"You seem distracted. What are you thinking about?" Jin suddenly asked.
Fu Long thought for a moment and said, "I have a feeling that something bad is going to happen, but I don't know what will happen for the time being."
"Then don't overthink it. Some things can be prevented in advance, but some things are better left unattended after they happen. Otherwise, things that are easy to control may become uncontrollable."
Fu Long simply nodded. "Since you put it that way, what else can I say? Chairman Netero, it's not that I don't want to save you, I'm just powerless. I can let the rest go, but the Ant King is indeed quite monstrous."
Let's continue the repair work here.
For ten consecutive days, the water level dropped, and many buildings were submerged.
On the eleventh day of restoration, the Pasla royal residence was completely submerged, and people were able to enter the palace.
This is the key point. Outside the royal city of Passra, everyone has gathered and is ready to embark on their adventure.
Chapter 184 New Abilities
The architecture in Pasla is quite distinctive, reflecting the fact that it serves as a hub for cultural exchange, resulting in a diverse range of architectural styles.
Several large pillars stand outside the palace, supporting a long corridor, behind which lies the main gate of the palace.
Outside the gate, at intervals, there is a stone pier on each side, large enough for a person to stand on.
That's where the guards are stationed.
It is estimated that in the past, there would be a guard standing on each of these mounds, displaying the majesty of the palace.
Walking further in, the first room is the front hall, where ministers rested when they held meetings. This is not the main hall yet.
The wooden tables and chairs here are already rotten beyond recognition, but the surrounding pillars are quite valuable for research.
Therefore, the carvings on it record many things.
This was also a way of recording things in the past, where important events were carved out and preserved as permanent records.
Finch led the team to clean up the place. Cleaning the inside was more troublesome than cleaning the outside, and some small details could not be done carelessly.
Fu Long had nothing else to do, so he wandered around and occasionally looked at the records above.
Soon, Fu Long circled around to a stone wall in front of him. There were no other records on the stone wall, only a map.
However, when Fu Long saw this map, his eyes widened.
This is actually a very complete regional map, recording all the currently known areas.
"Jin, take a look at this map."
Fu Long called out to Jin on the other side, and Jin quickly came over. After glancing at the map, he said, "Oh, this is an ancient map."
"Could Pascal have accurately mapped such a complete map in that era?" Fu Long asked.
Jin stroked his chin thoughtfully for a moment and said, "That is indeed a problem. It seems that Pasla was not simple back then either."
Fu Long nodded in agreement. Even if this place was a crossroads of ten countries, it should only contain maps of the surrounding ten countries. How could there be a world-class map here?
They were unable to cross the surrounding seas at the time, so it was impossible for them to explore other continents.
Jin stared at the map for a long time, and finally said softly, "Indeed, he must have been here before."
"Hmm?" Fu Long looked at Jin, wondering who he was talking about.
Jin simply shook his head and said nothing more.
Fu Long didn't ask any more questions; some things were Jin's secrets.
After spending half a day cleaning up and taking precautions, the group continued walking into the palace.
After passing the front hall, the main hall is just behind.
The palace here isn't very big. It consists of a front hall, a middle hall, and a few more rear palaces. It doesn't have thousands of rooms.
When they arrived at the main hall, they all stopped in their tracks.
At the entrance of the main hall, they saw two suits of armor, with skeletons inside, indicating that they had been submerged in the water for a long time.
The reason it didn't float up was because the armor was too heavy, and also because it had become one with the seaweed underwater after being submerged for so long.
“This is quite a piece of equipment; we must protect it well.” Jin turned to look at Finch, who gave him an OK sign. Several professionals went up and slowly began repairing the armor.
The others followed Jin and continued walking inside.
As soon as they entered the hall, everyone stopped in their tracks once again.
The hall felt a bit damp, which is normal, given that it had been submerged in water for a long time.
But that's not the point. The point is that on the throne above, there was actually a tall skeleton sitting.
In the skeleton's right hand, it holds a golden scepter symbolizing imperial power, and it wears a crown.
His left hand rested flat on the wide armrest of the chair, and in his left hand was a completely translucent sphere.
The sphere emitted a soft glow.
"We're late," Jin said.
Fu Long almost fell over. "From what you're saying, if we had come earlier, there might have been a chance to save this skeleton?"
Just as he was thinking this, a voice suddenly rang in Fu Long's mind.
"Ding, hidden mission completed, first site protection mission, reward: one gold coin."
