Chapter 1152: Chapter 1150 Welcoming
Before long, a considerable number of Fishn had gathered on the sea surface near the previous landing point, so even climbing onto the rocks.
The new lody seed to have a considerable soothing effect, and they appeared less frantic than during the hunt before.
In contrast, the people on the Poaching Ship were visibly confused.
After unconsciously fleeing for a while, they seed to have noticed sothing unusual about the Fishn. Hesitating a mont, not only did they not continue to flee, but they even awkwardly turned back.
I told you not to worry about them running off.
Without surprise, Fu Qian withdrew his gaze and continued to monitor this secluded area of the sea.
Just as previously ntioned, no matter how long they wrestled internally, Lann and the others would never give up on this mysterious place.
Even Fu Qian believed that after confirming the safety of the Fishn, they would attempt to land on the island directly, just like those two—
Narrowing his eyes at a figure not too far away stealthily climbing ashore, Fu Qian finally stood up, satisfied.
The figure was strong and sturdy, with thick black hair and a dense beard, none other than the Friend of Nature, Delanlay.
As expected, he didn’t escape and got entangled in this as well.
The next mont, Delanlay, after carefully observing his surroundings upon landing, turned to pull sothing out of the sea.
At first glance, it looked like a fish trap woven from vines, though the craftsmanship was very diocre.
And inside the cage, a familiar fierce face was poking out, that of the young, naive rmaid.
There were more than one vine not only on the fish trap but also wrapped around her, seemingly to prevent her from running away.
…
I knew you wouldn’t take the proper path on a pilgrimage.
Vivian’s singing was evidently more effective on her own kind.
Besides the Fishn outside who had already received the “blessing,” there was also a newcor inside, or rather, a new fish.
When on the outskirts of the Sea of Ashes, the young rmaid had shown an urge to venture deeper, giving reason to suspect that she had been led there.
And from just now until this mont, Vivian had been singing for quite a while, the young rmaid likely having accumulated a significant longing.
At the sa ti, judging by Delanlay’s previous behavior, he seed not to reject these natural sounds.
Thus, the probability of this duo coming over following the sound was not small.
And considering Delanlay would definitely not want to bump into Lann and the others, seeing the ship parked there, he would most likely give up swimming along the river and look for another spot to land.
Fu Qian had just been recalling the shape of the island, to guess where Delanlay and his company might choose to land.
As it turned out, luck was not bad, for both himself and them.
…
“Judging by the sound’s location, just over that rise ahead, we should be close.”
After confirming there was no abnormal movent around, Delanlay easily lifted the young rmaid and casually remarked.
It’s hard to say whether she understood, but she did not respond.
Of course, he seed not to require a response, just providing information.
“Actually, there’s still so distance to go; are you sure you don’t want to switch to a bucket that can hold water?”
However, at that mont, a voice sounded nearby, causing Delanlay to be struck as if by lightning.
To be fair, the voice wasn’t unfamiliar, but it was precisely this point that was frightening.
“You…”
Struggling to turn his head to look, Delanlay saw a smiling face, and the last bit of hope in his heart was ruthlessly shattered.
“eting again, are you here to listen to the song too?”
Fu Qian, however, did not mind the other’s rude deanor, continuing to smile amiably.
“But you still can’t change your bad habit of animal abuse, can you?”
He pointed at the young rmaid in the cage.
The latter obviously had an impression of Fu Qian as well, showing fear directly through body language, almost trying to shrink her entire body back.
Abusing animals?
The shaless accusation from Fu Qian made Delanlay’s blood boil.
However, having seen the other party manipulate the tentacles in the sea and shatter a tree with a single strike, he obviously wouldn’t simply consider the other as a lunatic.
This was clearly a character who controlled everything from behind the scenes.
He could have easily killed everyone, but for so unknown purpose, he drove all the people here, even this innocent rmaid—could the singing inside have sothing to do with him?
The next mont, Delanlay realized sothing, and he was greatly shocked and lost color.
He knew I would co, and he was already waiting here!
Previously, he thought he had successfully concealed himself through his ability to move in water, but in fact, everything was under control.
Indeed, he had been naive. The sea monster that shattered the giant tree didn’t even appear and may have been tracking him all along…
The question was, what exactly did this guy want to do?
“Don’t be afraid, I’m not waiting for you.”
Facing Delanlay’s shocked and angry expression, Fu Qian did not wait for him to speak and directly spoke comforting words.
Not waiting for ?
Delanlay clearly didn’t quite believe it, but the next mont he realized sothing and abruptly turned to look at the little rmaid.
“Is she your target? What do you want to do with her?”
“Why do you think I have an obligation to explain.”
Facing Delanlay, who mustered up the courage to ask, Fu Qian tactfully declined his request.
“Hand it over to , and you can leave.”
“She really is still very young…”
Obviously struggling intensely on the inside, Delanlay finally picked up the fish cage.
Of course, before handing it to Fu Qian, he still said sothing sowhat reluctantly.
“I can see that, but she sings quite well—”
Fu Qian cut himself off mid-sentence, looking down at himself.
Strands of vine that extended from the fish cage were wrapping around like snakes at a rapid pace.
And in contrast, the little rmaid in the cage was freed from her restraints in an instant.
“Run!”
Delanlay bellowed like a thunderclap on a clear day, directly tossing the rmaid into the sea, while the vines grew at several tis the speed, tightly entwining Fu Qian.
Taking advantage of the cover, he also sprinted desperately towards the water’s edge.
But alas, the mont he took his first step, an invisible impact sent him flying.
The terrifying force made him lose the ability to move upon landing.
Although he was surprised by this thod, he had anticipated this outco, and his first reaction was to look at the rmaid who had been thrown out.
However, to his despair, the little rmaid, who had been struggling to flee, was now poking her head out of the water, staring blankly at this side motionless.
“Quick—”
Overco by a rush of urgency and anger, Delanlay opened his mouth but only managed to shout a single word before he could no longer continue.
The injuries were far more severe than he had imagined.
But this very word made the rmaid hesitate for a mont, then she moved a couple of steps closer to this side.
“What a touching scene.”
In this situation, Fu Qian, radiating the aura of a fiend to the fullest, let out a tily cold laugh, casually gesturing.
“Only a pity that it still has things to do, so it’s better to stay.”
In the midst of screams, as if an invisible force was pulling, the rmaid’s body was lifted out of the water, flying through the air towards him.
