Fisher held a roll of manuscript paper and looked at Reina who was sitting on the sofa. Renee beside her was peeling candies for her in a playful way. At first, she suspected that these humans were trying to poison her, but in the end
After eating one, she couldn't stop. It seemed that it was rare to eat this kind of thing where she lived.
She paused slightly while chewing the fruit, and then her eyes dodge.
"Eight...eight years old."
This was far from what she had just said about having an endless lifespan. She probably knew that the lie she had just made up on the spur of the moment would not be able to deceive Fisher.
Fisher just checked her body and found that the crab-like organs were completely grown on her body. The ornament-like crab shell behind her was completely connected to her back, but according to reports
She said that the carapace is very light and you can't feel any weight in the sea.
After understanding a little bit of her body data, Fisher actually wanted to know what the demihuman settlement in the ocean looked like this time.
Marine demi-humans rarely appear in human sight. When he was in Nali, he could occasionally hear news from the seaside that a fisherman had discovered a sea monster, a mermaid, etc., which attracted a large number of reporters and newspapers to take the train. The result was that
The black-and-white photos that came back were all of calm seas, and there was a lot of interviews with different opinions attached, and there was nothing substantial at all.
This time I finally met a real ocean demi-human who could talk, why don't I get some more information?
Although Fisher had no intention of taking her back to Nali, after all, judging from Nali's current technological level, not only could he not reach the demi-human settlement on the bottom of the sea, but even if he did, he would only be repeating what happened in the Southern Continent.
This research is only for Fisher to satisfy his own thirst for knowledge, and what is recorded will not be passed on to others.
The most important thing is that Fisher also wants to know some information about the "Son of the Sea". After all, among the four prophecies of destruction, only the description of the "Son of the Sea" is the vaguest. The word "mysterious" is used, which sounds like there is no clue at all.
"So you are only eight years old? No wonder you look so cute..."
Renee peeled off another candy and fed it to her, making her cheeks bulge. Before she finished eating, she opened her mouth to signal Renee to continue feeding. How could she answer Fisher's question with her mouth full?
Fisher tapped his fingers on the table and looked at Renee ruthlessly, as if he was blaming her for interrupting his research, causing her to innocently turn her head to look at Fisher,
"Renee..."
"I know, I know... But Fisher, I really like children. If it is the child of the two of us, it will definitely be cuter than this child~"
She emphasized the word "our" in her words. While emphasizing, her eyes like the starry sky swept towards Fisher, as if she wanted to arouse some desire in Fisher's heart.
It's just that you can't agree to such a girl's request for a cute child?
Fisher glanced at her expectant eyes. At this moment, Renee is like your wife who has been with you for many years and is looking forward to having a love crystallization with you. Just a simple look will make you
I can't refuse and am full of desire, I wish I could make a baby with her on the spot.
But this was all just Renee's trick. Fisher knew this better than anyone else, so he moved his eyes away with difficulty, suppressing his desire for knowledge over his desire to reproduce, and then looked at Reina and asked,
"Why did you come here to steal things? Is this place very close to your home?"
He did not directly ask Reina about the situation in the demi-human tribe where she lived, because he was worried that this direct question would arouse the demi-human's wariness and make her tell false or incomplete information. As a result, Reina seemed to be just a younger person in front of him.
She's just a demi-human. This question seemed to open up her chat box, and it kept shaking.
"I didn't steal anything! I just happened to want to look up to see what was outside! But there was nothing up there. I heard from the old people in the city that there are many creatures that look very similar to us living up there, such as you humans.
There are also [Siren] and the like. As a result, I was almost hit by the big thing you drove. I wanted to go up and ask for an explanation, but I saw a pair of sparkling gem necklaces. I just wanted to borrow it to have a look.
!”
Reina was very stubborn about stealing things and refused to admit it. She just said that she wanted to borrow them for viewing, but the details of how to return them were still to be determined.
"Then what is the situation of the royal family you mentioned before? Are there any demi-humans who are higher than you?"
Since there is a royal family, the social system there should have been relatively stable, at least forming a social structure similar to that of humans. And according to Reina, it was very far from where she lived to swim to the water, and it took her a long time to swim to faintly
See the sunlight above.
