Dancing Night

After Ding Ding's case was over, both Xiaobei and Xiao Hua received beautiful rings. Reciprocity is a must in a relationship, so it is appropriate to give gifts back.

Xiao Hua was rich and powerful, so he buried Qi Liao in the pile of gifts. Qi Liao had been enjoying his life recently, and the Wolf King was so eager to be "nurtured". Seeing what Xiao Hua bought for him, everyone shouted, "It's the other way around." Inverted!"

Xiaobei thinks about it every day, what gift should he give Lan Ming in return?He doesn't have that much money to support Lan Ming, and he still has to save Gurui's education funds. He wants to break his head every day, but Lan Ming has long forgotten about it. Xiaobei has been very docile recently, so he is naturally in a good mood.

For half a month, E had nothing to do.

Since returning from the different world, everyone in E has been busy for a while, catching all the gods, demons and ghosts who sneaked in from the different world, and then they are free, and the world is peaceful.

At noon that day, Xiaobei came back from dancing practice. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a row of people on the sofa, all playing games on the computer.

Xiaobei looked helplessly at a group of gods and demons who had become otaku. The Gurui on his shoulders twisted his tail and flapped his wings and flew over, taking out a small P to play with Lan Ming.

Xiaobei picked him up and confiscated his game console, "Only one hour a day is allowed!"

Gurui wrinkled his face and began to complain, Xiaobei drove to see the otaku sitting in rows in the room, "Each of you is only allowed to play for one hour a day, set a good example for Gurui!"

Qi Liao and Lan Ming raised their heads, seeing the expressions of Xiao Hua and Xiaobei, they had no choice but to stop playing games.

Everyone stopped typing, except Xiesel, who was still lying in front of the computer, chatting with someone.

Xiaobei leaned over to look, "Xissel?"

"Shh!" Hissel typed on the keyboard earnestly, "In a trench in the Pacific Ocean, a mutated mermaid was found."

"Mutated?" Xiaobei was interested, "Mermaids still have mutants? Didn't they say they're dying?"

Sphinx flicked his tail, "Will Poseidon recover?"

"Poseidon wants us to investigate." Xiesel pointed out the images obtained from the first investigation and showed them to Xiaobei, "Look, there are a dozen or so in the trench."

"So many?" Lan Ming was curious, "Isn't that a new species?"

"This area has been very unsettled recently. Many ships and people have disappeared. Everyone thinks it's pirates, but it's not." Xissel pointed out another picture to show Xiaobei and the others, "Look at the mermaid this time. .”

"Wow!" Xiaobei and the others spoke in unison.

Gurui flapped his wings happily, "Beauty! Beauty!"

This time the mermaid is indeed beautiful, with outstanding body proportions, long seaweed green hair, exquisite facial features, and colorful fin-like ears.Big eyes are watery, all of them look pitiful, slender, a fish tail is three body long, the tail is spread out, there are long forked fins on both sides, slender hands, narrow shoulders, and a dorsal fin.

"It's so beautiful!" Xiaobei couldn't help asking, "It's so beautiful, is it a man-eater?"

Xissel looked at Xiaobei, and clicked another picture, "The comparison picture between them and the white whale."

"Bigger than a white whale?!" Everyone said in unison, "Is this the newly born white fungus?"

"It's an adult!" Xiesel changed the picture, "The length of the mermaid this time ranges from five to ten meters, and it's very huge."

"How could it be so big?

"Look at the picture of them eating again." Xiesel dragged out another picture. At this moment, Xiaobei and the others are completely disgusted. The lovely mermaid is opening her bloody mouth and showing her fangs. , biting a large fish "carcass."

"It's really a mermaid." Bailou couldn't help frowning, "Why did it multiply suddenly and become bigger?"

"Poseidon said that there seems to be something unstable in the trench." Hissel didn't know where, and even found the sonar image, and showed Xiaobei and the others, "Look, there is a big shadow."

"There is still a large set of data." Hissel showed everyone the information that Poseidon had passed to him.

Xiaobei, Xiao Hua, and Bailou are the only ones who often use the "brain" component, and Lan Ming and Qi Liao basically have their brains resting every day.Xiaobei looked at it for a long time but couldn't understand it, so he asked Xissel, "What does it mean?"

"Poseidon said that there was an earthquake not long ago, and there seemed to be a crack at the bottom. I don't know if the mermaid swam out of the crack." Hissel said, "Poseidon asked us if we want to investigate? "

Everyone glanced at each other, of course the free underwater sightseeing tour was gone, not to mention there were few people watching, they all nodded and said they would go!

