Chapter 280 Extra 'The Little Mermaid' (2)
In this life, Chen Tian was a duke named Bartley. Many things happened along the way, but Bartley became disheartened. With nothing to cling to in this world and a curiosity about the world beyond, he agreed to a deal with the system, allowing Chen Tian to take over his identity.
The real Duke Bartlett passed numerous tests and qualified to enter the Plane Management Bureau. He is now ready to embark on his own mission.
The Duke of Chentian holds a very high status in the kingdom, because the original owner is a man of both literary and martial talents, brave and upright.
The real Bartlett was originally a descendant of the nobility. However, after his father died on the battlefield, he was adopted by the old king and became the king's adopted son. He was raised by the old king for many years. Later, because of his contributions to the country, he was granted the title of Duke and tremendous power.
Before the old king died, Bartlett promised him that he would help the new king protect the kingdom. Of course, he also saw that his son was not suitable for the throne, and even secretly told Bartlett that if the new king was not good enough, he could replace him.
But over the years, Bartlet has been diligent and hardworking. He regards Meredith as his own brother and devotes himself to the country.
But the new king was always wary of him, suspicious of him, and even hated him for interfering in his decisions.
The original owner's temperament was a bit too straightforward, and a while ago he even directly angered Emperor Meredith.
Because Meredith wanted to execute a servant's family for a trivial matter. The new king did not care about human life and was cruel in his bones, but Bartlet would not allow such a thing to happen.
As a result, their relationship reached a freezing point. Meredith ordered Bartlet to go out to sea to explore the New World, in fact, he was trying to find a way to send him away.
The original owner was also angry and reflected on what went wrong with his actions. He was clearly considering the country.
It just so happened that he did want to expand his territory, so he followed the new king's arrangements. This is why Chen Tian is now in this sea area.
However, the protagonist of the small world is not in the royal family. The male protagonist of this world is Crowley, the church bishop of the country where the Duke of Bartley is located.
Crowley was only thirty years old, which was very young to become a bishop. This was due to his devotion to his faith and the support of the previous bishop.
In the future, the hero will still face many difficulties, but he will overcome these difficulties step by step, continue to preach, become a true messenger of God, and let the holy light shine on the earth.
In the sect that Crowley belongs to, the god they believe in is a faction of the God of Light, and the God of the Sea is also in this faction.
Because the country they are in now is a coastal country, most people directly believe in the sea god, and fishing boats will pray to the sea god before going out to sea.
But in fact, there are no sea gods in this world anymore.
Because of the previous war of gods, many gods have fallen, and now only the God of Light and the God of Darkness are left, who have chosen to coexist peacefully in a semi-dormant state.
Therefore, there is not much magic power left in this world. Although there are still magicians and alchemists, their levels are generally not high. Only the highest-level swordsmen know how to use fighting spirit.
However, races other than humans, such as elves, dwarves, and mermaids, still exist. They just choose to live away from people, rarely appear in front of people, and gradually become legendary creatures.
Chen Tian doesn't care about these things at all, and this is not his purpose.
The protagonist's current situation is quite good. Although there are some loopholes in the small world, they are easy to repair. Therefore, Chen Tian's main purpose of coming here is to be intimate with his own Xiaobai and live a happy life.
It was that finding his lover was somewhat difficult, even though he knew it was in this sea. But this sea was too vast...
Just when Chen Tian was in distress, deep in the sea, a big fish was swimming leisurely in the water. Suddenly, a sharp claw pierced through its body.
The blood from the big fish spread out, but the owner of the sharp claws didn't care. He grabbed the fish directly in front of him, opened his mouth full of sharp teeth, and bit it hard.
He ate without a care, rudely and savagely. But a closer look at him, scraping away the scraps of flesh and blood from the large fish beside him, revealed a healthy appearance. More precisely, he looked like a mermaid.
His upper body was human-like, and his lower body was a fish tail. However, his fish tail was not as bright and beautiful as other mermaids, but a strange black-blue color that would shimmer when the light shone on it.
Its long, shiny black hair fluttered in the sea, revealing ears that were the same color as its tail and fins. Its hands had sharp claws, and between its fingers were light-colored webbed fingers.
However, although he looks very similar to a mermaid, he is not a mermaid.
If someone knowledgeable saw him, they would immediately be able to tell that he was the most ferocious sea monster in the sea and the one that should be guarded against the most.
Sirens are equally beautiful, but even more alluring than the Little Mermaid. While they share the same flawless appearance, you never know when they might open their bloody mouths and take your life in an instant.
