Chapter 39 You Are Not a Waste Girl

"Xiaochen, I can hold my breath underwater for a long time!"

"Xiaochen, I can see very clearly in the water, even the sand at the bottom!"

"Xiaochen, the fish in the water are not afraid of me!"

“…”

Following Lin Zichen's suggestion, Shen Qinghan continued to try various operations in the water to test his swimming ability.

After each attempt, her little face would be filled with surprise. She never expected that she could perform so many magical underwater operations.

Suddenly I felt like I didn’t understand myself.

Lin Zichen watched the whole process from the side, his face also full of surprise.

The ability Shen Qinghan displayed in the water was in no way inferior to his who possessed the attribute of [Luck of Melting Water].

His water ability is so extraordinary, what else could it be but an extraordinary power?

The bed-wetter? Water elementalist!

In the following time, Lin Zichen kept asking Shen Qinghan to perform various underwater operations to see if there were any special changes in her body during this period.

For example, abnormal expansion or contraction of pores, sudden increase or decrease in body temperature, sudden acceleration or deceleration of heartbeat, etc.

But after observing for a while, I found nothing.

When Shen Qinghan was soaking in water, his physical condition was no different from that of an ordinary person, and there were no special changes.

"It seems that I won't be able to find the answer just by observing her. I need to go back and search online or read relevant books to solve this mystery..."

Lin Zichen thought silently in his heart.

While he was thinking about this, Shen Qinghan, who had been holding his breath in the water for more than ten minutes, emerged from the water with a cry.

Her whole little face turned red.

Breathing in big gulps of fresh air.

After she calmed down a bit, she looked at Lin Zichen expectantly and asked, "Xiaochen, how long have I been holding it in?"

"11 minutes and 2 seconds." Lin Zichen glanced at the timer on his phone and replied.

It is impossible to hold your breath underwater for such a long time without relevant professional training.

However, Shen Qinghan had never been to a swimming pool in his life, but at this moment he could hold his breath in the water for such a long time, which was simply incredible.

Shen Qinghan, realizing this, suddenly became excited and said, "Xiaochen, I seem to be very talented in water. I'm not a useless girl anymore!"

"You're not a loser to begin with. You were in the top 100 in the district in the cultural subjects of the high school entrance exam. How many people can dream of such a result?"

"But, in front of you, I am useless..."

"...I already said I'm not useless."

Before Shen Qinghan could finish her words, Lin Zichen, who was floating in front of her, interrupted her.

After that, the air around the two of them fell into silence.

Only the sound of the surging sea water and the blowing sea breeze linger in my ears from time to time.

After about three seconds, Shen Qinghan smiled sweetly and said, "Well, I'm not useless. I wasn't before, I'm not now, and I won't be in the future."

This is a smile that comes from the heart, filled with the most genuine joy.

At this time, Lin Yansheng on the shore shouted to the two of them: "Xiaochen, Hanhan, come over and have some barbecue!"

As the sound came, an enticing aroma of meat also wafted over.

Shen Qinghan couldn't help swallowing just by smelling it from a distance, then looked at Lin Zichen with a faint smile and said, "Xiaochen, let's go over and have some barbecue!"

After saying that, she turned and headed towards the shore, eager to swim ashore to enjoy the barbecue.

But just as she was about to make swimming movements, she suddenly stopped in the water for some reason and her face looked a little strange.

Seeing this familiar strange expression, Lin Zichen realized something and instantly became numb. He quickly pretended that he knew nothing and swam quickly to the shore.

Although he was numb, he knew that Shen Qinghan didn't mean it and didn't blame her at all.

After all, for Shen Qinghan, there are some things she really can't control.

…

night.

Lin Zichen lay on the bed with his cell phone in hand, describing Shen Qinghan's incredible performance in the water today one by one and searching online.

In the end, nothing was gained.

He was also convinced. Why were the search engines in this world so useless that they didn't know anything about anything?

First there was the "Giant Butterfly of the Abyss", then there was the "Origin of Life", and now there is Shen Qinghan's "Incredible Water Nature", but none of the information I want can be found.

This world is so mysterious that nothing is known.

There is a kind of beauty that "without learning math, physics and chemistry, life is full of myths."

He shook his head and put down his phone.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around late at night, Lin Zichen left his sea view room and ran to the sea to swim and exercise.

He originally wanted to run for exercise, but when he thought of the indescribable feeling of soaking in water, he couldn't help but change to swimming.

At this stage, his desire for water is stronger than ever.

The reason why it turned out like this is due to the effect of the biological attribute [Luck of Melting Water].

I guess I will have to soak it in water a few more times until I get used to it, get tired of it, and the novelty wears off, and then it can return to normal.

…

[You swam 10 kilometers, Qi and Blood +8888, Whole Body Muscle Strength +2000, Whole Body Muscle Coordination +2000, Water Ability +1000, Swimming Skills +1000]

[You swam 10 kilometers underwater, Qi and blood +8888, whole body muscle strength +2000, whole body muscle coordination +2000, water ability +1000, deoxygenation ability +1000, water pressure resistance +1000, diving skills +1000]

After spending more than two hours, Lin Zichen finally completed his swimming exercise.

He sat on the shore for nearly half an hour, and when he felt he had rested enough, he quickly dived into the water again.

But this time, he did not swim for exercise, but held his breath underwater to explore the underwater world.

[You are using your eyes in the dim seabed. Deoxygenation Ability +1, Water Pressure Resistance +1, Underwater Vision +1, Night Vision +1...]

After some exploration, Lin Zichen found that the underwater world looked much richer than the land.

To sum it up simply with two idioms, it is colorful and varied.

The marine life living below is more diverse and more bizarre than that on land.

"The ocean is indeed the birthplace of life. Its richness seems far greater than that of land. I hope that one day I can evolve to survive in water and explore the mysterious underwater world..."

With this fantasy that might come true, Lin Zichen continued to hold his breath and explore under the sea, training his deoxygenation ability and ability to withstand water pressure.

[You are holding your breath in the dim seabed, deoxygenation ability +1, water pressure resistance +1]

[You are using your eyes in the dim seabed. Deoxygenation ability +1, water pressure resistance +1, underwater vision +1, night vision +1,]

[You are currently moving in the dim seabed. Water Movement Ability +1, Water Skill +1...]

In this way, Lin Zichen held his breath intermittently under the sea for nearly two hours. When he saw that the time was almost up, he surfaced and returned to the sea view room to rest.
