The first swing fell into the water.
So did the next ten.
On the magical twelfth try, Neil has given up the 46-man raft, and tried for the paddling rescue boat.
He hooked it successfully.
Yay!
He started pulling it towards him. However, within a few seconds, Neil realized, it’s probably best to leave towing the raft out of saline waters to the baby whale.
He handed the rope to the whale, and in no time, the paddler was beside them.
Neil got into the water to remove the rope from baby
“Yes.” Adele answered.Neil was shocked into silence.“You don’t even know me.” Neil exclaimed.“I have fallen in love from the moment I have seen you. I always wanted to swim in your deep eyes, and be the end of every one of your thoughts. I love your curly hair and I live your webbed feet..” Adele continued.“Oh! For god’s sake.. Stop it!” Neil said, cracking a smile.Adele stopped with a smile.“Why would you say yes?” Neil wondered. Neil returned in far better spirits than when he left.Adele just finished her first session and the elderly whale looked like a blue watermelon with far too many stripes.She flew straight to the paddler Neil is at, settled in the seat beside himself.“You look different.” she said, as she looked at Neil.“Let’s just say, I just found the grand meaning of my life.” Neil said.Adele just smiled at him slightly, her eyes joining in the smile for the first time in a long while.Neil was shocked to look at the smile, for it is the first genuiTreasure hunting in endless ocean First Barrel
Neil was nowhere to be found by the time Adele finished her work.There were three more new barrels tied to the raft, and Neil seemed to be on the hunt for more.All the same, Adele sat down and opened her console.In the buildings, she checked the ones that are already researched.All of Neil’s researched buildings and blue prints are available to her, as is his inventory.She could only say it’s enormous.Only, she could not retrieve a single item from Neil’s inventory.If the s
The elderly whale did not stop with giving the quest. It immediately started towing their raft towards the burial ground. Neil and Adele just sat on the starboard, and enjoyed the joyride on a placid sea. It’s a nice feeling, to be able to just sit and cruise a wee bit above sea water. Adele was researching the drop of water it seems. “Neil! This drop of water is blessed water! Do you want to use it?” Adele asked excitedly as she looked at the properties of the blessed water. “But!.. It is the fruit of your labor.” Neil balked. He indeed wanted to tak
Rather than staying in water and suffering, Neil surfaced to catch his breath.His gills have not yet retracted, neither did his eyes.The detail with which he can see the night sky is amazing. More so, for he could only perceive magical and thermal bodies.Adele is a shining beacon of magic. No wonder Kraken camped underneath her with such persistence.Then, there were the bodies in the sky. Even without looking, he can tell, the magic beasts up there are far too big for him to even consider collecting their droppings.Coming to collecting! Why is he suffering like this when he has a system?<
The next day dawned bright, and this time around, they had a proper feast with bread and butter.Once it’s done, Adele opened her heart gem to check on the chat.[ CaptainHook: Looking for wooden boards. Can exchange 5 flounders for 5 boards. ][ wawa_wiggle: Buddy? Are you kidding? Any half witted idiot can catch a flounder with effort. ][ Lady Royale: Anyone have water? Please help me. ][ Pink princess: Hey… does anyone know what happened to jessica? ][ Martial King: She died. ][ Martial King: shark ate her. ]
Adele had settled into a gather and analyze mode once Neil left.The divine water cleansed the inventory slot on Neil’s inventory box. However, one inventory slot could fit a lot.Even better, Neil can breathe underwater, and the items are automatically sent over to another inventory slot when he collects another item.All Adele has to do is catch and move just the mana stones to her own inventory.After all, while the shop is built, and she could sell items in it, due to upgrades, it now needs four boxes.The basic shop needs one storage slot per item, and a subspace storage box linked to whatever magic they are doing in
Neil could not get a word out.After all, he knew he had been stupid.His uncle’s a fisherman, his mother’s a marine biologist, how in the world could he not know about the dangers of underwater?He is even well aware of every little danger, from Jellyfish bytes to underwater geysers.He just had been curious and greedy. There’s no way he can refute.Nope. he just had to play the puppy dog trick and pray to all the gods in the world it will work.He wilted like a flower in sunlight. His shoulders drooped, his chin touched his Adam's apple, his l
