Celestial Mage

Chapter 367 Is a Human, Not a Fish (23)
The blue sea.

The mermaid seems interested in painting.

After being silent for more than ten seconds, she pointed to a small oval reef with a diameter of several hundred meters to the east: "Go over there and talk about it in detail."

Rosen was still a little guilty, looking at Afu: "Will there be a safety issue?"

Afu shook her head: "Don't worry, the two of us, she dare not do anything."

In this case, Rosen drove Sky [-] to the small island and reef, and slowly docked on it.

After a while, Rosen, Afu, and Emilia stood on the reef. After waiting for a while, there was the sound of crashing waves from the sea, and a group of gushing waves carried the mermaid lord to the reef.

When you get close, you can see that the upper body of this mermaid is indeed no different from that of a human.

She has thick, dark blue long hair shining with pearly luster, and a pair of beautiful eyes as blue as the sea, as if filled with dreams.

Its upper body is wearing a latex-like translucent clothing, which should be sewn from some kind of fish skin, and its shape is like a human waistless waistcoat.

She wore a short skirt of the same material on her lower body, which barely covered her plump crotch. Many shining pearls were sewn on the fish skin, which looked very beautiful.

There is a lot of exposed skin, the color is white and crystal clear, the texture is a bit like jelly, and there is a delicate and lovely belly button on its waist.

Upon seeing the navel, a thought flashed in Rosen's mind.

"Hmm~ It's viviparous, so it's a mammal. The thing on the chest should not be a decoration."

And as long as they are mammals, the blood relationship between the two parties is not too far away, and the physical gap is not too large. There will be many common topics and many synaesthesias.

This has laid a good foundation for the transaction between the two parties.

From this point of view, this is a human being, not a fish.

It should not be called a mermaid, but a fish mermaid.

After the mermaid lord stood still, Rosen, as the only mortal present, bowed and saluted.

"The honorable and beautiful lord of the sea, Rosen Philander, the god-given earl of Moby Whale Island, salutes you. I also ask for your name."

The mermaid lord also nodded slightly at Rosen: "My name is Fischer."

She looked at Afu and Emilia again: "What do you call them?"

"Alfroya."

"Emilia."

After they each reported their names, the mermaid lord Fischel got straight to the point.

"I've heard of landman's paintings, and I like them quite a bit, but these paintings are ruined when soaked in water, and they can't be preserved for a long time in a humid place."

Rosen immediately said: "I don't think this is a problem, and the problem can be solved with magic."

"In addition, we land people do not only have paintings, but also all kinds of exquisite jewelry, rust-resistant metal utensils, and delicious spices and drinks that are absolutely not found in the ocean."

Fischer was really interested: "Can metals resist rust in seawater?"

"Yes, there are many anti-rust methods to ensure that there will be no rust after being soaked in seawater for decades."

"That's nice."

After a simple praise, her topic returned to painting.

"I once picked up a very beautiful oil painting near the wrecked ship. The main character in the painting is a woman with a coquettish appearance and dissolute behavior, but she is also very beautiful. It left a very deep impression on me."

Upon hearing this, Alfroya pointed at Rosen and said, "That's a coincidence, this mortal lord happens to be a master of pornography."

Rosen coughed lightly in embarrassment, and corrected him earnestly.

"To be precise, I am a master of painting. It's just that pornographic paintings are more profitable, so I painted more."

Lord Fischer was very interested: "To be called a master by an extraordinary person, you must have extraordinary skills. You can draw a picture for me to see, and if I am satisfied, I can start a transaction."

Since this is the case, Rosen will naturally show his skills.

There are no painting tools at hand, but a true master can draw with just a charcoal pencil, and even use spells to paint.

After thinking for a while, he said, "If Lord Fischer doesn't mind, I can carve a sketch for you on the rock surface of the island."

"Ha~ Interesting, let's engrave it then."

She grew up so big, and it was the first time someone drew a picture of her.

Rosen said: "Lord, I need to observe you carefully to find a suitable angle for painting, so please relax."

Fischer nodded: "Just watch."

The other party is just a mortal, nothing can threaten her, and she doesn't care about the other party's observation.

So, Rosen walked around Fischel, and then used the flying technique to fly up, down, left, and right to look around, and came to a conclusion.

"This mermaid doesn't look bad. Ignoring the tail, she is a great beauty."

"The figure is very good. From the back, ignoring the fishtail, it looks like an OL girl wearing a narrow office skirt from another world."

He quickly chose a good angle, then picked up a stone, and shaped it into a stone brush.

Then release an invincible force on the brush to enhance its sharpness, and then find a flat rock wall to start printing.

'Swipe, swipe~~'

While the blade was jumping, clusters of stone dust fell, and about a quarter of an hour later, a mural 1 meter wide and 2 meters long appeared on the rock wall, which was exactly Fischel standing on the gushing waves.

After the painting was finished, the three women stood in front of the mural and watched it.

Afu said, "Lawson, draw some pictures for me when you get back."