Fisher speculated that the settlement of demi-humans should be on the submarine plain of the Southern Ocean, but the exact depth could not be calculated. According to the study of the body structure of this crab race just now, it seems that she is extremely resistant to water pressure.
It was beyond Fisher's imagination, and at the same time, she had a structure that responded quickly to pressure changes, otherwise she would not have been able to stay on the surface of the water unscathed.
Although the overall appearance is a bit strange, all the biological characteristics seem to be perfectly applied in reality, just like some unspeakable divine creation, which made Fisher marvel at the power of nature.
"Oh, those guys." Speaking of the royal family that Fisher mentioned, Linnai touched her head in embarrassment and whispered, "Actually, I haven't seen them either. They live far, far away from us.
In the trench. My father said that the royal family is very conservative and will not leave the trench easily. Moreover, the trench is too dark and I don’t dare to go there. If you go further down, ordinary people will be crushed. Only the royal family can enter and exit freely.
.”
"so..."
Fisher's quill pen wrote the word "royal family" on the paper. For the marine demi-race, the royal family seems to be an extremely special existence. According to Reina's family, the royal family of the ocean is the only one, and they all point to living.
Race under the huge trench.
Fisher squeezed all the remaining knowledge out of Reina's little head. He even knew about the children in her settlement who rode fish and dragged her around. Thanks to Renee's good sugar-feeding skills,
Let her shake off a lot of things unconsciously.
"You didn't lie, did you?"
After recording this information, Fisher looked at Rena with bulging cheeks, causing her to raise her pliers in a panic, and shouted innocently,
"I promise you in the name of my faith in Lamastia! I didn't lie, otherwise I would... I would spit out the delicious food I ate!"
As she spoke, as if to prove the cruelty of her oath, she hurriedly swallowed the delicious candies in her mouth!
"Lamastia...what is it?"
However, Fisher keenly caught the strange word that appeared in her mouth. The word read from her mouth was very strange. Due to the strange translation liquid she just drank, Fisher heard all her voices.
It is a translation sound similar to the stream of consciousness, only this word is brought out by pronunciation intact.
"Ah... So you don't believe in the great Lamastia." She hammered her head with pliers in distress, as if she was thinking about how to explain to Fisher and the others what she said about Lamastia.
meaning.
"My father told me that our lives are all given by Lamastia. Every year we have to worship Him and throw many fish and handicrafts into the trench, although I don't know if it will
Hit the heads of those royals..."
"Wait a minute, you mean, those royal families live together with the gods you worship?"
"That's right... hmm? The god you believe in... um, doesn't a god like Lamastia exist? Then why do you believe in him?"
This question actually stumped Fisher. Although Fisher knew that the Mother Goddess was just a means for humans to explain the world, more akin to primitive beliefs, or beliefs, he just didn't expect the Asian creatures in the ocean.
People will truly believe in the existence of an entity.
In other words, the gods they believe in really exist in this world and are lying in a trench in the Southern Ocean at this moment?
"Have you seen that god?"
"No. But I can feel His response every time I pray, even though I can't understand it..."
Seeing the human being in front of her looking like she was thinking, Reina, who didn't know how to explain it, stretched out her pliers, put her hands together with her entire forearm, and made an action she had done many times, similar to a human's prayer gesture.
It's just that this prayer is a bit too weird for humans.
She closed her eyes, her voice was serious and pious, and she muttered in a low voice,
"Guardian of the ocean, origin of life, [God of Hundreds of Appearances] Lamastia, I pray to you, hoping that I can eat this kind of delicious food every day... Well, that's about it.
, my father and I do this kind of thing every day before eating. Ah, I can’t feel Lamastia’s voice here. It’s probably too far away and maybe he can’t hear me. Sometimes I’m bullied by other friends at night.
They would all tell Him that they prayed that He would ask their parents to spank their butts, but I don’t know if He would agree..."
"so..."
Fisher looked out at the endless sea, and after pausing for a long time, the quill pen wrote down the last paragraph at the end of the manuscript paper.
