An infinite journey starting from paradise

Lin Shangren scratched his head and said, "It's all about adapting to local conditions. Compared to the slavery of that world, feudal autocracy is considered an advanced system. Being a king in a Western fantasy world wouldn't be quite interesting, would it?"

"Because it's legal and reasonable to have a harem?" Hehuan asked back.

"What a joke! When will the law be able to restrain me?" Lin Shangren asked back calmly.

"As long as you're happy," He Huan said, "So why did she appear in this world? And what are you going to do with her?"

As he spoke, Hehuan glanced at Mousse's body. She was naked, her lower tentacles covering her private parts like a skirt, but her upper body was completely exposed. Her breasts were perky, with suction-cup-like tips. Below them were two rows of smaller, more octopus-like suction cups, also resembling nipples. It looked strange and sensual.

More importantly, her lower abdomen was translucent, so her stomach and other digestive organs couldn't be seen, but her uterus and birth canal were visible. The translucent birth canal twisted and turned, yet looked incredibly smooth and tight. Perhaps the philanthropic Lin Shangren would be interested in her.

He Huan retracted her gaze and said solemnly to Lin Shangren, "Let me make it clear first, if you want me to accept her... it's a bit difficult right now... Forget about sleeping together."

"Huh? No... Has the image of me in your mind been shattered like this?"

[People can, at least try. Hehe~]

Ignoring Fululu's instigation, Lin Shangren spoke directly, "This girl's name is Mousse. Is she supposed to be... my guide? Anyway, for now, I need her to help me understand the basics of that world. I'll just have her stay by my side for now."

in addition……"

"in addition?"

"Also, I have to go out for a bit, so the watermelon-punching game might have to be postponed for a while. Unless there are any unforeseen complications, I won't be gone for long. Now, I'll leave you guys here for now."

As he spoke, Lin Shangren grabbed Mousse with his levitation ring and teleported her towards the sea.

Chapter 416: Miss Suzuki Wants a Romantic Encounter

Blue sky, blue sea and white sand.

On the beach of a small island in Okinawa, Mao Lilan looked into the distance at the place where the sea and the sky meet, but her fingers hooked into the blue bikini that was digging into her buttocks, adjusting the position of her swimming trunks.

Behind Mao Lilan, a camera locked onto this scene: the snow-white back, the bulging buttocks that were mostly hugged by the blue swimming trunks, and the pair of slender and firm thighs were all perfectly presented in the lens.

The camera moves down, sliding from Xiaolan's snow-white back to her perky buttocks. Xiaolan's legs are naturally spread apart, and her buttocks bulge out from between her blue bikini. Just looking at her figure that was born naturally, it is hard to imagine that she is still a 17-year-old high school student.

"Click~"

The shutter was pressed and the camera perfectly recorded this charming scene.

Xiaolan was startled and turned around quickly, only to see her best friend Suzuki Sonoko holding a camera and looking at her with a smirk on her face.

"Hehe, I got it!" Yuanzi said proudly.

"Please, Sonoko, where are you taking pictures of?"

"Of course it's the curve of your butt when you adjusted your swimsuit," Sonoko said. "That moment was really impactful."

"Ah? Why are you taking pictures of this kind of thing?" Xiaolan's face turned slightly red.

"Ha, of course you have to record something beautiful when you see it." Yuanzi said as a matter of course.

Xiaolan blushed: "Huh... This kind of thing... Delete it quickly... No, Sonoko, there's something wrong with you. Why have you been teasing me since just now?"

"Because you have been in a bad mood since you came here. So I wanted to tease you and cheer you up. Hey, Xiaolan, is there something that makes you unhappy? Tell me, maybe I can help you solve it." Sonoko said.

Given the financial resources of Suzuki Sonoko's family, there weren't many problems in Japan that couldn't be solved. However, she couldn't solve the Mori family's problems.

Xiaolan didn't want to spoil Yuanzi's fun, so she just shook her head, forced a smile and said, "I'm just a little under the weather. Maybe I'm still a little carsick."

"Is that so? Humph, it's all my sister's fault. We agreed to go to Izu, but we suddenly transferred here. My 'commoner beauty' plan wasted in vain." Having said that, Sonoko sighed.

"What...plan?" Xiaolan didn't understand what Sonoko meant by "commoner beauty".

"That's right, every time we go to the beach, we stay in a fancy hotel or my mansion. 'Ahh, how dare I try to reach for such an unattainable flower?' Those boys who might have approached me would definitely think this and stay away from me.

