Her 430 Million Years

After arguing with Fei Si, the resentment in Liuxiang's heart could not dissipate for a long time.

After Lina took the initiative to talk to her, this resentment rose to the extreme.

On campus, she saw a group of people approaching with the "Black Coral Goddess Gang", bowing their heads to pass them silently, but Lina's little attendant blocked her.

"Oh, I didn't expect to look down on you before." Lina didn't even look back, just looked ahead and smiled arrogantly, "Lumi, is it your mother's name?"

"What do you want to do?"

"Why are you nervous like that? I won't eat you again. I just saw the news, the deputy captain of the deep dive team, Ryumei. It seems that you are not as bad as I thought. Unfortunately, you have now become a master of God. I’m a little follower, otherwise, I don’t mind letting you play with us — anyway, congratulations to your mother for making a great contribution to Gwanghae.” After speaking, Lina took her follower away. .

Liu Xiang has studied Lina for many years, and knowing that Lina can speak this way, she has already shown her favor to a large extent.

The Red Moon Festival at the end of December is coming soon, which also means the five-day holiday is coming.During this period of time, the school was filled with a cheerful atmosphere of the upcoming holiday.At the same time, the news that the Federal Deep Diving Team successfully dived into the bottom of the "Meteor Trench" and completed an accurate measurement of 8274 meters has also become news headlines on various platforms.The Guanghai people can predict the direction of earthquakes, tsunamis and ocean currents based on the vertical movement of the crust in the detection area, changes in velocity, and the friction of ocean floor plates. This is of great significance in weather forecasting, disaster mitigation and prevention, and even research on potions.

The work of the deep dive team has always been respected and highly paid.Her mother's annual salary is 117,000 floats.Her father was an ordinary office worker and good old man in the Clownfish Pharmacy Company. He had cheated and cried bitterly for three months, begging for two full years, and was forgiven by his mother.But since then, when his father eats at home, even when he uses his chopsticks, he depends on his mother's face, which has been the case for decades.

Because of her mother's work, Liu Xiang lived in St. Jergana for a long time when she was young, and did not return to Luoya until high school.Moreover, their family are all fairy tribes carrying cichlid genes-outstanding marine tribes with beautiful tail fins.Therefore, even if it seems humble, Liuxiang's bones have always had an arrogance that ordinary ocean races do not have.She looked down on Fei Si, not only because Fei Si thought very much, but also because Fei Si was indeed a very village girl, but she still showed her knowledge of women in front of her, which really made her sick.

Now that her mother's work has achieved significant results, the first person to congratulate her is not her friend, but Lina.Her mood was very complicated, and she felt that Fei Si was a short-sighted village girl.

At this moment, You Can bought a fresh sea canopy, wagging his bright orange tail, and used it to share with Liuxiang. When she was confronted by her, she cursed: "You know, your friend is really disgusting." !"

"Ah, my friend?"

"Yes! Your friend! Faey, she is really disgusting, all kinds of sluts humiliate me!"

"What, Faith dared to attack my big baby!" You Can was also angry, "What did she say? I'll help you get justice!"

Then, Liu Xiang told him about the content of the dispute with Fei Si.After listening, You Can scratched his head: "I thought it was such a big deal, so you were talking about this... No way, Fei Si and Lan Si are salmon clan, their culture is very conservative, just ignore them."

"Of course I know the salmon culture! Do you think I'm a fool?" Liuxiang rolled her eyes, she didn't even realize that she looked like Lina, "What I'm not happy about is that she has her culture. , Then just live according to her old-fashioned culture. Why do you point fingers at me and scold the Orcs! Doesn’t she know that the Orcs are much better than her? If she has the body of the Orcs, Maybe it's 10,000 times more waves than the fierce princess!"

"Liuxiang... you didn't say that before, you have always hated the'Black Coral Goddess Gang'..."

"I've changed now, can't it? I hate your disgusting friend more than the Orca, can't it?!"

Under her anger, You Can didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only lower her head and wait for her to recover calmly.However, Liuxiang was still losing her temper endlessly.And the more silent he is, the stronger Liuxiang’s temper, but for this kind of girl’s topic, he really doesn’t know how to pick it up, so he can only send the Hai Pengzi in his hand and say, obediently: "Liuxiang, don’t be angry Now, come and eat something..."

