Han and Shenping sat side by side on the grass. A few rescued mermaids surrounded them and gave them some simple bandages. The rest of the merfolk were burying the bodies of their compatriots. As for the evil poachers, they were subconsciously ignored by everyone.
Shen Ping looked at his bandaged wound and asked Hai Lei Ding,""Human, your skills are not bad! What's your name?"
Hayredin, who had been injured by the mermaid, grimaced in pain and slowly replied, Barbarossa d. Hayredding." After some thought, he felt the need to explain something, so he continued,"" I was just passing by Fishmen Island, planning to head to the new world. Unfortunately, I don't have my own boat, so I could only borrow someone else's boat. I didn't expect to board these disgusting scumbags 'boat.”Hayredding admitted frankly,"It was a coincidence that I came here. I just wanted to find a place to look at the beauty of the mermaids, but I didn't expect to encounter such a situation."
Hearing this, Shen Ping looked sadly at the destroyed village and the corpses everywhere. He suppressed his anger and said in a low voice,"Such a scene has been happening for the past few years.”
"I'm sorry!" Faced with the tragic situation, Hai Lei Ding was speechless and could only sincerely apologize.
Shen Ping didn't say anything else, and the place fell silent for a moment.
"Come to our village and let me treat you well. You will be my guest.”After watching the murloc's remains be collected and buried, Shen Ping stood up and extended an invitation.
"Boss Shenping!" Hearing Shen Ping's words, one of his underlings panicked and hurriedly went forward to stop him.
Shen Ping raised his hand and interrupted his subordinate's words. He simply looked straight at Hai Lei Ding.
From his eyes, Hayredding saw the calm of a gentleman. It was a look of confidence and trust.
" I'm honored to be a guest in your village." Naturally, Hayredding accepted his invitation.
Without saying a word, Haredin followed him. After passing through layers of dense forests and crossing streams, Haredin had completely lost his sense of direction. The only thing he could be sure of was that the humidity in the air was getting higher and higher. Recalling the bartender's words, Haredin knew that the murloc village was getting closer and closer.
Sure enough, after turning around a hill, a magnificent city came into view. The city was half by the lake, and the layout of the city was completely different from any city that Haredin had seen. Even the most famous shipbuilding city, the Capital of Seven Waters, could not completely integrate the buildings and the environment like what Haredin saw. Some houses were on the ground, and some were built in the lake. However, for the people of Shenping, this was the most suitable way for them. The buildings were very unique, completely reflecting the way of life of the murlocs and merfolk. From a distance, the merfolk and merfolk could be seen bustling about in the city. The entire city looked so peaceful and warm under the reflection of the light from the ceiling.
As if sensing Hai Lei Ding's shock, Shen Ping pointed at the city in front of him and said,""Originally, this was just our temple, but now, this is our capital. "And you…" After a pause, Shen Ping looked at Hai Lei Ding and slowly said,""You are the second human to come to this place.”
Upon closer inspection, most of the buildings were very new and did not seem to have a long history. Every decoration and every character revealed the glorious history of the Fishmen, the most intelligent race. Hai Lei Ding, who was immersed in the unique architectural culture of the merfolk race, arrived at the outskirts of the city under Shen Ping's guidance. Here, Haredin saw several fierce murlocs armed with weapons, guarding the path of the group. When they saw Shen Ping, all the murlocs bowed respectfully, but when they saw Haredin, their eyes were filled with a fierce light, staring at him fiercely. At the same time, the veins on their hands that held their weapons were bulging.
This hatred was hard to resolve. Hai Lei Ding could only helplessly laugh bitterly in the tense atmosphere.
At this moment, Shen Ping stood out again and said to the nervous murlocs,""Let him in. I'll be his guarantor.”
" However, this is a special period…" The Murloc Guard wanted to say something, but Shen Ping suddenly widened his eyes and glared at the guards angrily."I, take, full, responsibility!" At this moment, Shen Ping's prestige in the Fishman Tribe could be seen. With his roar, the Fishman Guards immediately made way for him. Shen Ping brought Haredding to an ordinary murloc house and let him rest first before leaving. Only the murlocs that Haredding had saved stayed with him.
