Five hours later, the lost sea fog that obscured the sea surface dissipated.
Hedwig ended his meditation, walked into the control room, and started the magic engine.
The magic yacht follows the magic mechanical ship and sails to the Chanal family's offshore platform.
That offshore platform was the one Li Nuo and Hedwig saw when they entered the Starfall Sea. It is located in the northernmost part of Xingluo Sea, and further north is the outer sea area near the Suman Islands.
Li Nuo woke up from his sleep when the magic yacht was sailing.
After he cleaned himself up, he went to the magic mechanical ship to check on the situation of the three criminals, and chatted a few words with the deputy captain who temporarily took over the command of the patrol, and then returned to the magic yacht.
Hedwig steers the boat in the control room.
Weipa sat on the floating seashell and looked boredly at the sea outside the porthole window.
In order to prevent her existence from being noticed by outsiders, Hedwig deliberately turned on the anti-detection array of the entire ship.
This would consume a lot of deep sea magic power, but in order to protect this young female mermaid, Hedwig still did it.
In line with the principle that when you do good deeds, you must let others know about it, Li Nuo told Weipa the price of Hedwig's anti-detection circle in writing.
Weipa thanked Hedwig profusely, and also gave him a piece of deep river coral stone with an item level of 3.
Hedwig's reaction to the deep river coral stone was much greater than Li Nuo's.
He had seen this thing in the Deep Sea Branch's internal books.
When he got the real thing, he held it in his hand with a loud shout, "The legend turned out to be true."
I don't blame him for making such a fuss. I can only say that the existence of deep river coral stones does go against the common sense of the magic world.
Wizards, like alchemists, follow basic principles of energy transformation.
Both believe that the price of obtaining a certain kind of energy is to pay or consume another kind of energy.
For example, the cost of harvesting magic power from natural phenomena is the consumption of soul energy.
Each wizard has different levels of meditation methods and magic props, so when extracting magic power, the amount of soul energy consumed will also be different.
But look at the deep river coral rocks.
What did it consume when it generated deep sea magic power?
It seems like there is only sea water.
As long as you soak it in sea water and let it absorb the water, it can stably produce deep sea magic.
The extraordinary principle involved is enough to fascinate every deep-sea wizard, and he does not hesitate to spend a lot of time studying it.
After Li Nuo listened to Weipa's talk about the Deep River Shark Tribe last night, he only had one thought in his mind:
I must go to Shenyu Island in the future.
Ah, yes, we are going to Shenyu Island, not to the stronghold of the Deep River Shark Tribe.
Because whether it is a mermaid or a sea monster, they have extraordinary tools in their hands that can stably produce deep sea magic power.
What the Deep River Sharks hold is Deep River Coral Stone, while what the Siren on Shenyu Island holds should be another type of seabed rock.
Considering that the sharks are not bad in character and can be regarded as a good camp overall, Li Nuo does not intend to extend the claws of "magic stealing" to them.
In contrast, Li Nuo didn't have any psychological burden at all when he attacked the Terror Sail Wizard on Shenyu Island. Naturally, you won't feel any guilt when you plunder the undersea rocks that produce deep-sea magic on Shenyu Island.
This plan may take a long time to get underway.
Before that, Li Nuo needed to prepare the tools to instantly kill the Ten Ring Wizard.
Li Nuo settled the account.
The plan to instantly kill a ten-ring wizard requires preparing 10 million gold coins, at least 100 million energy points and 100,000 points of soul strength.
He now has more than 3.7 million gold coins, 18 million energy points and more than 10,000 soul strength, but he is still far from achieving his goal.
In terms of gold coins, you can earn money quickly through bounty missions and wanted orders.
If he has enough energy, Li Nuo plans to make up for it by deconstructing the sea area.
The current gold coins and energy value are enough for Li Nuo to implement part of his plan.
After he plans to return to the Suman Islands, he will start a wave of high-intensity training to consume gold coins and energy points.
The most troublesome thing is the soul strength.
