Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 841
Chapter 829 Fate is unpredictable
Although Alfonso is not responsible for taking care of the Red Sea Tree, it is still no problem for him to take Sol into the Red Sea.
The time of entering the Red Sea this time was quite coincidental. When Sol and Alfonso came down, the groups of mermaids did not lie on the seabed and be lazy, but gathered around the roots of the Red Sea Tree, gnawing something with their sharp teeth.
If you look closely, you can see brown rhizomes hanging on the roots like tree tumors.
The expressions of these mermaids are very strange, and they are enjoying it very much, as if they are enjoying a big meal.
When Sol and his friends passed by, no mermaid paid any attention to them.
Sol let go of Kate and whispered to him, “Let’s search separately. If you find someone with a similar smell, call me.”
Kate nodded. He was not as sensitive to the blood of the Green Scale Clan as Sol. If it were not for Floco’s inconvenience to possess him at this time, it would actually be the fastest to let him come and search together.
At present, Sol and Kate can only try to find other mermaids with the blood of the Green Scale Clan based on the clues left by Floco.
Alfonso did not look for them. He stopped at the place where the tree roots were densest, watching the every move of Thor and Kate.
The Red Sea Tree is a very important strategic resource, which is related to the future of the entire Nephrite continent. Naturally, he would not let Thor stay alone under the sea.
Of course, he would not be too worried.
The special nature of the Red Sea and the Red Sea Tree made the entire Tribunal focus on this place.
If something out of control occurs, even the Lord of the Tribunal, Flim, will rush over at the first time.
Alfonso watched Thor and prevented him from making trouble, which was actually protecting Thor.
Thor knew that Alfonso was watching him. Although he was nominally looking for atavistic mermaids, he was actually searching for his own target.
There were thousands of mermaids gathered under the Red Sea Tree. Thor only scanned for a few days before sinking to the seabed to see if there were any fish that slipped through the net.
Kate was looking for her target by smell near the roots of the tree.
Thor swam deeper and deeper, and was already close to some distant canyons and caves.
Alfonso’s eyes were fixed on Thor, and his hands were clasped tightly together without him realizing it.
Sol didn’t know that Alfonso above him was inexplicably nervous, and was just searching in some places where few fish went.
He was looking for a mermaid with Floco’s bloodline. Such a mermaid might have been trying to escape the Red Sea like the mermaid possessed by Kate, and might appear in a hidden area on the edge of the Red Sea.
Even if they couldn’t escape because the entire Red Sea Tree was strictly controlled by the Arbitration Court, they would probably try their best to get rid of the influence of the roots of the Red Sea Tree on them.
Suddenly, when passing a place covered with heavy roots, Sol vaguely felt a strange mental power.
It was just that the mental power flashed away, as if the abnormality Sol just felt was just his illusion.
But Sol knew that he was absolutely not wrong.
He stood on the tree root where the mental power fluctuations just appeared, and stomped the ground lightly with his feet.
The result of the mental power exploration was that there was indeed a gap below, which was very narrow, but enough for a thin person to pass through.
Just when Sol wanted to lift the tree roots to take a look, Alfonso came down from above.
“Did you find anything?”
“There may be mermaids down there.”
Alfonso took the initiative to move forward and directly lifted up a large piece of tree roots, bringing up the mud and sand on the seabed.
The movement was quite loud.
Sol raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not stop him.
“There is a mermaid down there.” Alfonso looked down and said to Sol, “Do you want to go down and catch the mermaid?”
Sol smiled and said, “I’ll go and take a look and come back.”
Alfonso did not make any other movements this time, and waited up there.
Thor went down and swam around, and saw a mermaid lying on the stone.
There were several green scales on the tail of this mermaid, and it was obviously related to the atavistic mermaid.
But when Thor scanned the other party’s spiritual body, he found that the other party’s spiritual power fluctuations were different from the hidden spiritual power he just discovered.
The mermaid just now should have run away.
Thor did not search further. Even if he went down, he would probably find at most one or two ordinary mermaids.
The extremely hidden spiritual power just now must have disappeared.
Now that the target just now has not been tracked, it has basically been lost.
Thor grabbed the mermaid he found and crawled out of the crack in the ground.
The mermaid did not resist, and looked as stupid and stupid as the other mermaids, without any initiative.
“There is one hidden here.” Thor showed the mermaid he pulled out to Alfonso.
“There are too many mermaids here, and they may have been squeezed down. They don’t know how to run out.”
The mermaid that Thor brought out was very thin, even thinner than the other mermaids.
If Thor had not figured out that the mermaid in front of him was not the one he had just found, he would probably agree with Alfonso’s view that it was a mermaid that was squeezed down and could not find a way out, and was starved to death.
Alfonso looked down and saw a palm-sized green scale on the tail of this extremely thin mermaid.
“Congratulations, you actually found your target among so many mermaids.”
Could Thor say that his real target was not the atavistic mermaid?
No, so he took the mermaid who became a surrogate fish back.
When leaving the Red Sea, Thor also took some roots and stems of the Red Sea Tree back. After all, how can you study mermaids without the cooperation of the Red Sea Tree?
It’s a pity that if you want to take away a complete Red Sea Tree, you must apply to the Red Sea Tree Maintenance Team of the Arbitration Court, and then temporarily evacuate part of the seal maintenance of the Red Sea Tree, so that you can transplant it without damage.
The leader of the maintenance team is naturally Roye, a third-level wizard who loves the Red Sea Tree very much.
But Roye is not there.
Sol had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and chose a branch with more vitality, ready to go back and stick it in the water to try.
Sitting on the return boat, the mermaid Kate huddled in a corner with the newly captured atavistic mermaid
. Although the two mermaids were of different bloodlines, they belonged to the same species after all.
With Kate’s comfort, the new captive could be more at ease. Casting a look at Kate, Sol turned back and asked Alfonso who was driving the boat.
“Does this mermaid have a name?”
Alfonso was concentrating on driving the boat, not even looking at the new mermaid, “You found him first.”
Sol turned back and saw that the newly captured mermaid was a male. According to Alfonso’s usual naming method, “Let’s call him Quartz first.”
The mermaid with a new name moved, and was then held tightly by Kate again.
The way back was still dim, just like the difficulties Sol was facing now.
“If you can’t find or solve the cause of the mermaid’s illness, you may have to accept Roye’s plan to create a new royal family and transform mermaids.”
Alfonso said, “I don’t have much hope for Roye’s plan. A new royal family? If blood fusion is so simple, the Tribunal would not have allowed the current Eternal Night Royal Family to exist for so long.”
A sigh sounded in the dark water.
“Blood fusion cannot be solved by calculations and formulas. Sometimes, it is as unpredictable as fate. And fate cannot be created.”
