Chapter 379 I Want Your Brain
"You are too polite, Princess. Besides, this is an illusion, isn't it?"
Liu Chi hurriedly half refused.
Qin Xue just laughed out loud, and with a slight wave of her hand, a small table appeared between the two thrones. On the table was a pot of good tea and a few snacks, which was very simple.
"Then I, Liu, would like to thank the princess for her kindness. You're welcome!"
Liu Chi said, and immediately took action, first pouring a small cup of tea for Qin Xue,
"Go on!"
"Oh! Good!"
Qin Xue smiled sweetly at Liu Chi and continued speaking.
"As power grew, conflicts inevitably arose. When struggles broke out within my tribe, the previously obedient species began to rebel. Then humans set their eyes on my tribe's treasures. And then, alas!"
At this point, Qin Xue sighed slightly. Although she didn't say it, Liu Chi had almost guessed what was going to happen next.
"The sea tribe that lost their treasure was no longer worthy of standing on the same level as humans. They even became tools and food for humans. After that, the number of sea tribes decreased exponentially. In order to preserve their bloodline, they have been passed down to my generation and have not mixed with other species."
Liu Chi understood Qin Xue's words, and in order to verify his own thoughts, he asked,
"Could it be that now there is only one pure breed of the sea tribe?"
Qin Xue nodded.
"In order to reproduce, the quality of male mermaids among our ancestors continued to decline. I am the only one in the royal family that has survived to this day. As for the others, their lifespans have been greatly reduced and their appearances have also changed due to the continuous interbreeding of species."
Only then did Liu Chi remember why there was always something wrong with the mermaids he saw outside. Although they could be identified as mermaids at a glance from their appearance, many physical details were different.
Sharp teeth, fish tails of different colors and shapes, different scales on the body and different pupils.
At the same time, Liu Chi also understood that mermaids like Qin Xue, who look basically the same as ordinary humans, are probably the orthodox sea creatures.
"Then what is the other treasure of your sea tribe, besides the tears of Kaelia that I have here? What kind of power does it have?"
Liu Chi struck while the iron was hot and asked quickly,
"You know this, right?"
The weapon that she had just used in the battle with Liu Chi appeared in Qin Xue's hand.
"This is a replica of Kaelia's trident. Although it is a replica, it is only similar in appearance."
Kaelia's trident?
Liu Chi became puzzled and asked,
"So Kaelia is the founder of the Sea Clan? Why are both holy vessels named after her?"
Qin Xue just smiled, reached out to pick up a small piece of cake and put it into her mouth. Then the scenery in front of Liu Chi began to change like reality.
The events before the establishment of the Sea Clan were slowly played out before the two of them.
"I have read this many times. My mother passed it on to me so that the history of my people does not have to be passed on orally over and over again."
Qin Xue's voice sounded nearby, but Liu Chi ignored her and focused on watching the contents of the illusion.
The timeline for the establishment of the Sea Clan dates back tens of thousands of years, to the early days of human civilization, when magic elements were most abundant. A large number of powerful people emerged on the continent, and it was under this circumstance that the Sea Clan was established.
The decline of the sea clan can be traced back to 20,000 years ago, when they lost their treasure.
Seeing the scenery suddenly change back to the palace, Liu Chi was still not recovered, and then turned to look at Qin Xue.
"Why is there no record of the treasure after it was lost?"
"you're so dumb?"
Qin Xue pouted unhappily, "These scenes were recorded by the leaders of each generation of the Sea Clan in illusions. Only with the power of the treasure can things be completely reproduced in the illusion. Do you understand?"
Liu Chi nodded slightly. In the 40,000-year history of the sea clan, the illusion only focused on showing a few events that had a great impact on the sea clan.
Kellya, once the king of the seabed, eventually chose the path of most practitioners - entering different dimensions in pursuit of more powerful power.
"Okay, now that you know the history of our Sea Clan, you must take responsibility for the future of the Sea Clan. With Kaelia's tears, I believe we can do it!"
Qin Xue looked at Liu Chi, her tone sounding like a request and also an order. She was a little unsure whether Liu Chi would help her or not.
After meeting Qin Xue's gaze, Liu Chi lowered his head and remained silent for a long time. He understood that once he agreed, he would have to bear even more burdens on his shoulders!
Seeing Liu Chi lowering his head in silence, Qin Xue's heart began to beat faster as time went by. Her intuition told her that if she didn't do something, this life-saving straw might very likely become her enemy. After all, his original purpose was to capture mermaids.
"If you promise me, I can give myself to you. You can do whatever you want to me, as long as you can save the sea people!"
Qin Xue said this, her tone becoming excited.
Liu Chi raised his head. He was most afraid of seeing girls crying, so he was slightly stunned. At this moment, he seemed to see his father in himself.
Memories of my mother kept flashing through my mind like a revolving lantern.
"Okay, I promise you."
Liu Chi's tone was a little soft, not like that of a man. He didn't know if he could save the sea people. He just mustered up his little courage and forced himself to give it a try.
Qin Xue suddenly laughed and hugged Liu Chi.
"Thank you! Thank you! Our people are finally saved!"
Being hugged like this, Liu Chi suddenly woke up and quickly pushed the petite Qin Xue away with his hands.
"Princess, please respect yourself. I, Liu, helped you for another purpose. Our cooperation is just to get what we need."
Qin Xue suddenly realized that Liu Chi didn't seem to be very interested in her, so she asked,
"Lord Sea King, what do you need me to do now?"
An idea came to Liu Chi's mind, that is Qin Xue's brain, which contained the brain that he wanted to study.
Then he spoke,
"I want the princess's brain!"