A large part of the gold coins and energy budget was intended to be used by Li Nuo to practice meditation. You can save some resources and use some resources at the same time, achieving a virtuous cycle of saving resources and using them at the same time.
The strength of the soul is different.
Of the budget of 100,000 points of soul strength, at least 90,000 points were used by Li Nuo to convert into elemental energy.
Otherwise, the lightning energy output speed and reserve of the Yuan Reactor would not be able to meet the requirements of killing a ten-ring wizard instantly.
But where can I raise nearly 90,000 points of soul strength...
Li Nuo thought again and again. If he couldn't make a breakthrough in tackling the problem, he could only place his hope on the Dreadsail Wizard.
Time is spent sailing on the magic yacht.
About 13 hours later, the magic yacht and the magic mechanical ship arrived at the offshore platform.
Li Nuo previously told Janela of the Island Affairs Department in a letter that he had caught the criminal. The other party contacted the offshore platform and arranged the transfer of the criminals.
Li Nuo supervised the patrol wizard who sent the criminal to the cell, took away the metal ball from the other party, and then followed Hedwig on the journey to the Suman Islands.
About 5 hours passed.
After nightfall that day, the Magic Yacht obtained the charter from the Deep Sea Branch, drove directly into the core circle, and stopped at the shark habitat arranged by the Deep Sea Branch.
Selina attaches great importance to the female shark Weipa, and she is likely to become a bridge between the Deep Sea Branch and the Deep River Shark Tribe.
Not only did she arrange an underwater environment for Weipa that simulated the shark's habitat, but she also personally arranged magic puppets nearby to act as guards.
Li Nuo told the other party the environmental requirements of the habitat in letters. Also sent to Selina with the letter was information related to the undercurrent spy intelligence network within the Chanal family.
After Selina settled Weipa, she invited Li Nuo to her study for a detailed discussion.
The two parties agreed that Selina would meet with Lape Chanal, the head of the Chanal family, in the next one to two weeks, and would bring Li Nuo with her.
This meeting between the two parties must be kept absolutely secret and will never be discovered by anyone inside or outside the family. Even the housekeeper, retainers, and guards around Lape Chanal cannot be insiders.
It’s not that you can’t trust Rappe Chanal’s cronies, it’s just that you have to be careful before Li Nuo uses deconstruction techniques to determine that the other party has nothing to do with the intelligence network of the undercurrent spies.
If there is a dark scale elder named Volantis lurking next to Rappe Chanel, wouldn't it immediately expose Li Nuo's intention to help Rappe Chanel clean up the spies within the family?
Li Nuo left all social work to Selina, and he began to practice the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method and deconstruct the sea area.
Of course, Li Nuo also handed over the magic book that was supposed to be handed over to Selina. This also includes the magical tomes of the Dreadsail Pirate Kingdom.
Researching and deciphering the magic books of the Dreadsail Pirate Kingdom has always been a key project of the Deep Sea Branch.
It is not as easy for ordinary wizards to crack the magic lock as Li Nuo. It will take at least half a year for the academy wizards to crack one-tenth of the magic locks.
Once the cracking work is noticed by the organizer of the magic lock, Professor Terrorfan behind the Terrorfan Wizard, the magic book will explode with a bang, destroying the magic lock and all the contents in the book.
Therefore, in most cases, the work of cracking the magic lock will inevitably fail.
But in order to obtain magical knowledge, the wizards of the academy had to try day after day, hoping that the magic book would not explode before the crack was completed.
Li Nuo does not intend to help the Deep Sea Branch and Selina in cracking the problem. He only thinks about practicing the "Deep Sea Scale" now.
On the second day after returning to the Suman Islands, it was just dawn. Li Nuo left Dinas' gentle home for a while and came to the east side of the inaccessible islands alone.
Li Nuo has five small islands in his hands. Except for the snow mountain island No. 1, the other four are all small islands covered by forests.
At the foot of the southeastern side of Snow Mountain Island No. 1, there is a small haven surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing the sea on one side.
As long as the side of the ocean is sealed with magic mist, Li Nuo can rely on the mountain to build a private practice place.
