Astral Traveler [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 21 The Song of the Sea

Enoch was angry, and it was easy to see.

The fins on the side of male mermaids are naturally used for fighting. Even if mermaids no longer need melee combat, the biological instinct will make them open their fins when they are ready to fight, as if they are on the arms. It looks like a sharp blade, and it is threatening.

Infrasound waves emanating from his chest are inaudible to humans.

But Murphy could see the ripples in the water, and saw the mermaids in the courtroom curled up, and Carol was as helpless as a shrimp.

Then Enoch said: "Milo, if the captain of the guard betrayed me, what is the charge?"

A judge above answered tremblingly, and Carol looked up in horror.

Enoch said in a low voice: "This is a betrayal of me. Deal with it according to the law, and I will personally watch the punishment."

Carol wanted to argue, but Enoch's cold gaze made him freeze in place.

Murphy knocked on the wall, wanting Enoch to himself.

But Enoch didn't look back, as if deliberately ignoring Murphy, he turned his back to him and ordered: "Check the body of this human being, and then send it to Bailu Palace."

Murphy tapped harder on the wall.

Enoch turned his head and said in a low voice, "Murphy, be obedient."

Well, Murphy obediently was sent to the mermaid's hospital.

The inspection was quite troublesome. The mermaids racked their brains and sent him with various instruments. Before reaching a conclusion, they even conducted a large-scale consultation.

Enoch did not show up, but a black-haired mermaid from the escort team came over to translate for Murphy and said, "Your vocal cords were artificially cut and can be reattached, but there is no guarantee that your voice will return to its original state in the future. You can undergo surgery." ?"

Murphy nodded, and wrote with the electronic wrench, "Where's Enoch?"

The black-haired mermaid showed awe, and said, "Master Priest is watching the execution. If you want to watch it, there is actually a live broadcast."

So Murphy watched the live broadcast.

Who knew that Enoch didn't show up in the whole live broadcast, he was in a high seat the whole time, and the Neptune's guards lined up in two rows to guard him, and the live broadcast camera didn't dare to shoot him all the time.

As a result, Murphy saw the execution.

The social structure of mermaids is different from that of human beings. They are very straightforward and not hypocritical. Those who are capable have power, and those who have been punished according to law can also make the whole process public.

Carroll was convicted of high treason, and he was to have his vocal cords and a tail tendon removed.This means that he will not be able to speak in the future, and his swimming will also be hindered, almost like a half-crippled person.

But Feiyu was convicted of perjury, and it seems that he will be imprisoned in a water prison for several years.

Before the execution, Carol looked decadent and desperate, and begged for mercy when he was escorted there, but it obviously didn't work.

They fixed him on a chair, gave him an anesthesia injection, and then the executioner passed by.

Then, the screen was cut away, bloody and violent things should not be broadcast.

Murphy read it with gusto, and then, on a whim, he asked the black-haired mermaid with the tablet: "Is this how treason is always handled?"

The black-haired mermaid nodded.

Murphy continued: "I mean, another kind of betrayal. For example, Enoch's wife had an affair..."

The black-haired mermaid said seriously: "This is also the crime of treason, but it applies to the second article, which requires chemical castration."

Murphy clicked his tongue.

In the days that followed, Murphy was preparing for surgery.

Enoch never showed up in front of him, but Murphy knew clearly that he had been.

If it hadn't been for Enoch's visit, how could the doctors here keep silent, and how could the black-haired mermaid treat her so respectfully, as if she was entertaining a state guest.

But Enoch didn't show up, probably out of trouble.

Murphy waited and waited until the day when he was on the operating table.After he was anesthetized, put on an oxygen machine, and pushed into the operating room, everyone thought he must have lost consciousness.

But Murphy didn't. By the way, from the corner of his eye, he saw Enoch behind a layer of glass.

Enoch stayed there silently, watching the whole process of the operation.

After the operation, Murphy was observed for a while, and then sent to Bailu Palace—it may be a place specially built to entertain human envoys. drawn air.

Of course, after living for a long time, it feels similar to a water prison, because the space is small and the air permeability is poor.It just looks a lot better.

Murphy stayed in one of the bedrooms and lay down for a while.

Enoch was sitting beside him, staring at him silently the whole time.

After an unknown amount of time, Enuo lowered his head, slid his fingertips lightly on Murphy's face, then brushed his forehead hair, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."

Murphy pretended to wake up suddenly, struggling to turn his immobilized neck and look at Enoch.

Murphy couldn't speak, so he blinked and smiled at him.

Enoch stared at him for a while and said, "I know you are wanted, but I haven't paid attention to it. It's all my fault. Murphy, live here. I won't let you suffer any more."

Ah, Murphy just likes to hear the way this man says "I'm sorry": frowning together, with a sad expression on his face.

Such an arrogant man can only try to make up for it, but it is impossible to reciprocate his feelings.If he didn't love someone to the point of dying, it would be impossible for him to apologize in person.

