"I have always had great doubts about Japanese mythology, because I know that I am probably the most promiscuous person among human beings, but their ancestors were even more promiscuous than me. No, there is absolutely no way in this world.
There is only one species of this kind of person that can surpass me in this aspect..." Pompeii paused.
"Dragon." Ange took over the words in a deep voice.
"It's good that you have some confidence." Pompeii crossed the tea table and patted Angers on the shoulder.
"I know that you have faced a dragon king before, and you have a deep-seated hatred for that creature. This emotion of hatred makes you fearless. You dare to swing your sword even if you stand in front of a dragon king, but this time the enemy is obviously different."
Pompeo said, "There is someone secretly controlling all this behind the scenes. He covets a higher level of power than the Dragon King and has the idea of a 'god'. You cannot use common sense in the past to think about this enemy. When human beings
When cunning and the power of dragons combine into one, that’s the most terrifying thing!”
"Oh, oh, it's time. I also made an appointment with Chanel's chief design consultant for afternoon tea." Pompeo looked at his watch, jumped up from his chair and ran downstairs, "By the way, my friend, I'll give you one last
Advice, sixty years have passed since you were young. Maybe your strength has not declined, but the world has changed a lot. Don’t look at the Snake Qihachi family today with the eyes you had sixty years ago, otherwise you may fall into trouble.
.”
"Don't send it off." Pompeo waved his hand without looking back and closed the door of the principal's office.
"I didn't want to give it to you at first." Angers looked at Pompeii's retreating back and shook his head gently.
He sat alone under the silent skylight, while the tartary buckwheat tea went from steaming hot to cold.
As the sun set, the light and shadow cut his old face into two parts, bright and dark. Squirrels were scurrying on the bookshelf, and the falling process of scattered dust was slowed down countless times. The shadow parts slowly and vigorously moved on the old man's face.
Moving up and down... After a long, long time, the sun had lost its last rays, and the twilight was like a great tide that completely submerged the old man.
…
Lu Mingfei woke up leisurely.
He tried to open his eyes, but his eyelids were as heavy as lead, his throat was as dry as if it had been roasted by fire for three days and nights, his body seemed to be no longer his, and his head was in severe pain as if it had been split and then sewn shut.
.
He tried his best to focus his eyes. In his blurred vision, the waves and clouds receded in his sight. The thick sea breeze blew against his face. The smell of rotten fish seemed to have passed through the respiratory tract and poured directly into his lungs. It was obviously daytime.
, the sky was so dark that it seemed to be connected to the earth, with only a few lights shining on the distant coast.
Lu Mingfei inhaled the fishy and salty breath into his lungs. Even though the smell was like stuffing a whole can of stinky herring into his nostrils, and the cool breath sweeping through his lungs hurt as if they were about to burst, but
Being able to breathe and feel pain at least means that he is still alive and still in the world.
Thin raindrops fell from the sky and slapped on his face, which was ice cold. Lu Mingfei looked up at the sky. The low dark clouds covered the sky, making the sky not look so high and vast. Instead, it seemed a bit depressing for no reason. Lu Mingfei
I feel like I haven't woken up yet, and there seems to be a looming cage between my vision and the sky.
First of all, he was sure that he was alive, and secondly, he seemed to be still at sea...or was he on a certain ship? At this time, the sound of the engine was drowning out the waves, and the place where he lay on his back was cold, hard, and super.
It's damp, probably the deck of a certain ship.
He tried to recall, and in the last coherent memory he pushed the third injection of potion into his body, roared for Caesar to take Chu Zihang and Jiude Mai away, and then his head shut down, and his vision
There was only the rotten dragon in the endless black water and the overwhelming corpse guards. He seemed to be covered in blood that even the sea water could not wash away.
He was controlled by extreme madness and killing. Everything was like a nightmare. In the chaos, only a few fragmentary fragments flashed back in his mind.
An iceberg falling from the sky...a red and white miko costume...long dark red hair like seaweed...a girl in her arms as soft as cherry blossom petals...
"Eliyi..." Lu Mingfei said the name with difficulty, his voice hoarse like a patient with a burnt throat.
"Are you awake?" A strange voice came from not far away, it was a man's voice.
