Unlimited Doomsday Escape

Chapter 173 The Changes of the Mermaid

After Gu Gu gave Lan Xiaye the medicine, he followed her closely. On the surface, he was worried about her safety, but the real reason was clear to both of them.

Under such strict surveillance, Lan Xiaye struggled to get out.

Not to mention exploring the house, even when she went out to take a breath, Cuba would be with her.

On such days, the palace sent them fish and algae for their consumption every day. Lan Xiaye did not eat them out of caution. Instead, he secretly ate the food he found on the ship every day and put the food sent by the palace into the space.

But there will always be a day when the food is finished, especially after becoming a tasker, the energy requirements are greater, and these foods are not enough for Lan Xiaye to last for a long time.

Without food, she had to eat food sent by the palace.

She secretly observed Cuba and found that he ate the same thing as herself every day.

Lan Xiaye was extremely uneasy for some reason. Every vibration in her heart made her extremely reluctant to taste these foods.

But she couldn't survive without eating, especially since Cuba was very strict with her and she couldn't even go out to look for food.

In order to comfort herself, Lan Xiaye would secretly exchange the food between the two of them every time they ate.

When Lan Xiaye officially ate the food here for the first time, he didn't feel anything was wrong.

Gradually, she also relaxed her vigilance.

"Li Hong." When Gu Gu looked at Lan Xiaye affectionately and called out this name, Lan Xiaye desperately pressed the corners of her mouth downwards to prevent her smile from leaking out.

Her facial expression now is very strange, she seems to be smiling but not smiling, and she forces the corners of her mouth downwards.

The mermaid prince who had always been affectionate towards Lan Xiaye could not help but remain silent.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked doubtfully.

"Nothing." Lan Xiaye changed the subject: "What did you just ask me to do?"

Cuba laughed, his eyes as bright as stars: "Mother held a banquet, let's go to it together."

"I have prepared a dress for you." He stepped aside and there was a dreamy dress placed on the chair behind him.

This dress is in a blue-purple color, with an excessive gradient from top to bottom. I don’t know what material the skirt is made of, and one layer of tulle is slightly fluttering in the sea water.

The skirt is covered with diamonds and pearls, which is so dreamy.

Even if Lan Xiaye looks ordinary now, she looks radiant in this dress.

"You are so beautiful." He stared at Lan Xiaye, his deep eyes made Lan Xiaye pause, and a strange emotion surged in his heart.

When she and Cuba entered the hall again, she saw, as expected, that the human missionaries were all wearing gorgeous dresses.

"I heard that there are humans who want to return to the land, right?" The Mermaid Queen sat high up, lowering her eyes, showing a hint of pity.

The eyes of the several missionaries present were unpredictable, but none of them made a sound, trying to show off.

No one paid any attention to her, so the queen sighed and said to herself: "You guys are staying in the deep sea, you must really want to go home, right?"

Lan Xiaye caught the flash of confusion in Gu Guba's eyes. It seemed that the queen had not colluded with the mermaids in advance for this move.

There was still no human in the audience to talk to, and a hint of displeasure flashed in the Mermaid Queen's eyes.

Really cautious——

"Don't worry, I will let my children escort you back to the land."

As soon as the Mermaid Queen said this, the missionaries instantly became restless.

What does she want to do?

Games, games, has anything gaming related happened so far?

Lan Xiaye couldn't help but frown and looked at the Mermaid Queen.

The Queen's posture was elegant. When no one responded, she waved her hand and said, "Send them back."

Even though the mermaid prince and princess below were confused, they agreed very respectfully.

"Before we leave..." The Mermaid Queen looked at them with a smile, "Let's have one last meal."

Immediately there were mermaids all around bringing delicious meals to the table and placing them in front of everyone.

The food on the table was more exquisite and delicious than what they usually eat, but no missionaries dared to come forward to taste it.

"Why don't you eat?" The Mermaid Queen said this coldly, and everyone felt an extremely terrifying pressure.

All missionaries know that the game is formed because there are existences nearby that far exceed their upper limit of strength. In order to protect missionaries, the game's magnetic field is formed to limit their massacre of missionaries.

In other words, at the level of the Mermaid Queen, even if all the missionaries present summoned their subconscious and joined forces, they would not be able to defeat her.

The taskmaster did not dare to offend the Mermaid Queen and gave her a chance to attack. He immediately responded respectfully, picked up the tableware, and began to taste it slowly.

Lan Xiaye always felt that the Mermaid Queen was looking at her vaguely, and the meal was tasteless.

The missionaries ate very slowly and carefully, putting it into their mouths bit by bit without chewing much, deliberately prolonging the meal.

In such a depressing and weird atmosphere, the meal finally came to an end.

The Mermaid Queen once again stated that she would send humans back to land. Gu Guba pulled Lan Xiaye with doubts and said, "I'll take you back."

"You want to send me back?" Lan Xiaye always felt that the queen's move was very abnormal, and abnormality meant a trap.

Cuba stopped moving, shook his fish tail irritably, and let out a hum.

Lan Xiaye frowned involuntarily and stared at Gu Gu's side face. She seemed to feel that Gu Gu had changed a lot.

What has changed?

His expression became softer, different from the affectionate one he pretended to have in the past, but actually contained contempt and disdain for human beings.

His eyes now looking at Lan Xiaye are more equal and softer.

Very strange.

What caused such a big change in a mermaid who despised humans?

Attitudes may be acted out, but emotions cannot be acted out.

Lan Xiaye suddenly felt a very strange emotion and said something to Cuba.

"I dont want you to go."

She said this very plainly, like an actor with very poor acting skills speaking out a line.

Unexpectedly, Cuba's expression changed drastically.

"I can't bear to leave you either." He turned around and looked at Lan Xiaye, with tears in his eyes.

really--

Lan Xiaye looked at Cuba expressionlessly, Mermaid, yes, such a big reminder, why did she only find out now.

What is the story of the mermaid? The mermaid rescued the prince who fell into the sea and brought him back to the shore. However, the prince mistakenly thought that the rescuer was a princess, betraying the mermaid's love. In order to let the mermaid return to the sea, the mermaid king found a witch.

Taking out a dagger, as long as she inserts the dagger into the prince's heart, she can return to the sea.

And when Cuba first met her, he said this to Lan Xiaye.
