Survival on the Internet: A Bizarre Start at Sea

"so……"

"I need to prepare some gifts that represent Atlantis, or at least items that show sincerity."

"It wouldn't be appropriate to go empty-handed."

Behemoth Krasin laughed.

"A gift..."

"That's easy."

She reached out and grabbed at the air.

A ball of pinkish-blue light, like condensed dream dust, appeared in her palm.

Inside the ball of light, it seemed as if countless tiny stars were flowing and emanating an aura of tranquility, profundity, and endless change.

"This is the 'Seed of Dreams' that I was able to gather using Lilia's 'Dream Dust'."

"It contains a fragment of the rules of the 'Dream' power, as well as the coordinates of Atlantis."

"Planting it in a suitable place can slowly change the surrounding environment, making it closer to the characteristics of a 'dream'."

"And they can establish contact with the present-day Atlantis, so they won't go to the wrong place."

"This thing should be somewhat interesting to that little girl, Sephiria."

"It can help stabilize the mental environment within Hydeland and soothe the emotions of her people."

"As a gift to mark our first meeting, it's quite substantial."

Su Zhisu carefully took the ball of pinkish-blue light.

The ball of light felt cool to the touch, and seemed to pulsate slightly as if it were alive.

Seeds of Dreams (A Gift from Atlantis)

[Quality]: Purple Epic

[Type]: Strange and bizarre items

【Additional 1】: Dream Nourishment: After planting, it slowly changes the surrounding spiritual environment (the range depends on the user's strength), making it closer to the dream characteristics of "tranquility", "peace", and "order", and slightly improving the recovery speed and stability of the spirit and sanity of the creatures within the range.

【Additional 2】: Dream Link: Allows you to establish a connection with Atlantis, which exists in the space between dreams and reality.

[Information]: A gift personally crafted by the great being Behemoth Krasin and presented to Queen Sephiria of Hydeland, representing the friendship of Atlantis.

"Thank you, sister."

Su Zhisu carefully put it away.

"but……"

Beamon Krasin blinked again.

"Gifts alone may not be enough."

"Although I haven't met Sephiria many times, I can tell that she's a very practical person."

"Besides gifts, if you want to get help, you'd better demonstrate some 'value'."

"For example... what can you bring to Hydeland, or what problems can you solve for them that they can't solve themselves?"

Su Zhisu seemed to be deep in thought.

"value……"

"I am now a second-tier bizarre alchemist, specializing in alchemical transformations..."

"A second-tier alchemist might not be anything special in Hydeland, but alchemical mutation..."

"and……"

He thought of the abandoned alchemy workshop and the "First Work" that blocked his way.

"If, during my meeting with the Queen, I were to request permission to explore the 'Puppet Grip' workshop, or to assist in the search for Liliana Thea..."

"This skill might also be a starting point."

"But the prerequisite is that I need more leverage, or... more concrete clues."

Beamon Krasin gave a small yawn.

"That's your own business, Xiao Su Su."

"Sister, this is all I can do to help you."

"You have to walk the rest of the road yourself."

She hugged the green squid plush toy, leaned back slightly, and rested her head on Su Zhisu's shoulder.

The light in her emerald pupils seemed to have dimmed slightly, carrying a hint of weariness.

"Maintaining this city, concealing your whereabouts, and also keeping an eye on all the messy things happening outside..."

"Sister, I'm tired."

"I need to sleep for a while..."

Her voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.

The petite green figure gradually became transparent and blurred, eventually turning into specks of green light dust that dissipated into the air.

Only the soft, green squid doll fell with a "plop" onto the platform beside the moon well.

Lilia stepped forward, carefully picked up the doll, and hugged it to her chest.

"My older sister has gone to sleep again..."

She said softly.

Su Zhisu nodded silently.

He could sense that although his sister's appearance this time seemed relaxed, it actually took a lot of effort.

The preservation of Atlantis, the vigilance against external dangers, and the "Seed of Dreams" that he was gathering...

These were all burdens for her.

"Let your sister get some rest."

He stood up.

"Lilia, take me to meet Aunt Hydra and Uncle Nautilus."

"I need to know their current situation, and... the recent situation in Atlantis."

"good!"

Lilia hugged the doll and nodded vigorously.

The two left the temple and headed towards the House of Life's Nest.

Along the way, Su Zhisu carefully observed the city.

On the streets, the residents seemed to move more smoothly than before.

Occasionally, you can see a few residents having simple conversations. Although their language is unclear, at least there is interaction, which adds a bit of life to Atlantis.

Some of the damaged parts of the building's exterior walls showed signs of initial repair.

The dreamlike dust radiance flowing in the air seemed more stable and brighter.

"The city is slowly recovering..."

Su Zhisu felt somewhat relieved.

Arriving at the Institute of Life's Nest.

The building still exudes a strong sense of life.

In the courtyard, the strange plants grew even more luxuriantly, some even blooming with flowers that emitted a faint glow.

Hydra stood before a huge plant with leaves as clear as crystal, gently touching the leaves with his fingers and feeling the life flowing within them.

Hearing footsteps, she turned around.

The once frail head of the Life Nest Academy now looked much better.

Her long, dark blue hair cascaded smoothly over her shoulders, and her eyes regained their sparkle.

"Your Excellency, the Envoy."

Hydra bowed slightly.

"You're back."

"Aunt Hydra, you look much better."

Su Zhisu stepped forward.

"Thanks to Lord Krasin and Lilia's care, and the nourishment of the city itself."

Hydra smiled.

"My body has mostly recovered, and I am now able to resume my daily work at the Institute of Life Weaving."

"But what about Lord Nautilus..."

She looked into the depths of the Weaving Nest Courtyard.

"Its body is now unharmed, and its soul fire is being deeply nourished by Atlantis, so it will take time to awaken."

Su Zhisu nodded.

"Take me to see it."

The three of them arrived at a quiet room deep within the Weaving Nest Courtyard.

In the center of the quiet room, a complex alchemical array slowly began to operate.

At the center of the magic circle, a gentle flame of soul fire floated.

The flames burned steadily, emitting a reassuring aura.

The soul of Nautilus is sleeping and recovering within it.

"His condition is indeed very stable."

Su Zhisu sensed it for a moment and felt relieved.

"Aunt Hydran, I've returned this time to prepare for an official visit to Hydran..."
