I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 28: Strange "Illusion" Fruit

Fortunately, in order to prevent encountering mermaids at the beach, Chloe had already carried a crystal beaker containing forty-six drops of water essence with him.

He took it out directly and said with a smile:
"This is what I refined, Master, you can take a look."

The purest blue essence sparkled in the moonlight, instantly attracting the mermaid's full attention.

The mermaid almost trembled as she came to Cloya, her eyes full of intoxication as she looked at the small crystal beaker.

"So beautiful, it's been three hundred years..."

"Such pure essence of Mercury... Goddess!!!"

She stretched out her hand and gently touched the beaker, and the poor beaker immediately shattered into invisible dust. The drops of water essence floated under her magic.

Like a jewel in the blue sea.

The mermaid's face showed a very abnormal blush, and there was even some steam coming out of her head. She looked like she was about to faint from excitement.

But she was still a great wizard after all, so she quickly calmed down and nodded to Cloya with a friendly expression:

"I will fulfill my promise to you. From Hanjiao Island to all areas that your monsters and people can reach, we mermaids will protect them.

There will be no capsizing, no shipwreck.

You can freely use the natural resources in the sea as you wish, as long as you can get them!"

After saying this, she couldn't wait to jump into the water with the essence of water. With a slight sway of her tail, she disappeared into the rippling green waves.

As quickly as it came, it can go as quickly as it came.

He didn't even say when he would find Cloya again to continue refining the essence of water.

Croa could only shake his head. Fortunately, he had anticipated and left some. The mermaid seemed very excited that he had refined forty-six drops.

There is absolutely no intention of launching an attack to hold someone accountable.

That means he can continue to cooperate with the mermaids in the future, which is a windfall!

Also, satisfying the mermaid's request is a good thing.

He was relieved. If he had to make enemies with these guys at the seaside, it would be very troublesome even with the support of the Mage Association.

He thought about it for a while, then waved to the dolphin in the distance: "Come here, let me see what you stole."

Then two dolphins swam over.

Their bodies were trembling slightly, obviously frightened by the sudden appearance of the mermaid - mermaids are natural kings of the ocean, and to be honest, the sea dolphins are almost the same as the goldfish they raise.

Not to mention that the ocean is their territory in a sense, and goldfish are stealing things on their own territory...

The dolphin lowered its head and made a weak "chirp".

The meaning seemed to be that he was sorry for causing trouble for Chloe.

Croa frowned and lectured, “You should be careful. These fruits that grow in the sea and have obvious magical powers must have guardians.

Otherwise, why wasn't it picked?

This time, she probably sensed some of my magic power on you and didn't attack you directly. You won't be so lucky next time you face other guys."

It is true that the dolphins meant well, but he had seen too many historical lessons of good intentions leading to bad results.

This is because the other party had a contract with Croa, so they did not attack them, and it also clearly stated that only naturally grown resources can be used at will.

Isn't this a hint?

Implying that there are some things they specially cultivated that cannot be touched.

He must teach these two dolphins a lesson, otherwise if anything happens to them in the future, they will definitely die.

I spent so many magic crystals to buy this magical beast, I can't let it die just like this, otherwise it would be a huge loss.

Of course, he was also worried about bringing disaster upon himself.

At present, his strength is not very strong, and he can't stand too many troubles. Cautious development is the kingly way. If these two guys really provoke Kloya, he will not be able to deal with them...

To be honest, Croix would definitely throw them away at the speed of light. After all, he had just bought them, so how could he have any feelings for them?
"Chirp~"

The two dolphins listened to Croa's words very carefully, nodded frequently, and finally waited until the latter finished speaking before they used water jets to carry the picked fruits in front of Croa.

The fruit is in the shape of a crescent moon, translucent, and seems to be rippling with soft silver moonlight. It is dreamy and exudes a strange magic.

This moonlight even affected the surrounding space.

It seemed as if a mysterious shadow was echoing in it.

"..."

"This power is so familiar, I seem to have seen it just now."

He squinted his eyes and stroked the fruit with his fingers. It felt like warm jade and did not look like an edible fruit at all.

"Where have I seen you before..."

He thought carefully about where he had seen it before, and finally his eyes suddenly widened.

I immediately thought of it in my mind - yes, I had seen it in the Seven Stars Divine Law Array just now.

It is the "illusion" of the third place in time and space.

Its magical fluctuations are very similar to the "Moon Fantasy Sand" that he used to replace the Fantasy Crystal. It can even be said that it is a superior substitute for the former.

The illusion is this kind of pale silver light that is somewhat similar to moonlight. Just by looking at it, people can feel that an illusion is emerging.

"You guys really stole something incredible this time..."

He smiled bitterly. To be honest, if he had not finished refining the essence of water this time, the mermaid would have definitely killed him.

But is there a vein of phantom stone over there?

Can we let the sea dolphin steal again...

As soon as this thought arose in his mind, he immediately and decisively suppressed it - this kind of greed is absolutely unacceptable, otherwise it will harm himself.

After calming down, he stared at the crescent-shaped fruit in his hand, which was only the size of a palm. There was no way he could eat it. He didn't want to be like Shennong.

Who knows what the consequences will be after eating this unknown magic plant fruit, so I'd better leave it aside for now and ask the mermaid indirectly when I see her next time.

It doesn't matter if you take a look.

He immediately activated the Astral Body Imprinting Technique, and this time what came into view was a waning moon wrapped in light silver threads.

It stayed there quietly, emitting a light that made Kloya's consciousness dizzy. His mental strength was like oil meeting fire, and it was rapidly consumed.

In just a few seconds, all the mental energy of Kloya, a second-level mage who practiced the Scarlet Song Meditation Method, was exhausted.

His face turned pale in an instant, his body shook and he fell down involuntarily.

"Chirp!?"

The dolphins sensed that Croa was feeling unwell and quickly jumped up to support him, preventing him from falling.

"Thank you."

Cloya paused for a moment, grabbed the thirsty sea fluorescent algae and started sucking them hard. When they were about to escape, he finally recovered.

He took a few deep breaths and looked at the fruit in his hand. There was no fear on his face, but rather an obvious eagerness to try.

Because... he felt that his mental strength seemed to have increased a little bit. Although it was only a little bit, it definitely raised the upper limit.

You have to know that his mental power is much stronger than that of ordinary mages due to time travel, soul fusion, and the Crimson Song Meditation Method. The meditation methods and techniques to train mental power are almost top secret.

But the result?

Just one look at the fruit and the astral spirit body suddenly grew!
