Chapter 123: Generous Rewards for Large Quests

[Reward 1: Automatic protection of the red tide removal area system]

Reward 2: Sea Coin*

[Reward 3: Seaweed Mud*100 packs]

[Reward 4: Luminous Bead*1]

Is this a large-scale quest? The reward isn't to select any one, but to select them all. Click on them one by one, and you'll collect them all.

The Haibi investment was a win-win. She'd spent 110,000 Haibi, and each round trip yielded a Haibi profit. The remaining items were guaranteed to be profitable.

【Seaweed Mud: Contains Infinite Vitality】

[Luminous beads: warm in winter and cool in summer, emit blue light in the dark]

It all sounds like good stuff. Cheng Zhenzhu looked at the fine red soil, picked it up, and touched it. It was smooth and moist, with a faint, alluring fragrance... The system didn't provide any details about its use, but it was obvious at first glance that it was good stuff.

Cheng Zhenzhu washed her hands and her eyes fell on the round, luminous, cold little bead in her palm, wondering if it had any connection with the night pearl.

She had only heard of the Night Pearl, but had never seen one. It was said to be priceless, comparable to the Heshi Jade. So, the one she held must be a hundred times more precious than the previous gold pearl?

After the valuation, the system did not produce a result. Cheng Zhenzhu was even more certain of the preciousness of the pearl.

She couldn't bear to sell the gold bead, let alone this one, which she had to treasure! However, even if she treasured it well, it would only mean that she could make room for a jewelry box for it...

After sorting out the last three rewards, Cheng Zhenzhu began to study the first reward - the system's automatic protection. This was not a physical object, but an invisible energy.

Previously, the system would only activate automatic protection during underwater missions. Now, this reward meant that as long as she was in an area where the red tide had existed, she could dive into the seabed as if it were flat ground, doing whatever she wanted without getting hurt?

After the interpretation, Cheng Zhenzhu immediately dove into the water. She loved this reward. Before, she could only paddle on the surface, but now she could circle the seabed...

With the protection of the system, after swimming for dozens of meters, Cheng Zhenzhu still felt relaxed and without any sense of oppression. Her vision remained clear and she could even see the big sea turtle gliding past at a high speed.

She thought it was just a chance encounter, but the two turtles swam over and stood shoulder to shoulder with her.

[Turtle Friend Halo is now enabled]

She almost forgot about this useless bonus... I wonder if these two turtles are the same ones she helped remove barnacles from before. They look the same, so she can't tell them apart. And this aura applies to all turtles...

Cheng Zhenzhu touched the backs of the two big turtles. The two turtles came closer to each other and seemed more intimate. They also motioned for her to follow them and took her home to pick out gifts to thank her for helping them remove barnacles.

Why does she know so much? It’s all thanks to the [Turtle Friend Halo].

Thanks to the halo, she understands a new language - Turtle Language.

Cheng Zhenzhu couldn't refuse, so she followed the two turtles and pulled some small fish and shrimps into the net along the way, intending to give them as a return gift.

The net was the one she had repaired earlier. Now that it was repaired, it had to be put to some use...

Cheng Zhenzhu caught fish with her bare hands and followed the turtle around, observing its movements. The underwater world was even more mysterious and colorful than she had imagined. Huge rocks and vibrant corals, in a myriad of shapes and sizes, resembled an unfathomable underwater garden.

The deeper we go, the darker the blue of the sea becomes, and the more vibrant the creatures within. Squirming sea cucumbers, dazzling anemones, great blue sharks baring their sharp teeth, and snakelike creatures lurking in the coral reefs, their heads peeking out furtively...

However, they all avoided Cheng Zhenzhu and his group intentionally or unintentionally.

After descending a few dozen meters, the two turtles suddenly stopped. Cheng Zhenzhu also stopped and handed the fish and shrimp in the net to the two turtles.

The turtle's home was beyond the system's protection range, so it was inconvenient for her to go there.

The two sea turtles spun around with the net in their mouths, leaving the pearls behind. Then, they worked together to remove the fish and shrimp from the net, along with the net...

Cheng Zhenzhu was silent for a moment and looked around.

She didn't know how far from the water she was. The light was dim, and the creatures around her seemed to be observing her, an outsider, and their movements were hesitant...

"Jili Gulu~" Two large green turtles appeared in front of Cheng Zhenzhu again. They had fishing nets hanging on their bodies, with some broken pieces of dishes dragged in them? There were also a few necklaces and some golden bricks?

One of the big turtles arched its back to form a pearl, signaling her to take it quickly.

Cheng Zhenzhu grabbed a heavy golden brick, and a feeling of excitement and excitement surged in her heart.

It was a gold brick! This simple, unadorned golden color was truly appealing. Cheng Zhenzhu held two gold bricks and a pale pink pearl necklace that shone with a scattered luster.

The pearls are perfectly round, but perhaps due to being soaked for too long, the surface layer has shed a bit, making them appear even more ancient and quiet, transcending time...

Could these broken pieces of bowls and dishes be pieces of porcelain? As the thought flashed through her mind, she felt a surge of joy.

To confirm her guess, Cheng Zhenzhu slowly wiped away the moss on the surface of the fragment. After the dirt was cleaned away, a simple yet lifelike pattern suddenly came into view, exuding a strong and ancient atmosphere.

White as jade, thin as paper, chime-like, and bright as a mirror—truly porcelain. Suddenly, Cheng Zhenzhu thought of something: Could there be a shipwreck nearby? Otherwise, where would these precious objects come from?

"Thank you for your gifts. I like them very much." Cheng Zhenzhu thanked the two big turtles for their gifts and touched their heads.

"There are many more like this. We don't want these things that take up our nests. If you like them, we'll give them all to you." A big turtle said proudly.
