Xia De walked into the water slowly, but frowned and looked at his arm again.

Although I have experienced swimming in the sea many times, but this time I entered the water, I obviously feel that my affinity for water has improved. The so-called affinity does not mean that the ocean can be manipulated, but that the ocean welcomes Xia De's return. The skin is contaminated with sea water, and it even feels smoother than being contaminated with air on land.

This is definitely not because the sea water turned red, after all, Xia De has nothing to do with that [Scarlet Spiral Lord]. So, probably the lump of meat he ate just now enhanced his affinity for water.

"What level of relic are you?"

He asked in a low voice.

Only then did he plunge into the water, and as a small string of bubbles emerged from the bottom of the water, Xia De's figure rushed forward like a fish swimming at the bottom. Originally he could only swim a little bit, but now he felt like he really became a fish underwater.

After leaving the small pier under the sea cliff, Xia De checked his direction from under the water and found that he was not far from the beach. The turbulent tide and rain forced him to return below the water surface as soon as possible, and it was ten minutes later when Xia De staggered out of the red sea water.

He stood up panting and turned to look at the sea behind him.

Under the dim yellow sky, huge red waves are constantly slapping towards the direction of Lengshui Harbor Wharf. The weird composition makes people instinctively feel uneasy. And on the beach that has been submerged in the distance, there are several small black spots above the water.

Xia De was puzzled for a moment, then suddenly his eyes widened.

Those black dots are human heads, they are walking towards the depths of the ocean, and currently there are only human heads above the shoulders that have not been submerged in the sea. And just when Xia De wanted to go into the water again and tried to pull them up, another person walked by him.

It was a middle-aged man in checkered pajamas and a nightcap who staggered as he walked. After being pushed by Shade, he immediately fell to the ground, then got up on his own, and kept walking forward in the rain.

It's just because Xia De is still pulling him, so he just stands still.

The man's eyes are open, but there is no look in the eyes. In addition, on the right half of his face, there is actually a tattoo of a blood-red fish face, a human body and a fish tail. After the tattoo was exposed to rain, it swelled up like a scar, and trembled with the frequency of the heart.

"Sir, can you hear me?"

Xia De wants to try to see if he can wake up this person. But at this time, it was discovered that more and more people were appearing on this vast beach, shaking with the same frequency and walking towards the ocean together.

Under the dim yellow sky, in the red sea, everyone's eyes were dull, with tattoos on their side faces. The legs were stained with sea water, and then the water level was getting higher and higher. Thus they went into the depths of the ocean until Shad could see no more.

Turning around and looking in the direction of the city, more people appeared on the far side of the beach. Together with those who had stepped into the red sea, they formed a strange and frightening scene with strange colors under the dim sky of Lengshui Harbor.

They will send their bodies and souls back to the ocean, and let the giant mermaid corpses brought by the ceremony eventually engulf the city with the waves.

"Why are there so many people infected with the mermaid curse? Isn't the number of infected people only in double digits?"

Thinking in his heart, Xia De slammed the man in front of him on the back of the head, and then successfully knocked him unconscious...Xia De hoped that he was knocked unconscious, after all, he had never learned the technique of knocking people unconscious. Just as soon as Xia De let go, the person who had fainted on the beach jumped up suddenly, then shook his body again, and together with the shaking people around him, he lowered his head and stepped into the scarlet sea water.

He can't stop these people at all.

The icy rain hit his face, the red of the sea, the yellow of the sky, and the formation of people on the ocean and the beach. At this moment, Xia De really felt chills in his heart:

"Rezia..."

He also ignored these strangers, turned and ran in the direction of Aurora Manor.

The beach where Shad landed is not far from Aurora Manor. After leaving the beach, I discovered that the church is not doing nothing. On the streets of Binhai, at intervals, there will be ordinary priests in robes holding scriptures and preaching the teachings of righteous gods loudly. At least two-thirds of the people who walked out of the city unconsciously passed out and passed out.

The police set up barricades at the main intersection near the beach to prevent those who walked out of their homes unconsciously. As for those who were stopped by the church and the police, the rest were those that Shad saw on the beach just now.

Calculated in this way, the number of people infected with the "mermaid curse" in Lengshuigang is at least four digits. And at least 90% of them were stopped inside the urban area. Lengshuigang Diocese was indeed fully prepared.

And the church's preparations are not only that, but what they really want to prevent is the tsunami that floods Lengshui Harbor, resulting in the death of the entire city. Therefore, most of the people currently in action are ordinary clergymen of the church. Together with the police and the Coldwater Harbor garrison, they fought against the murlocs in the urban area and on the beach, who were trying to stir up riots throughout the city.