Before he could finish his words, Hai Pengzi was blown away by Liuxiang and washed away in the water.Originally, Liuxiang was just angry, and she felt that she was too much after such a disturbance, but she couldn't find herself down the stairs, but froze into a wooden fish.

"I always think that girls' love history is not important," You Can's tone became cold. "But if you are furious because your friends advise you to be conservative, then you are also quite unreasonable. Faith may be strong, but she doesn't. Want to hurt you. If you dare not quarrel with her, just bully me, is it too much?"

"What..." Liuxiang was stunned.

"I think you are simply bullying the soft and afraid of the hard." You Can left in a huff.

Although he lost a great temper, the moment he turned around, his lips trembled aggrievedly, and tears poured into the sea.

Two days before the Red Moon Festival holiday, the landlord’s wife bargained with the tenants downstairs, her voice was as loud as her lung capacity, and the fanli upstairs shouted to cover her ears and fins.She carefully studied the black market map on the table, and didn't even know Dangdang knocked on the door to come in.So, the moment Dangdang patted her shoulder, she yelled "Wow" and bounced off the chair.

"What are you looking at? So serious." Dangdang looked down.

Fan Li sat down on the table, wagging her tail left and right: "It's nothing, just a map of the Red Moon Sea."

"Haha, do you also want to travel during the holiday? But, everyone likes to go out this holiday, the scenic spots in the Red Moon Sea area will be very crowded." Dangdang immediately lost the map and became disinterested, carrying his hands on his back with a deep face Unpredictable, "It's okay, do you know what surprise I have prepared for you?"

"What surprise?"

Dangdang threw the braid behind his back and took out two papers full of itinerary: "Qiangqiangqiang! Three-day tour of the resurrection sea! Two-person package! I have already bought it! I invite you to play!"

At this time, the landlord's wife downstairs shouted: "When you speak quietly, the guests are so noisy that you can't hear me!"

Dangdang yelled back: "I'm sorry to disturb you, such a quiet and elegant landlady!!"

"Is this, this? You can go with your boyfriend for a two-person package." Fan Li didn't recover for a while.She has made arrangements to go to the black market in the past five days.

"What the hell, you don't seem to be surprised at all. He will go too, but he has to accompany his daughter two days ago, and will reconcile with us at the Resurrection Sea on the third day, and then pick us back to Luoya. Two days ago It belongs to our sisters only! Isn't this a good plan?"

"Your boyfriend is so generous and will buy me a travel package, but I will feel very embarrassed..."

"Shut up, this is not what he bought. It's me!" Dangdang patted his chest excitedly, "I bought it! So this is a poor package. You'd better not despise me, otherwise you will let it in the next half month. You eat live crabs!"

"No, Dangdang, I have other arrangements these days."

"You want to date Xinghai?!"

"No, no, it's something else..."

"Then you can't refuse me! I have already paid, because it is the cheapest, and there is no refund! So, see you the next morning!" After that, Dangdang took the travel itinerary on the table of Fanli and turned and fell. The door went out.After three seconds, she opened the door again and smirked at Fanli from the crack of the door: "You can also ask Xinghai to come together. The four of us make an appointment."

Xinghai did make an appointment with her and asked her to go on a picnic in the cities around the Red Moon Sea, with his colleagues in the "Sea Clan Ship".But obviously, Xinghai refused much better than Dangdang.After she said there were other things, he simply let go of his colleagues' pigeons, and became a traitor who worked overtime to please his boss during that holiday.

After class the next day, there was a holiday carnival in the school. After Fan Li patiently asked Xinghai to send herself home, she took the map and found Xiluo Town by ship.

Different from the idea, Xiluo Town is not a dark and noisy place, but has an idyllic scenery like a paradise: all the buildings here are made of large conch, the shell is orange and brown, and each one is a farmhouse by itself. The hut and the door are planted with crops, surrounded by "kelp forests" or "seagrass fields", and all kinds of artificially cultivated marine life linger in them.The degree of commercialization of the entire town is very low. Almost all the commodities traded are agricultural products. Apart from the small towns in the city center, the other places are completely rural.

