I Became a God in a Horror Game - Chapter 17

[Chapter 17 Siren Town]
Sailors lowered their nets on either side of the boat, muttering strangely.
Bai Liu only heard the gift of the Siren King or something, and Jerph stood by the side of the boat and looked down, with a strange and crazy expression on his face: “They are praying to the Siren King, praying that the Siren King bestows Their plump mermaids.”
Before Jeff’s voice could finish, the sailors by the boat pulled the edge of the net and jumped down one by one. Lucy screamed in fright: “What are they doing?! They’re not trying to catch mermaids. Why? Why did they jump down on their own?”
Bai Liu said with a light expression: “They are fishing for mermaids.” After
a long time, a huge net slowly floated under the sea, and the huge net was filled with fragmented limbs and fish tails. , more than a dozen mermaids were trapped in the net, all in a state of death, and the fish tails were rotten and stuck to the top.
The dozen or so mermaids are like dolls in the garbage heap, twisted into a certain posture in the net, their eyes are fixed on the people on the boat, their faces are still grim or frightened, and their bodies are full of bite marks , like being bitten by some ferocious deep-sea fish and thrown into the net.
Bai Liu looked at the faces of these smashed [mermaids] under the light of the searchlight, breathing slowly and lightly.
The faces of these mermaids were exactly the same as those of the twelve missing tourists in the newspaper.
The sailors on the boat were whispering happily:
“They will be made into wax figures and sent to the wax museum…”
“But there will only be four wax figures coming out of the wax museum tonight, because there are only four tourists, and the excess is salvaged. What about those mermaids?”
“Let’s put them in the bottom warehouse first, you can satisfy our hunger first…” The
caught mermaids were quickly sent to the rear, and I don’t know where they were transported.
The three tourists, Bai Liu, could eat some fresh common sea fish that were caught along with the mermaid, and soon these sea fish were prepared and sent to Bai Liu.
These sea fish also seem to be contaminated with the smell of mermaid, and the taste is extraordinarily strange when they are cooked.
Except for Bai Liu, the three people were sucking their fingers on the fish meat that was brought out and feasting wildly.
The sashimi steak made of fish was pushed to the center, and the wet fish head was chewed by Lucy. Lucy ate so quickly that even the hair on her cheek was eaten.
Lucy fiddled with the oil-stained hair from her mouth and smiled at Bai Liu: “Bai Liu, why don’t you come and eat, tonight’s fish is really fresh.”
The small white eyes of the fish head in Lucy’s hand He stared at Bai Liu with uneasy eyes.
Andre was biting a fish tail in his hand, and his teeth were snapping sharply. He had become very fish-like. His eyes were almost invisible from the front. They were located on both sides of his face. His nose was completely shriveled and too wide. There was a stench of birth fluid dripping from the corners of his mouth.
Jeff used a fork to cut open the fat belly of the fish. He seemed to be able to maintain his sanity, but his subordinates moved faster and faster, mechanically stuffing the fish into his mouth.
The sailors stared at Bai Liu, they put the plate full of fish meat in front of Bai Liu forcefully, and showed a strange smile: “If you don’t eat fresh fish, you are here for nothing, Mr. Bai.”
Bai Liu wanted to refuse .
, but an instruction popped up again on the panel in front of him:
[Task reminder: Do not eat the fish presented by the sailors, the fishing and watching activities will be considered a failure]
Bai Liu was silent for two seconds and ate a piece.
The entrance of this sea fish meat has a very strange sour and rotten taste, but when the meat crosses the throat, it turns into a fresh and sweet taste of normal sea fish meat.
All the fish meat in front of Bai Liu has become a strange temptation. Even a person like Bai Liu who has always had a low appetite, he can’t control the fish meat on the table and wants to eat nonsense. impulse.
The sailor saw that he had eaten and left with satisfaction.
Bai Liu tried his best to keep his head sober, not to look at the fish on the table, stood up on the beach blowing the sea breeze, lowered his head and sniffed the metal smell of the coin in his heart.
The smell of coins calmed Bai Liu.
He could probably deduce something.
After the Siren King was salvaged, he fell into a deep sleep and lost some ability to this sea area. As a result, people who died in this sea area would turn into mermaids, come back to life, and return to the world. This is actually a legend. story, but the mermaid corpses of the twelve tourists just now verified the authenticity of this legend.
People who die here can indeed become mermaids.
But the question is why in such a remote and small sea area, why can so many merman turned into dead people be produced, and it is not enough to fill the entire wax museum?
Why are there so many dead people in this sea area?
When Bai Liu saw the twelve salvaged tourist mermaids, he finally understood why this sea area produced so many mermaids.
