After watching the carriage leave on the Hill, Meg poured himself another cup of tea. As he watched the steam rise slowly in front of his eyes, he squinted slightly and looked at a big tree not far away from him.
A figure was leaning against the big tree and peeking in that direction.
This person had been here for a while, and Meg quickly noticed him because he wasn't very professional.
He was wearing a full set of black clothes and a hat in broad daylight. The only thing missing was the words "I'm a spy" written on his forehead to indicate his identity.
An enemy is here? Or is he targeting me to make a fortune? Meg raised his eyebrows. From the situation he sensed, it should be a human with a strength of about 6th-tier. It was obvious that he was coming for him.
There was too little information, and Meg couldn't deduce anything.
That man in black stood behind the tree for a while before pulling down the brim of his hat and turning around to leave.
Meg thought about it, and didn't choose to follow him.
A 6th-tier strength couldn't even break through the automatic defense of the restaurant. What kind of threat could he pose?
Since he came to scout during the day, he would most likely take action at night. In that case, he would wait until nighttime to see what he wanted to do.
…
In a deserted alley, three men in black with black hats gathered together. One was tall and thin, one was short and fat, and the last one was a well-built man.
"Boss, have you really scouted the place? We're going to make a big fortune this time. As long as we succeed, the three of us won't have to worry about anything, "the thin man whispered.
"Nonsense, when have I ever had a problem? As long as Fatty's information is correct, that restaurant really has a divine weapon that can make super delicious grilled fish by itself. We'll definitely succeed tonight, "Colby said with a confident smile.
"It's definitely correct. I saw the boss take out delicious grilled fish from that black divine weapon with my own eyes!" Fatty nodded with certainty, and a nostalgic smile appeared on his face as he said, "That taste was really delicious. Furthermore, one fish costs 2,500 copper coins, and there are so many people ordering it. As long as we can get this divine weapon, we'll just have to lie down and collect money every day. Furthermore, we'll be able to eat delicious grilled fish every day."
"Eat, eat, eat. You're already as fat as a ball and all you know is to eat." Colby patted the fatty's head, and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips. "When I have money, I want to drink the strongest alcohol and ride the wildest women!"
…
"One, two, three …"
After the lunch service ended, Meg looked at Gina, who was happily counting mud casings in the corner. He couldn't help but ask, "Gina, why are you collecting so many mud casings? Even if it's supper, you can't eat that much, right? "
Gina stared at Meg for a while before she understood what he meant. She pointed at the mud casing and then at her mouth. She waved her hand, indicating that it was not for her to eat. She then gestured with her fishtail and said, "My, clansmen, they, eat."
Meg spent quite some time to understand what Gina meant. It turned out that Gina had prepared these mud casings for the merfolk like her. It seemed like she wanted them to have the ability to breathe on land as well.
However, Gina didn't even know where she came from, nor did she know where her home was. No matter how many mud casings she collected, she probably wouldn't be able to give them to her clansmen.
Moreover, what made Meg more curious was, wasn't it good for the merfolk to live in the sea?
There were no territorial disputes, and they were free. They also had an endless supply of fish. Why did they have to come to the mainland to fight for living space with other races?
"Big Sister Gina can't speak or write, but she can draw. Why don't we let her use drawing to communicate with us?"
Amy asked curiously as she walked over with Ugly Duckling in her arms.
"Oh, right. That's a good idea." Meg's eyes lit up. He actually didn't think of such a simple idea. Little kids could indeed find the simplest and most effective way.
Meg passed a pen and paper to Gina, and then gestured as he said, "Gina, if you have something to say to me, just use drawing."
Simple daily communication could be carried out using body language. However, slightly more complicated conversations obviously couldn't be carried out using body language between races with completely different worldviews.
Gina's eyes also lit up when she saw the pen and paper. She picked up the pen clumsily, and quickly learned how to control her strength to draw lines on the paper without breaking the pen or tearing the paper directly under Meg's guidance.
Everyone in the restaurant surrounded Gina curiously as she sat in front of the table.
Everyone was very curious about Gina's background. However, due to the fact that they couldn't communicate with words, they still couldn't figure out where Gina came from and why she came after so many days.
Gina thought for a while, and then started drawing.
Murlocs with human bodies and fish tails quickly appeared under her pen. They surrounded a circular platform that looked like an altar. In the center of the altar, there was an old Murloc in a long robe. He seemed to be presiding over some solemn and mysterious ceremony.
Although it was her first time drawing on paper with a pen, Gina's drawing was surprisingly good. Although she reduced some details for the sake of speed, those simple lines still made people feel the solemnity of the crowded merfolk.
"There are so many merfolk. What are they doing? Are they praying for pies to fall from the sky? "Amy asked curiously as she knelt on another chair and looked at the drawing.
"Looks like it's indeed a very big merfolk tribe." Meg was deep in thought. Although there were only a dozen merfolk drawn on the paper, there were more wavy lines that represented the crowded merfolk.
Gina didn't explain. Instead, she quickly started drawing the second drawing.
A beam of light appeared above the altar, and then a projection of an image appeared in the sky. All the merfolk had surprised expressions on their faces.
"Could it be a revelation?"
Elizabeth exclaimed softly with a look of disbelief on her face.
"A revelation?" Everyone looked at Elizabeth curiously.
"What is that? Big Sister Elizabeth, "Amy asked.
"It's said that there's a supreme god on the Norland Continent. Among the various races, the elves worship the God of Life, the forest trolls worship the God of Strength, and the orcs worship their respective totem gods. No one has seen God before, but there are occasional revelations. Hence, many people still believe in the existence of God, "Irina explained.
Gina couldn't understand their conversation, and didn't explain. Instead, she started drawing the next drawing.
The chaotic image of the revelation stopped, and a restaurant appeared on the screen. A young man was standing in front of the restaurant.
"Isn't that Father? And our restaurant! "Amy exclaimed softly.
Everyone looked at the painting in shock, their faces filled with disbelief.
…
"Isn't it just a slide show? What's the fuss?"
The system mumbled.
