How to become a mermaid

Chapter 262 Farewell, Cage!

Red Dragon Island, at the coast.

Aboard the Popo Popo.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!" There were bursts of strange noises in the medical room.

Since the morning, it has been noisy here, as if something big is going on inside.

Looking into the room through the gap in the wooden door, one can see a huge suitcase more than two meters high in the middle of the infirmary.

The figure of Planck shuttled around the room, packing things enthusiastically.

He is about to leave soon, bid farewell to the cage that has imprisoned him for ten years, and return to the sea to be a free seal.

Putting the last piece of clothing in the suitcase and stuffing it, Plank closed the box firmly.

"Squeak~" At this moment, the door of the infirmary was pushed open with a soft sound.

Money's voice sounded behind Planck: "Stupid seal, have you packed your things? When are you going to leave?"

Hearing Moni's words, Plank turned his head slowly and gave him a disgusted look.

"Immediately...just...leave! I...hate...don't...have to...leave...now...for a...moment...don't...stay...in...here...stay here!"

"Heh~" Money chuckled, and said to Plank mockingly: "Then don't get lost, or be caught by someone else, and you will be trapped for another ten or eight years!"

This sentence aroused Planck's displeasure, and he suddenly picked up his suitcase and swayed towards the medical room.

When passing by Moni, Planck bumped him with the shoulder, and said a provocative sentence: "It's okay... you... yourself! No... there's... I, your... demon... The medicine...produces...so...just...do...don't...down...go...!"

Being provoked by Planck, Mooney not only didn't get angry, but laughed out loud.

"Pfft ha ha ha ha!" Money laughed out loud.

"Don't put gold on your face, I can still do business without you! It will even be better than before!"

"However..." At this point, Money changed the subject, "I can't say whether I will sell potions in the future. To be honest, I am already tired of this day-to-day life, and I will make a change soon. .”

"I'm off to discover new islands and start new adventures!"

Hearing Moni's words, Plank paused and looked back at him strangely.

Exploring a new island?How could this guy who regards money as his life do such a thankless thing?Is the sun coming out in the west?

Discovering new islands is not an easy task.

Hundreds of years ago, there were not so many humans on the sea, and most of them were concentrated on Feidnan Continent.

Until one day, the leaders of fifty countries in the Feidnan Continent gathered together and reached an agreement.

They declared to the outside world that as long as anyone can discover a new island and get the recognition of the kings of any ten of these fifty countries, they will give the discoverer the status of the island owner.

Island owners have the right to self-government islands, and this right is sacred and inviolable, protected by the laws of Feidnan mainland.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation.

There was a frenzy of island-seeking on the mainland of Fei Dunan. Countless people rushed to the sea, dreaming of discovering an island of their own, so that they could reach the pinnacle of life.

Since then, countless islands have been discovered, and human footprints are almost all over the sea.

However, the island-seeking craze happened hundreds of years ago. Now it is different from the past. It is not easy to find a new island and become the owner of the island.

Those islands that are easy to find have long been found by others, and the remaining islands are either too remote and harsh to approach, or they are not of high value, have little development value, and are not recognized by the "official".

To successfully discover a valuable new island, the human and material capital invested is simply inestimable.

Although Moni was doing well in the merchant ship, Plank felt that he was still a little too young to become the owner of the island.

It’s not enough to run a business well, so why suffer that crime?

After looking at Moni with a strange expression, and confirming that his expression was very calm, and he didn't seem to be joking, Plank shook his head and decided not to care about it.

Forget it, it has nothing to do with him if Money wants to go crazy, anyway, he is leaving soon!
"You... love... why... why... why, don't... die... in front of... Bo... Qi... Mr.... give... him... bad luck... just... OK!" Plank didn't Said to Moni angrily.

"Hehe!" Hearing Planck's words, Money snorted twice, not to be outdone.

It was not Moni's decision to take the risk alone, but his decision with Pochi.

He has been wandering on the sea for too long, although the money is getting more and more, and the boat is getting bigger and bigger, but he still doesn't feel at ease in his heart.

Moni had thought about settling down, but felt that it would be boring to return to the mainland to be a local rich man. After all, he was born as an aristocrat and had already enjoyed a good life.

