What's wrong with me, a mage, loving to farm?

Chapter 390. Silver Shell Zhuhai Development Mission

When Kroya stood on the stage, she really felt that either she had gone mad or something was wrong with the world—the supreme treasure of the phantom world, the ethereal god of the mermaid race, was actually singing and dancing!

He had experienced many embarrassing things and seen many grand scenes, but this was the first time he had ever sung along with the virtual god on stage.

The people around them, some standing on the ground and some flying in the sky, cheered to the tune and frantically waved the glowing coral branches that had appeared out of nowhere in their hands.

"It sounds great! It sounds great!"

"Atlantis!"

"Don't stop!"

No one knows what Star Entertainment did to promote "Atlantis," but the area covered by the surrounding sea of ​​stars is getting wider and wider, and is even gradually covering the entire Wanyou Avenue.

There are advertisements for "Atlantis Band" everywhere.

At first, Chloe was a little unaccustomed to it, but as she sang, she felt that it was actually quite good.

There were even some enthusiastic men and women nearby staring at him with passionate eyes, but since they didn't know his name, they could only shout:

"The newcomer sings really well!"

"I want to see him act in Star Entertainment!"

"Can he say that to me? You mean, 'Woman, you've caught my attention!'"

"Can men do it too?!"

As Kroya listened to these sounds, she silently turned her head and glanced at Treden, who was hiding in the corner and playing the drum with drumsticks. The mermaid prince, who was now a young man, immediately revealed a fawning smile.

But thinking about it carefully... it seems that the words still came from his side. The thought of this fact made him feel an uncontrollable surge of magic power within him.

He tried to clear his mind of the jumbled thoughts and focused on immersing himself in the laws along with the song of the illusory god.

The songs of the ethereal gods contain laws. Although the merfolk were not His companions at the beginning, He spent so much time with them that He naturally learned their songs.

His understanding of the Mermaid Song was even deeper than that of any mermaid, so when He led the singing, it was as if the boundless ocean had replaced the starlight.

It was a pure, vibrant, azure ocean.

"Um?"

Kroya was slightly taken aback.

He looked up at the crystal dome of the primordial star ring, and in the boundless starry sky, he saw tiny glimmers of light emerging from the truly deep cosmos.

This process is similar to how Treden pulled the island of the sunflower ancestor from the seabed of Atlantis.

The cheers from the surrounding crowd grew even louder.

He also saw the priest appear not far away, staring straight at the sky with a somewhat helpless expression on his face.

The priest stared at the phantom god for a while, then said to Chloe:

"They want to reclaim their ancestral land."

"The deep sea in the starry sky..."

Only Kroa could hear the voice, and after speaking, He disappeared.

Only the Atlantis band's voice echoed across half of the Creation Star Ring, the flowing starlight converging into diamonds, surging like a river.

Kroa immediately understood; it turned out that they wanted to summon the former plane of existence through this method.

……

Seven days later.

After singing for seven consecutive days, Chloe felt a little dizzy and lightheaded.

He took the water Treden offered, took a sip, and finally came to his senses, looking at the ethereal goddess Qi Ya: "When I left, you said it would be a long time before you came to the Astral Plane. How come you're out so suddenly?"

"Because we need to get our module back."

"When we first entered the Zemurian continent, we buried many planes in the deep sea. Now, if we want to enter the Astral Plane, we need to reclaim those planes."

"Isn't this a perfect coincidence, Mr. Trailblazer?"

Qi Ya pointed to the sky: "The first star is the Silver Shell Pearl Sea. I have prepared the necessary information and contracts for the development. You can sign them now and enter immediately."

His swift and decisive manner surprised Chloe: "So fast?"

Mihai, who was sitting behind the illusory god and playing the harmonica, said helplessly, "The Silver Shell Pearl Sea contains the food we need, as well as our most basic pearl magic system."

"The sea snails you raised in captivity were the lowest grade of them."