Well, just over ten days ago, I was lamenting that slot machines hadn't been active lately, and then this one popped up on its own.
By the way, what brings you here at this time?
Although Fu Long couldn't figure it out, seeing everyone heading forward to explore the skeleton, he saw an opportunity to draw a good item.
"Slot machine, start it."
The three squares began to rotate continuously.
Willow-leaf Vase, a blending-specific system, with a blending rate of 0%.
Uh, what the heck? Weren't the previous special traits all at 50%? They were increased when Pig Brother appeared.
How did it become zero percent again?
This is a new low, but the question is, what are you trying to do by giving me such a low percentage?
Read the description carefully.
The willow branch and the vase, guided by the thoughts of oneself or others, form pure nectar within the vase.
Sprinkling dew onto people or objects with willow branches can completely repair items and restore a dying person to their original state.
Fu Long's eyes widened in shock. Good heavens, if that's the case, this ability seems to be a bit bugged.
However, upon closer inspection, it turned out that wasn't the case.
First, it is necessary to use the mental power of another person to form the nectar in the vase.
It wasn't specified how much Nen power was required. If a lot is needed, it won't be something that can be easily collected.
Another example is the restoration of a dying person to their original state; this has happened before.
Similar to how the Royal Guard replenished the Ant King's health after he was bombed, allowing him to live for a long time.
If it weren't for the poison, the ant king might have actually survived.
So this is just an enhancement of that ability.
So that's what it is.
"Fu Long, come over here quickly, see if there's anything we can do?" Just then, Jin's voice came over.
Fu Long stepped forward and saw that the people were not looking at the golden scepter in the other person's hand, nor did they pay attention to the golden crown on the other person's head. Instead, they were all looking at the sphere in the other person's left hand.
What is this?
"The recording beads used to be used to record images and sounds were driven by mental power. However, because they have been around for so long, they have become dilapidated and are difficult to activate."
"Damn it, there should be some very important records in here. We have to figure something out," Jin said, while looking at Fu Long again.
Fu Long's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that you already know about the willow bottle I just obtained?
That's impossible, but I don't know why I want to solve it myself?
“Fu Long, your abilities are all very special. Is there any way to help you?” Jin Wo’s eyes were very clear.
Fu Long took a deep breath and said, "There is a way, but there are three things I don't know."
Chapter 185 The Disaster of Pasla
Fu Long decided to help Jin out, since Jin was very strong and would be going to the Dark Continent in the future. Fu Long also wanted to go there, but no matter how he went, he would inevitably get involved with Jin in the future.
So Fu Long took out the Willow Purifying Bottle, which emitted a pure light as soon as it came out.
All eyes were focused on the vase.
"What is this? It looks very powerful," Jin asked, stroking his chin.
“By pouring thought into the willow-wood vase like water into a ritual vessel, a drop of water called nectar can be formed, which can repair objects and heal people.”
"Oh, that's a pretty good ability. When I developed the Archangel's Breath before, it could only heal people, not repair objects." The golden eyes gleamed; this was a good thing.
"However, as I said, there are three things I don't know. First, I don't know how much mental energy it will take to turn into nectar; second, I don't know how much nectar it will take to repair this image-recording bead; and third, even if it can be repaired, I don't know to what extent it can be repaired."
Jin said "Oh," and looked at Fu Long, then said, "Is that so? We can give it a try. If it works, I'll try it and see how much nectar we can gather."
After saying that, Jin immediately got to work. He had done the Water Vision Technique before. He channeled his mental energy into the clean bottle through his hands. Fu Long could feel the clean bottle absorbing the mental energy and gradually producing nectar.
However, this speed was really too slow. Jin's telekinesis was very strong. More than an hour passed, and Jin finally let out a long sigh.
"Amazing, it felt like the Nen was sucked in and then disappeared." Jin released his hands and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Fu Long shuddered. This time, the slot machine had produced a huge Nen consumer. Even with Jin's strength, an hour's worth of Nen output had only produced a single drop of nectar.
Moreover, Fu Long could sense that although Jin hadn't used his full strength, the amount of mental energy he had generated in that hour was almost equivalent to all of his own mental energy.
Even if you squeeze yourself dry, you can only get one drop of nectar. What kind of willow-leaf vase is this? It's clearly a death trap!
Fortunately, even if all mental energy is used up, at most you will just be unconscious, not dead, but it will still be quite uncomfortable.
It's estimated that even with the arrival of someone like Finch or Locke, it would take two people to accumulate just one drop of nectar.
