Fang Yuan hid in the space, watching the servants and guards outside searching for the thieves inside and outside the castle.
She started a fire and cooked with great interest in front of the fireplace in the dining room, while listening to the timely updates from the system.
She now has food and firewood, and pots and pans, so she can't let herself suffer.
She even took the bowls and basins directly from the exquisite porcelain in the storeroom.
Since there were no new pots, we picked out the newest one from the ones that had been taken away earlier and used it as a makeshift pot.
However, she washed them several times.
Only then did they slowly begin to cook food over a fire on the fireplace.
"Mmm~ It smells so good. Finally, I can have a good meal."
Smelling the delicious aroma wafting from the pot, Fang Yuan felt incredibly hungry.
That's true, she only ate a small can of fish porridge in the morning, and it's almost afternoon now.
She was very hungry after working all morning.
The fireplace isn't as convenient as a stove; you have to put the pot on it.
It's just barely enough.
After eating, Fang Yuan observed these people for a while, and then went to sleep.
After all, she's had a tough time these past two days, and she's still growing, so she needs to rest more.
When I woke up, it was already dark outside; I guessed it was around five or six o'clock.
The search party is still wandering around, and has already spread to various hilltops on the island.
"Seriously? It's been three or four hours, why are these people still searching?"
It was getting dark, and these people were really persistent!
【Host, you've emptied their house of everything they have, leaving them with nothing to eat or drink. How could they not come looking for you?】
"I have no problem with them looking for me, but the problem is that these guys are searching me wave after wave, making it difficult for me to leave."
Fang Yuan replied somewhat displeased.
She should have left immediately instead of watching the play when she first came out.
[The host may leave at night.]
If I'm afraid of being recognized during the day, then I'll just go at night, since it'll be dark soon anyway.
"OK!"
To avoid arousing suspicion, she decided to stay there a little longer.
To pass the time, she simply found some pieces of cloth and started cutting clothes.
It got dark quickly, and Fang Yuan took advantage of the fact that no one was around.
It appeared in the forest in a flash, and then teleported several times to the stone cave it had been in before.
"Finally we're out. But it seems like teleporting too much isn't a good thing!"
Fang Yuan rubbed his temples and muttered to the system.
The teleportation function is indeed very useful, but teleporting too often consumes a lot of her mental energy.
She teleported away four times in the morning, but didn't feel much of a sensation; she just wanted to sleep.
It was only after this series of teleportations that she realized how powerfully this thing drained her mental energy.
It's making her feel a little dizzy now.
The system comforted him, saying, "Host, practice more, and your mental strength will improve in the future."
"Why does what you said sound so familiar?"
She remembered that when she was lazy and wanted the space to automatically grow crops, the system said the same thing.
【········】
"Never mind, I'm already inside the cave now, I'll walk this time."
After resting for a while, Fang Yuan picked up the luminous pearl again and returned to the cliff edge through the stone cave.
Looking down at the seawater, which was ten meters deep, she didn't dare use teleportation again and instead jumped directly into the sea.
With a thud, Fang Yuan was almost knocked unconscious.
"Wow, this sea doesn't seem so easy to jump into."
Fang Yuan patted his head in the water.
Next time, let's use teleportation instead; this diving seems too dangerous.
After recovering, she initially wanted to swim further out, but discovered that the sea in this area was surprisingly deep.
She tried diving down for a while, and to her surprise, she actually went down to a depth of about 40 or 50 meters.
Only then could I vaguely see the seabed.
She explored the surrounding area and discovered that it was actually a cliff-like trench fissure.
No wonder there are usually no boats coming here; it's because this place is too deep, and shallow nets can't catch any fish at all.
However, this location does allow her to release the Crystal Castle.
"Come out!"
Fang Yuan dived to the bottom and released his crystal castle.
A small ball flew out of her mind and visibly grew larger, eventually transforming into a giant castle.
The castle was covered by a transparent light shield.
The light shield glowed faintly, and the crystal castle also emitted a soft light.
There are also glowing luminous pearls on the top of the castle and above the fountain.
After the entire castle fell, it made the originally dark trench shimmer with light.
"Wow, it really looks like an underwater palace, more suitable for mermaids to live in."
This area is isolated from the seawater, making it suitable for people to live in.
"That's right, this will be my mobile castle from now on!" Fang Yuan walked around the castle and admired it carefully.
It looks absolutely gorgeous, like a dreamy underwater castle!
Fang Yuan didn't notice that as she circled the castle, fish of all sizes swam towards her.
"Wow, why are these fish circling around me? Has my underwater breathing been upgraded?"
Looking at the group of fish circling around her, Fang Yuan felt like she had become a hot commodity.
[Host, have you forgotten your new ability?]
"Animal affinity?" Fang Yuan looked at the group of people.
Yes, she has an affinity for animals now, and fish are animals too!
However, her senses traveled even further in the water than on land.
She closed her eyes and could feel fish trying to swim over from the sea thousands of meters away.
She quickly issued a refusal.
That stopped the fish from coming over.
However, it was quite beautiful to see the fish circling her castle, so she didn't stop them.
She turned around and went straight into the castle, leaving the fish outside to circle around it.
Am I playing the role of the Little Mermaid for a cameo?
Fang Yuan looked at everything in front of him with delight, feeling as if he had stumbled into a fairy tale world.
Thump!
Two more sounds of splashing into the sea came from the cliff above.
Two figures slowly descended towards the seabed.
System notification
[Host, two people have fallen into the water.]
"So what if we fall? We're at the bottom of the sea. Do you think those people can come down?"
Fang Yuan looked at the fish circling the castle and didn't seem to care much!
They sank down, stones strapped to their bodies; one of them was the paralyzed young city lord.
