Infinitely Criticizing the Villain for Being Like My Ex-Boyfriend

Chapter 281 The Mermaid King's Treasure 4

There is a layer of transparent flesh membrane between the blonde mermaid's slender fingers, which changes into gorgeous colors depending on the dim light around it.

Zhang Chunliang watched the mermaid put her hand on his feet, and kept uttering seductive human language in her throat: "Want to play a game with me? Pretty little guy, I will definitely make you have a happy, joyful, and unforgettable time."

The mermaid spoke this passage very fluently. It must have deceived many ignorant humans before.

Just imagine, on a ship whose gimmick is to explore for mermaid treasure, how could anyone not want to have a wonderful encounter with the legendary mysterious and noble mermaid?

What's more, this guy's appearance is very consistent with human aesthetics.

Zhang Chunliang took a deep breath, raised his foot and stepped hard on the mermaid's restless hand, then used the force to run to the wide open right side.

He observed that it was probably a storage area with many discarded tools that could help him keep the mermaids away.

He probably ran hundreds of meters in one breath before turning his head to look back - he saw the mermaid supporting her arms and crawling towards him at a speed no less than that of a human running, and her blue tail was swimming quickly on the ground like a python.

This scene was so horrifying that Zhang Chunliang couldn't help but gasp. He looked around and overturned the iron frame on one side.

However, the iron frame was simply unable to withstand the aggressive mermaid. It twisted the iron frame into a dough like twisting a towel, then raised its head and looked at Zhang Chunliang in the distance with a complaining look: "My hand hurts, you have to compensate me..."

Zhang Chunliang didn't have time to pay attention to him. He looked at an external iron staircase opposite the pool. The staircase led directly to an open exhibition stand on the second floor. Next to the exhibition stand was a slightly open wooden door, emitting a faint light from inside.

However, the staircase was very narrow and could only accommodate one person, and there was no room for a second person to walk side by side.

Zhang Chunliang gritted his teeth and dragged his tired body around the incredibly large pool with the blonde mermaid. The mermaid was so agile that she almost touched his trouser legs several times.

Zhang Chunliang struggled with it for more than half an hour, and finally found an opportunity and rushed up the stairs.

However, before he could climb up two steps, his ankle was pulled by a huge force.

“You’ve taken the bait~” the blonde mermaid smiled comfortably.

It was almost going crazy with boredom here. It had caught a rare and lively little fish, so it naturally didn't want to destroy it all at once. So it tried its best to cooperate with Zhang Chunliang's game of chase and escape, and happily enjoyed the child's desperate expression.

However, on the open ground, the child was as agile as the most annoying little striped fish in the sea, and it was impossible to catch him, which made it a little annoyed.

So it deliberately exposed its flaws, trapping the little human with nowhere to escape on the narrow stairs.

"The game is fun, baby." The mermaid's tail climbed on the steps and tapped them gently, "But you can't go up there~"

Zhang Chunliang tried to pull his feet out of the mermaid's claws, but failed.

But his expression was not discouraged. He just raised his eyes and looked calmly at the mermaid in front of him.

The blonde mermaid looked at the abnormal appearance of the human and tilted her head in confusion: "Why aren't you afraid of me?"

The moment it tilted its head, it showed an undisguised innocence and naivety. At that moment, Zhang Chunliang felt that the mermaid in front of him was not like a human being. Instead, it was more like some kind of ignorant beast full of hunting instincts.

Zhang Chunliang raised the corners of his lips and tilted his head like a mermaid: "You've taken the bait~"

Seeing the cunning expression on the human's face, the mermaid's eyes widened. It unconsciously loosened its grip, wanting to change to a more convenient position to capture and control the human.

However, it couldn't move its tail at all.

"Have you ever eaten bubble gum?" Zhang Chunliang asked in a low voice, "Oh, yes, seafood like you probably haven't eaten human snacks. Bubble gum is very sticky, and it's hard to get rid of it once you get stuck."

Zhang Chunliang naturally knew that he could not escape its prey even if he ran upstairs - after all, this guy was a fish that could lay eggs on the roof, so he could only find ways to control its movements.

He observed that mermaids secreted a strange mucus, which reduced friction on the ground and allowed them to run at a speed no less than that of humans.

So he deliberately led the mermaid to dry sand or dusty corners so that the mucus on its body could be absorbed as much as possible.

Then the mermaid closed the distance by taking advantage of the narrow space of the stairs, and when the opponent was not paying attention, she scattered the prop "chewed super sticky tropical fruit flavored bubble gum" on the ground.

Sure enough, the mermaid's dry tail was stuck tightly to the bubble gum and could no longer move.

After trying several times without success, it was obviously a little annoyed, so it raised its head and stared fiercely at Zhang Chunliang who took the opportunity to escape to the top of the stairs.

A strange vapor began to emanate from the mermaid's body, and its tail began to become wet again.