Lu Mingfei turned around and saw an unshaven middle-aged man in a cage. His long hair almost covered his eyes, and his pupils were shimmering from between the hair. He was wearing a
Wearing a brown linen top and culottes with wide trousers and skinny ankles, he looked like a ragged beggar.
Lu Mingfei struggled to sit up, and then he was shocked to find that the seemingly non-existent cage that he felt when he was still conscious was not an illusion. Like the beggar-like man, in front of him
It was an iron fence, and he was also locked in a hard cage, like a beast in a zoo for people to visit.
The sea breeze mixed with the cold rain hit him head-on. The coolness seemed to penetrate the skin and pierce people's bones, which made Lu Mingfei wake up a little. He subconsciously looked at the surrounding environment. He was indeed on a ship.
Yes, the deck is full of containers and iron cages. It looks like some kind of large cargo ship.
The cargo ship was sailing on the sea against the wind and waves, and it was unknown where it was heading. Men with guns patrolled the belly and stern of the ship away from the deck. They would always deliberately avoid the deck, as if they were afraid of something on the deck.
"If nothing else happens, they usually won't get close to the goods." said the beggar-looking man who was locked in the cage next to Lu Mingfei.
"Products?" Lu Mingfei frowned slightly.
"You don't seem to understand your current situation." The beggar-looking man raised his chin towards Lu Mingfei's body, "Why don't you lower your head and take a look."
Lu Mingfei lowered his head and saw that he was wearing a tattered and simple striped outfit, or a prisoner outfit, to prevent himself from being too naked. There was a heavy pressure on his wrists and ankles.
, because his hands and feet were tightly bound by hard iron chains, making him look like he was unfortunately a prisoner of a human trafficker organization.
"Hmm...were they caught by a criminal group?" Lu Mingfei said to himself. He tried to break free from the iron chain, but when he exerted force, he felt severe pain. It should be a side effect of the medicine.
If the side effects were just weakness and weakness, it wouldn't be unacceptable. In fact, after three injections of such a powerful medicine, I was thankful that I didn't die or completely lose control and turn into a monster.
Although Lu Mingfei didn't know how he was saved in the end or how he ended up on the ship, he vaguely felt that his survival was probably related to a certain girl.
Did you save me, Eriyi?
"Your guess is very close. To be precise, it's not a criminal group, this is a gangster's cargo ship." The beggar man lowered his voice and said, "This ship is for commodity trading. You must also be able to tell that the goods are traded by
People are just extraordinary people."
"An unusual person? How unusual? Sold to be a cowherd or sold to dig coal in the Middle East?"
"No, no, no, although this is a business that gangsters often do, these are not special enough. The gangsters on this ship are rather special. They believe in religion and gods, and they often recruit some unusual people for display and auction."
The beggar man said, "Have you seen the blond man behind you? He was once the most famous Cowherd and Newcomer King in Flower Street. His body was ruined due to abuse of drugs and indulgence. His former Cowherd shop owner was furious.
They imprisoned him and prohibited him from touching women and drugs. This guy couldn't bear it, so he sneaked out and was caught by the boss who issued a red reward through the gang. Although he was no longer young, he still had some of his previous charm.
, it should be able to be sold at a not-low price.”
"There are also women, extremely beautiful and coquettish women, from Russia, the Middle East and the Western Regions, gathered from all over the world. They are all locked in the cabin and live in the crew's room because they are afraid that the sea wind will damage their delicate skin.
"
"It is said that there are people with special powers in this auction. It is a piece of cake to breathe water, spit fire and move instantly. The powerful ones can even read minds!"
Mind-reading... Lu Mingfei thought to himself, in what age is this, there are still people who believe in this trick to deceive children. Isn't the so-called mind-reading just a deeper level of profiling? If this can be considered mind-reading, then he
He can also read minds, so isn't his senior sister Nono the king of mind reading?
However, Lu Mingfei then thought about it, this was Japan, so it was understandable that he would be fooled by such a trick.
The Japanese are a nagging nation, and most of them have some dirty thoughts in their hearts. As the saying goes, the more you fear, the more you believe in it. People who are afraid of ghosts believe in disasters, and people who are afraid of difficulties believe in gods and Buddhas.
