Now that he had decided to try it, Su Lun directly stopped the ship in this area and then went into the sea to catch some seafood himself.
A one-meter-long Ornate Embroidered Lobster was caught. Such a big Ornate Embroidered Lobster waved its two big pincers and looked very intimidating. However, it was not facing the sea creatures this time. Suhlen snapped his fingers and a tiny lightning flashed. The lobster was electrocuted and twitched all over.
After handing the lobster to the chef, Suhlen was ready to go to the sea again. He saw a clam shell in the sea just now. Maybe there were pearls inside.
The underwater world was very beautiful. Su Lun found many beautiful corals and colorful fish swimming back and forth in the corals. The coral reef was unexpectedly lively. On the surrounding rocks, there were a large number of shells, oysters, shrimps and crabs living. A few turtles the size of millstones were leisurely paddling in the water.
At this time, a little blue fluorescent light flashed in the sea not far away. Soon, the fluorescent light swam over. When it got closer, it was discovered that the fluorescent light was actually a large number of jellyfish. Jellyfish were widely distributed in the sea. These beautiful creatures that looked almost transparent were very dangerous.
Ninety percent of jellyfish were highly poisonous. Although they looked beautiful, they were actually carnivorous. A large group of light-blue fluorescent jellyfish appeared in front of them. There were hundreds of jellyfish in this group. The small fish around the coral reef were all scared and hid in the crevices.
A few turtles that were paddling nearby immediately became spirited after seeing the large number of jellyfish. They quickly swam over. These jellyfish that were very dangerous to other creatures were the best food for the turtles.
The usually slow-moving turtles quickly caught up with the jellyfish. Then, they bit down on one of the jellyfish as if they were drinking water. In an instant, more than half of the jellyfish were sucked in. Then, with another bite, the jellyfish was eaten by the turtles.
The group of jellyfish that were showing off suddenly panicked. Hundreds of jellyfish fled in panic under the onslaught of the turtles. Suhlen watched for a while and lost interest. He was going to look around for the giant clams. The pearls of the Eastern Sea were very popular in the Western Continent.
These pearls were not only beautiful, but also had magic power. They were important materials for enchantment. The most precious one was a kind of pearl called mermaid pearl. It was said that this pearl could only be cultivated by mermaids in the Eastern Continent. It was very rare and very precious.
Suhlen quickly found a giant clam in the sea. The giant clam seemed to feel danger and closed its shell tightly. Suhlen gently knocked on the clam's shell. The clam's shell was as hard as iron. A flash of lightning flashed on Suhlen's hand hand hand, and then it instantly disappeared to enter the shell...
A burst of thunder and lightning sounded. Soon, a gap opened up on the clam's shell. The thunder and lightning just now had paralyzed the giant clam's body. Suhlen easily opened the clam's shell.
A pearl swayed slightly in the clam's shell. The pearl had a diameter of ten centimeters, and its color was light blue. It was very beautiful. Suhlen directly took out the pearl. After taking out the pearl, Suhlen let go of the giant clam and then looked around for more clams.
When Hathaway called him for lunch, he had already found more than ten pearls. However, other than the first pearl, the rest of the pearls were not big.
Lunch was very sumptuous. The chef that Suhlen brought this time was the best student of the halfling Frodo. His cooking skills were very good. The one-meter-long Splendid Brocade Lobster was made into a full lobster feast. The crystal clear lobster meat was neatly cut on the plate, and there was a layer of ice below. The ice was emitting a faint chill, which made the lobster meat even more chewy. Together with the carefully prepared dipping sauce, the lobster meat was delicious.
Of course, other than this way of eating, there was also a serving of stir-fried lobster meat. The lobster meat was stir-fried with onion, bell pepper, and pepper. Every bite was blissful. On the side, there was also a serving of lobster soup. The lobster meat was braised with some seaweed and seaweed. It was delicious.
After enjoying the delicious meal, Suhlen gave the pearls that he had just collected to Hathaway. After seeing the big pearl that was more than ten centimeters long, Hathaway's eyes lit up. She could not wait to snatch the pearl.
"It's so beautiful! Is there more? "Hathaway asked while holding the big pearl with both hands.
"There are still some small pearls. If you like them, you can have them all!" Suhlen took out the rest of the pearls and gave them to Hathaway.
"By the way, Suhlen, did you find the Magic Pearl Clam below?" Hathaway suddenly asked.
"The Magic Pearl Clam? I didn't see it. "Suhlen shrugged." It's hard to find that thing. "
"Oh!" Hathaway looked disappointed.
