Legend of the Mermaids, Banyan Tree
Ox frowned and retorted, "I just want to pick up some food at the beach without going into the water."
"How dare you talk back!"
The feather duster fell quickly again.
"Ouch! I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore, I won't go."
After the lesson was over, my mother was not at ease and scolded him again. After getting Ox's promise not to go near the seaside again, she returned to the fields to take care of farm work.
Ox rubbed his swollen and sore butt and said angrily, "Really, I don't know why she is so angry. I already said I won't go into the water. What does it matter if I just pick up some shells on the beach?"
He also saw that his mother was too tired to work alone, so he wanted to pick up some seafood for her to try. Who knew he would get a beating?
A few friends came out after seeing the adults leaving.
"Haha Ox."
"Did your mother beat you?"
"Where did I hit you? Let's see if it was hard?"
"Go, go, why didn't you come out and stop me when I was beaten just now? It's really unloyal." Ox rolled his eyes.
"Ox Don't be angry, we don't dare."
"When my father comes back and hears about this, I will probably get beaten up by him too."
"Me too."
"I was beaten when I first came out."
"You didn't run?"
"The more I ran, the more fierce the beating became. Look at the whip marks on my legs."
"My lord, you are so harsh."
"I don't know why they are so afraid of the sea. Are there any monsters in the sea?"
"Have you ever seen a monster?"
"I haven't seen it before. We went to the beach to collect shells and we didn't see any monsters, and nothing happened."
"Maybe they are afraid that we will drown if we go into the water?"
A group of small children are at their most energetic and curious.
The less they are allowed to do anything, the more curious they become.
"How about we go and have a look next time. This time we don't bring the shells back, but just eat them there and then go back?"
Shen Yu just entered this city.
He got the prompt from the Terror system.
"You have entered Dungeon-Legend of the Mermaids(s), the number of people conquered: 100, the number of deaths: 31."
"Dungeon prompts: The daughters of the sea are creatures loved by Sea God. They have beautiful appearance and beautiful singing voices. They love good-looking humans and want to capture humans and build nests in caves. However, the arrival of Sea God destroyed everything."
"Dungeon Rules: First, don't trust those mermaids.
Second, don't go near the seaside.
Third, if someone offers you a pearl, remember to refuse her.
Fourth, don't trust beautiful-looking creatures.
Fifth, if you look good, don't let others see you."
"Requirements for clearance: 1. Survive for one month; 2. Escape from the ritual; 3. Kill???"
Shen Yu: Huh?
How much?
He almost suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
One hundred people?
Thirty-one people died.
Why hasn't there been any news?
How come no one reported those missing persons?
Shen Yu thought again of that country Haierderi. The economy is so bad that a large number of people can barely afford food and clothing, and those who go overseas cannot make much money.
And not everyone can buy a boat and go out to sea.
In such a country, even if some people disappear, no one will probably take care of them.
Maybe no one even noticed.
Shen Yu sighed.
Perhaps there are many Dungeon like this all over the country. He couldn't spare the time to deal with them before. Now he is waiting for those new people to be trained and able to take over most of the tasks.
These Dungeon should also be dealt with.
The existence of Dungeon is also the reason why there are more and more weird things on Blue Star.
All those weird things came from Dungeon.
It's a pity that if you don't force out that Horror Game, even if you conquer all the Dungeon that have appeared so far.
There will still be a steady stream of Dungeon appearing on Blue Star.
One of the reasons why Shen Yu wants to seize the time to study the laws of space is also to find the origin of Horror Game.
Dungeon is just the corner of a world that has been shattered by strange invasions.
Most of them only had one fragment left, which was made into Dungeon, further eroding other worlds.
It is not easy to have a complete world.
Shen Yu has not conquered Dungeon many times, but he can guess that the higher the level of Dungeon, the more complete the world in Dungeon, but the stronger the weirdness inside.
These Dungeon are all just tools for Horror Game to corrode the world. Even if they are all destroyed, the true core of Horror Game will not be harmed.
It's like Anomaly Containment Association.
Headquarters is in Source World, even if all the affiliated companies on Blue Star are destroyed by the enemy, it will not actually affect the foundation of the Anomaly Containment Association.
As long as Headquarters is still there, affiliated companies can still be re-established, and the dead Contract Anomalist can also be re-cultivated.
Shen Yu follows those little brats.
Watching them fighting all the way, they came to the foot of a huge banyan tree.
Several old people holding folding fans sat under the trees to enjoy the cool air.
The group of children ran all the way over. When they saw the banyan tree, they ran over and climbed up several times on the branches. They were as nimble as a few monkeys.
As long as these kids don't go to the beach.
The attitudes of those adults were very tolerant.
The old people enjoying the cool air didn't stop him, they just said a few words of caution.
These children were hanging on the branches, "Hey, the banyan tree fruits seem to be ripe."
"Really? Let me see, it's really ripe. Let's go pick some."
Each banyan tree fruit is as big as an egg. They are green when unripe and dark red when ripe.
These banyan tree fruits look a bit like large-fruited figs, and the fruits have a faint aroma when ripe.
It smells very sweet.
Shen Yu is sitting on a branch, which is far away from the group of monkeys and at a higher position.
This large-fruited banyan tree is more than ten meters high. Some of the branches at higher places are difficult to climb, so the children have never climbed up.
On the trunk of the tree, there are densely packed clusters of fruits.
There are many birds flying around on the branches.
The location here is high, the sun is good, most of the fruits are ripe, and many of them have been eaten by birds.
Shen Yu found a fruit that looked intact and ripe and broke it off.
Open gently.
The fruit inside looks a bit like a fig.
It is filled with fruit honey, and a sweet and greasy aroma comes out.
Shen Yu looked at it and found no bug, so he took a bite.
After one sip, your mouth is filled with a sweet, fruity aroma.
Very sweet.
I ate one in a few bites.
Shen Yu went to pick another one.
The children also liked the fruits on the banyan tree very much.
Perhaps this was one of the few things that could be called delicacies in their childhood.
Eat and eat.
The group of children started chatting again.
"Do you think there are monsters in the sea?"
"How about asking those grandmas and uncles?"
