Chapter 235 The Legend of the Mermaid
"That's great, thank you!"

Upon seeing a plate of various kinds of fruit, President Lucas knew that Liang He had taken a little of everything.

Fortunately, the three of them were sitting at one table, so the amount was about the same as one person's portion, which wasn't excessive.

"You can choose what you like to eat, and I'll eat the rest."

Liang He isn't picky about fruit; she's happy as long as there's something to eat.

Besides, transporting fruit on a naval vessel is not easy, and she was too embarrassed to waste it.

"By the way, Chairman, Brother Huo, have you ever seen a mermaid?"

While enjoying breakfast, Liang He inquired about mermaids from them.

There are many legends about mermaids on Earth, so Liang He was very curious whether mermaids were like those in the legends, with human bodies and fish tails, strange and beautiful, and with melodious singing voices.

Huh? The singing voice... doesn't it sound more like a siren's signature style?
"I've never seen it, but I've heard of it."

"I have seen it, but it was many years ago."

Although the Tianyao Star Reserve where Huo An lives also has a small part of the ocean, there are no mermaids there, so it's normal that he hasn't seen one.

As for Chairman Lucas, he is older, more experienced, and more knowledgeable.

"Are you curious about what mermaids look like?"

Thanks to Liang He's recommendation, President Lucas taught himself how to use short videos and has become very proficient at it. Naturally, he would occasionally come across legends about mermaids and the like.

Poor President Lucas had no idea that this was a big data analysis unique to Earth, all because they casually mentioned it during a conversation.

"Hmm, are they really human torsos with fish tails?"

Liang He looked at President Lucas expectantly, feeling that the food in her bowl didn't smell so good anymore.

She finally understands why so many people love gossip; when something interesting happens, they really want to know the details as soon as possible.

"That's right, and the mermaids, just like their names, are all beautiful."

Seeing that Liang He was interested, President Lucas got enthusiastic and started to explain to her about mermaids.

"Mermaids are a special race in interstellar space. They generally live on ocean-based planets and mostly live in groups."

Mermaids are a rather special existence, whether in human society or among beastmen.

Because they are born half-beast and half-human, their talents are limited, and no SSS-level beastman has ever appeared. Naturally, they also do not have the problem of an evolution period.

"Perhaps due to their clan rules, mermaids rarely appear in front of people, let alone have any contact with humans. If they sense the presence of ships or similar vessels nearby, they will deliberately avoid them."

This situation likely arose because the mermaid's half-beast form initially drew considerable criticism and even rejection.

However, since the orcs gradually became the main force of the Federation, mermaids, as one of the few marine orcs and existing in a group, naturally became the focus of attention.

"The Federation once tried to communicate with the mermaid clan in order to reach a consensus and jointly protect the sea area."

As for the outcome of the negotiations, it wasn't exactly a success, but it wasn't a failure either.

The mermaids stated that the ocean is their home, and they will do their best to protect it even if the Federation doesn't say so.

"Later, the mermaid clan tacitly agreed to protect the sea together, and even when they found someone in distress, they were willing to lend a helping hand and send the person back safely."

In fact, regarding this point, it's not just mermaids; most marine creatures, through long-term coexistence with humans, have developed some skill in saving lives.

Even the killer whale, a veritable menace in the ocean, will choose to save people rather than harm them.

"So that's it..."

Liang He had thought she would have a chance to meet the mermaid, but after hearing what President Lucas said, she suddenly felt that her request was a bit excessive.

She felt it was best not to disturb the peaceful life of the mermaid clan.

"Wow!"

Liang He quickly finished her breakfast and just then heard the cry of a blue falcon coming from outside the restaurant, so she hurriedly went out to see what was going on.

"Langon?"

As soon as Liang He stepped out of the restaurant, she saw a group of people gathered around, pointing and whispering. She could vaguely see the little tuft of hair on Landon's head swaying back and forth.

"Screech~" Despite the surrounding noise, the Azure Falcon still keenly recognized Liang He's voice and immediately flapped its wings, trying to fly towards her.

"Ah! My clothes!"

With its slightly damp wings, Landon's flight immediately sprayed water droplets onto the onlookers, causing widespread damage.

"Pfft... I feel like I washed my face for nothing."

The person who was speaking with their mouth open was clearly in a worse situation than the person whose clothes were only slightly wet.

They kept spitting out the seawater they had accidentally swallowed.

"I'm so sorry, Langton didn't mean it. Are you all alright?"

As the keeper of the Azure Falcon, Liang He is now also considered his guardian. Since Landon has made a mistake, she naturally has to apologize on his behalf.

"It's alright, it's alright, we were just too close, it's not Langdon's fault..."

The sailor who almost called out to Lord Landon was quickly covered up by his colleague.

"Yes, yes, it has nothing to do with Landon. We were just too curious and didn't pay attention."

Fearing they might let something slip, the sailors had already begun their clandestine retreat.

If they run into Deputy District Chief Ge Lin who's looking for Liang He, then they're doomed; he's their current boss.

"Huh? Are you really okay?"

Seeing them scatter like birds and beasts, Liang He was a little confused. She exchanged a glance with Landon, not understanding what was going on, and finally silently shut her mouth.

Forget it, they're not bothered by it anymore, so why should she hold onto it?

"You'd better be more careful next time, okay?"

Liang He gently poked Landon's head, said something to him with a mix of amusement and exasperation, and then looked at the area that had been surrounded by the sailors.

As soon as the person left, the area became empty, and Liang He finally understood what had happened.

"How did you catch so many fish?"

Liang He stared wide-eyed, unable to understand how the Azure Falcon could catch several hundred pounds of fish in such a short time.

It seems like there's enough food for the whole ship's passengers.

"Wow!"

Landon, eager to boast, was so excited he wanted to take off, but Liang He quickly pressed him down.

"Don't rush to fly, or you'll splash me with water again later."

She doesn't want to drink seawater.

It was seawater that had soaked eagle feathers.

"Wow..."

Sensing the disdain in Liang He's words, Landon reluctantly retracted its wings and moved its talons in small, insignificant steps.

Hawkeye stopped looking at Liang He and hung his head, staring at the ground, looking extremely pitiful.

"Okay, okay, I didn't mean to criticize you."

Liang He, once again being manipulated by the fluffy creature, sighed helplessly and then gently hugged him to comfort him.

"Wow~"

Landon, who was always very easy to coax when facing Liang He, lowered his head slightly and saw the top of Liang He's fluffy head, and was instantly happy.

"Wow!"

Landon began to show off his hunt to Liang He.

"Wow! Are all these fish caught by the Azure Falcon? That's amazing!"

Babies, if you think it's good, could you give it a five-star review? Love you all!