Li Nuo bought a magic mist device from Selena and placed it on the shore of the natural haven.
As the magic mist device is activated, billowing white mist spurts out from the trumpet-shaped nozzle.
In less than half an hour, a magical fog that neither sight nor detection spells could penetrate appeared in the sky above the natural haven, covering the sea and shore for thousands of meters in radius.
"The anti-detection matter is done. The next step is to enter the sea water and activate the meditation method. Once I have perfected the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method, I can transform into a sea monster, 'use myself as a boat' and venture alone. The sea is deep, there is no need to mess with other people’s boats. "
Li Nuo took off most of his clothes, leaving only his underpants to prevent exposure.
He stepped into the sea step by step, letting the cold water wrap around him.
When practicing the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method, you must be in direct contact with the corrosive seawater, and you must not use the "Magic Shield" to resist the corrosiveness of the seawater.
When Li Nuo soaked his whole body into the seawater, his skin connected with the seawater, and many warning messages from the system immediately flashed in his mind.
At the same time, a vague itching spread all over his body, as if there were many furry things teasing Li Nuo.
Li Nuo held his breath and was not disturbed by the itching on his body.
He sketched the spell blueprint of "Deep Sea Breathing" in his mind, and cast this terrifying sail-type deep-sea spell on himself that could breathe underwater.
The skin on his neck squirmed a few times, and several rows of magical creations similar to fish gills appeared on Li Nuo's neck.
Li Nuo tried to breathe and clearly felt the seawater flowing inside and outside his neck.
Breathing is smooth and unobstructed, and there is no choking on water. This "deep sea breathing" is quite useful.
Li Nuo calmed his mind, called up the meditation method list in his mind, selected the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method, and clicked to activate it.
The skin all over his body moved like waves.
Li Nuo groaned, feeling countless tiny bugs scurrying under his skin.
【system information:】
[You are practicing the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method. 】
[The level of meditation method is level 0, 0/1000]
[The completeness of the meditation method is 20%, and the system has removed all negative effects. Correspondingly, the meditation method experience acquisition efficiency is reduced to 20% of normal conditions, and the practice consumption is increased to five times. 】
[When in the cultivation state, every 5 minutes, the soul strength is -5 points, and the energy value is -50 points. 】
[When practicing this meditation method, your body will actively absorb the corrosiveness of seawater and suffer certain corrosive damage. 】
[It is expected that every 5 minutes of practice, the "Tenacity" attribute value will be temporarily -1. 】
[When the "Tenacity" attribute value drops to 0, you die immediately. 】
[Your current "Tenacity" is 19 points. 】
[The longer a single practice takes, the better the practice effect will be, but please pay attention to the decline of the "Tenacity" attribute value to avoid sudden death. 】
Li Nuo nodded secretly. The "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method was as dangerous as the one described on its panel.
Just a short time after activating the meditation method, the itching on my body turned into a stinging pain.
【system information:】
[You are attacked by "Sea Area No. 3 on the east side of the Suman Islands". 】
[You have suffered slight corrosive damage. 】
[The time interval for judging you in "Sea Area No. 3 on the east side of the Suman Islands" has been greatly reduced, from once every 35 minutes to once every 7 minutes. 】
[After practicing the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method this time, the system will calculate the meditation method experience and passive deconstruction rewards at one time. 】
Li Nuo looked at the back of his hand.
Obvious black stains appeared on the back of the hand, which was originally smooth. This stain is difficult to remove and sticks to the skin.
The pain from the stained areas is far stronger than that from the unstained areas. This is probably the specific manifestation of the "slight corrosion damage" mentioned by the system.
Li Nuo forced down the discomfort caused by the pain, reached into his magic pocket, took out a gold coin and held it in his hand, trying to activate the "Metal Fusion" meditation method.
Is it possible to practice two sets of meditation methods at the same time?
Li Nuo has always wanted to know the answer to this question.
After reading the message sent by the system, Li Nuo's eyes flashed with joy!
