First mate is not easy

On a full moon night, fill the mermaid’s aria with clear water. When the moonlight is reflected in the center of the pot, drip the blood of the descendants of Babrus, and bury their heads in the water, you can hear the mermaid’s singing, which guides the place where the “Leviathan Statue” is located. direction.

——That's what the user guide for "Aria of the Mermaid" said.

When Lando was lying on the railing of the second-floor platform, with twinkling star eyes, he was waiting wholeheartedly to witness "Magic Time", but he didn't expect that the magical scene didn't come. Withdrawing his paws hanging on the big pot, he turned his head and sneered at Raymond: "I'm just surprised that there seems to be a lack of buzzing sounds around me tonight. I'm not used to it, and the sound came out gone."

"At least the creatures that can 'buzz' remember to shine the moonlight on the pot before dripping blood, unlike some people who have to cut their flesh and bleed." Raymond said lightly, "Without moonlight, even if you put your head The mermaid in the water tank won’t sing either.”

water tank.

This guy actually called this priceless treasure a "water tank".

The corners of Lando's lips twitched, and he was worried that the two would fight each other until eternity before they would shut up. At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of a "dong dong" bell ringing from a long distance outside the palace. It was completely introduced into the palace. Dill, who was standing on the pile of gold coins, was taken aback for a moment, and then his face turned black instantly as if he had thought of something. On the contrary, Raymond looked very happy and widened the smile on the corner of his lips. , took out his pocket watch from his pocket and took a look: "The Royal Guards have received a warning, and now everyone in the entire imperial city knows that a nasty mouse has sneaked out of the cell. After a quarter of an hour, they They will gather outside this palace with machine cannons—"

"Damn it!" Dill grabbed a handful of gold coins and threw them towards Raymond. The latter raised his hand to block it unhurriedly, and the gold coins made a "ding ding" in the pile of treasures again. There was a soft sound, and Dill roared wildly, "Are you doing it on purpose! I just said that today's prison guards seem to be very easy to deal with—"

You are not stupid.

Lando thought helplessly, sighed, and wanted Raymond to shut up and stop irritating Dill, but he didn't expect the man next to him to put a hand on the edge of the railing on the second floor, and then made a yell His startled movements: His red hair drew a beautiful arc in the air, and his slender figure jumped over the railing lightly. The next second, with a loud "crash", the pile of gold coins collapsed At the same time, the man who was originally standing on the second-floor platform landed firmly not far from the mermaid's aria.

Dill: "..."

Lando: "..."

The man stood up unhurriedly, patted the non-existent dust on his shoulders, and at the same time raised his eyes to glance at the stunned blond young man, and lazily reminded: "A few more words won't last even a quarter of an hour. "

The tone was hateful enough to make Dill gasp, and he really wanted to just draw his sword and fight this despicable and arrogant red-haired man to the death, but Dill also knew very well in his heart that what Raymond said was indeed the truth ——He had studied the map of Silton Palace before coming here. If all the imperial guards gathered at a certain point in a short period of time, it would indeed be a quarter of an hour. There are already Imperial Guards patrolling nearby, so the fastest one will probably arrive in less than three minutes.

Glaring at Raymond viciously, Dill first bit his own finger and then stuffed it to the brim of his hat—the next second as expected, first mate Pad appeared, and the entire gold coin piled up Jinshan was crumbling under the weight of the three adult men. First Officer Pad directly drew out the double knives on his back, and stared at Raymond fiercely with a pair of eyes.

Raymond smiled: "I knew I should have brought my stormtrooper leader."

Lando: "..."

This guy really knows how to piss people off with the shortest sentences.

Seeing that First Officer Pard's face became more ferocious than the bottom of the pot because he heard a certain stormtrooper who put him in a bottle and fed him as a pet was mentioned, Raymond gracefully drew out his long sword: "Don't Out of the way."

"Exactly!" Lando stretched his neck on the second-floor platform and yelled, "Two for two, we won't lose!"

Raymond: "I'm one against three."

Lando: "..."

On this side, under the cover of First Officer Pad, Dill had cut his palm with a dagger and dripped his own blood into the huge jug, and everything that followed seemed to happen at the same instant——

At the same time that Dill's blood fell into the pot, the gold coins under Raymond's feet made a splashing sound, and the long sword in his hand collided with the pair of first mate Pad's knives with a "bang", bursting into flames;

The originally calm water in the pot became more and more turbulent after the ripples, and finally formed a vortex;

Dill took a deep breath and was about to plunge his head into the water to listen to the singing of the so-called mermaid. However, when he tried to get close, he was attracted by a burst of mist rising from the pot, and he stopped abruptly, slightly Staring wide-eyed at the rising water mist—it entangled and multiplied, and gradually formed a human shape from a shapeless mist. As time went by, the outline became more and more clear, with long hair and slender hair. Her body, plump breasts, delicate female features and ears like the back of a seahorse...

