Chapter 1903 "Swimming With A Fishtail"

The lake water looked clear outside but even if Ainsley was only a few meters away from the water surface, the water here was really turbid and foggy, as if everything couldn't be seen clearly.

Only when the sunlight shone over the specific place that the surrounding would be brighter and more beautiful as if the muddy, cloudy and eerie water before was not the same thing as the beautiful and clear water after being illuminated by the sunlight.

Ainsley already raised her guard to this kind of strange lake water and because of the limited vision, even if the Merrill race had good eyesight in the water...

Ainsley was just a fake, after all, so her vision was not as good as a real merfolk race, albeit better than in her human form.

And so, Ainsley took a few times to spot her few teammates around the boat and the baby decided to approach her teammates while trying to use her newly gained tail.

It was definitely strange for someone with two legs to suddenly only have one big fish tail.

Ainsley didn't know how to swim with the fishtail for a moment, so she just subconsciously flicked her tail to push her body forward.

Then...just one flick of the tail immediately pushed Ainsley a few meters to the front in one go.

It was so smooth, as if Ainsley was sliding on a slide or something, and it definitely stunned the baby who never felt this way when swimming.

Although swimming with two legs was not bad, there were still some kinds of restrictions and a sense of disharmony.

But the fishtail was worthy to be a fishtail. Not only it felt just right underwater, but the speed of swimming also became a few times faster than using two legs!

The water flow around seemed to be supporting the whole body, not going against the body at all.

It was at this moment that Ainsley perfectly understood why the Merfolk race could be the overlord of the sea despite having to fight many intelligent sea beasts and the brutal sea monsters.

It was because their own bodies were made to adapt to the sea environment and it was such a huge advantage!

To be honest, Ainsley even secretly suspected the ancestor of the Merfolk race.

It should be a mix between a humanoid race and a fish race, right?

Maybe there were sacred beasts among the sea beasts who could transform into their humanoid in the past and they married some humans, which became the start of the Merfolk race.

Or maybe the sea beasts had a child with another fish, but the sea beasts were already sacred beasts back then, so due to an unknown genetic mutation, their descendants became half-human, half-fish like now.

Or maybe, just maybe...the Merfolk race was humans in a sense, but they could have an additional tail, which was why the Merfolk race could freely switch between legs and fishtails.

Of course, it was said that only pure-blooded ones and those who have awakened any special abilities could switch freely between legs and fishtails, but these hypotheses were worth pondering.

Ainsley didn't immerse herself in her deep thoughts for a long time and she already approached the group of teammates who were having fun using their fishtails while keeping an eye on her.

Although it looked like the teammates didn't watch her and guard her carefully, the real mermaid among the other fake mermaids and mermen had good eyesight underwater.

She could see everything about Ainsley and her actions, so she wasn't worried about the child being in danger.

Everyone played with their fishtails not too far from the boat for several minutes before they grouped again underwater and started to discuss things.

One could not speak underwater or hear anything, but the sonic guy could control sound waves, and the merfolk race also had their own unique communication method through special sound waves.

In the end, the group could communicate with others normally even when they actually only sent out some kind of sound wave to each other, but what they heard were all normal words of the international language.

"How is it everyone, have you adapted and adjusted to the environment underwater?"

The mermaid kindly asked the other contestants who dived into the lake with her.

Although she was more used to the environment in the sea, the lake was not a difficult environment compared to the sea, so the mermaid was calm.

On the other hand, the other teammates rarely dived into a place full of monsters and beasts, and this lake was also strange, so they all had to adjust for a while.

The others immediately nodded at the mermaid and spoke with a special sound wave.

"It's okay! At first, it's quite scary because of the cold water, the fog and the muddy areas, but it's not so unbearable after adjusting for a few minutes."

Ainsley truthfully responded to the mermaid and the others followed soon, sharing their short experiences when swimming using fishtails for the first time.

The mermaid nodded at the teammates and soon, the group gathered in a circle, planning a strategy to swim to the Acacia plant's habitat.

It was only a few hundred meters from the boat to the tree, but the group didn't use a boat so as not to attract the attention of many beasts and such.

After all, even if diving and swimming should be more dangerous than using the boat, with the transformation effect, it was actually better to swim than to use the boat.

"I don't know how deep the roots of the Acacia plants can go, and I don't know which roots we want to take, but to maximize our safety, let's just go to an area with lesser monsters, beasts or water plants."

Ainsley proposed an idea and the others also proposed some ideas before they agreed on a rough plan.
