2379 The Homeland of the Merfolks (4)
In the blue ocean, an island stood quietly. Under the guidance of Mo Yuxun, the Dragon God stayed on the island.
“Here we are.” Mo Yuxun looked at the surrounding scenery.
“This is the capital of the merfolks?” Tang Nazhi was suddenly struck dumb. Wasn’t it said that the merfolks lived in the ocean? This was clearly an island!
“This island is just a smokescreen. The bottom of this island is connected to the capital of the merfolks,” Mo Yuxun said.
No one expected that the capital of the merfolks would be located under an island.
“It’s so magical.” Tang Nazhi touched his chin and looked at the scenery on the island. The whole island was covered with greenery. The island was not big, as one could almost see the edge at a glance.
“I have a question,” Vermilion Bird suddenly said.
“What?”
“How am I supposed to breathe underwater?” Vermilion Bird was a little vexed. He was a fire-elemental magical beast and was naturally not fond of water. Even though he had evolved into a holy beast, he still had to breathe air even if he was a holy beast. After all, he was not a fish and did not have gills.
“I don’t know how magical beasts can breathe underwater, but humans can use battle aura or magic to form a barrier around their bodies.” Mo Yuxun confessed.
“…” Vermilion Bird was depressed, and so was Taotie. One of them was a fire-elemental magical beast that was afraid of water, while the other was a landlubber. If they were to go into the ocean, they would probably sink to the bottom in an instant.
“Cough, I’d better stay in your body.” Vermilion Bird wisely stood by Shen Yanxiao’s side at the first instance. Even though he did not like to stay in Shen Yanxiao’s body, it was better than drowning in water. Taotie also nodded eagerly.
“I don’t have battle aura or magic…” Yu Lei weakly stretched out his hand. Although he used to be a bad student, at least he still had some ability, but since integrating the blood of dwarves, the last trace of strength in his body had disappeared.
Vermillion Bird, Taotie and Yu Lei were not the only ones who could not breathe underwater. The same was true of the reticent Bian on one side. It was just that he did not speak, just conveying the fact that he could not go into the water with his eyes. Several elemental spirits were also shaking their small bodies, staying away from the ocean. It seemed that they had no interest in the ocean at all. Only the water elemental spirit was more active.
Speaking of excitement, Little Phoenix and Mini Dragon had already started jumping up and down the moment they arrived at the island. If it were not for Vermilion Bird’s sharp eyes and agile hands, these two adorable fools would have jumped into the ocean and drowned.
Shen Yanxiao had a little headache. From the current situation, there were only a few people who could really enter the merfolk capital: her, Tang Nazhi, Mo Yuxun, and the Dragon God.
Naturally, there was no need to talk about her and Tang Nazhi. Mo Yuxun’s body was integrated with the blood of the merfolks, so it was easy for him to get into the water. As for the Dragon God, he was a god, and there was no place in the world he could not go.
“Well, Little Xun, Nazhi, the Dragon God, and I will go to the merfolk capital. Vermilion Bird, you and Taotie should not stay in my body. Stay on the island and take care of Little Phoenix and Little Fire.” Shen Yanxiao rubbed her eyebrows. Little Phoenix and Mini Dragon only listened to Vermilion Bird. If Vermilion Bird were to leave, these two adorable fools would certainly jump into the water when Bian was not paying attention.
“…” Vermilion Bird gloomily looked at the two adorable fools jumping on his shoulders and could only nod sadly.