Because this is a dumping ground.
The bodies of those missing tourists are estimated to have been thrown into this sea area, and then salvaged by these sailors as some kind of large fish, turned into mermaids and watered into wax statues.
But I just don’t know who killed those tourists…
Bai Liu has a vague guess in his heart, this is a town with a nature of robbery, and most of the missing tourists in this town have lost property. As can be seen in the case of robbery and disappearance, Siren Town is not a place with very simple folk customs.
The town got rich not so much from tourism, but from the robbery that comes with tourism.
Are there any lambs fatter than tourists from afar?
In such a vicious place where so many tourists died, Bai Liu tended to be the tourists who were robbed and assassinated and then dumped their bodies into this place. Of course, it was not ruled out that the mermaids came ashore to hunt and kill.
However, judging from the habit of mermaids to be afraid of strong light, it is estimated that it is difficult to go ashore to hunt tourists during the day. At night, in the popular tourist season of Siren Town, these mermaids are all to be caught and provided for tourists to watch. Mermaid The probability of killing people is not high…
Wait, the white willows are so fiercely connected – the
mermaid fishing activity is to catch the mermaid if someone here dies in this sea area, and there will be no mermaid if there are no dead people here.
For example, Bai Liu and the others caught the tourists who went missing last time…
The residents of this town may have deliberately murdered, dumped their corpses, raised them into mermaids, and then used it as a gimmick for mermaid fishing. industry to attract more tourists and make it easier for them to loot.
No wonder the keeper of the museum said that without tourists, there would be no mermaid fishing activities, and the mermaids caught were all dead tourists.
The mayor here is a guy who loves his people like a son.
In order to promote economic development and cover up the crimes of the townspeople, to prevent the townspeople’s criminal records from being discovered, and to further expand this [mermaid tourism], Bai Liu felt that the mayor of the town could totally do a good job of catching the merman, or It is said that the corpse is irrigated to make a wax figure and put it in the wax museum, or the operation is directly handled by the residents.
Of course, it was impossible for the police to fish or find any corpses. The corpses were all disposed of and poured into the wax figure.
Those merman wax figures are irrigated with the bodies of the previous tourists, and the ghosts of the previous tourists are imprisoned inside, and these ghosts have turned into monsters. In order to get revenge, they began to incubate the residents of the town with a curse, turning these residents into them. amulet.
In the process of alienation, the residents will become like fish, and the mermaid wax figure will become an adult, and the two will exchange identities.
In this way, the amulet in the warehouse below is actually the townspeople of Siren Town, and the sailors on this ship are all ghosts who died in the deep sea. They are no longer human, but monsters.
According to this inference, there is one more thing.
The mermaid wax figure has three forms: pupa, cocoon, and butterfly, but Bai Liu narrowed his eyes. According to the law of growth, the mermaid wax figure still lacks the same state, that is, larvae, the most numerous and most vulnerable larvae.
And the larva is…
Bai Liu slowly covered his belly, and the piece of fish he just ate seemed to be squirming wetly on his stomach wall. Bai Liu looked at his fingers that were beginning to glow with blue and white, and the faint lines of fish scales on his skin. , he could feel the sides of his mandible start to itch, and he had the illusion that gills were about to grow.
He turned around slowly, and the three people who came with him were still eating frantically, almost losing their human form, especially Andre.
He almost fell on the table and slammed something into his mouth, his hair had turned into bone spurs that stood up like fins, and the bridge of his nose was covered with dark green fish scales.
[Warning: Player Bai Liu has entered a state of alienation, and his mental value is declining. Please pay attention to distinguish between game reality and game illusion]
Bai Liu thought in his heart, this is the last monster in the monster book, this is the last form of the mermaid wax figure, the larval state .
Any tourists who enter Siren Town, or residents who do not leave in Siren Town, will be alienated into this kind of thing, a form that is the weakest and most easily eaten, slaughtered and robbed.
And the white willow is now the weakest form of the mermaid wax figure, the larval form.

Andre wiped the carrion foam on his mouth and pushed the table away. His mouth had turned into those kind of fine and sharp teeth. The mouth had been running through the entire chin. It was as big as a clown, and there was bloody fish in it. At the end, he fell as he spoke: “Bai Liu, do you still remember our bet?”
Bai Liu was attracted by the unique scent of Andre’s body, he slowly blinked his eyes: “I remember, in Staying overnight on the boat, right?”
Andre cracked a hideous smile, cracked to the back of his head, and then stretched out his long tongue to lick the flesh on the side of his face: “Why don’t we just stay in this sea full of mermaids? Are you going to spend the night?”