Under the shocked eyes of everyone, when the misty thing stretched out its arms, and it seemed that there were water droplets dripping from her arms, the white mist gradually turned into light blue, wrapping around Dill's neck. With horror on his face, Er stepped back three steps in a row, and even the thing that was half of his body in the pot was separated from the pot itself by him, so everyone could clearly see the place below its belly, which was like water and mist. A huge fish tail shaped like a fish!

Amidst the chaotic sound of gold coins under Dill's feet, the arms wrapped around his neck were slightly tightened, and the "mermaid" rubbed Dill's cheek affectionately, leaving a scar on the blond youth's side face. At the same time as the water was falling, she suddenly opened her mouth and sang a beautiful voice——

The voice is ethereal and melodious, and the tune is weird but more beautiful than any musical score in the world. The female singing voice seems to come from far, far away. Lando stood there dumbfounded, completely stunned by what happened in front of him. Although he couldn't understand the language of the lyrics, he felt as if he really heard the song of a god...

"What is she singing?"

With unsteady steps, Lando lumbered to Raymond's side, and Lando asked Dill not far away—even though the latter's face was stiff at this moment, and he didn't look like he was free. Will answer his question... Lando stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked his lower lip anxiously, but at this moment, he suddenly heard a deep voice beside him——

"All life and all directions begin at the origin;

The years are eternal, and the sunset dies;

At the end of the sea level, the three lines of the sky, the earth and the sea merge into one, the giant beast swallows the boat, the sea water dries up, and the statue appears. "

If Lando read it right, when Raymond spoke, the mermaid girl hanging around Dill's neck seemed to turn her head and smiled sweetly at him—— she didn't think her first mate's charm Lando turned his head to look at Raymond in shock, and the latter seemed to be very dismissive of his shock: "I can understand that book, too. So of course I can understand what she is singing."

Of course I know this truth.

I just want to ask why.

Lando opened his mouth wide like an idiot and looked at Raymond, who slightly clenched the long sword in his hand: "Do you remember the content of the lyrics?"

Lando continued to nod with his mouth wide open like a fool.

The moment he caught a glimpse of him nodding from the corner of his eye, before Lando could react, the man had already swung the long sword in his hand again, and a fierce impact knocked the first mate Pad into the air, and the sharp sword had already hit Dean. Dill's throat—this is the legendary "killing the donkey". For a while, because the mermaid's singing fell into the static palace for a while, it became "vigorous" again. Fog, "Wow" yelled twice, quickly backed away and bent down to pick up a treasured knife inlaid with gems to block Raymond's attack——

The two of them were unsteady and both fell down the hill made of gold coins, making earth-shattering noises.

On this side, Lando also had a head-to-head confrontation with first mate Pad. Lando was also very nervous in the first direct confrontation with the uncle. Rather than attacking, it would be more accurate to say that he was deliberately avoiding— —

Lando: "The promised 'watch me grow up'! Are you just watching me grow up with a knife like this! Pad, do you still have a conscience!"

First Mate Pad: "It's good that you know it, but show a little respect for the elders, obediently put down your weapon and catch him without a fight!"

Lando: "Bah!"

While Lando and First Officer Pard were waving the cold weapons in their hands and arguing about whether "respecting the elderly" or "loving the young" was more important, Raymond and Dill had already started fighting again under Xiaojinshan. Back to the top of Xiaojin Mountain, both of them saw blood more or less at this time, and Raymond's right arm was cut with a long cut, and the overflowing blood almost stained his white shirt red. one slice!

The dazzling red attracted Lando's attention, and when he suddenly bent over to avoid the first officer's attack from the corner of his eyes, he saw Dill stretching out his hand as if trying to grab his wound and push him into the full In the huge jug filled with clean water, Lando raised his throat and roared: "Raymond! Be careful!"

And by this time it was too late.

Dill was already hugging Raymond, and the two of them crashed into the huge jug, the water splashed and there was a loud "crash"!

A few bubbles came out of the water, and a few seconds later, the huge and heavy jug was knocked over, and Raymond and Dill, who were soaked all over, rolled out in embarrassment. The silent mermaid suddenly spoke again, this time it only sang a short lyric, according to Lando's memory, this lyric did not match any verse it had sung before.

"What do you mean?" Lando was dazed, turned around and yelled at the two huddled together, "Someone translate!"

Raymond kicked Dill away who was on top of him, and while Dill let out a cry of pain and rolled over and was buried by gold coins, he heaved a sigh of relief and got up from the ground——

"'Rebirth from the flames, return to the fundamental from withering'... This sentence doesn't seem to have much to do with the coordinates, what does it mean?"
