Chapter 417: Sea Devil Hyder
"Is this deep sea silver?"
At this time, in the cell, Tang San stroked the black railing at the entrance of the cave, and noticed its material. He couldn't help but exclaimed, "Such precious materials are used to make this thing, it's a waste of resources!"
You know, deep sea silver is an important material for Tang San to make the Torrential Pear Blossom Needles!
If combined with soul guide inscriptions, the power of the Torrential Pear Blossom Needles might be comparable to or even surpass the Buddha's Wrath Lotus!
But this mermaid under the sea actually polished it into a railing so simply and roughly——
What a waste.
"Waste of resources? Not really. Perhaps for the mermaids, this material is only this useful." Zhou Qing didn't think so. He just thought that the mermaid civilization was still very primitive. After all, in the era when humans ate raw meat and drank blood, they only regarded gold as a stone with a strange color.
However, since the mermaids were able to polish the deep-sea sunken silver into railings, it proved that there were many deep-sea sunken silver deposits in this area, and the mermaids had the corresponding polishing skills.
As he was talking, Zhou Qing noticed that in the huge undercurrent vortex channel outside, another team of mermaids came with a large ship. The people who fainted inside were wrapped in bubbles by the mermaids and imprisoned in a cell near them.
At this point, Zhou Qing also realized something and turned back to Ariel and asked, "I don't think they're trying to catch you. I've seen the style of that ship at the Hanhai City port."
"It is indeed a ship from the Vast Sea City, the Sea Devil, and the captain is named Haider." Ariel didn't understand what the mermaids were trying to do, but she also introduced the basic information of the ship and the captain.
"Sea Devil, Haider..."
Zhou Qing frowned slightly, feeling that these two names sounded familiar...
correct!
Isn’t this the boat that the Shrek Seven Devils rented when they went out to sea in the original novel?
Haider himself is a pirate, a member of the Purple Pearl Pirates, and he hates the nobles extremely.
From the perspective of the original novel, once a noble gets on the ship, he will take action regardless of right or wrong... But they should also be doing legitimate business, otherwise they would not be able to anchor near Hanhai City.
"He is actually a pirate." Ariel continued, "He is a member of the Purple Pearl Pirates. He specializes in killing nobles and wealthy businessmen. They keep a portion of the property they obtain and hand over the rest to the Purple Pearl Pirates. The Purple Pearl Pirates will then distribute it to the poor villagers near their territory."
"Rob the rich and help the poor? Not bad!" Tang San nodded secretly. After all, the disciples of the Tang Clan in his previous life would also act in this way.
"I think what they're doing is going to lead to bigger problems."
Zhou Qing has a different view.
First, Haider's fundamental purpose in doing this is for personal gain, which is essentially robbing others of their wealth to help his own poverty.
After all, the poor villagers who benefited were from the place where the Purple Pearl Pirates were entrenched, that is, the large and small islands near the Sea God Island, not the villagers of Hanhai City and its surrounding fishing villages.
The nobles' money was exploited from them!
If you really want to rob the rich to help the poor, shouldn’t you give it back to them?
No matter how powerful the wealthy and powerful people in Hanhai City are, they cannot exploit the villagers living on the archipelago near Poseidon Island.
Secondly, doing such things will not make the powerful reflect, but will instead arouse their vigilance, and even accumulate contradictions between them step by step until a real conflict breaks out one day.
At that time, the people who suffered the most were the civilians.
The powerful and wealthy don't really care about the lives of ordinary people, and those who can become pirates are also soul masters. Even if they are defeated, they can change their appearance, hide for a while, and then continue to target the nobles.
In short, their lack of ideological program and struggle goals, and their only purpose of plundering, which only robbed the rich and helped the poor, would only make the lives of the people near Hanhai City more and more miserable. However, for Zhou Qing, at least these pirates had the heart to resist the powerful, and they were potential targets worth winning over.
"My thoughts are similar to yours. I think Haider and his men are a bit too reckless." Ariel also said, "Maybe their intentions are good, but the appearance of pirates has made the lives of residents near Hanhai City even more difficult."
After hearing this, Tang San was slightly thoughtful, recalling his past life, and discovered that the lives of the villagers in those villages that had been helped by the righteous men were indeed no better than before.
One generation after another of wealthy and powerful local gentry came.
People’s lives are becoming increasingly poor!
Until it reaches a certain point where the people can no longer survive and begin to revolt, and then the government suppresses them, quells the public anger, and enters the next cycle.
Compared with the pirates and dignitaries near Hanhai City, they seem to be not much different.
[To truly break the cycle of reincarnation, you have to break everything in the world! Establish a completely new order that is different from the past! ]
Noticing the determination in Zhou Qing's eyes, Tang San thought about the changes in Holy Soul Village and other surrounding villages, and further understood Zhou Qing's true thoughts.
It's really like being an enemy of the whole world!
but--
This life will surely be eventful!
How lucky am I to be able to participate? !
at this time.
A mermaid swam over and saw Zhou Qing and the others awake. She glanced at the Mermaid crew members who were still unconscious, swam to the top of the cave, pulled out two railings made of deep-sea silver, and said, "Come out, those who are awake! Follow me to see the Sea Princess!"
"Go out."
Ariel swam out first.
Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Romantina followed closely behind.
This mermaid's cultivation level is about 50,000 years, which is equivalent to that of a Soul Sage or Soul Douluo, but if it leaves the water, its strength will drop significantly.
"Have all mermaids awakened their martial spirits?" Zhou Qing thought of the Sea Girl Douluo from Poseidon Island and asked Ariel in a low voice.
"Under normal circumstances, only the mermaid who serves as the Holy Pillar of Sea God Island will awaken her martial spirit."
Ariel said, "After all, mermaids are not transformed into humans, so they can't condense spirit rings on their own. They have to hunt spirit beasts to obtain them."
"But they are half-sea soul beasts. If they go to hunt soul beasts, they will be attacked by other sea soul beasts in the first place."
"But if you don't hunt soul beasts after awakening your martial soul, you will be restricted by the rules of Douluo Continent. Without a soul ring, no matter how talented you are, you won't be able to break through."
"Therefore, although mermaids are half human and half sea soul beasts, they have two choices for the path of cultivation: the path of a soul master or the path of a soul beast. Most of them choose the latter."
The mermaid leading the way also heard Ariel's words and asked in surprise, "You know a lot about the mermaids. And you also know that the people on Poseidon Island...cannot pass the Poseidon's test, so they have to live along the coast of the mainland?"
Ariel didn't answer.
Seeing this, the mermaid didn't ask any more questions.