As soon as Xiaobei heard about "Undersea Tour", he gave Guru Yi to Lan Ming and asked him to take a bath with him.

Lan Ming and Gurui were driven upstairs, Xiaobei went to ask Xissel, "Are there any special souvenirs in the sea?"

Sissel was a little confused, "Souvenir?"

"Aren't there many treasures in the sea, such as pearls, shells and precious stones?" Xiaobei held his chin in thought, "A special souvenir?"

"What are you going to use it for?" Hissel was puzzled, "Poseidon should have a lot of them, I'll ask him to send them to you."

Xiaobei looked upstairs again, "I want to give Lan Ming a gift in return."

"Wouldn't it be better if you just pack yourself up for him?" Heesel said lightly, "Lan Ming is not a human being, and he doesn't want gifts and the like. If you give him a diamond, he might still wonder what to do with a stone. .”

"Eternal memory or something..."

"Humans want eternity because there is no way to be eternal." Bai Lou interjected, "Lan Ming himself is eternal, so he probably doesn't understand these things."

Xiaobei thought about it, and felt that this was the same thing. He sat on the sofa and rubbed his face, thinking about it, but couldn't think of what to give.

When Lan Ming rubbed the wet Gurui with a bath towel and went downstairs, he saw Xiaobei "struggling" on the sofa.I don't understand, why is Beibei entangled again?

While eating dinner, Heather got a call, surprised "caught a mermaid?"

Everyone was also surprised, "Can you catch that one? It's no wonder it's Poseidon."

"Temporarily locked in the aquarium." Hissel closed the phone, "It seems that something is not right, let's go and have a look at night?"

"It's locked in the aquarium?" Xiaobei frowned, "Can it be used for exhibition?"

"Where to hide for now." Hissel shook his head, "There are people from us in the aquarium."

Everyone naturally followed to see the freshness, so they drove to the aquarium together.There was no one in the aquarium at night, and a manager came out to greet everyone, and led everyone to the closed venue at the back.

Walking through the long glass tube, you can see fish swimming in the sea on both sides.

A couple of particularly cute fish seemed to know Hissel and followed him around.Everyone arrived in front of a glass wall at the end of the aquarium, and there was nothing in the thick dark green sea water.

"Here?" Xiaobei was curious.

"Yeah." The manager nodded.While stretching out his hand, he tapped on the glass wall, and suddenly... felt a rush of water, and something rushed towards him.

With a "boom", he bumped his head against the thick glass wall.

The wall vibrated visibly, and everyone took a step back, so fierce!

At this moment, the mermaid's appearance has been clearly seen. Everyone thinks it is beautiful in the picture, but in reality, they just think "scary!" because it is too huge!

No matter how beautiful your face is, magnified four or five times, and placed in front of you, it will only make people feel horrible.Especially when her face is pure white and blue, in the pitch black water, with scales on her neck and chest, and fins with barbs...it really doesn't look like a beauty or anything.

The mermaid has big eyes, the eyeballs are as big as bowling balls, aren't they "watery", and they are staring at everyone in front of them.From that look, it can be seen that it is very dissatisfied with being trapped in the glass aquarium, not only because it looks like a human, but also because of its thinking!

Looking at its flat chest, although the hair is very long, it must be a man, right?Or is this mermaid gender-neutral?

Sphinx took a closer look, "This kind of mermaid... really should be extinct?"

Xissel received a text message from Poseidon, saying that they couldn't get the mermaid to speak, so he asked Xiaobei to help take a look at its past and what it was hiding.

Xiaobei reached out to touch the glass curtain wall.

Seeing him approaching, the mermaid stared at him.It doesn't feel good to be stared at by such a big eyeball, Xiaobei tried his best to concentrate.

Gurui sat on Beibei's shoulders, looked up at the big face, stretched out his small hand and patted his nose.

The mermaid was slightly stunned, tilted his head, and stared at Gurui with his mouth open, as if he was irritated.Xiaobei was startled, and retreated subconsciously.The mermaid's mouth is full of steel nail-like teeth, it really is a beast!

"I've seen this kind of mermaid before." Lan Ming suddenly said, "It's in the book."

"Books?" Everyone looked at Lan Ming in surprise, their eyes seemed to ask - so you can also read books? !

Lan Ming was speechless, so he could only explain, "It's the mermaid from the legendary lost city!"