Returning to the mainland to enjoy happiness is not his goal, he has greater pursuits.

An island discovered by him, completely owned by him, and built up little by little with his efforts, might be a good choice.

Moni felt that he was not strong enough before, so he never acted, but after seeing Pochi's ability, his "courage" suddenly became stronger.

Maybe this is a great opportunity to achieve your goals!
Mooney told Pochi his thoughts, and got his consent without any surprise.

【adventure!I like adventure the most!Moni let's go! 】

Thinking of Pochi's shining eyes when he said this, Moni smiled.

He confidently said to Plank: "I will find my own island, under the witness of Pochi!"

"I hope you can live longer, so that you can see the day when I become famous!"

"Of course, if you can't get along in the sea, you can come and join me! I will take you in regardless of the past!"

"Bah!" After spitting at Mooney, Plank left without looking back.

The two of them just said nothing speculatively, and he wanted to go to Shamanleir, and he didn't want to push Monido any more.

Dragging his suitcase, Plank staggered out of the cabin.

When he came to the deck, he found that there was a huge crowd gathered here, and almost all the crew members appeared here at this time.

Seeing Planck coming out of the cabin, everyone's eyes turned to him.

Regretful, lost, grateful, reluctant, indifferent, curious...

Under the gaze of these pairs of eyes, Plank strode forward dragging the suitcase.

It doesn't matter what these people think about him, he is going to disembark now to welcome his new life!

Seeing Planck approaching, the crowd parted ways.

Regardless of their inner attitudes, they stood on both sides tacitly at this moment to bid Planck farewell.

"Bon voyage, Planck!" Someone suddenly shouted.

More and more voices sounded, converging into a torrent of blessings.

"Thank you for all these years of help! We will never forget you!"

"I'm going to miss you, Plank!"

"Goodbye Planck, you are the best ship doctor I have ever seen!"

"Planck, thank you for helping me pick up the chicken!"

"Planck..."

Hearing these voices calling to him, Planck's heart thumped and beat faster.

His steps forward became slow, and his mood became complicated.

What a cunning human being!
You obviously pushed him away before, but you were so enthusiastic when he was about to leave, did you think he would be happy?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Although he thought so in his heart, Planck's body was very honest.

The corners of his mouth raised up uncontrollably, his dark and bright eyes bent down, and a simple and honest smile couldn't help showing on his spotted seal face.

"Planck!" At this moment, a passionate shout sounded.

Pochi suddenly rushed out from the crowd, opened his arms and gave Plank a warm hug.

Being bumped by Pochi like this, the thick layer of fat on Planck's stomach trembled a few times like jelly, and it took a while for him to regain his composure.

Patting Plank's soft back vigorously, Pochi said to Plank with some reluctance: "Goodbye, my friend! I will miss you when you are not around!"

"After reuniting with Samantel, remember to write to me to report your safety!"

Although Pochi and Plank have only been together for a few months, they have an unexpectedly good relationship.

Apart from Moni on this ship, Poch is most familiar with Planck.

Knowing that Planck was going to leave, Boqi still felt a little bit sad, but he was more happy for Planck and hoped that he would be happy after getting off the ship.

"En!" Hearing what Pochi said, Plank nodded with a smile. He also patted Pochi on the back and said solemnly, "Take care too!"

One fish and one leopard looked at each other and smiled, and let go of each other.

"Da da da…"

There was a sound of footsteps behind Plank.

Money came out of the cabin.

He held a round bag in his hand, threw it in the direction of Planck, and said:
"Here you are! Here are the compass and map. I've marked the dangerous areas and the best routes along the way for you. You just follow the instructions on it and don't go the wrong way!"

Originally, Mooney went to see Planck to give him a map, but they started to choke as soon as they met, and Mooney almost forgot about it.

After receiving the bag thrown by Moni, Plank opened it and found that there were not only a compass and a map in it, but also dozens of gold coins.

Seeing these gold coins, Planck paused.

After glancing in Moni's direction, he re-tied the bag and put it in his suitcase without saying a word.

"Deng Teng Teng..." Planck's heavy footsteps sounded on the deck.

Under everyone's gaze, he walked forward without looking back.

When he reached the bow, Plank picked up his suitcase, kicked hard, and jumped into the sea.

