Half an hour before Shanon received the Sound Rock in prison, in Papa's alchemy room, Niss was swinging the glass reagent bottle in her bubble ball, and kept asking Papa if he was safe with her eyes. In Papa's alchemy room
Encouraged, she dubiously took a sip of the reagent in the bottle, and then the bubbles rolled in the sea water. Nisi pinched her neck and retched, and her face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. Norman looked at the floating water beside him with slight worry.
Papa, if the woman in front of him, Nice, hadn't drank Papa's potion on his behalf, then he would have been the one who suffered so much.
Nice's name was mentioned by Papa, and Norman secretly wrote it down. For some reason, Nice always glanced at him with a thoughtful expression, which made Norman think of women.
He became more and more curious about his identity. Seeing Nisi kneeling in the bubble ball and constantly vomiting out the water in her stomach, Norman worriedly asked Papa for help: "Mr. Squid, is something wrong with the current situation? This lady...
."
Papa calmly rolled up the seaweed on the table and stuffed it under his soft head: "Don't worry, humans, alchemists will not harm their friends. My potion is extremely effective. By the way, humans, you
The prison that Nisi is about to go to is in the trench below the mermaid's residential area. You must remember, never, remember, never, to go deeper into the trench."
Norman was at a curious age and needed to divert his attention from Nice, so he simply swam to Papa in the bubble ball and asked: "Why, Papa? What's in the trench?"
Papa scratched his head with his tentacles, waiting for Nisi to turn into liquid. It would take some time to transform. It was idle, so it simply told Norman some secret history of the ocean: "I have lived for more than a hundred years.
It seems to you that we are not young, but in fact we squid mermaids can live much longer. It is recorded in the stone books. In the old calendar, we squid mermaids and more than a dozen other species can no longer be seen in shallow seas.
Mermaids are the rulers of the South China Sea. The tilapia mermaid, which has two fins as thick as the arms of an orc but has no eyes, can reach a size of up to 100 meters. The king mermaid has two legs and tentacles covering its face, and has hidden wings that can be expanded.
, flying fish and mermaids as slender as sharp blades, etc... These are the overlords of the South China Sea that have been recorded in the old calendar. They even participated in the great battle between various races and the old gods at the transition of the new calendar and the old calendar. However, after that, most of them
Ancient mermaids no longer appear in shallow sea areas. No one knows why they, as victors, no longer appear in the world... Even I have never seen other people of the same race since I can remember...
Human, the reason why I told you not to go to the trench is entirely because many Imperial Guard fish have disappeared deeper in our prison... Rumor has it that there lives an ancient creature that has been alive since the old calendar, a king.
Mermaid."
Norman swallowed his saliva. A giant mermaid that could reach a hundred meters in size? He had never seen such a huge creature. He only heard from Godfather Guy that the old god Isis that his father drove away had a size that reached the sky, but
That experience was nothing more than a legend in Norman's eyes. Papa was about to say something, but Nisi's scream interrupted him. At this time, he looked at Nisi's bubble ball. Nisi, who was originally about 1.5 meters tall, had already
It disappeared, leaving only the empty bubble balls and the roar that kept echoing in the room. Norman tried to spot Nisi around him, but he couldn't do it with his naked eyes. According to Papa, Nisi was really different from the surroundings.
The sea water melted into one. Papa picked up another bottle of glass reagent wrapped in a bubble ball from the table and threw it to Norman: "Human, this contains the coagulant that can turn Nisi back into a human form. Take good care of it. When Nisi
Pour this on her when she shows signs of changing back."
After a full ten minutes passed, Nice's weak voice came out from the sound-producing rock placed under Norman's feet: "Let's go, kid, if you don't repay me in the future, don't think I will let you go."
...
The hammerhead shark guard at the door was knocked unconscious by Nisi. Papa simply dragged it into the room to avoid being seen by other guards patrolling the palace. After the wizard attacked the mermaid indiscriminately, Nanstra
The city entered a state of alert, and the number of guards patrolling the palace increased a lot, but at the same time, the number of mermaids guarding the prison decreased.
After Nisi turned into a liquid, she could hold up small objects in the sea, and the overall color was close to gray-pink, making it easier to identify. So she asked Norman to break a small piece of sound transmission rock for her, and under Papa's guidance
Dive into the trench and ask Norman to stay behind the rock a little further away. He took the sounding rock to the prison. After bypassing the lantern mermaid guarding the door, Niss approached Shannon and was able to communicate with Norman.
The sound transmission rock for Man's dialogue was stuffed into the bubble ball. Then the scene just happened.
"Norman? Is that your voice? Where are you?" Shannon cried with joy. He and Norman, who had been abandoned since childhood, were the happiest days on the ship since he was born. It could even dispel the haze on the Black Crow.
.Whether he was bullied, beaten, or used as a tool, as long as he cursed Cavendi with Norman in the cabin, the depression in his heart would be over. Being locked up in a dark cave was no longer enough.
She couldn't remember how long it had been, but Shanon nervously held the sounding rock and said, "Norman, Norman! Have you informed Cavendi and the others?"