As Shad traveled from the beach to the manor, he encountered more than one shootout. But he didn't find the Ring Warlocks of the Scarlet Esoteric Cult, nor did he see the Church's organized Ring Warlock squad. Obviously, the battlefield is not limited to land.

The forbidden relic set by the murlocs for the Aurora Manor was broken at dawn. When Xia De came near the manor, the police were still surrounding the place, forbidding anyone to approach. Although it was raining and the weather was strange, there were so many people nearby that the carriage even blocked up to the entrance of the tavern Shade had visited in the second half of the night.

In addition to the police, there are also the Lengshuigang navy, the priests of the church, the private armed forces of the local nobles, and a small number of gun-armed mercenaries whose background Shade can't see.

Such a chaotic situation was beyond Xia De's expectations, but fortunately, the manor is now allowed to enter and exit at will. The guests who came to the banquet are leaving in batches. It's just that the church's ring warlock team is blocking the gate of the manor. Anyone who wants to leave now must undergo the most rigorous physical examination. This has led to a group of guests staying in the manor and refusing to leave. Check and relax a bit before going.

Using [Ragley's Jump] to avoid the sight of the church, Shad also successfully sneaked into the manor. At this moment, people were almost everywhere in the Aurora manor, and it was not uncommon for people like Xia De to be dripping with water.

It's just that the corridor on the first floor leading to the wine cellar was blocked by the church, and walking upstairs against the flow of people, Xia De unexpectedly didn't see Miss Aurora, nor Princess Rezia.

But the witch has not forgotten Xia De, and specially left a servant on the third floor to wait for his return. Through Miss Aurora's message, Xia De knew that Princess Rezia didn't want to bump into the church, so he went to relax on the beach behind the manor. But the witch still has something to do, Xia De is very suspicious, she has discovered Darkness who was with the cultists through the explosion of the steam bomb.

"Did Miss Aurora go after Darkness?"

Although Luvia's divination shows that Darkness will not die in Coldwater Harbor, but will leave for Tobesk today and tomorrow. But going to Tobeysk intact is completely different from going to Tobeysk with only one breath left.

"However, what is Rezia going to the beach at this time..."

With such doubts in mind, Xia De walked out of the mansion again, walked through the garden to the beach. The beach behind the manor and the bay outside the beach are part of the Aurora Manor, which means that this huge area belongs to Xi Wei Aurora theoretically.

The size of the beach is very large, almost twice the size of the gardens, buildings and courtyards. Because of the rain and the fright of the gunfight in the first half of the night, there are not many people on the beach now.

Xia De didn't see Rezia at first, worried that she had walked into the sea. He ran to the beach and turned around anxiously, and when he turned around, he saw Rezia standing on the edge of the beach, looking at him under the grape arbor near the manor garden.

There are only two maids beside her, one is holding an umbrella for her, the other is holding the clerical relic [Soul Fishing Rod] that Shade bought from Old John, and the transparent fishing line is tied to the princess' wrist.

Seeing Xia De running over quickly, the red-haired girl deliberately turned her body around, as if she didn't want Xia De to see her right side profile. But when Shad approached, he still inevitably saw the swollen red tattoo on Rezia's face.

Because of the joint suppression of the sage-level relic [Saint's Curse-resolving Stone], the clerical-level relic [Saint Laurent's Ring] and the fishing rod, Leiziya's condition seems to be good. But when Xia De walked in front of her, the red-haired girl raised her hand to cover her side face again not to look at him.

When Shade grabbed his wrist very impolitely, took his right hand away forcefully, and touched the swollen and hot tattoo with his fingers, Leizia looked up at him with red eyes:

"Is it interesting that I look like this?"

Normally, Her Royal Highness would never say such things. Although the curse did not allow her to enter the ocean, her mental state was inevitably affected.

Xia De glanced at the two maids, and both of them looked at the empty beach ahead~lightnovelpub.net~, as if there was something very attractive there.

"I've even seen Dorothy's face turned into a murloc. What are you doing now? You also know about that time."

And by touching the mermaid tattoo on Leizia's side face, Xia De also confirmed that the curse was suppressed.

"Dorothy..."

I don't know if there was a comparison, or hearing the familiar name, Leizia's expression really relaxed.

Xia De stroked the tattoo lightly with his fingers, and then added:

"Besides, this is not a permanent tattoo. Even if it is permanent, scrape off the flesh and blood on your face with a knife, and then I will treat you with [Satiating Food], and you will be able to completely restore your most beautiful appearance."

[Satiating Food] The trauma wounds treated will never leave any traces.

Rezia hummed softly:

"What did you do just now? Why do you feel that you have changed so much? Dorothy said that you rarely take the initiative to praise girls for their beauty besides saying hello."

"That's not important. Rezia, why didn't you stay in the room? Instead, you ran here?"

Xia De frowned slightly and asked.
