Chapter 58 It’s so uncomfortable. Who invented working overtime on Saturdays? *……
*
The notes are flowing.
The sound is spreading.
The singing voice floated in the air, creating a pleasant symphony. Hearing this familiar singing voice, I felt a little lost for a moment.
It's true that I asked the merman to help me seduce the Knight Commander, but I didn't plan to let him do it now. This kind of thing can't be done openly, so I have to sneak around behind the scenes and take advantage of the situation to see if I can kidnap him. How can I do it in broad daylight - after all, he is not alone, but with a group of players!
——And I didn't realize that what Kajol meant by "help me" was to let me fall from the sky.
The shadows tore a gap in the air, and countless sticky black shadows pushed me and sent me to the sound. Fortunately, I had a little brother behind me, and the dark tree shadows used thick roots to intertwine into steps, otherwise I would have to cast a magic spell for myself urgently.
It's not that it's not possible, it's just a bit rushed and doesn't look that handsome.
And when I stepped out of the shadow world, the first thing I saw was a mermaid sitting on a stone.
The shimmering water swirls among the branches and leaves, the sea and the forest merge into one. The birds are fish living in the water, and the branches and leaves are green seaweed. The monsters stop fighting and concentrate on listening to the song.
The mermaid sat among them, humming a ballad. Her long hair reminded people of the moist seaweed rising from the deep sea, outlining her pure and graceful features like a siren.
His singing voice is like ethereal and sweet sugar, and his deep red pupils reflect a soft light, which is so beautiful that it is outrageous.
But the attacker showed no mercy. The wolf cub roared and rushed straight at the other party. The mermaid didn't even raise his eyelashes, and the monster guarding beside him had already pounced on him and bit him. The werewolf's muscles swelled and tore him in half. But more monsters followed closely, until the ground was stained with blood. A monster almost bit Sean's throat, and at this time, the knight commander made a precise move. He chopped off the monster's head with a sword, and with his other hand, he grabbed Sean's collar and pulled him back from the edge of danger.
And I just happened to get in between them at this critical moment, attracting all attention from an angle that could not be ignored.
The moment the mermaid saw me, her eyes lit up and she threw Sean aside. The orc fell to the ground and staggered to his feet. I glanced at him from the corner of my eye. Unexpectedly, the danger they encountered this time was not from the monsters, but from me.
The mermaid didn't care about it at all, with her ruddy eyes curved. She swam to my side as if no one was around, her dagger-like canine teeth faintly revealed between her delicate lips, as if she was gurgling out stinging sweet juice.
"Your Majesty, do you need me to help you deal with them?"
That one sentence attracted all the hatred for me. In an instant, all the players and knights looked at me.
I stood still. I reached out and touched the mermaid's head. From the corner of my eye, I saw a group of players moving stiffly. They were obviously all taking photos crazily. It's not hard to imagine what will appear on the forum after today.
Unlike the players, all the knights stared at us warily. The knight commander, with his eyes full of fear and caution. Sean next to him growled from his throat. Thick hair grew on his cheeks.
Werewolves have the ability to transform into wild beasts, but they rarely use it, because once they transform, they lose their rationality. Especially orcs living among humans will try to avoid such situations as much as possible, unless they really think they need to fight to the death.
The mermaid looked at them with contempt, not taking them seriously at all. Now that things had come to this, it would seem a bit clumsy to find excuses to cover up.
I stroked his hair like I was stroking a puppy: "Then do as you wish, but remember not to go too far."
"Yes, sir."
The mermaid smiled, and the forest turned into the ocean, and then became the domain he dominated.
He looked down at everyone in front of him, his eyes first fell on the players, then slid to the knights. His sight was like a snake fang dripping poison. The dark shadows of the trees were staring at us from behind. For a moment, it was extremely intimidating.
The Elf Mage player with the ID [Can I go to your house to eat a billion meals] tightly grasped the staff in his hand and couldn't help swallowing his saliva: "Oh my god, this is too much, we just came here to complete a mission, how could we run into such a big guy!"
Most of the players had the same idea. They all came here to get the reward and never thought they would encounter such an accident. At the critical moment, a figure stepped forward and blocked them.
"Please don't worry, I will do my best to protect you."
The Knight Commander had a stern expression, his sword pointed at me and the mermaid. The wind blew his golden hair, and this scene should have been engraved in the template of a bard's story.
The mermaid rolled her eyes at me secretly. The long sword stabbed at his heart, and the mermaid dodged sideways. The knight's eyes were stern, and the sword light suddenly burst out, piercing the opponent's face.
The latter's expression remained unchanged. He clamped the sword between two fingers and crushed it with a snap. "You are very powerful, but unfortunately your injuries are too severe. It is impossible to kill me in this way."
"And you smell like someone I know - I hate Him, so you deserve to die."
