Episode 897:
The city of strange fish people.
From what I observed, the majority of people living there spoke the imperial language.
Even within the Goeeoin, the classes seem to be thoroughly divided.
The almost pure-blooded Goi people speak their own language.
However, those who were humans and received ‘blessings’ or who were seen as their children spoke the Central Plain language.
The world seen through the hat looked roughly like this.
‘Surprisingly, I’m living a more normal life than I thought.’
I looked at it closely.
They were engaged in economic activities similar to those of imperial citizens.
There is a currency that only the Goi people use, and they work to earn that currency.
For example, it goes like this.
“honey. Come back safely.”
“Don’t worry. “This time, I will catch a big fish and receive a large reward.”
The majority were engaged in fishing activities.
Carrying a net on your back, you walk into the waterway.
And then just dive.
It’s like heading to the sea.
Some people came back after catching a lot of fish from the sea.
‘It doesn’t look like they eat human meat every day.’
In some ways, it might be similar to Yuho?
Yuho is also said to have eaten humans in the past, but now that he is a graduate student, he doesn’t even mention it.
Instead, they eat meat or liver from animals.
It looks like they can also supplement protein with fish.
‘I don’t know what it’s like in the upper layer…’
In addition, some people appeared from the waterway with gold pieces instead of fish.
There seems to be something similar to a gold mine on the sea floor.
Another strange thing is that the sense of beauty is clearly different from that of humans.
In general, for humans, a small head, straight nose, well-proportioned jaw line, and large eyes are the standards of beauty.
However, looking at what they did, it seemed like they clearly had different aesthetic standards.
The statue also deviates slightly from human standards of beauty.
furthermore.
Among the strange fish, there was one who was popular for his appearance, and it resembled an amphibian that Jin Cheon-hee had seen on the Internet on Earth.
‘Upalupa… is popular.’
If you look at the curves of the body, you are a woman.
But the face is right-upa-lupa. And the skin is white.
I can see other monster fish people giggling at such a right-wing monster monster.
This neighborhood or the neighborhood above it all seems to be the same.
‘Isn’t Upalupa cute? Oh, the correct name is axolotl?’
Would it be easier to understand if I said it was metamyeon contemplation?
In the Pokemon world, Metamon can change into anything, but its unique eyes, nose, and mouth do not change.
In emoticon terms, it is (· _ ·) physiognomy.
When tilted to the side :l coronal.
That face seemed to be popular.
I was watching like that.
Wooooow.
Doesn’t it sound like a boat horn?
People stopped what they were doing and started kneeling down all at once.
And then they all start shouting in an unintelligible language.
A language that feels like a spell or a scream.
It appears to be the native language of the Goeo people.
And in the distance, from a cave leading to the sea, something slowly breaks through the water and jumps out.
[Wow… was there anything like that?]
[Not a dragon… Imoogi? [I guess that’s about it.]
It was something that should be called a large snake or Imoogi.
The head alone looked like it could easily swallow two or three people, and on top of it was Tahapa, who had attacked not long ago.
There’s probably a reason why that monster wasn’t used during the raid.
‘It wouldn’t have been easy if a guy like that had gotten involved during that attack.’
The force felt was not at the level of the Hexagonal Spiritual Viper, but it still seemed comparable to it.
It means that it is a high-level spirit among spirit creatures.
Strange though.
It’s really strange.
‘Doesn’t it feel scarier than Yuho, who ruined the test specimen?’
Why?
Everyone’s body froze in fear just by feeling the force of that Imoogi, but Jin Cheon-hee was the only one who suffered no damage.
At that time, Yuho was ten times, no, a hundred times more scary when he said that the sample was ruined and we had to try again.
‘Hmm… I guess there is some kind of difference in rank.’
The professor who had that guy as his graduate student thought to himself.
At that time, the face of a huge Imoogi touched the road of the waterway.
Tahapa gets off at the spot and the others emerge one by one from the waterway and onto the road.
[It looks like they went somewhere after attacking us?]
[I guess so.]
After being attacked, Jin Cheon-hee and his group moved to the annex, collected information, and then moved.
It took about a few hours of time.
In the meantime, it would be time to come to this underwater city.
So it was clear that I had stopped by somewhere.
That means.
‘I guess that means their base exists beyond here.’
Jin Cheon-hee watched Tahapa having a strange conversation with other Goe-eo people.
And one of the monsters brought a woman, who was still an ordinary human, and saw her crying and yelling in front of Tahapa.
The woman is clearly sick and cannot be considered healthy even with empty words.
Tahafa cuts his own hand and feeds the blood to the woman. Then, a person whose clothes were slightly different from the other monsters came to Tahapa’s side.
He took out a luxurious black metal box from his pocket, and when he opened it, he saw a dark red pill lying there.
Tahafa held up the pill and shouted loudly.
-blessing! blessing! Be blessed and free from the lower species of humans! we! It doesn’t get old. we! Don’t get sick. we! Get well soon! ruler. Blessings!
Then Tahapa put the pills into the woman’s mouth and the change began.
The woman’s body began to tremble like an epileptic patient, and the appearance of her face gradually began to change.
The skin became smoother, and although it looked a bit like a lizard, it turned into a cute fish-man.
