Siren - in the eyes of all supernatural creatures on earth and even in human myths and legends, this is an extremely mysterious race. They are elves in the deep water, hermits in the dark abyss, and the most elusive people of water in the ever-changing and turbulent ocean. They themselves are shapeless and unpredictable like water. Sailors in the old days firmly believed that Every wave in the ocean hides the demagogic song of the siren, and the alien gods of the past believed that not even Poseidon could control the hermits of the sea.
These shapeless, faceless water elves are covered with such a mysterious veil-but now Hao Ren can pat his chest and tell the guys who wrote the story that everything is beautiful because of the distance. It's all because they have never been in close contact with these house girls...
The unlucky ones who were imprisoned in the Siren City for more than a hundred years are not counted.
It is true that the water elves are gentle and quiet, but just like the ocean has a thousand faces, so do the sea monsters. They also have their moments of being active and escaping, and this was as early as when Hao Ren saw them in the shape of a shrimp. Should have thought of it. A group of people entered Nasathorn under the leadership of Shakira, and the scenes they saw along the way can be summed up in four words: demons dancing wildly. The sirens happily transformed themselves into everything they could find in the sea, and they seemed interested in trying anything that had been soaked in water. Hao Ren even saw two tires rolling around in front of his eyes. He didn't know which unlucky car accidentally fell into the sea, and the tires were removed by the Krakens as a reference model.
Shaqila pointed to the two tires and explained to Hao Ren: "Only the rear one is a sea monster, and the front one is really a tire."
Hao Ren: "..."
"You guys...have a rich life in your spare time." Lily followed behind with her mouth open. The messy scene in Nasathorn today is really different from what she saw when she came last time. The last time she came here At that time, Siren City was still a crazy city shrouded in eerie and terrifying atmosphere, which made people shudder like an evil god's lair in the deep sea, but at this time... Well, the scene is still quite scary, but the atmosphere is not the same.
"It's not often like this," Shaqila smiled and led the way ahead. The little Doudou followed the mermaid sister's tail vigorously following the rhythm, and the little mermaid thought that she had returned to her hometown. I am happy all the way, "Since the last incident, Nasathorn has spent a long time rebuilding. It is not easy to repair those ancient equipment and heal the psychological trauma of the sisters. Our city was once shrouded in scattered In the shadow of not going. But Hao Ren brought us the news of Io, we know the origin and history of the siren clan, so we don't think we can just sink like this. The queen decided to make some changes."
As Shakira said, she swung her tail lightly to avoid a tuna rushing towards her. The tuna was as long as a person. After rushing past, "it" turned around lightly and turned into a fish with a golden-red tail. The coquettish sea snake girl spat out a string of bubbles apologetically. Hao Ren had a vague impression of this siren. After thinking about it for a while, he remembered that this was one of the guards in the underground passage near the queen's palace, and was thrown out by Yzaks in a snake ball...
Shakira continued: "In fact, we have always sent observers to the surface to understand the changes in the land world. But after the tribe was corrupted by evil spirits a hundred years ago, we no longer paid attention to this knowledge. Therefore, in the function of the city After almost recovering, the queen ordered to sort out all the information we missed in the past 100 years. We even contacted several strange families on land—we sent messengers to them to spread the news of the "Day of Return" So by accident, we have a communication channel with the surface races. Through these efforts, we can keep up with the changes in the world again, and understand how humans have developed this planet into what it is today in just a hundred years.
"What's interesting is that the powerful alien races are still standing still and going downhill in a hundred years, but humans have fought two full world wars in such a short period of time, and sent people on the earth to the moon. The Queen asked We have seen all the modern technology of human beings, especially about aerospace, so our sisters finally know what the phrase 'Nathatron is a spaceship' means.
"We have lived in seclusion in the deep sea for too long, and our world view is a bit problematic. So after knowing the efforts our ancestors made to explore space, we must re-establish our cognition of the 'outside world'. The queen believes that humans on earth are Best teacher ever at this."
