The Ancient Mermaid Transmigrated to the Interstellar

TL: Hua

Seeing that Ji Mingjiang was unwilling to accept their food, the specially selected shark with handsome features was also a little scared.

“What should we do? Does he not want to recognize us as little brothers?” The shark with food in its mouth asked Nika vaguely.

“Could it be because we made the food too dirty?” O’Neal didn’t miss the look of disgust in the mermaid’s eyes when he saw the food in their mouths.

That’s right, such a beautiful and powerful creature should also eat gracefully; how could he bite it directly with his teeth?

“Then give it to the group of dumb humpback whales. Anyway, let him know that we have no malicious intentions!” Nika made a decision after some discussion. After all, it’s not very convenient to talk with something in your mouth.

Under Ji Mingjiang’s signal, the humpback whales obediently waiting behind him quickly noticed that the sharks that were originally surrounding the mermaid soon shifted targets and swam towards them.

But just as Ji Mingjiang flicked up his tail to give the group of sharks some warning, he saw a bizarre scene in front of him.

Occasionally, when they meet a whale that opens its mouth in surprise, they will also send food in tenderly.

“?”

Looking at the sharks who left together after delivering the food and the group of humpback whales who were clueless but happy to have more food, Ji Mingjiang was completely at a loss.

Is there a species among sharks that likes to be a delivery person?

He knows that underwater creatures sometimes have some magical division of labor. For example, fish such as pilot fish have a good relationship with sharks, and they will pick their teeth.

But that is also a symbiotic relationship, from which it can obtain life-sustaining food.

What the hell is this unprecedented operation for a shark to serve as a delivery man for a humpback whale?

And his life seemed to get strange after that day.

Whenever he takes humpback whales to hunt or he himself is active in a certain area of the sea, he always sees all kinds of marine creatures that are obviously coming for him.

A squid that rolls its prey with its tentacles, the shark that carries the smell of blood from a long distance, the turtle that arrives with mother-of-pearl shells on its back….

This situation intensified until one day he found that the shell house he originally lived in was replaced by another shell that was bigger, shinier, and more delicate in shape.

“What exactly happened?” Ji Mingjiang asked, his head throbbing as he looked at Ryan, who was watching and sighing.

“Huh? Didn’t you instruct them to do all of this?” The old whale was obviously a little surprised.

Under Ryan’s explanation, Ji Mingjiang gradually figured out everything.

Simply put, this group of underwater creatures developed PTSD as a result of his ancestors. When they saw him, they wanted to worship him as the boss, or they would worry about being disposed of anytime and anywhere.

“It’s outrageous; I obviously didn’t say anything!” The fish around him couldn’t understand his language, so Ji Mingjiang could only complain to Ryan.

Ryan looked at the energetic mermaid who kept pumping water with his tail and smiled helplessly: “That might be their misunderstanding, but if you won’t stay here for much longer, just take it for now, otherwise they will all panic.”

Ryan still hasn’t forgotten the answer given by this mermaid when he asked if he needed other humpback whales to learn mermaid language.

Ji Mingjiang sighed and finally accepted the suggestion. At worst, he’d simply stop going out for a few days.

By the way, the system gave him half a month; how many days are left now?

He had engraved a countdown on the shell house before, and it was very convenient to draw a line for one day. But now that the house is gone, he can’t remember the number of days.

The next few days were different from what Ji Mingjiang imagined.

He originally thought that he would spend his time idly with a few small whales near his shell house, but he didn’t expect that Ryan would soon bring him a piece of good news.

“After the leaders of the squid and shark heard that you have a good temper and can communicate, they came to ask me if I could ask you to help them train their juniors and, by the way, catch criminals.”

It’s easy to understand the training of juniors. What does it mean to catch criminals?

With a small fish in his mouth, Ji Mingjiang asked with his eyes.

“There’s always one bad seed with a loose screw in every species. For example, in the season when there’s no shortage of food, they always like to steal the cubs of the same species to eat, even when they’re full. Only one or two of the entire group will be killed, and they need to be convicted and then killed by the patriarch.”

Ryan explained with some anger. Although this kind of situation is relatively rare in his clan, he can also sympathize with it. One such creature can really disturb the peace of the entire clan.

“Because those who can achieve this level are often among the best in the entire group, it is usually difficult to deal with them, and if they fail, they will suffer retaliatory attacks.”

Ji Mingjiang understood. He had no idea that these creatures at the bottom of the sea, like human society, had criminals. But after thinking about it, he’s already a mermaid, what else is impossible.

“No problem, I will help!” Ji Mingjiang readily agreed.