Mermaids have beautiful singing voices, and their singing is not only beautiful but can also charm everyone, and can even emit powerful sound waves that can destroy your mind.
The most powerful sirens even have the ability to control the wind, waves and rain in the sea.
However, sirens are extremely rare, much less than mermaids. Nowadays, even though mermen can still be seen occasionally and known to exist, for people, sirens are really just legends left behind by fishermen who occasionally survive after encountering danger.
Bai ate the remaining fish in two or three bites and licked his lips. The feeling of filling his stomach made him feel very satisfied.
But then he raised his head as if sensing something. Another big ship was passing by. This was really great!
A wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Although Bai would not actively commit bloodthirsty murders, he liked to play some pranks. He often controlled the wind and waves and weather in his territory to scare the passing ships.
He was bored right now. He wondered if the screams of the people on this ship would be as entertaining as the previous ones.
However, before the Siren could carry out his plan, he suddenly saw the man standing on the deck.
In an instant, Bai felt as if something had hit him hard in the heart.
The playful smile on his face quickly disappeared, and Bai stared at Chen Tian on the deck, the look in his eyes slowly turning into obsession.
Like! Want!
Perhaps he was not proficient in human vocabulary, but the desire in his heart had completely surged up.
He had lived alone in this sea for many years, but this was the first time he felt the desire to have a partner.
He fell in love with this strange human being, and he wanted to make him his own!
However, remembering that the other person was an ordinary person, and looking down at his own blue-black fish tail and sharp claws, Bai frowned.
He knew that humans always disliked and feared them, and he didn't want to see disgust and fear in their eyes.
Although he was reluctant to admit it, he knew in his heart that mermaids were much more popular than sirens.
So, reluctantly, the sirens raised their hands above their heads and danced in a spiral in the sea, chanting the ancient songs of their own sirens.
Instantly, the whirlpool in the sea swept him away. When the whirlpool dissipated, his tail and ears became a pure white color, and his eyes turned a deep blue like the sea. Even his sharp claws had shortened significantly.
Looking up at the person standing on the deck again, Bai curved his eyebrows and the smile on the corners of his mouth slowly widened.
At this moment, Chen Tian on the ship knew nothing. He was still melancholy in his heart, not knowing when he would be able to meet his lover again.
There is a lot of food stored on the ship, but the most common food is fresh fish caught from the sea by the sailors during the voyage.
These sea fish taste very good after being cooked by the chef.
Chen Tian especially likes fried fish with sauce, but no matter how good the food tastes, it is not as good as being with your partner.
As long as he can stay by Xiaobai's side all the time, he won't feel hardship even if he doesn't have enough to eat.
If Chen Tian’s thoughts were known to other people in the Plane Management Bureau, they would definitely be surprised that their boss is actually a love-brained person.
He usually appears calm and wise, but in fact, all he can think about is his partner.
However, just as Chen Tian was lost in thought, imagining what Xiaobai would look like in this life, suddenly, a cry of surprise came from the middle of the boat.
Such noise and bustle was obviously abnormal. Chen Tian turned around and saw a group of people gathered not far away.
He felt strange and walked over. Only then did he hear the people there shouting, "Mermaid! It's a mermaid!"
What? Mermaid!
Chen Tian's eyebrows jumped when he heard this. He quickly pushed through the crowd and walked to the front. He saw that the sailors had caught a humanoid creature in the net they had caught this time.
The other person's face was hidden by his hair, and he huddled in the fishing net, shivering and not daring to move. The most obvious thing was that the other person's upper body was human, but the lower body was a beautiful white fish tail.
Chen Tian's heartbeat quickened upon seeing this. He hurried over and personally lifted the fishing net, freeing the poor 'little mermaid' who was trapped with her head down.
Feeling the familiar soul fluctuations, Chen Tian became more certain that the little thing opposite him was his lover!
Filled with joy, the man softened his tone as much as possible and said, "I've untied the fishing net. Are you okay?"
Bai slowly raised his head after hearing this, and when he revealed his face, everyone on the boat gasped.
They had all heard of the legend of mermaids and knew that the appearance of mermaids was stunning enough, but it was not until they saw the real "mermaid" that they felt that the legend was not an exaggeration.
The 'little mermaid' with long silver hair raised her head, revealing her ice-blue eyes, and looked at them pitifully.
It is not at all seductive, but rather appears to be quite pure and holy.
It was a kind of beauty that could strike their hearts directly, making everyone intoxicated and unwilling to look away.