He can actually practice two sets of meditation methods at the same time!
[You are about to fuse a gold coin with a face value of 20. 】
[The item level of this gold coin is level 25, its mass is 25 grams, and it provides 625 meditation experience points. 】
[You need to consume 3125 energy points to fuse it. 】
[Are you sure to proceed with the fusion? 】
Li Nuo immediately recited silently:
"Confirm fusion!"
There was a warmth in the palm of my hand.
The gold coin that was close to the palm of his hand was integrated into Li Nuo's body and disappeared under his skin.
The system sent a message that forced fusion was successful.
Li Nuo took out handfuls of gold coins from his magic pocket, and continuously activated the "Metal Melting" meditation method to melt the gold coins in his hands in batches.
More than a hundred gold coins with a face value of 20 and nearly 500,000 energy points were invested by Li Nuo into the "Metal Fusion" meditation method.
The level of meditation increased sharply, from level 12 to level 20.
"Strength", "Will" and "Tenacity" all reached 20 points.
At this time, the duration of practicing the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method reached 5 minutes, and the "Tenacity" attribute value was temporarily reduced by 1, from 20 points to 19 points.
Two sets of meditation methods were practiced at the same time. The "Tenacity" attribute value first increased and then decreased, and the side effects of the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method were offset by the "Metal Fusion" meditation method.
Li Nuo thought secretly:
"Sure enough, it can be done like this. My imagination is really too big, and I can actually think of practicing two sets of meditation methods at the same time. If it weren't for practicing the "Sound of Silence" meditation method to enhance "spirit", I would want to try it Try to see if you can practice three sets of meditation methods at the same time. "
Li Nuo chuckled:
"Hey, my approach as a time management master is a bit too complicated..."
Li Nuo was amused by his own thoughts, but quickly calmed down.
He calculated the cost of gold coins and energy points for practicing the "Metal Fusion" meditation method.
Considering that the gold coins were relatively rich and the inventory of energy points was slightly insufficient, Li Nuo decided to use gold coins with a face value of 1,000 to practice instead.
He reached into his magic pocket, grabbed a handful of gold coins, and activated "Metal Fusion".
Time passes in the ebb and flow of the "Tenacity" attribute value.
The two suns in the sky move from east to west, from the rising sun in the morning to the setting sun in the evening, and finally sink into the sea.
It wasn't until the last ray of sunlight in the sky dissipated and the moon wheel with a halo appeared instead that Li Nuo left the sea and came to the shore to rest.
He was covered in large black stains, obviously corroded by the sea water.
But the moment he stopped practicing the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method, all the black stains were wiped away from Li Nuo's body by invisible force, just like being wiped by an eraser.
His skin became smooth and smooth again, without any stains. He stood on the moonlit seaside with a strong and strong posture.
If Li Nuo stepped into the sea this morning, he was a young man with a handsome appearance and a strong body.
Then at this time, he turned into a handsome wizard with a round waist, thick muscles, and muscles all over his body. He had an alternative beauty that was both handsome and tough.
Li Nuo raised his arms, looked at the arms that were several times thicker than before, clenched his fists, and waved forward casually.
"Ta!" A crisp sound broke through the air and bloomed in the fist.
Li Nuo waved towards the ground and used "Psychic Grasping" to get a beach rock.
He put the stone in his hand and squeezed it hard.
"Bang!" The stone was crushed by him and exploded!
"Swish, swish, swish..." The gravel and gravel slipped from his fingers.
His skin was unscathed, not even a scratch.
"Very good, very good. The effect of practicing two sets of meditation methods at the same time is immediate. As long as I prepare all the resources, my practice in one day is equivalent to other wizards' practice in several months or even a year."
Li Nuo raised the corners of his mouth and stood up straight.
The moonlight shone at him from high in the sky, casting an extremely oppressive burly figure on the shore.
The outer outline of this figure squirmed quickly, transforming from a sturdy man into a slightly stronger male body.