Compared with this place, Fanli feels that the slum she lives in is more of a black market style.

Then, according to the rumors, she found a farmer who was guarding the seaweed farm and gave him 15 virtues.He took the coin, threw it into his pocket quickly, threw a black cloak to her, hooked her finger, and swam into the giant algae forest without looking back.She quickly put on her cloak and followed, seeing him point to the place where the seaweed roots were exposed to orange light, and then turned back to where she had been sitting before.

Fan Li pulled the seaweed away and swam to the orange light. She was curious about how to get in. Suddenly a big mouth cracked on the ground, revealing a mouthful of deep-sea fish's fangs, and she "sucked" her into her mouth with a strong force.

With a scream, she landed on the dry sand frontally, her hat was over her head to block her vision, and her tail quickly turned into legs.

All kinds of human voices clamored around, sandwiching the high-pitched laughter of the coquettish woman; the smell of cooked food, pepper, pasta, and spices spread over the surface, stimulating the sensitive taste.Fan Li pushed the black cloth brim that blocked his vision, raised his head, and saw a prosperous underground city completely different from Conch Town: the city is nearly 100 meters high, the ground is red desert, and the "ceiling" is mixed with stalactites. The compound form of forest and tropical rainforest, strange-shaped vines hang upside down on the "ceiling", not growing upwards, but growing downwards.The dark green Musaceae leaves fall from time to time, fall into the red sand, and are picked up and used as fans.

The population density of the underground city is much greater than that above, even if the place is actually very spacious, it feels very crowded.All sea races are terrestrial, so there is no race.Merchants wore dark golden cloaks, travelers wore black cloaks.From above, it looks like an underground nest full of black ants and gold ants.

Fan Li slowly climbed up, covered his hat, and entered the crowd. At the same time, he saw a lot of strange pictures: someone bought a drink, instead of pouring it in a cup, he took out a thick book and turned to it with a mountain spring illustration. The page of ——Pour the wine you bought into the mountain spring, next time you can open the book to drink; the face of the clockwork marine puppet will change, and the widowed man puts the photo and coins of his deceased wife into his mouth, and it just It became what it looked like in the photo, and then he hugged it in his arms. Seven or eight ghostly phantoms whirred around them; some black market bosses sold the Abyssal race at high prices, just like the slave market sold slaves. The abyss tribe is locked in a cage, but the abyss tribe is not as docile as slaves. They are ferocious like beasts, and they are often killed on the spot by breaking their chains. At the entrance of a small shop named "Puppet House", one The ragged man walked out and lit a cigarette for himself, but the smoke came out of the skull hole that was gnawed by scavengers; the brothel was not hidden, but like a department store on the first floor, he scratched his head The prostitutes are displayed as merchandise in the window. Among them, the prostitutes of the whitebait tribe always entertained one customer, and were soon ordered away by the next customer. The dark-scaly races even hide their tails. People are interested, they can only keep pouting their lips and cock their buttocks, releasing various temptation signals to passers-by...

When passing by the door of the brothel, Fanli heard the men waiting for the silverfish woman at the door discussing:

"In the traditional sea area like the sea, where prostitution is legalized, why is it still banned in a big city like Luoya? So we don't have to wait in line for the whitebait people."

"Do you think that with more prostitutes, the number of customers will not change? At that time, even the Poseidon tribe who disdain to come to the Underground City will rush to you, and the price will fly. You can't afford to prostitute here, you still go out. Sorry, go to sleep."

"That's right, Buco Yaka supports prostitution legally. But the above has never passed."

"He just wants to prostitute himself."

Here, everyone speaks vulgarly and directly, but the advantage is that you can get an answer immediately if you want to inquire about it.Fan Li learned from a boss that many vendors sell potions for racial promotion, but tell you that 100% of them can be turned into liars. The success rate is extremely low. Good luck is just a serious illness, and bad luck. It may die directly, and the corpse will be sold to the underground potion experiment organization.It is recognized that the most reputable organization is the Black Crocodile Trade Union. Their boss is a big figure who eats everything in black and white. They do a lot of illegal transactions and will truthfully explain the mortality rate of racial transformation. They are located just west of the Underground City.

