After returning to the hotel and resting for an afternoon and a night, the group continued on their journey.

Since I have never seen the sea in this game, I decided to set the direction of the journey to the Aegean Sea, and by the way, I wanted to see if Irin's luck could find the legendary mermaid.

Arriving at the dock, the familiar sea breeze cheered up Rin, Kiriko, and Asuna. They were extremely happy as they had never seen the Snow White Princess before and were curious about everything they saw.

Finally, the few of them chose a merchant ship that was ready to sail and could carry both passengers and cargo. After storing the luxurious carriage in the cargo hold, they prepared to enjoy their adventure at sea.

however……

"I...I can't take it anymore. Why is the sea like this?"

Princess Snow White was not only a landlubber, but also seasick. She imitated the protagonist in the novel and stood on the deck holding the railing. Before she had time to show off, she started vomiting. Finally, she was sent back to the room to rest. She was afraid that she would not be able to create for a while.

As miserable as her was Erha, who was forgotten in the warehouse by Rin.

……

The boat had been sailing for three days, and Xuebai had adapted a lot. At least she didn't vomit when the sea was calm. Life on the boat was monotonous, and once the novelty wore off, she began to feel bored.

Fortunately, there were many guests on the ship, including merchants, travelers, and nobles, both men and women, which allowed Princess Snow White to once again demonstrate her unique skill of eavesdropping. She was almost discovered several times, but she still did not change her ways and was as naughty as a 500-year-old majestic child.

At night, after finally capturing Princess Snow White and forcing her to promise not to cause any trouble, Rin came to the bow deck with a desolate look.

It was already late at night, with only the sound of waves in his ears. He leaned against the railing with a hint of nostalgia on his face as he looked out at the pitch-black sea in the distance.

He remembered that three years ago, he was on a boat trip with his sisters. He was a loner and sat on the deck fishing alone. He was frightened by a shark that jumped towards him with its mouth wide open. He could even see its dirty fangs clearly. He didn't remember what happened after that, but a piece of the shark's meat was cooked and placed on his plate.

Taking a deep breath, Lin casually took out a small piece of precious ore from the storage compartment, and threw the stone towards the sea, imitating what he did when he was a child.

The level 50 fish with blue light that had been flying out of the sea was instantly hit and fell into a dizzy state while floating on the sea. Not long after, the water surface near it began to fluctuate. A larger fish with long sharp horns swallowed the blue light fish into its stomach. It was instantly twitching all over from the electric shock and its belly turned up.

A bigger ugly giant fish the size of a truck, covered with bumps and poison glands, and looking like a small boss at level 80 swallowed the sharp-horned fish in one gulp, and was finally stuck by its sharp horns. It floundered in the water and was apparently doomed.

A majestic, oversized white shark rushed over. There was a big bump on its head that was bulging as if it would explode at any time. This great white shark was larger than a merchant ship, and the level 119 boss logo on its head made Lin freeze.

Then the great white shark bit the giant fish, and a large amount of venom poured into its body. The blood bar slowly decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye. Seeing that only half of it was left, it swam hard, getting farther and farther away in the sea beside the ship, and even the huge red light above its head could only be seen as a small dot in front of it.

From the depths of the sea, a low and strange sound filled people with fear. In front of the ship, the sea surface slowly rose, and just looking at the outline was enough to make people forget their fear.

Its body is as big as an island, with an indescribably strange shape, a black body with red light, and countless tentacles, as if it came from the Old Ones of Cthulhu.

"Young Leviathan: Level 150??"

The terrifying monster became silent after it emerged halfway out of the water, and Rin wanted to call for Kiriko and Asuna to come to the rescue.

However, Leviathan grabbed the great white shark with its tentacles, split open its abdomen, leaving a disgusting and terrifying hole full of barbs, and dragged the great white shark in.

Finally, the huge explosion seemed to overturn the entire sea. Even from such a far distance, one could see the huge waves rising into the sky and coming, like the mouth of a giant beast, swallowing the ship directly. Fortunately, this luxurious merchant ship had a magic defense system. Although it was violently shaken, it was able to escape.

This time, everyone on the boat ran out, their faces filled with fear, and the entire deck was covered with water.

Hearing the information of 29 levels being raised, Lin fell silent. He could only mutter "I'm sorry" to himself, and then picked up the pile of equipment materials that were washed to his feet by the waves.

Behind him were Asuna and Kiriko, who had leveled up but were still confused as to what had happened.

"Don't panic. It was probably a tsunami just now. Don't worry, the defense system on my ship is one of the best in the entire continent. Let alone a tsunami, even if it is attacked by Leviathan, it can hold out for a while."

The captain's flag made Lin cover his face in pain, "That Leviathan... was just a child, and I indirectly killed it..."

Chapter 70: Mermaid is awesome

Rin mourned the young Leviathan with great guilt in her heart, and hoped that its parents would not come looking for her. She waited until the crowd around her dispersed before she explained what had just happened to Kiriko Asuna.

