Online Game: Super Beast Tamer

Chapter 425 The Story of the Undersea Kingdom

Most of the mermaids are beautiful and handsome, but Boon is an exception. He is a fat mermaid, which may be related to his profession. He is a chef and runs the largest restaurant in the mermaid village, which has three floors.

Before the players came, the private rooms on the second floor were very empty, but after the players came, business became particularly good.

The third floor is usually open during major festivals, but it is occasionally opened for our Miss An Yi, because she is so big that it is difficult for ordinary rooms to accommodate her for meals.

There are no stairs in the mermaid’s house. There is a door on each floor. There is a hole dug directly in the floor, and people can swim directly upstairs.

Boone saw An Yi, greeted her, and invited her to the third floor. Su Ming also swam up.

Two menus were provided to Su Ming and An Yi respectively.

An Yi quickly ordered dishes according to her preferences, as she was very familiar with the place.

This was Su Ming's first time here. He looked at the menu himself and found that there were many dishes that could increase attributes.

"One of the rewards for the mission?"

There are many tasks that do not seem to have good rewards, but in the process of completing them, many unexpected rewards will appear. Therefore, whether to accept the task or not cannot be entirely based on the rewards given by the system.

Su Ming calculated that if he ordered all the dishes with attribute rewards on the menu, he could increase all five dimensions by 50 points, for a total of 250 free attribute point rewards, which is equivalent to half a piece of dark gold equipment.

However, ordering all the dishes would cost 3 gold coins, which is quite expensive for an NPC.

An Yi was born into a noble family and was not short of money, but Su Ming was worried that adding too many points would affect the task evaluation, and he was reluctant to give up these attributes, so he took the initiative to say:
"I'll pay for the meal."

An Yi was ordering food when she heard Su Ming say this. She quickly shook her head and said:

"No, no, let me do it. I've eaten a little too much..."

"It's okay." Su Ming insisted, "I eat a lot too."

"Definitely not as much as me. Actually, I'm a big eater..."

"I have three pets, and they also need to eat." In order to persuade An Yi, Su Ming summoned Xiao Hei and others.

"Then let's each pay for our own." said An Yi.

Su Ming felt that the mission evaluation would not be lowered any further, so he stopped trying for it.

After returning the menu to the waiter, Su Ming asked while waiting for the food:

"Miss An Yi, what did Lady Jebilian ask you to talk to me about? I want to meet her. Can you introduce her to me? It's just a one-time meeting. It won't waste too much of her time."

“My mother won’t like you.

"Why? Did I do anything to make her angry?" Su Ming recalled what he had done in the Mermaid Village. Nothing was out of the ordinary. He was a little surprised why Jebilian hated her...

"If I tell you, don't be sad."

"What's so sad about this? Please tell me."

"Because you are too young." An Yi decided to be more ruthless and completely cut off Su Ming's thoughts. She continued, "Besides, my mother has no plans to remarry."

An Yi noticed that Su Ming's expression was frozen, so she moved her gaze to the soles of Su Ming's feet, wanting to see if any thorns would grow there.

"What kind of reason is that..." Su Ming thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out what this had to do with not seeing him. He said, "If you think I'm too small, I can grow bigger and go find her. I remember there's a potion that can make people grow bigger temporarily."

"Mr. Spore!" An Yi blushed. She looked around and made sure no one was around. She whispered, "Even if you grow bigger, you can't. I mean your age. You're too young for me, let alone my mother.

If you still don't understand, I'll tell you straight! My mother won't accept your pursuit, but you can try with me... blind date, you know? We are on a blind date now, so don't mention my mother all the time. "

Su Ming was stunned again. He combined An Yi's words with Luren's strange behavior in the past few days, and finally understood why he couldn't see Jiebilian.

It turned out that there was such a misunderstanding inside. Su Ming has always been slow to react to this kind of feeling. If An Yi hadn't told him bluntly, he would probably have found it difficult to think in this direction.

Now that he knew the reason, Su Ming confessed to An Yi. He said:

"Ms. An Yi, there must be some misunderstanding here. I am not pursuing your mother. I just want to talk to her about the crown. I noticed that there is a shell ornament on your mother's crown..."

Su Ming told An Yi what he was going to do. After hearing this, An Yi felt a little embarrassed. She said:

"I see. Mom was overthinking it. That's why needles won't grow on the soles of your feet, Spore."

Thinking of this, An Yi became happy again, and she said:

"In that case, I'd better let you go and talk to my mother in person. I didn't expect that the underwater kingdom actually exists. In this case, our Bosowa Mermaid Village may also be one of the cities left over from that ancient kingdom."

"Miss An Yi, do you know anything about the 'Moderde Kingdom'?" Su Ming asked. This is an important clue related to the main storyline. Maybe they can find the whereabouts of the fragments of the Heart of the Ocean from it.

"Well, it is said that this is a peaceful and powerful kingdom with 12 cities. They change their main cities every five years and elect a new king. Then the Scepter of Poseidon is handed over to the king to protect the safety of the 5 cities." An Yi said, "In all the storybooks I have read, kings are elected through wars. Only the king of this kingdom is elected by the people of the kingdom themselves.

The Vidi you mentioned is probably one of the kings who ruled this kingdom. He wants to reshape the Scepter of Poseidon and should visit the ruins of these twelve cities."

"Do you know where it is?" Su Ming asked.

Anyi smiled:
"How could I know? Even what I just told you, I only read from a book. If you hadn't told me that there was a 'piece of the heart of the ocean' on my mother's crown, I would have thought it was just a legend. A king who gives power to the people, even if I'm so stupid, I know that there can't be such a king in the world."

Su Ming had little political experience and had no opinion to express. His mind was still on the task, so he asked:

"Are these cities mentioned in the storybook?"

An Yi shook his head and said:
"Only that they were built on a big volcano. Do you know what a volcano is?"

Su Ming was about to answer when An Yi gave him the answer. It turned out that she knew the answer and just wanted to test Su Ming. For creatures in the sea, volcanoes are indeed strange things.

"A volcano is a mountain that can erupt fire. However, a volcano in the sea probably won't erupt fire, but scalding water." An Yi said. It can be seen that she actually doesn't understand it very well...

"In fact, what volcanoes spew out is not fire, but magma," said Su Ming.

"magma?"

"It's melted rock." Su Ming answered.

"Ah, if that's the case, it can indeed erupt in the water," An Yi said. "What a pity! I thought I found a volcano."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because when I was a kid, I was playful and swam to a very hot place. Look..." An Yi turned around and pointed at the place where the scales and skin met and said, "This place was burned and left a scar. Isn't it a bit ugly?"

"No one would go to see a place like this, so don't worry about it, Miss An Yi."

"Yeah, that's what my mom told me."

While the two were talking, Boon finally started serving the dishes... He knew An Yi would eat a lot, but he didn't expect Su Ming to eat so much as well. In order to satisfy these two guests, the chefs in the entire restaurant were doubly busy.
