Liszt understood potions very well.
However, with the additional meaning of auxiliary, he felt that it was a bit awesome.
"Literally, auxiliary means to help. In other words, it can be made into a potion that can help digest magic power, or can it assist the growth of other potions? Or does it mean to mix it with other magic ingredients to create a magic potion that will have better effects? "
There was no way to deduce this.
Liszt could only wait. He was going to use the seeds to cultivate more new varieties of the auxiliary potion black nightshade, which would take some time. Despite the black nightshade bug's blessing, it would still take two or three months to see results.
Liszt held back his curiosity about the auxiliary potions.
He browsed through the new mission.
[Quest: Siren Ageloides Truth has found a magical coral reef. When the tide rises, it will be submerged. When the tide falls, it will reveal a circular reef. There are many giant clams living in it. There are a lot of black pearls in the shells. Why not collect a batch? Reward: a magic equipment. "
"Oh!"
This mission made Liszt's eyes light up. A Qi had found a coral reef with giant clams that could produce black pearls living on it.
It quickly reminded him of the giant clam he had fished up at the beach last year.
Although it was not a sea monster, yet it could produce black pearls with magical power. He thought that it was a giant clam that lived at the bottom of the sea and accidentally washed ashore. He did not expect that it was actually living on the coral reef near the Flower Town.
Without a doubt.
This giant clam could be developed into an industry – the black pearl industry.
The Sapphire Family had a tranquil lake on the Blue Dragon Island, where low-level sea monster pearl oysters were raised. Every year, it could produce a large number of white pearls, which were precious ornaments that noblewomen fought over. They had a certain calming effect. The black pearls had a better effect and were bigger, easily replacing the white pearls.
He soon arrived at the seascape villa.
He blew the horn and called A Qi, who was swimming in the sea.
"Brother." A Qi came out of the shell with the mangrove sprite Nami sitting on his shoulder. The sprite had become A Qi's undersea companion and was no longer a stranger to Liszt.
"A Qi, did you find a coral reef?"
"Brother, do you already know? A Qi found the coral reef yesterday. When the tide is low, it can emerge from the water like a large circular lake. There are a lot of shells living inside, which are different from A Qi's shells. It's a bit like the giant clam shell at the entrance of my brother's castle. "
After listening, Liszt said, "A Qi, these are giant clams. They can produce black pearls. It's the black pearl I gave you before. It's a very expensive material for magic equipment. It can be developed into a black pearl industry. I want you to find out the exact location of the coral reef and determine its distance. "
"A Qi knows. From here, it's about 30 kilometers away from the shore, about a little to the south," A Qi replied.
Thirty kilometers was a two-hour journey for the Flower.
After waiting for the Flower to return and calculating the ebb tide, Liszt ordered Kosto to sail in the direction indicated by A Qi. Along the way, A Qi surfaced from time to time and used her own trajectory to guide Liszt. Then, Liszt told Kosto.
Finally, at three o 'clock in the afternoon, they saw the coral reef that was already out of the water.
Its shape was a bit similar to the Splendid Reef in the South China Sea. Now that the tide was low, the circular reef was exposed from the water. These reefs developed from coral had already been weathered into fine white sand.
It was very soft to step on.
"Sir, it's really incredible that there are such beautiful coral reefs around the Flower Town." Even though Captain Kosto had been sailing all year round, he still hadn't seen such beautiful reefs.
Seagulls circled. The blue seawater was divided by the circular reefs. The outside was dark blue seawater, while the inside was a light blue lagoon. Near the sandy shore, colorful corals could be clearly seen. Captain Kosto deduced from the color that the lagoon was only about ten meters deep, which was very shallow.
Because A Qi had already scouted the area and found no sea monsters, Liszt had people dive to look for giant clams.
Before long, sailors came up one after another with small giant clams. These were giant clams that grew near the coast, the largest of which was only the size of a washbasin.
Breaking one open, he found that there was indeed a black pearl inside, but it was only a small black pearl the size of a fingernail.
Its magic power was also very dim.
Nevertheless, it still made Captain Kosto exclaim: "Sir, this … this is the Calm Pearl? How can it be so small? "He knew that the Calm Pearl on the Flower was made from black pearls.
He had also participated in the fishing of giant clams. He clearly remembered that the smallest black pearl was the size of a fist.
"Small giant clams naturally only have small black pearls. There are even larger giant clams in the lagoon. Once they are fished up, even larger black pearls can be collected."
"Can you fish out black pearls as big as the Calm Pearl?" Captain Kosto's eyes shone.
"It's very difficult. Who knows if there are any giant clams living inside." Liszt shook his head. He had A Qi observe the lagoon. The largest giant clam was only 1.5 meters in diameter. Compared to the giant clam in the castle, which had a diameter of nearly three meters, it was more than half the size.
The larger the giant clam, the larger the black pearl. After all, it took a long time to grow from a small black pearl to the size of a washbasin.
It was unknown whether the giant clam grew up in the lagoon or not.
"Lead the sailors to look for larger giant clams. Put the small giant clams back and let them continue to grow. We will fish out a batch of large giant clams."
"As you wish."
Captain Kosto immediately dived into the water to look for the large giant clams. The coral reefs above the water did not look too big. Looking from one side to the other side of the lagoon, it felt like there was a distance of five to six kilometers. The lagoon was approximately oval in shape, with an area of about twenty to thirty square kilometers.
It was a bit smaller than the Flower Town.
It was easy to find giant clams, but it was not easy to find large ones. After diving for a long time, the sailors had only found two large giant clams with a diameter of more than one meter.
They were hauled up with ropes and nets. The sky was about to turn dark.
"This should be considered as the completion of the task of collecting a batch of black pearls, right?" Liszt summoned the smoke mission and found that the contents of the mission had not changed.
Not knowing whether it was because the black pearls were still in the giant clam's shell or because the number of black pearls collected was not enough, he had the sailors drag the previously discovered smaller giant clams aboard the ship.
Only then did they announce their return.
After returning to the castle, the first thing they did was to open the giant clam's shell. Unfortunately, there were only five fist-sized black pearls in the two large giant clam's shell. There were only some fragmented small black pearls in the smaller giant clam's shell, not even the size of a ping pong ball.
"It seems that my dream of relying on black pearls to make the Sea-Calming Bead and arming the fleet will have to be put on hold for the time being … I was really lucky to be able to find three black pearls suitable for making the Sea-Calming Bead."
Liszt sorted out his mood.
He summoned the smoke mission again. This time, the smoke Serpentines finally changed.
