Chapter 219 Researching the Magical Waterbed "You did a great job."...
Shu Xin was completely confused.
The Tree of Life abruptly told her that the laws of the world require stability, but under Shu Xin's careful questioning, it, which was always ready to answer any question and speak frankly and without reservation, seemed to suddenly malfunction, giving an answer full of abstract beauty—
Shu Xin asked, "What happened to the laws of the world?"
He said, "The wind has risen over the endless sea."
Shu Xin asked what the Endless Sea was, where it was, and what its winds had to do with the laws of the world. The Tree of Life remained silent.
Shu Xin asked again, "What happened? Why is there a sudden need to stabilize the world's laws?"
He said, "The newborn is what should have withered."
Shu Xin pressed for details about what this thing that was both new and withering referred to, but the Tree of Life remained silent.
In the end, Shu Xin had no choice but to ask, "How can the laws of the world be stabilized?"
He then said, "You did a very good job."
Shu Xin: "???"
She reacted almost instantly: "You're not the Tree of Life, are you?! Who are you? Are you Garnal?! What are you doing?!"
However, the "Tree of Life" fell silent again, and no matter how many questions Shu Xin asked, "It" did not give any response.
After pondering this incredibly brief yet enigmatic dialogue with her arms crossed, Shu Xin felt the fog surrounding her growing even thicker.
There's a 99.9% chance that this suddenly appearing "Tree of Life" is King Ghanal himself. His answer seemed to contain a lot of information, but Shu Xin couldn't understand it at all!
The only thing that can be confirmed is that the king doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards her.
However, appreciating political enemies and destroying them are not mutually exclusive. When the king sent patrolmen to the land of sin to collect magic taxes, he showed no mercy whatsoever.
Rubbing her temples, Shu Xin stopped thinking about it. Whether "He" praised her for doing a good job or scolded her for doing a bad job, she still had to do what she was supposed to do, so there was no point in thinking about it. Getting to work was the most important thing.
Looking at the magical water-cooled bed in front of her, which exuded a chilling aura and was even covered with a thin layer of frost, Shu Xin tentatively asked the Tree of Life if there was something wrong with the magic circle again, and why the temperature was still so low.
After receiving specific suggestions for modifying the magic runes, Shu Xin breathed a sigh of relief. Great, the true Tree of Life has returned.
So Shu Xin picked up her magic wand and continued to "fight" the magic circle.
As the magical environment continues to improve, the temperature in the Land of Sin is slowly rising. The flower fairies have a certain tolerance for high temperatures and are more afraid of the cold, but Shu Xin herself is more afraid of the heat. She has clearly felt that this year is hotter than last year.
It's still the dry season now, and it will definitely get hotter when the rainy season comes. Since she doesn't have much to do, Shuxin is thinking about making something to cool herself down.
Shu Xin considered using miniature garden magic to regulate room temperature. The problem was that the main function of miniature garden magic was to regulate the concentration of magic power in the area, but the relationship between magic power concentration and temperature was not very significant. However, magic power attributes were directly related to temperature. Therefore, she quickly thought of the water element.
The thought of using water to cool down immediately brought to mind a waterbed, which she had never slept on before!
Because the structure was not complicated, and with the help of the all-powerful Tree of Life, Shu Xin quickly produced the finished product.
The outer cover was very simple and easy to obtain; Shu Xin simply asked the servants of the Flower Castle to help her order a straw-woven blanket from the flower fairies.
The blankets, handwoven by the tiny flower fairies from delicate and supple grass leaves and stems, were incredibly light and thin to Shu Xin, with a texture that was both delicate and soft, like a version of silk from another world.
However, this is precisely what puzzled Shu Xin the most. The rune chains inside the flower fairies' bodies had been removed, and so many days had passed. Logically, they should have grown taller and bigger, but in reality, their figures had not changed at all.
...It can't be said that there were no changes at all. The flower fairy slaves regained their commoner status in batches through their own efforts, and their height and body shape naturally became the same as those of commoners. However, after becoming commoners, they stopped growing taller. Now, all the flower fairy commoners in the Land of Sin are slightly larger "Thumbelinas", just like they used to be!
Shu Xin also asked the Tree of Life, and the Tree of Life gave a reply—it stated that the flower fairies' current size and their level of magical understanding were compatible.
This level of understanding of magic is quite thought-provoking...
While pondering how to improve the flower fairies' magical awareness, Shu Xin crafted the inner liner of the waterbed according to the magical recipe provided by the Tree of Life. The magical materials needed were also quite easy to obtain. The materials required for one magical inner liner were seven hairs from a magical cat with magical talents of defense and protection, and a leaf from the Tree of Life.
After processing the materials with refining magic, Shu Xin obtained seven tiny green crystals. Following the instructions of the magic recipe, she threw these seven green crystals into the purified water element, and then refined them again. A high-purity water element sphere emitting a faint magical glow was formed.
Wrap the water elemental ball, which serves as the inner lining, with the cut grass blanket, carefully seal the seams with a mixture of magic powder and earth-bound grass juice, and finally draw and activate the freezing magic circle on the grass blanket. A magical beanbag chair that exudes a slight chill is now complete.
I don't know how the waterbed turned into a beanbag chair, but at least it turned out to be a finished product.
Because Shu Xin was still figuring out how much water element to condense to be appropriate, she gave the two round, magical beanbag chairs, one large and one small, to Nonoli and Pengpengan, asking them to help record whether these two magical devices would produce any additional magical changes during use.
Afterwards, Shu Xin continued to research the magic version of the waterbed she wanted.
Then she encountered a big problem—the concentration of water was really hard to control!
If the water element concentration is too high, it will directly clump into a ball shape, which is very difficult to shape. The finished product will only be an oversized round beanbag chair, instead of the flat mattress that Shuxin wanted.
However, if the water element concentration is too low, it will quickly dissipate into the air. Even if it can be successfully shaped, the soft and full cool waterbed will collapse and dry up in just half a day, leaving only a pitiful layer of skin.
Having finally found a suitable concentration and with the waterbed fully formed, only one last step remained: drawing an ice magic circle on the straw cover. The magical water-cooled bed would then be complete. But then Shu Xin encountered an even bigger problem—
The magic circle was so powerful that it froze a thick layer of ice on the mattress in the blink of an eye!
