Outside the castle in Iowa, a space rift suddenly appeared. The legendary panda Xiu Ming walked out of the portal and walked straight towards the castle in the sight of many people.
This is not the first time Pandaren has come to Iowa Castle, but it is one of the rare times that he has refused the leadership of all the attendants. Pandaren has an official smile on his face, but under the smile, people feel a trace of fear.
"Your Excellency Xiu Ming? Are you here?" Gu Leiya, who heard about the arrival of the legend, hurried to the corridor of the castle and saw Xiu Ming already waiting in the lord's room.
"Gu Leiya?" When he saw the dragon girl, a trace of kindness finally appeared on Xiu Ming's face, "Where's the Lant man? I heard that he won a big victory recently!"
"Uh..." Of course the dragon girl knew his purpose. Jinghe, the former lord of the ocean and sky, was very fond of aquatic products. Whenever someone dedicated the defeated high-level sea monster to him, they would receive generous rewards.
As a lord supported by Red Dragon Rock, Lant had caught a live high-level octopus before, and was specially reminded by Klein that he should send the octopus to Red Dragon Rock as soon as possible.
However, several days had passed, and there was no movement at all from Lant's side, so the legendary panda man came over angrily, ready to take the octopus away directly.
"Sir, Lant wanted me to invite you." The dragon girl took the panda and walked out of the castle and entered the Iowa Mountains.
Xiu Ming looked at the magic patterns in the cave and asked curiously, "Why, Lant is planning to raise seafood in the mountains?"
"Uh..." The dragon girl led him through the long cave and entered a gate.
"Is this?" Xiu Ming could sense that the magic power around him was very different from that in other places. It seemed that it still followed the rules of the magic net, but was independent of the devil.
At this moment, Xiu Ming thought that Lant might really be breeding seafood. In order to prevent Poseidon's tentacles from peeking, he placed it in such a special place. Thinking of this, he even forgave Lant.
However, when the door opened, Xiu Ming was still stunned. Behind the door was a bright hall. The semicircular wall facing the door was already filled with rows of magic-patterned water tanks from bottom to top.
"These can't all be..." The legendary Pandaren's eyes opened wider and wider, and the hair on his body stood up.
There are dozens of water tanks on the wall, all of which are 2 meters square. In each water tank there is a magic algae that sprouts and grows leaves. Among these algae are three seeds given by Xiu Ming.
"Ah, your Excellency is finally here!"
The Pandaren turned around and saw Lant.
"I know you came here for that octopus, but unfortunately, you may have to take that octopus away later," Lant said with a hint of apology in his tone, but only pride could be seen on his face.
"That octopus is easy to talk about, but what about these..." For Xiu Ming, the octopus is no longer important. He is now eager to know how Lant conquered the secrets of the sea monster family and successfully raised the magic algae.
"As you know, we recently captured some living mermaids and sea monsters. When we rescued a high-level mermaid mage, we found that when she felt the threat of death, a certain insect egg in her body would It suddenly swallowed her flesh, blood and magic, and continued to expand into some kind of jellyfish. However, when we took out the living jellyfish, we found that this jellyfish was more of a container than a sea monster."
The sea monster, the mermaid, and the magic algae formed a certain chain under the cultivation of the sea god: the mermaid swallowed the seeds of the sea monster when he was young, and became a petri dish for the sea monster after reaching an advanced level. Before his death, the sea monster would Devour the high-level mermaid and become a petri dish for demonic algae.
Magic algae can only grow in the bodies of special sea monsters, namely jellyfish. When they grow up, they are collected by the mermaid clan and made into magic potions to cultivate more high-level ones.
"So for thousands of years, no race has successfully reproduced magic algae," the Pandaren nodded, "But according to you, a high-level mermaid can only feed one jellyfish container, but every magic tank you have now There’s a jellyfish in there, right?”
"Yes, a mermaid can only support one jellyfish, but not only the jellyfish larvae can only be parasitic in the mermaid's body!" Lant said with a smile, "Do you think that tens of thousands of years ago, the sea monster family and the mermaid family interacted with each other? When all is equal, what kind of life is cultivating these jellyfish?”
"The sea monster himself!" Xiu Ming reacted immediately.
"Yes, so an octopus with the ability to regenerate is particularly important to us. What's even better is that the jellyfish larvae can grow even more smoothly in his body than in the mermaid's body." Lant smiled more. A little gloating, "Now do you know why I didn't send the octopus to Red Dragon Rock?"
"Lant..." The Pandaren's big hand grasped Lant's hand tightly. At this moment, he could no longer hide his excitement. "I really saw you right! You are the first person to crack the code in tens of thousands of years." Sea Monster Mystery Man!”
Lant naturally knew the weight of the mystery of seaweed, so he was ready to hand it all back to Red Dragon Rock as soon as possible: "Except for the 3 seeds you gave me on this wall, the rest are all we got from the Elf Tribe and Breyak. Purchased, you can take these plants away at any time..."
"No!" Xiu Ming shook his head, "Keep these all with you!"
"What you did before was very correct. There are many people in the Red Dragon Rock. Once seen by other humans or dragons, it is likely to be known by the Poseidon! You should also be careful yourself. The mere germination of these plants is enough to attract the Poseidon. All-out war on you!”
"Then you still put the octopus..."
The Pandaren said without hesitation: "Stay here with you, and I will announce to the other dragons that you have been eaten because you don't understand the rules, and I have severely criticized you."
"Okay." Lant nodded. Since it was a show, he had to do a full set. Anyway, it was just for publicity.
Only then did Xiu Ming let go of his hand and took out a whole bunch of magic plant seeds from his arms: "I'll leave this bunch for you. These were brought out from the deep sea by His Majesty. They are different from these magic algae. If It can grow, I will definitely be grateful!"
"In that case, I won't be polite," Lant understood what Xiu Ming meant, which was to completely hand over all research on magic algae to himself. To a certain extent, it completely eliminated the possibility of Lant and Fiat joining the same lineage. , but it also made him more deeply bound to the Red Dragon Rock.
Watching Lant take the skewer, the Pandaren reminded again: "You have to be careful yourself. The legends in the human empire have an inexplicable relationship with the Poseidon clan. It's best not to let them know about it first."
"Don't worry, Your Excellency!"
