Not only is the river water filled with strong thunder elements, but the surrounding air is also quite dense with thunder elements.
Jiang Bai poked his head and looked down. The hair on his head stood up one by one because of the thunder element, and there was a dense tingling sensation on his face.
The lightning in the sky also seemed to be pulled by the thunder element here, and from time to time there would be lightning striking by the river or in the river.
"Gudong, what do you think will happen if you fall into the river? Will you mutate into a reslime or die?"
Jiang Bai poked Gudong on his shoulder. Gudong rolled his eyes and followed the example of a fish with his belly up, lying on his shoulder pretending to be dead.
Just like water slimes will be burned to death if they run into a furnace, they will be electrocuted if they enter here!
"Don't be afraid. Fire slimes will only extinguish their flames in water. Maybe it will be fine if you enter an environment with a strong thunder element?"
Hearing this, Gudong, who was pretending to be dead, foamed at the mouth.
Who says that fire slimes will not die in water? Although they will be fine for a while, they will die due to the disappearance of the fire element if they stay for a long time!
Despite this, Jiang Bai does not intend to give up this idea. After all, it is still very tentative.
"Let's do this. I'll find a small puddle and inject a little thunder element into it. With just a little bit of thunder element, you will definitely be fine. Based on what you can bear, I will strengthen the thunder element in the pool little by little. Maybe you can mutate and become a mine slime that can use two elements!"
Jiang Bai described his wonderful idea to Gudong and the safety of the experiment, while not forgetting to draw a picture for Gudong.
"Think about it, if you become a slime that can use two elemental powers, you will be the only slime in the world! Then all pure water elves will be garbage!"
Gudong's heartbeat was visible to the naked eye. Its round body swelled up little by little, and its eyes brightened.
Just do it. Jiang Bai found a small puddle, built a roof with rock elements to protect him from the rain, squatted on the ground and began to inject thunder elements into the water.
"Okay, come on Gudong!"
Gudong lay on the ground, looking at the lightning arcs flashing in the water in front of him. His jelly-like body stretched out a small claw and tentatively touched the water.
It's a little numb, but it's okay and acceptable.
It soaked its entire body into the pool, and after a while, small thunder arcs appeared on its body. It was obvious that the thunder element spread to its body along the water, and it also became an electrical conductor.
Jiang Bai slowly increased the content of the thunder element. Gudong went from being quite comfortable at the beginning to struggling with pain, then to discomfort. Finally, he jumped out of the water with a splash, his eyes spinning in circles like mosquito coils.
Obviously, the coexistence of the two elements envisioned by Jiang Bai did not come true, and Gudong was stunned.
"It doesn't seem possible."
Jiang Bai stretched out his hand to absorb all the thunder elements from Gudong's body, and then put it on his shoulder. Gudong showed a small expression of surviving the disaster.
Elemental creatures like slime are still too pure. Adding a second element will contaminate it and destroy its own purity, which is not worth the gain.
The rain on Baling Island is intermittent, stopping for a while and then coming on. The sky is always overcast, but there is no sunshine.
Jiang Bai saw a group of people not far away, four or five in number.
They went out for activities when it wasn't raining. They wore bamboo hats and long knives on their waists. One of them was also covered with some armor. He looked much taller than the others, like the leader. .
"This should be the wandering samurai that Manyo calls."
The clothes on these people were not like the standard clothes in the big camp that they had seen before. Instead, they looked a little tattered. Even the hats on their heads had mushrooms growing on them from being exposed to the rain for a long time.
"If they are wandering warriors, maybe I can find out from them what happened on the island and whether I have seen a Liyue person."
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Jiang Bai took out his coir raincoat from the space and put it on his shoulders. He also took out a bamboo hat and pretended to be an ordinary person looking for shelter from the rain.
His God's Eye has been put away a long time ago. It is just a decoration in itself. It is strictly inspected here, so naturally he will not bring it if he can.
Jiang Bai hurried over with his bare feet stepping on the water. His trousers and sleeves were rolled up, and there was a lot of mud on his feet. He looked embarrassed and looked easy to bully.
Several wandering warriors immediately became vigilant when they heard the movement, with their hands on the handles of their swords, ready to attack at any time.
Seeing this posture, Jiang Bai's face under the bamboo hat twitched, knowing the ferocity of this group of people.
Although Liyue's treasure-thief group is a bit annoying, they are not lethal at all, and the weapons they use are quite pragmatic, such as hammers, iron balls, shovels and so on.
Looking at the posture of these wandering warriors preparing to draw their swords, it is obvious that they are ready to make a killing move at any time.
There really is no harm without comparison.
Jiang Bai slowed down and raised his hands to show that he was not a threat.
"Hey! I see it's about to rain again. My raincoat is torn. Can you take shelter here? It won't take long. Just let me mend the raincoat!"
The leading wandering warrior glanced at him up and down. Although he was wearing a raincoat, some of his clothes were still exposed. Although he couldn't see the whole picture, the material of the clothes was obviously fine silk and satin.
Moreover, Jiang Bai's exposed arms and calves were smooth and delicate, and there were even no calluses on his hands. At first glance, he looked like someone from a wealthy family who had not done much work.
Good family background = rich
Tender skin, no calluses = no force
Such people are the best targets for robbery.
But just to be on the safe side, we still have to test it out.
"Where did you come from? Where are you going? Why haven't I seen you before?"
"I came from Narukami Island to find a friend on this island. He has been here for a long time, but no news has been sent back. I was a little worried, so I came over to take a look."
Jiang Bai told the whole story of his coming, looking innocent as he rarely went out and didn't know the dangers of the world.
From Narukami Island?
The leader Hai Luanggui narrowed his eyes and said, "Okay, you can come to the cave to take shelter from the rain."
"Thank you very much!" Jiang Bai clasped his hands together and trotted into the cave.
The cave is relatively high, and no rainwater seeps in. There is a lot of hay spread in the cave, although a lot of it is moldy.
There were some messy things piled in the corner, including firewood, some clothes, and some wooden boxes with unknown contents.
There was also a fire burning, and some food was being cooked in an iron pot on it.
Obviously, this is a stronghold for these people.
On the Baling Island where it rains all the time, it is really important to find such a cave with good terrain and shelter from wind and rain.
