In the southeast corner of Black Horse Island, there is a bare beach with some scattered wooden houses.
Although it is impossible to grow crops here, there are abundant seafood resources on the beach. The port town's sampan fishing team often comes here to catch seafood to provide food for the territory.
At this time, Liszt, wearing only leather armor and shorts, was sitting on a sampan and rowing to the sea.
All his entourage stayed on the beach. He came to explore the giant kelp forest on the bottom of the sea alone. Because he needs to communicate with the siren A Qi at all times, it is very inconvenient to bring his entourage.
With A Qi at the bottom of the sea.
It was easy to come to the top of the giant kelp forest, hang down a rope, and let A Qi fix the sampan.
Before Liszt was ready to dive to the bottom of the sea, he asked, "A Qi, although I can swim, it is difficult to exert my strength in the sea. After all, I have fire attribute qi. I need you to guide me."
"Brother, don't worry, A Qi will protect you, just like I protect A Qi!"
"At present, the limit of my breath holding time is fifteen minutes. In order to speed up the exploration, I need you to take me swimming."
"Okay."
A Qi swims very fast. If Liszt swims by himself, he would probably spend more than half of the fifteen minutes holding time swimming. There is not much time to explore the giant kelp forest.
He took a deep breath.
Crash.
Liszt jumped directly into the sea, followed the current manipulated by A Qi, and quickly dived to the bottom. His strong physical fitness allows him to rely on qi to slow down the use of oxygen – if the physical rules of the world are the same as those of the earth, and combustion and breathing are carried out using oxygen.
In this world, ordinary people can probably hold their breath for a minute. It is normal for regular trained fishermen to hold their breath for three or five minutes.
Any higher, one must rely on qi. There is a Trainee Knight on Black Horse Island who often dives. He can hold his breath for 20 minutes and can hold his breath for 30 minutes when stationary.
Liszt hasn't trained much. The record for holding his breath with the help of qi is 15 minutes, and he can hold his breath for 18 minutes when stationary.
The sea is exceptionally clear. Although the field of vision is narrower than on land, it is still possible to see a long distance.
A Qi manipulates the water in the shell, wrapping him quickly to the edge of the giant kelp forest. Looking at it, the whole giant kelp forest really looks like a forest growing on the bottom of the sea. The giant kelp stretches straight to the surface of the sea, blocking the sun into fine light.
Most of them are yellow or green.
It looked a little like kelp.
However, the giant seaweed had a trunk with many slender leaves that swayed left and right as the seawater flowed. Their roots gripped the rocks of the seabed, and many small fish swam between the giant algae. Sometimes, the small fish would stir up the giant algae, entangling them together.
There were also a large number of corals, sea anemones, and other creatures on the seabed.
Liszt was not in the mood to appreciate the beauty of the seabed. He quickly cast Magic Eyes and scanned the giant algae, but he did not find the light of Mana Retroaction.
He patted A Qi's shell.
A Qi understood and immediately controlled the water flow, bringing Liszt with her as she swam towards the giant algae. However, they swam around the periphery of the forest on the offshore end. Magic Eye kept scanning, looking for possible worm stalks. Fifteen minutes passed in the blink of an eye, but he did not see any worm stalks.
Liszt floated to the surface of the water and took a deep breath.
He then let A Qi bring him to the next part of the giant algae forest. The giant algae forest on the seabed was indeed boundless, with no end in sight.
Inside the giant algae forest, the light was poor and the field of vision was very short, which increased the difficulty of Magic Eye's observation.
However, Liszt's temperament was that once he did it, he would complete it. There was no reason for him to give up halfway. Once or twice, he continued to search for more of the kelp forest. Finally, after three hours of searching, on his ninth dive, he saw the light he wanted to see.
The light of chaotic colors was distributed on a giant algae more than thirty meters long.
It almost reached the surface of the sea.
Quickly swimming towards the giant algae, Liszt quickly found the yellow-brown sprite worm entrenched at the roots of the kelp. Originally, Liszt thought of letting A Qi contract the giant algae worm, but since he had been working hard for so long, he might as well do it himself.
Thereupon, he took out jade powder and sprinkled it at the roots of the giant algae.
The jade powder swayed a bit in the seawater and was not easy to adhere to. However, it still successfully attracted the giant algae worm, which slowly swam over and licked the jade powder.
Next, while it was opening its mouth, Liszt forcibly stuffed his finger into it.
He took a bite.
He felt a telepathic connection. He had already successfully contracted with the giant algae worm. He could feel the calm, tranquil, and relaxed mood of the little guy, as if he had transformed into a giant algae quietly stretching out in the sea.
Together with the giant algae worm, he quickly floated to the surface of the water.
"Huff!"
He let out a long breath, inhaling the salty and fishy air on the surface of the sea. When A Qi also emerged from the water and opened her shell, he directly threw the giant algae worm into A Qi's shell and said, "A Qi, take good care of this giant algae worm for me."
"Mhm."
A Qi's shell had practically become a small worm house for the sprite worm, following A Qi around every day.
"Let me rest for a while, then we will go back." Liszt was lifted by the water current controlled by A Qi to float on the surface of the sea and restore his strength.
At the same time, he called for a smoke mission.
"Mission complete. Reward: one giant algae sprite worm."
Three hours of hard work in exchange for a sprite worm was well worth it. The only regrettable thing was that the seaweed crops cultivated by the sea sprite worms were in the sea. The seaweed and seaweed grown by the kelp worm and seaweed sprite worms had already become food for the fishermen.
However, the seaweed grown by the redstone flower worm, horsetail worm, and black horn worm had yet to be used.
As for the giant algae worm, it was unknown whether the giant algae it represented could be eaten. If it could be eaten, the fishermen could come and catch it.
In a trance.
The Serpentines composed of smoke distorted and reorganized the content: "Mission: the giant algae sprite worm seems to be only a corner of the giant algae forest's secrets. This vast undersea forest is worth exploring further and deeper into the forest to fully unearth its secrets. Reward: a new species of giant algae. "
"Hmm?"
Liszt was surprised. He did not expect that the giant algae forest mission was still not over. It seemed to be a chain mission: "A new species of giant algae, what kind is it? Could it be a magic ingredient?"
Whether it was a magic ingredient or not.
The exploration of the giant algae forest had to continue. It was already late in the morning, so he made an appointment with A Qi to continue in the afternoon. Liszt swam to the sampan and rowed to the shore. Surrounded by servants, he put on his frac abier and returned to the port town for lunch.
After lunch, he took a nap.
The search continued.
