Chapter 189: Happiness and Crisis
Jasmine carefully put a ball of liquid insoluble in the crystal test tube, then pulled out the excess seawater and closed the lid again, and then gently spit out a mouthful of seawater.
But before she could relax, Jasmine sat up straight again, took out a thick diary, and began to record:
β...... September 4th, ripening potion 3.0, today a comparative test, about five or six days later, you can see the effect, I hope to succeed, I have spent more than half a year on it, in addition to today I also printed a relic that looks good, but the appearance is okay, the internal enchantment pattern has been completely destroyed, there is no useful thing at all......"
Eighteen-year-old Jasmine is already a little long, the curves are not too amazing but the figure is slender enough, the delicate little face is a little more bookish due to a long time of study, quiet and rational, the lower body is paralyzed in the early years, but magic can completely replace the main function of the tail fin.
Of course, there are inconvenient times, but she serves them one by one, which makes Jasmine strong and unwilling to admit defeat.
After recording what she had done today, Jasmine stretched her waist and looked down from the window on the wall, the laboratory on the fifth floor of the magic tower was enough to overlook most of the seaweed area, the busy figures of the residents, the crazy construction of houses and workshops, and several bustling commercial streets, and some nondescript looking sea fields in the distance, such as planting some marine plants on thick ropes, or using some woven cages to hold some shellfish to slowly raise, these are all proposed by the chief, which seem to be whimsical but inexplicably very effectiveγ
Jasmine's eyes were a little confused, and she said to herself: "The tribe has changed so much......"
She was one of the first mermaids to join the seaweed tribe, and it can be said that watching it change little by little, Jasmine couldn't imagine that five years ago this place was like a ruin, the number of mermaids was only a few hundred, the best building was not a two-story stone house, and every mermaid lived a precarious life.
What made her even more unbelievable was the change in herself, five years ago, she never thought that five years later she would be able to sit on a comfortable soft chair with dozens of gold scales for the experiment.
Jasmine fell into the memory
"If I hadn't met the chief, what would my brother and I have lived, joining a tribe at random, becoming an inferior person, and then living a life that is not even guaranteed to survive, or will we continue to wander...... No, no, no, it's going to be worse, I'm going to freeze to death because of the demons, and my brother is going to be killed by a merfolk in the middle of the kelp to avenge me, and neither of us brothers and sisters died well. β
"The chief saved my brother and me. β
......
"Bang bang" Jasmine's ramblings were interrupted by a knock on the door, and a bell-like voice poured in.
"Jasmine Jasmine, I'm coming for you. β
The voice of Little Scale, no, it can't be called Little Scale, the original little fart is now a slim girl, and she is the daughter of Maypott, and the sister of Connors, like a princess in the middle of the seaweed, there is no place it can't go, not even the Magician's Tower.
Jasmine got up and pulled the latch open, and a blue-haired girl rushed in, dragging a large package in her hand.
"What are you doing with me, what are you doing with me. β
It's close to evening, and it's usually time to prepare dinner in the middle of the seaweed, and then go to see a conversation with neighbors and friends, and wait for the liquid to be deep before going to bed, as for the police department and the fishing team, they may have to start night shifts, and of course there are some mermaids who will work at night, but that's far from what Ranna will do.
"Also, what do you mean by this little package. β
Jasmine glanced at the package that she was dragging on, not knowing what the little ghost wanted to do.
"Jasmine, I've heard that Brother Connors is now developing ruins in the no-man's land, let's go see what he does. Jasmine's eyes were about to glow.
"I'm afraid it's not going to see Brother Connors, you want to go out and play is the real idea!" Jasmine said with a smile as she saw what the guy really thought.
"Hee-hee," she said, touching her hair, a little embarrassed.
"Go see Brother Connors and have some fun by the way. "By the way, these two words are very heavy,
Jasmine said lightly; I think Uncle Mepott will take you there if he agrees, why are you coming to me at this point, I guess Aunt Lawman doesn't agree with you going, so you plan to sneak out, but it's too dangerous outside, so I came to me and wanted me to take you out, right?"
The guessed Scales smiled a little embarrassedly: "Sure enough, it's Jasmine, I think you know everything, what's the matter, do you want to go, it's a large ruin, I don't know how many relics from the magic age, and ah......"
"I refuse" Jasmine decisively refused before she could finish speaking, making Lena, who was waving her arms, pause.
"Why, that's a ruin, Jasmine, you don't want to see it, if you're afraid that your brother will blame you, it's okay, and when the time comes, I'll be coquettish, and he won't say anything." β
"No, it's not good!" Jasmine still shook her head, as if she didn't have any interest in the ruins, but in fact, she had already entered the ruins through the teleportation array of the half-drawer space, and even participated in the development, how could she be encouraged by the scale.
As for the teleportation array, the chief asked for secrecy, not because he was worried that Lena would betray, but if this guy accidentally leaked the news, it would be a disaster.
