Chapter 1604 is a complete vacation
Chapter 1604 is a complete vacation
Lin Yu never expected that his main goal in coming to the Pure Ruins Realm would be achieved so easily.
This process was not just smooth, it could even be described as...easy.
Even though Lin Yu had anticipated that with Hannah around, things wouldn't be too troublesome, since Hannah had said that Whale Tears weren't anything particularly rare in the Middle Sea.
But no matter what, Lin Yu could never have imagined that Ka would give him a large jar as soon as they met.
No matter how many Whale Tears you need to create your own [Exclusive Item], this big jar will definitely be enough.
After putting away the entire jar of "Whale Tears," Lin Yu once again expressed his sincere gratitude to Ka.
"Thank you so much, Chef Ka."
Although his gratitude was genuine, receiving the [Whale Tears] too early also caused Lin Yu a dilemma.
That is……
His original "excuse" for operating in the Clean Ruins and the Central Sea with "The Fisherman"...
That's all for now.
There was no longer even an excuse to continue to the Central Sea.
After all, his official purpose was to collect [whale tears].
And now I've got [Whale Tears]...
"I've received the materials you requested. Now, what are you planning to do?"
Ka looked at Lin Yu and asked.
When Lin Yu heard the other party ask this question, he had no choice but to improvise since he hadn't prepared a second answer.
"I do not know."
Lin Yu gave a high-quality answer, showing just the right amount of confusion and contemplation: "To be honest, now that I have the goods, I think I can leave."
"But... it's a rare trip to come here, and we even used special [tools], so I feel it would be a bit of a waste to just leave like this."
"Besides, although my main purpose in coming back this time was indeed to collect [Whale Tears], I also felt that Hannah hadn't been back to the Pure Ruins for a long time, so I planned to let Hannah take a vacation and go home to visit."
“If she just leaves like this, wouldn’t it mean she didn’t even go home and just came here for show?”
As Lin Yu spoke, a hint of regret was in his voice.
Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, Ka spoke up.
"If you wish... perhaps you can wander around the Middle Sea with your friends, or go back to where our people are with Hannah, that's fine too."
Lin Yu immediately asked, "Is this convenient?"
Kadian nodded: "Of course, although the outer seas are in turmoil and various races have started wars for some reason, so it is not very peaceful, the middle sea is still peaceful."
Faced with Ka's invitation, Lin Yu became somewhat reserved.
"Are you sure this won't cause you any trouble?"
Of course not!
As Ka spoke, Hannah immediately chimed in, "Quack! Boss, Uncle Liu said so, so it must be no problem!"
"I'd also like you to come home with me!"
As Hannah spoke, Lin Yu nodded, "In that case... let's set off now."
La said, "Actually, while you were focused on cooking, I was swimming the restaurant forward the whole time."
As she spoke, La pointed with her tentacles toward the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows.
The blackness on the originally pitch-black floor-to-ceiling windows gradually faded, and Lin Yu belatedly realized...
The darkness outside the window wasn't because they were still in the "Sea of Death," but because the glass was set to be opaque and coated with a layer of ink.
And now that it has become transparent again...
Lin Yu also saw the scene outside.
It was a sea area more splendid and clear than any other sea area in Jingxu, filled with a fairytale and dreamlike atmosphere.
The seawater was clear, and the seabed was covered with fine, soft white sand. Many clusters of pinkish-blue, crystal-clear corals grew among the sand, and many garden eels swayed around the corals with the seawater.
Various beautiful tropical fish swim around in the sea, and the sunlight shines down from the surface of the sea, illuminating the entire seawater.
Rather than describing this area as a sea, it's more like a giant aquarium.
La's enormous body slowly lowered the restaurant where Lin Yu and the others were, and then another tentacle slowly lowered the Sea Moth.
Hannah swam quickly out of the restaurant and happily swam in the sea.
"Gentlemen, because La has been busy taking exams and running a restaurant in recent years, she rarely comes back. I'll take her back to visit. Anyway, let Xiao Ba take you around the neighborhood for a bit, and then come to our house for dinner when it's almost time to eat. I'll treat you to a meal then."
"Kabinbin said politely."
Lin Yu and Chen Le naturally had no objections.
After temporarily anchoring the Seamoth on the beach and saying goodbye to Ka and La, they followed Hannah into the sea.
The seawater here envelops you, feeling gentle and warm, and you can even faintly smell a "sweet" aroma inside your mouth and nose.
"What a beautiful place!"
