Chapter 357 Harvest

The long-awaited sea breeze blew through the new hand-bone mast; thankfully, there wasn't any whistling or sobbing.

【Abyss】Sailing smoothly on the familiar sea surface.

The effects of the mermaid potion had long since worn off, and everyone had been restored to their human legs, now sprawled out on the spacious deck, basking in the sun.

"My God..."

Nathan alternately bent and stretched his legs, like an old man in a park, patting his knees with his hands.

After being a ray in the sea for three days, he feels like his spine is about to deform!

"It feels so good to be grounded."

He sighed and casually pulled the pearl and seashell teacup closer to himself.

He liked the new teacup very much.

They are exquisite and beautiful, all-natural, and shatterproof, perfectly solving the problem of glassware being a consumable material on ships.

...When I first started using it, it always tasted salty!

Ivan was fast asleep in the cabin.

Meanwhile, Aurora and Sita were sorting through the plants, algae, and insects they had taken from Granny Li in the storage room, then labeling them according to their categories.

I felt we should give them their own space—

For example, a potion room or something?

Store these things away so Klaus won't nag him.

In any case, everything was peaceful.

"Splash!"

The sea broke open beside the ship, revealing a round, reflective bald head. The light of the [Heart of the Sun] cast a dazzling halo around that seawater-covered head.

"Thump."

Sean shook his head and leaped onto the deck.

This guy showed up at the door first thing this morning, yelling at the top of his lungs, "I, Crimson Flame Sean, have returned to keep my promise!"

It's worth mentioning that...

This severely socially anxious patient, who lacked even the courage to show his face due to the absence of body hair, has miraculously straightened his back and become completely transformed.

Not only did they stop trying to hide it,

Instead, she confidently flicks her non-existent hair from time to time... That exaggerated action is just like the old-fashioned GG shampoo (non-physical version)!

Everyone stared at Sean's shiny bald head, unsure of what to say.

But he himself was completely oblivious, instead clinging to the [Abyss]. According to him:

"From this day forward, the Benevolent Society is my home, and Renyi is my boss!"

finished,

She even stroked her long hair down her cheeks to her chest with relish, then casually tossed it behind her head.

Renyi was in a good mood at the moment, so she was being particularly polite.

Seeing that Sean still had the cursed object, the Eye of Medusa, which he had found in the treasure vault of the Deep Blue Kingdom, hanging around his neck, he hesitated for a long time but still reached out to touch it and take a look.

...Vanessa's curse didn't work before, so this should be fine, right?

My fingertips touched that gemstone.

【The Cursed Medusa (Strange Object)】

[Comment: Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess who cared more about her appearance than anything else in the world. Finally, she obtained a gem from a witch, hoping to retain her youth forever. The next day, she saw herself transformed into a hairy monster in the mirror. Amidst the bewilderment and confusion of the world, this beautiful princess resolutely locked herself in a high tower, dying in darkness and solitude. PS: What kills you is never the curse itself.]

...This is a truly sad story.

He glanced at Sean with a complicated expression, wondering whether he should congratulate him or tell the truth.

It doesn't actually make people grow hair all over their bodies, but it directly affects the holder's mind, making them think they have become an ugly monster, and ultimately they collapse under fear and the strange looks of others.

In other words, it's just scaring yourself.

But Sean...

He dreamed of bringing his lost hair home; this curse was a double-edged sword for him, although...

Although it's just the emperor's new hair!

Should we expose the truth?

He shook his head casually, a genuine smile on his face, and patted Sean on the shoulder forcefully:

"Cherish it, it...is perfect for you."

"Boss!"

Sean's eyes were brimming with tears; he was deeply moved.

There's nothing wrong with having multiple henchmen who don't need to be paid, who engage in self-manipulation, are quite capable, and can move freely in the sea.

"Well, since you consider this place your home, there's definitely a place for you here. From now on, you can live there."

A large clam shell that hasn't been processed yet is placed at the front of any nail plate.

Just right,

He stayed on deck the whole time, and could also serve as a 24/7 sentry.

......

The journey to the Deep Blue Kingdom has now come to a successful conclusion.

Rewind to when the abyss rift had just subsided, and the next part was Renyi's favorite.

[Disposable item detected: Mithril Ore]

"Your Majesty, may I have this statue?"

"Your Majesty, may I have this table?"

"Your Majesty, may I have this wall?"

Having just acquired the [Leviathan's Skull] from the treasure vault and upgraded the [Abyss]'s [Mimicry Buffer Layer] to Lv4, Renyi, who was invited to the Deep Blue Palace, was practically cleaning the place up to the floor—

They ignore jewelry and gold, and instead dismantle various stepping stones and load-bearing pillars.

Amidst the flashing blue light,

The basic structure of the royal palace was rapidly reduced.

"Brother..." Arthur wiped imaginary sweat from his forehead, "Do you like gold? I can have someone put two clams in it for you..."

Gold?

He has plenty of gold.

I regard money as dirt.

Renyi continued dismantling the fireplace-shaped object, identified as containing mithril, and storing it in the warehouse.

You have obtained: Mithril*2, Stone*20

"These stones from the abyss rifts just happen to suit my aesthetic. Don't be shy, consider them preparations for the renovation."

Arthur reluctantly gave the order to Fuck Squid.

"Go to the edge of the crevice and pull all those loose stones over to Enyu!"

!

Any eyes light up —

Brother, you're really on the right track!

It was during this chaotic waiting period that Bob, the boss, reached the pinnacle of his fish-eating career.

Arthur agreed to officially approve the secret passage connecting the Silent Passage and the Silver Guard's barracks as a licensed trade route.

And Bob,

They then naturally obtained the rights to expand and operate the waterway.

Just as Ren Yi finished disassembling the stones that the Sea Dragon Guard had brought over one by one, and was grinning from ear to ear at the [Mithril*49...] in the warehouse, a resentful voice came from behind.

"My situation...how do you plan to resolve it?"

I glanced back at random.

Liv held a charred, split bone staff in her left hand and a pipe broken into eight pieces, barely discernible, in her right, staring at Ren Yi with a sinister look.

Isn't that simple?

Explaining and resolving issues is never as quick as shifting blame.

With an effortless smile, he casually grabbed the dazed engineer and pulled him up by the tentacle that held "Bob's Treasure."

"This is the culprit."
