"Are you sure this ugly creature is a mermaid?"
"Hey, how can you not be sure? Before the apocalypse, I often watched foreign movies and read novels, and they all said that mermaids looked like this."
But why are these two mermaids on the shore? Could there be some problem in the sea that caused them to come ashore?
"Why do you care so much? Who cares where it came from? Judging from its appearance, it must be dead and floated here after it died."
None of the men knew that the two mermaids were actually in disguise, just to lure them over.
Historical records state that mermaids have beautiful songs, but those who hear them are often captivated and lose their senses.
Little do people know that besides the fact that humans only know mermaids have beautiful songs but cannot listen to them, they also have another skill: feigning death.
The idea is to make humans think they are dead, and then, when the opportunity arises, they will immediately wake up, capture humans, and eat them.
The two mermaids in front of them were exactly like that; this was their first time coming ashore to capture humans after hatching.
When the man named Guolong saw the mermaid for the first time, he couldn't help but approach her out of curiosity, wanting to get a closer look.
A man immediately said to him, "Guolong, be careful."
Guolong turned around and said with a smile, "It's nothing. Didn't they say he was already dead? I just wanted to take a look."
After saying that, he reached out and patted the mermaid's body and face a couple of times. Seeing no reaction, he turned to them and smiled.
"Look, they're all fine, which means the mermaid is really dead. Let's take them back and let the base chief and the others take a look."
Suddenly, the mermaid slowly woke up, moved slightly, and opened her blue eyes to look at the group.
The men who were about to speak saw Mermaid Star approaching, and one by one they pointed behind Guolong and said in a trembling voice.
"The...the...the...the...the...behind..."
"Yes...the part after..."
Guolong was unaware of what happened next, and he said with a smile.
"What happened next? Don't scare me."
Then he turned his head with a smile and looked over, only to see an unforgettable scene.
The mermaid saw the man in front of her turn around and winked at him.
When Guolong saw this, his face changed drastically in fright, and a bad feeling arose in his mind. His instinct told him to run.
He turned to run, but the mermaid, seeing her prey about to flee, bit his arm.
Guolong was suddenly bitten on the arm and cried out in pain.
The other men were initially startled, but then quickly helped Guolong drive away the mermaid that was biting him.
At this moment, another mermaid also woke up and saw several humans beating her companion. She immediately bit one of the men and tore at him fiercely.
When the others saw this, they went to help another man.
The mermaid was being beaten to death by several men, but she still held on tightly to his arm and wouldn't let go.
Finally, with a burst of strength, the mermaid successfully bit off the man's arm, and another man's calf was bitten off as well.
Seeing this, the men fought even more fiercely.
Through their efforts, they successfully killed two mermaids.
The two injured men were groaning in pain on the ground.
"Quickly, take them to the medical room."
Several men helped the two injured men up and quickly headed towards the medical room.
Shortly after they left, several mermaids surfaced on the water.
They braced themselves on the ground with their hands and crawled toward their dead companions.
A tall, handsome merman with purple eyes—or rather, a beautiful male merman, because his features are those of a real human, delicate and handsome, with eight-pack abs.
If you didn't see his lower body, you'd think he was human.
That's right, he is the leader of the mermaids, a king.
He went to his dead companion's side, picked up the severed arm, and brought it close to his nose to smell it. The smell of blood filled his nostrils.
He growled angrily and turned to summon more mermaids into the sea.
Soon, mermaids, both male and female, began to emerge from the sea.
The mermaid leader let out another low growl towards the sea, gesturing for an attack.
On the other side, several men brought their injured teammate to the medical room and said anxiously.
"Doctor, please save them! They're dying!"
The doctor frowned. "How did this injury happen? It's so serious."
“While we were on patrol, we saw two bodies on the shore. We went to check and found out they were two mermaids. We were even more surprised that they were still alive and attacked us. We managed to kill them and escape.”
The doctor was shocked. "What? Mermaids? And you killed them?"
The man asked, puzzled, "Yes, is there a problem, doctor?"
Doctor: "This is a big problem. Ancient books record that mermaids have a strong desire for revenge. If their companions are killed, no matter where that person is, they will find them and take revenge with ruthless means."
The man was horrified. "What do we do then? We'll kill them all together."
"What can we do? Go and inform Li Yan and the other base commanders to take precautions. Otherwise, the entire settlement will be in danger. Go and inform them quickly. We're here. If we don't go now, it will really be too late."
After hearing this, the men ran out without looking back, some looking for Li Yan, others for the base commander.
Meanwhile, the mermaids were rapidly heading towards human settlements.
Several men ran while shouting, "Enemy night attack! Enemy night attack!"
The two men successfully found Base Chief Wu and explained the whole story. Base Chief Wu realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately contacted several other base chiefs.
They immediately dispatched troops to protect the residents, but they were always just a step too late.
Before the army could even assemble, the mermaid leader had already led her people to the human settlement.
As soon as they see a human, they immediately attack and bite.
They will trample on any tents they see until the humans inside come out, then pounce on them and tear them apart.
People had never seen such terrifying creatures before; all they knew was that they would pounce on and tear apart anyone they saw. A strong stench of blood filled the air.
As the humans continued to wail, the mermaids let out low growls, and some began to sing.
Upon seeing this, the base commanders disregarded everything else and immediately picked up their weapons and opened fire on the group of mermaids.
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng, who were sleeping, were suddenly awakened by the gunshot.
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng quickly sat up and listened carefully. In addition to the gunshots, they heard cries and the call of some unknown creature.
The two exchanged a glance. "Something's happened!"
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng immediately got up and contacted Chen Zhe, Zhang Haiyi, Xuan Yu, and Min Yu.
