Starting From Zero

Chapter 42 The Song of the Siren

"Siren!" A sailor suddenly rolled into the conference room and shouted with a pale face: "Siren, Captain, it's the Siren!"

"Why is the captain of the Kraken? Speak slowly!" I asked the NPC sailor while I straightened him up.

"It's the captain!" the sailor said after taking a breath: "There are sea monsters outside, there are many of them, and our battleship is surrounded!"

"Siren?" I looked back at King Chuang. He had been at the beach for a long time, so he should be more aware of these things in the sea.

King Chuang saw me looking at him for an explanation and stood up and said: "The siren is a kind of monster in the sea, and it is actually a mermaid!"

"Mermaid?" Daguofan's eyes were shining with greed and his lips were dripping with tears. "Hahahaha!"

"Stop dreaming!" Wuqing gave him a flying kick. "I've seen mermaids too. They're very powerful. Be careful of being dragged down! You'll be chewed to the point where no bones are left!"

"It's so scary! Is that a mermaid or a piranha?"

"Don't interrupt!" I continued to look at King Chuang. "Go on!"

"These mermaids are just like the legends. They have human body fish tails. Although they look like handsome men and women, their actual fighting power is terrifying. They are high-level monsters in the sea and are very difficult to deal with!"

"Captain!" This time it was the second officer who rushed in crawling. "No, no, no, the Kraken has surrounded us and is preparing to attack!"

Just after the second officer finished speaking, the singing voice that had always been in one note suddenly started to change its rhythm, and the ups and downs of the music began to sound, and this time it was obviously harmony, with a lead singer and a full set of backing vocals! The music is very good, but I know that it is the same thing as Bingbing's flute, and it can kill people!

"Get on deck!" I urged everyone to get on deck quickly and took the opportunity to shake those who were already starting to feel drowsy.

All the people I saw on the way to the deck through the corridor were sleepy sailors. Even my second mate started to talk a little loudly! When we arrived on the deck, we saw a group of sailors standing on the side of the ship and jumping off. I was dizzy. I actually heard the word "suicide" while listening to the song!

I gave myself a hard slap to wake myself up, and then rushed to the bow of the ship. I saw a large number of mermaids below in a neat formation in the sea, moving backwards as the Bi Ling moved forward. With only their upper bodies exposed, they could actually maintain their formation at such a fast speed!

My eyes quickly noticed the armor-clad mermaid in the middle of the team. She was wearing an emerald green tight-fitting armor. The tight-fitting armor well emphasized her alluring curves, while the other mermaids The men are all naked, and the women only cover their important parts with two shells on their chests. This man in armor is obviously their boss!

The mermaid leader has extremely beautiful long golden hair. Since she has no helmet, I can clearly see her delicate and almost perfect face. But now this beautiful little mermaid is singing something, and apparently he is the lead singer of this huge concert!

"What's going on?" I turned around and asked King Chuang who was standing behind me, but I didn't see anyone. When I lowered my head, I saw him lying on the ground and sleeping like the others, with Tiantian still hanging on his lips. smile! I suddenly thought that this is what euthanasia is all about!

"Brother Ziri? What's wrong with them?" Bingbing just ran out of the cabin. "Why is everyone asleep? Sister Rose just helped me find the flute and suddenly fell asleep!"

"I don't know! There must be something wrong with the mermaid's singing." I suddenly looked at Bingbing, "Why are you okay?"

"I don't know, I'm a little sleepy too, but I can still hold on! By the way, aren't you okay too?"

"I don't know, but we must have something that can resist the mermaid's singing!"

Just as we were talking, everyone on the Biling had fallen asleep, and no one was active except Bingbing and me. I walked up to Ying and shook him for a long time, but it didn't work. I slapped him twice. He was still sleeping soundly and still shouting for Lingling. He must have dreamed about being with Bai Ling in xxoo!

I left him next to the big pot of rice, and I kicked him in the stomach, but it was still the same, no reaction at all! It seems that these people hypnotized by the singing cannot be awakened through violent means!

After putting them down, I came to the bow of the ship and stood directly on the guardrail looking at the mermaid leader. "Hey, what do you mean and what do you want to do?"

The mermaid clan leader was slightly startled when she saw me standing on the bow of the boat, but she recovered quickly. The singing suddenly changed its tone, and the melodious music began to have high pitches one by one. I knew she must be experimenting with the effect of changing the music, but I still didn't react. I even felt much more awake than before.

