Chapter 632: Daughter of the Sea

Appearance-wise, this person in a black robe was not of the Mermaid race and it closely resembled a member of the Human race. However, with its face and body covered by the black robe, there was no way of telling.

The Mermaid Guardian’s HP bar was not hidden and was a pitiful 10 points.

The Mermaid Guardian pointed the staff in its hand at Li Yi, yelling, “Leave the Mermaid Sea immediately or you shall be punished!”

Unalarmed, Li Yi took out 100 Gold Coins and handed them over.

The Mermaid Guardian snorted after receiving the Gold Coins and rode off on his crab. He left a few words before leaving, “I better not see you next time!”

It was settled!

Li Yi let out a sigh of relief.

The Mermaid Guardian may only have 10 HP but if players attacked it, they would be shocked to find it untouchable as it was in constant Invincible state. Basically, players would find themselves becoming the victim …

Killing it was out of the question, but the Mermaid Guardian was known to be greedy for money. Bribing it with Gold Coins was the best way to go about.

Li Yi rode forward on his Deep-red Seahorse and it was not long before they arrived in a paradise-like water region.

The corals were pink, the beautiful seashells were singing, colorful fishes were swimming around, and waterweed curtained the scenery. Paying attention to the sounds, a wonderful melody could be heard coming from mermaids.

[You’ve entered Merland.]

Dazzling mermaids could be seen everywhere in this dream-like place. They could not compare to the Mermaid Princess but in the human world, they were all stunning and sublime beauties.

Due to Affinity, these timid mermaids fled when Li Yi swam over.

The mermaids hid within the corals, revealing half their faces to take sneak peeks as they whispered from ear to ear.

Knowing it would end up like this, Li Yi was not bothered and went on his way to a grand-looking palace.

This was home to the Mermaid Princess. Similar to palaces in the human world, the Mermaid Queen was the ruler of this part of the sea.

There was no guard at the front gate, so Li Yi entered without obstruction.

Deep within the magnificent palace, lay the Mermaid Queen in exquisite and dazzling wear on a long couch. She got up at the appearance of Li Yi.

Staring straight into the Mermaid Queen’s eyes, Li Yi’s body froze like a statue.

The Mermaid Queen, much like the three heroes of the human world, was a powerful Territory user.

“Deceitful humans are unwelcome in Merland.”

The Mermaid Queen merely lifted her arm and a Space Portal emerged before Li Yi. Advocates of peace and the complete opposite of the bloodshed loving Nagas, mermaids were merciful towards their enemy. They would not resort to violence unless absolutely necessary.

Li Yi’s body was slowly dragged into the Space Portal. His trip here would be in vain if he were to step foot in there as he could be teleported to any corner of the world, except around the Mermaid Sea.

Li Yi may have his movement restricted, but he could still talk.

“Your Highness the Queen, I have news about the Mermaid Princess!”

“Szh szh…”

With the Mermaid Queen’s lips pressed together, the Space Portal trembled. It was obvious she was concerned about the Mermaid Princess.

The Mermaid Princess was different from the Black Dragon Princess, Onyxia. The latter was a map boss so the next Black Dragon Princess would respawn even if she was subdued by Li Yi. Other players could still gain the Black Dragon Princess as a mount.

The Mermaid Princess, on the other hand, was not a map boss. Visible to players of every camp, she would be Friendly on first sight. Of course, Li Yi was the exception.

Most importantly, the Mermaid Princess was a unique existence. In other words, once she was captured as a mount, there would not be another Mermaid Princess. There was only one in King of Pantheon.

With the Space Portal gone, the Mermaid Queen stared at Li Yi without saying a word.

She was waiting for Li Yi’s reply.

“I saw the Mermaid Princess in the North Pole Continent. She asked for my help…”

Li Yi made up line after line of lies. Of course, it was not complete nonsense. He had facts to back it up.

In order to sound convincing, he took out a leaf cover obtained from the Mermaid Princess and presented it to the Mermaid Queen.

The Mermaid Queen was hot with emotion, “This is indeed my daughter’s. Was… was she in danger? Why hasn’t she returned to seek help instead of… asking a human?”

“She was captured by a devil named Hotstuff and locked up in a frozen lake in the North Pole Continent…”

The Mermaid Queen believed in Li Yi’s bluff with the Mermaid Princess’ bra as proof.

“The Mermaid Princess told me that if I could bring her the treasure of the mermaids, the devil named Hotstuff would let her go.”

The Mermaid Queen was in shock and unconsciously felt the necklace around her neck.

Most NPCs forces in King of Pantheon were in possession of a divine item, such as the Tuhrs’ Tuhr Sacred Sword, the Dwarfs’ Encyclopaedia of Engineering, etc.

The mermaids had in their possession a divine item similar to the Tuhr Sacred Sword, however, it was not a weapon, but a necklace called the Sea Royal’s Sanctuary.

The shiny necklace around Mermaid Queen’s neck was the Sea Royal’s Sanctuary.

