The Ancient Mermaid Transmigrated to the Interstellar

Carrie said to let him wait for a while, so Ji Mingjiang simply tinkered with the bracelet he had just put on.

There is a screen in the center of the bracelet. There are no up, down, left, or right buttons, but when he swipes his finger, it will remind him to turn on the screen before proceeding with the operation, which is roughly equivalent to a touch-screen remote control.

There is a groove at the bottom of the screen where Carrie has recorded his fingerprints. As soon as he put his finger on it, the screen on the wall lit up with the white light from the center of the bracelet.

It seems that the entire screen is only open to the learning function. It is divided into three sections: one introducing the history of the empire, one introducing the habits of mermaids, and one introducing general social knowledge.

…Wait a minute, it seems like there are four panels.

Ji Mingjiang finally saw a section of content below the general knowledge area.

After swiping down for a long time, there was no response from the screen in front of him. Ji Mingjiang had no choice but to accept the fact that this small section couldn’t be opened.

But this did arouse his curiosity, and he tapped the screen twice.

[The language learning section is temporarily closed; please contact the technical staff to open it.]

The extreme emotional transition between happiness and sadness takes a few seconds. But to Ji Mingjiang, even one second was unbearable!

What the hell! How can it be closed!

Looking at the small area and grayish green exterior of the language learning section, Ji Mingjiang didn’t know what to say for a moment.

If it was before, he might have conspired about whether the staff here did so on purpose so that the mermaid would become a floating island after leaving them and the translator. But after knowing what the character of the mermaids here is, this speculation was completely left behind by him.

He can probably guess why this learning section was closed: it isn’t needed.

After all, learning a new language isn’t an easy task, and if some precious beings who have spoiled tempers and can’t be beaten or scolded were to do this task, it could be said to be a lifetime away from success.

Forget it; let’s take one step at a time. Ji Mingjiang sighed. This isn’t a big deal. After he explores the situation here, he will be able to learn by himself sooner or later. After all, the language environment also has a great impact on the learning of a language.

So where to start now….

General knowledge isn’t important at the moment because it doesn’t look like he can go out and wander around, so pass.

Mermaid habits? This lesson should be given to other people. As a mermaid, can he not know his own living habits? It doesn’t matter at the moment; pass.

Empire history? Bring it on!

If you want to quickly understand a country, you must start with its history. The cultural heritage, power composition, regime change, and status quo of this country can be speculated about or found in the historical scrolls.

The question that has puzzled him for a long time about why the mermaid gets so much attention may also be answered.

However, the facts are always somewhat different from what he thinks.

After watching the chibi mermaid draw a bling-bling circle in front of the screen with a pointer to summon the blackboard, Ji Mingjiang fell silent again.

There are too many things to complain about, and he doesn’t know where to start.

Is this a mermaid foster center or kindergarten?

The magic wand can directly appear in the form of a magic wand, and there is no need to specially disguise it as a pointer?

…He was speechless.

But he had to continue watching even if he was speechless. Fortunately, although the sound of this course’s explanation is also somewhat difficult to express, there is still no problem with the picture.

At least what is presented on the blackboard is a movie-like picture instead of a group of cute mermaids and humans.

The imperial history course only had three sessions, and Ji Mingjiang picked it up very quickly. Just as he had a preliminary understanding of this interstellar era, he heard sporadic footsteps and the sound of rolling wheels in the corridor.

It should be that Carrie came back, probably to take him for a medical examination. He quickly turned off the screen and pretended he hadn’t done anything.

Although he didn’t watch the introduction of the mermaid’s habits, Ji Mingjiang’s intuition told him that he was the one who didn’t fit in with the mainstream mermaids. For now, it’s better not to behave too abruptly.

On the way to the medical examination center, Ji Mingjiang was still analyzing the information he had just received in his mind.

The first is politics. After wandering on different planets, everyone settled on the same one. Then various similar leaders gathered on another planet to discuss its future development, and that planet gradually evolved into today’s capital star.

At that time, considering factors such as distance and safety, the leaders naturally found several gathering places nearby. After these gathering places developed, different regimes emerged.

In the end, history repeated itself through annexation and expansion, leaving only the Empire and the Federation with completely opposite ideologies.

The Empire and the Federation have been at odds for a long time, which is normal. With only two regimes left in one space, it would be a hell of a thing if they didn’t fight with each other.

Summary: The problem is not big; it has nothing to do with him.

Secondly, in terms of culture, the interstellar people are the descendants of people who took spaceships to other planets after the destruction of the Blue Star.

