My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start - Chapter 330

Chapter 330: I’ll Give You A Hand

“You go ahead. I can handle it here.”

Antonio chuckled and walked to the rocking chair that Casey had laid on the deck. He laid down and hummed a song comfortably.

Watson nodded. He teleported and disappeared from the deck. When he appeared, he was at the cabin below the deck. As soon as he entered it, he choked on the smell of blood. It seemed to be an interrogation room. The room was filled with torture instruments such as shackles. Besides those instruments, he also saw a large iron bed that seemed to have some wet blood stains on it.

Just as he was about to explore further, he heard a crew member from outside.

As he pressed against the crack in the doorway, Watson saw two crew members in blue clothes carrying a large bucket passed by the room.

“Every time we go out to sea, Young Master Casey always arranges for me to be in the lower cabin. How many times has that been this week? Doing this kind of work every day, I can’t even eat anymore.”

“Be grateful. Even though the work in the lower cabin is revolting, there’s also an advantage. The young master was too lazy to deal with the bodies of the girls that he had raped to death, so he left them to us. The valuable things on their bodies also fell into our pockets! It’s not only that, but they also feed the mermaids flesh from those girls’ bodies. They even saved money on groceries. I wonder if the mermaids can eat human flesh?”

The two crew members walked past Watson, and Watson’s eyes widened subconsciously. He realized that the barrels in their arms were broken limbs. He thought of the bloodstains on the instruments of torture in the room; he felt nauseous.

‘What is wrong with that young master? How can he have such a perverted hobby? If I had known earlier, I would have told Nightingale and Denise to be more careful!’

Watson felt murderous, but he did not leave. He was intrigued by those two crew members’ words. They had imprisoned a mermaid in the lower cabin. He had only heard of such creatures in fairy tales; he did not expect that such creatures had existed in the world. He decided to take a look.

After the two crew members left, Watson teleported to the position they had revealed. He instantly arrived at the deepest part of the cabin.

He saw a locked iron door, but that did not stop him at all. He flicked the lock lightly, and the lock shattered. The door slowly opened, and then he saw a water tank that emitted a sky-blue glow.

A few beautiful mermaids were swimming in the water tank. They were quite different from what Watson had seen in the fairy tale books. The mermaids’ upper bodies were human. Their sky-blue hair was like seaweed, and shells covered their pale breasts. The bottom half of their body consisted of a fishtail, and their blue scales had a rainbow-colored glow.

There were four mermaids. Three of them were adults, and one of them was a youngling. She looked like she was only 12 or 13 years old. Other than the shell on her chest, she also wore a small crystal crown on her head. The other three mermaids surrounded her; she did not look ordinary.

[Gold-tier Sea Folks: Mermaids]

[Abilities: Water Elemental Control, Seductive Dinging (can use beautiful singing to seduce the enemy, causing the enemy to fall into a state of confusion), Tide Calling Song (a gold-tier spell that summons a water pillar to attack the enemy, causing large-scale damage), Foam (turns the body into foam, to a certain extent immune to physical damage), Fire Resistance Aura (resists fire-elemental spells, immune to fire-elemental magic).]

[Additional ability: Anthropomorphization (turns the fishtail into legs and can walk on land for a short period).]

When he saw the mermaids, the information appeared in Watson’s eyes. He paid attention to the information because he realized that the mermaids were not magical creatures. They were part of the sea tribe.

Watson searched the memories of the Einherjar’s body and found a wise man who specialized in studying those creatures. He obtained information about the sea tribe. The sea tribe was the collective name of all the humanoid creatures that lived underwater, and they were different from magical beasts. The sea tribe possessed a high level of intelligence and their own civilization. Their city was called Atlantis, and they believed in the Sea God. The sea tribe warriors were born with a beautiful singing voice and affinity with the water element.

Other than the sea tribe, there were many other races in that world. Other than the humans, elves, and angels that Watson already knew, there were at least hundreds of different races in the world. Some of those races were extinct, but some were still active in some corners of the world.

After learning about the marine race, Watson slowly approached the enormous blue water tank in front of him. He was about to greet the mermaids, but before he could make a sound, the mermaids looked at him warily.

The little mermaid backed off weakly while the three adult mermaids swam over and made a strange sound.

Those words seemed to be the sea tribe’s unique language, and Watson could not understand them at all. Fortunately, the Einherjar’s memories also contained experts who often roamed the sea and were proficient in the same language. Watson immediately understood what they were saying.

The mermaids asked, “Who are you? What are you doing?”

“Don’t worry. I’m not a bad person. I heard a cry for help, and I’m here to save you.” Watson used the same language to explain to them.