“The treasure of the mermaids relates to the rise and fall of our people. Even as the Mermaid Queen, I can’t act on my will… Freya, I hope you won’t resent me…”

Ding!

Then came a beep from the System.

[The Affinity between you and the Mermaid Queen has increased by 500 points. The Mermaid Race’s Reputation Value is activated and their attitude towards you is currently Friendly.]

Li Yi let out a relieved sigh, having achieved his purpose of lying.

It was unlikely to obtain the Sea Royal’s Sanctuary just by lying. It was not called a divine item for nothing. Li Yi’s real motive was to activate the Mermaid Race’s Reputation Value.

“Human, could you take me along to the North Pole Continent?”

“What?”

Fixating her gaze on the leaf cover, The Mermaid Queen added, “I wish to personally make the trip to the North Pole Continent to find my daughter…”

Li Yi’s jaw dropped.

Could he lure the Mermaid Queen out of the Mermaid Sea? Judging by her tone, she was not kidding…

“Ding!”

[Do you accept the Mermaid Queen’s Daughter of the Sea quest?]

Accept!

Li Yi was pleased. He would be stupid not to accept.

The Mermaid Queen nodded at the acceptance of the quest, “Do you remember the coordinates to the frozen lake? Please tell me.”

Seeing the Mermaid Queen’s palms were glowing with magic, Li Yi’s tongue was in a knot.

It appeared that the Mermaid Queen was intent on using her magic to create a teleportation door to North Pole Continent.

The Mermaid Princess was still in his backpack. He would be letting the cat out of the bag if he were to utter the coordinates.

“I… don’t remember the coordinates, only the way.”

“Oh…” the Mermaid Queen nodded and the magic in her palms vanished.

“Very well then.”

The Mermaid Queen took out a white scroll and handed it over to Li Yi.

“Head to that place and when you find the Mermaid Princess, tear this scroll and I shall appear.”

[Congratulations! You’ve obtained the Mermaid Queen Luna Summoning Scroll!]

Summoning Scroll!

With his heart missing a beat, Li Yi stored the white scroll.

“I’m feeling weary, human. I hope you are able to head to the North Pole Continent as soon as possible.”

The Mermaid Queen lowered her head at Li Yi, revealing her snowy deep cleavage. Compared to her daughter, her bosoms were definitely magnificent.

Li Yi walked out of the palace.

With the Mermaid Race’s Reputation Value up and running, the mermaids who earlier fled at the sight of Li Yi quieted down. No longer scurrying away, they flashed him a friendly smile.

There were mermaid stationery shops, mermaid weaponry merchants, mermaid accessory merchants, mermaid potion sellers, mermaid chefs, etc. The variety was pretty comprehensive.

The items they sold left Li Yi amazed followed by thrilling sensations.

He could not purchase the equipment sold by the mermaid weaponry and accessory merchants accessory due to his inadequate level. However, the potions sold by the potion sellers did not have this restriction, such as the market’s rare find, Sacred Series Potions — Sacred Tranquility to recover 30% HP, Sacred Hope to recover 30% mana, etc. were for 3 Gold Coins each.

The reason Li Yi was thrilled was not this but rather a Sacred Breath Potion Refining Guidebook sold by the mermaid potion seller.

The purchase requirement of Sacred Breath Potion Refining Guidebook was level 100 and 3 million Gold Coins.

Sacred Breath Potion could simultaneously increase HP and mana by 30%. This potion was a God-tiered potion and if Li Yi wished to become a Legendary-level Apothecarist, successful refining upon attaining this guidebook would secure him the upgrade.

Without thinking further, Li Yi spent 3 million Gold Coins to buy a Sacred Breath Refining Guidebook.

Slapping his hands together, he mastered the method of refining Sacred Breath. Nevertheless, Li Yi cursed under his breath after he went through the list of crafting materials.

The formula was not hard to follow but the materials were something else. Totaling eleven items, it ranged from Golden Arrowfish Gut to Spirit Fish Bone.

“D*mn it, that’s the pits…”

With his level only at Level 100, how could he possibly kill Golden Arrowfish and Spirit Fish?

With 3 million Gold Coins going down the drain, Li Yi felt dejected and started to purchase Sacred Tranquility and Sacred Hope in bulks.

They were selling at 3 Gold Coins each and most importantly, they were all tradable.

Li Yi was sneaky; he summoned his personal robot to stuff the potions in it to mail away so that his backpack’s inventory was not occupied. That way, he could purchase limitlessly…

Go big or go home. Rather than a small fortune, he would rather earn a huge fortune!

“Thank you for your patronage… Thank you for your patronage… Thank you for your patronage… Thank you for your patronage…”

Smiling broadly, the mermaid potion seller kept nodding at Li Yi in gratitude. She would never know that the person before her was a sneakier tradesman than she would ever be…

“Ding!”

[The Affinity between you and mermaid potion seller has increased by 1 point…]

[The Affinity between you and mermaid potion seller has increased by 10 points…]

As Li Yi purchased potions, the mermaid potion seller’s Affinity towards him was on a rise…