Li Nuo lowered his head and looked around. He was extremely satisfied with the effect of "Pretend Living Corpse" in changing the body shape. It was worth it that he upgraded this camouflage spell to level 100 on the spot.
As long as there is this layer of disguise, no one can discover the secret of Li Nuo's body unless he encounters a detection method that exceeds level 100, or he takes the initiative to reveal his powerful body.
After Li Nuo admired his body, he clicked on the system interface in his mind to view the training information summarized by the system.
【system information:】
[You consumed 3,025 gold coins with a denomination of 1,000 and 15.125 million energy points, and gained approximately 4.84 million points of "Metal Fusion" meditation method experience. 】
[The level of "Metal Fusion" meditation method has been increased to level 100! 】
[Your "Strength", "Tenacity" and "Will" are increased to 100 points! 】
[Subject to the change in type, your "charm" increases to 30 points. 】
[The upper limit of your energy value is increased to 336 (40+296) points. 】
[You have practiced the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method for a total of 500 minutes. 】
[Based on the intensity of seawater corrosion (slight) and the duration of meditation practice, you have gained a total of 50,000 meditation experience points. 】
[The level of "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method has been increased to level 9, 5000/10000]
[Because your "Will", "Tenacity" and "Dexterity" are all higher than the level of the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method, you did not receive any attribute bonus during this practice. 】
[Your current soul strength and energy value data are as follows:]
[Soul Strength] 7952 points
[Energy value] 1/336 (40+296)
[Energy value reserve] 2.772 million points
[Your deconstruction completion rate for "Sea Area No. 3 on the east side of the Suman Islands" has been increased to 0.8%. 】
[It is estimated that it will take 992 hours of practicing the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method to achieve 100% completion of the passive deconstruction of "Sea Area 3 on the east side of the Suman Islands"]
[The passive deconstruction results you obtain are as follows:]
[…(omit useless information)]
…
Li Nuo ignored the sharply shrunk energy inventory and the weak passive deconstruction progress.
This was within his plan and was nothing to worry about.
It was the result of practicing the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method that made him look at it a few more times.
"I still need 5,000 experience points to upgrade the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method to level 10..."
Li Nuo shrugged and walked towards the sea again:
"Okay, then I'll soak in the sea water for a while. Only when the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method reaches level 10 can I unlock the ability to transform into a sea monster. At that time, I can use the body of the sea monster to cast the "Terror Scale Invisibility Technique". "
This is the effect of the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method.
Withstands the corrosiveness of seawater in human form, is protected from the same degree of seawater corrosion in kraken form, and gains the ability to stay in water for long periods of time.
The No. 3 sea area on the east side of the Suman Islands where Li Nuo is currently located has only slight corrosion intensity.
After unlocking the meditation skill of transforming into a siren, he can swim freely in all seawater with only slight corrosive strength in the form of a siren.
The level of the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method starts from level 10. Every 30 levels, the strength of seawater corrosion that the Kraken's body can resist increases by one level.
In the future, when the level of the meditation method is high enough and Li Nuo can withstand higher levels of corrosion intensity, he will be able to swim in seawater with higher corrosion intensity.
This is the training idea of the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method.
Generally speaking, its improvement efficiency is not as good as "strong metal melting" that can be improved by krypton gold.
But in terms of practical application, the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method is undoubtedly a brick to knock on the door of the deep sea. It is far from comparable to the "Metal Fusion" with extremely low integrity and no special effects.
It's a pity to say that.
When Li Nuo used harmless deconstruction to obtain the "Metal Fusion" meditation method, the system removed the special effect of the "Absorbing Metal to Acquire Extraordinary Abilities" meditation method.
As a result, this meditation method has no highlights except for krypton gold upgrades.
The author has withered and entered a state of "sluggish thinking". He needs to take a break and find the right point and rhythm.
The outline and details of this book are sufficient, and the book has a total of 6 million to 8 million words.
The complete book is a long journey.
It’s normal to be tired due to too many code words.
In addition, I am quite busy in reality.
So this is a temporary update, thank you for your understanding.

Thanks for the monthly vote!
