Then Gu Ran counted his breaths more than a thousand times before he began to swim upwards.
"Go west."
When Gu Ran surfaced, he heard the words of the little conch grandmother again.
"Can this thing be located? Wasn't the little snail located in the first place? Was it too far away, or even if the mermaids were located, they couldn't save the little snail."
Gu Ran carefully stroked the pink conch necklace around his neck and felt that it was not simple.
Afterwards, the little conch grandmother used the conch necklace to make Gu Ran change direction several times along the way, and finally told him that he could return to the mermaid tribe by swimming continuously.
From a distance, Gu Ran saw Alice waiting for him.
"Gu Ran!"
Alice waved to him happily, her golden hair gleaming in the sunlight, and swam towards him.
"The elder grandmother has been waiting for you. I will take you to see her."
Gu Ran nodded: "That's right, I also have something to ask her."
Along the way, Alice secretly looked at Gu Ran, wanting to say something, she bit her lip, her delicate white cheeks flushed, but in the end she said nothing.
Gu Ran noticed her abnormality, but at that moment his mind was completely focused on the little conch, so he didn't want to ask.
Not long after, Gu Ran met the little conch grandmother.
"Is the person in the underwater ruins really little Eudora? Why are you so sure?" Gu Ran asked directly when he saw the little conch grandmother.
The little conch grandmother signaled Alice with her eyes, and after she left, she slowly said: "That is indeed Eudora, because only Eudora can enter the underwater ruins to receive inheritance. Other creatures, whether they are mermaids or not, cannot receive inheritance even if they get the key to open the ruins."
Only Eudora can accept the inheritance
Gu Ran captured the key information in an instant.
That underwater ruin is indeed closely related to the mermaids. It is not just as simple as being occupied by the mermaids. Moreover, the importance of the little snail to the mermaids is not just her identity as the daughter of the tribe leader and the mermaid princess. To the mermaids, the little snail may be more important than her mother, the tribe leader.
So this is why the little conch has this conch necklace? It can locate her and find her at any time, and it can also activate the teleportation skill to escape most dangers.
But if that's the case, then the only thing in the ruins could be a small conch.
Thinking of this, Gu Ran felt a little relieved.
I hope the little snail is okay.
"Then do we not need to worry about it now? Can those sea beasts and ferocious beasts really not destroy the underwater ruins? Even if they can't, won't Eudora inside be affected?" Gu Ran continued to ask. This was another aspect that he was concerned about.
Grandmother Conch shook her head and said, "No, the power of that relic is far beyond your imagination. Its history is so long that even we mermaids cannot tell how many years it has existed. But after so many years, it has been able to maintain its operation. No matter whether it is a natural disaster or an attack from any creature, it cannot be damaged in the slightest, so don't worry about it.
"As for the inside, it is said to be like another small world. Once you enter, you will not be affected by the outside world. So our mermaid tribe also used it as a shelter."
Gu Ran: "Your mermaids have also used it as a shelter? In other words, in addition to the inheritors, other creatures can also enter? Then why don't you mermaids use this ruins as a shelter now? Is it because of the lack of inheritors that your mermaids are unable to control the ruins now?"
Grandmother Little Conch nodded and said, "Now that things have come to this, there is no need to hide it from you. The mermaids did have a successor of the ruins. That was the most glorious moment for the mermaids. Even if they encountered a natural disaster that ordinary forces could not resist, the mermaids could all enter the ruins for refuge.
"However, not all mermaids can accept inheritance at any time. Only mermaids recognized by the ruins can enter the ruins with the key in the year they officially become adults and begin to accept inheritance. Eudora is a mermaid recognized by the ruins, and just a few days ago, she reached adulthood."
Gu Ran suddenly thought of the kiss from the little conch.
I didn't expect that she looked about the same age as me, but she was already an adult.
Grandmother Conch continued, “Although Eudora has reached the most suitable time to receive the inheritance, the area around the ruins has been occupied by those ferocious beasts, and the mermaids cannot leave the ruins too far. It is the most critical moment, so I thought of asking Eudora to ask you if you can help the mermaids take back the ruins so that Eudora can enter the ruins to receive the inheritance.
"In fact, I was a little anxious because I had no idea of your actual strength. I was just hoping for the best. But I didn't expect that after meeting you, Eudora would actually take the risk and sneak into the ruins to receive the inheritance. Fortunately, she succeeded in the end. If anything happened to Eudora, it would have been a disaster for the mermaids."
Gu Ran suddenly realized that he finally understood what was wrong with the little conch that day.
It turned out that Little Snail came to ask him with a guilty conscience. She felt that she was using him, and after learning that his strength was not enough to recapture the ruins immediately and safely, she decided to sneak in secretly.
