Cui Huangxing glanced at Lu Yao and then at the guard seals that were lined up obediently: "You like these little guys very much."
Lu Yao nodded without hesitation: "I have a furry shop. If you allow, I would like to hire them to work in the shop."
Cui Huangxing waved, and the guard captain wearing a pearl necklace moved forward. The
Deep Sea Goddess stretched out her finger and tapped the seal guard captain's forehead.
The seal captain cried out in a piteous voice, his grape-like eyes were wet, and his face was full of reluctance.
Cui Huangxing was determined, and the seal guard team left the bedroom with grievance, leaving Lu Yao behind.
Half an hour later, Lu Yao came out of the Deep Sea Goddess' bedroom.
The guard seals were in the main hall, and when they found Lu Yao coming out, they all looked at him eagerly. Lu Yao
lowered his head slightly, hiding his emotions, and said in a deep voice: "The goddess is asleep."
"Woo-woo-"
"Woo-woo-woo--"
The seals cried, their big eyes filled with tears, and they made sad cries.
The drop seal is the messenger of the deep sea goddess. It is snow-white, looks cute, and understands human language. The only shortcoming is that it is not very good at fighting.
The deep sea goddess is strong enough. Initially, the messenger was selected just for companionship, without considering the fighting ability.
Unlike what people imagine, gods are not omnipotent.
In fact, the stronger the power of the gods, the stricter the rules that restrict the power.
As the mother of all things in the world, the deep sea goddess has the power to give birth to life.
And the rule that binds her is "no killing."
About twenty years ago, the Deep Sea Goddess accidentally violated the rules and was subsequently attacked. Her power continued to decline, and then the Godslayer appeared.
According to rumors, the Godslayer was fierce and brutal. He would not only kill gods, but also destroy their divinity.
The impact of the death of gods on the world is immeasurable, and the death of the Mother Goddess with many believers may directly destroy the world.
The seal guards were worried that the Mother Goddess with declining power would be found by the Godslayer, so after begging her, they hid her in the deepest part of the deep sea.
However, only twenty years later, the goddess's hiding place was found by a human.
The seal guards felt very frustrated. They could not protect the goddess alone.
The Deep Sea Goddess may have realized this, and after a long chat with Lu Yao, she decided to fall asleep, and entrusted the messenger and the divine domain to her.
Lu Yao had a blank expression: "After you fall asleep, what will happen to the Garbage Sea and those who drowned in the sea?"
Cui Huangxing took out her left eye and turned it into a black pearl. She also took out a handful of pink pearls, made them into a bracelet, and put a purple conch in the middle of the pearls, and handed it to Lu Yao, "When I fall asleep, I allow you to perform the duties of God on my behalf."
Lu Yao: "...Are all gods so careless?"
Cui Huangxing: "In an emergency, this is a necessary compromise for the sake of my people and the world."
Lu Yao: "...You sound quite aggrieved. The God Slayer has come to me, and I am the substitute for the God of God."
Cui Huangxing: "He won't kill you." Lu Yao
: "Why?"
Cui Huangxing didn't intend to say more, turned over and waved: "You should go back." Lu Yao
sat on the steps in the middle of the main hall, picked up the closest water drop seal, buried her face in the furry chest of Bao Bao, sorted out her thoughts, and inadvertently cast telepathy.
She was in a trance, and a clear boy's voice rang in her mind: "Become...become a servant of humans...strike..."
Lu Yao looked up, and the little seal looked like she had lost hope in life.
She put down the one in her hand and picked up the smaller and rounder one next to it.
"Mother doesn't want us anymore..."
"We want to go to humans' homes... to work..."
"Leopard doesn't want to work..."
The water drop seals lay on the ground, huddled together, and collectively fell into self-isolation.
Lu Yao was interrupted and didn't have the energy to think carefully. She picked up some of the pearls piled up in the ditch and the palace, clapped her hands and said, "Children, cheer up, we are going to the furry shop."
The little seals raised their heads to look at her, slowly climbed up, and lined up in an orderly manner.
Although they were worried and afraid, they would still listen to Lu Yao.
Understanding human nature is their advantage, but sometimes it is also a constraint. There are
quite a few water drop seals. Lu Yao discussed with the captain of the guard and left half of them to stay in the temple, and changed their jobs every half a month.