Emilia responded immediately: "The drawing is really good, I want a few more."

Fischer's eyes were also bright, and after a few minutes of admiring the mural, he felt that he was very energetic and beautiful in the painting, and also had a mysterious and powerful temperament.

It looks so much better than when I look in the mirror.

But after all, it is just a mural, and it cannot be removed without digging, and the fineness is not enough.

There was a look of satisfaction and regret on her face.

"It is indeed very good, and the lord's painting skills are indeed worthy of the title of master. Then, let's open a trading post by the sea."

"You can exchange it with paintings, and I will give you some pearls."

"What about the price~ How about a waterproof painting and a golden pearl?"

Rosen was dissatisfied, because this small deal was of no use to him. His biggest strategic goal was to use the archipelago to raise fish and become the back granary of Beluga Island.

So, he thought about it: "Lord Fischer, can you expand the scale of the transaction?"

"Oh, how big do you want to open?"

"One million dila a year of fish, is it okay?"

Fischer was slightly shocked: "Do you want to eat so many fish?"

"Actually, I want more, and after my observation, I found that your territory can easily raise so many fish."

"Of course, fish have to eat, such as grass, but we have a lot of grass on land."

Fischer understood, and his face sank slightly, with displeasure on his face.

"So, you want me to help you raise fish?!"

Rosen shook his head quickly: "No, no, it's a fair trade."

"Our land will also try our best to provide you with what you need. As long as you ask for it, our land people will do our best to meet it."

"And if one day, an irresistible giant breaks in, we land people will fight side by side with you."

Having said that, the anger on Fischer's face lightened slightly.

"I can't promise you for the time being, because I don't know what good things you can bring me."

"Well, let's both go back and write a list, see what each of us needs, and expand the deal as much as possible, okay?"

Rosen nodded immediately: "Of course! But how can I contact you?"

After thinking for a while, Fischer took a pearl from his skirt and handed it to Rosen.

"This is the mana pearl. As long as you come to this island and pour your mana into it, I can feel it and rush over to see you."

"understood."

This is a key strategy that determines whether Beluga Island can resist the blockade of mainland resources, and it is very important.

Rosen decided to prepare well when he went back, draw up a list, and expand the scale of the transaction as much as possible.

After that, the three boarded the plane and returned to Beluga Island.

On the plane, Emilia whispered a message.

"The mermaids here don't know. But the mermaids on the Gods Continent like to eat barbecue, especially like it. Especially grilled lamb chops."

Rosen's heart skipped a beat when he heard it, and he immediately believed it [-]% of the time.

He had carefully observed the other person's mouth just now, no matter the shape or the teeth, they were not much different from human beings, and the other person was also viviparous and breastfed, so the taste must be similar to that of human beings.

But there is no way to light a fire in the sea, so the daily food is mainly raw, and generally fish is the main food, which is definitely far less sweet and delicious than barbecue steak.

Afu also found it interesting, so she asked, "Describe, how much do you like to eat?"

"There are many poor and ugly bachelors who can't find wives in the Gods Continent. They will use barbecue to lure mermaids, and then get a chance to have fun."

Afu was startled: "Is it worth it for one bite?"

Looking at Fischer's appearance, she would be an extremely beautiful woman in the mainland. With a poor, ugly, and definitely dirty bachelor, it feels like a little white sheep being bullied by a wild boar.

Emilia smiled lightly: "Don't be fooled by Fischer's good looks, and think that mermaids are all beauties, and there are also many ugly ones."

It turned out to be the case.

Rosen said, "Then next time, I'll bring barbecue to lure Fischel. With luck, it might increase my bargaining chips."

After speaking, I saw Afu looked at him with weird eyes.

Rosen was taken aback, then thought of something, and hurriedly explained: "Afu, what are you thinking?!"

Afu spread her hands: "I didn't think about anything, it was you who were thinking about it."

"How do you know what I'm thinking?"

"Because I can see some of your thoughts."

"But I didn't even think about it just now."

Emilia was very confused: "I said what kind of charades are you two playing? Why can't I understand it?"

Afu coughed lightly, ended the slightly awkward topic, and said, "It's nothing, it's just a private topic."

Then he added: "Liya, when you learn logic spells with Rosen, you should keep a distance from Rosen."

"why?"

"You'll know."

Rosen felt embarrassed and immediately changed the subject: "Then will you come with me next time?"

Afu nodded without hesitation: "Of course."

Emilia shook her head: "No need, the mermaid has a very straightforward personality. Love is love, and hate is hate. If she is willing to come out to see you, she won't take the initiative to attack you."

"And if you show unnecessary vigilance, it will cause rejection from the other party."

Rosen was still a little worried: "I'm afraid that the mermaids here are different from those in the Gods Continent."

Emilia smiled and said, "Pure water tells me, it's the same."

Afu is not as confident as Emilia. After thinking about it, she said to Rosen: "The distance is not far anyway, if it is really dangerous, just call me in your heart."

Rosen was completely relieved: "Thank you, Afu."