The adult mermaids were a little surprised that Watson, a human, had mastered the sea tribe’s language. However, they quickly reacted, and the leading mermaid sneered at him. “Don’t try to deceive us. The hateful human who captured us had tried his best to get close to us. However, he doesn’t speak our language, so we can only rely on our guesses. This time, he actually sent a human who mastered the language of the sea tribe. Do you think that we will compromise? To us, you humans are executioners covered in blood. Go back and tell your master that he has captured the pearl of the sea, the mother of the sea’s youngest daughter, Princess Alice. Sooner or later, he will receive the punishment he deserves.”

“You’ve misunderstood me. I have nothing to do with the owner of this ship. In fact, he had captured me.”

Watson raised his hands to show that he was not hostile as he approached the tank slowly.

“Stop, don’t come any closer! Otherwise, don’t blame us for not being polite.”

One of the adult mermaids was angered by Watson’s actions. A sharp song came out of her mouth, and the entire water tank and the room shook. The ear-piercing sound was meant to lead people into the violent sea. The water in the water tank immediately boiled. A thick water arrow shot out from all directions toward Watson.

That was the mermaid’s song of summoning the tide. Faced with that gold-tier spell, Watson put his hand down helplessly and blew in front of him. “Platinum-tier spell, Absolute Zero.”

Crack, crack, crack!

The water arrow immediately froze in mid-air. Pure white ice spread along the water arrow and instantly arrived above the water tank. It formed a layer of ice on top and sealed the entire water tank inside. The surface became extremely cold, and it caused the mermaids to shiver uncontrollably. They stared at the water with their beautiful eyes.

“A platinum-tier spell? You’re a platinum-tier mage. How could that hateful human invite such a powerful existence?”

The sea folks were beautiful creatures with a unique fishtail. Some of the noblemen had special fetishes about them.

Therefore, the sea folk girls were often sold as slaves in the human community. Just like how humans loved the sea folks, the marine creatures also had a certain understanding of humans. They were very clear about the position of platinum-tier elites in the human community.

“I’ve already said that I’m not on the same side as the people on this ship. Otherwise, with my strength, if I wanted to do anything to you, you would not be able to resist me.”

“Perhaps you’re deliberately using your powerful strength to lure us and force us to yield? If you continue to approach us, we’ll protect Princess Alice with our lives.”

The three adult mermaids were still in disbelief. Just as they were about to attack Watson again, the youngest mermaid they had been protecting behind them suddenly swam forward. “Everyone, don’t be nervous. I sense that the human in front of us does not mean us harm.”

“Princess Alice, why are you swimming forward? Get back. If that human casts another terrifying spell, we might not be able to protect you.”

“That’s right. We can’t trust humans. Some of our compatriots believe their words easily. That’s why they were captured and sold, becoming those detestable people’s playthings.”

The mermaids spoke, one after another, but the little mermaid ignored them.

She swam to the edge of the water tank and stuck her face to the transparent wall. Her big blue round eyes were filled with curiosity. “My name is Alice. What’s your name? You said you wanted to save us. What are you going to do? This water tank is special. It’s engraved with a powerful imprisonment spell. Even if you’re a platinum-tier mage, you might not be able to let us out.”

That water tank was a peak gold-tier magic item. It had a special defense, and it was no weaker than some platinum-tier tools. With such a powerful defense, it prevented the mermaids from escaping.

“A platinum-tier imprisonment spell?”

Watson looked calm. He walked to the water tank and gently knocked on it. “Is it very hard?”

Crack!

A deep pit appeared where he knocked on the water tank. Then, a few cracks spread along the pit and quickly extended to the entire water tank. The water tank cracked with a crisp sound, and the water flowed out rapidly. The mermaids swayed their tails in disbelief, riding on the water toward the ground.

Did he really break that water tank?

“Princess Alice, hurry up and leave. We’ll cover you.”

It was not easy for them to come out. After a short moment of shock, the mermaids reacted and rushed out with the little mermaid in their arms. In the end, Watson stopped them.

“What are you doing? Didn’t you want to save us? As expected, you’re in cahoots with the people on this ship. Letting us out is to make it easier for you to torture us.” The leading mermaid immediately cast a hateful gaze at him.

“There are many elites on this ship. There are more than ten gold-tier warriors. All of you are very weak now. You won’t be able to escape in your current state. I’d better help you out.”

As Watson spoke, he opened his right hand and released a series of divine blessings.

“The God of Strength’s blessing! The God of Spring’s blessing! The God of Wind’s blessing! The God of Light’s blessing…”

The mermaids were no longer weak. Instead, the scales on their tails began to glow with divine radiance, becoming even stronger than when they were at their peak.
