When Lan Zhi heard Zhao Hai, he stared for a moment before he laughed and said, "Mister doesn't need to worry. You just need to do it. Even if it doesn't succeed, nobody would blame you."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "Underwater plants are a forbidden area for Plant Masters. Almost no one has studied them carefully. If the research is successful, then it would be a good thing. However, it wouldn't be easy to make these plants monitor underwater. Even if it succeeds, it would require a lot of Plant Masters to spend a lot of time communicating with these plants. Therefore, even if it succeeds, it would still require a lot of investment in the future. I hope that Mister can be prepared for this." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "That's right.
Lan Zhi nodded and said, "This isn't a problem. Mister, you just need to do it. If it succeeds, then we can guard against the Fishmen. As long as we can ensure the safety of the continent, we can accept any number of plants."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, then there's no problem. I can leave at any time. I'll have to ask Mister to help me arrange it."
When Lan Zhi heard Zhao Hai's agreement, he immediately said, "Alright, then I'll have to ask Mister to wait for our news. When we're ready, we'll immediately inform Mister."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said his goodbyes to Lan Zhi and returned to his room. Then he quietly thought about this matter. Zhao Hai didn't pay much attention to underwater plants in the past. It can be said that this was a blank slate. He didn't expect the people of the Wenji Continent to remind him of this matter.
However, this was an opportunity for him. He can first understand the underwater plants and then try to improve one or two of them. After that, he can let the people of the Wenji Continent use them. When he leaves the Wenji Continent in the future, he would be able to study these underwater plants.
In the next few days, Zhao Hai went to the academy and did what he wanted to do. He didn't make any unexpected discoveries. Lan Zhi also didn't come looking for him, it seems like he had forgotten about this matter.
On the tenth day after Lan Zhi came looking for him, Lan Zhi sent someone to invite him to his office. When Zhao Hai entered the office, he discovered that there were two other people besides Lan Zhi. These two scholars weren't young, they seemed to be around 40 years old. Moreover, the soul objects above their heads were two paintings.
When Zhao Hai entered the room, he immediately gave Lan Zhi a salute. Lan Zhi and the other two also returned the salute. Then Lan Zhi invited Zhao Hai to sit down and said, "Mister, please take a seat. Come, let me introduce you. These two are Teacher Pu Li and Teacher Gong Yu from the Painting Academy. They will be working together with Mister. They can stay underwater for a long time, so they can cooperate with Mister."
When Zhao Hai heard Lan Zhi, he couldn't help but stare. Then he immediately nodded to the two and said, "I'll have to ask the two of you to take care of me in the future."
Pu Li smiled and said, "Mister is too polite. Mister is helping the Wenji Continent. How could we accept Mister's words?"
Lan Zhi waved his hand and said, "There's no need to be polite. You will be cooperating for a long time in the future. Mister Zhao Hai, I'll have to trouble you this time."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "This is what I should do. When will we leave?"
Lan Zhi replied, "It's up to Mister. Whenever Mister has time, you can leave."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he calculated the time and said, "Alright, I'll go back and prepare. We'll find out tomorrow. First, we'll go to the river to observe. Then we'll go to the lake to observe. Finally, we'll go to the sea to observe. Since the water in these three places is different, we need to observe carefully."
Lan Zhi nodded and said, "Then I'll leave it to Mister. Everything will be up to Mister."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll go and prepare. We'll leave tomorrow. Goodbye." Then Zhao Hai stood up and gave the three people a salute before he turned around and left.
After seeing Zhao Hai leave, Lan Zhi turned to Pu Li and Gong Yu and said, "I'll leave Mister Zhao Hai's safety to the two of you. If you can handle this matter well, then it would be very important for the Wenji Continent. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask."
Pu Li thought for a moment before replying in a deep voice, "Although only the two of us will accompany Mister into the water this time, we will need a lot of cooperation on the shore. Therefore, I will leave the matter of the cliff to Dean Lan."
Lan Zhi nodded and said, "That's not a problem. I'll take care of everything on the shore. I hope that we can succeed this time. If we succeed, then the Wenji Continent wouldn't need to worry about the Fishmen attacking us."
The two nodded and didn't say anything. They were also people who experienced the war. Naturally, they knew how terrifying the Fishmen were. If a Broken River Expert didn't make a move, then the Wenji Continent would be in a lot of trouble. It was precisely because of this that the higher-ups of the Eight Great Academies came up with this plan. If this plan succeeds, then it would be a good thing for them.
