Steal The Mermaid

The hazy fog drifted over, shrouding the ship in a somber and dull aura, yet the mermaid remained as dazzling as ever. She was akin to a lustrous pearl emerging from the mud, incomparably beautiful, and the tears welling up in her eyes were aphrodisiac that roused the dormant greed and lust in the NPCs' hearts.

They were utterly unable to take their gazes off her, like a pack of ravenous wolves eyeing a piece of fragrant meat after a prolonged period of starvation. Fervent whispers arose within the crowd, "I heard that a mermaid's tears can turn into exquisite pearls… is that true?"

"Their blood can cure illnesses…"

"Their flesh grants eternal youth…"

"I–It seems like I have really heard about this somewhere."