Murphy stretched out his hand, took Enoch's palm, and wrote on the palm: "You will pay me."

Enoch said, "I will pay you whatever you want."

With a smile in his eyes, Murphy wrote, "I want your soul to be mine."

Enoch looked at him deeply, lowered his eyelashes slightly, and said softly, "Okay."

Murphy smiled and rolled his eyes, as if he saw another piece of godhead falling into his palm.

But he was not going to leave for the time being, because he just wanted to see Enoch apologizing to himself.If Enoch had legs now, Murphy would still like to see him kneeling and apologizing.

But it seems impossible now, who made Enoch a mermaid this time.

And he's the boss of the mermaid.

On the night of midsummer, Enoch would rise to the surface of the sea and pray to the god of the sea on behalf of all sea creatures.

His song will be heard across the seabed on this day, and at the end of the ceremony, the change of the moon phase will affect the policy of the mermaid for a whole year in the future.It is said that the song of the high priest holds the power of the sea god, so it can affect the ebb and flow of the tide, the migration of the ocean current, and the vitality of all things. It is the legendary "song of the god" in the mermaid society.

Murphy thought that was of course, Enoch's godhead, even if it was a fragment, would easily show the strength to destroy a plane.As far as his divine power is concerned, it is impossible to be mediocre in any world.

This ceremony will last for three days and three nights. Although Murphy can't go, he can hear it lying in Bailu Palace.

He heard Enoch's singing, the voice was loud and magnetic, it was the voice that sang with him in the storm that day.

It turned out that Enoch hid in the dark and sang the chorus that day, calming down the storm with supernatural power.He turned around and pretended not to know him.

After the hymn was over and the ceremony was drawing to a close, Murphy heard the mermaids humming happily outside.

It seemed that thousands of mermaids came out of the water and sang at that moment. The singing voices condensed together, covering the tide and stagnating the clouds, as if they wanted to penetrate the three souls and seven souls of all creatures in the world.

The black-haired mermaid also came to the window and couldn't help singing softly.

Using the tablet, Murphy asked, "What phase of the moon is it?"

"It's Maple Moon." The black-haired mermaid said, "This year is the breeding season."

Murphy believes that the so-called "breeding season" means that mermaids are about to start their busy breeding career.They govern all territorial waters, and of course care about the reproduction of all marine life.

But never expected that this is also the estrus season for mermaids.

Yes, the estrus of mermaids is controlled, unlike stupid humans who are uncontrolled throughout the year.But the common feature of intelligent creatures is that they initiate love to act mischievously, try various positions, take a honeymoon vacation directly with their partners, and then spend the whole month in an extremely promiscuous manner.

Within two days, the black-haired mermaid also asked for leave directly, with a blushing face of happiness.

An old lady mermaid who didn't need to ask for leave came to take care of Murphy.

Murphy asked, "What is Enoch doing outside?"

The grandmother said: "The high priest needs to find a mate."

Murphy smiled: "Just like Enoch's iceberg... Do you expect him to take the initiative to find a wife?"

"No, the priest's partner is designated by the shark bead." The grandmother explained, "The person who can react to the shark bead will be the priest's next partner. God's will can never go wrong, and they will form the most A happy family, and then the next priest will be born."

"Oh." Murphy thought to himself: That's not okay, Enoch is my thing, whether it's body or soul.I'd be pissed if someone else got him.

He went on to watch the news and saw that many mermaids did not work at all this month and were looking for a partner for the rest of their lives.

They chanted all night long, and after finding a tune that suits them best, they went to open a house—the male mermaid would perform a courtship dance, which was a bit similar to the ceremony of human kneeling to propose marriage. If the other party agreed, they could go to register for marriage.

Murphy had seen this kind of dance of the mermaid.Mermaids are already beautiful creatures, and when they try their best to show their beauty in order to court a mate, it is even more foul.

Murphy was curious that a cruel man like Enoch could also perform a flirty dance?

He was very disbelieving.

That night, Enoch finally returned to Bailu Palace.

He seemed to have just finished his work, looking very tired, from the water to the ground, his whole body was still wet, and the very light silk robe on his body was completely attached to his skin, shimmering.

Murphy liked good-looking men, so he took out the tablet and said, "Don't leave at night."

"En." Enoch responded, took off his clothes, and wiped the water droplets on his body, "How do you feel?"

"I'm fine. I hear you're out looking for a wife," Murphy wrote.

Enoch dried his body and sat on the edge of Murphy's bed, a special smell of tide and grass came up.Enoch said, "I have no intention of that."

Murphy continued to write: "I heard that you rely on shark beads to find a wife..."

Before he finished writing, Enoch said, "That's an old custom, and it has nothing to do with me."

Murphy smiled and wrote: "Are you really not looking for a wife? I want to watch you dance."

Enoch was stunned for a moment, his eyes stayed on Murphy's face for a moment, then he lowered his head to look at the tablet, and said hesitantly, "I...not very good at it."