"Sister Shirley......" Scaly began to grind hard, but Jasmine's heart was so hard that she was not moved at all, and after half an hour, Scaly, who knew that she couldn't do anything, sat on Jasmine's chair with one fin like a deflated fin and twisted twice to vent her dissatisfaction.
"Jasmine, if you don't take me there, I won't go to Andy, hum!" This time, Scales is determined to store things to play, to be honest, she has never really left the middle of the seaweed since she was a child, the sea world does not need to be earth, the wild is the three regardless of the zone, homeless, robbers, monsters, and monsters have everything Mayport, how can you rest assured that Scales will go out alone, but if you send a magician or fishing team to follow for the little girl to play, it will be too laborious.
Magic shook his head and said, "Andy is not in the tribe now. β
Andy is now sorting out his relics in the half-drawer, and the other magicians of the tribe are there.
Scaly Na rolled her eyes a few times and said, "That...... Then I'll go find Sister Bul, she must have a way!"
Jasmine looked at Lan Na, who was thinking of a way to go out to play, and was a little helpless: "If Aunt Lawman doesn't agree with you going out, do you think Sister Boer will agree, Lan Na, you should stay in the tribe in peace, and when the chief comes back, you go to him to grind it, the chief has soft ears, maybe he will agree." β
"Hmph!" "Scales were angry, her white face slowly puffed up, but she really didn't dare to let her go out as a mermaid.
"Alright, don't be angry, I've got your favorite cooked food here, just scalded from the redtail crab. Jasmine pulled out a small plate from the drawer, and inside it was a scalded red prawn, which had been divided into pieces by the skilled chef.
Cooked food is a major feature of the seaweed central part of the seaweed, and a complete industrial chain has been developed for this purpose.
The most essential part of the prawns was picked up and sent into her mouth, and Jasmine also twisted a piece of it into her mouth, and the smooth and tender and meaty aroma suddenly filled her mouth, making her eyes squint, and something called happiness slowly rose from the bottom of her heart.
She said from the bottom of her heart: "I really hope that such a day will never be lost." "This is Jasmine's happiness, if something comes to destroy it, she dares to risk her life to protect it!
After eating the prawns, Jasmine sent her away and looked at the empty laboratory.
"I'll go back too. Although the Magic Tower has her bedroom, there are not many mermaids in the tower now, and Jasmine prefers to go back to her own room to sleep.
She followed her along the way, and after making sure that she was back to her home and not sneaking out, Jasmine swam to her quarters, opened the bone lock with the key, entered her own two-bedroom apartment, lay down on the bed, felt the softness of the sea wool beneath her, and curled up into a deep sleep.
......
In the ruins of the No Man's Land, Connors and Shirley slowly make their way through a passage filled with mud and gravel, presumably the solitary residence of a great magician, and such a single room is common in the ruins.
Finally, after passing through dozens of meters of silt passage, Connors touched a trimmed stone wall, and his heart was happy, finally it was over, this single room was very poorly preserved, even if it had passed the passage, it was still full of all kinds of silt, difficult to see, and the difficulty of development increased sharply.
Connors said: "Shirley, let's look for it separately, speed up, there are still three days left, see if we can find more relics." β
For more than 20 days, with the help of the teleportation array, Connors unknowingly transported tens of thousands of relics, most of which were found in the living quarters of ordinary mermaids, and the harvest of other passages was not much, because most of the thorn flowers were too ruthless, except for the ones they collected, many large relics could not be taken away and were directly destroyed, and the three major tribes were helpless at this point, without sea lions, they couldn't beat the thorn flowers at all.
At present, this single room was finally found by him and Shirley.
Connors groped his way along the stone wall for something in the mud, but fortunately there was a shield to cut off the mud, and it wasn't so disgusting.
Time passed little by little, and after more than an hour, Connors finally had a harvest, a half-meter-long sea iron wooden box, the surface had long been corroded by silt, but it could be seen that the inside was still good, and I didn't know what had been preserved.
Just as he was about to open the box, his head seemed to be pricked, and a deadly crisis came out of the mud behind him.
Connors burst out, "Who's there!" As he spoke, the sea iron and wood box was already blocked by him.
"Bang!" I don't know what hit the box, the first layer of Sea Iron Wood was punched out of a hole, staying on the second layer, Connors broke out in a cold sweat, this strength is not enough to rely on his own shield to block the silt, if there is no sea iron wood box, there is already a hole in his body.
A thick mage's aura poured from the attack, and Connors said in a cold voice, "Who is Your Excellency?"
He opened his horizons, but just one glance paused Connors's heartbeat, and the violent and treacherous black magic he had only encountered in a mermaid - Licourt Kelp!
The madman had found him!Connors didn't even think about it, and a short spear stabbed Lycott in the mud, and he himself quickly approached Shirley......