Kroya glanced at the contract on the table, then at the Pearl Star, which was faintly shimmering in the sky and surrounded by a shell-shaped ring of stars, and seemed to be deep in thought.

"How come all our technology relies on archaeology?"

"If we keep doing this archaeology, will we unearth some kind of celestial spirit or creator?"

"ha."

Kia was amused by Kroya: "The deep sea can only hold so much; it can't possibly contain anything beyond the Protoss and the Creator."

He picked up the microphone and shook it slightly.

"I buried my past in the deepest part of the astral sea, in the deepest part of my imagination, and now I long for the wonderful future that music can bring... I am greedy, even though I am already a treasure, I still want to change."

"Problems will inevitably arise if things don't change; even the best programs will develop flawed fallacies as times change."

"Are you right?"

Kroya, whose expression remained unchanged despite being stared at by the Arcana, said, "It's alright. I'm learning. The Arcana's program isn't entirely without room for modification."

Qi Ya smiled even more happily: "Then let's sign this contract. My good friend's apprentice, this is a gift for you."

"Mermaids don't like having too much real contact with the outside world. The stage and singing are a way to prevent it. What people can see is just what we want to be seen under the glamorous spotlight."

"So there's something I need to ask you."

Kroa would certainly agree, recalling how much convenience the Merfolk's seas provided him and how much support the Merfolk gave him back in the Zemurian continent.

That alone is enough for him to manage the merfolk's affairs.

Besides, they did indeed offer benefits—the gains from the development were their resources.

The contract was simple: the merfolk would entrust all current and future exploration tasks to Kroya, and the resources and output would be split 50/50.

This is a very good ratio.

After chatting with the Void God for a while, he took the contract, turned around and left, and went to the Astral Council to submit the contract for review.

In just half a day, the development permit for "Silver Shell Pearl Sea" and all the procedures for that dimension were completed. This caused quite a stir, and many people inquired about and contacted him.

Although the glory of the merfolk was a thousand years ago, a thousand years is just a nap for some immortal beings, and they still remember the special nature of the merfolk.

If the Void God hadn't directly assigned this task to Kroya, many people would have wanted to take on this pioneering work, since it was obvious that they could make money from it.

Cloa ignored all of this.

He returned to his island of Aquila and then convened a meeting of the apprentices who had come to the Astral Plane.

"This is the first pioneering task I'm giving you."

A silver ocean immediately appeared on the huge screen. No, to be precise, the entire plane was silver. The water seemed to be divided into different layers, so much so that some places looked like there was no water at all.

"Silver Shell Pearl Sea".

"The mermaid race's most basic shell magic and most of their food come from here. There are seven levels in total, each with its own independent space and water flow."

He pointed to the screen: "There won't be too much danger in the first five levels. At most, some shellfish will react and attack you."

"But the shellfish in the last two layers have intelligence. The sixth layer has level twelve magical beasts, and the seventh layer even has legendary star-patterned shells."

"My task for you is to explore and insert the spatial anchors I've prepared for you into the first five levels, and then golems will modify those areas."

"If you are able to obtain something during the exploration, hand over 80 percent of it, and the rest is your own harvest."

"Here's the information inside; take a look for yourselves."

The tower spirit immediately distributed all the materials, and the apprentices all read them carefully, exchanging ideas from time to time.

About half an hour later, Kroya tapped the table, and the apprentices immediately looked over to see a harp-shaped pendant in their teacher's hand.

The pendant looked very simple and unadorned; it was carved from wood, and there were even some tiny green buds growing on its surface.

【Gopher Wood Harp (Initial Program)】

[A special magical plant engraved with the "Poem of the Rainbow" can influence the laws of the surrounding world for a short or long time when it releases its power. The effect varies depending on the laws engraved.]

[Current inscription: Rainbow Grass Paradise (After activation, the world will provide protection for your paradise; while walking within the paradise, you will not be harmed by the world itself.)]

