Chapter 183

"Okay, mom, I love you, mom. I will definitely solve it cleanly, dress up beautifully, and never embarrass you!"

Freya didn't expect that she, a social animal who wandered on the edge of the plot, would be hit by a pie in the sky one day.

Chapter 94 I'm like a fish in your pond

Early the next morning, Rin, Emilia and Angela stood on an abandoned sentry tower behind the crowd.

This was a military building used by the islanders to resist when fighting against the demons.

Later, when the whole continent began to enter a period of peace and recuperation, the villagers who lacked stone materials demolished several sentry towers and arrow towers, and finally only this symbolic one remained.

Although it has not been demolished, it has not been repaired for more than 20 years. It has been dilapidated, the ladder has been broken, and people can collapse directly when they step on the wooden floor.

Rin found out the location of the sacrifice yesterday, and found such a great location after a field investigation.

After that, when the villagers finished collecting the sunflowers, they specially spent some money to hire a dozen people to repair the place with wood to ensure that it would not collapse.

The sacrifice was about to begin, and standing here could observe the situation at all times and provide enough sense of security.

Rin proudly raised his eyebrows at Fei Miao: "How about it, the place I chose is not bad? Tsk tsk, why didn't you think of it before, this is the difference in IQ."

Emilia's dull eyes were looking at the waves in the distance. Hearing this, her blue eyes stared at Rin for a few seconds.

There was no rebuttal or response, and there was a hint of pampering.

Since she left an indelible shadow when she was a child, she has never participated again. This time, standing with Rin, she must be bolder.

"You have nothing to be proud of, right? You can show your superiority with such a trivial thing, tsk tsk."

Angela's sarcastic voice sounded in her ears. How could Rin accept it? She directly bullied her teacher and started to argue with her teacher.

Just as they were arguing, the villagers who were chanting prayers in a low voice suddenly cheered.

"Here they come! The messenger of the sea god is here!"

"Watch your children, don't let them go forward, everyone make room."

At Dasim's command, the others hurriedly drove the children who were still playing to the back, and told them not to run around, otherwise they would be taken into the sea by the messenger.

Sarah also separated from her friends, hid behind the wooden box, and waved in the direction of Lin.

As the most important event on the island every year, both adults and children must participate in the sacrifice.

Because it is rumored that the messenger of the sea god will not only bring everyone a good harvest, protect them from being invaded by the black sea monster, but also bless the children to grow up healthy and safe.

So many children were scared to tears in previous years, but they still followed the custom of the whole island participating together.

Of course, most children are relatively obedient, and only Fei Miao was too naughty when he was a child, and happened to be surrounded by fish and scared out of his mind.

She hates fish, in addition to this, another key factor is fish bones.

Being too young, he was not good at dealing with fish bones. Besides, he was regarded as a superior by the heroes, so the adults would not help him pick out the bones.

He felt the pain of eating fish bones, but because his talent could not be revealed, every time he ate fish was torture, and he naturally hated it.

The sudden rise of the waves interrupted Lin's thinking, and his eyes subconsciously looked over.

The originally calm sea surface began to become restless, and the waves rolled up and hit the coast.

On the undulating sea surface, a huge head emerged from the waves, and then the body became taller and bigger, like a small mountain.

"It's so big, the illustrations didn't say that this guy is so big."

Rin widened her eyes and looked at the body that was as big as Godzilla, and the appearance was naturally extremely ugly.

A shark-like head, a high bulge, and scissor legs that are particularly small compared to the huge body. The belly is as big as a bubble and is translucent, and you can see dense black spots inside.

Compared to the abstract illustration, its real appearance is more disgusting than imagined. I always feel like I have seen this appearance in a horror comic.

"It's great that this thing can be written in the book." Angela explained, "The land fish lurking in the deep sea is a very rare gregarious fish. If it weren't for the fact that the sacrificial hymn actually imitated the call, and the strong smell of the collected tree sunflowers, it would not attract the land fish queen."

Rin nodded, pointed to the belly of the large land fish and asked: "Is it its fish eggs in there? Did it breed on the shore?"

"No, this kind of fish is quite special. The fish eggs have already hatched in the belly, but because the sea is dangerous, the queen fish will find an uninhabited island with tree sunflowers, and then release the small fish, and leave with the fish that have replenished nutrition and eaten and drunk enough."

