Back on the ship, the air pressure around Wendy dropped several degrees, and anyone could tell he was very unhappy.
"Lord Zhongli." Xiao was very worried because Wendy had pushed the Pursuer, who usually stayed in the cabin, down. The Pursuer cursed and swore several times, calling the Pursuer a useless ant and an idiot, and then sat on the small wooden stool next to the bamboo pole at the bow of the ship, crossed his legs, crossed his arms, and his face clearly showed that he was unhappy.
"It's alright, let him be like this for a while." Zhongli rubbed Xiao's head, and Xiao's little face turned slightly red. Why do they all like to rub his head? But if he contradicts the Emperor, it would be disrespectful to the Emperor.
As an old friend, Zhongli understood Wendy's situation, but he knew that Wendy would recover after being alone for a while.
Sure enough, Wendy was back to full health in no time. She jumped down from the cabin, and the Pursuer silently glared at her before returning to the cabin in a very unpleasant mood.
"Tch, they've dragged down the overall level." After returning to the cabin, the tracer didn't choose to stay in bed any longer. He found himself getting lazier and lazier by following these three people, so he decided to go out and find something to do.
Then, the pursuer unleashed a raging storm, intending to find players from other planets to play with.
As luck would have it, there was a small wooden boat of level two not far away. Although the boat was small, it was more than enough to accommodate two people. Then, the two contestants suddenly felt darkness above their heads. When they looked up, the Tracer's indifferent eyes glanced at them, scaring the two contestants so much that their souls flew out of their bodies.
"A ghost! Aa ...
What a coincidence, the person who said it was "Say it louder."
"Blue Star Dragon Kingdom has killed the player from XX Star XX Kingdom and obtained all of the player's resources: 25 planks and 6 water bottles. Unfortunately, XX Kingdom has been destroyed."
This unexpected disaster changed everyone's mood. Zhongli silently covered his face, Xiao's expression became somewhat speechless, and Wendy chuckled, as if he had already guessed what he was going to do.
The space dwelling power was exhausted. The tracer stepped onto the broken wooden boat, which was gradually sinking. The tracer was not in a good mood; he looked like a ghost.
Actually, he really wronged the person. After all, any normal person would be frightened to see someone flying in the sky.
The pursuer eventually returned to the ship, though not in a good mood.
Xiao used a bamboo pole to propel himself to the next ruin, following Zhongli's senses, while Wendy looked at the mermaid keepsake she had found in the treasure chest.
"Grade C item: The mermaid's keepsake."
Legend has it that in the deepest part of this sea lies a beautiful ancient city. If you can obtain their token, you might be able to unveil the city's mysteries.
"Oh, this looks like a good thing." Wendy felt a little longing for the beautiful ancient city. The beautiful mermaids did not attract his attention, but he wondered if there was wine made by mermaids in the ancient city.
Maybe the wine made by mermaids is delicious?
This underwater breathing pill isn't very useful for Wendy, since he's a wind spirit and doesn't need to worry about breathing. However, it's not very convenient for him to talk to underwater. But it should be fine for Xiao or the old man.
The boat slowly came to a stop. Wendy thought they had arrived at their destination, but Xiao stared at the exquisite wooden boat in front of him, lost in thought.
"Haha, guests from afar, it's fate that we meet. Welcome to my humble shop. Everything is absolutely authentic and clean, no worries whatsoever." Before Xiao could even process what was going on, a merchant-looking man with a mustache appeared on the boat, smiling kindly. Wendy stepped out from behind Xiao and asked, "What do you sell here?"
"Congratulations to the Blue Star Dragon Kingdom contestant for discovering a merchant adrift at sea and obtaining 10,000 national fortune coins."
The announcement suddenly rang out, startling Wendy. The merchant, on the other hand, cheerfully displayed all his goods, and a panel appeared in front of Wendy.
There were ten items in total, including underwater breathing pills, expensive tea, planks, water bottles, food, and even a fragment of a treasure map, but each had a different price tag. For example, the expensive tea cost 200,000 national currency, the underwater breathing pills cost 300,000, the planks cost 100,000 each, and the water bottles and food were priced similarly.
He was also a heartless businessman.
However, Wendy didn't hesitate to buy the underwater breathing pills and the fragments of the treasure map, spending almost all of the national fortune currency, leaving her with only about 10,000.
"Thank you for your patronage." The merchant's smile changed, and then, under the watchful eyes of the two men, he slowly rowed away.
Xiao leaned over to look at what Wendy had bought, but Wendy promptly shoved the newly purchased underwater breathing pills into Xiao's mouth. Caught off guard, Xiao swallowed them whole. "Underwater breathing pills, hehe, want to try them out?" Seeing Xiao's pained expression, Wendy laughed without realizing it.
Xiao rolled his eyes at Wendy and jumped into the sea to try it out.
Breathing is normal, speaking is normal.
Emerging from the sea, Xiao was pulled ashore by Wendy. He nodded, "Yes, it really works." "That's good. This is worth 300,000 national fortune coins." After saying that, Wendy looked at the tattered page of the treasure map in her hand.
The fragment of the treasure map only pointed to a direction, but the scene seemed more like an underwater landscape. Wendy carefully put away the fragment of the treasure map.
The Pursuer suddenly darted to the bow of the ship, Wendy's expression turned serious, Xiao gripped the bamboo pole tightly, and Zhongli calmly cast a shield over the entire ship.
Before them lay a whirlpool, a massive vortex, its immense suction slowly pulling the boat toward its center. Xiao hurriedly used a bamboo pole to try and paddle the boat away, but Wendy jumped straight in.
"Wendy?" The sudden turn of events shocked everyone, and the viewers in the live stream seemed equally surprised that Wendy would pull this stunt.
"What?! Wendy's wife jumped down?!"
"A vortex, they say, once you get caught in it, it's hard to get out?"
"Wait, Wendy's wife seems to have gotten down without any problems, there's no indication that she was caught in the vortex."
"Could it be that there's something down there?"
"I suddenly became curious."
Zhongli crossed his arms, his expression slightly grave, but he pulled back Xiao, who was itching to go down as well, and said, "Don't worry, he'll be fine." "But, Lord Zhongli... Yes, I understand." Xiao wanted to say something more, but seeing Zhongli's calm face, he knew that there was no point in arguing.
(Okay, something went wrong, it's been blocked, what do we do, comrades?)

As a result, no one asked me to hang out all day yesterday, boohoo, I'm so sad.
Requesting book recommendations every day, hehe~)
