When Number 1 saw her distraught appearance, he knew what she was thinking, but he couldn't just decide to give it to her; he had to discuss it with his teammates first.
They brought back quite a few people this time, nearly 20, so the distribution of the spoils must be handled properly.
Yan Zi stared at the stones, feeling a pang of regret. She really wanted to touch them, but unfortunately, she couldn't.
Number 1 was fiddling with his contacts, and it took him five minutes to arrive.
He simply cut four stones for her.
"Comrade Yan Zi, these four are a free gift to you, and the rest will be divided equally among my brothers."
Yan Zi nodded and was about to put the things away when the other person handed her a wooden box, put four stones inside, and then handed it to her with both hands.
As soon as Yan Zi took it, Number 1 carefully instructed, "Don't touch it with your hands."
Upon hearing this, Yan Zi couldn't help but awkwardly twitch the corners of her mouth.
In this case, her innate skills cannot be used.
Yan Zi accepted No. 1's kindness in its entirety.
With this wave of experience gained, Yan Zi's experience level jumped up a little more, but there was still not much progress.
After learning about the origin of the crack from Number 1, she went to find Mingyue.
Mingyue was flattered. She had thought that the previous incident had caused a rift between her and her master, and she was afraid that saying too much would make her make a mistake. Therefore, she reduced the time she spent with him and did not dare to hang around in front of Yan Zi, for fear of reminding her of those bad memories.
Unexpectedly, Yan Zi was still willing to come to her and even gave her a new task.
This made Mingyue beam with joy.
The anxiety that had been building up for days vanished completely after this task was assigned.
So... so she wasn't abandoned by her master after all...
At her call, all the mermaids began searching for the remaining cracks.
Many mermaids were quite surprised; they never knew their chieftain could laugh so happily!
Since they joined the tribe, they had never seen Chief Mingyue smile. They had thought that the chief was naturally averse to smiling.
Not only them, but even the newcomers could feel that their clan leader's complexion had improved a lot recently.
And all of this was caused by that human envoy.
Unconsciously, Yan Zi has established an even greater image in their hearts.
Mingyue searched high and low within her own tribe and also made contact with some other races, establishing good peaceful relations. From them, she learned some stories about the rifts, and by piecing them together, she actually managed to come up with three.
After Yan Zi restored all four stones, she leveled up by one and then followed Mingyue to the exit of the three rifts.
The three cracks are located in three major areas.
Yan Zi's first stop was the Shui tribe, which, as the name suggests, is located in a sea area.
The Zhou Dynasty was filled with the carcasses of fish. After they died, they floated on the sea surface and could not sink to the bottom of the sea. No one dared to eat them.
Any beasts that consumed these fish would mutate into demons and wreak havoc throughout the aquatic seas. Over time, the aquatic chieftain carved out a special area to store these dead fish that had eaten the spoiled food...
The reason Mingyue was able to contact the chief of the aquatic tribe was because the tribe had begun to suffer from famine, and they dared not go out to hunt. Some greedy younger members secretly slipped out to eat the dead fish, causing a large number of the tribe to mutate...
Currently, its population is in grave danger.
I urgently need help from others.
It was at this moment that Mingyue proposed the idea of helping each other out of friendship, and the other party agreed without hesitation, even eager to get things done quickly...
Upon hearing this, Yan Zi took a deep breath and then inquired about the signs of infection.
Mingyue: "I've already tested it. All it takes is consuming a large amount of purifying herbs to recover! I've already sold a batch to the aquatic clan chief, and so far, my net income has reached 100,000."
Yan Zi nodded: "You did a good job this time!"
"lead the way!"
Mingyue nodded with a smile, and then led her to the settlement of the Shui tribe.
As soon as they landed, they discovered a number of strange-looking fish and sea monsters.
Yan Zi launched an attack as soon as she got close to them.
Mingyue stepped forward and showed a token.
All the fish monsters immediately stood in two rows, assuming a welcoming posture, giving off a sense of being greeters.
Yan Zi and Ming Yue were welcomed inside by the fish monsters and soon arrived at a gloomy cave.
She frowned. The smell here was strange, a nauseating odor that made her want to vomit after smelling it for a while.
She immediately put on a gas mask.
Mingyue also brought one along.
As soon as the two made this move, the other fish monsters stared at them expectantly.
Yan Zi blinked in confusion, then asked, "What's going on with these fish monsters?"
Mingyue shook her head: "Master, don't worry about them. They probably just have bad eyesight."
The fish monsters were instantly disheartened, and their eyes drooped.
Yan Zi followed Mingyue into the deepest part of Qiao Cave, where she saw a human-like elf.
It looks a bit like a Smurf.
As soon as Yan Zi stopped, Mingyue stepped forward to introduce her.
"This is the leader of the fish monsters, Blue Lake."
“This is my human master: Miss Yan Zi. You may make any requests you may have.”
Mingyue spoke gently. Lanhu remained silent for a while, then glanced at Mingyue before turning back to look at Yanzi.
It was as if they had made a tremendous decision.
He asked hesitantly, "Miss Human, could you also prepare some of the equipment you have on your face?"
Yan Zi took a gas mask out of her backpack and handed it to him.
Upon seeing it, Lan Hu was instantly excited.
He frantically tried to put the mask on his face, but he missed and ended up breaking it.
Yan Zi remained silent.
Seeing that his face had turned somewhat pale, she immediately signaled to Mingyue.
Mingyue immediately understood, stepped forward and took the gas mask from his hand, then put a new one on him.
When Lan Hu saw that the same prop was on her face, she took a deep breath and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that she could breathe normally.
He tried to speak and found it went smoothly. He jumped up and down excitedly, as happy as a child.
Yan Zi: This clan leader seems a bit eccentric.
When Mingyue saw her master's expression, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
She explained, "Blue Lake is the current chief of the Water Clan. He's just over a hundred years old, so he's still unaware of some new developments. The elders of their clan don't interact much with the outside world, so naturally they don't know about these things."
