559, Mermaids! Have you ever heard of them?! [Second Update]_1

Poseissi raised legitimate counter-questions.

Lin Yi, "Of course. Take it if you want."

After thanking him, Poseissi immediately crouched down to examine the jars on the ground.

These glass jars no longer looked as delicate as they initially did, now showing traces of char from being scorched by flames. Poseissi paused, somewhat unwilling to imagine what had happened, considering she had only turned away for a moment.

Could there be any marks on my back? She wondered with a surprised expression.

Once Poseissi stored the jars away in her storage device, Lin Yi waved his hand, dissolving the barrier he had set up around them.

The crowd, bored of waiting, swiftly turned their gazes upon them.

They saw the indifferent Lin Yi, the slightly flush-faced Poseissi; and with a bit of imagination, they seemed to guess what might have occurred between them.

Thousand Waves furrowed his brow tightly, "Xi Xi's skirt has a speck of dust on the side and one more crease than usual, suggesting that she has kneeled down."

Tang Chen also had a serious look on his face, "Xi Xi's collar is skewed a few centimeters to the left, her clothes... have been removed."

The two of them then fell into a brief silence.

It was Thousand Waves who first broke the silence with a laugh, "What are we worried about? It's only been a few minutes. Taking off clothes and kneeling must be necessary operations. Hahaha!"

He laughed and then abruptly stopped.

Wait, what actions require taking off clothes and kneeling...

"She seems somewhat different now."

The Sea God of the Divine Realm narrowed his eyes, silently observing Poseissi's condition, and suddenly commented.

The Evil God nodded, "There's a subtle change in her aura. She has probably broken through the upper limits of strength in Soul Land, hasn't she?"

At level 99, one is already at a demi-god level, and the now doubly powerful Poseissi could rival the position of a divine official in the Divine Realm.

She tidied up her clothes once more on the stage, but just then, a purple handkerchief suddenly fell from her, which Poseissi caught steadily and put away without changing her expression.

Bi Bidong's expression shifted, that was Senior Lin Yi's belonging!

It was her gift to Lin Yi!

How did it end up on Poseissi!

What exactly happened between them in those few minutes?!

The conversation between Tang Chen and Thousand Waves had reached her ears, and now Bi Bidong was truly unsettled.

She had served Lin Yi so devotedly, believing that Lin Yi could only belong to her, and no one else was allowed to take him away. Anyone who tried would become her enemy.

She had just "dealt" with her "number one enemy" Qian Renxue, and now was Poseissi from her own team popping up as well?

Bi Bidong was instantly overwhelmed; Poseissi, with her two overly devoted admirers, wouldn't be easy to handle.

...

On the stage, Poseissi commenced her second attack.

Knowing her strength was now incomparably greater, she decided to try some weaker soul skills to see their effects.

Upon releasing her Martial Soul, Poseissi, as the Sea God, always had a divine aura as if a god was descending each time she did so, a sensation much stronger than Thousand Waves' Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.

A golden glow fell with the sound of surging waves, forming a Sea God phantom behind Poseissi. She looked down at her surroundings with authority, her beautiful eyes trembling slightly as she looked at Lin Yi, then returning to solemnity.

Her fourth soul ring slowly ascended from her body.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Ocean of Oblivion!"

A magic wand appeared in Poseissi's hand, she raised her right hand high, the phantom of the Sea God behind her vanished, replaced by the vast expanse of the ocean.

Dark blue waves churned, white foam leapt dozens of meters high, as if harboring a fierce beast, and Poseissi stood as the master of both the beast and the ocean.

Thousand Waves always believed that if the battle were at sea, Poseissi's strength would increase by at least another thirty percent, for then it would not be just a phantom ocean but the truly majestic sea behind her!

All the waves surged toward Lin Yi, the water seeming to solidify, filling the air with dense moisture and the salty sea breeze.

Lin Yi was enveloped by the massive volume of seawater, being compressed. This was originally a mass offensive soul skill, but now it was being applied solely to him.

It wasn't long before the attack ended, and the majestic ocean was instantly retracted by Poseissi. After Lin Yi experienced a damage rebound, Poseissi once again sent waves surging forward. When they collided, the ocean turned into mist filling the air, and the damage rebound shattered into fragments.

Lin Yi looked at the panel.

[Blood Loss: 446789]

[Remaining Health: 883054206748]

[Damage Level: Red (High Grade)]

[Random Reward: Mermaid Singers *1000]

[Host Reward: Mermaid Singers *10000]

What does this mean, the reward is giving me a thousand mermaids?

Really, Lin Yi had never seen a mermaid before, the kind of creature that only existed in various fairy tales and science fiction movies.

He opened the description to check, and it was indeed as he thought, giving Poseissi a thousand mermaids.

F*ck!

Where to keep them?

Near Sea God's Island?

Forget it, how the reward is handled has nothing to do with me.

Lin Yi said to Poseissi, "Damage 446789, Red Advanced level, your reward is a thousand Mermaid Singers, which are a thousand singing mermaids."

Tang Chen's eyes widened, "A Fourth Soul Skill actually did 446,789 damage?? Did I hear that right?!"

Hearing the surprise, Poseissi showed a happy expression.

She then frowned in confusion, "What is a mermaid?"

"I know!"

A child's voice came from the side; it turned out to be Little Golden Crocodile raising his hand high.

Lin Yi remembered that this guy had a reward of Andersen's fairy tales, with that book he could enter the world of Andersen's fairy tales anytime.

"Mermaids are creatures that are half fish and half human!"

Thousand Waves took out paper and a pen from nowhere and drew a picture to show Little Golden Crocodile.

But the little guy immediately shook his head, "She has a human upper body and a fish lower body, and mermaids don't have sparrows! They are a very beautiful species, the mermaids!"

"Pfft!"

The Third Offeror couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Little Golden Crocodile immediately turned back to look at him with an indignant look, "What are you laughing at! You, who likes to bully women!"

The Third Offeror, expressionless: "I was not laughing."

"You were obviously laughing!"

Lin Yi was dumbfounded. Are you guys acting out the movie "The Mermaid" here?!

"You can decide the gender of the mermaids at will, you decide whether these thousand mermaids are male or female, or how many men and how many women."

Lin Yi said to Poseissi.

She pondered silently for a moment before making a decision, "Let them all be female; I've never seen one, but somehow I feel that such a creature is more fitting as female."

Lin Yi nodded, "They have one special skill, which is singing."

PS. Let me explain why there's no third update today. It's because of the ranking. I was third yesterday, but today I dropped to fourth, which was unexpected. I didn't see it coming, and I'd planned to do a third update if I was in third place, but now I don't have the motivation for that, so I'll continue with two updates until there's a change in ranking. (And the ranking I'm talking about is not the platform's member ranking; I know I'm first on that one.)

Also… I'm going to brazenly ask for rewards. Rewards really help a lot when pushing for rankings, thank you.