The way here was quite different from the way back. A purple conch fell from the bracelet that the goddess gave to Lu Yao. The conch not only made sounds, but also spit out a bubble-like film.
The bubble film wrapped Lu Yao inside, and the little seals formed a circle to hold up the bubble and sent her back to the trench.
Back to the open space of the garbage mountain, the bubble naturally broke, Lu Yao's diving suit was intact, and the garbage picking machine fell to the side.
She carried the machine again, turned around and waved to the water drop seal, "Let's go, I'll take you to the whale room."
On the way back, she was thinking, there are cats in the octopus room, dogs in the coral room, birds in the jellyfish room, the sea urchin room is reserved for rabbits, and the remaining whale room is for the water drop seal.
Passing by the jellyfish room and the sea urchin room on the way, the customers who were relaxing saw a string of seals following the owner, and their eyes couldn't move.
"So many seals!!!"
"The round ones are so cute!"
"Isn't this the new furry one in the store?"
"Even seals can be rubbed, this is too amazing!"
"Is this the direction to the whale room?"
...
The customers followed all the way to the whale room.
Lu Yao pushed the door open and came in, and a string of baby seals followed him ashore.
The fur of the water drop seal is waterproof, and it looks like a long-haired ball in the sea. When it comes ashore and shakes its head, it immediately turns into a soft furry one.
Harold squeezed out from the customers with shining eyes, passed by the round furry things on the ground, walked behind Lu Yao, and took the machine from her hand, "Where did you go?"
Lu Yao took off her mask, brushed her hair, and said casually, "I was in the garbage mountain and met this group of blob seals. They will all be employees in the future."
Harold squatted down and picked up one, weighed it, and was a little surprised, "The little fat guy is quite heavy."
"The little fat guy" trembled all over, suddenly struggled violently, and fell to the ground with a "plop", rolling to the corner with a limp, like a fat eggplant trapped in self-isolation.
Harold: "..."
Lu Yao held back his laughter: "The little fat guy is angry, go and comfort him."
Harold: "..."
A customer next to him saw this scene and couldn't help asking: "Can they understand?"
Lu Yao: "All things have spirits."
He didn't say he understood, nor did he say he didn't understand.
The little animals in the furry shop are smarter and more human than ordinary animals, but people in this world rarely come into contact with pets and don't understand this.
The customer was also curious, and asked casually, and was satisfied with this answer.
Adorable seals were lying defenselessly all over the room. The guests didn't have much energy to talk to the owner. Their eyes fell on them and they couldn't tear them off.
There is actually a zoo in Night Light City. The tickets are expensive and the visit is limited. You can't even think about "petting seals".
Seals are furry creatures that are more difficult to touch than Maru Maru dogs and Wakaba rabbits. In addition, the drop seal is a special species. The appearance of adults is almost the same as that of pups, which makes them even more lovable.
At this point, the unpopular whale room finally became lively.
During the lunch break, Jiuhua heard that a furry seal had come to the whale room. She didn't eat lunch and ran to suck the baby seal.
It was not yet time to get off work. Because she was too relaxed, she turned into a starfish and left the garbage sea. Lu
Yao looked at the bubbles flying out of the furry shop with a helpless look on his face.
Half an hour later, Jiuhua appeared again.
"Shopkeeper, I contacted a seller of Wakaba rabbits and ordered twenty rabbits, and agreed to deliver them in five days." Jiuhua told Lu Yao the news as soon as she arrived.
It takes several days for the seller to come from Two Star City by boat, otherwise it could be earlier.
Lu Yao thought that Jiuhua was too efficient. The rabbits were successfully introduced, and the system task was completed.
It would take a few days here, and she could just take some time to do the side quest.
After returning from the palace of the goddess of the deep sea, she was looking forward to completing the ultimate mission and continuing to the next world.
The side quest requires cleaning up the garbage in the garbage sea and purifying the ocean currents.
Lu Yao planned to do it in two steps. First, she would clean up all the garbage in this sea area, and then use the crystal core energy and the pearls containing the power of the deep sea goddess to purify the water.
