Under the tarpaulin, there was a painting.
In the painting was a young girl with long pink hair, a smile on her face, and rosy cheeks.
The most moving and lifelike were the girl's eyes. The simple colors and strokes made those eyes reveal shyness, deep affection, reluctance, and all kinds of other emotions.
The girl's head was draped in a translucent muslin dress, and behind her was a boundless expanse of clouds and azure water. The sun had just risen, and the background and the girl in the painting were perfectly integrated into one, making people feel suffocated.
"Too beautiful."
Xiao Chuer's eyes were blurred.
"It's Romiya."
Ning You secretly praised old Kenai's painting skills. No wonder old Kenai could make Romiya fall head over heels in love with him. It turned out he had this kind of unparalleled flirting skill.
Awesome.
While the three people were in different moods, the moment Romiya saw the painting in the water bottle, she was already sobbing. Her tears and the water in the bottle merged into one, inseparable.
"Kenai …"
Little Kenai stared blankly at the beauty in the painting. He faintly understood his grandfather Kenai's conflicted feelings, but didn't know what to say at this time.
"So that's how it is."
After Ning You thoroughly understood the plot of this side mission, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Who wrote the script?
Wasn't this the "mermaid version" of a family ethics drama?
He already thoroughly understood the plot of the story.
Back then, old Kenai and his wife had already been engaged.
Perhaps it was their parents' matchmaking, or perhaps it was for some other reason. In short, he already had a fiancée, the kind that was about to legally get on a horse.
But at this time, old Kenai went out to sea to fish. Fate made fools of people. He didn't catch any treasure, but instead caught a mermaid.
As the saying goes, people aren't plants and can't be emotionless. Day and night, day and night, day and month, let's talk about it later. After omitting countless stories in the middle, old Kenai fell in love with the innocent mermaid girl even though he had a fiancée. He loved her to death, unable to extricate himself.
After Romiya returned to the giant divine beast Poseidon, she didn't know that the difference in lifespan between humans and mermaids was so great. She waited day and night, but Kenai didn't come.
Old Kenai repeatedly thought about it, but felt guilty. In the end, between his fiancée and his mermaid lover, he chose the initial promise. He chose to grow old with his first wife and never saw Romia again.
"No wonder Old Kenai would build the wooden house here." Ning You glanced outside, sighing with emotion. "You can see the boundless sea of clouds from here. He probably hopes that one day, he'll be able to see Romia emerge from the sea of clouds."
"Scumbag."
Xiao Chuer, on the other hand, felt indignant for Luo Miya who was crying like a fish. She stood from a woman's point of view and scolded her in a low voice.
"You can't say that." Ning You shook his head gently. "Sometimes, in the world of love, both parties have no choice. You can't judge right or wrong based on the outcome alone. Old Kenai didn't do anything wrong. He just couldn't control fate. Didn't he fail to take that step in the end? In the end, he chose the latter. "
"If I have to say something, it's fate playing tricks on me."
"If we find another target to vent our anger on, then everything will be the fault of the lousy producers."
Ning You's words seemed to make some sense. After Xiao Chuer cursed, she lowered her head and stopped talking.
Li Erpang's eyebrows twitched. His squinted eyelids trembled non-stop. "It's a f * cking good game, why did they make such a heart-wrenching plot? Did the lousy producers think that they don't have enough blades at home? "
As he said this, he turned around and quietly wiped the corners of his eyes, as if he was wiping the boogers.
Lousy producers!
In the water bottle, Romia quietly shed tears.
Suddenly, she hit the inner wall of the water bottle hard.
"Let me out."
Hearing this, the three people were startled.
"But you …"
Xiao Chuer suddenly understood Romia's plan. Her expression was startled.
"Let me out."
Romia didn't explain. She repeated what she said just now.
Ning You was silent for a moment. He opened and closed his eyes. He subconsciously touched his trouser pocket and opened his mouth to say only one word.
"Let me out."
Xiao Chuer showed a struggling expression.
Her mood was complicated and uncomfortable.
But this was clearly just a game.
Romia was also just an NPC in the game.
Xiao Chuer took a deep breath. After all, she was a woman who had experienced great storms and waves. She was an apostle. After being pretentious for a while, she suppressed her complicated mood. Carefully unscrewing the cork, a ray of light gushed out from the narrow opening of the bottle.
When the light dissipated, a wet Romia appeared in front of everyone.
Romia didn't care about the others. She moved her fishtail on the ground and slowly crawled out of the house towards the tombstone in the distance.
Xiao Chuer couldn't bear it. She wanted to go forward and help, but she was stopped by Ning You.
"Watch quietly."
But Ning You closed his eyes.
In the process of crawling, the scales on Romia's fishtail were quickly peeled off. In the middle of the elegant fishtail, there was a crack. Along the crack, the fishtail was split into two halves. Under everyone's gaze, the fishtail gradually evolved into two slender white long legs.
"She, she turned into a human?"
Li Erpang tried hard to widen his eyes.
Romia stood up barefooted, but fell down again. After falling down, she struggled to stand up again …
In this way, Romia, as a mermaid, forcefully evolved two legs. She acted out a vivid "mermaid evolution" in front of the few people. She stumbled to the tomb of the deceased Kenai.
Romia gently pressed her cheek against Kenai's tombstone.
She closed her eyes and stroked the tombstone, feeling the cold temperature of the tombstone.
