The world is broken, the cubs mend it
Chapter 138 Mermaid Boss: Transaction
"I don't know, should it be possible?"
Xia Chi didn't know how to turn such jewelry into scales, so he could ask the boss to try. It was better to have something than nothing.
"I have a ring here too."
Lin Che brought it out from the previous dungeon. It had a sapphire inlaid in the middle. She thought the style was pretty good, so she took it with her.
The four players only collected three accessories, and Xia Chi only had that one valuable item on his body, which he had already handed over.
The few of them decided to go to the beach together and shouted Yuanyuan's name across the shore.
Vitalia was half lying on the grass, not yet asleep. The child in the crib was looking at him with his big eyes.
The child's schedule is not very regular. He goes to bed early when he is tired from playing. The amount of exercise today did not meet the standard, so he is particularly energetic now.
"Dad, tell me another story."
Yuanyuan has listened to three fairy tales and still has no desire to sleep.
"..."
Vitalia sighed and was about to start her next story when she was interrupted by shouts from the other side of the sea.
When the little guy heard someone calling his name, he curiously lifted up his blanket, climbed up, and looked towards the other side of the sea.
"Dad, they called me over to play."
"They didn't ask you to come over and play."
Vitalia was not happy when she heard those people say they wanted to make a deal with them.
He had counted seven of the invaders across the coast when they had been teleported in that day, and now they were only four.
I don’t know what more powerful monsters are in the castle opposite.
"But they said they have something to exchange with me. Dad, can I go over and take a look?"
Darkness completely enveloped the entire sea area, with only a full moon hanging in the sky, reflecting a little light on the turbulent sea surface.
Going home after dark is probably engraved in every child's genes. Yuanyuan will not leave his father without permission after dark.
"Don't worry about them yet."
Vitalia patted the child's head gently and was not very interested in human transactions.
Even if negotiations are necessary, the other party is more anxious, so let's wait and see their sincerity.
The little girl nodded without refutation of her father's words. She didn't really want to go into the water now.
The father and daughter ignored the shouts of the opposing players, and Vitalia continued to tell her child the fairy tale of the mermaids.
"Are they asleep?"
From such a distance, I could only vaguely see Vitalia lying on the grass, and I couldn't tell whether they were awake or asleep.
"The boss has very sensitive hearing. He can hear us at this distance. He probably doesn't want to pay attention to us."
Qin Yan leaned against a tree and asked everyone to stop shouting for the time being and to conserve their energy to deal with possible dangers that might occur at night.
"Then we can talk about it tomorrow. We'll just wait here."
Xia Chi didn't plan to go back to the castle, so he found a clean stone to sit on.
We all come here with sincerity, so the worst that can happen is we just have to wait one more night.
The players fell silent, and the entire sea area returned to tranquility. The mermaid ghost floating on the opposite shore glowed faintly in the night.
"Dad, you know so many things."
Yuanyuan's voice became murmuring and her eyelashes began to twitch. It seemed that she was sleepy.
"..."
Vitalia rested her head on her arm, and with her other hand she gently rocked the child's crib, with a tender smile in her eyes.
The last story told by the child was the biggest lie, but he was willing to keep telling the child interesting stories. Being needed by the child made him feel safe.
When Yuanyuan fell asleep completely, he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep with the child.
The players on the other side of the sea were not sleepy at all and were observing the situation around them with full vigilance.
The lights in the castle are dimmed, making it look lonely and eerie in the night, easily evoking some not-so-nice memories.
As the night deepened, the air at the seaside suddenly turned cold and a strong wind blew. Xia Chi wrapped his clothes tightly, glanced in the direction of the other side of the sea, stood up quickly and walked back quickly.
"Look at those ghosts..."
The ghosts that were originally wandering aimlessly on the island suddenly floated towards them in an orderly manner.
This is the challenge they face tonight.
Qin Yan, who had fought with a ghost once, knew very well how hot their bodies were, to the extent that blisters would form if the skin was touched.
"Everyone be careful, don't get touched by the ghost."
Everyone gathered their strength to dodge, but the ghost was hovering closely behind them. Fortunately, its speed was not as fast as that day in the sea, giving them room to dodge.
There will be a time when people's physical strength is exhausted, the players' speed will become relatively slow, the ghosts behind them will stick close to them, and the scorching temperature will force them to keep running.
No matter where they hide, these ghosts can ignore obstacles and pass through walls.
Vitalia could vaguely hear human voices in her sleep. She gradually regained consciousness from her coma and looked towards the other side of the river.
It turns out that this is the danger they face every night.
It was similar to the sea area before, but now he didn't need to do it himself.
When the sky turned slightly white, the ghosts stopped attacking and floated across the ocean in an orderly manner back to the island.
After being chased by the ghost for three or four hours, everyone was already exhausted and lay on the ground gasping for breath.
This kind of physical work is much better than mental invasion, at least it will not be solved silently.
"I'm going to die. I want to die now."
Xia Chi was lying on the grass, sweating profusely. This life was really not a human life.
He declared it the dumbest dungeon he had ever been in.
"Jump into the water and don't breathe. You'll die in a moment."
Lin Che sat aside, pulling at his clothes and shaking them. His long sleeves were already soaked, and he felt like he was paralyzed all over.
"Don't think like that, life is pretty good..."
Seeing this, the female player next to him advised him that it is better to live a miserable life than to die, because if he died, he would lose everything.
"Thank you, you are so kind."
Xia Chi smiled at the girl, then glared at Lin Che fiercely. He was really a piece of shit.
"Girl, what did you do before?"
Qin Yan looked at her with admiration in his eyes. After spending a few days with her, he found that although she was not talkative, she was quite capable.
“I was a police officer before I came in.”
Chu Lan pursed her lips and smiled slightly, then lowered her eyes to look at the ground with a melancholy expression. She didn't know how her family was doing.
“That’s pretty impressive!”
Although she looks weak on the outside, she is never slow in her actions and has never held anyone back.
When the sun rises, the big boss on the opposite side, like a pre-determined NPC, dives into the water to hunt again.
But today was different. She picked up a net in her hand and dived into the water without coming out for a long time.
"She is so filial!" Xia Chi couldn't help but sigh.
A three-year-old human cub is still at the stage where it needs parental care, but Vitalia has already started to eat the younger ones.
It really is a monster, and is indeed much more powerful than humans.