However, there was too much garbage, and it was difficult for her to clean up a sea area in a short time by herself.
Lu Yao thought of several plans. There were ways to deal with the garbage, but it was a pity that they could not be exchanged for points.
She finally considered using the system of systems.
Lu Yao tapped the system: "Can the garbage processing machine be exchanged for points?"
As the number of machines increases, Harold and the water drop seal can help pick up the garbage, and the efficiency will be greatly improved.
The system didn’t seem to notice that it had been disconnected from the shop owner for a while, and ruthlessly rejected the idea: [There is only one machine.]
Lu Yao proposed a second backup plan: "Can the number of machines be increased by using replication magic?"
System: [The replica only has the function of collecting garbage, and cannot convert garbage into points. If the shop owner just wants to get rid of the garbage in the sea, it can be operated.]
Lu Yao touched his chin and silently rejected this idea: "It’s a pity that it can’t be exchanged for points."
The system noticed that there were more things in the portable warehouse that were not originally there. After a pause, it said: [Shop owner, there are too many pearls in the warehouse, and the grids are full.]
Speaking of this, Lu Yao was helpless.
After the portable warehouse was upgraded, there were a total of forty grids, and each grid could hold 2,500 items.
The remaining thirty-odd spaces were all filled with pearls. There were still some left in the deep sea trench, and there was no way to bring them all back.
Lu Yao: "Well, I'll try to deal with the garbage first, and then consider this problem later."
System: [... Yeah. ]
The system was unhappy. She didn't take the initiative to confess, and it didn't feel comfortable asking.
If the owner knew that it couldn't fully grasp her whereabouts, its attitude would definitely be more arrogant than it is now.
Lu Yao was busy for two days and did dozens of tests, big and small.
The garbage processing machine is indeed impossible to replicate. The replicas are not fully functional and have extremely low efficiency.
Then she took the machine to the snack bar and asked Meng Qin to see if he could remove the parts and disassemble the structure.
After Meng Qin looked at it, he said that the structure of this machine was very special and it was a machine that could not be disassembled.
Finally, Lu Yao decided to try the dumbest method. She took the machine late at night and asked Harold to accompany her to the garbage mountain.
At that time, the autistic fish fell asleep, and the water drop seal pulled up a concealment barrier outside the garbage mountain.
Harold changed back to the dragon form and cast a magnification magic on the machine.
The small machine instantly enlarged to dozens of times its original size, and Harold carried it on his back.
Lu Yao lay on the head of the little black dragon and directed him to clean up.
The dragon carried a machine like a small box on its back. The sturdy mechanical claws could grab a huge gap on the hill with one claw, and the speed of picking up garbage was significantly accelerated.
[Abandoned TVs, broken refrigerators, truck wreckage... a total of 117 kilograms, popularity value +117000. 】
【Cans, glass bottles, plastics... a total of 63 kilograms, popularity +63,000. 】
【Shipwreckage, 359 kilograms, popularity +359,000. 】
...
The system watched Lu Yao struggle for several days with a cold eye. It was originally proud of finally finding the store owner, but now it was almost stunned: [Is this possible? ]
Lu Yao was dissatisfied: "What do you mean by 'this is possible'? It's not easy, okay? Without Harold and Leopard, this method will not work."
System: [...]
The next morning, the reclusive fish woke up and inexplicably felt that his vision was wider than usual, and the surroundings were much brighter. He turned his head and saw that his eyes were bulging. He couldn't believe it.
"Where is the garbage mountain?"
"It was flattened overnight?"
The place where autistic fish rest at night is like the fixed place where soldiers spawn on the game map. Most autistic fish wake up from here and then realize that they have turned into fish.
The garbage mountain near here is like a bright landmark, carrying a certain indescribable meaning.
Humans who have turned into fish are like garbage sunk to the bottom of the sea, rotting and smelling.
But on this morning, the garbage was cleared, leaving a large area of dark gray seabed.
The sun shines down from the sea, reflecting deep and shallow spots of light, drifting with the ocean currents, like clouds floating on the water.
Groups of jellyfish swim among them, like blooming flowers.
The vision is broad, and the mood unconsciously becomes open and relaxed.