He didn’t do anything all morning and felt a little uncomfortable all over. If it lasted any longer, he would be suffocated to death.

Ryan, this is really a relief!

Ji Mingjiang then began his days of jumping up and down all over the sea.

In the morning, he went to the abyss to look for squid and taught them how to escape and fight back when their tentacles were entangled and how to work together to strangle a prey that was many times bigger than them with their tentacles.

After eating the food caught by the squid at noon, he took the turtle train. After paying with a small silver fish as the travel expense, he transferred to the shark express train to search for the crazy sharks that were still escaping in the shallow sea.

It’s unknown whether it was due to the aggressive nature of the shark, but there are far more criminals among them than other species.

Although he can slap those criminal sharks with his tail without fear of them threatening his safety, it’s still a waste of time!

After one afternoon, his tail was sore!

“…the last one!” After knocking the escaped shark unconscious with skillful force, Ji Mingjiang waved at Nika next to him in a relaxed tone.

Since the team led by Nika had a lot of dealings with Ji Mingjiang before, the older sharks handed over the cooperation between the two parties to Nika after discussion.

Although Nika couldn’t understand what the mermaid in front of him was saying, he guessed about half of it from the look on his face.

“He’s really powerful.” While Nika was telling other members to bring the dazed shark back, O’Neal whispered to the friends he had met during this time.

“If I eat more and exercise more, will I be able to stun a prey with one tail like him in the future?”

O’Neal looked forward to dominating the shallow sea area in the future.

“What are you doing in a daze? Let’s go!” When he saw his silly brother’s dazed expression, he slapped his tail angrily on him.

After Ji Mingjiang escorted the criminal fish back with them, he slowly returned to his shell house.

Ji Mingjiang didn’t hitch a ride with the sea turtle this time because he wanted to take a good look at this clean sea area since his time in the adaptation world will end in about two days.

Tomorrow is the already-agreed-upon day to take the baby humpback whales out to play. Having been out there every day for a while, Ryan says there are several baby whales that miss him.

“Remember to call me tomorrow.” Ji Mingjiang, who was worried about oversleeping, gave Ryan a word before closing the shell.

Early the next morning, Ryan came to a familiar place and looked at the empty shell house in silence.

Is this some kind of ancestral characteristic of the mermaid family, something like disappearing without warning…

And, how would he explain it to the group of little humpback whales! What a headache!

…

“Word adaptation is over… Initiating transmission…”

“Stop being so loud!”

“…”

Ji Mingjiang felt like he had slept for a long time, and his head hurt a little from the sleep. He slowly opened his eyes, worrying about whether he had missed the appointment time. Then he felt that the touch under his body wasn’t right.

How confusing.

His gaze slowly moved down.

…Where’s his shell bed? ! Looking at the gravel under his body, Ji Mingjiang was deeply shocked.

Before he could figure out what happened, a roar suddenly came from above his head.

Ji Mingjiang’s ear fin keenly moved. When he looked up, he could see the shadow of a huge ship in the deep sea area where even light couldn’t reach.

Moreover, he seems to have heard human voices? Though it was still a language he didn’t understand.

Did he sleep through the era? It will take many years for this sea to become like this, and humans have also evolved.

“…”

The system finally couldn’t take it anymore.

“The adaptation world is over, and you are currently in the launch world.”

“Survival tips are being broadcast now: There are no other creatures in the current sea area. It is strongly advised that the host relocate to other sea areas as soon as possible. If you want to contact human society, please grasp the current opportunity.”

“Are there any other questions?”

“……” Ji Mingjiang then remembered that his time there was supposed to be almost up.

“Why didn’t you call me! I haven’t said goodbye to my little brothers over there!” The matter on the shark’s side has been settled, but there are still a few baby squids that haven’t been trained, and he also agreed to play with the baby humpback whales the night before.

“Before initiating the transmission, the system sent a reminder, which was rejected by the host.”

The system coldly stated the truth.

Last night, Ji Mingjiang thought about it, and his face gradually stiffened up.

So it turned out that the thing that was blaring non-stop while he was sleeping last night was the system…

Seeing that Ji Mingjiang stopped asking questions, the system’s voice sounded again.

“The host has been transmitted to the interstellar world. Please explore for yourself. To enhance the host’s sense of reality in the new world and for the need to protect the host’s privacy, this system will follow Article 1 and Article 23 of the “System Guidelines” to enter a dormant state and will wake up again when it detects that the host is in danger of life and has a strong will to survive.”

“Congratulations on successfully having a second life; I wish you all the best.”
