Chapter 363 Ghost Marriage
"Boom!"
There seemed to be rolling thunder exploding in East Berwick Strait.
However, there was no flicker of lightning in the pervasive fog.
On the contrary, the sea surface, which was originally like stagnant water, suddenly became rough and windy.
The East Berwick Strait seemed to have turned into a long and narrow basin and began to shake continuously.
…
"Grrrrrrrr!"
The sea seemed to be boiled, constantly rolling and bubbling.
However, what escapes from the sea is not the billowing steam, but the endless chaotic spiritual energy buried deep in the seabed, which can also be called the evil spirit of the earth.
The thick ink-like aura of earthly evil spread out, and the East Berwick Strait, which was originally shrouded in fog, was immediately covered by dark clouds.
…
"Damn, what happened?"
"The fog in the space has begun to become corrosive. From the previous information, I have never heard of such a change in the East Berwick Strait."
On the Sea Shark, Benjamin, who was chasing Parmot in front of him, was so angry that he almost jumped.
Because the moment the evil spirit filled the air, the radar on the extraordinary battleship completely failed.
Not only that, the practitioners' perceptions were also seriously disturbed.
Although they were only a few hundred meters apart, Parmot's battleship was already looming in front of them, as if it would disappear in the next moment.
…
"Hahaha, God is really helping me!"
"Damn Benjamin, damn time and space merchant!"
"I will definitely fight back!"
Parmot, who was suddenly rescued from a desperate situation and almost caught up by Benjamin, was extremely excited.
His previous devouring was indeed effective. Not only did his talent improve, his luck also increased.
Otherwise, why would God take special care of me at this time?
At this moment, Parmot was full of hope for his future.
As the extraordinary battleship accelerated again, he finally got rid of Benjamin's lock and escaped into the depths of the fog.
After completely losing his prey, Benjamin felt regretful in his heart.
He shouldn't have hesitated for half a second before, but who would have thought that the second brother would be so cowardly?
This is really a turn of events!
…
After losing its prey, the Sea Shark randomly chose a direction to move forward and disappeared into the depths of the mist.
Benjamin now needs to recuperate, integrate his team, and wait for the cooldown period of the summoned doll to end.
Three days later, it will be time for him to show off his glory again.
The two princes parted ways. Logically speaking, Chen Qi, who was following them, should be worried about who should he choose to follow?
After all, after the evil spirit spread, Chen Qi's ability to collect information with the help of seawater was also greatly interfered with.
If he continues to be half-hearted, he may not be able to find a target at all.
However, at this time, Chen Qi suddenly changed direction.
Even more than that, he continued to dive, heading deeper into the East Berwick Strait.
The reason for this is because of the moment when the East Berwick Strait shook violently and the evil spirit of the earth filled the air.
The Ring of the Poseidon worn by Chen Qi, who had been staying at the Dinghai Divine Pillar, actually glowed again.
It's just that this blue light seems to be there, completely incomparable to the previous one.
…
"Strange, there seems to be something in the East Berwick Strait that is connected to the Ring of Poseidon!"
"Did other debris fall here?"
On top of the Dinghai Divine Pillar, Chen Qi looked at the Poseidon's Ring that was flashing in his hand in surprise.
This surprise came a bit unexpectedly, but wasn't the timing too coincidental?
Now I have to act as a bodyguard for others!
For a moment, Chen Qi was caught in a dilemma.
…
After thinking for a moment, Chen Qi finally made a decision.
If a man does not serve himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth!
The remaining two candidates, Third Prince Otley, are so powerful that there is no need to worry about them at all.
And that Daphne wanted to escape, so she wouldn't be killed so easily.
Even if Daphne died accidentally, how could a guy as strong as Otley survive to the finals, right?
Chen Qi decided to go back as soon as possible. It shouldn't take long.
It’s not easy for everyone these days. It’s not easy to come across an opportunity to make extra money, so of course you can’t miss it.
So under Chen Qi's control, the big octopus clone continued to dive towards the direction sensed by the Poseidon Ring.
…
The deeper he went to the bottom of the sea, the more dense the evil spirit in the sea water became, and the undercurrent became more turbulent.
If his clone wasn't really special, he probably wouldn't be able to dive in this environment.
If any cultivator is so stupid, what awaits him will be that his protective shield will be torn apart by the evil spirit, and his person will be crushed into pulp by the sea water.
"What happened under the sea?"
"This movement is too big!"
The deeper he dived, the more Chen Qi felt that something was wrong. There seemed to be something in the endless deep sea, which actually gave him a feeling of horror.
At a certain moment, a huge figure passed by Chen Qi.
Chen Qi didn't even react at all and was swallowed directly.
Damn it, who is so wicked as to disturb the giant sea monster?
…
While Benjamin and others were fighting each other, Liv, who luckily escaped Otley's pursuit, finally met the legendary Siren.
However, what shocked her was that these slit banshees, which looked like humanoid sharks, were the legendary sirens with unparalleled beauty?