Lin Yu said with emotion.
Hannah happily introduced to Lin Yu: "Quack... Of course! The Middle Sea is clean and beautiful everywhere, and the community where our clan lives is the most beautiful place in the Middle Sea!"
Chen Le also expressed his feelings, but he had been to the Central Sea many times, and his feelings were not exactly the same as Lin Yu's: "This is my first time in this community of the Octopus Clan... The Central Sea is not easy to enter, and very few 'players' have set foot here - but I think we are definitely not the first 'players' to come here."
As Chen Le spoke, Lin Yu asked with some curiosity, "How do you know?"
“Look over there.”
Chen Le pointed to a cluster of buildings not far away—there were many octopuses that looked like Kara going in and out of them.
Hannah explained, "Quack! That's an area called 'Apartments.' Many single octopuses who don't want to live with their parents or siblings and aren't married live there alone!"
"If I hadn't followed you, boss, I might have also received a house there—it's said that the houses there were designed and built with the help of an otherworldly person like you, boss."
Lin Yu nodded: "I fully believe that this place was designed with the participation of people from our world."
because……
The large complex of buildings, from the outside, looked exactly like a series of black and blue Easter statues.
This design, full of wicked humor, reminds most people on Earth who have watched children's cartoons of a setting from a certain classic animated film.
"Giving an octopus a house shaped like this is quite an interesting thing. I really want to meet it and introduce it to the other people in the organization."
Chen Le stroked his chin and said.
Hannah asked curiously, "Quack, boss, is there any story behind this house where you live?"
“Yes, and it’s a story completely related to you octopuses,” Lin Yu said. “Anyway… I’ll show you an animation after we go out and you’ll probably understand.”
Hannah was overjoyed: "Quack! Great! I love watching cartoons—there are even cartoons with an octopus as the main character? That's wonderful!"
"He's not exactly the main character, he's more of an important supporting character," Chen Le interjected. "The main character is a square, yellow sponge cook who lives in a pineapple house."
Hannah exclaimed in surprise, "Quack! There's an octopus and a chef in this cartoon! This is getting more and more intriguing!"
"If I had known about this kind of animation earlier, I would have asked you to buy some DVDs and play them—everyone would have loved it."
Hannah said optimistically.
"I don't think all your people will necessarily like it..."
Lin Yu recalled most of the details he could remember and said helplessly.
The two people and the octopus chatted casually as they strolled leisurely through the octopus community.
Lin Yu and Chen Le were just looking at something new and treating it like a tourist attraction.
Hannah, on the other hand, felt like she was returning to a familiar place after a long absence from her hometown.
Of course, this octopus community is indeed very beautiful everywhere.
Apart from that abstract residential area designed by some unknown "player," most of the other residential areas consist of beautiful domed buildings with bright and vibrant colors, making them very pleasing to the eye.
Outside the residential area, there are also various entertainment and commercial areas. The octopuses gather in the venue, either playing a ball game that looks like bowling but with the goal of hitting a pile of fish bones, or creating art in the sculpture and painting experience hall.
of course……
The most common shops are still various restaurants, bars, and beverage shops.
The most popular form of entertainment is still open banquets that anyone can attend.
This place... is, after all, the Pure Ruins, the Central Sea, and the settlement chosen by the God of Banquets!
Lin Yu and Chen Le, naturally, also attended several banquets that seemed quite nice, under Hannah's guidance.
Although the enthusiastic octopuses hadn't seen many humans before, they were only briefly surprised before accepting Lin Yu and Chen Le as human companions and sharing fine wine and food with them.
Grilled fish fillets, braised pork in sauce, sweet fruit wine, and unique ink-based drinks...
Because they were going to attend a welcome banquet hosted by the card that evening, the two of them only picked out a few dishes to try—but even so, Chen Le and Lin Yu were still a little dizzy from eating and drinking.
After walking out of yet another restaurant, Chen Le, holding a wine glass in his hand, looked at Lin Yu and let out a burp.
"To be honest... 'Zhu Ming', when Boss Fang Qing asked me to come to Jingxu with you, I thought I would be the one taking care of you this time."
"So now... I'm the one who's benefiting from your success!"
"Since joining the 'Death Game', this has been the most leisurely 'dungeon' I've ever been in... Well, using the 'Proof of the Sea Beast' to enter doesn't really count as a 'dungeon'; it's more like the most leisurely time I've ever spent in the 'Ten Realms'!"
"This is totally like a vacation!"
