Blue Star

"Cough cough..."

The seawater pouring in from under the broken boards is constantly overflowing.Gu Li lay prone on the deck, grabbed the floating hand in the water, and pulled Iris out forcefully with the help of buoyancy.

Iris, who had just woken up, was still pale, but the scales that exploded on his skin had all softened, blending perfectly with the original human skin.

"...Gu Li." Iris called hoarsely.

Gu Li raised his hand to wipe off the water stains on Iris' eyes, looked at the scaled fish tail under the water, and said, "Can you still walk with two legs?"

Iris swung the tail of the fish, propped his hands on the deck and moved his body back a bit.The blue glowing powder secreted from the fish's tail became slippery, and the body without friction quickly slid out to the right as the warship swung.His back collided with the cabin wall, completely tearing the shirt that had already been ripped open in two.

The magnetic field collapsed, and the cells in all organisms were metamorphosed, including mermaids naturally.Iris's fish tail can no longer change freely as before, at least for a short time, he can no longer walk upright.

Gu Li staggered to his feet while supporting the deck. He grabbed Iris's arm and simply tore off the layer of underwear on the mermaid's body that affected his movement.

He held Iris's face, and kissed it sideways, "Go out from the hole under the deck, and the sea belongs to you beyond the battleship. Swim farther, the farther the better."

Iris held Gu Li's hand back, and the translucent shirt after being soaked in water reflected the skin under the fabric faintly.

He felt Gu Li's abnormality, but he frowned but didn't say anything.

Under the damaged deck beside the two, the speed of sea water entering became more and more turbulent.Before long, the cabins on the third floor will also be flooded.

With lowered eyebrows, Gu Li took out a damaged pocket watch from his trouser pocket with trembling hands, rolled up the hanging chain and quickly stuffed it into Iris' hands.

"My father left it to me. From now on, it will only be yours."

He got up and pulled open the damaged deck vigorously, his eyes were moist and he said: "Go to the sea and wait for me, and I will come to you after I arrange all the people on board." Afraid that Iris would not leave, he said again: "Trust me , in Bermuda River, I need you to show me the way."

Iris' spiritual talent was exhausted by him, and his physical energy was exhausted to the point of death.He didn't want to use Iris as a crystal mine in desperation after encountering danger again.

In the dim cabin, two shaking oil lamps were broken, and the faint light hit Iris' cheeks, making the water droplets in his eyes look like dazzling pearls.

Iris didn't hesitate, with his strong arms supporting the cabin wall, he moved his body and slid into the overflowing deck hole.Before leaving, he turned his head and glanced at Gu Li, then silently turned over and entered the water, and swam to the sea along the damaged hole of the warship.

Gu Li took a deep breath, stepping on the sea water all over the floor and forcefully kicked open the hatch of the nursery department.The cabin door here was locked from the outside, and the women and children who were supposed to be on the lifeboat first were all locked in the cabin and could not get out.

The door panel was kicked off, and the woman in charge of the child fell out of the cabin crying.

Gu Li quickly caught the person and asked, "Is there a small number? Are they all here?"

The woman was so frightened that she could speak incoherently, she held on to Gu Li's arm tightly and dared not let go.

"The number of lifeboats is not enough, and the people at the top don't want us to be a drag. Patriarch, patriarch, please save us. Even if you want me to die on the boat, please take these children away..."

At the corner stairs, Mimir was thrown down from upstairs.He had many bruises on his body, and a gap was broken on his forehead when he rolled over.

The hatch of the upper cabin was closed, followed by the sound of locking and heavy weights.

"Mimiel!" Gu Li let go of the woman, stepped forward and picked up Mimir who was covered in bruises.

Mimir's right eye was red and swollen. It looked like he had been punched severely by an adult. The corner of the eye was broken, and blood dripped down his cheek.

"The patriarch...these people are crazy, they are less human than monsters!"

Gu Li straightened Mi Mi Mier, grabbed the handrail of the stairs and climbed to the locked cabin door, bumped his elbow a few times but failed to knock the cabin door open.

"What's the situation up there now?"

Mimir cried and shook his head, "It's a mess. They formed gangs and joined forces to rescue the lifeboat. The second floor and the deck were all robbed, and the first people to go into the sea have already rowed far away."

