-674- The Origin Of Mermaid
"Do you really want to know something like this?"
The old female fish looked at Su Zhe and did not answer immediately.
Su Zhe nodded immediately.
"certainly.
The demon-like mermaids outside completely shattered my fantasy.
The mermaid I imagined looked similar to you.
It's a pity that you are too old and have no eyes.
If you were young, you might even be a mermaid. "
When he heard the word "mermaid", the old mermaid suddenly trembled.
Then, she covered her face.
“Mermaid… such an old word.
This is the first time you have spoken this word in thousands of years. "
The old mermaid slowly lowered his head.
"You brought back memories, kid."
Then, she continued.
"I want to ask you, do you know the entire past of Atlantis?"
“Just knowing a few things doesn’t mean you know everything.”
Su Zhe shook his head, "After all, it was a prehistoric civilization that has disappeared for thousands of years, and there are no records in the existing ancient books.
All I know is that Atlantis was an extremely developed civilization with cutting-edge technology, and then it was buried in the deep sea for unknown reasons. "
“Actually, the splendor of Atlantis is all superficial.
Behind the scenes, there are a group of beasts carrying out evil deeds. "
The old mermaid fell into deep memories.
"Do you know what a fishwife is?"
"Of course I don't know."
“A fish woman is a woman who gives birth to fish!
The high priest of Atlantis, his worship of the sea reached the peak of fanaticism.
Because humans are not suitable for long-term survival underwater, he came up with a crazy idea.
He wants to create a "mermaid"!
To create a mermaid is to use evil secrets to make a woman pregnant with a fish child.
This is how I was created..."
The old mermaid's voice became a little shaky.
"No way, isn't there reproductive isolation?"
Su Zhe was stunned for a while.
“The secret technique of the high priest has long been lost, but that evil secret technique can indeed forcibly create a mermaid.
The entire Atlantis was completely destroyed because of this incident! "
The old mermaid sighed.
“Although monsters like mermaids can be forcibly created, most of the effects are quite inferior.
That is, those red-eyed mermaids wandering outside.
Their faces also became fish-like, extremely ugly, like demons.
But upon seeing this, the high priest not only did not stop, but continued his crazy experiment.
With the accumulation of countless resources, he successfully gave birth to me...I am his most proud work.
My name is Elodia, the first and last generation of mermaids. "
"Elodia, where is the high priest you mentioned? Is he still alive?
Also, how did Atlantis fall into the deep sea? "
Elodia shook her head.
"The high priest has died a long time ago. He followed the destruction of Atlantis and went to destruction.
It was a prehistoric flood that swallowed Atlantis.
The man-god at that time saw all kinds of evil on the earth, so He created an extremely ferocious flood to reshuffle the whole world. "
"So there was a man named Noah who built Noah's Ark?"
Su Zhe guessed.
"I don't know that."
Elodia shook her head, "I only know that Atlantis was destroyed and countless people died because of the flood."
"Hmm... So in Atlantis, all humans died because of the flood.
Only the mermaid survived because she had the underwater breathing ability of a fish. "
"You're absolutely right.
I have to say that your reasoning ability is very strong. "
Elodia couldn't help but praise.
On the old face, there was also a smile that spanned endless years.
"Okay, I almost understand the ins and outs.
You should tell me the mission now, right?
After completing the task, I am still waiting to return to reality. "
“Find my eyes and give them to me.
I will free you from the illusion and obtain the "key" to enter the inner circle. "
Elodia said softly, "I once led all the merfolk to fight against the high priest.
It was a huge battle, and countless deformed mermaids followed me and invaded the inner ring of Atlantis.
It's a pity that it failed in the end...
My eyes were also dug out by the high priest, and I have completely lost my sight since then. "
"I see."
Su Zhe was willing to help her complete this task, not only to go to the inner ring and get the Chaos Divine Stone.
In addition, he also wants to satisfy this ill-fated "mermaid", Elodia.
“You can now head to the Inner Circle to find my eyes.
But this is in an illusion, and it is not the real inner ring.
Whatever you gain there, you can't take it away. "
"good."
Immediately afterwards, Su Zhe suddenly discovered something.
His detection technique can actually be used in illusions!
think carefully.
Perhaps it's because there is no Chaos Divine Stone in the illusion.
He also has the opportunity to use the exploration technique.
Great!
It will be much easier to find two eyeballs this way.
Otherwise, finding two eyeballs on the bottom of the sea with just your eyes is no less than finding a needle in a haystack.
Su Zhe stopped where he was and began to use probing techniques to scan his surroundings.
A three-dimensional image quickly appeared in his mind.
Elodia couldn't help but be a little confused when she saw Su Zhe staying in the same place.
But just when she was about to speak and ask what was going on.
Su Zhe suddenly moved.
His figure was very fast, and he flew across several kilometers in an instant.
"Is it really possible for this kid to find my eyes?"
Elodia couldn't help but mutter to herself.
Su Zhe's probing skills quickly yielded results.
Under the Poseidon Temple in the center, there is a secret door.
Under that secret door, there is a skeleton...
On a shelf next to the skeleton, two eyes were soaked in glass bottles, shining dimly.
As expected of a mermaid, her eyes are still shining even after thousands of years.
Within three minutes, Su Zhe stood in front of the shelf.
He took the two bottles directly from the shelf.
The mission was successfully completed, and Su Zhe quickly turned back to find Elodia.
It only took him three minutes to complete the task.
He is truly a man like the wind.
"Here, I got your eyes.
You can put it on and regain your brightness. "
"...Do you know the position of your eyeballs in advance?"
Elodia said in disbelief.
"It's just luck."
Su Zhe smiled and said, "Okay, it's time for you to give me the key to the inner ring.
You have to keep your word. "
"No hurry, let me install the eyes first."
Elodia took out her eyes with some excitement, and then placed them in the empty sockets.
Warm light flickered in the eye sockets, and the eyes were placed tightly.
What surprised Su Zhe.
After those eyes returned to their original positions, the skin all over Elodia's body began to grow in reverse and became smooth in a miraculous manner!