In the beginning, Hayredding was still looking at the decorations in the room with interest. After some time, he was getting impatient. Therefore, he went to the mermen who were resting and asked curiously,"Why are you still here?"
The merfolk answered pitifully,""We were originally villagers of that tribe. Now that our home has been destroyed, we can only stay here temporarily and wait for the arrangements of our clansmen.”After saying this, the murlocs 'eyes turned red and tears began to flow again.
When Hai Lei Ding saw this scene, he immediately felt a headache and hurriedly apologized,""I'm sorry…"
" No, it's not your fault. We have to thank you for saving us," the merfolk ladies hurriedly waved their hands and said,"" We sisters only thought of the destroyed village and felt a little heartbroken…If you hadn't saved us and were sold to the surface, it would have been worse than death. I heard that many of our sisters were sold to the Heavenly Dragon people and suffered a lot before dying helplessly…"
Hearing this, Hai Lei Ding's face darkened. He knew that what they said was indeed the truth, but he also secretly felt that he did not have a good way to help them. As he sighed, Hayredding thought,"When White Beard comes here in the future, your days will be much better. This day won't be long." But this was something that could be thought about, but Hayredin didn't dare to say it out loud. The atmosphere became very gloomy. After thinking for a while, Hayredding hurriedly changed the topic."Can you take me to the streets? I'm very interested in your lives…"
On the street, Haredin looked around curiously, sizing up the sights he had never seen before. From time to time, he would go to the small stalls to look at those novel gadgets. The merfolk followed him obediently, helping him explain his doubts. Suddenly, a muffled voice came from beside Hai Lei Ding.
"This is a human?"
Hayredding turned his head and saw the mermaids standing respectfully in front of a merman. He replied softly,""Yes, my lord."
Lord? Hai Lei Ding was immediately interested, but at the same time, he subconsciously became vigilant. Then, he carefully scanned the murloc in front of him. A very powerful Murloc! There was no need to look. As long as he saw the murloc's thick arms, that unique greatsword that humans could not use, and the pressure that was emitted from its body from time to time, Haredin was certain: This guy was definitely on the same level as Shen Ping.
"Human!" The murloc shouted and placed his hand on his sword. Immediately, an aura erupted from the murloc's body and locked onto Haredin. He only felt his entire body tighten, but Hai Lei Ding still looked at the Murloc Sword Hero without fear. The two of them exchanged glances, and sparks flew. The battle was about to start.
"Stop!" At this critical moment, Shen Ping arrived in time and stood in front of Hai Lei Ding. He said to the Murloc Sword Hero,""He saved the lives of his clansmen. I was the one who brought him to the city.”After he spat out the last sentence, Shen Ping looked coldly at Murloc Sword Hero, waiting for his answer.
From the corner of his eye, Haredin saw the mermaids trembling under the aura of the Murloc Sword Hero. He hurriedly took the opportunity to walk over and stand in front of them. Under the cover of Haredin's body, the mermaids, who felt the pressure greatly reduced, smiled at him.
"Shen Ping!" The Fishman Sword Hero did not show any weakness. He took a few big steps forward and approached Shen Ping. He looked straight into Shen Ping's eyes and said through gritted teeth,"Do you want to fight?"
"Big brother!" "Boss Shenping!" Seeing this disharmonious scene, the underlings on both sides hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
"The clan leader wants you to go to the hall!”Shen Ping calmly faced the Sword Hero's provocation and said indifferently.
"Hmm?" Hearing this, the Sword Hero's aura froze. After thinking for a moment, he finally relaxed his grip on his weapon. The atmosphere instantly lightened. He glared fiercely at Hayredding, who was standing guard in front of the mermaid, and said,""Damned human, consider yourself lucky!”The Sword Hero slowly left with a few of his trusted subordinates.
Seeing the Sword Hero leave, Shen Ping turned around and looked at Miss Murloc a few times. He asked with concern,"Are you guys alright?" After receiving an affirmative answer, he turned to Hayredding, who had an innocent expression, and said,"Let's go. The clan leader wants to see you!"
Clan leader? It must be Fishertag! Hayredin was filled with curiosity towards this future legendary figure.