Among the self-enclosed fish, several "nail households" stared blankly at the deep sea, and gradually formed a bubble film around their bodies, slowly flying out of the garbage sea.
Some self-enclosed fish swam to the open space and found Lu Yao and his group standing on the edge of the deep sea trench.
"It's the owner, and the bad-tempered clerk!"
"Baobao is here too, standing in a row, so well-behaved!"
"The owner often picks up garbage here, didn't she clean up all the garbage?"
Some people wanted to refute, but remembered that the furry shop was once expanded into an amusement park overnight, and they couldn't find any arguments to refute.
Someone else whispered, "I'm just guessing. Is there a possibility that the store owner is actually Emerald Star?"
"Ah, this is... unlikely, right?"
"Then how do you explain the current situation?"
"The store owner is indeed amazing, but she looks a bit like the goddess in the statue..."
The autistic fish began to discuss fiercely whether the store owner is the goddess of the deep sea. Both sides have strong arguments, and no one can convince the other.
At this time, an anemone fish next to him said slowly, "What is the store owner looking at? He keeps looking down the trench."
The autistic fish were still arguing, but they couldn't help but glance over, and became curious. They gradually turned around and swam with the anemone fish.
They stopped at the edge of the trench, and the noisy quarrel suddenly disappeared.
There is a galaxy in the trench, with golden spots gathered together, flickering and floating, like fireflies by the river on a summer night, or like tiny stars that will disappear before dawn.
The reclusive fish looked at those flickering stars, and a warm current suddenly flowed into their dry hearts, and their irritable mood gradually calmed down.
Lu Yao watched quietly, with a slight curve at the corner of his lips.
The power of the gods is indeed extraordinary.
Harold looked at it for a while, then grabbed Lu Yao tightly with his right hand and pulled her back, "Don't look at it anymore."
"Huh?" Lu Yao was puzzled.
Harold said impatiently, "I'm exhausted after working all night. Go back to sleep. Don't forget what you promised me."
This little job was not as hard as his usual practice of fighting with Si Jin, but Lu Yao's gaze into the abyss made him a little uneasy.
Harold couldn't tell what it felt like, but for a moment he felt that Lu Yao was very far away from him.
"Okay, let's go back." Lu Yao pulled Harold up with one hand and greeted the water drop seals, "Babies, you've worked hard, go back to the store and rest."
Ji Feiming had already prepared fresh fish according to the owner's instructions. The water drop seals ate when they returned to the whale room, and rolled on the ground to rest after breakfast.
Marine creatures do not need stable sleep like humans, but when there is no danger, they know how to lie down safely and enjoy the peace and tranquility of life. When
guests come to the whale room, they see the leopards lying down, more leisurely than the 90-year-old grandfather. It is not only funny, but also fun.
Not wanting to disturb their good mood, the guests also find an open space to lie down next to the leopards, with the blue sea above their heads and the chubby little seals beside them.
If you get too close, it will poke you with its soft flippers and make a "huhuhu" sound. Lu
Yao came out of the shower and secretly drank two bottles of recovery medicine in the bathroom.
After the garbage mountain is dealt with, the polluted ocean currents must be purified. She will go to the blind box store later.
Ji Feiming was waiting outside the door. When he saw her come out, he glanced at the pearl bracelet on her wrist and walked up to her: "Shopkeeper."
"What's up?" Lu Yao knew his own staff a little bit.
Ji Feiming: "Maorongrong is indeed very short of staff. At least one staff member must be guaranteed to look after each area. We can't recruit suitable staff in this world. Do you want to consider recruiting people from the shopping street?"
Lu Yao raised his head and looked straight into Ji Feiming's eyes.
He wanted to look away uncomfortably, but calmed down again, looking upright and calm, and looked at her.
A few months passed, and the former envoy of God almost forgot his original plan. He received and delivered goods in the shopping street every day, greeted customers, and had a wonderful life.
Yesterday, the owner came back from diving with a pearl bracelet on his wrist.
It was an unusual bracelet, especially the black pearl. Just one look at it made his eyes burn.
Ji Feiming did not sleep all night. He initially thought that Lu Yao was not the person he was looking for, but now he felt more and more that it was hard to predict the future, and he had already boarded the ship of the store owner. Lu Yao retracted his
gaze and said casually: "We are hiring here, I just want to add one more person in the kitchen. Do you have a suitable candidate to recommend?"
