Chapter 149 Raging Sea

Chapter 149 Raging Sea
"Fuck, what should I do, Brother Feng? What should I do? How can I fight this!" Ramen Brother was so scared that he couldn't speak clearly because of the black mass of mermaids and a leader-level BOSS in front of him.

He had been surviving all the way through the game, and he had barely defeated any bosses, let alone elites.

Xiao Jie was also a little nervous, but only a little. After playing the game for a long time, he became familiar with some of the hidden rules of the game. The game would not give players a test that they could not complete. These mermaids in front of him seemed invincible, but they would definitely not let the players defeat them forcefully. There must be a way to win without fighting in the plot.

"Don't worry. These mermaids have short legs and will be useless once they come ashore. At worst, we can just use infinite kites." Xiao Jie comforted.

What Xiao Jie said was theoretically correct. With the advantages of speed and range, they would not be afraid of any number of monsters. Of course, the premise is that there is no leader-level BOSS - the mermaid princess. At the beginning, a mermaid water master suppressed the three of them. This mermaid princess might be several orders of magnitude stronger than the mermaid water master.

If a fight really breaks out, who knows what powerful moves will be used.

But of course I can't say this openly as it would have too great of an impact on morale, so let's just wait and see what happens.

While they were talking, the mermaid princess had already started talking to Granny Li.

Ji Xian'er (Mermaid Princess): "Old woman, where did you find so many people to help you?"

Granny Li (Flying Yaksha): "Little bitch, I've said it before, Li Bao is the blood of my Li family, I will never go with you, these people are all martial arts masters I found, returnees who kill without blinking an eye, take your people and retreat quickly, otherwise - hehe!"

Xiao Jie thought to himself, wow, do you know these two?
Hey, that’s not right. This woman can actually speak. Isn’t it said that mermaids can’t speak?
"Old woman, Li Bao is the jewel of the mermaid royal family and is destined to return to the sea. Li Bao, Li Bao!"

"Shut up!" Granny Li raised her hand and shot a flying knife at the mermaid princess. Immediately, a mermaid guard stood in front of her.

After shouting a few times and seeing no one answering, the mermaid princess simply started singing.

Ah… Ah… Ah… Ah! A beautiful song rang out, carrying a strange sense of resentment and temptation, as if it was a call from the depths of the ocean.

You know what, this song is quite nice to hum.

Li Bao walked out of the thatched cottage in a daze.

"Baoer, why did you come out? Go back quickly." Granny Li hurried over to stop her.

Li Bao turned a deaf ear to her and looked at the merman princess and asked infatuatedly, "Is that you, Xian'er? Is it really you?"

"It's me, Li Lang. I'm here to pick you up. Come to my side and let me take you to the sea, to the kingdom that belongs to us."

Xiao Jie hurriedly stood in front of Li Bao. He really controlled the boy's mind. "Li Bao, do you know her?"

Li Bao was a little confused. "I have been dreaming about her these past few days. She said I was destined to be her husband and asked me to go find her. I thought it was just a dream."

Granny Li was furious. "It's a dream magic! This little bitch is so shameless! I never thought there would be such a sorcery."

The merman princess just hummed softly, "Li Bao, your mother is the princess of the mermans of the East China Sea, and you are the prince of my merman clan. Come with me."

"Nonsense, Bao'er, don't listen to the instigation of this witch. Three warriors, don't shoot! As long as you drive these shrimp monsters away, you will definitely benefit a lot."

Xiao Jie thought to himself, damn, what’s the point of just talking, why don’t you just put the reward out there?

If there really is something good, I'll help you.

The merman princess sneered, "Hehehe, do you really know it in your heart? Why haven't you told Li Lang about his life experience in all these years?"

Li Bao looked at Granny Li in shock, "Granny, is this true?"

"Don't listen to her nonsense. Your mother is the daughter of a businessman in trouble. Back then, she..."

Xiao Jie knew it was time, he sighed, pretending to be deep and said: "Senior Li, why do you have to hide it so much, Brother Li Bao, maybe I can give you an answer. After my investigation during this period of time, I have some understanding of the past events.

Your mother is indeed a princess of the mermaid clan. Everything started fifteen years ago, when..."

When Granny Li saw that Xiao Jie was about to tell the truth, she suddenly became anxious.

"Yin Yue Sui Feng! Stop talking nonsense and shoot those fish monsters for me. If you help me with this, I will give you all my treasures!"

"Enough!" Xiao Jie suddenly shouted angrily, "We who return home fight evil and defend justice in order to restore peace to the world, to save the people, and to eliminate violence and protect the good. How can we be bought with money and equipment? Granny Li, I respect you as an old lady and a senior in the martial arts world, but you keep humiliating me with money and other things. What is your intention?
Compared with the truth, these material things are nothing. Please stop saying such things. I will not be tempted by you."

Granny Li was immediately confused. Did I look at the wrong person? There is no reason. This guy is obviously profit-seeking. Although he pretends to be very good, I still have good judgment.

"That's not what you said when you took the bounty."

Xiao Jie said righteously: "We heroes also need to eat. It is natural to get paid for killing monsters, but we will never lose our bottom line for gold and silver treasures. What is true is true, and what is false is false. Justice is in the hearts of the people. Today I must tell the truth."

I want to become an immortal and shouted, "That's right, a person must be honest. Yes, honesty is the foundation of being a human being...honesty..."

After shouting twice, I found that I couldn't act out the feeling, and even felt a little ashamed, so I could only shut up.

Xiao Jie thought that young people were still too naive, so he should do the task of showing off.

"It all started fifteen years ago..."

Xiao Jie told the truth as he had restored it.

