Cthulhu Corrosion: Another World Rescue Plan

The mermaids were once the overlords of the ocean.

Before the evil gods descended on this beautiful newborn planet, the mermaids were born from the sea. They are the people of the sea and the children of the land, half human and half fish, but stronger than any other race.

Their beautiful appearance is just a seductive appearance. In fact, the mermaids can smash a granite boulder with the slap of their fish tails. Anyone who does not have the thickness of a giant's skull will burst like a ripe watermelon with just a slap of three points of force.

The mermaids' slender and beautiful bodies contain great power. Their white and delicate skin, which seems to be fragile, can withstand the water pressure and biting cold of the deep sea. Even sharp swords cannot cut or pierce them.

They usually live on the seabed in the state of fish tails and human bodies. Their elbows and fingertips have gauze-like fins, and their fingertips can grow sharp nails like knives for hunting.

During the day when the sun is at its best, the mermaids will float to the surface, stretch their tails on the islands and reefs, and dry every scale.

They will use a round and hard sponge that grows between the reefs on the seabed to carefully remove the seaweed, barnacles and insects between their bodies and the gaps between their scales. They will also use fishbone combs to comb their long hair. After the crystal clear scales are washed clean, they will glow with beautiful iridescence in the sun, and the gauze-like fins and dry and smooth long hair will flutter slightly in the sea breeze.

The mermaids will sing happily at this time. Their beautiful voices are like fairy music, and all humans who are lucky enough to hear them are intoxicated.

Those songs have different effects as the mermaids' moods change.

Or inspire, or comfort, or make people indulge in dreams, or fall into the sea obsessively.

However, mermaids are actually gentle creatures.

They don't have too many desires, and they hunt only to fill their stomachs. They will waste most of their time drying fish scales and fins and competing in singing voices, and their pursuit of art far outweighs everything else.

The daily singing voice competition is also the way for mermaids to choose their mates. They will choose the mermaid with their favorite singing voice and scales and start pursuing them.

During the breeding season in summer, pregnant mermaids will return to the shore and shed hot tears. Their part of the power as fish will flow out with the tears and gather into silver-white mermaid beads. Mermaids can transform into humans, their gills become lungs, and their fins and scales will become colorful mermaid dresses, which are elegant, colorful and beautiful.

Mermaids in human form are very similar to ordinary humans, except that they have gauze-like fins on their ears. They will make their mermaid beads into necklaces and hang them in front of their necks.

Mermaids give birth on the mainland, and their children grow up in human form until their tender skin becomes hard enough to withstand the water pressure of the deep sea.

Mermaid parents make their livings by spinning and fishing on the shore. They interact with humans and exchange what they have with each other, using exquisite mermaid yarn and lively seafood to exchange for rice, vegetables, and winter cloth and fur from humans.

When the summer of the third year comes to an end, the mermaids will choose a suitable summer night to dance and sing on the beach.

The most beautiful shaman among the mermaids will dance a sacrificial dance to pay tribute to the sky, the earth, and thank the world, celebrating the arrival and growth of new life.

At this time, the world consciousness will turn its attention to the mermaids, appreciate their dance, and bless the new life.

Mermaid parents who have received the blessing of the world consciousness will cut half of their own mermaid pearls, swallow half themselves, and stuff the other half into their children's mouths. The children will then gain the ability to transform into mermaids and return to the depths of the sea with their parents.
