Chapter 396: Chapter 396 Traceless Deep Sea_1
The size of the bracelet was basically the sa as the entrance at the back of the eyeball.
And the mont the two contacted, the latter reacted swiftly.
Starting from the entrance, it gradually beca semi-transparent, clearly revealing the blood-stained vitreous body within.
Imdiately afterward, this semi-transparent gel encapsulated the bracelet.
Fu Qian loosened his grip, allowing the bracelet to slowly sink into the eyeball.
No dreadful incident occurred, the bracelet didn’t even stir a ripple, and the eyeball’s semi-transparent condition soon disappeared.
Just like that, it’s gone?
Rembering the introduction of the Starry Prism, Fu Qian leaned in, staring into the large pupil of the latter.
No reaction at all?
Frowning, Fu Qian continued to watch stubbornly, not missing even the slightest detail in the iris.
And after half a minute of staring contest, Fu Qian finally accepted the harsh reality.
His 180,000 had vanished into thin air, without causing so much as a splash.
Damn it!
Fu Qian let out a long sigh to the heavens, not losing his sanity to the point of striking the eyeball, but rather pondering over the reason.
Could it be that the dicinal power wasn’t enough?
Based on previous experiences, these Transcendent objects also had a hierarchy among themselves.
For instance, the ti he inadvertently praised the sun and caused the birth of a stone lion, which was obviously very fragile and disintegrated the mont it entered the warehouse.
Therefore, it was very likely that the level of this bracelet wasn’t very high either.
Fortunately, he still had other resources, Fu Qian turned to look.
The next mont, he snatched up the large Standing Mirror, along with the photo attached to it, and directly faced it towards the gigantic eyeball.
In fact, he was quite curious about how the eyeball would swallow this thing.
Soon, he got his answer, as the eyeball once again turned semi-transparent and started stretching wildly from the rear entrance, in all directions, until it pulled itself into a mbrane, and then rapidly crawled onto the surface of the mirror.
Once the latter was completely enveloped, the mirror began to dissolve rapidly like rock candy and ultimately shrank to the shape of an eyeball.
Incredible!
Fu Qian clicked his tongue in admiration while leaning in once more.
This ti, there was finally a change.
Nearly in an instant, the giant pupil in front of Fu Qian constricted to a point.
At the sa ti, his perspective underwent so strange shift, and an enigmatic image appeared before his eyes.
The ocean?
Fu Qian was montarily stunned.
He saw very clearly, in the image was an endless expanse of black waters.
Under a canopy of stars, boundless waves undulated, interlacing to form a peculiar pattern of ripples.
Beyond that, there was nothing else.
What the hell—
Fu Qian widened his eyes, not missing any detail.
Sadly, still, he found no other points of reference.
And not giving him much more ti, the image of water and starlight quickly shattered into foam, and the enormous pupil reappeared before his eyes.
Is that it?
If he had to make sense of it, could it be said that the clue related to this mirror was located sowhere in the ocean?
It wasn’t too far-fetched of an idea, but the problem was which ocean?
There were no points of reference, just this one scene. Are you playing Geoguessr with this?
And to top it all off, it’s on extre difficulty!
Fu Qian exhaled deeply, restraining the urge to stuff everything else inside and blow up the eyeball. He simply activated the mark on his wrist.
Regardless, there was still a bit of a gain.
Once ho, Fu Qian imdiately found paper and pen, and began to draw from mory, making changes as he went.
After a full half hour, Fu Qian finally put down his pen and picked up his work.
A starry sky sprang forth on the paper.
It had been ntioned before, Fu Qian’s mory was pretty good, so upon realizing that the situation was screwed up, he decided to focus his attention on the night sky.
Therefore, he was quite confident about the accuracy of this star chart.
In comparison, he hadn’t been so obsessive as to morize each wave, so the sea below was rely represented by an expanse of water.
Studying his catch, Fu Qian realized an overlooked problem just now—the reflection.
Although the sea was not entirely pitch-black, there was no reflection of any stars on the water’s surface.
No wonder it had felt a bit odd.
Unfortunately, aside from that, by scrutinizing his drawing for a long ti, Fu Qian found nothing more.
Because he found himself unfamiliar with this starry sky.
He had never been much of an astronomy enthusiast, not to ntion that the starry skies of these two worlds were different.
But that was not a problem.
After thinking for a mont, Fu Qian activated the mark again.
Returning to the warehouse, he swiftly found the Emissary’s Mask and put it on.
After waking up from the second floor of the bookstore, Fu Qian once again found paper and pen and repeated the process.
With the experience from last ti, things went much smoother.
Several minutes later, he left with a piece of paper in hand, heading straight for the Night Watchn Base.
…
“Mr. Fang, how co you have so much free ti lately?”
Unfortunately, this ti Yuan Shan wasn’t very professional, and Fu Qian had to wait in her office for almost an hour before she finally showed up, late.
Realizing her expression was sowhat stiff, Fu Qian then recalled that it had only been two days since he last encountered Su Gao here.
Of course, her stiffness was nothing compared to his secretary’s. During the wait, Xiao Ming almost didn’t dare to breathe, seemingly on the verge of exhibiting symptoms of oxygen deprivation.
“I need your help with sothing.”
Hmm?
Yuan Shan was already wearing a solemn expression, and upon hearing Fu Qian’s words, she couldn’t help but beco even more cautious and tentative in tone.
“What do you need help with?”
“I need to find a place.”
“…You should’ve said that earlier.”
Yuan Shan was at first startled, then visibly relaxed, leaning back in her chair.
“Don’t worry, I can’t vouch for anything else, but if the Night Watchn can’t find a place, I guarantee no one else can—”
Splat!
Before she could finish, upon seeing the drawing handed over by Fu Qian, Yuan Shan nearly spewed out blood.
“What are you asking to find?”
Her hand holding the paper was trembling.
“Just this place, I need to know what this place is.”
Fu Qian put forth his request very calmly.
One must liberate their thinking and learn to delegate tasks, it’s the first quality of a leader.
“But there’s clearly nothing here, it’s just a sea!”
Yuan Shan was almost on the verge of yelling.
“Young people should not emphasize difficulties, but focus on solutions.”
“Within a week, I want all the information about this place.”
Applying appropriate pressure is also one of a leader’s qualities.
…
Looking at Yuan Shan’s expression, as uncomfortable as constipation, Fu Qian sighed and shook his head.
“When this is done, I’ll give you a one-ti voucher for my intervention.”
Providing the right incentive is also necessary.
After all, under the promise of empty checks, there will be brave n.
“Actually…”
In the tense silence, Yuan Shan, after a long pause, finally spoke.
“I actually have sothing I need your help with right now.”
“Hmm?”
Fu Qian looked at her with so surprise.
It seems that people these days are not so easily fooled, eschewing a million-year salary and insisting on being paid daily.
“Let’s hear it.”