Did you identify the wrong species, or were the ancient legends lying?
…
"Human, don't be surprised. We are the sirens you know."
"We are not what we are now. This is the price we pay for our wisdom."
"You should be Cynthia's child. After so many years, I didn't expect that she would actually become the queen of the Kingdom of Droyal."
There were three sirens in front of Liv, all of them female.
One was old and ugly, one was in the prime of life, and only the youngest one didn't look so ferocious.
At this time, the old siren tried to show a kind face, but it always gave people a sense of horror and weirdness.
If these sirens hadn't said her mother's name, Liv, who was a bit obsessed with face, would have planned to let her men beat these monsters into the sea.
...
"It seems that you are indeed the group of sirens in my mother's mouth."
"Can your blessing really make me more beautiful?"
It has to be said that Liv is of the same lineage as her mother. She just got out of danger and she was thinking about becoming beautiful again.
But Liv just didn't give up and asked casually.
After all, the appearance of these sirens was too ugly and unconvincing.
...
"Child, you can trust us when it comes to becoming beautiful!"
"The reason why your mother is so beautiful is because she has received our blessing."
"And our blessing is essentially to give you humans the beauty we have lost."
"From the perspective of appearance alone, your mother is now the real siren."
The old siren looked at Liv kindly, and the latter was stunned after hearing the truth.
The so-called blessing of the siren turned out to be to give humans the appearance she had lost.
My mother is now the real siren?
But after the shock, Liv's eyes immediately became hot.
Her biggest wish since she was a child was to become a beautiful woman like her mother.
As for the fight for the throne, if she had no choice, she would not bother to participate.
…
“If I accept the blessing, can I be as beautiful as my mother?”
“Tell me, what price do I have to pay to get the blessing!”
Although Liv’s mind is full of how to become beautiful, her experience of being born in the royal family tells her that there is no free advantage in the world, and you have to pay something more or less.
“Child, you are really smart and lovely!”
“After my blessing, your beauty will definitely match your wisdom.”
“It’s very simple to get the blessing, as long as you sign a contract with a sea monster and promise to marry it after death.”
“In this way, after you die, your soul shadow will be reincarnated into the body of this sea monster.”
“When you are completely combined, a sea monster with wisdom will be your crystallization.”
“This is the unique way of inheritance for us sea monsters after encountering disasters. The three of us were born this way.”
The old sea monster looked at Liv with great satisfaction, as if she was looking at some rare treasure.
In fact, she said a little less. The probability of giving birth to a wise sea monster in the inheritance method of their sea monsters, which is similar to [ghost marriage], is not high.
Generally speaking, the stronger the luck of the human who signed the contract, the greater the probability of giving birth to an intelligent sea monster.
As Princess Liv, there is at least a 1/3 probability of giving birth to an intelligent sea monster, which is already very high.
...
"What?"
"You want me to marry a sea monster after I die?"
Liv widened her eyes in disbelief. Is this the price her mother paid?
And the sea monsters mentioned by the old sea monster are not the mantis shrimps and giant octopuses in the sea.
They are a kind of sea monster evolved from sea monsters without wisdom.
They are not only extremely ugly, but also very cruel and brutal.
According to the old sea monster, only when the soul shadow of a human after death enters, this sea monster will become gentle and give birth to offspring.
Liv felt sick just thinking about that scene.
A woman who dares to sign such a contract must be cruel to herself.
...
"Aren't you afraid of the World Government and the Sword of Judgment?"
"The human soul cannot be desecrated!"
"Can you change the conditions?"
It is impossible to let herself marry an ugly sea monster even after death.
But Liv did not give up. After all, who doesn't want to become more beautiful!
So she had other thoughts in her mind. Under coercion and temptation, she didn't believe that she couldn't deal with these sea monsters.
However, her little thoughts could not be hidden from the old sea monster who had lived for a long time.
…
“Child, you are too naive. There are many things you don’t know in this world!”
“We, the sirens, are just borrowing the soul shadows of humans. We have not touched the essence of human souls, so we will not conflict with the world government at all.”
“Of course, we also need to pay some price. For example, some of our inheritances have long become your human things.”
“Not only that, we also have to work part-time as jailers and intelligence scouts to help you humans guard the taboos suppressed in the sea and monitor the various aliens hiding in the deep sea.”
“In fact, we borrowed [Soul Shadow], and the real offenders were the death gods of [Underworld].”
“Unfortunately, their relationship with V5 has been a bit strained recently, and they haven’t come to human territory to conduct business for a long time.”
…
The words of the old witch really shocked Liv. She never thought that the Siren was inextricably linked to the World Government.
These sea monsters are actually working for the World Government.
It makes sense to think about it. Without the permission of the world government, how could they live stably in the human world.
Like other alien races and aliens, he had been killed by the sword of judgment, and his head was cut off with blood flowing.
