Shen Jue frowned, his doubts deepening.
The merman corpse looked like it had been dead for some time, but the dark shadow in the sea just now clearly seemed to be alive.
Qingfeng doesn't lie; everything he says is true.
There's definitely something wrong with this mermaid.
Shen Jue carefully examined the merman corpse.
They discovered some strange scars on the merman's body.
These wounds do not look like those caused by ordinary sharks or marine life.
The wound looks more like it was caused by some kind of sharp weapon.
Shen Jue plans to study the merman corpse and conduct further investigation.
At the same time, she also instructed Qingfeng to remain vigilant to prevent any further changes in the surrounding sea area.
Qingfeng nodded and began his inspection.
Examine the mermaid corpse carefully.
Shen Jue discovered that there were tiny crystal fragments deep inside the wounds of the corpse.
These crystal fragments appear to retain some kind of special energy.
"Qiuqiu, do you know what kind of energy this is?"
Qiuqiu came out of the pet house. After looking the crystal fragments up and down, it said...
"Are these crystal fragments remnants of some kind of magical weapon?"
Remnants of a magical weapon?
Shen Jue was very surprised, as the recent anomalies were all related to magic.
Could it be that there are magicians in this sea world?
(You're not completely stupid; you finally figured that out.)
Shen Jue: ? ? ?
(This world is in the waning days of magic. Your card-making ability far surpasses your magical power.)
Shen Jue: (Can't I have both of these abilities at the same time?)
(Of course not. I didn't expect this day to come so soon. You need to be prepared, as I may not be able to give you any more hints for a long time.)
Shen Jue: (What do you mean by that? Who are you? Why are you telling me this?)
(I can't tell you who I am right now. The time isn't right. When the time comes, you will know all of this, including who I am.)
Shen Jue: (Hey! Don't just disappear without a trace! You still haven't told me what to do next!)
(Alas! I am about to fall into slumber. The only thing I can tell you is to make good use of the Origin Orb in your hands. This thing is the key to changing this world.)
(The game system will be making some big changes soon, so you need to try your best to survive.)
(His plan...is to...)
Shen Jue: (What is His plan? Hey? Are you still there? Can you finish what you're saying before you go to sleep? Don't leave things unsaid!)
After that, no matter how much Shen Jue called out in her heart, the master who had given her hints in the past did not respond this time.
After much thought, the only explanation is that he is asleep.
Shen Jue was filled with doubts, but there was one thing she was very clear about.
She must make full use of the Origin Sphere in order to survive in the upcoming "plan".
Currently, she has only developed one purification ability for the Origin Sphere.
She knew nothing more.
It seems that in the days to come...
She needs to develop the other abilities of the Origin Sphere.
Looking at the merman corpse in front of her, Shen Jue suddenly had a flash of inspiration and opened her side quest panel.
As she opened the panel, she also saw the hidden quest that hadn't been active for a long time, and it finally made some progress.
[Exploring the secrets of the Merfolk - 17%]
Since this magic crystal fragment was brought by the merman's corpse, let's check if there are any other clues on it.
Shen Jue put on an odor-blocking mask and gloves, and took out dissection tools.
She was preparing to dissect the merman.
Let's see if we can find any new clues.
Although she had never performed an autopsy, she had killed many merfolk in the past.
Merfolk are different from humans in terms of their lower body, but their upper body structure is the same as that of humans.
Shen Jue, without any particular skill, cut along the wound and successfully got it stuck.
I tried for ages, but I couldn't get the knife out.
This knife is now useless.
Change the scalpel and continue the dissection.
This merman corpse was indeed very strange; when she dissected it, there wasn't a drop of blood, which made it very convenient.
The scene of blood flowing freely that I had imagined did not happen.
During the dissection of the merman's spine, some strange things were discovered.
There are some small, shiny particles inside this mermaid's body.
Although she didn't know what they were for, Shen Jue still collected all the small particles.
Afterwards, Shen Jue put the small particles and crystal fragments together and found that they reacted when piled together.