Shaqilayou talked all the way, seeing Hao Ren and the others again made the sea monster very happy. And Nangong Wuyue nodded in understanding after listening to it: "So, by the way, you are learning how humans celebrate festivals?"
"Well, one of the reasons," Shakira said while correcting Doudou's tail-flicking posture when swimming, "The main reason is that the pressure accumulated during the rebuilding of the city was too great, and we needed a celebration to relax, so the Queen Decided to celebrate human festivals even in the deep sea... ”
"There's only one question," Vivienne raised her hand, "Do you know what day it is today on land?"
Shaqila's tail froze: "Huh?"
"Halloween has passed two months earlier." Hao Ren looked at the messy Nasathorn with a big head. "How far is your deep-sea calendar different from the surface?"
"Is that so?!" Shakira was surprised, as if realizing this problem for the first time, then she flicked her tail, "Oh, that's okay, anyway, it's the same any time to celebrate, happy That's fine, you can tell the Queen later that we can change this festival to City Reconstruction Day."
Lily was dumbfounded: "... are you usually so casual?"
Shakira immediately looked serious: "It's not casual, it's very serious—the name can only be changed if the Queen speaks."
Lily: "..."
"Okay, I'm not going to pursue your cultural issues anymore," Hao Ren twitched his lips, and then looked curiously at the strange-shaped sea monsters in all directions—the "weird" is really not wrong, "Let's talk about you The way to celebrate the holidays is to turn into all kinds of weird things?"
"We usually like this kind of entertainment the most!" Shakira said happily immediately, "Transform into various fresh and interesting forms, and then let friends guess who is who. The sea with the most successful transformation and the most thorough disguise The demon will win. So after we heard that humans have a Halloween where everyone dresses up in all kinds of weird shapes and runs around, we immediately decided to hold such a festival! In addition to everyone transforming together, the city There are many other activities, and there are many gadgets collected from the shallow water area on Yongquan Long Street for sale, all of which were dropped by humans in the sea! It’s so interesting!”
What else could Hao Ren say? He could only feel that it was an eye-opener. He didn't expect this group of silent deep-water creatures to live in such a lively way, and their entertainment methods and celebrations were indeed rich and colorful. Nangong Sanba said with a smile: "Look at the bitterness and hatred of those alien families on land, and look at these sea monsters...it's really incomparable."
"It's normal." Vivian was not surprised. "They are the only heterogeneous race that has retained a complete social form and can remain unmolested for many years. It is not surprising that such a race has as rich social activities as humans."
While speaking, everyone had already passed through the bustling city streets. Shaqila led Hao Ren and the others to a huge transparent pipe. She opened the small door on one side of the pipe and let everyone swim in: "From here to the palace area It’s still far away, let’s take this ride.”
This kind of pipeline is the most common "bus route" in Siren City. It relies on water flow and pressure to carry out high-speed, comfortable and safe city traffic in the pipeline. It is one of the few ancient technologies that the Kraken race has maintained to this day. one. Hao Ren got into the pipe a few times. When Shaqila entered the destination into the controller next to it, Doudou suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a layer of almost transparent, soft jelly-like substance on the inner wall of the pipe. Immediately, the mermaid swam over excitedly and slammed its body against the jelly-like substance: "Dad, Dad, there's something here!"
At this time, Shaqila finally found the sticky substance on the wall of the pipe, and she poked it twice out of curiosity: "What is this? Someone should clean the station every day... Wow!"
I saw that layer of jelly suddenly twisted, and then pieces of the same translucent jelly fell off from the walls of the pipe in all directions. These strange things gathered together and condensed into a petite mermaid in a blink of an eye: "Wow!"
"You're still 'wow'!" Shakira glared at the young siren with her arms crossed, "You are not allowed to transform and lurk near traffic lines and public machinery facilities, have you forgotten the rules!"
The young sea monster thought for a while, then continued to exclaim: "Wow!"
Hao Ren slapped his forehead with a slap: "I suddenly felt that we came at the wrong time... Nasathorn in this period is simply too unbelievable." (To be continued~^~)
