Chapter 45 Seaside Vacation and "First" Encounter

After Christmas, the Karl family chose the warm seaside as their vacation place.

After a few hours of flying—they had traveled almost halfway around the world—and getting everything sorted, Carl put on his shorts, stood in the warm sunshine, and enjoyed his Christmas break to the fullest.

Among the people who came to the seaside for vacation this time, apart from Charles, Raven, and Carl, were Eric's family.

Before coming, Charles made a reservation for the hotel here, and reserved this piece of beach, so as not to let others come in to disturb the vacation time of the six of them.

Of course, it is also to prevent them from being discovered by others when they use their abilities, so that they will be frightened.

Carl likes the sea, he is barefoot, stepping on the delicate sand, and there are shells left by the receding tide beside him.The oncoming wind brought the salty smell of sea water, Carl took a deep breath, and the smile on his mouth was shining brightly.

Behind Carl, there are a few parasols they brought installed, Raven and Wanda lie under two adjacent umbrellas, they share the sunscreen and whitening mask they brought, and some cold and delicious Drinks, and resolutely prevent the sun and ultraviolet rays from damaging their skin-but Karl suspects that they just want to have a sense of ritual on a beach vacation. After all, for mutants, ultraviolet rays can't do much harm at all.

This is what Pietro said when he chatted with him.

On the other side, Charles and Eric also sat under a parasol that can cover two people. They set up a low table on the beach with a chess board on it-Eric brought it on purpose. , the one they've been using.

Carl walked slowly up and down the sand, stooping to pick up some pretty shells, and other little things left by the tide, to make a bracelet for his aunt and Wanda.

Just as Karl stood up, a silver light flashed past his eyes, and the next second, Karl felt the cold and sticky feeling in his arms.

He looked down, and saw a big fish that was still wagging its tail and rolled its eyes at him, and the shell he just picked up in his hand was also stained with mucus from the fish scales, making it sticky.

Carl's expression was blank for a second before he reacted and threw the fish out fiercely!

"Pietro! Wait for me!!" He roared angrily, using super speed to chase after that hateful silver light.

Immediately, two rays of light that were almost invisible to the naked eye appeared on the beach. From one end to the other, a small wind blew on the beach.

The others were no longer surprised by this, and they all pretended not to see it, and continued to do their own things.

When the two finally calmed down, Charles and the others had already finished playing a game of chess.

Carl collapsed on the recliner, holding a large glass of coconut milk and drinking with relish. The small desserts they brought had been swept away. Carl grabbed the last piece of cookie and showed a smug smile.

Pietro made a face at him and took another piece from Wanda.

Carl snorted and bit off the cookie in his hand.

The afternoon sun was just right, and the sea breeze was so warm that it made people drowsy. After Carl experienced a wonderful dream, they should leave.

Back at the hotel, when he saw other vacationers carrying kegs to the back kitchen, Carl remembered that they had no tools at all, and all the fish and shrimp caught today were put back nautical mile.

When Carl caught the fish, he didn't think about eating it, but when he came back and saw many people doing it, he felt it was a pity.As soon as he told Pietro, the other party immediately agreed to the idea of ​​bringing back tools to load the fish tomorrow.

The six of them lived in three rooms. Ruiwen dragged Wanda into the room early, while Eric and Charles were downstairs chatting with others.

As early as when he first came here, Pietro had already visited the entire hotel, and it took him only a second.

When they returned to the room, Carl threw himself on his own bed, not wanting to move.

Under Pietro's urging, Carl took a shower as quickly as possible, changed into pajamas, and got under the covers.

They were chatting, and Carl suddenly remembered something. He winked at Pietro and asked, "You said, are there two single beds or a double bed in our father's room?"

"Hmm..." Pietro pondered for a while, thinking about this question seriously.Finally, he moved his head closer, lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being heard by others, and whispered his guess: "I think it's a double bed."

They looked at each other, showing a knowing smile.

※※※※※※※

The next day was still a warm and fine weather, the sun rose very early, and most of the tourists got up very early.

Carl wakes up before the set alarm clock goes off, and he and Pietro are ready with a variety of tools, enough for them to catch any kind of fish.

The two suppressed their excitement, and after a hasty breakfast, they went to the beach yesterday.

The two women were not with them for a beauty sleep, and Charles and Eric followed the two children in a suspended wheelchair.

After spending an energetic and high-spirited morning, they harvested a large bucket of sea fish and lobsters, as well as various beautiful shells, brightly colored starfish, and Carl even picked up a hermit crab that came from nowhere. It also became their spoils of war together.