On the way to the Black Crocodile Union, there is a cemetery along the way.There are people coming and going, and there are always people carrying Senbai's bones from the west, reciting sacrificial texts and burying them on the spot.

These corpse lifters just walked in the same direction with her, and reached her destination: a huge building was built on the steps of the Arabian palace.The hanging vines cover most of the building, and slaves are cleaning the leaves of the plants on the stairs, and the red sand brought by the crowd.On the right side of the rough stone arch, there is a huge black crocodile logo with "Black Crocodile Guild" written below.

Those who carried the corpse went back to this building, and from time to time, new corpses sent the bones out.At the same time, some hunters ran out of the building excitedly, rushed down the steps, and looked at their fangs, pointed ears and vertical pupils with a mirror, as if they had won a lottery of 10 million.

Another hunter ran up to Fanli and shouted excitedly to her: "I succeeded! I succeeded!! Hahahahahahaha! Thank you boss, I love you! Hahahaha!!!"

"You... are you successfully promoted to hunter clan?" Fan Li said in surprise.

"Yes! I have become a banner clan, and it feels great! It's a pity that I didn't draw the shark clan and the orca clan... But I'm already very satisfied! Miss sister, come on, don't be afraid, the top of the food chain The world is waiting for you!"

The man danced and ran away, but the snack vendor beside him frowned and said, “Don’t listen to him. The Black Crocodile’s Heart of Styx is indeed the best racial promotion potion, but even if it becomes a hunter, It is still acquired. There is a high probability of genetic mutations and acquired diseases. Not to mention failure cases. Here, look. You die in this kind of place without a crystal coffin. Why bother." He lifted his chin. At the right place, a body lifter was picking up a leg bone that fell on the ground.

"Why are there no coffins?" Fan Li only felt strange, why these people were buried in the underground city.

"There are only a bunch of white bones in the terrestrial state. Obviously they died because of the failure to promote the race. Quan Guanghai prohibits the production of racial conversion potions. When he is buried on it, if he is buried in this form, it will be troublesome to investigate. The death agreement they signed with you will require you to be buried in the underground city cemetery after failure."

Fan Li heard her hair straight up: "But, the underground city is so big and the black crocodile union is so obvious, can't the government find out..."

"Haha, of course the government knows everything. This is what I want to tell you, don’t think that if you succeed, you can get rid of the ocean race’s past and start a successful life again. Do you remember who you are drinking? The medicines sold-even if they succeed, they will live under their minions for the rest of their lives and will do things for them."

What a terrible place.

Fan Li boldly walked in and found that there were more people inside than outside.The Black Crocodile Union is nothing like a gang, and its service quality is comparable to that of Apple's flagship store-the number of service staff is almost the same as that of customers.

As soon as the foreman manager asked the guests to sign the contract, he found out where Fanli was.He walked over with joy and smiled at Fanli: "This lady, do you want to become a hunter? You are so young. At this age, taking our "Heart of Styx", the success rate is very high. ."

His smile is so kind, as if he was selling skin care products.Fan Li thought of the scene outside the door, and shook her head in shock: "I...I dare not. Just come and take a look."

"Haha, you dare to drink such a dangerous potion for soul exchange, what kind of racial promotion are you afraid of."

"I haven't taken the medicine you mentioned. Don't make false accusations."

"It’s the first time to come to the Underground City? Don’t worry, you don’t need to be afraid of drinking any forbidden drugs here. Don’t worry about me. I graduated from the Amaterasu Magic Medicine School of Economics, and I’m not as good as you. How weak is the technical college." When Fan Li was not answering the conversation, the foreman manager smiled, "Is it curious, how do I know that you are from Luoya University."

"Maybe."

"I also know that little slaves like you who have done soul exchanges will not be satisfied so easily. You have got rid of the past of slaves and become ordinary citizens, and then it is time to advance to a higher world. Take a look at Lina from your school. She didn’t even mention who her father was, but she didn’t prevent her from wearing the badge of the Ouroboros. It’s all thanks to her mother. To be a man, she has to be spared and pay more than others. A little bit more can get what others can't get."

