Chapter 867: Power of Sea God!
"Him?"
The King and Queen looked suspiciously at Qin Feng, knitting their brows, "A human??"
Obviously.
From their eyes, a trace of loathing towards humans could be seen.
"He belongs to the Huaxia Eastern Border Army."
Nami explained.
Upon hearing this, the King and Queen felt slightly less aversion towards him.
There were plenty of humans who had slaughtered them.
But they had also heard that there is a troop in the human world dedicated to capturing those who commit heinous acts in the East Sea Domain. It was the Huaxia Eastern Border Army.
"He shares the same goal as us, which is preventing anyone from finding the Golden Spear! For the sake of the East Sea, for the world!"
Nami continued.
"Since he is from the Eastern Border Army, we can trust him. But, what is the plan?" the King asked.
"He is seriously injured now and needs the 'Divine Pearl' to recover. Once he recovers, he can stop my uncle. However, I did not find the 'Divine Pearl' in the treasury," Nami said.
The King sighed lightly and said, "'Divine Pearl,' there are only three. Earlier, one was taken by the human Deuterium Emperor whom Carlo brought, and the remaining two, I believe Carlo has taken them."
"What? Then what should we do?"
Nami's heart sank.
Without the "Divine Pearl," Qin Feng's severe injuries would be difficult to heal in a short time, and he won't have the strength to stop Carlo!
"Daughter."
The King spoke earnestly at this moment, saying, "I have been waiting here for you to impart the power of our Mermaid Clan's Guardian God to you, so that you can stop Carlo."
"The power of the Guardian God?" Nami was puzzled.
"Yes, Sea God Kaijin, the Guardian God of our Mermaid Clan and the East Sea. In Ancient Times, he closed the 'Dark Gate' with the Golden Spear, and before his sacrifice, he left behind a trace of Divine Power so that at crucial moments, our Mermaid Clan could protect the Golden Spear!"
"Our Mermaid Clan has lived and thrived in the desolate and remote 'World's End' for generations to guard the 'Golden Spear.'
"The Golden Spear is at the world's end."
"Only the King of each generation knows this. Later, it was my fault for mentioning it while drinking with your uncle Carlo, which led to the later disaster."
"He holds us here without killing us, intending to gain the Divine Power someday."
"In short, our Mermaid Clan is also known as the 'Guardian Tribe.'
"Now, it is necessary to use the Divine Power."
"..."
Nami was stunned after hearing this.
Unexpectedly, the Mermaid Clan is also the ocean's 'Guardian Tribe,' carrying such a mission.
"What should I do then?"
She asked hurriedly.
The King turned his gaze to the Queen.
The loving Queen took off the Jade hairpin she had been wearing. It emitted a gentle sheen, very beautiful.
"Drip your blood on it, then smash it, and that's all," the Queen said. "According to ancient records, it's said that after being stained with the Blood of Young Man, and then the jade shatters, the power will emerge."
Nami took the Jade hairpin, hesitated for a moment, then bit her finger.
A drop of crystal-clear Blood Pearl dripped onto it.
Immediately.
The Jade hairpin shone with an extremely dazzling light!
The light was blinding, giving a sense of warmth and grandeur, invoking reverence and familiarity!
"Now, smash the Jade hairpin!"
The King said.
Nami exerted force with both hands and broke the Jade hairpin in half.
Suddenly!
A green glow emitted from the inside of the Jade hairpin, like curling blue smoke, enveloping Nami's body.
The strange energy aura tentatively brushed against Nami as if validating the activation's owner.
After confirming it was Nami.
All of the energy surged into Nami's body!
"Ah—!!"
Nami screamed in pain, her head tilted back as she felt the energy penetrating every cell and entering her body.
Gradually.
The surface of her body also emitted a faint green glow.
The pattern of "Scale Armor" occasionally appeared on the snow-white skin of her upper body.
More astonishingly.
Her fish tail occasionally flashed into two beautiful, slender, snow-white human legs!
But.
Her expression was extremely painful.
Like enduring thousands of swords piercing her heart.
"What, what's going on?"
The King and Queen couldn't help but worry.
Nami appearing in such pain was clearly abnormal.
Qin Feng, seeing this, quickly grasped her wrist, closed his eyes, and examined the state of the energy within her.
Although not quite the same as human structure.
But Qin Feng could sense the turmoil of the energy and opened his eyes, saying, "The situation is dire, that energy is not compatible with her body. The energy is trying various ways to enter her body, while her body's cells are strongly rejecting it. In other words, she is in dire straits and will be in mortal danger if this continues!"
The King and Queen were shocked: "What should we do now!!"
The Jade hairpin containing the Sea God's power has been passed down for generations; they had never used it before and were unaware of its implications.
Currently, Nami appeared increasingly pained.
It seemed she could barely hold on.
Qin Feng frowned at this moment and said, "I can try."
Then.
He embraced Nami's shoulders and kissed her directly!
"Hey! How dare you, human! What are you doing!!" the King raged.
Seeing his daughter in such agony and then being taken advantage of by a human, he was beyond furious.
Unexpectedly.
While cursing, suddenly the radiance on Nami's body stopped being so dazzling!
Furthermore.
Nami was like a soothed kitten, gradually calming down, and her expression was no longer pain-stricken.
"This, this..."
The King was puzzled.
The Queen had a flash of insight at this moment and exclaimed, "I understand!"
"What do you mean?"
"Your Majesty, the ancient records mention 'the Blood of Young Man' to activate the Sea God's power. 'Young Man' indicates a male! But Nami is in the 'daughter's body, perhaps causing a conflict!"
"That seems logical..."
The King suddenly realized, yet still looked sourly at Qin Feng kissing Nami, saying, "But what does this have to do with him taking advantage of my darling daughter?"
"This... I don't know either."
The Queen also observed Qin Feng and Nami.
Seeing her daughter kissed by a stranger in front of her, she felt extremely uncomfortable!
However.
After being kissed, her daughter was no longer in such pain.
She wanted to stop it, yet couldn't.
Her heart was in turmoil.
Then.
The Queen noticed the peculiar radiance on Nami transferring partially to Qin Feng!
"Could it be... he's taking the pain in her place? Like absorbing the strange energy, making her not suffer."
The Queen muttered.
"It seems so..."
On second thought.
This man clearly saw her suffer immensely due to absorbing the energy, yet he actively diverted the energy to himself. He is... a benefactor indeed!"
Thinking this.
The King no longer felt his daughter was taken advantage of, but considered Qin Feng courageous...
