Chapter 408: fishhook tattoo

"Luvia, what's the matter? If you can't bear it, let Dorothy replace you temporarily."

Holding the princess up, Xia De hurriedly gave advice in the rain.

"No, our souls are connected. Even if I go to Tobesk, the curse will still..."

She was clearly holding Xia De's arm to stand firm, but at this moment she actually took a step forward. Xia De immediately tightened the fishing line of the fishing rod, and then felt a powerful force pulling him forward.

This is not like the strength of Rezia, she is walking forward very slowly, but it is like the fishing line is not only connected to Rezia, but also to something that cannot be seen.

"what's the situation?"

Xia De pressed his shoes against the soft sand, stretched out his right hand, and pressed the top of the princess's wet long hair:

"Silver Moon!"

Silver light spilled from the palm, not dazzling. But when the holy silver light shone on Leiziya's face, black smoke actually appeared from the swollen murloc tattoo:

"Lezia, hurry up, the anti-curse stone!"

The staggering people passed by the two, and after bumping into Xia De, they took the initiative to detour.

Xia De hastily reminded that the slightly more awake princess raised her hand to touch the ruby ​​in her right ear. As the slender red ribbon was pulled out by her, the ugly murloc tattoo actually moved.

"oh!"

Rezia felt the pain, but suppressed it and just snorted. She guided the red ribbon on her fingertips, trying to wrap around the moving murloc tattoo on the surface of her skin. But the tattoo is so flexible that it runs along the skin of the face, trying to move towards the heart through the neck.

Xia De was shocked, if the tattoo went from the face to the front of the heart, he couldn't touch it.

"What am I thinking?"

Cursing himself in his heart, Xia De took the initiative to untie the fishing line wrapped around Leiziya's wrist:

"Lecia, I'm sorry."

The hand shining with the light of the silver moon grabbed Leiziya's neck, forcing the tattoo to be unable to pass through. Holding a metal fishhook in his left hand, it pierced Leizia's right cheek, piercing through the murloc tattoo.

"oh!"

The red-haired girl grabbed Xia De's arm violently, and Xia De gritted his teeth and held the fishing rod with both hands:

"Rezia, hold back."

"It's okay, you move quickly... oh!"

Before she finished speaking, Xia De raised the fishing rod, and the fishing line drove the hook to peel off Leiziya's face. What was peeled off was not only blood and flesh, but also the blood-red murloc tattoo.

It was not flat, it had already gained thickness after absorbing the blood from Leizia's face.

After being "caught" by the fishhook, the small, blood-red murloc landed on the beach, struggling up and down, and because it didn't take the bait actively, it couldn't trigger the characteristics of the fishing rod.

Rezia flicked out the red ribbon on her fingertips, firmly trapped the tattoo on the fishhook, and finally couldn't help sobbing.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Reaching into his pocket with his left hand, he took out the test tube containing water, and after endowing the water with the power of gluttony, Xia De gently dripped the water on Rezia's face.

It's just that Leiziya's face has just healed, and Xia De actually felt the pulling sensation from the fishing rod again. Looking up, the murloc tattoo that was still struggling on the ground actually flew up, and pointed directly at the huge mermaid corpse that was fighting with the church and academy ring warlocks on the distant coastline.

"Is there such a good thing?"

Xia De originally planned to go back to the sea to approach the corpse, but now that he has a guiding object, and even this object actively provides strength to pull him forward, he can even save some energy.

"Lezia, how are you feeling now?"

Shade held the fishing rod with both hands, and leaned back slightly to resist the pulling force of the tattoo on the hook.

"I......"

The red-haired girl covered her right face and touched it lightly a few times:

"My face really..."

"...There is really no trace at all, and it is still so beautiful. I use Mia to guarantee it. I mean, can you still feel the curse now?"

"No."

She shook her head immediately. Although she was still standing in the blood rain, the curse spread by the rain had little effect on the ring warlock.

"Okay, you go back to the mansion first."

"Okay, where are you going?"

She looked at Xia De in the rain, obviously there were many people around, passing by them and heading towards the ocean, but at the moment she only had Xia De in her eyes.

"I still have work to do."

Xia De looked at the coastline in the distance, with an expression of excitement that Leiziya couldn't understand on his face. What he longed for was most likely there:

"I never do risky things, don't worry about that. Wait for me to come back, I will completely end the mermaid curse, so you don't have to worry about it. When the matter in Coldwater Harbor is over, I think we can finally be in Tobes Maybe we can spend an afternoon chatting about politics, or after you put on your makeup and disguise, come with me for a cat walk on the boulevard in the University District, where the evening sun is beautiful."