Because people at that time were scattered on different planets and a large number of people died, they weren’t so concerned about the previous nationality barriers. There were cultural fusions, inheritances, and extinctions, but in general, the differences aren’t too obvious.

At least the gourmet culture and cooking skills have been passed down by his compatriots, thank God.

Summary: Thank you, ancestors, and the brilliant Chinese people!

Ji Mingjiang hasn’t read the other aspects yet. After reading these two points, he clicked directly on the content of social development, and this is what made him feel the most absurd.

The film shows that, affected by the unknown radiation of the universe, after both the Imperials and the Federation settled down and developed steadily, some humans gradually showed animalistic characteristics, some animals showed human characteristics, and finally both sides turned into the form of beastmen.

Moreover, the bestialization of animals does not make them smart enough to speak human words, while the bestialization of humans makes their personalities more savage, making them increasingly irritable, but it also improves their physical fitness a lot.

According to this characteristic, after a unified discussion by experts from all walks of life, they decided to officially divide human beings into ordinary people and beastmen, and then divided the beastmen into primary beastmen and evolved beastmen.

At present, although it’s a bit outrageous, it’s still within Ji Mingjiang’s acceptable range. It’s understandable that cosmic rays can produce mutations.

But after that, it’s a bit outrageous!

Why can the primary beastmen help the evolved beastmen relieve their irritability? This can be regarded as an enhanced effect of petting cats and dogs, but why did it directly become full-on spiritual counseling later? !

There is even a conclusion that the higher the rarity, the better the soothing effect, and the soothing ability of fantasy species like mermaids is the strongest. Did he transmigrate to the future interstellar era or some kind of gacha mobile game?

Afterwards, there was some content about the history of mermaids, but because there were footsteps outside the door, Ji Mingjiang didn’t continue to read it. Still, he could roughly guess the content. Because of their rarity, mermaids were raised in captivity and pampered, and then gradually evolved into a good-for-nothing…

Summary: The system is worthy of being a high-dimensional product, and the data analysis is reliable.

Ji Mingjiang remembered the system’s analysis of the world settings he might go to half a month ago. For the first time, he became curious about the realm where the system is located. This kind of analytical ability is really strong.

Because he was recalling and thinking about the information he had just learned along the way, Ji Mingjiang did not notice the changes in the surrounding environment. The current medical equipment does not need to be tested item by item, and the data will be released as soon as the medical cabin is ready.

When Ji Mingjiang came back to his senses, he had already been put into the mermaid-only physical examination cabin. With several beams of red and green lights outside the cabin intersecting each other, he heard the sound of paper printing.

“Okay, he can be pushed out.” Oddo ordered while looking at the report in his hand.

“The bone age is 16 years old—a little guy who hasn’t grown up yet. There are no scars on the outside; the organs are well developed; there are no infectious genetic diseases; and the mental strength is normal…very healthy.”

Looking at the report in his hand, although he had doubts about the origin of this mermaid, Oddo was still relieved.

After all, every mermaid’s existence is very precious. Before receiving clear instructions from His Majesty, he must take good care of this little guy, whether in public or private. He doesn’t want this child to encounter any mishaps.

What’s more, even if he was sent by the Federation, no matter how much he was trained, such a small mermaid can know nothing. If he is taken care of properly, he will become a fish of the Empire.

While thinking about possible arrangements for the mermaid in the future, Oddo smoothed the document in his hand and put it into the space button.

After a while, these papers will also be handed over to His Majesty.

After Ji Mingjiang was pushed out of the medical examination cabin, he was right behind Oddo. No one would have thought that mermaids could understand human writing, and seeing him peering at the medical examination, no one stopped him.

So Ji Mingjiang successfully saw his physical condition.

…

Everything else is fine, but a bone age of 16? What the hell? Did he become young again? !

Ji Mingjiang felt as if a thunderbolt had struck his head.

He originally thought that after the physical examination, the keepers here would know that he’s already an adult fish in his 20s, and those praises and encouragements that are for children can be put away for mermaids in need, but now… it is completely impossible!

Sure enough, after he saw that age, Oddo had already read the report, and the foster staff around him, headed by Carrie, all exclaimed in amazement.

“A child that’s 16 years old! He’s even younger than our smallest mermaid!”

“But he’s so sensible at such a young age, I don’t even dare to think about what his life was like before.”

“There must have been a lot of hardships, so he doesn’t want to cause trouble for others. It seems that we have to praise him more in the future, so that he knows that no matter what he does, we won’t ever get tired of him!”

Although Ji Mingjiang couldn’t understand, the expressions of pity or resoluteness on the faces of the people around him made him realize something.
