The Collection of The End

——Marvel, 2015——Lan

The inner sea.

Lola Angelberda has always believed that she is very special, and her identity may have been specially selected by Lord Shirahoshi to be a secret weapon to save the end of the world.

If other mermaids always dream that they are in another world that is about to be destroyed every night when they go to bed, and no matter how much time has passed in that world, if they wake up and look back and find that only ten or twenty minutes have passed, it must be I might have the same thoughts as her.

Why "wake up"? Well, of course because every dream ends with her own death...

Patroller, submarine captain, space station administrator, and even the princess of the underwater kingdom. She has various identities in her dreams and controls a considerable amount of resources. However, the doomsday events in those dreams develop very quickly. Often before she understands the world setting, learns to use resources, and tries to do something, the entire world has been completely destroyed.

The most annoying thing is that these dreams never repeat. Even if she wakes up and thinks of the key to the solution, she has no chance to put it into practice. The next time she falls asleep, she will see a new world with no impression at all.

Back when she was still living in Atlantis, the dreams she often had were not like this. Lan

At that time, she would see only four scenes in total when she fell asleep. They were a single mother who was abandoned by her husband and raised her daughter alone with a snake and a dog; The brave mother who was brutally killed by the enemy and desperately protected her son before she died, and the country girl who bravely went to the city to pursue love, but her fiancé had forgotten the promise.

It seems like a series could be formed by changing the order...and they are all "love" that she is not good at dealing with.

Lola was very distressed by this, so she prayed to Lord Shirahoshi, the Lord of the Ocean Dimension who controlled Atlantis, to solve this problem, and the response she got was: [Why don't you try to make the world what you want it to be? ? 】

It makes sense, that's my dream. Even if the change fails, there's nothing to lose, right?

I don’t know whether it was because she had this idea or because she received Lord Shirahoshi’s blessing. Since then, Laura no longer habitually followed the "plot" after falling into a dream, but would immediately "wake up" and Able to control "one's own" behavior.

Because she had never experienced it before, she was not good at dealing with emotional problems, and there was no need to empathize with herself in the dream. Laura finally chose to use force to solve everything.

She brought her daughter, snakes and dogs to the door of the betrayed man's house, beat up the betrayed man and his wife, and then burned the exquisite palace on fire. Lan

She used the connections of the underworld giant Mom to issue marriage invitations to all unmarried men of the right age, declaring that she would marry anyone who could defeat Mom, causing chaos in the underground world.

She transformed the power inspired by desperately protecting her son into destructive power, and successfully killed the strange bald man without a nose.

She kidnapped her fiancé from the engagement party and took him back to her hometown in the countryside to let him regain his memory. ….

After successfully solving those weird dreams and preventing them from appearing again, Laura happily went to Lord Shirahoshi to fulfill her wish.

Then... he inexplicably obtained the qualification to enter the "Sea of ​​the Earth's Core" that can only be obtained by wholeheartedly believing in the White Star.

Along with my sister and some fishman friends.

Mermaid Island.

"Uh...well..."

Laura woke up in the "Mermaid House" hotel, still a little lost.

She seemed to have had a lot of dreams about the apocalyptic world, but she didn't seem to have them at all. It was easy to recall the dream she had just left when she woke up, but now when she tried to recall, there was only chaos in her mind.

She stared blankly at the starfish wall clock on the bedside of the hotel. It wasn't until the starfish's small tentacles spun several times that the memory of reality gradually lit up in her mind.

Yesterday, she seemed to have picked up a human being.

Because humans who believe in Shirahoshi-sama are too

Suddenly, he happened to fall near himself who was watching the stars, so he took him to the shore. Lan

However, during the time when he was sent to the shore, a certain image in his memory that had been blurred became clear again. It was the childhood sweetheart who finally remembered the promised city fiancé and the child who protected her with his life. The unruly pirate who finally defeated the mafia mother and married her, and... the prince who turned around and burned down his own palace.

Look at the imposing black clothes, the flowing long hair like kelp, and the very conspicuous hooked nose that she once accidentally said she liked very much...