Finally, he said seriously: "So Li Bao, you do have the blood of the mermaids, but you are also the blood of the Li family. If I guess correctly, your mother is very likely a royal family of the mermaids, and you are indeed a prince of the mermaid clan. This is the truth of everything."

[System prompt: Granny Li's favorability towards you has decreased by 20 points.]

"You bastards, how dare you say such nonsense! You are deceiving my Baoer. Baoer, don't listen to their nonsense. These guys must be in cahoots with the witch. I, the grandmother, am the one who truly treats you well." The name above Granny Li's head changed from green to yellow, from yellow to orange, and from orange to red. After a while, it changed from red to orange again.

Fortunately, despite the powerful enemy, Granny Li doesn't dare to turn hostile, and the current relationship is just [indifferent] rather than [hostile].

[System prompt: Ji Xian'er's favorability towards you has increased by 20 points.]

The name of the mermaid princess changed from red, which means "hostile", to yellow, which means "neutral".

Ji Xian'er smiled and said, "This warrior is indeed a man who understands reason and knows good from bad. To be honest, something happened in my Jiaoren Kingdom some time ago. Now there are only Li Bao and I left in the Jiaoren royal family. Only the two of us can continue our bloodline. If you two warriors can send Li Bao to me, I will definitely reward you handsomely. You three can use the treasures that the Jiaoren Kingdom has accumulated over the past thousand years at will."

Xiao Jie waited for three seconds and saw no system prompt. He was speechless. This was another person who wanted to get something for free.

Is there no honest NPC in Sunset Plains?
It's not as good as the Ginkgo Fairy back then. When she issued the task, at least there was a '? ? ? ?' reward. No matter what it was, at least there was such a thing. But you guys don't even pretend to give it a try. You just make empty promises.

After playing for so long, he has finally found a pattern. If there is really a reward, the system will most likely give a clear explanation, even if it is something ambiguous. But if there is no system prompt, it is likely that the NPC is fooling people.

The angrier you are, the more righteous your tone will be.

"Shut up, you woman are so ignorant that you actually want to seduce us. We have principles. Since Granny Li's treasure is useless, your treasure is useless. You are even more hateful than Granny Li. Granny Li only deceived her, but you robbed her. Don't you know that a real man has his own ways and his own ways? We will not fall for your temptation.

As the saying goes, money is like floating clouds to me, fame and fortune are like dust to me, I, Yin Yue Sui Feng, travel the world to give this world a bright and peaceful world, how could I deviate from the right path because of the temptation of a little wealth and treasure? Your behavior is really ridiculous, ridiculous! "

After these lines were finished, the scene was silent for a moment, and everyone was stunned by Xiao Jie's words.

The NPC was really stunned, and Ramen Brother and I were even more shocked - he is indeed worthy of being Brother Feng, he can recite such childish lines so naturally and fluently.

[System prompt: Granny Li's favorability towards you has increased by 30 points.]

[System prompt: Ji Xian'er's favorability towards you has increased by 10 points.]

Ok?
Xiao Jie was a little surprised. It was okay that Granny Li’s favorability increased, but why did Ji Xian’er’s favorability also increase?
It seems that gentlemen are still respected. Okay, then let’s continue pretending.

Xiao Jie looked at Li Bao, "Li Bao, a real man is born in this world, how can he be manipulated by others? Today is the day you become an adult. As a man, you should have your own responsibilities. What choice you make today is ultimately up to you.

But you can rest assured, whether you want to be your own mermaid prince, or go with your mother-in-law to guard the ancestral foundation, I, Yin Yue Sui Feng, will protect you today with my loyalty as my first priority, just make your choice!"

Li Bao's blood boiled after hearing this, and his face was full of admiration.

"Brother Suifeng, I..."

"Baoer! Don't listen to him."

"Li Lang! Come with me to the sea."

"Enough!" Li Bao shouted suddenly, and his eyes finally became firm.

"Brother Suifeng, you are right. A real man should have his own responsibilities. Mother-in-law, I know you want me to carry on the family line of the Li family, live and work in peace, but I also have my own goals in life. You have locked me up in a thatched cottage for more than ten years. It can be said that I have been living a miserable life. This is definitely not the life I should have. I want to be like Brother Suifeng, exorcising demons and defending the way of morality, traveling the world, doing something, and being respected by the world.

If I can achieve something in the future and return safely, I will naturally marry, have children and serve you.

But before that, please forgive me for being unfilial.

Xian'er, I appreciate your kindness. Although I do have mermaid blood, I know nothing about mermaids. Maybe one day in the future I will visit the East China Sea, and if the Mermaid Kingdom is in trouble, I can lend a helping hand.

But I will never accept a forced marriage, please go back."

The color of the name above Granny Li's head finally changed back to the friendly green.

"Bao'er, you've grown up. You look exactly like your father. Okay, I won't care about you anymore. Just be happy."

Ji Xian'er on the other side gritted her teeth and said, "Since you refuse to give in, don't blame me for using force. Mermaids, listen to my orders and take back the prince!"

Hundreds of mermaids swarmed over.

Are we really going to fight? No way.

Although there is a level 24 Granny Li here, this old woman is just an NPC panel, and her data is far inferior to that of Ji Xian'er on the opposite side.

Add to that the hundreds of mermaids, it's impossible to fight them.

The only advantage is speed.

Xiao Jie said in a deep voice: "Don't be afraid, these shrimp soldiers and fish monsters are nothing to be afraid of when they are out of water."

Ji Xian'er snorted coldly: "You are right, then let me show you the power of my mermaid water control technique!" The gem in her hand emitted a dazzling light, and she waved a short staff, muttering to herself.

"The vast sea rises from the flat ground, and the hundred-foot-high waves are raging!"

Magic—the raging sea is rising!

Suddenly, a huge wave arose on the surface of the lake and rushed towards the shore.
