Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

The next moment, Chixing hugged his arm and started sobbing. Baiyu guessed that he couldn't find his way home.

The mermaid sighed, picked up the cub, and patted his back to comfort him.

Her delicate pink lips spoke again: "Then I'll take you to find a ship at sea another day, but that will probably be a few months from now."

Ships don't often come to this area, and even if they do, they might not be able to save the cub.

A person and a fish were sitting on the rocks watching the sea. It must have been summer, as the wind was blowing and they didn't feel cold.

If he were alone, he would go to the island behind to find some leaves to pitch a tent, but mermaids can't walk, right? Do they need to soak in the water from time to time?

Akahoshi had little contact with the merfolk before and didn't really know their lifestyle.

He also didn't understand the Great Triangle of the ocean in this world.

250 told him in his mind's eye: "Mermaids cannot stay out of water for long. The Immortal Lord is the king of the mermaid race, and he recently killed the previous king."

Akashi's eyes widened; he hadn't expected that Ayu in this world was quite formidable.

250 continued: "[It's more than just powerful. This Immortal Lord single-handedly brought another race under his command; in this ocean, there's no animal that doesn't know him.]"

Most mermaids in the sea are brightly colored, but this one is silvery-white, like the moonlight in the depths of winter, pure and cold.

[By the way, the immortal lord's name here is Bai Yu, and the protagonist, Bai Beibei, is his nephew.]

In the original storyline, Bai Beibei left Atlantis without permission and was captured by bad guys who were researching mermaids. After several twists and turns, she was bought by the protagonist, Gong Chilin, at an illegal auction house in Country A.

After obtaining the beautiful blue mermaid, Chi Lin built an underground swimming pool to keep the mermaid in it.

He firmly believed that mermaids, like humans, could communicate and had a certain level of intelligence. Over time, he actually taught the mermaid to speak.

Bai Beibei was naive by nature and quickly lost herself in the world constructed by Chi Lin.

Chi Lin said that humans and mermaids could fall in love. After Bai Beibei refused several times, she was eventually moved by his romantic gestures and sweet words, and the two became lovers.

Akahoshi flipped through the original plot and saw the ending.

This is a sweet romance novel. In the end, Chi Lin builds a larger ocean world for Bai Beibei to live in, and the two are affectionate and sweet every day.

Akahoshi felt something was off, and 250 immediately added.

This is not the ending at all; the rest of the story is left unwritten.

Chi Lin managed to win Bai Beibei's complete trust. After repeatedly saying that he had never been to Bai Beibei's house, Bai Beibei decided to take Chi Lin back to Atlantis for a visit.

Unbeknownst to him, Chi Lin had already joined forces with illegal research institutes in other countries to conduct research on the mermaids of Atlantis.

However, they would lose their way every time they came to the Great Triangle of the Ocean, and many ships never returned. Finding the entrance to Atlantis was extremely difficult.

Because a mermaid was captured, Baiyu strictly forbade the mermaids from going out, not even to the Great Triangle of the Ocean.

Since the researchers couldn't catch the mermaid, Chi Lin looked for a solution with Bai Beibei.

When Bai Beibei took people to Atlantis, she was completely unaware that a submarine carrying researchers was following behind the ship.

Of course, Chi Lin wouldn't be foolish enough to go to the mermaids' territory. As soon as they arrived at the entrance to Atlantis, Chi Lin took Bai Beibei and left.

Atlantis is facing an unprecedented crisis. Its entrance has been exposed, and many countries have sent personnel to study it.

Many mermaids have been captured because they live up to 500 years, and researchers are determined to find the secret to their longevity.

They conducted all sorts of inhumane experiments on mermaids, and some even turned them into dishes.

Bai Yu led the mermaid army in resistance, but they were no match for firearms and could only retreat back to the palace after suffering heavy casualties time and time again.

Finally, Bai Yu found the formation that had not been activated for thousands of years.

As the strongest being in Atlantis, Bai Yu sacrificed himself.

The formation activated, and the ocean triangle was once again covered by hurricanes, torrential rain, and countless lightning bolts. All the warships and ships at sea were shattered by the powerful lightning.

This terrible weather persisted for three whole years, causing a dramatic change in the ocean's magnetic field, and the entrance to Atlantis changed along with the formation.

Since then, humans have never found any trace of Atlantis or mermaids, and even the Great Triangle has become one of the most dangerous places in the world.

"Did Chi Lin and Bai Beibei die in the end?" Chi Xing asked.

250: [They were all cleaved into ashes, and even the mermaids in the research institute mysteriously disappeared and returned to the sea, as if they had never existed.]

This is not magic; it is the mercy that Heaven has shown to the merfolk.

Mermaids live in the deep sea and have not learned human cunning. If they are discovered, the only consequence will be the extinction of their race.

But as time went on, some mermaids became disobedient and brought misfortune to Atlantis.

According to the laws of nature, sacrificing the strongest mermaid of the mermaid race can change the fate of their extinction.

Akahoshi turned his head to look. Shirayu was lying on the reef, with a small part of its tail submerged in the seawater. As the tail swayed, seawater splashed everywhere, but it did not splash onto Akahoshi.

The moonlight appeared on the sea at some unknown time, large and round, illuminating everything and making the white jade seem to glow.

The silvery-white scales shimmered; such a beautiful mermaid truly shouldn't have been discovered.

"Why did you save people?" Akahoshi couldn't help but ask.

If he had saved those greedy humans, wouldn't the little mermaid have been in danger?

Bai Yu blinked her big eyes upon hearing his words, her pink lips parted slightly, and she uttered two words that sounded somewhat hesitant: "Save...someone?"

"Yes, it's about saving lives. Bringing me up here is about saving lives."

When Akahoshi saw him trying to speak human language, his eyes lit up, and he began to explain with a combination of words and gestures.

"Do you want to ask me why I saved you?" Bai Yu asked in mermaid language.

Akahoshi nodded hurriedly: "Yes, that's exactly what I mean."

Bai Yu tilted her head, the words she wanted to say went through her throat several times, and she finally opened her mouth and uttered a non-standard pronunciation: "You, look, are... cute."

He wanted to say: You look cute, but what you said was incomprehensible.

Bai Yu was somewhat annoyed; he should have learned human language.

Akahoshi understood, and his wife praised him for being cute ^O^.

"You're cute too. By the way, my name is Akahoshi."

Bai Yu looked at the child, opened her mouth, and repeated, "Star..."

Chixing lay down next to him and pointed her little finger at the stars in the sky: "Look, it's the star of that star."

Following his movement, Bai Yu looked up at the sky and said in a deep, magnetic voice, "Star, star."

Akahoshi pointed to himself again: "I am Star."

Bai Yu understood, and he smiled and called out, "Little Star."

Akahoshi's smile was somewhat bitter. He thought to himself, "He's not young at all; he's the oldest."
