Chapter 350 Deep Sea Palace
Talking and laughing happily, the ghost captain finally sent Tu Fu to the territory of the mermaid clan.
Just close to the edge, I met a mermaid guard holding a fork, but I refused to go down even though I said nothing.
"Hoo hoo!"
A water bubble that gradually floated from the bottom of the sea to the top dived, and did not stop because of the pressure of the altitude. The bubble was filled with enough oxygen.
It is the king of the deep sea that is specially customized for Tu Fu, and there is one and only one.
The intention was obvious enough, Tu Fu was only allowed to go to the Deep Sea Palace by himself.
"Here, not everyone in the royal family of the deep sea is allowed to enter their palace, especially if something like this happened, it has long been a relationship of immortality.
You are probably the only human being able to enter this palace this century. "
The black-clothed skeleton on the ghost ship did not forget to tell Tu Fu before leaving, and gave him a suspicious look, "Remember what you promised me, don't try to renege, I have the ability to find you at any time."
"Although rest assured, my reputation has always been a golden signboard."
Tu Fu said nonchalantly, Captain Ghost had helped him so many times, he would not be perfunctory, and when the time was right, he would help him get rid of that terrifying mother tree.
Tu Fu immediately opened his arms and automatically activated the protection function of the Santa Maria.
A large white mist immediately spread to cover the hull, but it only covered the scope of the hull. It was not enough to cause too much damage at sea, but it was enough to protect the ship.
"Gulu."
Then, he resolutely drilled into the oxygen bubble, dived together with the mermaid guards, and continued to dive to the deepest part of the seabed. The light of the sky and the sunshine gradually disappeared, but he still did not see the bottom.
It is said that the palace of the royal family of the deep sea is 10,000 meters below the sea.
Even if the electrical revolution takes place, it will take another two hundred years to create a submarine that can explore 10,000 meters to go to the Mermaid Palace.
Although there is already an experience, the gap between more than a thousand meters and tens of thousands of meters is simply incomparable.
At first there was still a bright light on the sea.
All creatures are bathed in the warm and sunny sea water, small fish and shrimps with piebald frolic around the trained corals, strange starfish, jellyfish and seaweeds of various colors can be seen everywhere.
All kinds of creatures danced under the surging waves.
But when diving to 5,000 meters, there is no light at all, only some strange-looking deep-sea fish have bright organs on their bodies, and the eyes of most fish have degenerated in this environment, and they follow aimlessly. Instinct to swim in the water.
Medium and large creatures become the masters of this layer, and the experience of getting close is quite special.
The underwater world seen from the bubbles is mysterious and quiet. Even if you are close to them, you can't hear any sound except your own breathing, as if you are merging with this wonderful world.
The lower you go, the darker it becomes, and there are very few things that can be distinguished.
Tu Fu in his previous life had never tried diving before, but this is the second time he has dived into the deep sea of 10,000 meters. Fortunately, there are two mermaid guards guiding him, and the oxygen ball descends at an extremely fast speed.
What is the world like in the 10,000-meter deep sea?
The place is surrounded by darkness, and the darkness that sees no light makes Tu Fu feel a great sense of loneliness. A kind of awe that can only be seen when seeing high-level creatures is awakened again.
The 10,000-meter deep sea is full of marine organisms that travel hundreds of thousands of meters. They swim carefree in the deep water area, and they can suck dozens of hundreds of catties of fish into their stomachs with just one big mouth.
Compared with them, human beings are such a small species that it is impossible to notice his existence without looking carefully.
Even though Tu Fu had a similar experience in the spirit world, he still felt that his blood was boiling when he got close to those giants.
Fortunately, there are mermaid guards communicating with them, so that they will not be swallowed by anyone.
"Guest, the palace is here. His Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time."
The mermaid guard kindly reminded him and led Tu Fu into the palace.
The first thing that catches the eye is a comparatively bright undersea forest. Tall native plants grow densely, without branches or veins, standing bare and upright.
Various and endless coral clumps appeared in front of Tu Fu.
The most conspicuous one is the underwater civilization created by the mermaid clan.
There are many houses growing in the bushes, and the most central position is the magnificent palace hall built with strange corals. The windows are made of amber stone, and some gold and silver that probably fell from the sea are inlaid on the outside of the building.
The unique mermaid civilization appeared in Tufu, and Dang even showed the same surprise as when he saw the elf village.
"Those are?"
When Tu Fu landed in this city, he saw many broken or complete antique crafts, all of which were placed in this underwater city, including the third era and earlier things.
Eventually they sank to the bottom of the ocean over time.
The value of those things made Tu Fu, a student majoring in archeology, interested in exploring just by looking at them.
"If you have time in the future, you must come a few more times."
Tu Fu looked at the pile of things and said secretly.
"You came."
The old voice came from the prosperous and rich palace.
But in the blink of an eye, he was brought into the palace.