Gu Li jumped down the stairs angrily, and looked out of the warship from the nearest cabin window.It's a pity that the light outside is too dim, and it's hard to see where the people who left the warship have gone. They can only see a few faint spots of light swaying with the waves sporadically.

Half of the children in the nursery department were crying and the other half were quiet. They were all crowded in the sloping corridor, looking helplessly at Gu Li, who was the only one who could save them.

The water level of the seawater pouring into the warship has reached the waist of an adult, and the reefs under the sea can even be seen outside the circular cabin window.

"Patriarch, what should we do now?" Mimir clasped the handrail with both hands, his voice trembling.

Gu Li entered the nursery department, broke off a few mechanical tools from the cabin wall, and threw them to the older children in the cabin.

"Go smash the deck and tie as much driftwood as you can." He threw the biggest wrench to Mimir, "There are instruments where the white wings are installed, and they can be used as tools when the water level is lower. Chisel."

The children who were assigned to work chiseled the boat one after another, but the influx of sea water was obviously faster than the boat chiseled.

"Ah!" The woman holding the baby screamed, "There is something in the sea outside the window, there are monsters!"

Gu Li chipped away a few decks, kicked them off with his knees, and quickly tied them to the two children.Hearing the movement, he looked sideways at the cabin window where the woman was watching, and there was actually a piece of blue light dust secreted by the mermaid on the thick glass.

The hull shook violently, and everyone tilted and slid to the left.The sinking stern seemed to have hit a rock on the bottom of the sea. After being hit, the speed of the sea water backflow became more and more fierce.

There were screams in the cabin, and Gu Li stepped on the cabin door to catch several falling children steadily.

Mimir was dizzy from the shaking of the ship, and after struggling to stand still, he shouted to Gu Li: "It's Iris! Patriarch, the one outside the window is Iris!"

Gu Li gritted his teeth and hugged the child tightly in his hands. When he looked up, his gaze met Iris who was looking at him from the cabin window.

Iris didn't listen to his words and went away, but went to Bermuda River to bring reinforcements.

In the dark and turbulent sea, a few mermaids emitting sporadic blue light surrounded the cabin window. They found reefs from the sea and smashed hard on the third-story cabin wall.

Gu Li panted and shouted: "Everyone hold your breath and hold on to the driftwood. If someone touches it, don't struggle!"

Cracks appeared in the cabin wall, and the strong sea water broke through the cabin wall and poured into the cabin.

Gu Li took a deep breath and held his breath. After being submerged in the sea for a few seconds, he was pulled out of the cabin by Iris.The pinna felt the air, and the breath was no longer sour.

When he opened his eyes again, he had been placed on a piece of driftwood by Iris.

The waves beat against the rocks, and the surrounding sea was full of mournful cries.

Surrounding the sinking warship were a dozen mermaids glowing with blue stars.Unlike the fierce battle last time, these mermaids unexpectedly help humans.

Gu Li put the child in his hand on the driftwood, turned over into the sea and pulled the other struggling children together, trying to prevent them from being washed away by the waves as much as possible.

He wiped the water stains from his face, and looked around by the light of the fire on the boat.

The people on the upper two floors had basically left by boat, but because the situation was so chaotic at that time, there were still many corpses floating with the waves and two overturned lifeboats on the sea.

Gu Li struggled to gather the children holding the driftwood around him, then approached the overturned lifeboat, dived into the water to straighten the boat, and quickly connected the two lifeboats together.

"All get on the lifeboat, don't be washed away!"

Iris swam from the sea to where Gu Li was, and after emerging from the water, he put Mimir, who was almost drowning, into the lifeboat.

He and Gu Li looked at each other, before he could say anything more, he quickly dived into the sea to rescue other drowning people.

Throughout the whole night, only 32 people were finally rescued on board and survived.

The place where the warship sank was on the border of the Bermuda River, no more than a hundred meters away from the survivable reef channel.The fluctuation of the magnetic field caused the earth veins to appear upside down, and the sea water rose accordingly, engulfing the original iconic reef sea area.

What an ironic result, it was not the disaster that brought them almost to extinction, but the hearts of the people.

Gu Li sat at the stern of the lifeboat, looking at Iris who was leading him across the strait under the sea, fascinated.

The weather in Bermuda River is not as bad as the rumors said. In fact, here, both the temperature and the wind and waves are milder than those in the past.

