The Ancient Mermaid Transmigrated to the Interstellar

TL: Hua

“…”

“Wake up, we’re here.”

Looking at Ji Mingjiang, who let himself drift in the sea and slept soundly with a face of ignorance, the system was rarely at a loss.

World teleportation shouldn’t take that long; how could he sleep like a log…

But he can’t be allowed to sleep like this anymore. Even if a mermaid will not drown in the sea, the binder must be safeguarded against being eaten as prey by some large sea creatures.

Fortunately, just as the system was about to provide some weak current stimulation, Ji Mingjiang finally woke up.

It’s unknown what technology the system uses to teleport between worlds. Ji Mingjiang only remembered that he started out with his eyes closed and relaxed of his own accord, and at some point his brain felt like it had suddenly been hit, and then he was forced to lose consciousness.

Ji Mingjiang is still a little dizzy now, which is specifically reflected in the fact that he hasn’t realized where he is when he opens his eyes.

“…Your teleportation technology is too bad; no one has complained before?”

Ji Mingjiang raised his hand to rub his swollen and painful temples, then he seemed to suddenly realize something incredible and slowly put down his hand with inexplicably long nails.

He closed his eyes, then opened them again. What was in front of him was still a large surface of blue. A clown fish swam right in front of his line of sight, and the waves brought a strand of silver hair in front of him.

Wait, why in the hell does this look so much like the sea?

Ji Mingjiang was flustered and dazed for a moment. Driven by his emotions, he reflexively hooked the strand of silver hair that floated over with his fingers.

Then he felt even more horrified by the pulling force on his scalp.

At the same time, the lower half of his body swung violently as if it were out of the control of his nervous system.

That’s right, it was a pendulum swing.

Ji Mingjiang maintained a flat-lying posture and watched a gleaming silver fish tail violently flutter from where his legs should have been. He even clearly felt the resistance when the fish tail pushed the water away.

“…”

There was a moment of confusion in his mind, and Ji Mingjiang gradually realized that he might be a different species now.

He’s not human anymore, or he’s only half human.

After all, the upper half of his body is still human-looking.

After standing himself upright, Ji Mingjiang looked at his whole body and comforted himself in a self-deceiving way.

“Don’t you think you owe me an explanation?” After calming down, Ji Mingjiang finally remembered who was responsible for his current situation, and the culprit system, after waking him up, never said another word, not even a brief introduction!

After a moment of silence, the system made another sound.

“As the host can see, you are now a deep-sea mermaid, which is the body you will take with you when you officially launch into the world.”

Ji Mingjiang dared to swear that he definitely heard a trace of doubt from the inherently cold voice of the system.

And the system really doesn’t understand why it detects negative emotions like anger, confusion, and bewilderment from Ji Mingjiang. After all, in its view, a creature like a mermaid is a very popular existence in every way.

However, it still listed all of its own data analysis in order to allow Ji Mingjiang to adapt to the new identity as soon as possible and with a responsible attitude to the end.

“The initial wish of the binder was to have a healthy body, but during the mission, the system data showed that the host’s expectations for physical fitness were significantly higher than the standard of health.”

“And because the host’s learning package contains knowledge such as science and technology, medicine, etc., out of consideration for world balance, the only world to choose from is the future world.”

“After testing, 65% of the future worlds contain beast-men components, 30% of the future worlds contain ABO components, 4% of the future worlds are a fusion of the two, and the remaining 0.5% are ordinary interstellar and 0.5% are special interstellar types.”

“In the system’s database, all values of this creature, the mermaid, are outstanding. Its force value is the top in the world, and its physical fitness is very strong, which can ensure the host’s basic survival needs and provide more room for development.”

“The host’s mermaid gene is provided by the system and can be freely converted between mermaid and human at a later stage, which basically fits all interstellar worldview types and provides maximum space for your activities.”

After giving Ji Mingjiang enough time to digest and understand this passage, the system said after two minutes, “Do you have any other questions? If not, I will go back to the system center to report the task and carry out maintenance.”

“…”

After receiving this piece of information in a daze, Ji Mingjiang felt that his brain was going to explode and wanted to raise his hand to rub his head, but when he saw the long and pointed nails, he had to put his hand down resentfully.

“Then you go first; there will be no accidents on my side.” Hearing that the system has something to do, Ji Mingjiang thought about it, and he had nothing that he had to ask the system to solve.

Anyway, according to the system, he has no natural enemies, is invulnerable to all poisons, and can even take a bullet in the face. He can slowly dig out other information about this body by himself and won’t have to bother it with everything.

He stopped at the spot and tried to sense something for a while. He didn’t feel anything when binding and didn’t notice any difference when the system left.

Ji Mingjiang called it a few more times in his mind, and when he didn’t get any answer, he was sure that this technological product left without even saying goodbye…

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly. Ji Mingjiang sighed resignedly and finally turned his gaze to himself and the scene around him.

When he formally sized up his new, different-species body, Ji Mingjiang discovered that the tail he thought was silvery-white was actually dark blue. The surface of the scales will occasionally flash a silver-white broken light, and the specific effect is a bit like the eyeshadow that one of his female subordinates usually wears.

