Desharow Mermaid - Chap 78

Chapter 78

　At the moment when this idea came to mind, an astonishing cluster of sparks exploded from the bow of the ship, and suddenly many fleeing figures appeared in front of my eyes. A boy in a kimono ran out of the cabin, and I recognized it as Yukimura I met on Mermaid Island.

　I called out to him reflexively, but he just looked around hastily with a desperate expression as if he couldn’t see my existence.

　The bitter sea wind tore the corners of his trench coat, making him look like a fragile and beautiful bird. He stumbled back to the edge of the boat, as if he was in extreme fear of something.

　I followed his line of sight and saw what he dreaded.

　It was a merman with a dark purple tail. The scorching fire light shone on his blood-soaked body, which looked so shocking in the dark night, like a vengeful undead crawling out of the grave. He slowly climbed out of the stairs leading from the bilge to the deck, his wet black hair dragging on the tail of the fish, like a cluster of parasitic moray eels. I noticed that a samurai sword was pierced through his back and came out from his abdomen, but it didn’t seem to hinder his movement. He quickly grabbed the fleeing people on the boat, as cruel as a seasoned butcher They tore their bodies apart, and blood flowed into rivers on the deck in an instant. But during this process, his eyes were staring at Xuecun without blinking, his eyes were filled with some kind of emotion close to madness.

　I’m pretty sure that look wasn’t real hate, it was the opposite.

　Skin-to-skin love.

　The word popped into my head suddenly. But I dare not speculate on the entanglement between them, because the protagonist of the story unfolding in front of me is not me, but I just stare blankly at the thrilling scene in front of me like a demon, as if accidentally peeping into the record. A corner of a page in the diary of someone else’s secret past.

　”I’m sorry…” I suddenly heard Yukimura yelling like that, tears streaming down his fair cheeks. He leaned against the side of the boat and knelt down on the ground, but in such a flustered situation, he still maintained the traditional etiquette. He prostrated on the ground in a posture that was almost worshipful, bowed to the mermaid, and raised his head again, smiling. Like crying: “You are the god of the sea…how can I offend you? I beg you to let the people on this ship go, as if I have never met you…” “Session…Session…”

　The

　mermaid He uttered this syllable like a mantra in his mouth, meandering through the staggered corpses on the deck, and slowly approached Xuecun who bowed to him, stretched out his bloody hand and lifted his chin, forcing him to raise his head .

　Xuecun looked at him obediently, he stretched out his trembling hand as if he wanted to caress the mermaid’s webbed claws, but he was hanging in mid-air, his fingers trembling. Those beautiful eyes suppressed a deep nostalgia. I thought he might be in love with this mermaid, but besides that, I read deeper despair and pain on his face.

　A bad premonition suddenly surged up in my heart, and my feeling was confirmed in the next second.

　I saw Yukimura grabbing the handle of the samurai sword at an alarming speed, stabbing the sharp blade into the mermaid’s body, the tip piercing himself directly, then he hugged him tightly, Falling backwards into the vast sea, like a pair of close lovers who died in love…

　”Snow Village!” I couldn’t help but shouted while lying on the side of the boat, looking at the sea, even though I knew it was a couple of years ago. I am still horrified by the phantoms recorded by the magnetic field. What kind of entanglement is there between Xuecun and this purple-tailed mermaid, so that the two of them will come to such a tragic end? I can’t help recalling Xuecun’s experience and his lonely blue figure in the sea in my mind, and my heart throbs inexplicably.

　”Session…”

　At this time, this faint call suddenly sounded again from behind me. Before I could turn around, I smelled a stench of blood. The viscous liquid like venom dripped down my shoulders. The haggard black claws stretched out from the back of my waist at some point, and a deep chill seeped into my back, making me feel like falling into an ice cellar. I realized that the monster behind me, I don’t know what to call it, it used to be the mermaid who was involved with Yukimura, and now it probably regards me as Yukimura’s shadow… “Hey… I, I am not

　Yukimura !” My mouth was trembling, I raised my knees and stepped on the railing, with only one thought in my mind: run! But in an instant, I heard a creepy hoarse laughter from behind, and the pair of webbed claws resting on my waist were stuck in my throat unexpectedly, and I saw the monster’s jaw stretched like a shark from the corner of my eye. With a horrifying magnitude, the mouth cracked to the temporal bone, and it bit my shoulder heavily!

　I screamed in uncontrollable pain, my eyes went dark, “Ah——”

　”Dert, Delt!!”

　At this moment, I heard a familiar voice shouting my alias, dripping cold water When it landed on my face, I immediately opened my eyes, panting out of breath, and the faces of Rhodea, Nick, and several other Poseidon companions appeared in front of my eyes. When I was pulled up by them, I suddenly found myself lying on the deck of the Poseidon, and those horrifying illusions just now had disappeared without a trace. I couldn’t help but wonder if I had a nightmare? But how could I dream about Xuecun’s past? It’s something I don’t know about at all, and it’s so wrong.