Bingbing also came next to me and looked at the mermaid in the sea. The mermaid clan leader looked even more surprised after seeing Bingbing. "How come you are not affected by my singing?" She finally stopped singing, but everyone behind her was still sleeping soundly and didn't look like they were about to wake up. It seems that this singing has a certain time limit!

"What do you want to do? What do you plan to do by putting all my people to sleep?"

"I want your boat!" The mermaid clan leader said an answer that surprised us. "Hand over your ship, and I'll let you go on other ships." She pointed at the ships that Chuang Wang and his friends were traveling on. "I only want your boat! You can take those few boats away!"

"What do you want a boat for?" I looked at the mermaid clan leader strangely. "I mean, it seems like there is no use for you to have a boat, right? You are mermaids! Can't you swim in the sea by yourself?"

"Don't worry about this. Hand over the boat and I will let you go. If you don't hand over the boat, we will rob it and kill you all!"

"Unfortunately, I don't want to sell this boat!" I'm just kidding. I borrowed money to buy this boat and it's gone before the cost is recovered. I'm not losing money!

"You don't want to be friends anymore?" The mermaid clan leader looked at me angrily. "Give you one last chance! Should I hand it over or not?"

"No!" I answered her decisively.

"Okay! I admire your courage and feel sorry for your wrong decision!" After saying that, she waved behind her. "superior!"

All the male mermaids in the entire phalanx jumped out of the water almost at the same time and began to pounce on us. "Xiao Feng!" I summoned Xiao Feng to appear. Since these guys are mermaids, I thought it might be very effective to deal with them with fire! The facts are indeed as I expected. After Xiaofeng appeared, a fire storm was shot out in all directions. Almost all the mermaids who jumped up were stuck to the flames. Xiaofeng's magic flames had strong adhesion, and the mermaids stuck to them immediately burned. They were so frightened that they jumped back into the water to put out the fire.

"Aren't you very capable?" The mermaid clan leader glared at me angrily. "Prepare the Sea Soul!"

I don’t know what the Soul of the Sea is, but I know it is definitely a very troublesome thing. "Bingbing, play the flute!"

"Oh!" Only now did Bingbing remember to take out the flute and put it to her mouth. "The first chapter of Death Variations is a soul-stirring sound!"

As soon as the melodious flute sounded, all the mermaids below fell silent. They looked at each other with shock in their eyes. The mermaid clan leader looked at Bingbing with twinkling eyes and said slowly: "The Banshee's Flute? How come you have this thing?"

Bingbing ignored her and just continued to play her music. The mermaid below was obviously beginning to be unable to hold on. The mermaid leader immediately started singing. "Ah...!" The melodious singing and flute sounds turned into a piece of music. Those who didn't know it thought the two people were performing! But in fact, they were competing, but Bingbing was obviously struggling, and beads of sweat seeped out from her forehead.

After a few minutes, both parties were still playing, but Bingbing's head was already covered with sweat. Suddenly the flute stopped, and Bingbing took a big breath and started playing again. "Death Variations Chapter 3 Dance of the Soul!"

The sound of the flute suddenly became high-pitched and violent, and the mermaid clan leader who had been relaxing suddenly stopped in surprise. A fountain suddenly appeared on the water and dragged the mermaid patriarch, and she emerged from the fountain and stood on the top of the fountain. Her fish tail actually separated into two human legs. "Soul of the Sea!" She suddenly started singing something in a strange language. Although I didn't know how it was different from the one just now, I clearly felt the air around me vibrating randomly. I could almost See the almost substantial sound waves emanating from Bingbing's flute and the mermaid leader's mouth. Xiaofeng turned somersaults in the air and fell into the sea with a plop. I quickly summoned her back. I knew that in this environment surrounded by water, Xiaofeng's ability as a fire-attributed monster would be greatly reduced, but I never expected that she would be treated so badly!

The sound of Bingbing's flute was speeding up, and I could almost feel my body heating up. At the same time, the Mermaid Patriarch’s song is becoming more and more complex and faster! The progress on both sides seemed to have reached a climax. I just felt that my chest was about to explode. This was probably the feeling of blood boiling. However, my current situation should be excessive blood boiling, because I started to have nosebleeds. But what reassures me is that the mermaids below are not much better than me. Almost all the mermaids are suffering from nosebleeds, and some of them are in bad health. Some of the beautiful mermaids have already started to have blood like tears flowing from their eyes. .