"The Lost City?" Images of N science fiction movies and horror movies flashed through Xiaobei's head, and he asked Lan Ming, "How big is the city, with so many mermaids?"

Lan Ming reached out, touched the glass wall, and looked at the huge mermaid opposite, "This kind of mermaid is a sign of the end."

Lan Ming's words made everyone frown—doomsday?The other world almost caused chaos in the world before, but this time a mermaid came out to herald the end, what's going on?

Xissel seemed to support Lan Ming's point of view. He continued to read the text messages and told Xiaobei and the others, "Poseidon also said the same, saying that it was a sign of the end, and Lucifer also said that this kind of fish is from the lost. If it comes out of the city, it may bring disaster, so we have to be careful."

Everyone seriously doubted what kind of so-called "disaster" it was, and wondered why it was such a big deal, so let them investigate.

Xiaobei reached out and pressed the glass curtain wall, feeling the mermaid's "past"...

Slowly closing his eyes, Xiaobei instantly merged into the torrent of consciousness. In front of his eyes, a huge gap appeared in the dark bottom of the sea. Along the gap, there were unidentifiable but equally huge fish passing by.

In the end, the entry section knew that the border disappeared, and a strange city appeared directly below, with star-like lights shining, and the program was pitch-black, but there were many construction areas.

Really the city!Xiaobei saw a huge mermaid shuttling above the city, and the brightly lit city below was silent.Xiaobei finds it unbelievable, a city under the sea?Could it be under the jurisdiction of Poseidon?Or that aliens have always lived in the core of the earth?

But as the mermaid went downstream, Xiaobei discovered that this was a submerged city, and the reason why it was still bright was because the weird power supply system seemed not to have been destroyed.So long in sea water, it didn't cut off the city's electricity.The details in the city are intact and have not been corroded by sea water, just like a city specimen displayed on the seabed.

Xiaobei couldn't understand the principle, so he could only observe slowly. In the end, he found that it was an empty city with bones everywhere. There were cars and buses at the bottom of the city. This is a modern city belonging to human beings. Why did it change? To the bottom of the sea?

Xiaobei was completely taken aback—this is, what's going on?Hallucination?Thinking of the word "illusion", I immediately felt my body sink, then lighten again...

Xiaobei was puzzled, he felt his body sinking slowly as if he had entered the water, and he could feel the real touch of the skin soaked in sea water, he stretched out his hand and flung it out twice, instantly dumbfounded—hand!He saw his hand!Xiaobei looked around, and found that he was actually floating in the water above this fake city, and he had entered the city... a different space that only had virtual observation, the city of mermaid's memory.

Above the head, gradually several huge mermaids gathered, staring at Xiaobei curiously.Xiaobei suddenly felt that there seemed to be someone behind him, turned his head suddenly, and a big face appeared in front of him.

"Ah!" Xiaobei exclaimed, hearing his own voice.

Behind him was the gigantic mermaid that was supposed to be kept in the aquarium.

He stared at himself with a pair of big eyes, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and smiled.Xiaobei stepped back, looked down and saw his hands, feet and body... materialized!He originally entered the other party's memory, but it materialized!Did he travel through time, or was he deluded by hallucinations?

There are huge and weird mermaids wandering around in the dark sea water, Xiaobei is helpless and nervous.

Then I heard the mermaid behind me suddenly yell twice, making strange noises.

Xiaobei looked at it, it swam up to Xiaobei's leg, it was not aggressive, it just moved its body and turned its back to him, as if letting him ride up.

Xiaobei hesitated for a moment, stepped over, the mermaid's dorsal fin arched, and just as Xiaobei reached out to grab it, with a "swish", Xiaobei followed the mermaid and quickly swam to the center of the city.

……

"Beibei!" Lan Ming supported the unconscious Xiaobei, felt his pulse, and found that Xiaobei seemed to be asleep.

Gurui yanked Xiaobei's hair back and forth, but Beibei didn't wake up at all.

Lan Ming suddenly looked up at the mermaid in the aquarium, and saw an inexplicable smile in his big eyes.

"Where did you get Beibei?" Lan Ming kicked the glass curtain wall with a "bang".

The administrator waved his hands with a mournful face, "Don't break it, the sea water will pour in."

Lan Ming didn't care about these things, he stared at the mermaid and asked, "Where are the others?"

After a long time, the mermaid finally opened its mouth, and everyone heard a strange and ethereal voice, saying, "City of Doom."
