The speed dragon carried Huang Yi for a while, and soon found a broken boat on the beach, which made Huang Yi slightly happy, and the broken boat meant that there were human beings living here.
Sure enough, after going forward for a distance, some houses gradually appeared in the distance, and there were about twenty or thirty of them, which should be a small fishing village, and some voices gradually came from there. It's also in a good location, it's a small bay with some boats moored in it, making it an ideal haven.
Huang Yi was afraid that the velociraptor would scare them, so he jumped down when he approached the fishing village, put away the velociraptor and moved forward on foot.
Soon, Huang Yi entered the fishing village, at this time, the people here were drying dried fish in front of every household, and the strong smell of fish wafted in, and there were some huge conch shells hanging from the dream mouth of every house, and a gust of sea breeze blew, blowing and whining.
At this time, some fishermen with upper bodies and dark skin also spotted him, and they stopped and looked at him curiously. However, most of these people were women and children, and there were no young adults in sight.
"Excuse me, who is your village chief?" Huang Yi looked around at the crowd around him and asked.
"What do you tell me about?" At this moment, a little old man of fifty or sixty years old came out of the crowd, he was hunched, his face was full of wrinkles, but his body was still strong, it can be seen that he should have been a sailor when he was young, and it is estimated that he should have often gone to sea by now. He stared at Huang Yi with great clarity, and introduced himself: "My name is Bai Fan, I am the head of this village, and I see that you are a friend who came from afar, and you are welcome to come here." As he spoke, he looked at Huang Yi in a friendly manner.
"I've come from afar, and I'm not familiar with this place, so I'd like to ask you something." Huang Yi said politely, "Is there any suitable place to build a port here?" A harbor like your little village, the bigger the better. β
"Huh? Are you the lord of the city and want to build a city here? Bai Fan groaned, and then said: "Our best bay here is 50 kilometers to the north, but there is a war going on there, and you are afraid that you will not be able to go." β
"Huh? How can there be a war? Huang Yi frowned and asked, he didn't see any gunsmoke all the way, he should be very calm.
"Now our sea area is getting more and more dangerous, and only that port is safer, so everyone is grabbing the territory there." Bai Fan said, sighing, "Our village just failed to compete, don't you see that we are all old people and children here?" The young men have died on the battlefield. β
"How can there be danger? I think this ocean is quite normal! Huang Yi turned his head to look at the blue sea and blue sky and asked, the wind and waves here are calm, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a dangerous place.
"Because there's a Kraken here." Bai Fan said, and also turned his head to look at the endless ocean, "On the surface, it seems normal here, but in fact, there is often a terrifying kraken in that ocean, and once you encounter it, you will definitely die." Last month, a fisherman in our village went out to sea to catch a fish, but he never came back, probably because he met a sea monster. β
"Why would you fishing villages rather fight than join forces to get rid of that kraken?"
"Impossible!" Bai Fan shook his head, "We have lived here for generations, and our ancestors have passed down a legend, it is said that the kraken has existed since ancient times, and it is a strong man at the level of the Holy Domain, but at that time, the kraken rarely harmed people, and it would only appear once in hundreds of years. But in recent years, the Kraken has been haunted more and more often, and many fishermen have been killed, and even if we unite all the fishermen, we can't beat her. β
"Antiquity?" Huang Yi's heart moved, this kind of figure with historical era often means that there is a task or a huge value. Thinking of this, he immediately asked, "Is there any sign of the Kraken?" β
"None of us have ever met her, but legend has it that she is a mermaid and we can hear her singing every night here. You can listen to it for yourself in the evening. The white sail said.
"Thanks, then excuse me." Huang Yi nodded, and decided to stay here for one night to hear what the Siren's singing was like.
Next, Huang Yi waited patiently, but he didn't waste this precious time, and cΔo controlled the body and small skirt in the stronghold to fight the Tower of the Gods.
Finally, a brand new night came, every household in the fishing village lit fish oil lamps, full of warm feeling, every household in the small village is eating dinner, the smell of fish is overflowing. Huang Yi was also invited to the home by the village chief and had a dinner.
"Rollo, you take your big brother to the beach, and the Kraken will sing later." At this time, the village chief said to his grandson, who was twelve or thirteen years old.
"Good!" The little boy nodded obediently, and then left with Huang Yi.
The little boy took Huang Yi to the beach by the sea, then sat down and waited quietly.