"I'm almost free... Don't, don't let me catch you, you nasty little fish...!" It lowered its voice and threatened angrily.

Zhang Chunliang shook his head. This mermaid probably had never suffered any trouble at the hands of humans, so it was a bit naive. It even tried to threaten the enemy when it was under control of others. It didn't know that this would only make its enemies more alert and ferocious.

"Brutal enemy" Zhang Chunliang took out a strange blue-black soft film from his pocket and spread it flat in the palm of his hand.

The soft film was square and had a lightning symbol painted on it.

This is a lightning tattoo made by Zhang Chunliang after absorbing a lot of props with lightning properties. His original intention was to give himself the ability to control lightning for a short period of time, but the production failed, and this tattoo sticker became a dangerous item that would electrocute anyone who puts it on.

To some extent, it can also be considered an attack prop, but the conditions for its use are very harsh and one must be very close to the enemy.

The mermaid quickly broke free from the shackles of bubble gum, and it stood up and pounced on the weak human - strangely, the human did not dodge in panic, but used the inertia of its movement to press some soft and cool paper against its chest.

Before it could react, an invisible and intense pain spread from its heart throughout its entire body.

The blonde mermaid stiffened all over, then fell backwards and landed heavily on the ground in front of the stairs.

It struggled and twisted wildly on the ground, and its beautiful fish tail was stretched into an amazing arc.

The mermaid seemed to understand that the culprit was the tattoo, so she began to scratch her chest frantically with her sharp claws, trying to tear off the tattoo, but she failed - even if she tore the skin and flesh, the tattoo seemed to be imprinted in her flesh and bones and could not be removed.

This tattoo sticker can only last for a maximum of two minutes, after which all effects will disappear. However, within these two minutes, no matter what means are used, the effects of the tattoo cannot be removed.

It was so painful that the blood in the mermaid's body seemed to boil, as if it was swallowed by the black-toothed whale and digested. Every inch of its skin was in excruciating pain.

Its huge fish tail hit the ground and everything around it frantically. The flimsy iron stairs were swept by its tail and almost broke in the middle.

Zhang Chunliang steadied himself and quickly climbed to the exhibition stand on the second floor.

This tattoo contains concentrated lightning energy. If it were an ordinary NPC, it would probably explode and die on the spot.

If he didn't really want to be disemboweled by the mermaids and used as a baby petri dish, he wouldn't have used this tattoo so easily. After all, this thing requires a lot of props to make and is also very dangerous. Even if it is a failed product, he only has two.

He glanced downstairs and saw that the blonde mermaid's tail was mottled and bloody, with blue blood all over the ground and broken scales everywhere.

It was twitching in pain and had lost the strength to struggle.

After being stiff for a moment, it suddenly stretched out its claws with all its strength, dug small pits on the concrete floor, and moved its body towards the pool water.

Zhang Chunliang's face changed, and he tried to stop her, "I advise you not to go into the water - after all..."

Bright blue blood flowed from the mermaid's ear holes. She could not hear any sound. The severe pain had already worn away her will. She now only wanted to hide back in her nest to seek a sense of security.

"Plop——" it fell heavily into the water.

Then, the blue-green water surface suddenly boiled and exploded, and purple spider web patterns appeared.

This spectacular and wonderful scene was very short-lived, lasting less than a second before disappearing.

Before Zhang Chunliang could react, he felt a strange sound wave -

He couldn't hear any sound, but he was sure that something was screaming in despair and pain. The sound waves penetrated the entire giant swimming pool, causing his work clothes to flutter without wind and his entire chest to begin to ache.

Zhang Chunliang moved his body, only to feel his muscles all over become numb and painful, and he could only kneel weakly on the ground.

He held onto the railing on the second floor with difficulty, gasping violently, his entire nostril filled with the smell of blood.

It turns out that this mermaid not only has a strong body, but also a voice that can be called a sonic weapon.

Perhaps because it underestimated the enemy, it was never used against Zhang Chunliang.

"Click——"

In the unspeakable depression, Zhang Chunliang suddenly heard a sound like an eggshell breaking. The sound was very clear and very close.

He turned his head with difficulty and looked towards the place where the sound came from.

——It was the small wooden door that was glowing five meters behind him.

The blonde mermaid in the pool had stopped struggling. It lay motionless, half floating on the water, without making any sound.

In this dead silent space, any sound could be keenly captured - a rough sound like a reptile rubbing on the ground, coming from behind the wooden door. The sound was clumsy and labored, but it made people feel creepy.

"Squeak--" The slightly open door was pushed open from the inside.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Chunliang saw a nearly three-meter-long skeleton slowly crawling out from behind the door. It was a skeleton with a human-shaped upper body and a fish-shaped lower body.

"No way..." He touched his pocket uncertainly and muttered, "Does lightning work on bones?"