The mermaid clan leader on the water column seemed to be in pain. Her singing voice had begun to tremble a little. Bingbing's flute began to go out of tune. The most important thing was that Bingbing also started to have a nosebleed. Now nearby Everyone, including the lying sailor and eagle, all started to have nosebleeds, except for the mermaid clan leader.

It seems I need to take action! I walked to the bow of the boat and looked at the mermaid leader over there, and she also saw me staring at her. I smiled at her, then transformed into my werewolf form as she looked at me in surprise. Hehe, I don't believe you can sing while fighting. Even if you can, I don't think you can reach your current level!

With a slight effort on his legs, he easily crossed the distance of more than ten meters. I accurately flew towards the water column where the mermaid patriarch was, but when I looked at her proudly in the air, she also showed a contemptuous smile. Just when I was surprised, I suddenly seemed to bump into Something bounced back. A blue light ball next to the mermaid clan leader flashed and disappeared. It was really depressing. She actually still had a protective shield. If it weren't for the mermaid below who had been made dizzy by two powerful magic music, now We're in trouble!

After I was ejected, I didn't go back to the boat but jumped directly into the mermaid group. Hey, don't blame me for being mean during the war! I grabbed a mermaid and swam back to the boat with her on her back. During the swim back, I actually found that even my dog ​​paddle swimming style had improved after transforming into a werewolf! Holding this mermaid who was almost unconscious, I jumped onto the bow of the boat with the help of the boat plank.

The mermaid leader obviously noticed that I was carrying a mermaid on the boat, but she couldn't move and could only stare at me. I waved the mermaid in front of her, then deliberately smiled evilly and put my sharp claws on her white and tender neck. Then I looked at the mermaid patriarch with evil intentions. Of course she knew what I meant, but her eyes only flickered for a few seconds, and finally she closed her eyes. I saw two crystal tears flowing out of the corners of her eyes, but the singing suddenly became more violent. , Bingbing’s ears also started to bleed!

I put the captured mermaid on the boat and ignored her. Since the mermaid clan leader was not threatened by me, there was no point in killing her! Besides, I'm not a murderer, so I can't do anything to a mermaid that looks exactly like a human, and besides, it's a girl!

In desperation, I had to walk behind Bingbing and take off my heavy gloves, and then press Bingbing's ears tightly with my fur paws, hoping that the mermaid's singing would not directly enter the human nervous system! But my hope was dashed. Looking at Bingbing’s condition, I knew that it was completely useless for me to cover her ears!

By the way, Xiaofeng can't get close to him because of Phoenix's hearing problem, but insects seem to have special hearing structures. I wonder if a tank can withstand it! I immediately summoned the tank.

As soon as Tank came out, he looked around and then fixed his gaze on the mermaid leader. I opened the status bar of the tank and looked at it. It was all white, indicating that everything was normal and these music had no effect on insects!

"Tank, attack!"

Tank suddenly took off, and the buzzing sound of his wings actually covered up the singing. Bingbing's obvious relief showed that the power of the singing had decreased after being interfered with! As he spoke, Tank had already arrived in front of the Mermaid Patriarch. He opened his huge scythe and slashed at the Mermaid Patriarch, but as I expected, sparks flew and a blue ball membrane flashed out, which could not be penetrated at all!

Tank was also very annoyed. He stepped back and started spraying acid at the cover. The green liquid instantly covered the ball of light, but when the acid flowed down The intact ball of light inside is still there. Not afraid of acid liquid!

The tank changed its strategy again, this time it was orange poisonous fire. The flames still engulfed the ball of light instantly, but as soon as the tank stopped, the ball of light appeared in front of us again. I really can't stand it, this protective shield is soft and hard!

For the last time, Tank rushed to the side of the light ball and pressed his two attacking forelimbs tightly against his chest. Tank fiercely stretched out his forelimbs, and the bone hammers on the back of the two forelimbs hit the light ball hard. The entire light ball suddenly shook, but it was not penetrated!