, it is not difficult to understand that people with serious sins believe in Jesus, even if they are afraid that others will peek into the dirty thoughts buried deep in their hearts, and firmly believe that there is mind reading in this world.
"What about you? Why are you attracted by them?" Lu Mingfei stared at the beggar man. This guy's slovenliness was probably comparable to that of Fingel in his heyday. "Are you the sloppy king? Or are you a gang of beggars?
Gang leader?"
"What are those?" The beggar man was stunned.
Although he had never heard of these titles, they sounded quite impressive. He was the king and the leader of the gang, so he didn't know how powerful they were.
"Well...just like your Japanese wandering entertainers or relatively poor ninjas."
"Very close, very close!" the beggar man grinned, "Wizard, I am a wizard, it's easy to tell, right?"
"Wizard..." Lu Mingfei looked at the man, and his mind was full of absurdities. He felt that this was a hundred times more ridiculous than mind reading.
"Hey, don't look at me like this, I have a formal professional certificate for wizards, okay!" The beggar man who calls himself a wizard shouted, with a look like "If you don't believe me, I can take out the certificate and slap you in the face at any time."
After taking it for a long time, he suddenly scratched his head and said, "Suddenly I remembered that when I was arrested, they took away my original clothes and the wizard's certificate in their pocket."
"What's the fuss about, No. 4, have you forgotten that I told you not to touch Lot Zero?" The man in black with a gun was disturbed by the wizard and shouted from a distance, "Do you want to take a sedative?"
"Yes, yes." The man smiled flatteringly, looking like Fingel's bitch.
"Lot No. 0?" Lu Mingfei was suddenly stunned.
"Yes, you are the lot number zero. You are the highlight of this exhibition. Many people come here because of you." The man murmured in a low voice.
"Final product? Are you here for me?" Lu Mingfei was stunned, "I am neither a glamorous woman nor have special powers. How can I be so virtuous and capable?"
"Eighteen hours ago, the entire southeastern coast of Japan was swept by a sky-covering tsunami. It was simply unprecedented in scale. Almost all coastal fishing villages were submerged, and even the drainage systems of some coastal metropolitan areas were paralyzed.
It's like a raging wave descended by Poseidon." The man said.
Lu Mingfei nodded slowly. This was a tsunami caused by the explosion of a nuclear power module. The man must have never imagined that the person who caused the tsunami would be sitting in the cage with him.
"Some weird things were also washed up on the shore with the incoming tsunami. Everyone said that it was Lord Poseidon who cast a curse on the world." The man said sadly, his eyes hidden behind his long black hair showing a chill.
The light said, "Those are rare monsters. They have the upper body of a human being, covered with blue-black scales, but the tail is a thick snake tail, and the veins are full of black blood. They are mythical creatures - mermaids."
, they are the messengers of Poseidon.”
Lu Mingfei was silent. Of course he knew what the creatures the man described were. They were not mermaids, and they had nothing to do with Poseidon. They were corpse guards liberated from Gao Tianyuan.
Damn it, I didn’t expect the Sheqiba family’s aftermath work to be so sloppy!
"It is indeed a very incredible creature." Lu Mingfei said calmly, "But what does this have to do with me becoming the final product?"
"Those things that were rolled up on the coast were all dead. There were very few of them, and they were all killed by mysterious forces." The man said, "It wasn't until eight hours ago that someone finally found a living thing on the high seas.
, he was floating quietly on the sea, covered in injuries. Although he looked different from those mermaid-like creatures, he was extremely resilient and actually had wings on his back. The discoverer excitedly announced it in Japan's underground underworld market.
He found a new species given to the world by Poseidon, and opened an exhibition and auction."
"You mean..." Gradually, Lu Mingfei had a bad premonition in his heart.
"That's right, it's you, my friend!" The man looked at Lu Mingfei excitedly, "Your appearance is really incredible! When you got on the boat, everyone was looking at you and being afraid of you.
You are the strange leader of the sea monster. I am the only one who thinks you are not a bad guy. Now it seems that you can also speak human words... By the way, what instructions did the old man Poseidon give you? Is it to destroy human beings or genes?
