Mermaid Town
No one dared to think too much about it, because Gu Lin's tone was so eager, a desire for food.
And fish?
Children like to use reduplication, and that’s okay.
This copy is called Mermaid Town, and it is a horror copy. It is easy to imagine that mermaids are definitely not as beautiful as described in the legend. But even the beautiful mermaids with human bodies and fish tails in movies and TV dramas are not... edible, right?
No, what Gu Lin meant was that he wanted the mermaid to come out quickly so that he could get the little pearl, complete the task, and then go home for dinner.
Gu Lin's next words destroyed their forced excuses: "I'm so hungry that I can eat a whole fish!"
Everyone: “…”
Isn’t this just a remake of “I’m so hungry I could eat a whole cow”?
Why is there a hint of pride in this tone?
Don’t care about the fish head.
It’s no wonder that the players were shocked. Even though the audience in the live broadcast room were well-informed and had seen all kinds of weird things in horror games, they were still surprised for a moment by Gu Lin’s remarks.
He speaks as fiercely as a tiger, but when you look at the cubs they are as young as mice.
But they were very receptive and quickly accepted this setting.
[The kid is so young, but he can actually eat a whole mermaid. How awesome (〃'▽'〃)]
[Baby, fly bravely. If anything goes wrong, you will have to bear the consequences. Haha! 】
[Fish is disgusting, I don’t want to eat fish, buy some snacks for me [reward points x20]]
[I fell in love with this kid at first sight. Here, here is my aunt’s gift [reward points x20]]
【Only 20 as a meeting gift? That's too stingy. Buy a granny for the baby [reward points x50]]
[This cub is indeed cute, but what if it only lives in the opening theme song? I'll just observe and not waste my feelings, but I still have to give a gift, buy some candy for the kid [reward points x20]]
[I don't believe it. The kid I like can't just live in the opening theme song! Baby, fly bravely, auntie will always be with you! [Reward points x20]]
[Wow, this is the anchor who gained the fastest number of followers I have ever seen, and he is only a two-year-old cub. He squatted there, I want to see how he can fly with his two short legs! Don’t let the points you reward him be of no use to him and all of them be wasted on the system! 】
…
When a player dies, the points will be recovered by the system.
Gu Lin didn't care about being looked down upon, he knew that adults liked to judge people by appearance, if they thought he was cute they would want to rub him, if they thought he was weak they would think he was weak.
He wouldn't bother with them.
Gu Lin thanked him politely, his voice crisp and tender: "Thank you, auntie."
Can I buy food with these points?
9527: [Yes, little anchor, points can be used to purchase any goods from the system mall, including food. 】
9527 had never made a sound in his mind before. Gu Lin felt the sound in his mind. He tilted his head and raised his little hand to pat his head, as if he was trying to knock it out.
9527: [……]
Gu Lin was very smart. When he saw that he couldn’t figure out anything, he quickly understood: [Who are you? Why is it in my head? Is it the system? 】
9527: [Yes, little anchor, I am your personal little system, codename 9527.]
Gu Lin said happily: [9527, can I buy food now? 】
9527: […The system mall needs 300 points to unlock. The anchor currently has 130 points, so you need to wait a little longer. 】
Gu Lin said "Oh" and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed: [Okay then. 】
9527: [……]
It didn't even have the courage to tell Gu Lin that the points of other players were still 0, but he had already received 130... Oh, now it has become 150 rewards, which is already impressive.
After all, this copy has just been opened, and there are not many viewers. Even though most of the audience are attracted by Gu Lin, the audience base itself is not large, and there are not many for the time being.
When the other players heard Gu Lin thanking the void, they all looked at their respective live broadcast panels.
Except for Gu Lin, no player received any tips from the audience. There were even very few barrages and only a few viewers.
The game had just started, and Gu Lin had attracted most of the audience and received rewards simply by relying on his soft and adorable appearance as a human cub, but other players were not so lucky.
All the players' focus was on Gu Lin.
Indeed, it is so cute and so small. Just standing there and doing nothing makes people want to kiss, hug and lift it up high.
Is this the halo that cute things bring?
Not only are humans powerless against cute things, but even viewers of unknown nature in the live broadcast room cannot resist them.
But everyone still remembers that this is a horror world and the audience can suck cubs like sucking cats, but players like them who will die if they don’t pass the level can’t do that.
After all, the audience just treats them as playthings and entertainment objects just for fun and excitement.
At this time, a "rustling" sound came from the depths of the fog.
Everyone froze in an instant, and even the air fell silent.
"W-what's that sound?"
Someone spoke in a trembling voice.
But no one gave an answer because no one knew what made the sound.
The sound was like the tail of a snake dragging on the ground, coming from far away and getting stronger and stronger. Everyone could hear it clearly.
Then, people all thought of the name of this copy -
Mermaid Town.
Maybe it's not the tail of a snake, but...
Fishtail.
The "swish" sound came a few meters closer and moved very quickly. In less than a minute, it seemed to be right next to my ear.
But the fog was so thick that I could only hear the sound but couldn't see what was coming.
The "swish" sound started from one, then two, then three, and became more and more frequent and dense, coming from all directions of the thick fog.
The player's task is to obtain the pearls transformed from the mermaid's tears. Naturally, the first step is to contact the mermaid. But now that the mermaid has appeared on its own initiative, the players only feel a creepy chill.
A dangerous breath of death is approaching.
Everyone else's vision was obscured by the fog, but Gu Lin, as a auspicious beast, could see in the dark. He was not hindered by the fog and saw those things clearly.
They are indeed a group of mermaids, but they look so strange...
How is this different from the mermaid in the cartoon and illustration book?
These mermaids...why do they have two fish tails?
Gu Lin’s little head was filled with confusion.
He looked left and right, horizontally and vertically, studied it carefully for a while, then opened his mouth into an O shape.
Oh, it turns out that it’s not two tails, but one fish tail that was split into two halves!
Gu Lin wanted to count how many there were. The nursery teacher had taught him to count, but he only knew a few numbers. When he counted to ten, he gave up and stopped counting.
There was no telling how many mermaids there were with their tails split in half, more than Gu Lin could count, and they were attacking the players from all directions of the street.
Gu Lin saw the bodies and faces of the mermaids clearly, and then nodded his head.
The aunts are right, Yu Yu is ugly and smells bad.
The baby doesn’t eat fish because it will give him diarrhea.