The only thing to be afraid of is these mermaids who are watching them leave and trying to stop Iris.

The Blue Star was destroyed, the Ming Ancient Continent collapsed, and the magnetic field shock wave affected Bermuda River all the way.Most of the mermaids with sensitive senses have already hid in their lairs under the sea, and the only ones that can be seen on the sea are the dozen or so called by Iris.

Mermaids also have a language they can communicate with.Gu Li couldn't understand, he could only judge the content of the conversation from the eyes of the mermaids when they communicated, just like Iris who went ashore for the first time to learn human language.

The mermaids who blocked Iris had solemn expressions, as if they were saying bad taboos to Iris, and their solemn expressions were very similar to those of Daoporin who were afraid that something would happen to him.

Iris held tight the ropes that pulled the two lifeboats. He pushed back the mermaid friend who stopped him, and then swam to Gu Li, floating on the sea and continuing to push the lifeboats forward.

The mermaids who helped rescue people did not follow, they stopped escorting the humans and watched Iris swim farther and farther.

Gu Li bent down, stretched out his hand to hold Iris who was pushing the lifeboat, frowned and said, "What did they tell you?"

Iris looked up and just smiled at his question.Immediately, he clasped his hands to the stern of the boat, floated half of his body out of the water, and kissed his lips lightly.

The taste of the sea water is bitter and salty, just like Gu Li's mood at the moment.

Iris returned to the water, dragged the bottom of the lifeboat to speed up the forward speed.

When swimming, the muscles of the whole body become extremely explosive.The sharp fish tail flicked, and the glowing blue dust formed a winding parade track in the water.In the dark abyss, it looks like the blue star depicted in the story, which represents hope.

Gu Li raised his head and looked at the pitch-black hell wearily.He could no longer see the starry sky formed by crystal mines.

"Look quickly! There is light ahead, such a bright light!" Mimir excitedly stood up from the lifeboat, pointing to a beam of light in the distance with clear eyes.

The pale yellow light is refracted from the ceiling of the cave, and the light beam has a shape after passing through the opening, illuminating the abyss like a clear tulle.

Such light beams became more and more as the lifeboat approached, illuminating part of the sea surface with sparkles.

Gu Li raised his hand to cover his eyes, his skin and eyes felt a slight tingling after being exposed to the sun.This is the first time he has come into contact with real sunlight. It turns out that real sunlight can still make people feel warm even through a huge distance.

It took him five or six minutes to get used to it, and when he looked up again, he could see the illuminated cave roof and the weathered collapsed rock formation above the beam.

Mimier stood on another lifeboat and excitedly said to Gu Li: "Patriarch, have you seen it! It's the exit, and there really is an exit after the Bermuda River! We don't have to die, no one has to die now! "

The sea breeze ruffled his hair, and he almost wept with joy.

The lifeboat touched the end of the mine island. Like the mountain behind the hospital, there was also a thick and roadless wall behind the Bermuda River.It's just that the rock formations here are close to the sea, and many places have been corroded by sea water.

Gu Li took the lead to disembark from the boat, climbed up the weathered stone wall, and found a way out in a cave full of vegetation.

He made a simple treatment of the overgrown vegetation in the cave, and after clearing out a walkable path, he commanded the children on the boat: "Use clothes to cover the skin, we need a period of time to adapt to the real ultraviolet rays. Go slowly, don't worry .”

Ling Han, the leader, wrapped the baby girl in his arms with clothes, and looked back at Iris who was still in the sea before entering the cave.

He lowered his eyebrows, said a word of thanks softly, then turned and walked into the tunnel leading to the real human world.

Gu Li sent all the children away, and then stretched out his hand to Iris lying on the edge of the rock: "Let's leave here together, and I will take you back to a real human life."

Iris looked up at him, but instead of going ashore with him as expected, he swam back for a distance.

Gu Li frowned, looking a little disbelieving.

"Aren't you going to go with me? Even you want to leave me?"

Iris's expression was slightly bitter. Sunshine is fatal to the offspring of Perlman's mutant gene body. He can't leave here. The only thing he can do is to send Gu Li away safely.

Dao Porling told him that since he was an infected person, he and Gu Li were not from the same world.

"Iris, you can't die. If you die, you will forget Gu Li."

Under the sun, Iris's skin was slightly festered. Escorting Gu Li all the way from Bermuda River to here almost exhausted all his energy.