The red rain made the clothes and face extremely weird, but Xia De still smiled and talked, and the fishing line in his hand tightened and loosened to control the struggling strength of the tattoo:

"How can I say such things before doing big things?"

He made a joke of his own.

"Xia De, you...be careful."

In the end, he couldn't say anything to stop Xia De. Xia De pulled the fishing rod vigorously, and smiled at the princess one last time:

"Go back quickly."

"You must be careful."

"Of course...if I don't come back, let Dorothy take care of Mia and write to Miss Gould. The ruby ​​ring your mother gave me is yours, and all the rest of my property is up to us The four people in the group are divided equally with Mia."

Although there is still a drop of divinity on his body, Xia De still wants to guard against the worst result.

He didn't think it was pessimistic, but was happy for the moment.

As a foreigner with no family, the young student Zack Hal died alone in the rented apartment. If Shad hadn't appeared, no one would have inherited his legacy; but his hometown is farther away, and he will never return Xia De, who went there, was able to find a friend who inherited the inheritance.

"Shad, you..."

Before Leiziya could finish her words, the murloc tattoo dragged Shade forward. With a very comical appearance, he staggered forward with big strides following the tattoo, and after passing those people who were staggering towards the sea in front of him, he screamed, as if he had been tripped, and plunged into the sea. After a few head-ups out of the water, it was never seen again.

It didn't look like Shad followed the tattoo, but rather like he was dragged into the sea abruptly.

The blood rain stained the princess's clothes red, she wanted to laugh at this moment, but felt a little sad:

"Shard Suren Hamilton."

She turned around and picked up the umbrella, calling Xia De's name softly. With her back facing the blood-red sea, she walked towards the house of Aurora Manor. At this moment, no one could see the expression of the princess:

"How many secrets do you have?"

Xia De in the sea didn't know what Rezia was thinking now. In fact, he wasn't swimming at all, but was being dragged forward in the water.

The flesh and blood of [Desire] allowed Xia De to maintain a good vision underwater. Not long after entering the water, he saw those people who entered the sea because of the return of the sea.

They "suspended" in the water in a strange posture. Eyes wide open, in a prayer pose. The sea water flowed through the corpses, making humming sounds from the corpses, but they obviously didn't open their mouths. This is the ceremonial matrix of the large-scale ceremony "Sea Return" in the ocean, and everyone who voluntarily sends himself back to the sea is a part of the matrix.

And when the Shad passes them, they also try to catch the Shad. Because of this, Xia De saw traces similar to murlocs on most of the corpses. This leads him to more guesses:

"The mermaid curse is more than I imagined, not only because the rain can spread the curse, but also because most of the aborigines in this city actually have the blood of the murlocs... The sea returns, returns to the sea where our ancestors lived."

Grabbing the fishing rod, he moved forward at high speed in the sea. Five minutes later, when Xia De vaguely saw the color of the sea water in front of him suddenly darken, he immediately realized that the huge mermaid corpse was right in front of him.

"How big is this thing?"

Just the part that Shad can see underwater, the seabed space occupied by the lower body of the mermaid is bigger than the biggest sea monster that Shad can imagine.

He always thought that he didn't have the so-called giant phobia or underwater phobia, but when he watched himself getting closer to the giant entrenched in the ocean ~lightnovelpub.net~ and was still wriggling underwater, Xia De still couldn't help feeling an uncontrollable fear in his heart.

At first, I could still imagine the cute cat at home with my eyes closed, so as to relieve the feeling of growing fear. But as he got closer to the huge mermaid corpse summoned from the abyss by the Scarlet Esoteric Cult, even with his eyes closed, Xia De felt that he could clearly "see" the more specific appearance of that thing.

The corpse had been decomposed, and the part on the bottom of the sea followed the ocean currents, continuously flowing green and black horrible pus into the water, forming a slender stream into the sea water. On the dark seabed, the lines on the surface of the corpse could be seen faintly. The lifted scales are rotten, but the pattern is extremely clear.

Then the weak light can be seen, it is a spiral, and it is a spiral connected with each other. Smaller spirals make larger spirals, and larger spirals make larger spirals.

Accompanied by the strange sound of the bottom of the sea, those spirals on the lightless bottom of the sea exude scarlet light, like opened eyes, with a strange power to attract souls. Xia De closed his eyes, only mentally perceived those patterns, but actually had the illusion that he could not control his body.

"It's just the texture of the corpse that has this kind of power?"

Fortunately, Xia De didn't have to endure it for too long. He didn't get close to the deep-sea giant underwater, but was carried by the blood-red tattoo hooked by the fishhook, and rushed directly to the top of the water.