Under the astonished gaze of the players, a dense array of titles appeared on the mermaid's head.
[Death God's Dependents·Song of the Dead·Sea Butcher·Fallen Mermaid·Forsaken God...]
The Knight Commander's face suddenly changed, and he groaned, almost sinking into the ground. The people behind him naturally couldn't bear this force, and in the sound of the mermaid's humming, the players fainted one by one, leaving only Sean and the Knight Commander.
Sean let out a deafening roar from his throat, and he was completely in a state of madness. He frantically attacked everything around him until I pressed his head and forced the little wolf cub to calm down: "Stop making trouble, it's not time for you to show up yet."
The wolf cub came closer, suddenly moved its nose, and then became suspicious and quiet. The knight commander was caught in a dilemma, and a drop of cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
"The last of our companions has fallen. Why should we continue to fight here? Don't worry, the mermaid's song is beautiful. This won't be painful. After this, we will take you to visit the Holy Son of the Church."
Hearing this, the Knight Commander's pupils shrank. The muscles in his arms flexed, and he growled, "Don't even think about it!"
Blood flowed out from the cracked skin. With the help of the Lord of Darkness, the gaze of the outside gods was blocked, and this place was made into an airtight closed space. The mermaid narrowed her eyes slightly. The beautiful singing voice was like the gurgling of flowing water, and also like the intimate love words, but what was sung was a prayer of destruction that would destroy everything.
The incomparable might crushed the knight's back, and he gasped for air. I looked down at his head and said, "Even if you insist on doing this, who will come to save you? Your gods cannot hear your prayers here."
"Humans... exist to save others."
The Knight Commander swallowed the blood in his mouth and stood up straight. His eyes were full of anger: "If God can't hear my prayers, then I will do it. I will save everyone...!"
The mermaid's expression shifted, and he gave me a questioning look. When I nodded, he continued to sing, only softer and more ethereal.
The song of destruction, the song of ruin, but also the song of hope.
Thousands of years ago, the Styx brought peace wherever it flowed. And the dead can always see a mermaid sitting and singing in the moonlight.
Pray for tranquility, wash away the past, and awaken the sleeping hometown.
The Knight Commander was unaware of this small gap, and the huge force still pinned him to the ground. The Knight gritted his teeth and slowly climbed up, not caring about his body breaking apart. The oppressed force accumulated to the extreme. He let out a low roar, and blood splattered on the ground, staining the grass red.
“Crash——”
One pair, two pairs, three pairs.
The song flows, calling for the power of struggle.
Without realizing it, white wings spread out behind him.

"Angel? No, it turns out to be the bloodline of the Holy Spirit Clan..."
The mermaid said what I wanted to say in surprise.
I have said before that gods are divided into innate and acquired gods. The Holy Spirit Clan is the so-called innate god.
They are more similar to the popular angels nowadays, but their strength is much stronger than that. All the Holy Spirits are powerful warriors or wizards since birth and possess incredible powers.
But this also caused a problem, that is, the Holy Spirit Clan could not appear in this world. Their strength was too strong, and once they were born, the whole world would collapse. Therefore, they were rarely seen in the main plane, and the relevant records were all about certain gods.
But after the rise of the acquired gods, the innate gods gradually disappeared. The power of the Holy Spirit Clan came from faith, and the disappearance of faith caused genocide. In reality, there are very few Holy Spirit Clan members left with bloodlines, and most of them are products of blood fusion with the acquired ones.
After the mermaid finished her sigh, she ruthlessly suppressed the other party. No matter how strong the Holy Spirit Clan was, they still needed the support of faith, and it was obvious how much faith the Knight Commander had.
After the other person fainted, the mermaid looked at me and said, "Is this why you want him to join us?"
"No, actually I just want you to give it a try. No matter what his bloodline is, as long as he has a trustworthy character, it's enough to make my heart flutter."
At best, it just makes me more and more interested. I can leave the good stuff to Samuel. If I was only four points in the beginning, now it has become eight points.
"No one knows Samuel better than me. Although he looks kind, he is actually treacherous and sinister. He is completely different from the ideals of the Knight Commander. If we can get him to join us, it would be like slapping Samuel in the face. Isn't that interesting?"
I can also teach those gossipers in the Styx a lesson. I have disliked them for a long time.
The mermaid showed a disapproving look, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with my respect for the Knight Commander. "Although the blood of the Holy Spirit is precious, it is not necessary for you to suffer so much. If you really want it, can't you just take it back?"
"I do want to..."
I shrugged helplessly, then laughed: "But that's a bit too boring, no matter how generous I am. Didn't Samuel betray me in the end? What I want is not just subordinates, but companions. So in order not to repeat such things, if he really doesn't want to join us-"
The mermaid understood: "I will destroy the body and remove all traces."
I:"……"
No, I mean, we need to have a heart-to-heart talk.