But despite this, the mermaid leader inside was shocked. It seemed that she was shocked by the impact of that blow just now! I immediately put my hand next to the fire diamond on my head and concentrated my mind to summon the bee dragon. After a while, more than 700 bee dragons appeared. This scene was extremely spectacular. More than 700 bee dragons stared at the mermaid patriarch with red eyes. With a snap of my fingers, all the bee dragons rushed forward. Of course, they were shielded from the outside by the blue protective shield, but they were biting the blue shield crazily.

The entire shield was covered with a layer of bee dragons, and their bites caused the shield to flicker and become unstable. I commanded the nearby bee dragons to start to retreat, leaving only more than 300 of them clinging tightly to the outside of the shield, and then they all self-destructed at the same time with a bang. The blue shield flashed and became extremely dim. Under my instruction, the tank rushed forward and used his supersonic hammer attack again.

An extremely clear sound like breaking glass came out. The blue shield finally shattered, and the small blue fragments scattered like stars. Tank swept over with his scythe. The mermaid clan leader was distracted and could no longer maintain her magic. Her singing suddenly stopped and the water column disappeared. As a result, she fell down. Almost as soon as the singing stopped, Bingbing fell backwards. I rushed forward to catch her, but she was already unconscious!

I carefully put Bingbing down and then chased me to the side of the ship and watched the mermaid patriarch sinking to the bottom of the sea with her still unconscious subordinates. I didn't want to let them go just like that, so without thinking about anything, I dived into the water and followed the mermaid.

Since the mask of the magic dragon suit has the function of an underwater breathing apparatus, I can swim very comfortably now, but I have to admit that my swimming skills are really bad! Although most of the mermaids were already drowsy and looked like they would pass out at any time, the distance between me and them was getting wider and wider. Originally, I could still see the tails of the last few mermaids when I chased them, but now what? Out of sight too.

I don’t know how deep I swam or where I was. Although the Magic Dragon Suit has the function of an underwater breathing apparatus, it is not a diving suit after all. I am now sure that I am 'lost'!

I really admire myself, I actually got lost at the bottom of the sea! There is exactly the same seawater everywhere. This should be the middle layer of the sea. There is seawater above and below. I can't see the bottom of the water or the bottom of the sea! In desperation, I had no choice but to swim back and surface. When I surfaced, what I saw was a dark sea. Although there was moonlight, the visibility was not high. I looked around but couldn't see anything. After turning on the night vision function of Xingtong, I still couldn't see anything. Then I turned on the telescope function, but still found nothing.

There are several possibilities now. First, the Biling has sailed away, but this possibility is unlikely. First, everyone is still unconscious, and second, even if they wake up, they will not leave me alone! The second possibility is that I have swam very far away now, and I am looking in the wrong direction! There is no reference object in the sea, so I can't be sure that I have been swimming in a straight line, which means that I may have been spinning in one area!

I tried to use private chat, but it kept prompting that it was out of range. Then I turned the teleportation ring, but it prompted that teleportation magic is not allowed at sea. Wow, do I have to commit suicide before I can return to the ship?

"What are you doing here?" A soft female voice appeared behind me, and I quickly turned around and put on a defensive posture.

"Do you know I'm following you?" It was the mermaid clan leader who appeared in front of me, so I had to be careful.

She smiled. "The sound you make when you swim in the water is as loud as a sailboat. It can be heard clearly from miles away. The fish in the sea are very quiet when they swim. Only the races on your road make such a big noise after they go into the water! If I don’t know that I’m being followed, I should probably check my ears!”

"Then what do you mean by coming out now?" I asked carefully. Although I have confidence in my own strength, she is a mermaid after all, and this is the sea. I, a land race, will obviously not be able to survive in the water!

"Aren't you going to follow me? I think you're lost. I'll call you when I come back!" She looked at me mischievously and lost all the dignity I had when I was confronting Bingbing just now!

"Where are you taking me?"

"You'll know when you get here!"

She dived into the water first, and I followed her. Anyway, we can’t find the Biling now. It’s okay to float like this on the sea all the time!

"You...? Why did you attack our ship?"

"I am a World of Warcraft. Isn't it normal to attack players? If marine Warcraft does not attack players, do you think there will still be players in the ocean to level up?"

This mermaid patriarch is obviously the same type of NPC as Clark and many others. They all know the identity of their own NPCs, and their intelligence is very high and they are completely humanized! Is this another area for experimenting with artificial intelligence?