At that time, I had just had the idea, "Is this person Shirahoshi-sama specially captured and brought into the Kingdom of God according to his own preferences?" when he heard the shipwrecked man say:

——Do you want to leave here? Maybe I can come along?

Even if you are very handsome, directly proposing is not enough!

Well, I couldn't hold back my hand at that time and almost cracked his ribs.

If you think about it carefully, this person's physical fitness is too weak, weaker than ordinary humans. Could it be that Lord Shirahoshi deliberately chose someone who is not his opponent to prevent him from bullying him in the future? That's not necessary. Lan

Although mermaids are not as powerful as fishmen, their physical fitness and magic power reserves are very strong, but there is no chance to use them in the inner sea of ​​the earth - she does not intend to participate in barbaric competitions.

After that, the man who called himself "Atreus Laufeyson" successfully landed on Mermaid Island.

Lord Shirahoshi is omniscient and omnipotent, at least in the inner sea of ​​the earth. Laura had already seen the mermaid who was arranged to act as his guide. Originally, her mission had been completed and she should have said goodbye, but she inexplicably thought of being in the original dream. Once separated, your fiancé has completely forgotten you when you see him again.

——You have just arrived in the Kingdom of God...do you need a guide?

Just because I said this too much, I have been reluctant to use it, and the "leg-splitting medicine" I planned to wait for the next square *** is gone.

Although you don’t need to speak to communicate with Shirahoshi-sama, how can you hold up a sign and say nothing as a tour guide?

Fortunately, he didn't mind, and after a rough tour, he successfully arrived at the Coral Apartments, where outsiders would stay first. Lan

The door number of the apartment will show the real name, so the "Rocky Laufeson" he told his sister and the others was false, but the "Atreus" he told himself was the real one. ….

Then... Laura covered her face with her hands.

The leg-splitting medicine was only effective for one day. She planned to spend some time with Atreus while his appearance was more acceptable to him. At that time, she was considering whether to use the excuse of showing him the apartment to follow him in, but there seemed to be nothing in the apartment. Visitable.

——Want to come in and sit down?

Because she happened to catch up with what she was thinking at the time, she mistakenly thought that her thoughts had been seen through, and ran away in fear.

What a waste.

Laura put down her hand, looked down at the blue fish tail that had turned back due to the failure of the leg-splitting medicine, and shook it twice in frustration. Lan

As a result, I can't walk today and can only "swim" like a snake, but fortunately I can talk. Atreus shouldn't dislike it, right?

should……

Coral Apartments.

"Room 402, vacant?" Laura was at the door of the apartment, looking at the text displayed on the doorbell, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

This is unreasonable.

It wasn't that Atreus' absence was unreasonable, it was possible if he had wandered out last night and found a better place to stay. Lan

But "vacant" is very problematic.

The rooms in the Coral Apartment are "infinite". The principle of this was told to her by the old man.

The general idea is that when the apartment is full and new residents come, the apartment will move the guests in room 1 to room 2, and the guests in room 2 to room 3, and so on. Eventually, the guests in room 1 will be moved to room 2. It was freed up for new guests to stay in. The total number of rooms did not change, but there was still one more room. At that time, my head was almost overloaded.

At the same time as the concept of "there are not enough rooms in the Coral Apartment", there is also

The concept of "it cannot have vacancies" is the same as checking in. If someone moves out, the room number will be reduced by one, and the total number will remain unchanged.

So what exactly does "vacant" mean...

"I can't wait, Laura." At this time, a fish-man's rough voice came from behind: "That human didn't come back all night, so he is probably dead."

"James, how many times have I said..." Laura turned her head with some dissatisfaction, but paused mid-sentence and backed away: "How did you... Hey, stay away from me -" Lan

The visitors were his three murloc neighbors. They had completely lost the grace and majesty of the patrolling yaksha. They seemed to have fallen into a pile of mud mixed with coral, kelp, cactus and seaweed. Their bodies were covered with scales and carapace armor. The cracks are stuffed everywhere, and passers-by are afraid to avoid them.

"Don't worry, it doesn't smell." James tried to sort out the stains and debris on his body, but failed: "This is the masterpiece of that human being."

"Well... I saw him hanging you up with a stick, so I knew he was a magician." Laura put down the hand covering her nose: "You went to make trouble for him and were killed instead? Three against one?"

