Xi Xi carefully inspected the diving performance of her RV.
After perfectly integrating the performance of a submarine, the underwater driving hardware of the RV has been refined and further optimized.
In addition to significantly improved oxygen supply equipment, the RV has greatly reduced underwater drag while maintaining its appearance, incorporating the advantages of the submarine's streamlined design.
Furthermore, the vehicle is equipped with a submarine-specific water-powered system, which to some extent reduces Chu Zhiqin's burden of replenishing power.
When the three-story courtyard rises, the softened glass resembles a long corridor tunnel in an aquarium, allowing a clear view of the underwater scenery. You can even easily pull the treasure chests attracted by the Treasure Magnet without getting wet.
In addition, the underground hatch has been significantly improved, with a temporary washing area set up and the separation of wet and dry areas further enhanced.
The small submarine was placed in the water-filled compartment, while the previous motorcycles were placed in the dry parking garage, so they did not interfere with each other.
After the RV is upgraded, the number of floors remains at four, but the space on each floor has been further expanded.
This surprised and troubled Chu Zhiqin, because the extra storage room on the first floor hadn't been completely filled during the last upgrade. Now, several more rooms had appeared on the second floor.
Xi's parents began to think about how to make good use of these spaces.
First, Chu Zhiqin thought of converting the smaller room into a planting room.
This time, the Liu sisters won many more miniature planting pots in the game, and with the seeds that Cheng's father brought, they can grow more different kinds of fruits and vegetables in the RV, which can beautify the environment, increase oxygen levels, and allow them to enjoy fresh ingredients.
Then, Xi Zhongcang turned his gaze to the larger room. This room was spacious enough to be converted into a gym.
The treadmill that Xi Xi got from the treasure chest before was too big and was left in the chest to collect dust. Now it finally has a place to be put.
As for the room, which is neither too big nor too small, the couple has yet to decide whether to convert it into a chess and card room or a family karaoke room.
Life seemed to have a new impetus. Xi's mother, who had previously found things troublesome, became interested in the trading hall again and thought about how to "decorate" it every day.
But Xi Xi didn't get involved in this matter, solely because of that sea cowhide.
When she brought back the complete manatee hide that day, Chu Zhiqin and Cheng's mother couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Xi Xi then learned that manatee hide is an extremely rare textile material, a necessity for making diving suits, and that Cheng's father had tried various connections but had not been able to obtain a single piece!
Xi Xi then gave Cui Quan's cookbook to Liu Enxi.
These past few days, after Liu Enxi gradually recovered, she remained silent and absent-minded, seemingly still unable to recover from her heartbreak. It wasn't until she began studying this book and buried herself in the kitchen that everyone felt somewhat at ease.
Liu Enxi is very proactive. Following the recipe, she quickly developed a dish called "Jellyfish Swim Bladder Salad" using jellyfish and fish maw as cooking ingredients.
This functional food is so useful that it can even completely replace the effects of a diving amulet.
In this way, all that is needed is to hunt a few more manatees, equip each person with a manatee suit, and supplement with rare swim bladders mixed with jellyfish, and the days of freely swimming in the sea will be just around the corner!
At that time, the diving talisman and the whale-transforming talisman can be completely retired, and they will be fearless even if shielding talismans are used!
Therefore, the pressure fell on Xi Xi again.
Because manatees are so rare, they never encountered a single one again after that day.
Xi Xi thought to herself: If I can't meet her, I'll just draw her. Surely she can draw a manatee hide?
However, drawing a piece of cloth is relatively easy, but to represent the actual material is incredibly difficult!
Finally, Xi Xi was defeated by the mountain of fabrics, the dazzling array of different kinds...
She decided to stop torturing herself and planned to just draw a manatee and slaughter it on the spot.
[System message: Identifying, please do not modify]
[...]
[System Notification: Congratulations, host, you have obtained 1 Manatee Golem]
Huh? What's this?
Xi Xi's gaze slowly fell on the manatee sculpture in her hand.
This sculpture is small and exquisite, like a figurine, but its exquisite detail is astonishing, vividly displaying the ferocious and terrifying appearance of the mutated manatee.
The "mutated manatee" floated slightly in the air, seemingly unaffected by gravity, quietly hovering above Xi Xi's palm.
[Item Hint: An extremely rare mimicry puppet. After signing a contract, it will act according to its master's will until death (the puppet will not drop any items upon death).]
Wow! There's such a good thing!
It didn't matter if she didn't drop anything upon death. Xi Xi immediately put the boasting behind her back and, without saying a word, signed a puppet contract with the "mutant manatee" according to the system prompt.
A dazzling red light flashed, and the manatee's originally clear eyes were instantly filled with bloodshot veins.
The next moment, as if it had broken free from some kind of restraint, it suddenly leaped out of Xi Xi's palm and then ran forward at an astonishing speed.
As the manatee ran, its body gradually became transparent, eventually passing through the RV window in spirit form, and finally swimming into the sea, transforming into a gigantic creature.
This sudden turn of events caught all the RVs in front, behind, and to the sides off guard, causing them to slam on their brakes in panic.
Alarms blared across the squad interface, and Li Jinshao's submarine immediately went into attack mode, its cannons aimed at the direction where the manatee had disappeared.
Xi Xi hadn't expected the "contract signing" to be in this form; the puppet even looked no different from an ordinary mutated manatee. She quickly used the group chat to reassure everyone.
To prove that this "mutant manatee" was not the same as that "mutant manatee," she blurted out, "Let's dance!"
Then, a strange scene appeared on the seabed—
That terrifyingly large mutated manatee actually started dancing ballet on the seabed in front of us!
It tiptoed on one foot and twirled gracefully. Although its movements were somewhat clumsy, they were full of a strange beauty.
"..." Everyone fell silent.
Even the sleepy Aura perked up. Liu Yunyan had returned the synesthetic chain ring to Aura at some point, and Xi Xi could even hear the "Holy crap" surging in Aura's mind.
Just as everyone was asking Xi Xi what it was, a brilliant idea suddenly flashed into her mind.
She quickly inquired about the bundle of "Dongli Special Tough Hemp Rope" that she had obtained when opening the treasure chest yesterday.
A short while later, an even stranger scene appeared in the deep sea area—
A gigantic, ferocious-looking mutated manatee was running wildly. Thick ropes bound its body, the other ends of which were connected to three RVs and a submarine.
Like a tireless ox pulling a cargo, it used its immense strength to drag four vehicles behind it, speeding across the seabed and weaving through the coral reefs.
The coral reefs shattered under its impact, and the manatee knocked over one mutated fish after another that blocked its path, struggling all the way.