With the water drop seal, she was not in a hurry to recruit people. It's
just that she was busy with tasks in the past two days and had no time to make arrangements.
However, Ji Feiming's job is a deliveryman, and he has to go back and forth between several stores, and the workload is not small. When she starts preparing for the next store, she may need his help. The shortage of manpower is even greater. The kitchen of the Maorongrong store really needs to recruit a capable and stable master chef.
Ji Feiming clenched his fist lightly: "Well, I will notify the clan to select a suitable person and send him over. You can interview him and keep the one you like."
Lu Yao was a little surprised: "It's too troublesome, or I'll just look for it online." It's
too exaggerated to send someone from home.
Lu Yao felt that her clerk seemed to have thought of something incredible.
Although the risk of the Internet is a little greater, she can arrange an interview outside, and after careful investigation, she can always find a suitable person.
Ji Feiming said excitedly, "It's not a problem at all. The shop owner also knows my family's background. The situation in the shopping street is particularly special. They are definitely more reliable and secure than randomly found people."
Ji Feiming has changed a lot.
Compared with the eccentric uncle who followed Zhuang Liang to the shopping street at the beginning, he now looks like a simple grandfather guarding the gate of the community, and also like an elder who is desperately looking for connections to find a good job for his young family.
However, Lu Yao felt that his young family might not appreciate it, and sighed slightly, "My requirements for the clerk are very simple, agree to sign the highest level of confidentiality agreement, have good cooking skills, clear articulation and patience."
Ji Feiming nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I will contact them immediately."
In the blind box store, the clerk is stocking the goods and tidying up the shelves.
Lu Yao pushed the door open and came in. Ling Lan noticed him, ran over and hugged her, "Sister!"
Wei Xuan and Nie Yu heard it and turned to look at him, "Shopkeeper."
The tiger cub jumped down from the highest point of the glass shelf. It had grown a little, but it still looked like a tiger, but it had never been able to transform into a human form.
"Awoo!"
Lu Yao reached out his hand, and the tiger cub lowered its head and rubbed against him, and its voice softened: "Awoo~"
Ling Lan fell on Lu Yao's waist, "Sister, you haven't been to the store for a long time, and the customers are urging us to get new products."
The impermanent world has escaped from impermanence, but this world has been in a dead end for twenty years and it will take a long time to rebuild.
With the blind box store as the center, people began to move into the abandoned houses around the mall, and the aroma of food began to float on the streets in the early morning and dusk.
People have cleared land in the city, trying to grow food, vegetables, and mutant plants, building reservoirs and repairing roads in small areas.
In this new world that starts from scratch, there is a magical blind box store that has become the first seasoning for people's hard life.
"Write down what new products the customers want and give the notes to Xiao Ji later. I will take a look." Lu Yao said, "How is the seafood series selling recently?"
The seafood in Maorongrong's shop has been overstocked, and Lu Yao will deliver a batch of the freshest to the snack bar and blind box store every day.
Ling Lan nodded continuously: "The seafood blind box is fresh and can't be bought outside. Many customers like to carry the box."
Luo Hui'an came out of the laboratory and saw Lu Yao, his eyes lit up, "Shopkeeper!"
The little fat man has finished intensive treatment and is still taking medication. He needs a physical examination every three months.
Lu Yao looked him up and down with some joy in his eyes, "Have you lost weight?"
The little fat man's eyes were energetic when he was fat. Now that there is less flesh on his face, his eyes are brighter and more energetic, and the white coat he wears is three points emptier.
Luo Hui'an pursed his lips, a little shy, "I lost a little weight. Doctor Bai said that when the dosage of medicine is reduced next year, I will gradually lose weight to a normal body shape."
Lu Yao was relieved.
Who would have thought that the little fat boy was still counting the days a few months ago, and now he is almost the same as an ordinary person, and is also a researcher with great prospects.
"By the way, the solvent you want is made. Sister Zhong and I have tried many times and have adjusted the ratio to the best." Luo Huian said.