It turned out that the manager regarded her as a slave to the magpie's nest.Fanli avoided the topic: "What happened to Lina?"

"This is a priceless secret."

"Okay. Why is the promotion failure rate so high, and so many people continue to become hunters? Are hunters so attractive?"

"First of all, I want to correct you: the failure rate is not as high as you think. It's just that the bones are scary. When you see a skeleton, you will forget the 100 successful cases. But we never hide the bones privately. Honesty makes people carry it out. We are honest with our guests and lower their expectations. When successful, they will be happier. To your second question, the answer is yes. Everyone wants to be a hunter. Multiply their life span several times, The unimaginable survivability and physique of the Ocean Race, the respected social status... Compared with these alluring factors, what is the risk of death. It is a pity that there is no medicine that can make people become the Sea God, and there is no one. Drugs can prevent the reproductive isolation of the Poseidon and other races. Otherwise, our store will at least expand the area more than three times."

Fanli looked around and said in a puzzled voice: "Why are there so many young people? Can't you wait for the time to die to take the potion?"

"Miss, your idea is very good, and we also hope to treat the'Heart of Styx' as a gift to save the dying elderly. Unfortunately, the success rate is related to physical fitness. The younger the body, the higher the success rate. Before taking "Heart of Styx", all customers need to undergo a comprehensive physical examination and get their approximate success rate. It is good for the elderly to see such a high mortality rate and not be scared to death on the spot, let alone take risks. Take medicine."

"I heard that even if the promotion is successful, it will be controlled by the organization, is it true?"

In fact, Fanli just asked this question casually, not very curious.Because a person with no use value will not be afraid of being controlled and used.

"The young lady is young and thinks well. I will answer for you: In our business of turning you into a hunter, we can also include creating a new identity. You can choose not to have this identity, or you can choose not to Fettered by the black market, start a new life by yourself."

"Those who take medicine for the black crocodiles are voluntary?"

"Yes."

"why……"

"Those who want to become hunters have ambitions, otherwise they will not take this path, but will be at ease as a marine clan. For example, the marine clan from the slave market suffers discrimination and hates their identity. In order to climb higher, I chose to be promoted to hunters. But the native hunters have a circle. Why do they accept a mysterious kind with no background? Therefore, this newly promoted hunter wants to consolidate new status and resources , Will still have'trade' with the black market. There is an organization as big as the black crocodiles for them to rely on, and they can't ask for it, how can they refuse to cooperate with us?"

The laws of the underground world are so cold that Fan Li can't help but wrap his clothes tightly: "People outside said that the boss of the Black Crocodile Guild is a black and white person...Who is this person?"

"What he should be talking about is our boss, Mr. Ada, the richest man in the Underground City. The'Baidao' he cooperates with is one of Red Moon Sea's business giants. These are all information I can tell you." The manager paused, " The real master behind the scenes is not easy to mention even in the Underground City. Anyway, this person is closely related to the developer of the Heart of Styx. You should know who the developer is."

Of course, Fanli didn't know who it was, but he was too embarrassed to ask more: "Understood, thank you for telling me so much. Can I check the success rate first, and then decide whether to take the medicine?"

"Of course. Please come with me."

Fanli was taken to a place like a medical examination center, where she queued up for blood tests, urine tests, internal organs tests, and an X-ray-like film was taken.When taking X-rays, she still needs to be immersed in water to change back to a marine form, so the film is also marine: in the perspective view of the black colloid bone, her upper body is the same as a human female, but from Starting from the chest down, there is only one spine and a complete tailbone.There is another piece in the middle of the tailbone, which seems to have cartilage tissue.

She took a sneak peek at another Ocean Race who had finished filming next to him. His film was different from hers. From the end of the spine to the tail of the fish, there was a complete line of thorny bones.

An hour later, the manager looked at the potionist handing over the test results, and whispered: "Miss Fanli...it's strange. We can't find out your order and family. We only know that you are a marine clan of Bonefish. Moreover, we can't find out. Send out information about the person who exchanged your soul with... No, you have obviously taken the soul forbidden drug."