Gu Li's vision became blurred, and he turned his head to the side and couldn't control the tears from welling up in his eyes.

"You are human, you are human just like me. You don't belong here, you shouldn't be here from the beginning!" Gu Li looked at Iris in the sea, changed his usual calmness, and choked up emotionally : "I beg you, please, don't leave me alone. I only have you... only you!"

He once thought that the existence of Iris was just an obedient monster that he could use.Later, he began to be afraid of his insincere words, and he used harsh words to remind himself over and over again that no matter how much Iris understood human nature, he was still a monster to him.

With his cold attitude and harsh tone, he kept hurting Iris who was protecting him.He was afraid that one day Iris would really take him as a spouse, and he was afraid that in the end he would really live with a monster.But it wasn't until now that he realized that the only person he couldn't live without was himself from beginning to end.

"Don't leave me, Iris, don't leave me alone..."

Iris felt depressed, and lowered his head, not daring to look at Gu Li again.He looked at the sea illuminated by the sun, and bid farewell to Gu Li with difficulty.

"Gu Li, you have to live."

Gu Li curled up on the rock and cried in pain, the suppressed emotions finally broke out at this moment, rolling and wreaking havoc.

After a long time, he raised his head with red eyes, and there was no sign of Iris on the sea under the rock.

From the tunnel came Mimir's voice calling him.

He stood up mechanically, looking at the tunnel leading to the human world with dull eyes.

Mimir came out of the tunnel, looked sideways at the sea behind Gu Li, and asked, "Iris, won't you come with us?"

Gu Li didn't answer, but silently pushed aside the bushes and walked into the tunnel.

Mimir didn't continue to ask, and only said: "The world outside the tunnel is very different from the ancient continent we live in. I seem to see the city of dawn, which is a city suspended in mid-air with giant crystal mines."

"Beyond the mine island is the sea, but I have never seen such a beautiful sea. The other side of the sea looks very dangerous. I seem to have seen the mutant bats that attacked our town before. Patriarch, can we really be in this new sea?" Will the world survive?"

Gu Li looked at the light at the end of the tunnel, and suddenly stopped walking.

Mimir walked in a hurry, didn't keep up with the pace, and bumped into Gu Li's back.

"Patriarch?"

Gu Li lowered his head and chuckled. After a long time, he said: "Mimier, my mission has been completed, and the rest of the road has to be left on your own."

He raised his hand and rubbed the top of Mimir's hair, "Help me take care of those children, you will live well."

Mimir's eyes were moist, he grabbed Gu Li's hand tightly, and cried, "No, it's not possible. Patriarch... can't do it without you, we... really, can't..."

Gu Li's dim eyes slowly became brighter, recalling the hard road along the way.

Elder, Zack, Elder Qin, Dao Porling, Gu Yu, Osid, and those warriors who dared to die.One generation guards one generation, he thought, after all, he has lived up to the sacrifices of these people.

He pushed Mimir towards the glowing hole, "I am no longer your patriarch. Mimir, live well, your life has just begun."

He took off the gloves he had been wearing all the time, and the wrists under the shirt were covered with soft fish scales, which was a sign of infection and the beginning of no longer being human.

He threw away the leather gloves in his hand, turned around and walked back to the tunnel.

His steps changed from steady to messy, and he sprinted towards the sea inhabited by mermaids.Finally, he can also love another person with all his emotions like an ordinary person.

"Iris—"

Standing on the parting rock, he called out to the sea dimmed by the beams of light.

The water surface fluctuated, the blue light twisted, and Iris emerged from the water in surprise.

"Gu Li..."

Gu Li smiled nicely, "You really didn't leave."

He took a few steps back, then lunged and jumped into the sea.

"Gu Li!"

Iris swung the tail of the fish and reached out in panic to catch Gu Li who jumped towards him.

Gu Li tightly hugged this mermaid that only belonged to him, and his eyes reflected Iris who was full of him.

He said: "Although I was born in the abyss, I was lucky enough to meet Blue Star."

Yu Ling:

Easter eggs:

Mimir wiped away tears and led the remaining 31 people to escape from the abyss where they had been imprisoned for more than 200 years.He looked at the City of Dawn that was suspended above the town with hatred, and vowed to completely destroy this fortress that strangled the ancient continent.