In the laboratory, Zhong Ruying and Xue Ge were doing experiments. When they saw Lu Yao coming in, they immediately stopped their work and said, "Shopkeeper."
The base has opened up a new plantation. After Jiang Lao recovered a little, he went back to the base to take care of the vegetable garden. Now if there is anything, let Jiang Han pass on a message.
The main researchers of the blind box store are Luo Huian, Zhong Ruying, Xue Ge and Ling Lan. Sometimes the tiger cub will also help.
Lu Yao first looked at the purification solvent. The effect is really good and the efficiency is also pulled to the limit.
Luo Hui'an said that this solvent can not only evolve seawater, but also purify fresh water to the level of drinking water. This is the latest version of the purification solvent.
Lu Yao got the purification solvent, walked out of the blind box store, and crossed the dilapidated road under the scorching sun. Cicadas were chirping and the hot wind brought bursts of osmanthus fragrance.
Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon.
Lu Yao asked the clerk of the snack bar to make a batch of special water guns, about fifty, which can be used for forty-eight hours after filling with "ammunition".
She crushed the pearls that contain the power of the deep-sea goddess into powder, put them into the water gun together with the purification solution, and held a small event in the furry shop.
The clerk and the customer had a water gun battle in the original garbage mountain, now a jellyfish field.
The Furry Shop dispatched the owner, the shop assistants Harold and Jiuhua, and the seal guards, a total of 25 members, and the guests drew lots to select the 25 people.
The solution in the water gun is light gold in color and will stay on the body for ten minutes, so it is easy to see.
The two sides fight with water guns, and the one who is splashed will leave.
The person who remains on the field at the end is the winner.
The only winner will receive a special prize provided by the Furry Shop - Tears of God, and each member of the winning team will receive a medal exclusive to the Furry Shop.
Tears of God are the tears of the goddess of the deep sea.
Lu Yao picked one and made it into a necklace as a prize.
As soon as the Tears of God were taken out, everyone except Lu Yao and Harold could not take their eyes away.
The pearl that contains the power of the Mother Goddess has an extraordinary attraction to the people of this world and the current messenger of God.
The competition itself is very interesting, and with the precious prizes, both sides are instantly full of fighting spirit.
Lu Yao actually has no interest in the competition. Harold acted coquettishly and said in a malicious voice that if she didn't participate, he would turn into a dragon and kill these poor autistic fish in a minute.
She was speechless for five minutes and raised her hand to join the competition.
The water gun battle began, and the store manager's team had a great advantage, mainly because there were two people in it.
The water drop seal is flexible in the sea, and its flippers can hold the water gun tightly.
Jiuhua turned into a starfish and stuck firmly to a seal companion, holding the water gun tightly with its two tentacles, and the performance was impressive.
The guest group includes octopuses, jellyfish, seahorses and other flexible tentacles and tails that move independently. Some guests are small fish, conchs, mantis shrimps and other benthic creatures, and there are also a few small and medium-sized mammals. They will choose to cooperate and fight against opponents together.
A water gun game was played with the intensity of a simulated battlefield. Lu Yao was hit while paddling in the water, and Harold followed him out.
After the humans left, the guests entered the main field.
Some autistic fish had too much fun. During the game, they were suddenly caught by bubbles and flew directly out of the garbage sea.
The fallen water guns were picked up by their companions and continued to fight.
The battlefield began to expand to the entire garbage sea. The combatants changed several times in the middle of the game and played until late at night.
The next morning, Jiuhua, who had been hiding in the coral reef all night, had a showdown with a guest.
The guest was a giant mimic octopus with flexible arms and legs.
Jiuhua was calm and composed, riding on the blob seal, holding a water gun, full of momentum. Jiuhua
was about to fire the most beautiful bullet, when Lu Yao suddenly appeared and called the little seal back to the store for breakfast.
The blob seal that had been humping Jiuhua all night rushed back to the whale room like an arrow from a bow.
Jiuhua was forced to give up and leave: "..."
The day after the water gun competition ended, Lu Yao, accompanied by the seal guard team, went to the Night Light City to pick up Wakaba Rabbit, and received a mission message on the way back.
[The side mission is completed with an astonishing 100% completion rate! Congratulations to the owner for starting the ultimate mission! 】