"Uh, that is to say, there are small fish in its belly..."

Rin already felt a little scared, and now looking at the land fish king, he saw it standing in the waves, about ten meters away from the shore, with its belly raised.

After that, a large number of fish gushed out of its belly and fell into the sea one after another, and the farther ones had already sprayed onto the shore.

Some of these fish were as big as volleyballs, while others were as big as an adult's fist. They were swept onto the shore by the waves.

After shaking off the seawater on their bodies, their skin soon secreted a large amount of mucus, which was shiny in the sun, and released green gas when they saw the crowd.

Rin's hair stood on end, and he couldn't help but take a half step back.

Turning her head to look at Fei Miao again, Emilia's eyes had turned into cat pupils, her hair was prickly, and the kitten's fur had exploded, and it was spinning back and forth restlessly.

Rin grabbed her and pushed her into his arms, patted her back and smoothed her hair, and said disgustedly: "What are you afraid of? It's just a bunch of four-legged fish. How dare you be a brave person like this? Why don't you just abdicate and give way to others?" Just work for me for a few days, it’s a shame.”

Under his "comfort", Emilia's mood eased a little, but her cat-like eyes had not yet returned to normal.

Angela was stunned when she saw it, and she suddenly felt pity for the future of the human camp.

Fortunately, she is not a human, but a witch, otherwise she might be even more pessimistic.

Oh, wait!

The human hero was extremely afraid of the information about the four-legged fish, so he went to the Demon King's City to sell it. I wonder if he could sell it for tens of millions of gold coins and use it as entertainment?

No, no, the Demon King's Castle is still a bit dangerous, and the current Demon King is not easy to deal with.

Or simply use it to threaten this kid and let him tear up the IOU, wouldn't it be nice?

The more Angela thought about it, the more she felt that this plan was feasible. She coughed slightly and was about to discuss the deal with Rin, but she saw the two of them kissing again.

And during this kiss, the hero somehow returned to normal, and even the hand holding the sword stopped shaking.

This... this saliva exchange can be so effective?

The plan she had just thought of was stillborn. Angela was secretly resentful and almost couldn't help but kick Lin down.

On the field, the group of small land fishes had already got into the heap of anemone trees, eating wildly at the green fruits, and soon their bellies were round.

Then the King of Land Fish let out a sharp roar that sounded like a whale, and the small fish quickly swung their feet and crawled away.

At this time, it was seen that it stretched out its long tongue like a toad, rolled up a bunch of sunflowers on the shore, and chewed them.

After a few mouthfuls, the crushed green juice was left everywhere on the shore.

Those little fish came back together again, some chasing each other and playing, some rolling lazily on the ground, and others curiously running around the crowd like crabs.

At least a thousand small fish were crowded on the shore, which was a bit scary. They were even more excited when they saw the children, but they were blocked by the crowd and piled wooden boxes, so they could only spin in place.

Angela nodded upon seeing this and threw the two bottles of potion in her hand to Rin and Emilia.

"Get ready. They will migrate soon. We need to drink the diving potion and follow them."

Angela already explained this to them yesterday.

Once the land fish enters the sea, they will quickly dive into the burrows in the deep sea and leave. Ships cannot find them if they cannot dive.

While waiting, Rin carefully thought about whether there was anything he had missed.

Gifts were given, greetings were given, and even the captive helmsman was asked to stay on the island for labor reform...

Well, only that dead bat hasn't come yet. He's been seriously slacking off at work. He will definitely sue her severely when he gets back.

Soon, the little fish on the beach turned back in three steps, reluctantly retreated, and returned to the land-based fish king.

And the fish king was facing the crowd, moving its huge body back, preparing to return to the sea.

"Let's go."

Rin and Emilia jumped off the sentry tower and followed Angela to the empty shore. They turned around and waved goodbye to everyone. After drinking the potion, they took a deep breath and got into the water.

In the shallow water area, you can still see the huge body of the Land Fish King, sinking little by little as it swims.

This was Rin's first time taking diving medicine, and he still couldn't get used to the pain from his cheeks to the sides of his neck, and the numbness of his skin.

Basic diving medicine can only ensure that you can hold your breath longer, and you can learn it by the second grade.

