from the deep sea

In the early morning, good news came from the delivery room.The younger female mermaid knelt down in front of the priest holding the egg, and prayed for the new life as usual, praying for peace.

Nan Yu symbolically touched the soft egg.In the past, this was an honor that could only be obtained by the descendants of the double species of mermaid—nonsense, who has time to stay in the temple every day to engage in feudal superstition blessings.The mermaids of the double species can hold eggs around the earth several times to chase and intercept the temple sacrifices, but the mermaids of the mixed species and the intermediate species cannot do so.

After the ceremony, the female hybrid put the eggs back into the mother's body, and the other hybrid mermaid pointed to the somewhat torn genital cavity of the female to signal the human mermaid doctor to take follow-up treatment.

With the warm thanks from Pat's family, Nan Yu rolled up the water curtain at the beach and sent away the two female mermaids. Once the two female mermaids entered the sea, they swam away quickly without looking back.

Looking back at the disappointed eyes of the mermaid expert, Nan Yu showed a half-smile expression: "Have you ever seen a female mermaid? Curious? Want to study it?"

Slightly raised thin lips, raised eye corners, seductive tone and cold and indifferent eyes.These inadvertent expressions remind modern humans that even on land, this is still a sea monster full of danger.It's like in ancient times, entrenched on the reef, setting off a violent storm, and inducing sailors to lead the ship to the sunken way back.

The air was quiet for a moment, and Nan Yu snorted softly and jumped into the sea: "Ah, if you still remember that this is a deal, it should be breakfast time now."

On the other side, Boyce, who ate and drank all night, was sent back to the sea by Nan Yu.After swimming hundreds of nautical miles, I realized: Fuck, I actually forgot to bring the officiant back to share the joys and sorrows!

……

Regardless of the reaction of the ancient mermaid, the humans are a little panicked anyway.

The high-level federation held a video conference for several days to discuss the future development path with the ancient mermaid.Their first conclusion was that the heavy mermaid is an extremely dangerous species that needs to be treated with care.

"Whether it is supernatural power or spiritual power, they are areas that we don't understand deeply. We have never heard of the former, and the latter—the opponent's mental power system seems to be different from ours."

"Seconded."

"However, the hybrid and intermediate species among the ancient mermaids seem to be closer to modern mermaids. Maybe we can try to make friends with these mermaids."

"Also, about the female in the mermaid—"

"Wait, I think it's better not to pay too much attention to the female mermaids of the ancient mermaids."

"why?"

"If you were on Central Island that day, you would know why. The priest of the other side's temple is very jealous of the idea of ​​humans beating mermaids. What we need is peaceful development, at least in a short period of time without touching their bottom line."

"Another way of thinking, if humans and ancient mermaids can live in harmony, is it possible to intermarry?"

"A very nice idea."

"The future may not be impossible, as long as we show enough sincerity."

"You are right. The ancient mermaid's range of activities is the sea, which is their biggest limitation. From this point of view, we don't have to worry about the ancient mermaid's harm to the Federation."

"Then, the next question is, how to explain the existence of ancient mermaids to the public?"

"Perhaps, an open house on Central Island would be a good choice."

On weekends, the day before the opening day of Central Island.

Archibald brought his youngest son to Central Island and first visited Hyde who had been in Central Island for many days.After not seeing each other for a few days, Archibald saw the sad expression on his family's fish face, immediately put down his youngest son, and went forward to hug Hyde: "What's the matter?"

Hyde glanced at him and said, "What kind of mermaid do you think Rachel will find in the future?"

"Of course it's a mermaid as beautiful and gentle as you." Archibald opened his mouth and said.In the next second, he thought that the object of his son's obsession seemed to be an ancient mermaid, or the male of the ancient mermaid.

"..." After a few seconds of embarrassing silence, Archibald said: "The golden tail seems to be the pure blood of the ancient mermaids. Their assessment level is the danger of the red level. My dear, I feel the same as you. Advise our eldest son."

At first, I thought the ancient mermaids were extremely dangerous, and it was best not to approach them casually. However, after a few days of getting along, Hyde was about to be brainwashed: "Actually, for the ancient mermaids, as long as we don't touch each other's minefields, they are not Will take the initiative to deal with humans."

"You want to say, in fact, they are not interested in humans?"

Hyde nodded: "What I'm more worried about now is what will happen if the two males are together."

Archibald thought for a while and said, "One of them will go for mermaid surgery? Or simply test tube a child, and some don't want a child. Why are you worried about this? There aren't many such combinations in modern society?"

"What about humans and a male mermaid?"

