When Yin Lian heard what he said, she vaguely realized that the mermaid society might be more merciful than she expected.
The fact that Zaosheng has a particularly good attitude towards her because "she is very strong" can actually give people this feeling. But then, Zaosheng was full of confidence in his own thoughts and judgments, and the reason for his confidence was also his judgment of his own abilities, which made people feel the difference obviously.
Yin Lian has never shown any fighting ability, and her appearance is actually very deceiving. Regardless of temperament, at least in terms of age and body shape, she still looks relatively lacking in strength.
...Of course, the truth remains to be seen.
And what Zaosheng was talking about was definitely not her combat power, it felt more like her mental power. Yin Lian realized that mental power may be a very important criterion for judging strength for mermaids.
In order to find out the news about this kingdom under the sea, Yin Lian would often find opportunities to talk to Zaosheng in private. Zaosheng was also very cooperative. He seemed to be very curious about the situation on land and often asked Yin Lian about the world on the sea.
Yin Lian asked him: "You live in the sea, can you land on land?"
Zaosheng replied: "Yes, you can, but you can only rise to the surface of the sea for a short time. There is no water on the land, so you can only crawl little by little, which is very inconvenient. And a place without water makes people feel empty. Breathing also feels very difficult, and over time, it is easy to get oxygen poisoning, so we try not to go there."
The word "oxygen poisoning" has never appeared before, so Yin Lian cannot understand the meaning. She asked Zaosheng for a while before she roughly understood the meaning of the word, and then translated it into a suitable Chinese vocabulary.
When Yin Lian heard what he said, he suddenly understood. For algae, their landing on land is like humans being exposed to ultraviolet radiation from outer space. Although certain protective measures can be taken to temporarily ensure survival, if it can be avoided, everyone will try to avoid it.
It's no wonder that Xia Kingdom didn't find much about this underwater kingdom before. If they hadn't built their base two thousand meters underwater, it's unlikely that these mermaids would have had any contact with humans.
Zaosheng asked Yin Lian in turn: "What about you people on land? Can't you live in the sea? I see that you have been in a glass box that is isolated from sea water. Will contact with sea water also poison you?"
Yin Lian said: "Contact with sea water will not make us poisoned. But the lack of air will. And we are very fragile. If we directly enter such a deep seabed, we will be oppressed by the huge water pressure all of a sudden. Even the rupture of our internal organs will not be complete. impossible things."
Zaosheng opened his mouth slightly, obviously a little shocked, and said: "...Is this possible? But can't you live in a glass box like this?"
Yin Lian said: "Because this wall blocks the water pressure. It can protect us."
After hearing this, Zaosheng was silent for a while and said, "I understand."
After Yin Lian talked to Zaosheng several times in private, no one at the base has noticed these things - after all, there are many people at Xia Ting Undersea Base and things are complicated, and the players are here to collect information. Even if you try to talk to the sand eel and deep sea mermaid to find materials, it won't make people feel weird. Secondly, the algae itself is not the property of the base, but a guest from another huge intelligent race.
Although he doesn't seem to be a deterrent now, in fact, in the deep sea field, even if they have established a relatively large base, it is actually not worth mentioning for the deep sea mermaids.
As long as they break these glass covers, I'm afraid all the humans in the base will be wiped out. And even if they are destroyed, there is nothing humans can do against them.
Fortunately, this group of deep-sea mermaids are relatively friendly and curious about their neighbors on land.
Because they are guests, Zaosheng and the other mermaids are not actually locked up in the base. There is a passage to the sea where they live temporarily, and they can swim in the nearby sea at any time. It's not that the base doesn't want to study them, it's that after considering the pros and cons, it doesn't want to easily trigger the mermaid's hostility.
So in this case, as long as the mermaid is willing, there is no problem meeting and chatting with someone in private. It is also difficult for the base to monitor, and it does not want to anger the mermaid with obvious surveillance behaviors.
Although the base did not notice Yin Lian's various little moves, Zaosheng's companions quickly noticed it. Yin Lian didn't explain it specifically, so Zaosheng didn't hide the fact that Yin Lian could use the mermaid language to communicate with them and made rapid progress.
It stands to reason that players should be broadcast live while they are at the base, but it is not 24/7. Because a person always has to eat, go to the toilet, and gossip in private. For example, when Yin Lian participated in this competition, it was inevitable that some contestants would talk about her in private. When she was with other contestants, it was inevitable that she would talk about her in private. When gossiping about other players, commenting on them.