After a while, Romiya smiled faintly. Then, as if by magic, she took out a thin veil and covered her head.
The hazy veil draped over Romia's head.
Behind her, there was an endless sea of clouds.
Romia turned around and smiled sweetly at the few people.
It was unknown whether it was a coincidence or not. After a night of tossing and turning, it was already morning. The sun had just risen, and the first ray of bright red light fell on Romia's body. It made Romia seem as if she was draped in a layer of holy light. Her entire body was bathed in the hazy light. The veil on her head reflected the light, as if it was an epic equipment, gorgeous and dazzling.
Little Kenai stood behind the few people. This scene made him suddenly stupefied, and he couldn't say a word.
The scene of Romia, draped in a veil, looking back and smiling, was exactly the same as in his grandfather's painting. Even that shy, affectionate, and reluctant smile seemed to have been copied on the spot for this absolutely beautiful scene in front of him, vivid and lifelike.
But the Romia in front of him and the Romia in the painting were decades apart.
Romia waited for decades like a day, but old Kenai spent his life in regret and guilt. From black hair to white hair, he imagined the scene of Romia draped in a wedding veil day and night. In the depths of his thoughts, he painted that picture.
This absolutely beautiful smile was thoroughly fixed in everyone's hearts.
Unconsciously, bubbles floated on Romia's body.
Romia, however, seemed to be unaware. She smiled and said: "Thank you."
"Thank you for helping me find Kenai."
"Being able to see Kenai, Romia is perfectly satisfied."
After saying that, Romia lay down in front of the tomb and closed her eyes: "Kenai waited for Romia for so long. Romia can't let Kenai wait any longer."
"Thank you, goodbye."
Three dots of light floated out from the corners of Romia's eyes.
The dots of light slowly floated in front of Li Erpang, Ning You, and Xiao Chuer.
The three of them had long been shocked speechless by the poignant scene in front of them. When the dots of light stopped in front of them, they just subconsciously stretched out their hands and caught the dots of light in front of them.
At this moment.
A "ding" sound came to their ears.
【Congratulations! Completed the side mission: The Merfolk's Wedding】
【EXP + 200000!】
【Received Gold Coins + 12000 G】
【Received "Merfolk's Tears"】
Romia turned into bubbles and scattered with the wind. Just like that, she disappeared in front of everyone.
In front of Kenai's tomb, it was silent for a long time. No one spoke.
Xiao Chuer's eyes were already red.
Ning You silently looked at the attributes of [Merfolk's Tears], and his eyes lit up slightly. But when he thought of the whole side mission, he didn't know why, but he couldn't be happy.
Li Erpang, who had always been keen on farming monsters, treasures, and equipment, after glancing at the attributes of [Merfolk's Tears], the corners of his mouth twitched. But soon, he grabbed his hair uncomfortably: "I feel so f * cking uncomfortable in my heart."
"Hey, you guys, if we didn't accept this mission and let Romia-chan wait in the Merfolk Kingdom like a fool, would the ending be better?"
Ning You shook his head: "Who knows."
Xiao Chuer turned around and couldn't bear to stay here any longer.
"Let's go."
After a few seconds.
"If we don't go now, I can't stand it anymore … Boohoo."
…
…
【Congratulations!】
【Level up to Level 74!】
【Received "God's Gift Point"】
Irin was farming monsters in the leveling area as usual.
Sun Qi was on the side gaining experience.
He was having a great time gaining experience.
Sun Qi never thought that riding on someone's coattails was such a happy thing.
You should have said so earlier!
There was nothing wrong with being a dog!
This human was shameless, and he looked a little annoying, but why was his posture of killing a child with one slash more and more pleasing to the eye?
Irin swung his sore arm.
He used the fastest efficiency to clear this leveling area.
Although the monsters in the leveling area were a full three levels lower than him, and their fluctuations were between Level 69 and Level 71, it was easy to win!
To Irin, killing a child with one slash was really no pressure at all.
After Irin cruelly slaughtered a leveling area and accumulated experience, he finally rose to Level 74.
"It's getting harder and harder to level up!"
Irin swiped down with his index finger and swiped open the interface to take a look. Looking at the increasingly terrifying level up experience, he secretly sighed.
He habitually opened the God's Gift interface and added points.
Except for the key God's Gift Point that could allow him to obtain a God's Gift Skill, Irin didn't care about the other small God's Gift Points.
What was there to be surprised about just adding attributes?
But what should be added still had to be added.
"Spirit again?"
"With the bonus of a special profession, there's no shortage of crystal energy value now. It doesn't seem to be of any use to add 'spirit'. "
"Why would an assassin need spirit attribute?"
Irin didn't remember that he was no longer a pure assassin.
"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since a God's Gift Point appeared to add 'spirit'. Unknowingly, my spirit attribute has almost exceeded ten points. "
As he complained, Irin's finger casually poked at the interface.
The God's Gift Point suddenly lit up.
[Spirit + 0.4]
Suddenly.
Irin's mind was blown.
As this God's Gift Point popped up, he felt that something in his mind was pierced through by an invisible finger.
The kind that was pierced through.
Three days later.
The Kingdom of Amara.
The city walls were towering.
The guards in front of the door were tight.
The NPCs that entered and exited were all carefully interrogated.
Beside the city wall, a row of wanted posters were posted on the noticeboard.
A traveler in a cloak and a bare-chested blacksmith came here with a dog.