Archibald belatedly realized that Hyde was talking about their eldest son and the golden tail.He laughed twice: "It should be... no?"

Hyde thought about it for a while: "That's right, the other party's Golden Tail probably doesn't like Rachel."

Caesar, who was listening to his parents' conversation, raised his head and said, "Brother, do you want a mermaid? Or a cool golden tail?"

"Cool?" Hyde was taken aback.

Caesar shook his head and said, "That's right, the golden fish tail. It is said on the Internet that this color is like a treasure in the sea."

"Because the news of the ancient mermaid is to be announced to the public, the early stage of public opinion guidance has already begun on the Internet." Archibald added.

"That's it." Hyde said, "Are you planning to communicate peacefully?"

"Yes, this is the intention now."

Hyde didn't say anything more, but turned to Caesar and said, "Want to see your good friend?"

"Alan!" Caesar jumped up and down twice excitedly.

"Let's go, I asked Dr. Lin, Alan's transformation operation is scheduled for two weeks later, I can let you play for a while today."

The Bering Strait connects the Arctic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean.Although most of the land was submerged after the sea level rose and the ocean area reached 90%, the ancient mermaids still habitually used the previous division points.This is not a difficult thing for ancient mermaids: because they can see underwater.

The Bering Sea, where the Bering Strait is located, is the northernmost sea area of ​​the Pacific Ocean. It has a high latitude and a cold climate all year round. There are many snowstorms in winter, and there are still ice floes on the sea even in midsummer.

Anfei actually didn't want to come to the Bering Strait, but the magnetic field positioning disorder caused her to get lost here inexplicably.Anfei realized that he wanted to go to Hawaii but swam in the wrong direction: "What broken the magnetic field, broken the positioning, is there any black technology GPS navigation that can be used underwater, I will buy a car!"

Thetis: "You... lost a little far."

"I found a shark for a ride on the road, who knew that when I woke up..."

Doris: "Sounds a bit miserable."

"Wait, why did you go to Hawaii? Didn't you agree to find the officiant?" Boyce asked strangely when he heard Silvertail's chat.

"My friend, except for Anfei who is on duty at the temple to pray, we have been in Hawaii." Doris sat on the sunken ship, the tall mast was just level with the sea, making it look like she was sitting directly on the sea.

"I'm about to set off for the Central Island. You chased the sailfish and ran away a few days ago, okay?" Doris sewed the thin silk in her hand while talking.This kind of fabric is woven from the silk spun out by sea spiders in the deep sea. There was no specific name at first, but the mermaids in Hua Kingdom were called "雪绡" in ancient books. name.

This kind of silk will not be eroded by seawater in the sea, can be preserved for a long time, and will not stick to water, so it is very popular among female mermaids.It's a pity that the output is very small, and most of them are in the hands of the heavy species of mermaids. The intermediate species and mixed species are mostly made of another kind of seagrass fiber.

Seigne emerged from the water and handed Doris another piece of cloth: "Boys, I heard you had a nice night with a human?"

Boyce: "Huh? Who did you hear that from?"

Purebloods: "Officer."

Boyce was taken aback, and first shouted: "You guys blocked me on the phone!" Then he shook his head and said, "No, what is a happy night, we just had a meal together."

"But my brother said that Beyce still has that human in his arms." Nan Luo frowned and said, "Will Beyce want to fall in love with a human in the future?"

Thetis pinched Little Golden Tail's face: "Don't worry, as long as Boyce is not stupid enough to go to live on land, the ocean is our playground."

Nan Luo thought for a while, although he doesn't like humans very much, but... Humans born from mermaids are probably of mixed blood, right?For the sake of their breeder's tail, the hostile attitude can be reduced a little bit, really just a little bit.

After not receiving a reply for a long time, Boyce was a little uneasy: "Hey, hey, aren't you talking about weird things?"

"Where, we are serious."

"Friends!" Anfei suddenly interrupted the conversation forcefully: "I have a lot of sea urchins here!"

The whole topic changed immediately.

"Please bring some back to me!"

"Takeaway, takeaway, I want to order takeaway."

"Leave me some."

"Didn't you just finish the big dinner yesterday?"

"I don't think it's too much."

Fortunately, the ancient mermaids now remember to block the global radio communication, otherwise, after humans can decipher it, they will find out: what are these mermaids talking about every day?

"Put your belly first, Nan Yu explained that he will treat us to a good meal tomorrow." An Fei said while putting sea urchins in a simple bag made of seaweed: "I only have one hope now—"

"Can you find another fish for a ride back?"