Most people will do these things, but the program will not broadcast them word for word. These private contents are of no benefit to the program. Instead, they will only damage the reputation of the program and the contestants and cause unnecessary negative attention.
They are not celebrities and do not need to be exposed to the camera 24/7. The crew has no obsession with scenes that have nothing to do with the program's theme and activities, and most of them will give the contestants some private time intermittently.
Yin Lian wants to make some small moves in private, and there are plenty of opportunities.
In contrast, the algae and his companions stayed together in the human base. Since they were the only ones of the same race around them, they must have paid a lot of attention to each other, and it was naturally easy to detect abnormalities in his behavior. After his companion noticed this, he immediately became interested and came to talk to Yin Lian.
Yin Lian was very curious about the mermaid tribe, so she didn't refuse when they came to her. Zaosheng was actually a little unhappy with his companion's behavior, but he didn't show it.
Yin Lian asked the other party many things about the deep sea world, and the other party also asked some things about the land world. Yin Lian could easily spot the difference in focus between her and Zaosheng.
In addition, she also learned a lot of gossip about mermaid society.
Only then did she realize that mermaid society is a kind of female-dominated society. Although it is said to be a heroine-like society, it actually has nothing in common with the fictional society of heroines that Yin Lian has seen, and is even somewhat different in nature.
In a normal female-dominated imaginary society, the general core is that women have a higher social status.
But in mermaid society, it is not that one gender has a higher social status, but that when a mermaid is of this gender, she will have a higher social status - including but not limited to having more resources, more powerful viability, and a social attitude of being more respected and cared for.
Yin Lian tentatively asked a question that might offend them: "Are you born from eggs?"
The mermaid thought about this word, and asked Yin Lian to understand the definition of oviparous, and then gave a positive answer: "It should be regarded as oviparous, but maybe it is a little different from the oviparous you mentioned."
The algal companion has a much louder mouth than expected. So on the third day, when Yin Lian came, he found that the base was surrounded by a large number of mermaids, visiting each other with humans.
Both parties looked at each other as if they were looking at a diorama, with their heads together and talking. The scene was really joyful.
When Yin Lian appeared, the mermaid seemed to recognize her and began to whisper to her companions. Then a group of mermaids immediately surrounded her, trying to see her from the area closest to Yin Lian on the outside of the glass passage.
The sight was so obvious that it quickly attracted the researcher's attention.
The mermaids spoke one after another, and their voices were like the melody of music. They asked Yin Lian: "Are you the girl who learned our language?"
The researcher spent a lot of time translating the meaning of this sentence. After translating it, his mouth widened and he looked up at Yin Lian in shock. He even suspected that he had translated it wrong.
It was not that Yin Lian had not anticipated the possibility of exposure, but when it actually happened, he frowned for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed about what he had to deal with next.
As a result, after the audience in the live broadcast received this information, the Internet almost exploded.
"Learned the mermaid language? Are you kidding? She has only been in contact with mermaids for a few days?"
"Is it true that someone can learn a language in a few days? It's impossible, right? Are you just showing off?"
"Can the mermaid accompany her to perform a show?"
"Maybe the mermaid didn't mean it at all?"
There was a lot of discussion in the live broadcast room, and most of the people present were watching Yin Lian. The mermaid was even waiting for Yin Lian's reply. Yin Lian only hesitated for a few seconds before making a decision.
She made a mermaid-like voice and said, "I know it a little bit, I'm still learning."
Then she said to the researcher and others: "I learned a little bit of the mermaid language." When she confessed this, both in reality and in the live broadcast room, there was an uproar.
In fact, if she just said that, most people would still be suspicious. But she did engage in communicative behavior similar to conversation with the mermaid, and the sounds she made were very realistic.
However, this was the first time that everyone heard a mermaid-like voice so clearly. Previously, between the sea water and the glass wall, everyone could only hear faint sounds.
Both the live broadcast room and the base were silent for a while, and then they started to get excited - everyone in the live broadcast room could block or close some channels, but the base felt like it was exploding.
The previous researcher was even more excited and said, "You learned their language? How did you learn it? Do you know what this word means?"
He drew a string of characters on the spot for Yin Lian.
Yin Lian: "..."
As it turned out, the mermaid outside the glass wall had pretty good eyesight. He actually saw the characters and said, "Diamus - the eyes of the sea."

Something happened today, sorry for the late update. I'm in a bad mood, please don't be angry with me.
