Language is not something that can be learned overnight, and appearance is often a talent that cannot be changed in a lifetime.
For humans, this is usually the case.
Although this is the first encounter between the human race and the Kuran tribe, there are still some flaws in fairness and justice.
The information that can be obtained directly is very different. A female Kuran who sees various tools, ships, artificial water tanks, and clothing of special materials can immediately realize that the person who captured her is not a beast, but another intelligent civilized group; but when she is completely unable to When communicating with each other and having never seen such a strange existence, the fishermen naturally had no way of realizing this fact.
He can't even tell the difference between magic and magic. You know that this situation is not unusual.
So the fisherman immediately reported the incident to the local inspector.
The news spread layer by layer, and a few days later, the Kuran female who had changed most of the changes in the water tank was sent to the royal capital.
At that time, what was in power on the east side of the Iverson Continent was not the current Kingdom of Denton, but an unknown small country. The land area was only the size of the five or six cities of the Kingdom of Denton today, and the capital was located near the inland river.
The Kuran people feel that they are getting farther and farther away from home, and naturally they are extremely frightened.
But her body was completely shrouded in darkness, and she could not see any changes in the outside world at all, because the perspective analysis ability accompanying her talent could only target living organisms, and had no ability to penetrate new water tanks and black curtains.
At least, she could vaguely hear some particularly strange sounds.
Like babble, like sighing - from this point on, the only channel of information is the records heard from the mouths of the mermaid tribe.
This female of the Kuran tribe is the original ancestor of the mermaid tribe, and the first Kuran tribe to transform into a mermaid.
She has a well-known and beautiful name, which is also the name of the mermaid princess for generations to come, a symbol of ultimate beauty.
"Ariel".
After insisting until this point, Mo Gan paused.
Because someone interrupted him.
"I just imitated a few girls from fishermen's families, and then I became the stunning beauty of Starry Sea that has attracted countless tourists for hundreds of years. Why don't I believe it so much? Brother, you said so much, are you making it up? Are you just making things up and trying to bluff me?"
The middle-aged man spoke again.
This time he changed the fishing gear from his left hand to his right hand, and he was probably tired of holding it. Mo Gan was actually tired from talking, not because his mouth was dry, but because of this unknown person who had just been temporarily deprived of his "repeat customer" qualifications.
After all, although the remuneration is generous, even Mo Gan will have to shed his skin if he earns this money again.
Although he knew that this person was supporting him now to make the lie that he had integrated into it more reasonable, Mogan felt that this expression was really unfair, the jump was really hard, and it really didn't fit what this picture should be. A rather mature face of a middle-aged uncle - taking these circumstances together, Mogan became more and more certain that such an appearance was definitely not the person's true appearance.
It is absolutely impossible for someone to show their face and pretend to have money but no place to spend it, a stupid rich businessman who is bluffing around here, crazy and embarrassing.
At least this person won't be like this - it's not his own face, of course he can throw it away casually.
"The appearance of the mermaid's beauty, which is called a miracle, happened later, and it has not yet reached this point. Although it has human characteristics, the story of Ariel as a Kuran tribe is far from over, and the mermaid is still there. It’s not really formed. Don’t forget, besides being half-human and half-fish, there is one most important difference – the Kurans can change their shape and structure, but the mermaids are not like that.”
"In addition to those abilities, there is one more thing."
Morgan was surprised. Because it was no one else who spoke, but Austin, the first mate of the Blue Eagle Pirates, who was sitting where he was.
Not only did he not get angry for no reason again, he even listened and took the initiative to pick up the fight.
"Mermaids are all a group of guys who lack emotions... Maybe you can only see their faces. No wonder, after all, humans are so superficial. But in the eyes of us sharks, those guys with empty skin are really, really ridiculous."
Austin, who had rested for a long time, rested his face with his fists and now leaned lazily on the stone table. Many of the mages who had been keeping watch over him didn't bother to care about him. The chairman of the mages was the only one watching, not daring to be careless.
From the beginning, this Austin has been unremittingly making enemies of anything that can be an enemy. Fortunately, both Morgan and others are now accustomed to this situation. On the contrary, they are not so serious and can joke at will.
"Did you get woken up by the mermaid next door at home this time, so you want to go around slandering others?"
"That's right, I heard a mermaid singing while we were sailing on the boat. The melodious singing was full of emotions! I remember there was a huge octopus floating on the water, and the whole fish was stunned by the song. . If our captain hadn’t told us to pinch ourselves all the time and wear earplugs so we could only listen a little, I would have been so beautiful on the spot..."
Austin glanced sharply, accurately found the confidant in the crowd, and gave him a hard look.
"That's a natural ability! Don't tell me your captain didn't tell you. They all do things with money. Who invests in you emotionally?"
Using money to do things is not a good thing.
After all, I am also using money to do things, and I am both reliable and unreliable; I am worry-free, but I am not worry-free.
The atmosphere has been heightened to this point, and it would be impolite not to finish the matter.
"Ariel has mastered the ability to breathe on land, but knows almost nothing about the land world. It is too difficult to grow legs in this situation. She hopes to find water by herself and escape with the fish's tail - in her concept Among them, the continent moving on the plane may be the haven of another civilization, and the ocean connecting everything should be the main body..."
The journey took a few days, perhaps to ensure that the unknown creature could survive to the end. The humans responsible for the transportation often opened the black cloth coverings to let the sunlight shine on the human-like creature.
People always feel that creatures that are not exposed to sunlight may feel unhappy. Perhaps it is because most plants in the agricultural era can only grow when exposed to sunlight. This is a long-standing habit. In fact, Ariel does not need sunlight, because the Kuran people originally lived in the depths of the sea. This kind of light not only makes her unable to adapt, but even causes an uncomfortable feeling of burning skin.
Because of this, the egg had the last bit of strength, and Ariel completely transformed her skin into a human appearance. Compared with the toned and well-proportioned coastal girl who grew up on the beach, the person she was imitating this time was someone who was born in the capital. , thin skin and tender flesh, the scholar who has been trying to observe her.
After that, Ariel, who gained power from the ocean, could not actively transform.
Until she arrived in the capital, she was immediately sent to the king to check the situation.
Of course, none of the specially assigned scholars could come up with any clues, and His Majesty the King naturally could only hunt for a curiosity and listen to the news.
At this time, a great mage who came from afar and was said to be from another country was beside the king.
He saw the truth at a glance and spoke - or rather, he told part of the truth.
"This is a sea creature with magical plasticity, containing an extremely strange and ancient magical power. Your Majesty the King, if you don't mind my research and investigation, I can help you shape her into whatever you want. .”
The most surprising thing is that the subsequent tracing and records stop here, jumping directly to three years later.
When reading this breakpoint, Mogan also felt that the situation was a bit subtle.
Because judging from the previous trend, the emergence of the mermaid tribe does not seem to be the result of free transformation, but purely man-made. Humans with paper and pen are best at writing the past, and word of mouth can also extend the story. Now that the emergence of mermaids has reached the mainland, someone should be able to completely preserve the record.
but it is not the truth.
After searching through the classics and finding nothing, when the scholar once again asked the mermaid tribe for confirmation, the result was still confusing.
——They said that the first Ariel did not have time to explain all the truth to them.
Mermaids have gained unparalleled beauty and the power of graceful singing, so what reason do they have to lie?
So, could it be that someone with evil intentions deliberately erased this period of history and concealed the really important part?
All in all, according to the records of the Sharman clan, the time of continuation came directly three years later.
Ariel, a member of the Kuran tribe who had been missing in the shallow ocean for three years, suddenly returned and turned into a completely different person.