As a result, many of the vicious ideas in Liv's mind were obviously impossible to implement.
…
"Then can you help me win this battle for the throne?"
"For example, help me kill those brothers and sisters of mine!"
After realizing that becoming beautiful was not something that could be achieved in a short period of time, Liv immediately sharpened her IQ and began to focus on the present.
She has not forgotten that the third prince Otley is still eyeing her covetously!
Without foreign aid, she is no match.
…
"My child, I'm going to disappoint you!"
"We have promised that we will never take the initiative to attack humans."
"So we could only help you get out of trouble by controlling the fog!"
"People, after all, still have to rely on themselves!"
The old witch's words seemed to have a meaning, but Liv didn't believe that it would have no purpose in meeting her.
"Tell me, how can you help me?"
"Or what should I do to win the battle for the throne."
Liv, who was disappointed one after another, couldn't control her emotions. For a beauty-conscious person like her, chatting with these three sirens was really a bit of a torture.
…
"Child, do you know why there is fog today?"
"There are rumors that we created the fog, but how is this possible?"
"The East Berwick Strait is 5,000 kilometers long, and there are only about 20 of our tribe members left."
"The reason why there is fog here is because there is something wrong with the suppression formation below."
The old siren didn't pay any attention to Liv's impatient look, and continued to tell a story about the East Berwick Strait.
…
"That was before the birth of the World Government. Mu Dingtian, the last pirate king, had a decisive battle with many of his opponents and aliens in the East Berwick Strait."
"To a certain extent, the birth of East Berwick originated from that battle."
"After the war, the victorious Mu Dingtian completely sealed the battlefield under the sea and handed it over to our siren's care."
"Mu Dingtian did this to punish those who betrayed him, because he also sealed countless living prisoners under the sea."
"The earthly evil spirit permeates the seal, and life will only be eroded bit by bit until death. It is definitely the most painful way to die in the world, and it is also the Pirate King's favorite punishment."
"In order to prolong the death time of those traitors, Mu Dingtian also forced us to put the out-of-control sea monster into the seal on time."
"Because only they can survive within the seal."
"Thousands of years have passed, and the traitors in the seal have long been eliminated, but due to the contract. As long as the seal exists, we still need to put the out-of-control tribesmen into it."
"But now our tribe is on the verge of extinction. There are only three of us sea monsters left with wisdom, and less than twenty sea monsters who have lost their minds."
"So we hope you can open the seal and release all the surviving clan members inside."
…
After nagging for a while, the old witch finally revealed her purpose.
Liv looked depressed because she couldn't see any benefit in this matter, so why should she help others.
Unless these sea monsters agree to bless themselves.
But Liv didn't expect that there would be so few sirens in the East Berwick Strait?
No wonder few humans have witnessed the existence of the Kraken recently.
Of course, those passing witnesses were ordinary people, otherwise how could they see the beautiful sea monster.
Liv was about to decline politely because she had no ability. After all, she really didn't know how to open the seal, and she couldn't even dive into the bottom of the sea.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the old siren actually took out a blue ring.
…
"This is the fragment of Poseidon's Ring that fell here not long ago!"
"This must be God's will to break the seal!"
"As long as you promise to break the seal, this Poseidon's Ring will be yours."
"More than that, with the Ring of Poseidon, you will not be attacked by any out-of-control sea monsters."
"The sea monster living in the seal below has been completely transformed into a violent thing by the evil spirit."
"As long as you open the seal, all life in the East Berwick Strait will be extinct except for us."
"Child, this temptation should be enough, right?"
The old siren had no idea and took out his real bargaining chip.
If the Ring of Poseidon could only be used by humans, why would they bother talking nonsense to Liv.
…
"It's really the Poseidon's Ring?"
"Okay, okay, I promise you!"
"Hahaha, it's God's will that I inherit the throne!"
The moment she saw the Poseidon's Ring, Liv grabbed it directly, while the old Siren just watched all this silently without doing anything to stop it.
Everything she did was a conspiracy.
…
This Poseidon's Ring cannot enhance the user's power. It has only one effect, which is to control and influence sea monsters.
So Liv also had no choice. As long as she wanted to live, she could only completely open the seal and turn the East Beric Strait into a paradise for sea monsters.
Only in this way could she completely eliminate all competitors and live alone.
And Liv obviously understood all this, so she would really do it.
The seal was broken, the sea monster was born, and the eight heirs to the throne died tragically. There is no more perfect script than this.
So under the leadership of the old mermaid, Liv, wearing the ring of Poseidon, dived to the seal on the seabed and completely opened it.
…
At that moment, the evil spirit erupted like a super volcano, and countless sea monsters like giant mountains rushed out.
They devoured any life in the sea eagerly and began to float up continuously.
This is the reason why the sea began to turbulent constantly. It is conceivable what kind of tragic things will happen next.
And the first unlucky guy was the giant octopus clone that Chen Qi dived into.
It was swallowed directly by an out-of-control sea monster!