"Can you find the information exchanged by the soul?!"

"I couldn't find it before. The police wanted to investigate and could only torture a confession. Now it's different. The arcane ritual is scanned and you can see at a glance what forbidden drugs have been taken. Academician Su Yi's contribution is amazing." The manager looked at her suspiciously. "So... what advanced potion are you taking? Impossible, your consumption level..."

It's more than an advanced potion, it's the superman potion created by your amazing academician Su Yi!

Fan Li's whole body is not good.In other words, if the police also gave her such a test, they could really find out that she had taken potions.

She kept hinting in her heart that she should calm down. Isn't this already looking for a solution? Take your time, take your time, everything will get better...

"Don't talk about the soul potion. You can't even find out the eye and science. There is a problem with the medical equipment."

"Those first-rate doctors who have worked in various hospitals in Luoya for their dreams finally chose our 40,000 floating annual salary and gave up their dreams. Perhaps dreams will make people better at medical skills, who knows."

Fanli twitched her mouth: "Why can't I find it out then?"

"I don't know this. You can go to Luoya Hospital for a physical examination. But the order and department are not very important. After all, we are not a medical examination center." He pushed the report to Fanli, "You only know this information. Enough: For your physique, the success rate of the first dose is 92%, the second is 83%, and the third is 69%. Congratulations, your physique is very good, and the overall probability of success is more than half."

"One...half? Is it still called physique?"

"Of course, if you come a few years later, it may be less than half."

"Why are there three times?"

"Racial promotion is a very difficult and long process. It has to be changed for you all at once. The pain may have tortured you to death." At this point, the manager took out three bottles of potions of different sizes and held them up. Put the largest, blue liquid medicine bottle, "every time you drink it will have a different effect. The first time you take the medicine, the degree of pain is the shallowest, and the period of discomfort is longer. You will first have the five senses of the hunter, but The shape will not change."

Then, he held up the medium-sized medicine bottle with red liquid: "The second dose was two months after the first dose, and the pain and discomfort cycle were in the middle. After this time, your central nervous system The nerve will undergo about 45% transformation, and then it will have the physical energy, speed and strength of the hunter."

Finally, he held up the medicine bottle with only the fingernail cap and filled with thick black liquid: "The third dose is one month after the second dose. The pain is the strongest, the time is the shortest, and the failure rate is the highest. Once successful, from From the appearance to nerves, bones, life length, arcane upper limit, and the entire life system, it will become a 100% hunter. How, our design still considers the mood of the customer. We will first suppress the characteristics of the hunter, so as not to Customers are criticized in life."

"Then every time I fail, will I die?"

"No matter which time it fails, the'Heart of Styx' will have organic components that counteract the flesh, leaving only calcium and phosphorus in the bones."

Fanli shuddered: "Since the success rate for the first time is so high, how can no one stop it as the first step?"

"It’s only halfway through, and within half a year, you’ll get serious illnesses of various genetic disorders. It may be more uncomfortable than just dying. Besides, there is no hunter’s lifespan and strength, just the five senses of the hunter. What's the point? This is not in line with the evolutionary laws of nature. The creature with the longest teeth cannot be herbivorous, can it?"

Fan Li finally learned that this manager is essentially a salesman.She thought for a while and said, "Sorry, I'm still a little confused. Go back and think about it."

"No problem, you should consider it carefully and don't make a hasty decision."

Fanli went back and struggled for a long time, feeling that the price of promotion was too great.Died in the ocean before 2271, how miserable it sounds.

Forget it, let's travel with Dangdang first.

***4.3 Small Theater***

Fanli: "There is a rumor that 4.3 is to buy shares. Although the official certification is not to buy shares, what do you think of the phenomenon of buying shares?"

Xitian: "If you buy stocks, Xinghai won't lose money. Boycott buying stocks!"

Ye Jia: "My little mermaid, come buy the teacher's stock (wink)."

Su Shiye: "Let me play a few more times, I still hope it is to buy stocks. But stepmother loves to refrigerate me."

Shining: "Refrigerated coconut is delicious..."

Su Shiye: "..."