Asuna smiled reluctantly. "This is probably a good thing... Although I've encountered this kind of thing before, it's never been on this scale. Maybe this area welcomes you."

"..."

When I think about it this way, it seems that this is really possible. Usually, I just receive experience points and materials fall from the sky or treasure chests appear at my feet every once in a while. I have never encountered a ceremony of such a large scale.

I have a destiny to be here, which is Lin’s first impression of the Kingdom of Anshengtu.

After chatting for a while, Kiriko and Asuna left because they were sleepy, leaving Rin staring at the pitch-black sea and continuing to sigh.

At this time, he no longer dared to throw stones into the sea, for fear of accidentally killing the sea god.

I was in a daze, recalling the past and not knowing how much time had passed. The edge of the sun had appeared on the sea level in the distance and the sky was slightly white.

He took a deep breath, freshening up from his daze, feeling a little cold, and turned around to go back to the cabin to sleep.

A woman's singing voice could be heard from far away. It was intermittent and unclear, but just from a few words and scattered tones, one could feel that it was a very moving and beautiful song.

The problem is, this is the sea, where did the women come from?

Lin stopped and returned to the guardrail, looking into the distance. The sound became clearer and clearer as the ship sailed. The ethereal sound seemed to be able to wash away all the filth in a person's heart. Listening carefully, the song was filled with freedom and yearning.

The sound grew closer and the sky grew brighter until he could see the faint outline of a young girl in the distance.

Is it the legendary siren or a mermaid? In any case, it can't be human.

Suddenly, the girl's singing stopped, and Rin could vaguely see a dark shadow approaching her.

After hesitating for a while, although he was not sure about the woman's identity, he could not just stand by and watch her die, so Lin jumped into the water and took out a blue bead from the storage bar. Well, it was an item that could speed in water. I don't know which monster dropped it in the previous "battle".

The prop carried him quickly towards the girl in the distance.

Getting closer, he could already see the girl's full appearance. She looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a head of golden hair as bright as the sun, a typical European girl's features but extremely fair and delicate, perfect like a god. The most eye-catching thing was that her breasts were covered with two light blue shells, and when she tumbled, the golden fishtail with a hint of orange-red was clearly visible.

The black shadow was a strange fish formed by condensed smoke, and its material was similar to the black fog monster that Lin killed in the underground prison.

The girl was not panicked. She took out a trident from somewhere. The trident was glowing blue and she stabbed the black fog fish.

The black fog fish was not very high in level, only level 35, but the mermaid was level 60. After being attacked twice by her, the fish's health dropped instantly, and then suddenly recovered.

It's that evil wizard again.

Lin could almost conclude that this thing was released by the wizard. Unlike the last time he encountered it, this strange fish would actually increase its level while recovering its health.

"It's no use."

Lin had already approached the strange fish and warned the mermaid, but this frightened her and made her turn around and be on guard against him, ignoring the strange fish behind her.

His skills are useful on land, but not in water battles. Seeing the strange fish attacking the mermaid's back, Rin has no choice but to use props to quickly intervene and block the strange fish with his body.

As expected, all the attacks of the strange fish missed.

"It must be killed with one blow."

The girl was skeptical, and the trident in her hand emitted a blue light. She rushed towards the strange fish like a meteor and tore it into pieces.

Holding the trident in both hands, the girl remained alert. She looked at Lin and perhaps because he looked too weak, the girl actually retracted her trident.

"Thank you, innocent human. My name is Ariel Huanshi."

Uh, what the hell is an innocent human being?

The girl's voice was the most pleasant he had ever heard, and it even made him let down his guard: "Jin Gong Rin, adventurer, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Jin Gong Lin? I'll remember that. I'll repay you for your kindness when I have the chance, but I have to go home now."

Although she was very curious about the mermaid race, Rin was still quite polite: "Well, goodbye... By the way, your singing voice is really beautiful."

Ariel, who was about to dive into the sea, suddenly turned around, a little excited, and swam towards him: "Really?!"

Not knowing why she looked so excited, Rin scratched her wet hair with her hands and answered sincerely, "Yeah, it's the best thing I've ever heard."

Her eyes were a little moist: "That's great...Finally someone agrees."

"Um, haven't I heard that mermaids are good at singing? Your singing should be considered very good in the tribe, so why don't you agree?"

Ariel looked melancholy and lowered her head: "We... were forbidden to sing. I have loved it since I was a child, so I would occasionally sing secretly away from the palace."

Then she realized that the person in front of her was just a human she had just met and that she should not reveal any information casually, so she dived into the sea in a panic.

Lin was hit in the face by the sea water splashed by her fish tail. She was stunned for a while, and then she continued to swim towards the boat that was already far away with her props.

While sprinting in the water, my heart was full of curiosity.

The mermaid who is the best singer in the fairy tale is actually forbidden to sing. What kind of plot is this?

After finally climbing onto the boat, Rin, dripping wet, rushed back to the cabin, knocked on the Snow White Princess' door, then Asuna's door, and finally Kiriko's.

