Quickly wear: There are always those who are not afraid of death and want to torture me

When Mo Qin woke up, he saw a ceiling covered with soft velvet. Several beams of light shot out from the cylindrical holes fixed on it. It was so bright that it hurt his eyes.

He himself was in a large water tank, but he couldn't even swing his tail and could only float lightly on the water.

Mo Qin felt it, and found that the trauma was nothing. His throat was still a little sore from the strong acid poured into it, but he had almost recovered.

The body of a mermaid is simply a god-given creature. It is extremely tough, invulnerable, and has excellent self-healing capabilities.

He didn't expect that something terrible had happened to him just now. He came to the water in a daze and lay on the edge to check the situation around him.

It looks like a square box here, and the furnishings around it are all human things.There is also a strange small rectangular box in the box. The cloth covered on it looks very soft and has the same color as the seabed.

Faced with all the things in front of her, the little mermaid was very curious.

He has never been in contact with the human world. He has only heard about the cruelty and bloodshed of humans from the mouths of mermaids who have lived for hundreds of years, and warned them to stay away from this terrifying race.

But Larance once secretly told him that humans are a very creative species and have invented many interesting things.Although their lifespan and abilities are not as good as those of mermaids, they have established their own glorious civilization on land.

Like all mermaids who first enter the world, the little mermaid looks at everything in the human world with more curiosity than fear.

He looked around with a pair of bright eyes, full of surprise and curiosity.

At this time, the wall facing him suddenly opened a crack, and then a man walked in.

Mo Qin immediately recognized that the other party was in the same group as those weird stone fish-looking guys who had hurt him before.

Anger arose from his heart, his long tail slapped the water heavily, the fish jumped up, and was about to charge towards the man.

However, before her body left the tank, the little mermaid felt herself being pushed back by a huge force.It was as if there was an invisible cover above his head that could not be broken or penetrated.

He didn't understand why, so he could only slap his tail anxiously on the wall of the water tank, trying to break through the strange shackles.

Mussel, who had just entered the door, saw this scene and was afraid that he would hurt himself if he continued like this. He quickly walked to the water tank and shouted: "Can you calm down first? This is just a force field shield. It will not hurt you. of."

However, the little mermaid couldn't listen to him at all.He didn't know what a force field shield was, he only knew that he was trapped by a barrier that seemed to be made by magic.

The destructive struggle in the water tank became more and more intense.

Seeing this, Mussel became anxious.

He didn't want to hurt the mermaid, but if he continued like this, the guy inside would definitely hit his head and bleed.

Gritting his teeth, he turned off the force field shield around the water tank.

Almost in an instant, the mermaid jumped up from the water tank with a swish of its long tail, and pounced on Mussel with its teeth and claws.

The empire's first general, who was always known for his agility on the battlefield, didn't even react. When he came to his senses, his fragile neck was already firmly grasped by the opponent.

Several claws as sharp as steel knives rested on his cheeks. From the corner of his eye, he could still see the hard and smooth texture on it, reflecting bright light under the light.

Seeing that the mermaid's claws were about to slit his throat at the next moment, Mussel quickly held back his breath and squeezed out a sentence from his throat:

"Wait! If you kill me, you will never return to the sea... I have no ill intentions towards you... Well... please believe me..."

The mermaid's eyes narrowed into a dangerous arc, and the black pupils almost occupied the entire eye sockets, which looked weird and terrifying.

He tilted his head slightly and stared into Mussel's eyes, as if trying to read the meaning in his eyes.

After a long minute, which seemed like a century to Mussel, the mermaid's eyes slowly returned to their normal state, and the strength in her hands relaxed, actually letting him go.

Musser regained the right to breathe and immediately gasped for air.He knelt on the ground, held his throat and coughed hard several times, and it took him a while to recover.

He raised his head and saw the mermaid lying on the ground with his elbows on the ground, looking at him with an appraising expression.There was pure innocence in his eyes, like an inexperienced young boy curiously observing his every move.

If it weren't for the dull pain in his neck, Mussel would have almost believed that the other party and his appearance were harmless.

To this day, he still has lingering fears.Some regret my recklessness in turning off the force field just now.

"Can you understand what I say?" The man asked with difficulty, covering his throat.

The mermaid tilted her head and looked at him blankly, as if she didn't understand what he meant.

