Chapter 265: Mermaids are not only love-minded, but also executioners (15)
This statement came out.
The square, which was crowded with mermaids, was briefly silent before bursting into various high-pitched voices.
"No, we just got this news, and our own people betrayed us and came to us?"
"Which abominable mermaid is it that, after following the humans, comes back to target us, its own kind?"
"Are they almost here? How many of them are there? If all of us mermaids come together, can we kill them all?"
"Don't let me know who betrayed the tribe, or I'll use all the poison I've researched on them."
"Who is so vicious? In order to obtain the top bloodline talent of their ancestors, they actually let humans slaughter their own people."
Amidst these curses and worries, there were also a few emotional voices.
"We mermaids didn't know this news before. Could it be that the human who deceived us is trying to stir up trouble?"
"Yes, yes, we can't wrongly accuse our own people. Let's take a look at the situation first."
"I'm also a young merman. I don't believe that any of my peers would attack their own people just because their children are gifted."
"Yes, yes. Didn't they say that the top bloodline talents of our mermaid ancestors were coveted by humans? It must be that human who threatened our people to come here."
Amidst the mermaids' chatter, several young female mermaids leaning against each other muttered to themselves.
"That young mermaid, could it be Beryl? After all, she seems to be the only young mermaid not here."
"I remember that Beryl saved a human man some time ago, and then followed the man who claimed to be a prince."
"Beryl seems to be quite fond of that human. She even went to Elena for him and traded her most precious singing voice for a pair of legs that can walk freely on land."
"I remember now. Beryl and I rescued that human together. He looked at us strangely and I left. Could he have been planning to plot against us mermaids all along?"
The mermaids made little noise, and should not have been noticeable among the noisy mermaid group.
But as soon as they opened their mouths, Bu Shi'an over there released his magical power to suppress the voices of the other mermaids.
Because they were the only ones who were avoided, their words were particularly clear and distinct among the mermaids who were forced to lower their voices.
The mermaids were already frightened and talked about it.
Now that he heard them provide the suspect, he immediately racked his brains to think about the mermaid named Beryl.
After making sure the mermaids heard this, Bu Shian took back the dissipated magic power.
Feeling a lightness on his body, the grumpy mermaid opened his mouth
"Okay, so the merman who wanted to betray her tribe was Beryl. No wonder she made such a fuss, forcing Elena to replace her leg. It turns out she wanted to join the humans and turn around to kill us, her own kind."
"Don't tell me, it's true. Ever since Beryl had her legs replaced, she seems to have never shown up in the tribe."
"I just counted the mermaids present. Except for Beryl, all the mermaids under a hundred years old are here."
With a suspected target, the mermaids seemed to have found an outlet for their venting.
In the even noisier square, Bu Shian had to use magic to suppress it.
"My fellow tribesmen, please be quiet."
"Those people are coming to the beach next to our living waters. No matter what they think, they must have a reason for coming near our habitat."
"The elders and I are holding this meeting to let you know about this situation so that you won't be tricked without knowing it."
She said this and glanced at the mermaids in the square.
Finally, his eyes fell on several mermaids who had a closer relationship with Beryl.
"As you guessed, the mermaid who brought the humans back was Beryl."
"We don't know exactly what they're planning to do. Based on the information we've recently received from human society, we're asking everyone to be on guard."
"We shouldn't doubt our own people just because we believe rumors. Similarly, we should be wary of those who have come into contact with other races."
"After all, the top bloodline of our mermaid ancestors is for the continuation of the tribe in the face of life-or-death crises. But to some greedy humans and other tribes, it is no different from fragrant fat meat."
"No mermaid can guarantee whether Beryl and the others who are about to arrive are planning this. We can't guarantee whether members of the tribe who were deceived by other tribes will turn against us in the future."
"What we can do is to improve our magic level as much as possible."
"And at all times, for the sake of your own survival and that of your tribe, be skeptical of any sudden enthusiasm."
……
The meeting ended successfully, and all the mermaids knew that Beryl had returned here with humans.
So when Beryl followed Sifranc and others, they built a temporary residence on the beach.
Using the mermaid tribe's unique communication method, she contacted her former sisters and told them that she had something important she wanted to see them about.
Without exception, all I received were rejections.
The reasons for rejecting her are varied.
For example, he was too far behind dolphins in speed, was recuperating at home due to illness, and was urged by the elders of the tribe to practice in seclusion.
What's even more outrageous is that one merman directly said that she was getting married and if you don't want to give a gift, don't bother her.
But Beryl clearly remembered that the little sister said that she never wanted to get married in her life.
All the outrageous rejections made her realize it belatedly.
These former playmates no longer want to see her.
Is it because she lost her singing voice or because she has been away from the sea for a long time.
It couldn't be that they knew she came to see them with a purpose.
How is that possible? Mermaids live in the sea and won't stay on land for long unless necessary.
The range of their mermaids' unique communication method cannot leave this sea area more than a hundred meters.
The central city of the country where West Frank is located is so far away from here, and the palace is guarded by guards. How could the mermaids in the tribe know what is happening there?
Rather than this possibility, she would rather believe that these mermaids were jealous of her.
Beryl, feeling good about herself, didn't notice that when her playmates rejected her she would complain.
Behind her, a gloomy look crossed Xi Frank's face.
Beryl may complain, but it's for her own future.
After discussing with Sifranc, he decided to go to the bottom of the sea to find them in person.
With the legs she gained through exchange, Beryl naturally couldn't transform into a fishtail.
She could only wear heavy clothes and swim to the bottom of the sea with her legs.
At this moment, she was somewhat glad that she only gave up the legs and did not give up the fins.
Otherwise, if she takes the initiative to contact the tribe and no one comes up, and she cannot dive back to the tribe, then the method she has worked so hard to obtain will be in vain.
Under the sea, mermaid village.
Several mermaids contacted by Beryl called out all their tribesmen.
The square where the meeting was held before was once again filled with mermaids.