Gu Ran suddenly asked, "Is Eudora the only mermaid who can receive the heritage?"
Grandmother Little Conch said affirmatively: "That's right, only Eudora is recognized by the ruins. Apart from her, no other mermaid can accept the inheritance of the ruins!"
... ...
Outside the light screen.
boom!
The words of the little conch grandmother were like a thunder exploding in Ariel's ears.
"That's right. Eudora is the only one who has been recognized by the ruins. Apart from her, no other mermaid can accept the heritage of the ruins."
Apart from this, no other mermaid can inherit the relics... ... No other mermaid can inherit the relics... ...
Then what is she, Ariel
Since Eudora is the only mermaid who can receive the ruins' inheritance from the beginning to the end, it is impossible for her to appear!
"No! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Ariel couldn't help but murmur, "There must be something wrong. It's impossible that only the pink mermaid can receive the inheritance of the ruins!"
The other powerful humans were also surprised and couldn't help but talk about it.
"That's impossible. In fact, wasn't it the current Queen of the Sea who received the inheritance? It wasn't the pink mermaid at all."
"What's going on? Is the old mermaid lying? Or did something unexpected happen?"
"That's possible. After all, the old mermaid herself said that although this ruins was occupied by the mermaids, it has a very long history. There may be some secrets that even the mermaids themselves don't know. It's understandable if she's wrong."
"That's true. Besides, we can't guarantee that she's lying. Although Gu Ran has helped them so much, it's possible that the old mermaid is very cunning and doesn't want to reveal the secrets of the mermaid tribe."
Lin Fan also felt something was wrong at first, but after hearing what others said, he calmed down and thought that it was impossible for Gu Ran to clear his name twice.
I must have been affected by what happened to Gu Qingqing before and was worrying too much.
... ...
In the light screen.
After Gu Ran asked this question, he kept staring at Little Conch's grandmother's expression. If she showed any signs of lying, he would definitely be able to detect it.
But in the end, Gu Ran felt that she did not lie.
In fact, Gu Ran asked this question at the end, which was a bit of a surprise attack, in order to finally confirm whether the things in the ruins were really small conchs.
"How long will it take for Eudora to come out?" Gu Ran asked finally.
Grandmother Xiao Hailuo: "I can't be sure about this. There are tests when accepting the inheritance. If everything goes well, then you can come out earlier. If there are accidents, then you can come out later. I don't know the exact time."
If you don’t know the exact “exit time”, you can only wait.
During this time, Gu Ran discovered that Alice seemed to be looking at him all the time, and when he looked over, she quickly looked away.
Time went on until the sixth day.
"Gu Ran, a big change has occurred in the ruins. The situation is not good." Little Conch Grandmother said solemnly, "It seems that something unexpected has occurred inside the ruins. We must remedy it, otherwise Eudora may fail..."
"What if she fails?" Gu Ran's heart tightened.
"The result is death."
The underwater ruins were still emitting light, but it was no longer as dazzling as before. Moreover, huge tremors came from there, forming waves.
Gu Ran looked at the little conch grandmother beside him, with a questioning look in his eyes - what should we do now
Grandmother Little Conch turned around: "Follow me."
92. The truth! The beginning of the feud!? 4k
Along the way, Little Conch's grandmother's expression was very solemn.
Around noon, the little conch grandmother stopped.
She turned around and glanced at Gu Ran: "Next we have to move on."
Gu Ran nodded.
I continued to dive, not knowing how deep I was, but gradually a pitch-black building appeared on the seabed.
Another underwater ruin
"Where is this place?" Gu Ran looked at the little conch grandmother inquiringly.
The little conch grandmother took out a bead, which emitted a soft light, illuminating a few meters around it.
"This is another underwater relic. It contains tools to help Eudora." The little conch grandmother took the beads and sank into the darkness. "Let's go in."
Gu Ran was a little confused, but he didn't have time to ask more questions. Seeing that Little Conch Grandma had already gone in, he had no choice but to follow her in.
The entire ruins seemed like a dark mass of thick ink. It was pitch black inside and even with Gu Ran's eyesight he couldn't see far.
If it weren't for the glowing pearl of the little conch grandmother that brought a light source that was enough to dispel the darkness, he would probably have found it difficult to tell the direction now.
But it wasn't all water. Gu Ran moved his throat and found that he could speak.
"How can we help Eudora?" After walking for a while, Gu Ran suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.
"It's simple. You just die."
The little conch grandmother who was originally moving forward suddenly turned around. The white light reflected on her old face, making her look very gloomy.
trap?!
Why?!
Gu Ran was shocked and immediately wanted to capture the little conch grandmother.