After being processed by the hotel kitchen, these ingredients became their delicious lunch, and everyone ate more unconsciously.

In the afternoon, Carl decided to go diving.Although he has gone into the sea before, he always played and caught fish in the shallow sea. This time he wants to go to the deep sea to have a look.

As a Kryptonian, Cal doesn't need to breathe.When in the sea, he does not need to bring diving equipment to dive to the depths of the sea.

After greeting Charles, Carl jumped into the water.His speed was very fast, and he dived to a very deep place in a short while.The sunlight fell on the sea water, refracting colorful rays of light, which were blurred on the bottom of the sea deeply and shallowly.

Karl was like a swimming fish, circling in circles on the bottom of the sea in novelty, the small fish perched on the coral were startled by his movements, swam up one after another, and left here quickly.They are like a colorful canvas, showing a beautiful picture in front of Karl.

Karl reached out to touch those little fish with great enjoyment, and felt the airflow across his fingertips when they swam, as if the fluff of a dandelion slipped under his hand.

Carl, who was having fun, didn't notice that a huge black shadow was slowly swimming not far away, and the small fish around flicked their tails, swimming faster.

It wasn't until the sense of crisis suddenly exploded from behind that Karl turned his head suddenly, only to find that a huge shark was opening its mouth wide, intending to swallow him into its stomach.

Carl was startled and swam away quickly.The shark took a bite, turned around, and swam after Carl—it set its sights on Carl.

Carl used super speed and left the sea area with sharks.Carl didn't slow down until he was sure it couldn't catch up.

Of course the shark couldn't bite him, but Carl didn't want to experience a "day trip in the shark's stomach", so he had to avoid it.

He observed the surrounding environment and found that this place is even more beautiful than the place just now. Colorful corals and aquatic plants are all over the bottom of the sea, and there are some strange plants that can emit light. Karl's eyes floated by, and he couldn't help reaching out to touch it. A tiny electric current passed from the smallest jellyfish, making it numb.

Carl swam happily, turning all over the place, down to the tiniest piece of seaweed.

When he turned his head inadvertently, Carl saw a silver fish tail sharply. He became curious and swam over there to have a look.

After a lot of chasing and intercepting, Carl saw the true face of the "fish" - it turned out to be a mermaid!

Moreover, it is the kind of mermaid that fits the image in the fairy tale book.

"He" has long blue hair, so beautiful that he is indistinguishable from male and female, and there is a thin layer of fish fins growing around his ears, most of which are hidden in his long hair.The light purple eyes quickly moved away as soon as they saw Karl, and the mermaid's silver tail was like a sharp sword, swimming very fast in the sea.

But when "he" couldn't get rid of Karl after several attempts, the mermaid finally stopped the swiftly swinging tail fin. "He" looked at Karl, opened his mouth slightly, and said something.But Karl couldn't understand the meaning, he guessed it was the language of mermaids.

Seeing that Karl didn't respond, the mermaid seemed a little anxious, "he" opened his mouth wide again, and suddenly, a sharp and piercing sound came out of "his" mouth, and the sound waves spread rapidly from the sea water, attacking Karl fiercely, It made him dizzy, and his eyes were full of gold stars.

When Karl came back to his senses, the mermaid had disappeared.

He shook his head, recalling the experience just now, and the hidden dangers emerged one by one.Karl was a little scared, he just chased the mermaid out of curiosity, but he didn't want "him" to have such a remarkable attack power.

Carl no longer wanted to play, he kicked his feet and started to swim overhead.

Of course, those beautiful little things he got at the bottom of the sea are still in the bag next to his swimsuit-Carl is going to give them as gifts to his family and his friends.

However, when Carl emerged from the sea and faced a strange sandy beach, he was still a little dazed.

He remembered that he was going upstream according to the route in his memory, and he used his super hearing to fix his position halfway.

Although a little puzzled, Karl still walked out of the sea. He suspected that what he heard in the sea gave different results from the actual results due to the refraction of the sea water.

Just as Carl walked to the beach and was about to try to fly there, he suddenly felt something and suddenly raised his head to look forward.

He saw a man in a coat standing there, maybe he had just come out of the sea, and there were still drops of water on his body, which slid down his skin and disappeared on the edge of his black swimming trunks.

The man looked at Carl, steel-blue eyes with undisguised scrutiny and guard: "Who are you?"

The author has something to say:

It took several days to write this chapter, and it was really indescribable pain for Calvin.

I feel like I'm gradually pigeonholing, terrified.jpg