Mussel frowned. This was different from what his mother had told him.

Growing up, my mother’s stories about mermaids always said that they were an intelligent species that could understand human language, but they just didn’t like to communicate with people.

That's why Mussel impulsively closed the force field just now, just to reason with him.

Unexpectedly, this mermaid acted as if she didn't understand their words.

However, the story about mermaids has been passed down from generation to generation in their family. After several generations, it is normal for there to be some deviations from the facts.

"Oh, I'd better get you back into the water first." Mussel sighed.

He stood up, then spread his hands towards the mermaid to show that he had no weapons, and then tentatively leaned over to hug him.

This time, the mermaid seemed to understand what he meant and did not make any drastic move.

Instead, she looked at him with curiosity.Especially when he stood up from the ground with his legs, his big innocent black eyes became bright and extremely joyful.

Mussel gently held the little mermaid's back with one hand, and the smooth and delicate touch made the man stunned for a moment.Immediately, the other hand went around the tail, touched the spine and picked the person up.

The mermaid was lighter than he thought. When he weighed it, it felt like it weighed just over 100 kilograms.

It's hard to imagine that such a thin body could contain such powerful power. With one claw, the exoskeleton of a heavily armed soldier was broken into pieces.

With complicated emotions, Mussel carried the mermaid a few steps and gently put it into the water tank.

The mermaid frowned slightly, still resisting the water tank, for fear that that strange barrier would appear again.

Mussel quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, I won't open the force field shield anymore, and I won't lock you up anymore."

The mermaid seemed to hear the promise in his words, and entered the water tank obediently without resisting.

"Huh..." After doing all this, Mussel sighed heavily.

There is both fear and trepidation in my heart, as well as a sense of unrealistic dreaminess ---

He just picked up a mermaid.

This thought once again made him feel a surge of complicated feelings.

In fact, the reason why he did this and even made an enemy of the entire institute to bring out the mermaid was all because of a story passed down from generation to generation in their family.

Legend has it that 1000 years ago, the ancestors of the Harmans family were still fishermen on the seashore.The ship sank after a storm.But when Harmans' ancestor woke up, he found himself lying on a beach, with a strange creature sitting on the edge of the reef not far away.

He has a perfect face like a god, but his lower body is a blue fish tail, which reflects a strange light in the sun.

Later, every generation of the Hammans family would hear their elders mention the mermaid.And was warned:

"Mermaids are a kind and gentle species, but they were forced back into the deep sea by human greed. They were kind to our family, and no matter how many generations pass, Harmans will never forget it."

There is also a mermaid pattern on the Harmans family emblem, which means that the kindness will never be forgotten.

Originally, Mussel did not want to take this job and go to sea to find mermaids.

His mother once said that when mermaids reappear in the world, human greed will put them in danger again.

Therefore, although he has believed that mermaids really exist since he was a child, he has never thought of finding one to prove their authenticity.Because he doesn't want these beautiful creatures to suffer misfortune.

However, this mission was an order issued by the king himself, and Mussel could not tolerate refusal.

Although he is the sharp sword of the empire and has made great military achievements on the battlefield, when His Majesty the Emperor wants to pursue the secret of eternal life, he has to accept this seemingly absurd task.

Mussel never thought that he could actually capture a mermaid. Speaking of which, the reason for his success seemed to be because of Selene...

In short, reality is often unsatisfactory.

Witnessing such a beautiful and innocent creature being captured, even though Mussel was heartbroken, he could not disobey the emperor's order.

However, when he saw from the surveillance camera that the group of researchers in white coats, the group of scientists who claimed to be compassionate to the common people and fighting for the victory of human diseases, actually treated mermaids in an extremely cruel and inhumane way, Miao... Serge couldn't take it anymore.

After the group of people got what they wanted from the mermaid, he immediately led his subordinates into the laboratory and brought the mermaid out.

But Mussel also knew it.He was able to protect her for a while, but when he got to the shore, or when Selene asked him for someone, he couldn't keep the mermaid.

Reason and emotion clash in the mind.Although he prefers the latter and wants to let the mermaid go.But his responsibility as a soldier reminds him all the time that he serves the royal family, and everything he does must put the king's interests first.

The general, who was tormented by the two thoughts in his heart, finally let out a long sigh--it's up to him to protect him as long as he can.Just don't go against your conscience.