　I wiped the water on my face, and my memory seemed to be stuck in the vortex just now, which made me doubt whether I was in reality or a dream at this moment. The hand on my shoulder brought me back to reality: “Delter, why are you lying here? We thought you fell into the sea!” “I don’t know.” I raised my head in

　confusion Looking at them, “You… have you experienced anything strange just now?”

　”Fog. Just now we sailed to a famous ship disappearance area and got caught in a cloud of fog, but we have sailed out of that area, not far from Hiroshima. But speaking of weirdness, aha, I don’t think there is anything like this It’s even more strange, Delt, you should come and see.” Nick lifted me up from the deck, and my raised arm was pulled to my own arm, and there was a sting immediately at the place where I was bitten just now, and I was nervous I touched it, but felt that there was no wound exposed on the skin, only a swollen piece. It’s incredible.

　I followed them all the way to the captain’s cabin, and I saw the screen of the radar scanner at a glance, showing that there was a large object that appeared only a hundred meters away from us, which looked like a small island or an abandoned ship .

　”What’s that?” I pointed to the screen.

　”The wreck of a ship!” Nick looked very excited, looking eager to try, “We’re very close to it, I have a hunch that we’re going to make a fortune again.” “I feel the same. We should be

　lucky The speed is faster than our new boss, according to the law of the sea, they can’t share our share of the pie, see first serve.” Rhodea snapped her fingers and giggled.

　”Boat?” I stared at the image that became clearer and clearer, the chill penetrated into the marrow of my bones, and even my teeth chattered. I turned around and shook my head: “Don’t go there, trust me, there’s danger there.” ”

　That’s impossible, buddy.” Sherlock, the first officer on the Poseidon, patted me on the shoulder, “Because We must go through the radiant point.” He pointed to the green route on the navigator next to the screen, “This is the route our new boss set for us, go around here and pass through this strait , we will enter the final destination – Yan Luo… Forbidden Cave, well, it should be the name, anyway, the wreckage of the ship is near the entrance of the strait.” Nick clapped his hands, “Oh,

　this is God sent Good luck, I have a hunch that we will all become billionaires! After this time, we don’t have to wander around anymore. I want to immigrate to the United States and find a beautiful California girl…”

　”Hey, hey, hey!” I couldn’t bear to interrupt his dream, I pressed Nick’s shoulders, and looked at these outlaws who were more courageous than their lives, “Listen, don’t be so ecstatic, I My premonition is exactly the opposite of yours! Listen… I saw a monster just now…” ”

　What monster?” Rhodea looked at me playfully, “Did you see it when you were lying on the deck and sleeping?”

　”He’s probably dreaming of a sexy mermaid!”

　Several other people burst into laughter. I rubbed my forehead, knowing that there was no way I could convince them of the vision I had seen, that it would be impossible for them to give up the possible wealth that was right in front of them. When I was thinking about what to do, the speed of the voyage had gradually slowed down. I heard the beeping sound of the navigator and the radar, and the towering silhouettes of the two sides of the strait appeared vaguely in the darkness outside the window. Looking into the distance with night vision, I saw a large ship moored on the left side of the entrance of the strait. With the waves up and down, the hull seemed to hit the cliff from time to time, apparently abandoned for a long time.

　As the distance got closer and closer, I gradually saw that the hull of the ship was covered with some kind of black attachment, as if covered with thick coal, and I couldn’t tell its original appearance at all. But the only thing I can judge is that it is not the Japanese ship I was in in the illusion, it is much bigger than it, comparable to the rumored Titanic. This is a cruise ship. The wrecked cruise ship is the most dreamed fat of all salvage teams at sea. The relics of the rich people hidden in its body are of inestimable value. It is completely impossible to ask these guys who work for money on the Poseidon to give up the task.

　I frowned and looked at the few people who had already opened their beer to celebrate, took down the guns hanging on the wall one by one, copied them in my hand, and smashed their beer cans angrily: “Hey, hey! Don’t Get carried away, bring these guys with you!”

　”Derte, when did you become as virtuous as Kolov!” Lodia smiled nonchalantly, took the gun and went, “Aren’t you going ? Our most adventurous knight?”

　”I…” I couldn’t help clenching my hand on the gun shaft, God knows how long I will go with them! But Agares is still lying locked in the cabin——I am a nurse now, so I can’t leave the patient behind, oh no, the sick fish don’t care. So I turned to pick up the pager and raised it, which means that I will stay as a backup and wait for their news at any time.

　Several people quickly packed up their luggage and arrived at the black ship safely through the iron chain. I watched their figures searching on the deck, my shoulders became more and more painful, and the ringing in my ears was buzzing in my head. Waddled. My instinct was that going to Agares might be the best choice now, so I hurried back to my cabin.