In the Mermaid King of the Deep Sea Palace, Tu Fu did not wear the armor he usually wears when meeting this time, but a crown and imperial suit. The giant mermaid looked at this human boy very comfortably.
"This is what you want. Put it away. Speaking of which, this thing can easily cause hallucinations. When the prey gets close, the vines will spread out and entangle them, and then slowly digest the food. Don't touch it with your skin. .”
The mermaid king casually threw a piece of plant rhizome wrapped in oxygen bubbles towards Tufu.
The King of the Deep Sea said solemnly: "Tu Fu, from now on, you are an ally recognized by the Mermaid Clan, and members of my Clan will do their best to help you if you encounter any troubles in the future.
And the treasures here, you are also free to ask for them, as long as you can take them away, you can take them away. "
As expected of the leader of the deep sea royal family, he was so generous when he set out the conditions.
Piles of gold, silver and treasures, as well as mountains of antiques and jades, were carried out by the guards and placed in front of Tu Fu. The value could exceed Tu Fu's current assets if they were exchanged on land.
"These are things that our family has found from the sea or ancient ruins in the past two centuries. If you are interested in something, you can take it yourself as a reward for rescuing Avril."
"It's very polite, but I appreciate your kindness. But these things are too many, and I can't take them on board."
Tu Fu smiled, but his legs and feet remained motionless when he looked at the pile of gold and silver treasures.
It's not that he's no longer interested in money, it's just that he thought of Captain Ghost's warning that there are many good things that the royal family of the deep sea can offer, and it's too underestimating to just give some money.
"I was negligent, so I specially prepared something for you, and it will be useful if you are active at sea."
It seemed that he heard the truth in Tu Fu's words, and the King of the Deep Sea was not disgusted.
If there are no conditions for doing such a big thing, it will make him suspicious.
The King of the Deep Sea waved his hand to order the guards to continue presenting the thing.
That thing was dragged by the jade plate and covered by a red curtain.
It looks extremely valuable.
When the waiter unwrapped the curtain, he could see a cane made of ancient trees, made of several winding branches intertwined with each other, and a black night pearl was inlaid on the top of the cane.
"this is?"
"The Poseidon Scepter, using your standards to define at least an A-level taboo, the user can instill a certain amount of spirituality to create hurricanes, tsunamis, rainstorms, and lightning strikes. It can make people fly into the sky and walk on the bottom of the sea.
All the authority of the God of Storms in the sea can be achieved with this Sea God Scepter. "
The King of the Deep Sea took the trouble to introduce Tu Fu.
"So, what's the price of it?"
"The user's negative emotions pile up quickly, easily irritable, irritable, and have a strong desire to destroy, and automatically harvest the blood and soul of all marine life within a range of 500 meters, so as to support its entity and soul body."
"A forbidden item that has advantages and disadvantages, its power must be good. As for the disadvantages, but for me now... there are almost no side effects."
Tu Fu smiled bitterly, "So are you willing to give me such a precious thing? It must be quite precious."
"This is the national treasure of our family, and it should not be given to others lightly."
The Mermaid King looked at him intently, "But I know the manpower and price you mobilized for that war. Such a great kindness to Avril Lavigne cannot be exhausted, and it is only reasonable for me to pay it back for her."
Tu Fu smiled, and did not speak when he took the forbidden object.
That's right, Avril Lavigne can't repay this day's great kindness.
In order to keep the Little Mermaid and him in a state where they owe each other all the time, they can only donate the national treasure to others. This is probably the last insistence of the old father.
Tu Fu hesitated for a moment before asking: "I don't know, is Avril Lavigne doing well recently?"
"It's not bad. This encounter made the girl finally take some time off. At least she no longer yearns to go to the world of land humans. In fact, this is the best result for her and other members of our clan. "
The huge mermaid king sighed with relief.
Tu Fu lowered his head silently, feeling a pang of distress for the girl who longed for the wonderful world.
After such a major event, a great conflict between mermaids and humans was triggered. I am afraid that it will be unrealistic for Avril Lavigne to get close to human society or even the captain in the future.
Perhaps this is the price of growth.
After getting permission from the King of the Deep Sea, Tu Fu quietly went to the apse where the mermaid princesses played around.
In the coral garden, there happened to be a few beautiful mermaid princesses playing together,
Toss a ball around and have fun.
Regretful remarks about each other's past experiences on land, and they will never be able to experience them again in the future.
Can only live in memory.
The little mermaid, who always likes to be quiet, sat on the swing and drew many patterns on the snow wave paper with a coral pen very attentively.
From the day when she went to sea on her birthday, she was recorded until she was caught stealing frosting, and then a person who claimed to be Captain Jack appeared, and after experiencing the interesting life on an isolated island, she really saw the vast human society.
Then, when she was arrested and imprisoned in the black tower, it was that person who stepped forward again in despair, and rescued her from hell like the prince in the storybook in an impossible predicament...
Everything that happened on land seemed like a distant dream to Avril Lavigne.
Unknowingly, the painting book was soaked with big drops of tears.