(· _ ·)
Upalupa Ah no. It is an axolotl ornament.
-Wow, beauty! Beauty! Congratulations to you!
Tahafa celebrated loudly.
Then the monster fishman who brought the woman wept and hugged the woman who had become a monster fishman.
[Do you think that kind of appearance is considered a beauty among monster fish? After looking at it a little carefully, I understand the standards of beauty here~ You like cute things.]
[It’s a metaphor. I think the kids here like the Metamyeong award, whether it’s a boy or a girl.]
At that time, Cheonwoo thought quietly.
[Ha… That’s terrible. Changing people… like that.]
While Jin Tianxi and Sima Xuan were calm, Tianyu seemed to have found it quite difficult to endure.
Where would you have seen something like this?
Even if he acted as a black ship, it was ultimately a human job.
This would be an example of non-humanity.
‘Maybe we’re weird.’
I didn’t realize it until now, but I may be overly imbued with non-humanity.
Tahafa gave his blessing to one person and walked away with his men.
There is a large and magnificent mansion there.
Since the entire underground city is huge, it is no wonder that there is a manor like that.
However, its shape was clearly different from other buildings.
This is the first time Jin Cheon-hee has seen it.
It gives the viewer a strange and bizarre feeling.
As you watch it, you feel like your eyes are drawn in and you want to keep watching it.
‘I think this is a building that acts on the mind like a seobhonjutsu…’
Seophonjutsu.
It is Kang Ho-sik’s brainwashing technique.
It is unclear whether it should be classified as martial arts or witchcraft.
I know that it definitely exists in Gangho and is used somewhere.
In particular, it is used in places such as demonic cults and blood missionaries.
However, Jin Cheon-hee has never personally experienced a soul-searching technique.
It seems that the method of retrieving past memories from the North Sea Ice Palace was similar to the magic of seophonjuk.
In fact, it was largely due to the fact that villains who had caused major incidents or accidents through seduction techniques had not recently appeared in the Gangho.
People don’t care about risks they don’t face.
[brother. That… is an apostle.]
[Does Cheon-woo know anything?]
[I saw something like that a few times while moving on a mission with the Black Ship. He was a person who created fanatical followers in the name of a shaman.]
[What? [There are people like that in the Shaman faction too?]
It’s absurd.
Of course, I know that there are people who become Taoist monks, but when they come out to the secular world, they commit apostasy, become tainted by the dark path, and act no different from bandits.
I taught him how to use the sword to achieve cooperation, but as soon as he was sent down the mountain, he became a human butcher and squeezed out the suffering and blood of the people.
No matter how much you teach the sword based on humanity, you know the inside of ten ways, but you don’t know the inside of a person from one way, right?
Because that is one of the biggest concerns that political factions have.
‘But there is a crazy person who is also establishing a pseudo-cult.’
[In fact, they were the ones who only used the name of the faction they saw. That kind of thing also has to be handled by the Black Ship.]
Even if they didn’t learn it from a real shaman faction, there are probably some people impersonating that name.
[Ah… I think I understand.]
A person who tarnishes the name of the Shaman faction.
Of course, the shaman’s sword must condemn.
If it wasn’t just an impersonation and he used that name to create fanatic followers and commit evil acts, he should be put to death.
[brother. In the end, I guess I’ll have to go into that manor and investigate, right?]
[Just looking at it, that’s where the illusion of blessing from before is being made, so that’s it.]
That’s the source of evil.
* * *
Although it was an underground city, there seemed to be a concept of day and night even here.
When the bell rings to signal night time, the store begins to close and the Goe-o people return to their seats.
Passersby have stopped walking and the number of people wandering the streets is not that large anymore.
Therefore, it wasn’t that difficult for three people to move around secretly.
The three head straight to the manor.
And after using his senses to sense the presence inside, he jumps over the wall and infiltrates inside.
[brother. These guys… they didn’t even send a guard to protect the manor?]
[They probably didn’t think that someone would invade this underground city. Or they believe that even if there is an invasion, they can handle it on their own.]
Even if they are civilians and monsters, their individual strength is comparable to that of strong people.
If you just grab a person and put their head in the water for three minutes, wouldn’t everything be resolved?
Because humans are a species that cannot breathe in water.
There is no need to get blood on your hands.
At that time, Cheonwoo said.
[brother. There is smoke coming from the main house.]
As I crossed the manor wall, a fairly bright scenery unfolded.
Night lights and lanterns were used to illuminate the surrounding area.
Underground manor.
Or, considering its location, should it be called an undersea manor?
In the beautiful garden, rare garden trees that I had never seen before bloomed in different colors.
I don’t know what they did, but the landscaping was made to look like a real seascape with living corals.
I also saw a pearl as big as a person.
‘How big is the clam to be able to hold something like this?’
After passing through the beautiful landscaping, I saw a large chimney just as Cheonwoo had said.
Smoke was flowing out of the chimney as if something was burning.
That was a bit of a rare thing.
From what I observed, the Goeeo people did not light fire even when cooking food.
The staple food seemed to be raw fish.
Burning smoke in a place like that? Of course it’s suspicious.
The three immediately clung upside down to the main house beam and hid inside.
