watched in amazement, my mind full of doubts. Who was this mysterious man? Why was he helping us?
Also, he said that Lord Poseidon was his friend, what's going on?
What will be the outcome of this battle? Is the appearance of this mysterious man a blessing or a curse? I was filled with anxiety and doubts. I could only hold the hand of the Sea God tightly and wait for fate to decide.
In the freezing sea water, the red light became more and more dazzling, and my heart began to beat violently.
The long sword in his hand danced in the wind, and every time it fell, it set off a huge wave, forcing Poseidon and others to retreat again and again.
It turns out his name is...Hayes! The new sea creature who dominated the underwater fighting competition!
"Hayes, why are you here?" There was a hint of surprise in Ge Yun's eyes, but more of it was joy.
Hayes did not answer, but just smiled, but the sword in his hand showed no mercy, killing him with every move.
Poseidon and his men were defeated step by step under his fierce attack and were soon completely defeated.
"Lord Poseidon, what are you still standing there for? Go!"
Hayes's voice reached me through the churning water.
The sea god finally reacted, grabbed my hand and rushed out. Poseidon shouted unwillingly: "Don't let them run away! Chase them!"
I looked back and saw Hayes, with only his sword, blocking all the pursuers like a god of war.
I have mixed feelings. Why did this mysterious man help us? What is his relationship with Lord Poseidon?
"Stop looking, let's go!" Lord Poseidon pulled me and led us through twists and turns into a hidden trench.
"Wait, my sister and cousin are still in their hands!" I suddenly thought of my brother and sister.
Lord Poseidon's expression changed: "Damn it! I actually forgot about them!"
Just then, my sister and cousin's voices came from not far away: "We are here!"
I looked in the direction of the sound and saw them hiding behind a huge coral reef, waving at us anxiously.
"Great, you are all okay!" I was overjoyed and was about to swim over, but I found that Lord Poseidon's face turned very ugly.
"What's wrong?" I followed his gaze and saw several figures lurking behind the coral reef. They were Poseidon's men!
"Oh no! They want to catch turtles in the jar!" My sister also noticed something was wrong and cried out in surprise.
"Hurry up!" Lord Poseidon made a prompt decision and pulled me to swim in another direction.
"Want to leave? Not that easy!"
Poseidon's voice came from behind, with a hint of viciousness.
I looked back and saw that they had caught up with me, holding sharp harpoons in their hands, obviously they were well prepared.
"Zi'ang, put this on!"
Lord Poseidon suddenly stopped, took out a crystal clear blue bead from his arms and put it in my hand.
"What is this?"
Before I could take a closer look, he pushed me away.
"Go! I'll stop them!"
"No! I won't leave!" I tried desperately to break free, but was pushed away by a strong force.
"Be obedient! This is an order!" Lord Poseidon's voice had never been so severe.
I watched him turn around and face the enemy, my heart filled with fear and despair. At this moment, my body suddenly hit a hard reef, and the blue bead in my hand fell and disappeared into the vast deep sea...
The cold sea water slid across my cheeks, and I watched in despair as the blue disappeared from my sight. My heart seemed to sink to the bottom of the sea.
The bead that the Sea God gave me was lost just like that...
I struggled to dive down to look for it, but my body felt as heavy as if it were filled with lead.
A feeling of powerlessness came over me, and I realized that after losing the blue bead, I not only lost my strength, but even breathing became difficult.
"Zi'ang!"
The anxious voice of the Sea God came from afar. I tried to respond to him, but no sound came out. My vision began to blur, and my consciousness gradually fell into darkness...
When I woke up again, I found myself lying in a narrow cave. Poseidon was sitting next to me, looking at me with a worried look on his face.
"Are you awake?"
There was a hint of fatigue in his voice, but it couldn't hide the joy of relief.
