Chapter 270 The Tragic Situation of the Mermaid Tribe

Following Natasha's movements, ripples appeared on the originally calm lake surface. Then, many people with fish-like tails appeared. After seeing Natasha, they all moved towards her.

Immediately afterwards, a very old man appeared. The man had white hair and a silver beard, and his golden eyes looked a bit old and decadent.

Natasha looked at him and communicated in the unique language of the mermaid tribe.

For some reason, tears suddenly flowed from the man's eyes, and then he gently stroked Natasha's hair.

Other mermaids also started their own unique rituals, circling around Natasha. Their expressions were very heavy, but not sad at all, like a happy welcome ceremony.

"Master, you and your friends are here. The person in front of me is the clan leader. He wants to thank you personally."

Natasha sent a message to Su Chendao.

After Su Chen heard this, he was not pretentious. After all, the mermaid tribe is also a race that values ​​love and justice, and Xiaoxian's tribe has not been found yet. Maybe the leader of the mermaid tribe knows where it is after staying in the Western Wilderness for so many years.

Thinking of this, Su Chen walked over with a few people.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Su Chen stepped forward, the other mermaids all transformed into legs and walked on the ground. Perhaps because the people in front of them were humans, their important parts were covered, and they were not as unrestrained as in the ancient secret realm.

Even so, compared to other creatures, it is still a bit sexy and revealing.

"Hello."

Su Chen took the lead in saying hello.

"Hello, kindhearted person, I am Ovid, the leader of the mermaid tribe. Thank you very much for bringing Natasha back from the remote ancient secret realm."

Ovid looked at Su Chen lovingly, his eyes full of gratitude.

"I was entrusted by her mother. This is just a little effort. I want to see Natasha recognize her ancestors and return to her family."

Su Chen suddenly didn't know how to deal with such a kind old man and stammered.

He had imagined what many mermaid tribes looked like, but he never expected that they would look like this. They looked very much like the slums of modern society. They had obviously suffered a lot of torture.

"Natasha, she is my great-granddaughter. If it weren't for you, I might not be able to see her for the last time until I die."

Ovid's eyes were already a little moist. He never dreamed that he would see his daughter's granddaughter in his lifetime.

It’s just my poor daughter…

That’s all, it’s all God’s will.

"Natasha is your...great-granddaughter."

Su Chen was slightly surprised. The situation in the ancient secret realm was too dangerous and he didn't have time to understand much.

He thought it was just an ordinary mermaid, but he never expected that she was an orphan entrusted to her by the clan leader's daughter.

"But why is it that Natasha can't transform into a human form and can't speak, but you all can..."

Su Chen was slightly surprised, and then asked immediately.

Hearing this, Ovid sighed and continued: "Normally, every mermaid born in the mermaid tribe must be blessed before they can grow legs and speak, but because Natasha was not there, If you are born into the mermaid clan, you can only maintain the appearance of a mermaid.”

Having said this, he looked at Natasha with an unbearable expression.

"Everyone who comes is a guest. If you can bring Natasha back, you will be the benefactor of our mermaid clan. Please allow me to prepare a sumptuous meal for you."

Ovid whispered.

As soon as the words fell, the other mermaids began to pack up.

They were led into the depths, which looked like a natural cave with a pool below, and the rest of the dry place had no furniture for human survival.

Most of these busy mermaids are emaciated, and some are emaciated, as if they have been malnourished for a long time. Even Ovid, the leader of the clan, is not much better.

His figure is shriveled, so thin that only skin and bones are left. Just look at the layer of skin hanging on it, and his two eye sockets are sunken inside. There are shallow fish scales on his arms and upper waist, but they have lost their luster, like Dead things.

It’s hard to imagine that this is the beautiful mermaid race described in the book.

Even the mermaids who lived in the ancient secret realm were all unparalleledly handsome, and they did not look like they do now.

Seeing her people fall into such a miserable situation, Natasha couldn't help but shed tears. She wanted to ask what was going on, but she never found the chance.

Luluo felt uncomfortable. She stayed beside Luo Shen and couldn't help but ask: "They look so pitiful. In my memory, the mermaid tribe are all beautiful."

Luo Shen sighed leisurely. The current situation is probably related to the envoy from the Western Wilderness.

For a moment, she didn't know what to say. She felt that silence was the best at the moment.

Yi Zhuyue pursed her lips, feeling a little unbearable.

As both spiritual beasts, Xiaoxian looked at them like this when they were hungry, and then thought that he would be very uncomfortable if he didn't have enough to eat, and it was obvious that they would not be able to be full and hungry for a long time.

Thinking of this, Xiaoxian also rushed to help, wanting to share the burden with the mermaid tribe.

The mermaids were scared when they saw Xiaoxian at first, but after thinking that he was a spiritual pet brought by his benefactor, they slowly accepted him.

Su Chen was sitting on a simple chair, with a corner of the table even broken off, looking very shabby.

"I remember that the mermaid tribe is obviously a very powerful race, but why..."

Su Chen couldn't talk any more. He always felt that he was exposing the scars of the mermaid clan.

Natasha was also curious about the question he asked. She didn't understand why the mermaid tribe her mother had described was a peaceful and beautiful place.

How come it has become like this now.

"To be honest, benefactor, you must have heard the rumors when you came to the Western Wilderness. It was because of the outsiders who came here hundreds of thousands of years ago, who kept capturing spiritual beasts with high spiritual power. Now all the respected elders of the mermaid tribe have been captured by him."

Ovid's eyes were moist at the end. When he was not the patriarch and was still young, the mermaid tribe relied on the protection of those elders.

But now, everything is different. The entire mermaid tribe has been suppressed to the point of being completely exhausted, and even basic survival has become a problem.

Even other tribes are in danger. At this juncture, no one can take care of anyone else. It is already difficult for their own tribe to survive.

As soon as Su Chen heard it, he knew that it was Rambo's trick. When he read the book before, he always thought that Rambo was so powerful, but he was defeated by the protagonist's halo, and he always felt a little unconvinced.

But now that he has entered the book in person, he realized how cruel Rambo's actions were.