"You all hold onto these pendants carefully."

"Activate it if you encounter danger. Each pendant can be used five times. If all the uses are used up... then temporarily return to normal."

"You have one day to prepare. We will set off tomorrow to explore the new land."

After he finished speaking, he waved to his apprentices.

He didn't need to worry about the rest. The apprentices would naturally team up, and with the magical artifacts they had obtained, the danger would be very, very small.

After the apprentices left, he intended to sit down and rest for a while.

But Tarling suddenly said, "Master, the inhabitants of Han Reef Island wish to see you, and Rob is there too."

Kroya was slightly taken aback, already knowing what they wanted to do.

He said helplessly, "Then let's go."

"OK."

After a short wait, Robert led in several elderly people with white hair.

He gazed at the old man who had once driven him through the northern border of the Kingdom of Norland to reach the Island of Han Reef.

Back then, he was a shrewd and capable middle-aged man, but now he has white hair. Although he takes good care of himself and his back is straight, time has left an indelible mark.

Especially compared to Kroya's increasingly handsome face and tall figure, the contrast is quite striking.

"Actually, I wanted you to live a comfortable life in my territory."

"Even death cannot force you to leave."

Rob smiled and said, "Of course I know what you've done for us, Master, but we're not that old. With those sunflower oils, our bodies are no worse than those of young people."

"There's no reason for us to hide in the background and retire."

As he spoke, he showed off his bulging muscles, which were as thick and robust as the roots of an old tree.

It's hard to imagine what kind of terrifying muscular physique lies beneath this simple cloth outfit.

"And what about you?" Kroya looked at the others. The symphony had recorded everything, and he knew the names of these old people and what they had done.

Wasn't one of them the one who dug the hole and planted sunflowers for him back then?

"That's what we think too."

The elderly men said in unison, "Master, we can still expand; you can't favor one over the other!"

Hmm... it's clear that basic education on Hanjiao Island is progressing quite well.

"Oh well."

"Since you want to go, I have no reason to stop you."

"But you've been long-time residents of Hanjiao Island for a while... so let's take one more."

He took out two harp pendants that were slightly different from each other.

"Robert, you'll be in charge of organizing it. Determine how many people want to go on the expedition and submit the list to the Tower Spirit by tonight, then collect the pendant."

"Yes, sir!"

Rob felt a rare surge of joy in his long-dormant heart. He straightened his back, turned and left, just like when he first arrived at Hanjiao Island, full of vigor and ambition.

As Kroya watched them leave, he muttered to himself, "I wonder what those apprentices' expressions would be if they saw their fathers and grandfathers involved."

"It's quite interesting."

"Never mind, I'd better go and get ready first."

He couldn't wait any longer and got up to go to the teleportation room located at the dock. He entered the coordinates into it, and immediately a star was lit up, and a portal made of silver water appeared.

He stepped inside, and before him appeared a silver sea—there was no land, everything was made of water elements. He stood at the very top of the ocean and looked down. The deep sea was divided into seven layers, with many shellfish and magical beasts swimming around.

For over a thousand years, the monsters here have not been managed by the merfolk. They have even formed some rudimentary tribes, where shellfish are cultivated, algae and small fish are raised, and magic is used.

"How about I also come and take a look, disguised as someone else?"

After considering for a moment, Kroya casually sketched out patterns of magic, and blue light immediately shone down from the sky, forming a base surrounded by rainbow grass around him.

When you're exploring, you always need a safe place to go.

After creating the safe point, he transformed his spiritual power into a sword made of rainbow light, which plunged directly into the deep sea below the fifth level. The powerful legendary magic immediately intimidated the monsters inside.

"Don't cause trouble!"

His mental fluctuations echoed in the deep sea.

But to his surprise, he had only intended to intimidate them and leave, but he discovered some... strange thirsty bioluminescent algae in the silver sea area of ​​the sixth level.

Level 12!
