Diary of Raising a Mermaid - Chapter 98
The safe house Carl and Rose talked about surprised Lance.
What surprised Lance even more was that in the safe house, he actually saw the people he had seen a long time ago.
“Yo, Xiaoyu, long time no see.”
Standing in the safe house, the one who greeted them turned out to be a big beard.
The big guy Hu recognized Lance in the crowd at a glance. He greeted Lance. Lance saw that the big guy’s right arm was a mechanical arm. At the same time, there was a small seagull standing on the big guy’s shoulder. .
Seeing Lance, the little seagull yelled at Lance:
【buy–】
Lance took a breath.
Damn, isn’t this the seagull boss who traded with him before?
And this safe house also made Lance choked silently, because this was once the apartment of Earl Vail, the blond man who once captured Lance in the black market.
Lance recognized this place. The layout inside is exactly the same as the layout when he was sent to the black market and then caught by Earl Weir and placed in the fish tank. It hasn’t changed at all, but it may be because the owner is dead and nobody is there. After care, there is a thick layer of ash on the furniture.
Lance couldn’t help but look towards the corner of the balcony, where there was a fish tank as high as a wall before;
As a result, Lance saw only one base now, and the fish tank seemed to be broken and gone.
After thinking about it carefully, Lance finally recognized who the big guy was. He was surprised:
“Are you the assistant of that Earl Vail, Old Tang?!”
Old Tang smiled honestly.
Since the death of Earl Vale, as Earl Vale’s assistant, Lao Tang has become the leader of the black market and continues to operate the black market.
As for one of his arms was replaced with a robotic arm, it was injured in the previous high wall incident. If there is no way, he can only replace the robotic arm after amputation.
“You know this seagull… Oh, no, how did you meet?”
Lance didn’t care about the other people behind him, he pointed to the seagull on Old Tang’s shoulder in amazement.
【buy–】
The little seagull tilted its head and asked in the language of a sea monster.
【what happened to you? Don’t you like this human? But this human being is my little brother. 】
The sea monster didn’t know what Lance was surprised at. It still stupidly thought that Old Tang was its little brother, and Lance was scared when he saw strangers.
In the eyes of Little Seagull, it was not Old Tang who came to see Lance today, but it, Little Seagull, riding on his little brother and showing Lance to see the nest his little brother had found for Lance.
So, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Little Seagull thought, this human being is its little brother, and if Lance really doesn’t like it, then it will have to reluctantly fire this little brother.
“That’s a long story.”
Old Tang sighed quietly. He touched the little seagull with his thick fingers. His gentle look was like a tiger sniffing a rose. He said,
“As you can see, I’m now… making a deal with the sea monster.”
That’s it.
Lance just breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to take a breath.
He just said that the things the little seagull brought to him before are so suitable for human beings. The feelings are the package that Lao Tang has matched to the little seagull!
From this point of view, Old Tang even had a longer-term vision than his predecessor, the black market leader. The original blond man Earl Vale was only making deals between humans. Now that it’s alright, Old Tang made the deal directly on the side of the sea monster.
That’s really a global transaction.
“Hey, I know the mermaid, and I have encountered that kind of thing…”
Old Tang’s eyes began to drift, he noticed Winser behind Lance, and suddenly stopped.
Without him, it was because of the inhuman feeling on Wencer that Old Tang instantly recalled what happened in this apartment——
At that time, in order to find Earl Well, Old Tang and the army men came to the bathroom.
After that, Old Tang saw Wen Yu execute the Murloc in a semi-coma. Isn’t the coldness of Wen Yu executing the Murloc the same as the current Wen Se?
That is to say, after this incident, Old Tang’s outlook on life and values have changed. He began to think that perhaps humans should learn to get along with sea monsters.
In an instant, Old Tang’s hair was horrified.
It is obvious that Old Tang is the big man, but in front of Wencer, he felt that his momentum was greatly lowered.
In order to avoid being killed by Winser, Old Tang began to pretend to be nonchalant, slowly averted his gaze, and changed the subject:
“Oh, by the way, your suitcase is also in this room. I asked the seagull to bring it.”
Lance nodded wildly.
Obviously, the shock he received was a bit big, and it is still being digested.
…
After settled down, it was almost evening.
After a few people cleaned up the neighborhood, they began to discuss future arrangements.
To Lance’s surprise, he originally thought that Old Tang was just a landlord, but he didn’t expect that from the words of Karl and Rose, they had successfully brought the current black market boss to his side.
This burly man looks simple-minded and well-developed, but in fact he is as fine as a needle and has a long-term vision. He is worthy of being the brother and assistant of Earl Vail.
“The news inside the black market is much more informed than outside.”
Old Tang took a bite of a slice of bread while feeding the seagulls with bread crumbs. He said,
“After the high wall was broken through, the conservatives within the alliance now have the upper hand. They secretly restarted the’Wandering Project’, preparing to keep only a part of the fire and send it to the universe… the spaceship that has been shelved for many years, It started again.”
After saying this, everyone was silent.
After all, Lance was not a personal experiencer of this doomsday, he asked curiously:
“Is this plan bad? Why are you so sad?”
“This plan is actually Noah’s Ark.”
Rose looked up at Lance, her eyes sad,
“The great flood that year, Noah’s Ark… At that time, not all creatures were rescued on board.”
In the story, Noah built the ark, but because of the limited space of the ark, he only carried a pair of male and female animals for each animal to breed.
