137: Before leaving

"Leave?" Nicole was stunned, "Are we going out?"

"Yes. Luo Xi nodded: "I don't have much ice algae on my body, I can only refine the sea spirit a few more times at most, if you don't go out in time, you may be in danger." ”

The merfolk had to replenish the Sea Spirit every once in a while, and Roshi began to study what this Sea Spirit was after living here with Nicole.

Naturally, there was no clue at first, but as Nicole got closer to replenishing the sea spirit, Roshi even had the idea of giving up and was ready to leave here.

It's just that when accidentally studying the cells in Nicole's body, Roshi discovers that there is a microorganism called 'sea worm' in her body.

This microorganism Roshi has seen in the books of the Black Tower, it is a relatively old parasite, generally only the sea species in the deep sea will contain a small amount, growing in the body will destroy the cells of the organism, but the sea worm can not resist the exposure of the sun, as long as the sun for a period of time will die naturally.

However, the sea worms in Nicole's body seem to have been specially strengthened by artificiality, and they are extremely tearing inappropriately, and they are not afraid of sunlight at all.

Roshi plucked some to stimulate it, and when the sea worms were activated, a whole scale was devoured in half a day.

It's just that they don't know why, they have been staying quietly in Nicole's body, otherwise they will devour Nicole in the morning.

When he first researched this, Roshi encountered such a dilemma, but then contacted Nicole's mouth of the spirit of the sea, Roshi suddenly had an eyebrow.

Could the spirit of the sea be the thing that inhibits the outbreak of these sea worms?

With this in mind, Roshi confirmed this suspicion after enlisting Nicole to confirm that the scene when the scales were devoured was the same as when they melted in the sea.

That's when the research progressed rapidly.

After picking some cells and reading the properties of the sea nematodes a few times, Roshi quickly confirmed that these sea nematodes were very interested in strong ice elements, but at the same time, they would fall into a deep sleep after devouring the fixed ice element, and it would take about two or three months to reawaken.

Roshi practiced the spell of the ice element, and it was easy to get the ice cubes out, but the difficult part was just how to disperse them into Nicole's blood.

After some upside-down, Roshi finally adopted an algae plant called Ice Algae in his reserve materials, which can absorb and aggregate a large amount of ice elements, and after the processing of the magic array, Roshi successfully created a potion that he named Sea Ice Herbal Medicine, which was used to replace the sea spirit.

"That's rightβ€”" Nicole's mood was a little down

After a pause, she glanced at Luo Xi cautiously, hesitated for a moment, and still asked, "That... Roshi, can I follow you in the future?"

Her expression looked a little nervous, and when she spoke, a pair of beautiful eyes stared at Roshi motionlessly, and her mouth was slightly open, as if holding her breath.

The main reason why Roshi left here was to go in search of the mermaid's tears, and she was not ready to release Nicole in the first place, and her request can be said to be in line with Roshi's wishes.

But listening to her tone, it seems that she is ready to rely on herself and not leave.

Well... Wandering around with a merfolk?

It sounds like it's a good idea, and I can continue to study it myself, although it seems a bit troublesome to get into the water from time to time, but with my current ability, even if I get a pool in the desert, it will be a matter of minutes.

After a brief thought, Roshi nodded: "Well, if you want that, that's fine." ”

"Whew!~" Nicole let out a long sigh of relief, paused, and laughed, the smile that bloomed in the dusk was particularly beautiful and moving, like a woman standing at the door of the house waiting for her husband to return.

"Thank you. ”

It was settled, but Roshi didn't just leave.

The reason for the postponement was the crow, and Roshi was going to take all the short-lived soul crystals that could quickly increase mana power here before leaving.

The soul crystals of the wizards here are not infinite, this is because Luo Xi found that the quality of the soul crystals sent by the crow has gradually decreased in the past six months, and Luo Xi speculates that there are not many soul crystals left, and the crow will send the lower grade crystals over.

The flow of time slowed down again.

After all, it's not like when you are in a meditative state, emptying your mind and focusing on meditation, and months or even years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the floating mana that has just been promoted takes a while to precipitate, so Luo Xi naturally does not meditate, and when he is awake, he can always feel the passage of time more clearly.

Read books every day, study spells, occasionally do some research, life is quite comfortable, the fly in the ointment is that the meat has been eaten a long time ago, Luo Xi's food at this time is some melons, fruits and vegetables, after a long time, the taste buds are weird panic, sometimes when I see Nicole in the water, I will even naturally think of steamed carp, sour soup fish, barbecue tilapia...

After about two months of such days, the grade of the soul crystals sent by the crow is already very small, and some are even cracked broken petals, and these soul crystals can't add much magic power if they are absorbed, Luo Xi thought about it for a while and decided not to delay the time.

After a simple packing, there was nothing to clean up, nothing more than the vegetation in the yard, the bottles and cans in the laboratory, and the only thing that was more troublesome was Margaret's corpse.

Speaking of this corpse, it is still very magical.

Originally, Roshi had frozen her in a piece of ice and was going to replenish it every few months, but when he first prepared to replenish it, he opened the coffin containing the corpse, only to find that a thick layer of cocoons appeared on the surface of the corpse, like a giant caterpillar waiting to metamorphose.

The cocoon was unusually hard and invulnerable, and Roshi tried all sorts of methods, setting it on fire, dousing it with water, even slashing with a knife, and bombarding it with magic.

After some research without a clue, Roshi could only attribute this to his lack of strength and the hardness of the weapon, so he could only put it aside first.

When I practiced boxing in the morning, because I always felt a little worse when I practiced boxing in the air, I suddenly wanted to hang the cocoon on a tree with a rope and use it as a sandbag, but unexpectedly achieved very good results.

This corpse Luo Xi experimented, but there was no way to put it in the space ring, so he could only carry it, and Luo Xi finally built a large box to put it up.
