How come this mage can fight better than a warrior?

After Shen Yuting and Long Dong finished their meal, they quickly left the hotel. They strolled in the Ocean City, enjoying a leisurely time. According to the instructions of the Canghaitu, the two walked along a specific route while also appreciating the surrounding scenery.

As he walked, Long Dong was surprised to find the legendary mermaids on both sides of the street.

It was the first time for both him and Shen Yuting to see this mysterious creature. Mermaids are just as the rumors say, with a human upper body and a fish tail in the lower body. They are extremely beautiful.

Long Dong curiously walked into a shop that seemed to sell conch shells. He carefully observed these exquisite conch shells and thought that he might pick a few as gifts for his brothers and sisters. Just as he was about to choose, the mermaid waiter came over enthusiastically and introduced the store's products to him.

It turns out that these conch shells are not ordinary souvenirs, but a special musical prop called "conch shell sound". It has the function of collecting and diffusing sounds, and can record people's words or songs and play them through the conch shell. The mermaid waiter skillfully picked up a conch shell sound and showed Long Dong how to use it.

She blew the conch shell gently, then put it to her ear and listened. Beautiful music came out of the conch shell, as if it was a melody coming from the depths of the sea.

Long Dong was deeply attracted by this magical musical prop. He decided to buy some conch sounds, which could not only bring novel experiences to his family, but also let them feel the unique charm of marine culture.

The mermaid attendant sang a short song. The conch shell recorded it directly and was able to play it repeatedly.

Long Dong and Shen Yuting bought one each. Shen Yuting bought it as a souvenir. Long Dong planned to give it to his younger brother and sister as a New Year gift.

Long Dong walked to the front desk, put the items he bought on the counter, and took out a few gold coins from his pocket to pay the bill. However, when he looked up, he saw the mermaid waitress sitting there sighing and looking worried.

Long Dong couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's wrong? Did we buy too little?"

The mermaid waitress raised her head, with a hint of helplessness and sadness in her eyes. She sighed softly and said, "You are from another place. Alas, our mermaid princess will marry the new sea king in a few days."

Long Dong's heart moved, and he asked doubtfully: "Marrying your sweetheart? Isn't that a good thing?"

The mermaid waiter shook her head, with a hint of disdain and anger in her tone: "It's the newly crowned Sea King. Not the one the princess likes. This new Sea King is not worthy of being the Sea King! If he wasn't a direct relative of the old Sea King, how could he have ascended the throne?"

Hearing this, Long Dong couldn't help but frown. It turned out that this new Sea King didn't get to the top by his own strength, but by his connections. This made him feel a little disgusted with this new Sea King.

At this time, the other mermaid waiters gathered around, and they all looked dissatisfied after hearing what the front desk waiter said. Some mermaids even began to complain in a low voice, expressing their dissatisfaction with the new Sea King.

Long Dong quietly observed these mermaids, thinking to himself: It seems that this new sea king is not popular among the mermaids, but what is the reason?

Long Dong asked curiously, "What's wrong with the new Sea King? You all don't seem to like him very much."

A mermaid said indignantly: "Humph, that guy, not only is he weak, but he's also extremely lustful!"

Another mermaid continued: "Yeah, how can a man like him be the Sea King? Even I look down on him!"

Another mermaid gnashed her teeth and cursed: "This kind of person is a disgrace to our ocean race!"

Long Dong frowned and asked in confusion: "If that's the case, why did the mermaid princess choose him as her partner?"

The mermaids shook their heads and sighed, with expressions of helplessness and anger on their faces.

An older mermaid sighed and said, "Who knows? Maybe I was deceived by his sweet words..."

The other mermaid clenched her fists and said angrily, "I really don't know what the princess was thinking. She would actually fall for such a piece of trash!"

Long Dong nodded thoughtfully, and couldn't help but have more questions about this mysterious new Sea King. He decided to find an opportunity to investigate and see what kind of person this new Sea King is.

Long Dong and Shen Yuting understood what they heard. However, they dared not make comments. After all, Long Dong came to ask the Sea King Clan to find the Happy Aquamarine Crystal. It would be bad for Long Dong to talk about others behind their backs.

Long Dong indirectly asked the mermaid waitress about the news of the Joyful Aquamarine. Just as the God of Ice and Snow said, the Joyful Aquamarine was the unique treasure of the Sea King family.

The mermaid waitress looked at Long Dong with some confusion: "Are you looking for Huanyi Aquamarine?"

Long Dong nodded. Long Dong asked, "Does the Joy Aquamarine have the effect of detoxification?"

Mermaid waiter: "I'm not sure about that. However, as a treasure unique to the Sea King family, its ability must be extraordinary."

Long Dong and Shen Yuting said goodbye to the mermaids and left the store.

As they walked, it was getting dark. Before they knew it, Long Dong and Shen Yuting had arrived near the palace where the Sea King was. Long Dong stood on a high place and looked at the Sea King's palace.

The palace of the Sea King is larger and more magnificent than the Ice Castle of the Ice God. The palace is brightly lit. Under the light, the palace looks magnificent.

The palace covers a huge area. Various buildings are arranged in an orderly manner. This palace shows the former glory and honor of the Sea King family. This palace was built by the Sea King who became a god.

The place where the gods once lived is unique. It can be seen that the materials used to build the palace are all extraordinary. Long Dong guessed that this is also the reason why the palace has existed for so long.

It was already dark. Long Dong decided to find a way to meet the Sea King the next day to seek Huan Yi Hai Lan Jing. After all, it was so late, and only a brainless person could go to the Sea King.

Long Dong and Shen Yuting found a hotel with luxurious decoration. This hotel can provide land-based meals and rooms with land-like environment. Long Dong and Shen Yuting are not used to the meals of marine life.

Let alone other things, just the fruit that looked like an apple made Long Dong suffer. If Long Dong hadn't had an idea to use the Tianjiao Hammer to smash it open and eat it, Long Dong wouldn't even be able to eat the flesh inside.