The three men opened the door one after another, their faces full of dissatisfaction and sleepiness.

Kiriko rubbed her eyes and found that Rin was covered in water like a drowned person, so she quickly pulled him into the room.

"What happened? Were you dragged into the water by a monster?"

Asuna and Princess Snow White looked at each other and followed in.

Rin picked up a glass of water on the table, took a few sips, and sat down, not noticing Kiriko's slightly red face and the way she was staring at the cup.

"I met a mermaid."

"Mermaid!"

The three of them exclaimed at the same time, then covered their mouths and carefully closed the door.

Princess Snow White's eyes were red as she gasped: "Did you really see her? Isn't she very beautiful, very revealing, and very suitable to be the protagonist of a novel?"

Pushing away the snow-white face that was too close to him with disgust, Lin recounted in detail what had happened before, and everyone fell into deep thought.

After a while, Tongzi looked up and said, "You said... Could it be that the oracle forbade it for the development of the plot in the future?"

"It may be because something happened in the past that caused the mermaids to forbid singing."

Asuna and Kiriko each held a view, then looked at each other unconvincedly and turned their heads away. On the side was the Snow-White Princess who was laughing foolishly for no apparent reason and kept wiping her saliva.

Chapter 71: Accept this phone and you will be my friend

For the next three days, Rin would stay on the deck for a while every night, but unfortunately she never saw the cute little mermaid Ariel again.

Finally, the merchant ship stopped at the capital of the Anshengtu Kingdom. Unlike other countries, the capital of Anshengtu was located on an island surrounded by ocean. It had a suitable climate and pleasant scenery. It was also a central route for sea transportation and had prosperous trade.

Lin hired a temporary attendant to lead the horse from the ship to the dock. Before he had taken two steps, he suddenly remembered that Erha was still in the warehouse. He said hello to Kiriko and the others and hurried back.

At this time, the Husky was like a local dog, lying on the ground pitifully. When it saw its owner coming back, it stood up excitedly, wagging its tail and was about to rush towards him. However, it fell to the ground due to hunger before it took two steps.

Lin felt guilty and distressed, and quickly took out several pieces of Asuna brand steaks from the storage column. At the same time, she prepared water and fed the Husky well.

Seeing Erha wagging his tail and eating happily without holding a grudge, Lin felt even more guilty and patted its dirty head: "I will never abandon you again."

Then, his entire hand was held in the Husky's mouth. It was wet and disgusting, so he pulled his hand out with a look of disgust and washed it vigorously.

He took the Husky out of the cargo hold and prepared to give it a bath. As soon as he reached the deck, he was suddenly hit by something on the back. Lin turned around and looked around. Apart from the busy sailors, there was nothing unusual. There was an exquisitely shaped conch on the ground.

He picked up the conch and read its introduction. It turned out to be a voice-transmitting conch. Lin took the conch back, with a puzzled look on his face, and got off the boat with Erha.

Tongzi and the others were still waiting not far away. After they met up, they headed towards the city and found a nearby hotel to stay in.

Asuna, who is full of wife attributes, volunteered to take the Husky to take a bath at the instigation of Princess Snow White. Kiriko didn't know what she was thinking, but she followed them, leaving Rin alone in the room.

Opening the game menu, Lin checked the treasures and materials he had picked up during this period of time. Just as he finished checking, the system suddenly issued a "ding dong" prompt sound.

Confused, Lin searched for a long time but couldn't figure out what the hint was. Finally, he opened the storage compartment and saw that the sound-transmitting conch was vibrating.

He took out the sound-transmitting conch shell, and it began to vibrate like a jumping D. Lin fiddled with it for a while and tried to put it to his ear. A clear and pleasant sound came out from the conch shell.

"Innocent human, are you there? Jingu Rin, please reply if you get it?"

The voice kept nagging and it sounded like that of the little mermaid. After thinking about it for a while, Rin almost understood it.

Ariel must have been following the ship all the time, and for some reason, she threw the conch to him.

"Ariel?"

"Great, human, you finally heard me."

"So, what's the matter?"

The other person's voice is so pleasant that even if he is long-winded, it makes people feel comfortable and not annoyed at all.

Anyway, it was the first time that Ariel was praised for her singing, and now that she had someone to sing with, she set her sights on Rin, hoping that he would listen to her singing from time to time.

This is a good thing!

Firstly, he got a clue of the plot, and secondly, listening to it during the day could cultivate his sentiments and help him sleep at night. The portable high-definition MP3 player was simply too good to be true, so Lin agreed without hesitation.

The little mermaid is very simple. Sometimes she sings happily, and sometimes she tells all about her family situation. For example, she is a mermaid princess after all, and she has a brother who escaped from the mermaid tribe and his whereabouts are unknown. The type of boy she likes is the type who is a little silly but very gentle. Her only dream is to become the greatest singer, and so on.

After talking for more than two hours, Ariel was so tired that she reluctantly interrupted the phone call.