At this time, the huge full moon and seven colorful stars hung in the starry sky, shining brightly, and the sea was quiet, only the sound of the waves sounded rhythmically.
"Big brother, are you having fun in the distance?" At this time, the little boy suddenly asked curiously.
"Well, it's fun." Huang Yi nodded, "The city there can live millions of people, there are buildings hundreds of meters high, and there are all kinds of things for sale. β
"Wow, I'd love to check it out." The little boy's eyes lit up, and he said enviously, "But my family has lived here for generations, and we have to spend our whole lives on the beach and in the sea, and I have only heard from my elders about those distant big cities, and I really want to see them." β
"Soon there will be, I'll build a port here, and then you'll be able to see what a big city is." Huang Yi touched his head and said.
"But as long as the Kraken is still there, then it is useless to build this port, no matter how big the ship is, it will be finished as soon as it touches the Kraken, unless it is a super-large warship." The little boy said kindly.
"Well, I'm afraid this Kraken is not small!" Huang Yi said, looking at the calm sea, and guessed in his heart. The Kraken has been in existence since ancient times, which reminds him of the Sand Thief King, the Sand Pirate King is a storage zΓ i that has been left over from ancient times, whether it is ancient or ancient, it is not normal to live until now. Like the Sand Pirate King, this Kraken was also tempted by the fallen king Bilev, and signed a depraved contract with the other party, gaining great power and a long life. And the kraken, which was calm before, has suddenly appeared frequently recently, which coincides with the time when the seven demon kings have been stupid recently.
The status of the Seven Demon Kings is noble, so they naturally have to appear in the finale, before that, these little minions will naturally come out first to make a fuss, just like the skeleton ocean under the command of the Sand Pirate King besieging the dragon capital, the frequent appearance of the kraken, etc., these are all tables, and most of these things happen in other continents.
"Alright, the Kraken should be about to sing." At this time, the little boy suddenly reminded him.
Huang Yi calmed down, pricked up his ears, and waited patiently.
At this moment, at the end of the dark ocean, there was a burst of singing, which was poignant and ethereal, hazy, full of mystery, and made people want to jump into the deep sea to find the source of the song.
Gradually, the song became clearer and clearer, but Huang Yi couldn't understand the meaning of the song, it should be another language, but the poignant thoughts revealed in the song could be clearly felt.
"What is the legend of this Siren?" As soon as Huang Yi heard this bleak song, he knew that this kraken must have a story.
The little boy looked at the end of the black sea and said in detail: "I heard from my grandfather that a long time ago, there was a beautiful mermaid princess in the deep sea, her name was Angela, and her singing voice was very sweet. One day she quietly left the bottom of the sea and came to the sea to sing, just when a boy on a fishing boat heard him, the boy forgot about himself and accidentally fell into the sea, and the mermaid princess rescued him, and the two fell in love ever since. However, the merfolk could not fall in love with humans, and the beautiful princess violated the laws of the sea and was imprisoned. The boy went to the place where they met over and over again, but could not wait for her to appear, and then the boy could not bear the thought anymore, and jumped out of the ocean and dived into the dark depths, but he was just an ordinary man and never appeared again. When the princess learned of this, she defected and cruised up and down in the depths of the sea, looking for her beloved, but could not find her. From then on she was no longer a beautiful mermaid princess, but became an evil kraken, and every night, she would sing on the ocean, calling out to her beloved boys, and sailors would hear this sad song. β
At this time, the song of the kraken in the ocean was still singing desolately, after listening to this story, Huang Yi felt that there was an endless longing in this song, no matter how many years passed, that kind of longing would not fade. It's a pity that no matter how many times she sings, the boy will never appear again.
"Do you know what the name of the boy in that story is?" Huang Yi asked.
"He seems to be called Leviathan, a very ordinary fishing village boy."
"Leviathan?" Huang Yi's heart moved slightly, and then he immediately took out the "Book of Heroes" and searched with a glimmer of hope, wanting to see if there was such a character.
However, he searched through the directory pages, but could not find the criminal named Leviathan. He thought about it, and Suo Xing flipped to the last part of the Book of Heroes, where was the list of heroes who had died, that is, the list of those corpses in the corpse room.
After searching for a while, his gaze suddenly stopped, and he saw the name of a corpse - ChΓ‘o Shio Hunter. Leviathan
