Godslayer: My Girlfriend Red Tassel

The syllables uttered from the fishtail's mouth were difficult and distorted, and Su Yan couldn't understand a single word.

The language was extremely strange, its pronunciation completely defied common sense, and its intonation had a kind of inhuman rhythm, making it sound like it didn't belong to this world at all.

Logically, with his current strength at the "Klein" level, even without a language barrier, he should be able to perceive the other party's general intentions through his mental power. This was an ability that he would naturally acquire after entering the "Klein" level, but at this moment, he was completely unable to glean any useful information from those distorted syllables.

Fortunately, Yuwei's emotions gradually calmed down.

It could also be a compromise. It seems that the Prayer Square is not simple either. Something is very wrong with this country... Su Yan examined the fish tail, a sense of anxiety rising in his heart.

Although it was impossible to accurately sense the fishtail's strength, the aura it had just exuded in its anger had briefly revealed its true extent.

—Actually, it's not that powerful; at best, it's only at the level of "Klein".

With Su Yan's current strength, killing such a character wouldn't be too difficult, but what would happen after he killed him?

He looked out the window.

The sun was still shining brightly, and the mermaids swam happily, as if the scene of them bulging their bellies and dazedly crowding around them was just an illusion.

"Damn Number 22, if you hadn't just said you were captured and forced into slavery, why did you have to create this wonderful illusion about mermaids? If we had known it was this dangerous, we could have made some preparations... What kind of mess is this now!"

Su Yan cursed inwardly, thinking that if he saw Number 22 again, he would chain him up and flick his sea cucumber a hundred times every day!

"Ugh."

The fishtail had returned to normal, and it reached out to ruffle Shen Qingzhu's head, sighing:

"I really can't bear to part with it... but Dad has no choice."

Shen Qingzhu suppressed her heart palpitations, looked down at the overturned plate of food on the ground, and her eyelids twitched violently twice.

The food still emitted an irresistible aroma, but in the black paste that had been spilled all over the ground, he could clearly see thin, bluish threads, like human blood vessels, emerging and wriggling gently, both eerie and disgusting.

As if sensing Shen Qingzhu's gaze,

Suddenly, the tips of those blood vessels burst open with a "pop," revealing tiny eyes with pupils shrunken into lizard-like vertical lines, staring intently at him without blinking.

"vomit--"

Shen Qingzhu almost vomited.

If Su Yan hadn't refused first, he probably would have already put it in his mouth... I can't even imagine what would have happened if such a disgusting thing had gone into his stomach!

“Go ahead. If you’re not happy over there, come back to your old man. If you come back voluntarily, they can’t stop you. We may not have much else, but we’ll provide plenty of food.”

Fishtail was sad for a long time, but finally let go of Pan Zha Ge's head. He turned around, his back looking lonely, like an old father who had to send his child away.

Shen Qingzhu turned to leave, but then caught a glimpse of Su Yan winking at him.

Having fought side by side for so long, he understood Su Yan's meaning in a moment of hesitation. Since his cheap father didn't intend to take action, now was the safest time and the perfect opportunity to gather intelligence!

Shen Qingzhu hesitated for a moment, then turned back:

"Um... Dad, there's something I'd like to ask you."

"You've changed your mind? You're willing to stay?!" Fishtail suddenly turned around, her face bursting with the fervor of someone who had lost something and then regained it.

"No, no, it's something else," Shen Qingzhu quickly waved her hand.

"Oh, I see." Fishtail's mood plummeted again. He listlessly found a stool and sat down. "Ask away. I'll tell you as much as I know. Remember, home is always the warmest place."

"I don't believe you at all, you old rascal..." Shen Qingzhu forced a smile:

"Father, to be honest, I came to Atlantis with a group of friends, but unfortunately we got separated along the way. I don't know how to find them. Do you have any ideas?"

His thick, fleshy gills trembled slightly. He didn't beat around the bush and answered directly:

"If they enter the city without a token, they will be identified as 'Lost Wanderers,' and then they will no longer be under Father's jurisdiction. If they encounter the guards, they will be taken to the 'Eye of the Abyss' arena to participate in the battle for a spot. Only by becoming the victor of the 'Eye of the Abyss' can they leave there and enjoy their freedom."

A gladiatorial arena?!

Both of them tensed up at the same time; just from the name, they knew it was no place to be trifled with!

Seeing Shen Qingzhu's nervousness, Yuwei forced a reassuring smile and spoke gently:

"Don't worry, every citizen is a treasure of Atlantis. The Eye of the Abyss does not kill outsiders, but only engages in friendly battles and sparring. Winning not only grants you status, but becoming the champion also brings numerous treasure rewards."

"Many outsiders, even after obtaining an identity, spend years in the Eye of the Abyss, just to earn more rewards. I haven't been there in a long time, but I heard there's a woman who's won eleven games in a row and is raking in prizes. She's quite something."

Upon hearing that it wasn't a life-or-death struggle, Su Yan and Shen Qingzhu's expressions softened considerably.

Since Qiye and the others did not carry any tokens, unless they manage to sneak into the city, they will inevitably encounter guards if they openly appear, and then be taken to the Eye of the Abyss.

It seems I need to find a way to make a trip to the Eye of the Abyss.

"You should set off now. The journey from here to the Prayer Square is long and will take three whole days on foot. Take these two blue shells and take your friends to ride the whale in the Holy City. That enormous beast can take you there in half a day."

Shen Qingzhu accepted the two blue-glowing seashells from the fish tail, gave a perfunctory thank you, and hurriedly walked out. The two of them walked quickly, not daring to look back.

"Remember, if things don't go well there, just come home. There's plenty of food at home~~"

Fishtail waved goodbye and watched the two disappear into the distance until their figures shrank into black dots, then sighed softly, unable to hide her disappointment.

Just then, the alluring mermaid from behind the bar swam over:

"Princess Mermaid, everyone outside is asking if we're open today. If we say no, they'll go to another place."

"What? You dare to eat at someone else's house?" Upon hearing this, Fishtail slammed her hand on the table and jumped up. "I want to see who dares to steal my Fishtail Princess's guests!"

After causing a ruckus for a while, he calmly returned to the stage, picked up his ukulele and strummed the strings, while the charming mermaid joined in with her harp.

Soon, customers flooded back into the store.

They danced wildly, devouring plate after plate of burnt food, their eyes burning with intense satisfaction.
