In the face of strong winds and waves, people's hearts can best be seen. Although Homar is still underage and cannot transform into a mermaid, he can still stand upright now, but he is much more courageous than his aunt.
But courage comes from courage, and now he knew very well that he would definitely die here today, together with his father and aunt.
When this cold knowledge spread to the bottom of my heart, the waves of anger were already approaching. The boundless wall of water crashed down with the force of heaven and earth, leaving nowhere to escape.
Homar did not close his eyes. He wanted to persist until the end like a real man.
But the wall of water didn't come over. He and his aunt were lifted up, and their bodies rose in the waves without any contact with the surrounding water, waves, wind and electricity.
He was moving very fast, and Homar could see the wall of waves behind him getting farther and farther away from him.
If it were another race, there would be no suspense about flying above level three, and it wouldn't be unusual in the first place.
However, the nature of the mermaids is in harmony with water, and they are much weaker when they are out of the water.
Therefore, they cannot levitate until they reach the fourth level, and if they want to fly quickly and freely, they must reach at least the fifth level.
But ability users of level five or above are eligible to obtain the right of residence in Haixin City, so why would they come to such a remote place?
At the very least, this was the first time that Homar had seen such a powerful person since he was born.
As soon as his feet touched the ground of Black Rock Island, he didn't bother to say thank you. He turned over and knelt down in front of the man, his eyes full of pleading: "Please, save my father!"
"Homar!" Auntie stepped forward, grabbed his shoulders and tried to pull him up: "Stop making trouble. No one can save people in the sea under the purple moon, so don't embarrass your benefactor."
Homar understood what she said, but still didn't want to give up this last glimmer of hope.
He had only seen a little bit of the horror of the heavy purple moon, but his father's voice and smile seemed to be still in front of him.
He crawled forward, bent down and kissed the man's feet, with almost crazy piety: "Please. If you can't save father, I will never see him again. But he clearly promised me , you want to grow up with me, teach me how to change my shape, and celebrate my coming-of-age ceremony."
Homar choked with sobs, and his voice became lower and lower, gradually turning into sobs.
This boy who grew up at sea finally gradually realized that the outcome he least wanted to face was about to become a reality.
But what can I do? A mermaid born in the Aurora Sea, even if she is just a child, is already used to seeing such separation between life and death.
A voice sounded beside Homar: "Go save people, uncle."
"good."
The benefactor in front of him disappeared without a trace in an instant, and someone helped Homar up from the side.
As soon as he raised his head, he met a pair of extremely bright eyes.
A boy of similar height was looking at him with concern: "Don't worry. If your father is still alive, then he will be saved."
Homar felt relieved. Only then did he see a boy standing on the left.
The boy was half a head taller than him, looking past him into the distance and paying no attention to what he meant.
But he remembered that the sound he just heard came from this direction.
Therefore, the one who spoke to save people before was actually this boy who seemed a little indifferent.
Just as Homar was about to say thanks, he saw many tribesmen gathered around him, including his mother.
"Thank God, you're back well!" His mother held him tightly in her arms.
She already knew about her husband's situation from those who had returned early, so she did not mention him at this time, but tears fell drop by drop, wetting Homar's back.
"Mom, don't worry." Homar comforted her and said, "Someone has already gone to save my father. He will be fine."
"Nonsense! In this weather, how can you go to the sea to save people again? Aren't you risking another life in vain?" The white-haired clan leader stood up and slammed his cane on the ground:
"There are a total of eight people who did not return to the island in time tonight. Their relatives are here, and they are all looking forward to a miracle. But this does not mean that we should let others commit crimes because of our own selfishness. risk."
"You didn't even say thank you solemnly to the person who saved you just now, but you went to great lengths to beg him to go into the sea again. You didn't think at all that the other person might be in danger or even lose his life."
When the old man said this, he shook his head heavily: "Homar, you really disappoint me!"
The old clan leader has always been kind and fair, and he loves the little mermaids who have not yet transformed, so his accusation is extremely serious for Homar.
He uneasily broke away from his mother's arms and lowered his head to the two boys: "I'm sorry. I just want to see my father so much."
"It's okay." The tall boy's voice was clear and sweet: "The person has been rescued."
Before he finished speaking, the benefactor who left earlier appeared again. With just a wave of his hand, five mermaids were arranged in a row on the ground.
"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life." He smiled and said, "Everyone alive is here."
Homar's father is also among them. Like other mermaids, he is covered in scars and unconscious.
The injured were carried away for treatment, and the benefactor and the two boys were welcomed into Black Rock Island and received a warm welcome and hospitality.
The mermaids on the island all belong to the Hegla mermaid lineage and are very close to each other, so news spreads very quickly.
Homar soon learned that the person who saved him and his father was Shu Lang, a fifth-level mermaid, and the two boys were his nephews, named Roy and Poirot respectively.
They came from the Baiqi Sea in the west and were going to settle in Haixin City. They passed by here and saved people.
The heavy purple moon lasted for three full days, and everyone could only huddle on the Black Rock Island. It was during this time that Homar, several of his friends, and the two boys became good friends.
The two new friends knew a lot, and there were many things they said that Homar and the others couldn't understand.
But it doesn't matter if you don't understand, and they have never disliked them for it.
Not only do they not dislike it, Roy and Poirot will also bring out some weird snacks and toys, such as chocolate birds that can fly around, lollipops that can open their mouths and bite people, and they will randomly turn into colorful sea creatures when eaten. Mouth glue and so on.
As long as you answer their questions carefully, you can get various rewards.
"So, at this age, you have not yet connected to the Imperial Star Network?" Poirot asked.
"Imperial Star Network?" Homar and his friends looked at each other, each of them was a little confused:
"What is that? We have only heard of the Aurora Network, which can connect the entire Aurora Sea. However, both personal terminals and Internet fees are too expensive. Not many people in our entire Black Rock Island can afford it."
Poirot frowned more and more: "How come, the Imperial Star Network and the primary terminal are obviously free?"
"Okay." Rhodes stopped her. He handed a small golden mesh bag to Homar: "This is a sonic trap that can attract and capture marine life below the third level."
"Thank you, Rod!" Homar took the mesh bag under the envious eyes of others.
"Next question. Do you know why your parents and brothers actively chose the mermaid form instead of solidifying into human form when they reached adulthood?"