"No, Shannon, my friend and I are here to rescue you..." Norman paused, and then said: "She is liquid now and can hold small objects. Do you know where the key to your shackles is?"
"
Shanon lowered his head and fumbled with the iron chain binding his legs. In the darkness, he couldn't see his surroundings clearly, let alone a small key. When he was about to tell Norman this, Ni, who had been floating around,
Si opened her mouth. She first said to Norman on the other side of the sound rock: "Kid, did you put the coagulant on me in the small glass bottle I gave you as I told you?" After getting Norman's
After answering in the affirmative, Nisi came up with a plan. She floated to the front of the bubble ball and faced the dejected Shanon and said, "Put your feet outside the bubble ball."
Shanon listened suspiciously to the woman's voice coming from in front of her eyes, but she didn't know where she was. She thought it was too dark to see clearly. At this time, Nisi covered a layer of mud from the bottom of the cave, and then placed it in Shanon.
She stretched her legs and shackles out of the bubble ball and then drilled into the keyhole. After becoming liquid, her form will change according to the mold. Then a glass bottle the size of a fingernail appeared in the center of her flowing body. This is what Nice is doing.
She asked Norman to do it on the way to prison. She had a little knowledge of alchemy and agreed to deal with Norman together. One of the reasons was that she wanted to know the potion used by Papa. For this reason, she asked Norman to keep some.
She planned to take the sample away, but it was just in time to use it. Shanon only felt that the area around her feet was being squeezed by heavy objects. At the same time, the blood was concentrated in the direction of her feet, and she also felt out of breath in her chest.
Shanon breathed heavily: "Ma'am! You're not feeling better yet? I feel like I can't breathe!"
There was no response, only the sound of his own breathing. Shanon panicked. He struggled to take his feet back, but his legs seemed to have lost consciousness and refused to obey his orders. Blood slowly flowed from his nostrils, and his body size even expanded.
At some point, Shannon shouted to the Sounding Rock: "Norman! Norman! Oh no! Your friend is gone!"
The sound rock did not reply. Shanon lay flat in the bubble ball, breathing more and more rapidly. His muscles were abnormally bulging, and it seemed that he would explode and die in the next second. His vision became blurred, and the blood vessels in his nasal cavity ruptured. Soon Shanon died.
His face became covered in blood, and all he could notice was the occasional rustling sound coming from the Sounding Rock and a flickering braid.
"Okay... open it, let me in the bubble ball! I don't want to be killed by the pressure. Hey, Kid No. 2! Are you still alive?"
...
Boom, two hundred meters away from the South Stella Trench Prison, Norman's hideout.
Norman hid behind the rocks in the trench, not daring to make any move. His clothes were wet with cold sweat. Norman could feel that behind him, in the dark trench, there was a creature, or a huge creature, that had awakened and was moving.
Swimming in the deep sea, even Norman's bubble ball is affected by its movements. The surface is somewhat transparent and is likely to burst. If the bubble ball disappears at this moment, then he will drown in the deep sea...Norman
I can clearly hear my own heartbeat, thump thump, thump thump.
Don't look at it, you'll die if you look at it. Don't get close, you'll die if you get close.
This was Norman's most intuitive feeling. Reminiscent of the reminder that Papa gave him in the alchemy room, Norman guessed that this was the ancient sea creature, the King Mermaid.
A voice suddenly came into my mind, just like the sensory abilities used by Papa and Capone. However, my nerves did not translate what the voice said into the common language of humans in the Southern Continent. It still screamed indistinctly. As soon as the voice came out,
Norman's eardrums ruptured, and the buzzing echoed in his mind. At this moment, another voice appeared in Norman's mind.
To invade... the body, to invade the body...
The first lesson at Kaznoman Academy, and the first lesson that all wizards who enter the academy have to learn, is how to face the voice of Kama that appears in their minds. The era of Kama’s appearance can now be found in any book on all continents.
None of them can be found. Only several burned books of wizards mentioned this race composed of elemental bodies. Kama is the biggest threat to wizards. They lurk in the minds of wizards or in the elements in their bodies. As long as the will of the wizard changes,
If it is weak, it will take advantage of it and affect the wizard's nerves, causing the wizard's elemental power to no longer be controlled and enter a state of control. In severe cases, it will even collapse.
Norman has never been affected by Kama since he was born. This is due to his weak elemental power. Unlike Arthur who relied on the Hebrew ring to fight Kama when he was young, the elemental content in Norman's body does not reach the level at all.
The content that an awakened wizard should have. But now, in the deep sea trench of South Stella City, Norman held his breath, squatting and crying while holding his split head and ruptured eardrums.
In the shadow of the trench, there is a huge hunched-backed mermaid, with ten-meter-long tentacles all over its face, its upper body covered with scales with seaweed and conches, and its lower body a ball of gray flesh. This is the King Mermaid, it
He raised his head and let out a silent shout. The shout even affected the elements in Norman's body. This was the force of ancient creatures.