"Plop!" There was a heavy sound of entering the water.

"Shua la..." The sea water splashed waves tens of meters high, and splashed onto the deck of the Boboboboqi.

"Goodbye! Planck!" Facing the splashes, Pochi jumped to the bow and waved goodbye to his friends.

Under the rippling sea, Planck's chubby body stretched freely in the blue water.

Hearing Pochi's voice, Plank also raised his thick right hand and waved goodbye to him.

Completely different from being bulky on the boat, Planck's body was unbelievably flexible when he returned to the sea.

His speed is very fast, and he swims away quickly with a flexible posture that does not conform to his bloated body, gradually disappearing from everyone's sight.

Compared with human ships, the sea is his destination.

Planck, who belongs to the sea, has left, but the humans who belong to the land are still on board.

"Mr. Plank has disembarked..." Hawke looked at the sea erratically, and muttered in his mouth.

The expression on his face was very complicated, some envy, some regret, and some inexplicable fear.

The more you drift at sea, the more you get used to it.

Hawke is an old sailor. He has been on the ship with Mony for decades, and he has long been accustomed to the life on the ship. Now when he thinks of the word "disembark", instead of yearning, he will feel confused and fearful.

If one day he also got off the boat and stopped wandering around, what could he do?
His memory of his hometown has long been blurred, and his parents have died of old age, let alone his brothers and sisters, who don't even remember what they look like.

For a person like him who has no "roots", where else can he go besides wandering in the sea?
The more he thought about it, the more confused Hawke felt.

Not only him, but other sailors on the deck also fell into the same thinking.

No one had disembarked from Mooney's ship for a long time, and Plank's departure was like a trigger, setting off a chain reaction among the sailors.

The atmosphere suddenly became silent, and the entire deck was dead silent.

"What are you all doing with your faces down?" At this moment, Moni's scolding voice sounded.

Like everyone else, he was watching Planck leave just now.

It wasn't until Planck was completely out of sight that he withdrew his gaze.

However, as soon as he turned his head, Mooney saw that his crew members were depressed, like eggplants beaten by frost.

"Is that stupid seal so important to you? Let you all be like your dead parents!" Mony reprimanded all the sailors loudly.

The first person to react was Hawke.

He forced a dry smile on his face, and made a not-so-funny joke to Mooney: "Captain...you should know, my parents are both human beings, not seals."

Money didn't smile, but looked at Hawk with serious eyes.

Hawk scratched his head in embarrassment, and turned to look at the other crew members.

Seeing that other people's reactions were similar to his own, he sighed and said to Moni: "Captain, our depression is not because of Planck, but because we saw someone get off the ship..."

Hawke didn't continue, because he believed that his captain could understand what he meant.

Hearing Hawke's words, Money fixed his eyes, guessing his thoughts just as Hawke thought.

"Da da da..." Moni took two big steps forward.

He faced his crew and asked loudly: "Seeing someone disembark, do you feel lost? Lost?"

Everyone nodded and looked at Moni intently.

"Everyone will disembark!" Money suddenly said loudly.

As soon as this remark came out, all the crew members were startled, and looked at Moni with unexplained eyes.

"I will disembark too!" Under the watchful eyes of the crew, Money said these words.

"But...!" Moni changed the subject, looked sharply at the crew members, and said something unexpected: "But that kind of thing, we have to think about it after we find the new island!"

"From today onwards, we will no longer run merchants! Our ship will change from a merchant ship to an expedition ship, and set off to find new islands!"

"During this process, you will definitely encounter many risks. Instead of thinking about the future in your spare time, you might as well think about tomorrow!"

"If you are not careful, you may die!"

"If you are afraid, you can get off the ship now!"

"But if we succeed in finding the new island, after I become the owner of the island, all the crew members will get a piece of fertile land and have governance rights for generations!"

　I can’t book any more, and it’s still dropping every day. It was 450 before, and now it’s 430.

　　I'm tired... so I decided to start the chapter today.

　　If you see that I only update one chapter, don’t panic, the number of words is the same, but the content of the two chapters is posted in one chapter.

　　It used to be 2000 to 3000 words per chapter, but now 4000 to 5000 words per chapter.