"I remember that the Magic Pearl Clam is the product of the ancient arcanists' transformation. If you want it, you can try to cultivate it." Suhlen said, "We can open up a water area in the Wizard Tower to cultivate the Magic Pearl Clam."
"That's worth a try!" Hathaway thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. Then the two went into the sea again and searched for many different kinds of shells and clams. Then they opened up a room on the Furious Dragon, poured seawater into it, and put the clams in.
Under the effect of magic, the environment here would be the same as the ocean, and the giant clams could live normally in it.
"The ancient wizards carried out some bloodline transformation experiments. These experiments were developed to the peak during the Witch King Era. But after the Witch King Era was destroyed, there were fewer such experiments."
"The Arcane Empire also did a lot of research on bloodline transformation experiments. I'm going to try to transform a Magic Pearl Clam."
"Well, if the transformation is successful, we can continue to get the Magic Pearl Clam. If you need anything, I'll ask someone to find it." Suhlen nodded and said.
The most successful example of bloodline transformation was the warlocks. Hathaway's idea of transforming the Magic Pearl Clam was not whimsical. There was a creature that was very successful in bloodline transformation in the North Town — the Crystal Beast.
The Crystal Beast was originally just an ordinary beast. It might swallow rocks to increase the hardness of its scales, but it would not produce crystals. It was the product of the Arcanist's bloodline transformation. Similar creatures were the Mining Worm, the Metal Eater, and so on.
It was difficult to transform a kind of Magic Pearl Clam out of thin air, but it was much easier to do research when there was a complete information. Moreover, the transformation of the Magic Pearl Clam was much easier than that of the Crystal Beast.
In modern terms, the Witch King Era was a time when biological modification technology was very important. During the Witch King Era, every powerful wizard controlled a country. They were called Witch Kings. The country controlled by a Witch King usually lasted for hundreds or even thousands of years until the Witch King died.
In the Witch King Era, the wizards were very powerful, but their skills were skewed. They put too much energy into biological bloodline transformation technology. In the end, the Witch King Era did not enter the Interstellar Era. Of course, part of the reason was that the Witch King Era was interrupted by the Arcane Empire. It was unknown if the Witch King Era could enter the Interstellar Era without the Arcane Empire's interruption.
Of course, the feasibility was very low. The Witch King Era was very rigid, and technological progress was slow. Suhlen estimated that even after a few thousand years, the Witch King Era could not enter the Interstellar Era.
The biological bloodline transformation technology was still very advanced, and it was also studied during the Arcane Empire. The Beastmen were the products of the Arcane Empire. During the Arcane Empire, the arcanists had almost no respect for life, and in the end, they even regarded themselves as gods.
There were even many Arcanists who would create intelligent life by themselves. They carefully cultivated it through genetic transformation technology, and then used enlightenment to unlock the intelligence of the finished product. After confirming that the product had the ability to reproduce, it was basically a success. However, this kind of modified creature was not screened by nature. Without other interference, it was easy to be eliminated by nature, such as reproductive degradation, natural enemies, environmental adaptation, genetic defects, and so on.
Most of the intelligent creatures created by the Arcanists had gone extinct. Only a small number of them had slowly reproduced after natural evolution. Of course, the intelligent creatures created in this way were far from comparable to human beings.
The reason why human beings could reproduce and prosper in the multiverse, in addition to their strong reproductive ability, the most important thing was that their brain structure was excellent. Basically, all intelligent creatures that could really reproduce a civilization had a better brain structure than other life forms.
After staying in the sea for a day, the fleet set off again. In fact, the fleet was not far from the Eastern Continent. Along the way, Suhlen used the strategic map to draw a more complete nautical chart. At the same time, the route was also marked. The surrounding islands, sea monsters, reefs, and ocean currents were also marked.
According to the route on the nautical chart, they could sail to the Eastern Continent.
After sailing for a few more days, the fleet finally approached the Eastern Continent. In the distance, the withered earth appeared, the towering mountains rose and fell, and the wind rolled up sand and dust to cover the sky. Suhlen did not need to be close to know that the environment here was very bad.
The Eastern Continent was severely damaged in the war. Nearly half of the originally fertile continent had become desert. Even after thousands of years, the environment here was still very bad.
The Eastern Continent was four to five times the size of the Western Continent, but the population here was only half of that of the Western Continent. Most of the population here was concentrated in the southern plains and coastal areas. The other areas had a very bad environment and were not suitable for living.
The fleet continued to sail south along the coastline. After about two days of sailing, other ships began to appear on the surrounding sea, indicating that they had arrived at a busy shipping route and were very close to the nearest port.
When the sun rose again, a lighthouse appeared on the distant coastline. They had arrived at their destination this time.
