Quick Wear: Host, are you playing here?

At the auction that day, Collide didn't care.

The IQ and learning ability of the mermaids are not low. As someone who has handled this kind of business at sea, Collide knows it very well. Among these mermaids raised by nobles, the most they are taught is how to speak, communicate, and learn etiquette.

Apart from anything else, looking at the actions of the male mermaid, it doesn't seem like he is learning passively.

Baseles walked straight up to the two of them, stepped around Collide, and placed a plate of unknown objects in his hand in front of Hua Xia.

There is porridge in the bowl and fried beef on the plate.

Hua Xia blinked.

Barcellus said silently: "Try it."

Hua Xia blinked again. With the accumulation of time, Baseiles' cooking skills have evolved to the point where the food can be presented. Although the color looks tempting, it is actually not cooked at all.

The porridge was also a mixture of raw and cooked ingredients.

Hua Xia coughed twice and looked at Colider: "Mr. Colider, you are a guest. This is specially made for you by the chef at home. Let's talk after we eat."

She winked at the housekeeper, who called for the meal to be delivered.

Collide had a weird expression and a strange look in his eyes.

"My Lord Earl took this mermaid back to be his chef?"

Hua Xia nodded without any guilt: "Well, you can eat it, it's delicious."

Basiles understood and showed dissatisfaction: "He doesn't deserve it!"

Hua Xia didn't even raise her head: "He deserves it, he deserves it, no one deserves it more than him."

Barcelles was unhappy.

He reached out to take the tray away.

Hua Xia hurriedly held him down: "Feed him. He has a strong vitality. He is a pirate who has been exposed to the wind and sun on the sea all day long. He has a strong body and cannot be killed by poison."

Coliide: “???”

He suspected that he had heard wrongly.

This man and this fish were discussing poisoning him right in front of him???

Obviously not, Collide realized that the Earl himself didn't want to eat it, and probably pushed it to him because it was not tasty.

Colide didn't move and continued with the previous topic. He just wanted to finish his conversation as soon as possible and leave this place of trouble!

"The flower that the Earl auctioned off is a sign. According to the information I received, the mermaid king sleeping under the deep sea is waking up. The legend is not false. With the blooming of the blue sea of ​​flowers, the mermaid king will wake up."

"It is a deep-sea monster with strange powers and a violent personality, and it loves killing."

"The awakening of the mermaid royal family will bring great danger to our voyage. My Lord Earl, if you travel with us, I think we need the cooperation of the power behind you."

"It's a win-win."

According to the information that Collide got from the captured mermaid, the royal family has the ability to destroy the sea.

Although we don't know what it is specifically, we only know that all creatures on the seabed will obey the orders of the mermaid royal family.

That sleeping mermaid is not only the king of the mermaids, but perhaps the king of the entire ocean.

Collide did not dare to take it lightly.

Hua Xia touched his nose and wondered what Collide would think if he knew that the sleeping mermaid king he was talking about was Baseless whom he had salvaged earlier.

Especially, he was saying in front of Baseles that he was cruel and tyrannical.

The cruel and violent Basales looked at Hua Xia: "He spread rumors!"

The blood on the ground two days ago 'Guest': "No, he didn't make up a rumor!"

Hua Xia: “….”

However, Baseleis showed signs of being angry.

Hua Xia held her forehead helplessly and stopped Barcellus's action: "Come here, I believe you."

Colide was stunned for a moment. When he saw the male mermaid take off his apron, put it back in the kitchen and then come back to sit next to Hua Xia, he realized that these words were not spoken to him.

When this male mermaid first came ashore, Collide tested it and found that its level was not high, which means that its combat power was not that high.

However, this does not mean that he is safe.

Adult male mermaids have extremely high hunting abilities in the group, and they exude danger from head to toe.

At least more dangerous than any adult human, extremely feral and usually difficult to tame.

It would never be as 'well-behaved' and obedient as it is now, well-behaved, and even approach humans with a friendly attitude.

Collider was a little surprised: "My Lord Earl, you have trained this mermaid very well."

Hua Xia did not deny it and smiled.

Collider turned his gaze away from the mermaid and made a guess: "Is that the one who supports the Charlotte family?"

This is a dumb riddle...

Hua Xia nodded seriously.

Collider showed a look of astonishment: "The king is seriously ill and yet he can still distract himself. It seems that he will not allow the Charlotte family to perish in front of him."

Hua Xia: “….”

king.......

how is this possible.

However, among the forces that came a few days ago, except for the king's, all others have come, so they are ruled out as suspects.

Collide narrowed his eyes slightly. Seeking cooperation with the king was a joke.

But he can cooperate with the Count.

Collider said, "It seems that the Earl is still hiding something from the King. In this case, we should continue to keep our voyage a secret."

Collide left the manor as if he had gained something, but in fact he had gained nothing.

Hua Xia looked at the "food" on the table that was almost cold, and guessed that the reason why Collide ran so fast was that he didn't want to stay for lunch.

How can you question the cooking skills of Chef Yu who has been busy all day?

Hua Xia picked up the takeaway and started eating.

housekeeper:"......"

After leaving the manor, Collide did not stay in the capital for long, but left the city and headed for the coast.

By the evening, when the sky was getting dark, the car was just approaching the coastal area.

The road became empty and quiet, with only a few passing cars along the way.

Collide sat in the back seat and thought about how to maximize his own interests in this treasure hunt.

The car, which was driving smoothly on the road, suddenly braked sharply and turned into the grass next to it, and the front of the car directly hit a roadside tree.

After the violent shaking, Collide managed to steady himself. After the car stopped, he looked at the driver in the driver's seat, frowned and was about to ask about the situation, but found that the person in the driver's seat had fainted.

Collide got out of the car, opened the driver's door, and checked the man's breathing. He was still alive.

Knocked unconscious?

Currid cursed, stood up and looked around, but saw no one except the empty road.

He took out his cell phone from his pocket irritably, ready to contact someone. When he turned around, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a tall figure standing in the grass next to him.

"what?"

Collide took a step back, and in the dim light of the faint glow in the sky, he could clearly see the dark shadow in the grass.

She had a tall figure and her clothes were straight, and she was no longer the naive girl in the pink apron that was seen in the manor.

It's that mermaid!

Instead of feeling relieved because he knew him, Collider felt his hair stand on end and was terrified.

You know, after he left the manor, he drove back directly, and now he is thousands of kilometers away from the manor.

There was no vehicle following behind, so how did this mermaid appear here?

"you......"

Colide was extremely shocked. He sensed the threat of death from this adult male mermaid.