In the same way, the wandering plan can only carry some people as fire, and the rest are destined to be left behind and wait for death here.
This plan may be even more tragic than Dr. Mourin’s plan to change genes and retake the earth.
Because the earth’s resources are limited now, they are gathering the energy of the whole earth to build the ark, and after the ark is cast, only a small number of people will be sent to the ark, and then wander in the universe, facing an unknown future.
“Forget it, don’t think about such long-term things for now.”
Carl, who has always been heartless, took the lead in breaking the silence. He looked at Lance and Winser curiously and asked,
“Do you know what is going on in the league?”
Ha, I finally got to the point.
Lance and Winsor looked at each other, and then Lance said to Carl seriously:
“The origin of this thing is, uh, a bit complicated… You see, mermaids can appear in this world. Then, there is something else, it’s not that strange, right?”
Wencer lifted his eyelids, glanced at the people faintly, then propped his head with one hand, watching Lance talk nonsense with interest.
Lance naturally knew that Wencer’s things could not be talked to others at will.
He was shocked just after he knew from Wenser that the origin of the creatures in this world was related to Wenser;
He didn’t think that human beings would just accept this kind of origin theory.
What’s more, human beings are really too fragile, and Well is good at mental pollution. Lance is a bit scared. When you don’t bring people there, teammates will directly become enemies.
So, after a lot of deliberation, Lance had no choice but to say that Wencer was a kind of monster.
“Have you read Journey to the West, after the lady bone inside was killed by Monkey King, didn’t she leave a skin bag and ran away?”
Lance tried to explain the relationship between Wencer and Wen Yu in this way.
Winsor: “…”
As a result, the safe house fell silent again.
It’s just that this silence is a bit awkward.
Fortunately, everyone knows that Lance is reluctant to say it, it must be because humans cannot understand the existence of Wencer.
After Carl and Rose only need to make sure that Wencer is a metaphor, there is no objection;
And Old Tang, because he has seen murlocs and mermaids, he is still trading with Seagulls. As long as Lance and Winsor have no intention of killing him, he feels ok.
The two parties exchanged information and after confirming their respective information, under the auspices of Rose, it hit it off. It was said that after two days, they would sneak into the laboratory with Winsor and Lance, and take a look at the laboratory. What happened.
“That’s it for today.”
Rose finally made the final decision,
“Let’s take a break first. From tomorrow on, we will collect relevant information and weapons. We will enter the laboratory two days later.”
Lance nodded quickly.
But in fact, three hours later, Wan Lai was quiet. After Lance and Winsor were left in the safe house, Lance quietly prepared to sneak out through the window of his own room——
“what are you doing?”
Wencer didn’t know when he woke up. He lay on the bed, propped up his upper body, and watched Lance stepped out of the window.
Lance blinked and said:
“The moon is round tonight.”
“Ok?”
“Ok.”
Since he was caught by the party concerned, Lance simply sat directly on the window sill and said,
“I’m not going to let Karl and Rose get mixed in.”
He paused, glanced at Wencer, and quietly added:
“you too.”
“Why exclude me?”
Wencer asked, “Vail is a part of me, he is better than you.”
“If you really have a solution to Vale, why not just solve it?”
Lance pointed out this problem sharply.
“Even human beings, when faced with the deep-seated **** and darkness, few people can overcome them. Most people are dragged directly into the abyss by the **** and darkness…Winther, I’m afraid to lead you In the past, when the time came, I was afraid to deal with two Vale.”
For example, Lance thinks “this is the last bite” every time he eats something he likes.
But in fact, because he liked those things so much, every time he took a bite, he swore “this is the last bite”, bite after bite, and finally finished everything.
Poor self-control is one aspect, and too much temptation is another aspect.
In the process of coming, what happened to that island made Lance realize that someone in the alliance might have noticed Vale’s conspiracy and was trying to resist Vale.
Lance believes that in this situation, instead of completely trusting Wencer to solve Vale, it is better to find the “warrior” who tried to imprison Vale.
Perhaps human beings are too small compared to Vail, but in fact, humans are too smart. Lance believes that humans may really have a solution to Vail.
After listening to Lance’s explanation, Wincer was silent for a while, and finally he admitted:
“Perhaps you are right.”
He sat up and said to Lance:
“When I got here, I found out that I should guarantee a certain distance from Will…I can sense him, and he can sense me.”
Winser also discovered this problem after entering the league.
Within a certain distance, he and Will could feel each other’s existence.
Of course, now Wencer has tried his best to avoid being discovered, so Vir should be able to sense it at a certain moment, he didn’t know that Wencer had entered the alliance.
After entering the Alliance, Winser did not go to Vail directly with great fanfare——
Well, on the one hand, the reason was because he didn’t want to kill him in front of Lance.
After all, if you really want to kill Vail here, Wencer will definitely reveal his true body directly, and there are so many humans here, I am afraid that after Wencer reveals his true body, the entire alliance will not want to live. .
On the other hand, the reason is because Wencer is thinking.
Think about what method should be used.
Lance sighed:
“So, now I must first find the ally that exists, and then, using myself as a bait, draw Vale away, right?”
Wencer nodded honestly.
Breaking through the laboratory or something is not in Winsor’s plan at all.
Carl’s human thoughts can easily turn this “private grievance” (which may be a catastrophe for humans) into a struggle between humans.
Winsor didn’t mind the humans playing himself to death, but he minded that Weier would get involved in it.