The system probably chose a relatively safe sea area to release him. Ji Mingjiang stayed here for such a long time, and except for the clownfish that swam past at the beginning, he never saw any other living things.

There are quite a lot of coral reefs around him. After a few glances, he stopped looking and focused his attention on this sea area.

Not knowing if he could communicate with other marine creatures, Ji Mingjiang pursed his lips. Although the system said that this world is only for him to adapt to his body, after all, there is still half a month left, so he must try out where the limits of his body strength are in addition to knowing how mermaids live.

He raised his head and took a look at the sea area, where he couldn’t see the end and not even a ray of sunlight penetrated. He estimated that his place was not too shallow, so Ji Mingjiang had no choice but to temporarily give up the idea of swimming to the surface to see the situation.

He chose a direction at random and swam forward slowly, flicking his tail unskillfully.

His silver hair was carried behind him by the current when he was swimming. While Ji Mingjiang was getting used to using his tail to provide power and change direction, he carefully observed his hands.

Perhaps after becoming a mermaid, his eyesight became less human-like. Even though there was no light around him, Ji Mingjiang could still see things around him very clearly.

Maybe it’s the racial talent of deep-sea creatures? Ji Mingjiang pondered the world’s top physical fitness of the mermaid, as stated by the system.

After all, creatures that can adapt to the high-pressure and pitch-black environment of the deep sea are not much weaker. It’s just that mermaids, a fantasy creature, have a little more buff on this basis.

Finally, he didn’t have to worry about the company’s affairs anymore. Ji Mingjiang, who was rarely free, relaxed, and the messy thoughts in his mind rushed out.

But this didn’t delay him too much from exploring various parts of himself.

There are no fish scales on the surface of the hands and arms, and the chest and abdomen are also very smooth. There are even some abdominal muscles and mermaid line muscles that weren’t available in his previous life because of his inability to exercise a lot.

Is this the benefit of changing species? The factory setting is also great.

Ji Mingjiang sighed while swimming.

However, although there are no scales on the hands, the sharp nails are obviously beyond the scope of humans.

Ji Mingjiang tried to pinch it. It was very firm, but he didn’t feel anything. He couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there is no nervous system distributed, and it can be cut off or smoothed out later, but not now.

Even if he wants to cut it, he can’t cut it until he enters the real launch world and returns to human society. He isn’t so careless as to cut the nails that can be used as weapons in the deep sea.

Speaking of using it as a weapon, Ji Mingjiang looked around, swung his tail around, and found a rock that looked just as hard.

He planned to test the hardness of his nails first.

An accident happened just when he was picking up the stone. Ji Mingjiang looked at the debris of the stone left in his palm; his tail stopped wagging, and his eyes revealed a trace of bewilderment.

He obviously just wanted to pick up this stone…

And he can crush rocks… Ji Mingjiang looked down at his nails, and a question mark slowly appeared above his head.

Then aren’t his nails harder than rocks?

Fortunately, there are many rocks available.

Ji Mingjiang’s eyes drifted to the few remaining rocks, and he stretched out his hand cautiously, trying to lift a hard rock with the strength he used to hold eggs in his previous life.

Very good, it’s broken again.

After trying several times and leaving a pile of debris, Ji Mingjiang finally roughly estimated his current grip strength, which is four to fifty times that of a normal person…

In the end, he ended up holding the stone with a force comparable to holding up a splash of water.

To be honest, he was a little panicked.

This force means something really frightening; at the very least, it will frighten him, a law-abiding citizen.

Because this means that when he shakes hands with people later, he can only touch the palms lightly and then circle his fingers slightly instead of holding hands directly.

It means that when he wants to greet people, he can only call them dryly instead of going up to pat them on the shoulder in a friendly manner.

It means that he might squat in prison if he doesn’t pay attention! ! !

This kind of thing can’t happen! !

Thinking of this possibility, Ji Mingjiang took a deep breath, let out a breath of foul air, and looked at his hands.

He knows why the system gave him half a month to adapt. If he just learned how to control the fish’s tail, in fact, he would be able to swim in less than half an hour.

But if it’s necessary for him to familiarize himself with his mutated strength, then this period of time is indeed essential.

Ji Mingjiang would have stayed here for more days if it hadn’t been for the fear of developing psychological problems from being isolated from human society for too long.

On the bottom of the sea, the most convenient way to adapt to this sudden force is to put yourself in danger, besides looking for rocks everywhere.

Oh no, how could he put himself in danger with this ghostly strength? He’s the DANGER to other fish.

But in general, whether it’s to control his current strength or to provide rations for the next 15 days, Ji Mingjiang decided to find a few big fish and try it out.

After making a decision in his mind, he flicked his tail, and the dark blue tail fin set off a stream of water, which washed the broken stones on the ground to a place where he could not see them.

Just as Ji Mingjiang was still hesitating in which direction to swim, his sharpened ears moved and keenly caught a sound wave coming along the water.

Is there a fish being beaten?

The author has something to say:

It stands to reason that the deep sea lacks light, and many deep-sea creatures are thought to be blind. Just think of it as a private setting that the fish in this novel are able to see in pitch-black waters; otherwise, how could a group of blind fish interact with each other TvT