Zhao Hai returned to his room and tidied up his things. Then he went to the library and borrowed a few books before taking a good rest. For him, underwater wasn't a strange place. It's just that he neglected the underwater plants. Now, he can make up for it.
The next morning, after Zhao Hai had his breakfast, he went to look for Lan Zhi. Lan Zhi and the others were already prepared. This time, it wasn't just the three of them who were going. Including Zhao Hai and the others, there would be a total of 50 people. Ten of them were Plant Masters, while the other professions would be present as well. In total, 20 carriages would be used.
When Zhao Hai arrived at Lan Zhi's place, the others were already prepared. Zhao Hai looked at Lan Zhi and said, "Mister Lan, we can set off once we're ready. However, our first stop isn't too far from Luolu City. It just so happens that there's a large river outside of Luolu City. We can choose a place on the river and then go underwater to observe."
Lan Zhi nodded, then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "I also thought about this. Mister, you can go upstream for a while. There aren't a lot of ships that pass through there every day. There are some places where the water flow is very gentle, but the water surface is very wide. You can choose a place at will. After you choose a place, send someone back to inform me. Then you don't need to worry about supplies." Zhao Hai nodded and didn't say anything. He put his wooden box on a carriage and then left the academy with the others.
When they left the academy, many students received the news and came to see them off. Zhao Hai and the others took a while to get out of Luolu City. When they arrived outside the city, Zhao Hai and the others got on the carriage and went straight to the river. They were looking for a suitable place to set up camp.
Walking along the river, Zhao Hai observed the river while walking. Their operation this time was very important, so it was best to choose a good place.
However, even after walking all morning, they didn't find a good place. At noon, they found a place to stop the carriage and gave the horses some fodder. The people also needed to eat something.
Everyone got down from the carriages and stretched their hands and feet. Zhao looked at the others and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, do any of you know anything about this river? Please come out. "
Everyone stared, then two Beast Spirits came out and gave Zhao Hai a salute, "We've seen Mister. We've been to this river before, so we have some understanding of it. May I ask what Mister wants us to do?"
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "Do you know where the river is wide, where there are fewer ships, and where the water is gentle? We'll go there directly. "
The two Soul Beasts thought for a moment, then one of them said, "Mister, if you walk for three days from here, you will reach a place called Mirror Beach. Mirror Beach isn't the main channel of the river, it's actually a branch channel. The channel there is very wide, and the water flow is very gentle. Because it's a branch channel, there aren't many ships passing by. It should be the place mister was talking about." The Soul Beasts nodded and said, "Mister, if you walk for three days, you will reach a place called Mirror Beach.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Three days, very good. We'll speed up and try to get there as soon as possible. Then we'll see if it's suitable. If it's suitable, then we'll set up camp there and then we'll send a letter to Dean Lan."
Naturally, no one objected. Although Zhao Hai was an outsider, the people here were all from the Sunset City Branch. They had seen the battle between Zhao Hai and the Fishmen. To be honest, they were very convinced of Zhao Hai's strength. If it weren't for Zhao Hai using the ice wall to block the attacks of the Fishmen, then who knows what would've happened to Sunset City.
Everyone ate a simple meal before they got on the carriage and set off. At night, because Zhao Hai and the others were in a hurry, they didn't find a place to stay. Therefore, they spent the night outside. The next morning, they continued their journey. Finally, on the afternoon of the third day, they arrived at the Mirror Beach that the Beast Spirit spoke of.
This was a branch of the river. On the side of the river was a large piece of wasteland. The terrain was very flat, and the water flow was also very gentle. This was because most of the land here was wasteland, nobody would cultivate it. This made it very convenient for them to move around.
Zhao Hai and the others got off the carriage and looked around before they nodded. Zhao Hai turned to Pu Li and Gong Yu and said, "Misters, what do you think about this place?"
Pu Li and Gong Yu nodded. Then Gong Yu said, "The water flow here is very gentle. If we go down here, we can stay underwater for a long time. I think we should choose this place."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, if the two Misters think that it's suitable, then we'll choose this place. Send two people back to Dean Lan to deliver a letter. Then have the others prepare a place for us to camp." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, if the two Misters think that it's suitable, then that's good.
Everyone nodded. Then two Soul Soldiers immediately went back to send a letter to Lan Zhi. Then the others began to organize the place and prepare to set up camp.
With everyone working together, it was very easy for them to organize the place. Before long, a simple camp was set up. Everyone moved the things from the carriages and began to set up tents. Everything proceeded in an orderly manner.
