The Defeated Dragon

Between the reefs.

The giant conch shell flashes a magical light, and a woman sits on it with a pale green, seemingly transparent, opaque water belt covering important areas, and her body also has an intense magical light.

Magic light of water attribute.

“Are you looking for us? ”

After seeing Lester and Archer, the woman asked lightly.

She speaks the language.

It doesn't look old, it's just like a woman in her thirties with long green hair on her back. Ears, forehead, shoulders, elbows, hips, and calves have a clear fish-finned structure, similar to that of Acura, although Acura does not have as many fish-fins.

Most exaggerated was her back, with butterfly-shaped giant fin wings that gently flattened the circular currents.

Overall, she is more demonic than Archer, but less anthropomorphic, with a large number of fin-shaped transparent structures undermining aesthetics and some slight areas of skin with scale-like structures.

Her color is generally green.

Archer is blue hair and blue pupils.

By comparison, Acura has only a small amount of clear fishfin-shaped structure, and the skin is delicately white and shiny, better than the skin of a human baby. It is more anthropomorphic and therefore more in line with human aesthetics than the “old sea monster” in front of it.

However.

The sea monster has complete feet and exquisite style.

Imagine what a wonderful picture it would be if Archer had legs as well.

“Hello, I am a human knight. Are you a sea monster?” Lister rides on Rose's back, smiling graciously, “the little girl beside me, who is also a sea monster. ”

Archer was not very enthusiastic about the sea demon in front of him, but simply greeted him: "Hello. ”

The old sea demon glanced at Archer and turned to Lester: “Young human knight, I am indeed a sea demon. What brings you here… I have not seen humans in many years, not even ships with sapphire past. ”

“Sapphire?” Lister's eyes shine, "you know the Grand Duchy of Sapphire? ”

“When I was freely roaming the ocean, the sapphire had not yet been founded, and at that time there was no ship at sea, except for the ancient wreck. It's the sapphire that brings so many ships that the ocean starts to get busy.” Old sea demons don't look old, but the story is centuries old.

Lester said that the tone of breath changed from time to time: "May I ask how many years have you experienced so far? ”

“More than 400 summers and winters, I can't remember clearly. ”

More than 400 years old.

It's a living fossil!

By the adult time of Archer, the sea demon has a lifespan of about 400 years.

Lester knew that the sea demon in front of him was the one he was looking for on the Smoke Mission, and he couldn't help but be more enthusiastic: “It's a pleasure to meet the distinguished sea demon elder, my name is Lester Tulip, a Viscount of the Grand Duchy of Sapphire. Would you be fortunate to know your name? ”

“My name…” The old sea demon raised his head and looked at the reflecting moon on the water, with the instant fainting, "Aphrodite Hector Sinethea Tessis Nimothemis Parsefonie… Sterop Briseis. ”

“Eh.”

Lister's mouth smoked. Why does every sea monster give himself a name that is more than two hundred words long: “Your name is as long as my sister's name, her name is...” He turned his head and looked at Archer, seemingly unable to remember Archer's full name.

Acura was very understanding and quickly said his name: “My name is Tanahisti Urapatini Seleno Lycatea Forkus Buniseis… Cassandra Acura Roydes. But I've changed my name to Achilles Roydes Truth, you can call me Achilles. ”

“Truth… you are a sea demon magician?” The old sea demon was surprised, but with her eyes shifting slightly on Lester and Archer, she probably understood, "I've also learned magic before, but unfortunately only a few simple magics. ”

With a common topic, chatting is no longer awkward.

Lister laughed: "Archer is a great magician. ”

“Great Magician, such a young Great Magician of the Sea, is rare indeed.” The old sea demon nods softly, "you can call me Ethe. ”

“Ise Elder. ”

“Haisheng Haisheng Haisheng, it's not as complicated as your human secular relationship. Just call me by my name. ”

Lister was like, “Okay, Ethe. ”

As a result, the meetup has been completed, the conversation that follows gradually turns into Lester's constant questioning, and Iss answers him with more than four hundred years of her life. Though his attitude has not been too cold, Iss is not impatient with Lester.

Arjun listened quietly.

“Ethe, I am curious about the sea monster, especially my sister Archer, who is also a sea monster, but she is very young and needs to learn a lot, and I hope you can help teach her.” The attitude of seeing each other was very cooperative, and Lister took advantage of the opportunity to make a request.

More like trying to take this sea monster to live in your own territory.

Yet Iss replied: “The sea demon does not need to be taught. Each sea demon has its own growth trajectory. It is the significance of the existence of the sea demon to experience all sorrowful divorces on the ocean. ”

Archer also said: "Brother, Archer wants to grow up on his own. ”

Lester was a little confused about the cold reaction of the two sea monsters to each other. Archer is reasonably kind and simple, and Ise has a very peaceful personality. Being a creature of the same race, even if the two of them do not “tear at home", they will not be so indifferent.

But in fact, from the very beginning, when searching for a sea monster, Archer did not have any passion for the unknown sea monster.

Perhaps some kind of temperament on the sea monster excludes each other.

He was going to go back and ask Archer, and now it's not easy to mention it directly, so he shifted the subject: "Iss, we came to this sea to discover an ancient monument, wondering if you could guide us in the direction of the ancient monument? ”

“Ancient relics, you mean the ruins of the fish's ugly temple. ”

“Fish Ugly Temple? ”

Lester heard a new word, "fish ugly”, in the style, referring to "monsters like fish but ugly”.

Iss stretched out her slender arm, shallow-like fingers, pointing southeast: “Swim about 50 kilometers from here, with a square coral reef. Thirty kilometres further south from Coral Island, there is a 100-metre deep submarine puddle buried in the rubble of the Fish Ugly Temple. ”

She added: "There is a mighty Undead Fish Ugly, guarding the Temple of the Fish Ugly, and I advise you not to step in easily. ”