　As soon as I walked to the door, I heard a sound of chains hitting in my cabin, and I couldn’t help breathing tight. I was worried that Agares had another abnormal state, so I opened the door carefully, but I saw He turned his head sideways, the color of his eyes hadn’t turned into that pure black, he felt relieved, locked the door tightly with his backhand, and walked to his side. I found that the chains that bound him were pulled and deformed by him, leaving deep purple bruises on his skin, obviously those noises were caused by his struggle.

　I couldn’t help leaning down and kissing the places where he was strangled by chains one by one. His body was extremely dry at this time, and his skin was slightly peeling like after being exposed to the sun. This made me feel a little uneasy. Is Agares an aquatic creature? , out of the sea for a long time may turn him into a huge dried fish, I should get some water to keep him moist. Thinking of this, I immediately squatted down and dug out the wooden bucket for bathing under the boat, but was swept away by his untied rear half of the tail: “Where have you been, Desaro?” I raised my head and

　was I met his gaze staring at me, and the deep worry couldn’t be hidden in his eyes.

　”On the deck.” I obediently lay down on the bed, curled up next to his dry body, and pressed against his face. I felt his lips were also dry and peeled, and I couldn’t help but lick them subconsciously before I confessed: ” But I encountered some strange things, I saw some visions, it was about the mermaid named “Snow Village”, do you know him?”

　”Snow Village?” Agares frowned in denial, “We don’t call each other with vocal syllables like humans, but through sound waves that you can’t hear. And I can’t guarantee that I have something for each of my ethnic groups. Impressions, except for certain special existences.”

　”Then what was your original name?” My thinking seemed to go astray immediately.

　”My name is taboo, Desaro, and only corpses at death ceremonies are allowed to hear my name.” ”

　Why? Is it as important to your dignity as a human being?” I smiled.

　”We don’t have that kind of constraint, Desaro. We rely on strength and blood to determine the king. My name is a code of rebirth. When I say it myself, our brood will be awakened, and her life channel will be opened. Come to give birth to a new life.”

　He leaned against my ear and whispered each word, and my mind suddenly imagined a structure like a beehive. Now I have finally figured out how mermaids reproduce. They are all hatched from broods, and they selectively assimilate humans through divergent spores to achieve the purpose of expanding their race, instead of continuing their offspring through viviparous birth like mammals. This conclusion is even more unbelievable than the UFO files. It is the best evidence to prove that mermaids are indeed a miraculous race. It is a pity that I did not research these mysteries, but mermaids that were supposed to be studied by me. What the leader told me himself was a frustrating good fortune. What’s even more regrettable is that I can never write this experience into a thesis, I can only satisfy my thirst for knowledge.

　”I think this may be one of the reasons why those Nazis think you are very important.”

　I stroked Agares’ cheek, he closed his eyes, brushed my palm with his lips, but he seemed to smell something unusual The smell stared at my shoulder vigilantly, “Desaro, take off your clothes and let me see your body.”

　”Damn it, I almost forgot, I was just about to show you this.” I just woke up like a dream, unbuttoned the shoulder that was attacked, looked down, and suddenly found that the shoulder was swollen Even bigger, the same black spots as on Agares’s body faintly revealed under the skin, and they moved slightly underneath. My heart suddenly fell into the abyss, and I looked at Agares in astonishment. His facial expression was stiff, his lower eyelids trembled slightly, and he was silent for a moment before he opened his mouth: “I will hurt you, but I have to do it.” My heart was shaking, and my mind was almost

　because this sentence sounded quite strange. The ambiguous words ran sideways, nodded, he raised his neck, and I passed my shoulders over, he grinned and held the flesh there, the fangs in his mouth seemed to be testing how to bite so that I would not hurt so much, While hesitating, those half-dry hairs made my chest itch, I couldn’t help lowering my head, and rubbed my lips provocatively against his cheek: “Hey, do it, sir…”

　He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, like sucking a kiss After staying on my shoulder for a while, the fangs pierced heavily, and opened a gash the length of my index finger on my skin. After sucking out a mouthful of bright red blood, I was surprised to find that a strand of blood emerged from my skin. It was a hair-like black filament, but it was moving. It tried to retract into my body, but Agares grabbed it in one bite, pulled it out and spit it out on the ground. The pain at that moment was like skin cramps , The pain made me tremble all over. But fortunately, this torture only lasted a few seconds, and Agares’ tongue quickly relieved my pain like a dose of anesthetic.

　”What was that just now, Agares?” I buried my head in his neck and gasped.

　”The ‘yoila’ affected by dark matter belongs to a polluted young species, you are being targeted by it, Desaro, the polluted ones are very dangerous, they can appear at any time, space, and place, because their lives The shape has changed.”

　”Time, place, space?” I sighed in disbelief, this is something that exists beyond three dimensions, it should be called a four-dimensional creature, no wonder that ghost thing can exist without me Attacking me without awareness, time and space are not limited to them, isn’t this as terrifying as ghosts?