However, advanced diving potions are completely different in terms of materials and composition. They are only classified into diving potions because they are also used for diving.

Its essence is a deformation agent that allows people to temporarily grow gills, resist pressure and harden their skin, and speed up their swimming speed.

The duration, depending on the quality of the finished product, ranges from two to three hours, and the cooling time is one day.

Rin and Feimiao were originally wearing different-world versions of diving suits. When they entered the water, they put on flippers to swim faster.

The pain in my cheek soon became extremely itchy, and finally it was accompanied by an influx of fresh air. I might not be able to adapt to changing the breathing position at first, but I soon became comfortable.

Following the amphibious fish into the sea, the scattered light was still dazzling at first, then gradually faded, and finally it was completely dark, with only a little light brought by the occasional passing luminous fish or jellyfish.

There are luminous sacs on the chest of the land fish king, which are usually used to attract deep-sea prey when hunting.

But now that it is carrying thousands of fry, the glow may usher in ferocious ocean monsters to attack the cubs, so it has not opened the luminous bag.

Now he relies on sharp and long sounds and smells to lead the way, and at the same time scare away those monsters.

Rin and Angela couldn't see in the dark like Emilia, and they could only rely on the sound and the rope around Emilia's waist and their traction to identify the direction.

This swim lasted more than half an hour, and the speed of fish was far faster than that of humans. For Rin who first entered the different world, this should have been his limit.

Now that my body has been strengthened several times, I don't feel tired at all. It's just that the numb skin has a tingling sensation, and the tingling and pressure are getting stronger and stronger.

Before long, the anti-stress ability brought by the diving medicine will disappear under the water pressure.

Fortunately, they were safe. As purple halos appeared in their vision and got closer and closer, they had reached the exit of the underwater cave.

From the outside, there were holes everywhere, some large and some small. The entrance was full of purple corals, and there was something that was hard to tell whether it was rock or coral, emitting purple light and bubbling upwards.

The land fish entered from the largest cave entrance.

Angela steadied herself, gestured to the two of them, and then took the lead in entering the cave.

Rin and Fei Miao followed closely behind.

Both sides of the cave passage were also full of those glowing things, and there were also many minerals exposed outside.

Thanks to these things that kept bubbling out, the water pressure here returned to a level within the tolerance range.

Going down along the cave tunnel, it was like a water pipe that suddenly poured into the pool at the end. Rin's vision suddenly widened, and her body was reflected by the colorful light and the refraction of the water.

This is a huge underwater cave, with all kinds of glowing ores on the ground, and various colors turn the cave into a big dye vat.

A closer look reveals that the ores below are actually various elemental ores used to make magic devices.

There are even rare lightning stones and wind miasma stones that emit lightning.

The most exaggerated thing is that permafrost can grow together with flame stones, which shows how complicated the elemental illusion below is.

Lin looked along the nests of ores, and his sight finally stopped at a few dark green ores as tall as an adult at the exit of the cave.

Earth Spirit Rock?

He almost blurted it out, and after spitting out a few bubbles, he felt uncomfortable as if his cheeks were stuck in his trachea, and quickly covered his mouth and coughed a few times.

Earth Spirit Rock is one of the world's recognized precious ores, and its rarity is second only to several legendary ores.

Its main use is to make space-type magic devices and teleportation magic cards. You can imagine how rare it is.

Such a large piece of Earth Spirit Rock is worth at least tens of thousands of gold coins, and if the quality is good, it may be worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

Yeah, it's really exciting.

But Lin also knew that this thing must be useful here. Looking more carefully, those land fish have disappeared.

Then its use is obvious.

As he expected, Angela waved to them and swam to the Earth Spirit Rock first, followed by Lin.

When he arrived near the Earth Spirit Rock, Lin found a layer of light green, as if it was a barrier membrane that completely covered several pieces of Earth Spirit Rock.

Because the light of other minerals was mixed, it was impossible to see clearly from a distance.

Angela motioned the three people to hold hands, and then took them into the barrier.

Before Lin could observe more, his eyes went black, and the sky and the earth spun. The feeling of the abyss left by another "Lin Wu Yue" last time reappeared.

When he could see clearly again, his body had been swept up by a stream of water and thrown away.
