Chapter 1085: The Sea Tribe’s Big Step
Chapter 1085 A Big Step for the Sea Clan
"Understood……"
Looking at the clamshell boat that was swept out of the water by the whirlpool after the carriage completely sank to the bottom, Leon could not help but say speechlessly:
"So, my ship failed to avoid the cargo ship that came in later, not only because the sailors were sick and there were not enough people, but also because of your big clam shell right below?"
"This...may be related in some way..."
After secretly touching the winning shell on her chest, Miss Salted Fish said awkwardly:
"We sea creatures can breathe in the water, so our boats don't need to float up. Your sailors can't see us above the water, so..."
"So when my boat was moving backwards, it was pushed up by your boat underwater, and hit by another boat above water, so it was stuck in the middle, which is why it sank so completely?"
"Um……"
"..."
No wonder... Although my badge was the culprit, you were forced to sign a bunch of unequal treaties during the day, and now you should wish you could never see me again in your life. Why did you come to the port at night?
After glancing at the mermaids hiding in the huge clam shell boat in the distance and looking at this side through the gaps on the edge of the clam shell, Leon couldn't help but say with suspicion:
"You came to ram my boat in the middle of the night... You didn't come here just to get revenge on me, did you?"
"No... not..."
I do want to take revenge, but I have to beat you first!
After shaking her head repeatedly, Miss Salted Fish explained:
"It was just an accident. My mother... was worried about my safety, so she came to check on me. And your ship happened to move..."
"..."
A lie... or only partly true.
Seeing Miss Salted Fish's soul full of lies, Leon couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and asked meaningfully:
"you sure?"
"I'm sure this is just an accident..."
"Besides the accidental part?"
"?!!!"
"The reason why you appeared at the port, and the purpose of your mother's sudden visit."
After pointing out two suspicious points about Miss Salty Fish, Leon, who had always remembered the sea creatures behind her, narrowed his eyes and reminded her:
"Friendly reminder, your insistence on attending the Twelve Kingdoms gathering as a human has always been very suspicious in my eyes. Before I am sure that you and the sea people behind you are harmless, you'd better not lie to me... What on earth do you want to do here so late at night?"
"I……"
Knowing that her deliberate cover-up just now must have triggered some ability of the God of Cookery to discern lies, Miss Salted Fish could only explain in a low voice:
"I'm here to pick up something..."
"what?"
"It's just... it's something that can be used."
"what?"
"That's... this..."
"Which one?"
"This!"
Being forced into a corner by Leon, the hesitant Miss Salty Fish could not help but stamp her feet, and lifted the shell in front of her like a broken jar, then raised her head and chest to show off [Charming Hill]... and said with gritted teeth:
"These two! I'm here to get these two things! Do you want to check even these?" "..."
Is this actually true? So, you took the risk of running into me again and being blackmailed, and sneaked back to the port just to change your inner... outer... breastplate?
"Fine……"
After confirming that this was indeed the truth, Leon opened his mouth speechlessly, then his expression softened slightly, and he nodded in apology:
"I overreacted. Since it's just your personal matter, it has nothing to do with me, so I won't bother you anymore... Remember to compensate for the ship and the cargo!"
"I know...I know..."
After Lyon turned and left, Miss Salted Fish, who had successfully incurred a large new debt, jumped into the water dejectedly and swam towards the clam boat driven by her mother.
But what surprised Miss Salted Fish was that what greeted her was not complaints and panic, but the extremely respectful gazes of the mermaids and clam girls in the clam boat.
"As expected of my daughter!"
The mermaid floated over on the big pearl and hugged her hard. Then she praised excitedly:
“Wendy! You actually argued with that God of Food, forcing him to make concessions and even apologize to you, and in the end you were able to escape unscathed... You are truly the future of our sea people!”
"???"
What the hell is going on? I just puffed out my chest and let him take a look. How did that become the pride of the sea tribe?
Being confused by the jubilant atmosphere around her, Miss Salted Fish said in bewilderment:
"Mother? What are you talking about? I just went to explain the accident of the ship collision. Why do you make it seem like I did something big?"
“This is already amazing!”
After patting Miss Salty Fish's back, the mermaid took a deep breath and said with a hint of fear in her eyes:
“You think you’re just explaining, but when has the God of Cookery ever explained things to others?
The three-headed dog god who used to guard the gate of the dead world was eaten alive just because he tried to stop him from entering or leaving! The descendants of the earth in the center of the earth had just escaped when he blocked them and slaughtered them repeatedly! The dream world... the Kingdom of Korok... the Kingdom of the North... the dead world...
When it comes to opponents he has had conflicts with, he only has one choice, which is to fight them straight to the end! How can he reason with them? "
"Is it so exaggerated..."
"It's even more exaggerated than this!"
After thinking about the information she had collected, the beautiful mermaid couldn't help but sigh:
"As the most hard-line and iron-blooded person in the Cleanup Bureau, the God of Cookery does not accept any negotiations at all. He has been killing people all the way since he came to power! He has never bowed to any other race besides humans. You are the only exception so far... He even apologized to you!
"I did apologize...but he also asked me to pay him money..."
"Losing money is a big deal?"
The mermaid lady was speechless:
"So far, the lightest punishment for those who have offended the God of Food has been imposed, and their entire clan has been made dogs by the Cleanup Bureau! There are so many death masters in the Death Realm, so why not just kill them all without leaving a single one, without even a chance to pay compensation!"
"No... I think you seem to have a deep misunderstanding of him..."
Although she was also shocked when she just heard the words of the beautiful mermaid woman, but after thinking about the past two days with the Leon family, she felt that this God of Food was not as extreme and crazy as the rumors said. Miss Salted Fish couldn't help but shook her head and said:
"I feel that although the God of Food has a tough attitude, he is not the kind of person who is completely unreasonable. He is also very gentle when communicating... He is even the kind of person who is very tolerant. As long as you don't really touch his bottom line, many things can be discussed."
"This... do you think there is a possibility that he is just willing to talk to you?"
"what?"
Seeing the daughter who had been fed some kind of magic potion and insisted that the God of Cookery was a mild-tempered "normal person", the beautiful mermaid woman couldn't help but hissed, and then whispered anxiously:
"Wendy, tell me the truth...does he really have any feelings for you?"