"No, you're looking for trouble," James snorted, "Historical texts are not allowed to visit in the middle of the night."

"Historical text..." Laura hesitated.

The "objective record" personally certified by Shirahoshi-sama is important and useless. It is meaningless for ordinary people to confirm the history that has happened. Do you think that changing the words above will be enough? Can history be changed? ….

If it was really that kind of powerful treasure, Shirahoshi-sama wouldn't leave it in a coral forest that is inaccessible and has no security measures. Lan

"Although I don't know what the purpose was, he didn't come back all night," James grinned: "Probably, indeed, dead."

"..." Laura looked at the fish people up and down: "You were hung up all night?"

"We are, ambushing." James glared.

"If something happens to him, you will be doomed." Laura glared back and swam past the three murlocs toward the coral forest.

"Lo——"

Wow!

Laura flicked her tail, and the shallow water for the mermaid swimming under her body was lifted toward him. Lan

James raised his hand to block the water mist. When he wanted to catch up, he found that he could not move. When he looked down, the water poured on him had turned into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye. All three fishmen were covered by a layer of ice. Thick ice armor trapped him in place.

"It seems that she is really angry."

"But, it's none of our business."

Behind him were two followers Didi Gugu.

Coral Forest, historical text.

Laura came all the way, started searching from the position where James and the others were hanging, and circled around the huge stone cube several times, but did not see the shadow of the person in her heart at all. Lan

Even if I read the historical text, I can't find any clues about people who have nothing to do with me. There is only one clue related to Atreus:

[‘The Little Mermaid, Lola Angelberda meets ‘Atreus Laufeyson, (?-2018). 】

See, there is none...

Um?

Something seemed wrong.

Laura went back to the front of the "History Text" and looked at the record carefully.

Wait, where did the "1960-1989" behind my name go? Lan

According to the common sense of Mermaid Island, that is the "birth date" and the "date of entering the Kingdom of God" of each resident of the "Earth's Inner Sea". The former is used to determine what era a person is from, while the latter is used to determine which " Generally speaking, only the residents of the Dragon Palace and Yumin Guild Hall use it, and they usually ignore it as the "identity card number" of mainland people.

As far as Laura knows, the only way it will disappear is when "two residents fell in love and were expelled from the Kingdom of God by Lord Shirahoshi."

Has it turned out that my thoughts have been discovered? hey-hey……

Luo

He held his face in his hands and was stunned for a while, then suddenly came to his senses.

Wait, there is still a problem. She stared at the record. According to this logic, Atreus's number should be (?-2015). What does "2018" mean?

Da da da.

Laura was thinking hard when she heard the sound of something falling "under her feet". When she looked down, she happened to see two small pearls falling and collided with the dozens of small pearls that had accumulated on the lawn. Together. Lan

clatter.

"I thought it was just a legend that the mermaid's tears would turn into pearls..." Laura stopped mid-sentence and reached out to touch her face: "...I'm crying? Why?"

"[Because, your heart already knows what happened, but your head hasn't thought about it yet.]"

An extremely gentle and kind voice sounded in her ears, and at the same time, the morning sunlight leaking from the branches of the coral forest was also blocked by a huge shadow.

"[However, it is my problem that it will turn into a pearl.]"

"Shirahoshi-sama! Please save Atreus!"

Laura suddenly raised her head and looked at the huge figure with long pink hair and pink fish tail, but the tears that had accumulated in her eyes for a long time and turned into pearls made her unable to see the appearance of this demon god at all. Lan

That is not the "time to enter the Kingdom of God" at all, but the "time of death"...

Atreus saw the year of her birth and death and wanted to change it, but in the process he got himself involved...

He should obviously be a great being whose life and death are question marks, but for an ordinary mermaid like himself...

"[I did hear your wish,]" Bai Xing's gentle voice stopped her from continuing her random thoughts: "[Lola Angelberda, no, Lily, you are destined.]"

Snapped.

With a slight explosion, Bai Xing's huge figure and all the "little pearls" disappeared without a trace, replaced by the familiar black-robed figure standing in front of the historical text.

"I'm back, Lily," he said. Lan.