So, to make sure those boys could pursue me without worry, I planned to book a run-down, ordinary hotel in Izu. But this time, my sister tricked me into going to this island home again. Sonoko explained, looking up at the distant beach. "Oh, I'm going to miss out again! So many handsome guys I haven't met yet."

"I say... Yuanzi... aren't you being too... anxious? Besides, don't you have a crush on Mr. Lin?"

"Ahhh, stop talking about this." Sonoko covered her face with her hands in an exaggerated manner. "It is destined that it will be impossible for me and Master Shangren to be together."

At this point, Sonoko actually developed a sense of sadness, as if she were Juliet in Shakespeare's tragedy. However, judging from her exaggerated performance, she was still far from the quiet and elegant Juliet.

"Impossible?" Xiaolan was a little confused.

Since she didn't know that Lin Shangren was her mother's new boyfriend after the divorce, and she had forgotten that she had once had physical contact with Lin Shangren, and that they were just one step away from "melting in love", Xiaolan still remembered Lin Shangren as the young, promising, handsome and reliable single older brother who perfectly met Sonoko's aesthetic standards. The two of them were also considered a good match, and if Sonoko tried hard, she would have a chance.

"Is it because of age? But Mr. Lin shouldn't be much older than us, right? And don't you, Sonoko, also like older handsome guys?"

"It's not because of this. It's because of family background." Sonoko said helplessly.

"Family background? I remember Mr. Lin seemed to be a wealthy man, and he owns many companies. He and you, Yuanzi, would be a perfect match." Xiaolan still didn't understand what Yuanzi meant.

"It's precisely because Mr. Lin is too capable and has such a strong background that it's impossible! Ahhh, if my elder sister hadn't been engaged to Tomizawa-san so early, maybe I would still have a chance. But now... even if Lord Shangren wanted to marry me, Dad and the others wouldn't agree."

Suzuki Shiro, chairman of the Suzuki Group, has only two daughters, Ayako and Sonoko. Suzuki Ayako was already engaged to Tozawa Yuzo, the third son of the Tozawa Group, forming a marriage between the two families. After Suzuki Ayako married out of the Suzuki family, the inheritance rights fell to Sonoko. Considering the Suzuki family's interests, and to prevent the family line from being interrupted or falling into the hands of another family, the optimal solution was for Sonoko to marry into a family with some ability but no family background. This would preserve the family lineage while also preventing the son-in-law from usurping power. Suzuki Shiro raised Sonoko as a commoner, keeping her away from other young men of the same class to prevent his daughter from being swindled by some ambitious individuals.

The fangs that Lin Shangren casually showed at this time had already made the Suzuki Group feel threatened. Under such circumstances, it was naturally impossible for the Suzuki family to rush to send their daughter who had the inheritance rights to Lin Shangren's bed, allowing him to directly merge the two families and swallow the Suzuki Group from within.

"So, I can only admire Master Shangren. Of course, if he can break through the barriers of his family and marry me like Romeo did, I can accept it. Hehe... hehe..."

Looking at Sonoko, who suddenly turned into a perverted grin, Xiaolan felt a little helpless. Not to mention that the example of Romeo and Juliet is completely inapplicable here, do you really not care about the interests of your own family?

"But... even if there wasn't this reason, I don't think we would have any chance of winning..." Sonoko's mood suddenly became depressed again.

"why?"

"Xiaolan, do you still remember the woman that the monk spoke to at the dinner that day?" Sonoko asked.

"You mean that beautiful older sister in the white dress?" Xiaolan still had a deep impression of Lai Sheng Lei. No man or woman could forget a beauty like her.

"Her name is Lai Sheng Lei... Alas, she is no match at all... Ahhh, forget it, let's not talk about her." Having said that, Sonoko suddenly pressed Xiaolan's buttocks.

"Sonoko?!"

"Hmph, if I had a figure like Xiaolan, my chances of winning would definitely be better. Damn it, we are obviously the same size, why are we not the same size? What's your secret to having big breasts and a big butt, man?" Yuanzi said indignantly while rubbing Xiaolan's butt.

"Stop...stop it...Sonoko."

The two of them started playing around like this.

Since there was no one else on the beach, the two girls played around without restraint. After chasing each other for a while, tearing off their swimsuits, and splashing sea water on each other, Sonoko and Xiaolan lay down on the beach.

"Huh... Alas, the private beach is still boring. My sister and her friends haven't arrived yet. How about we go to the public beach on the other side and play for a while. I heard that there will be a fireworks display soon, so there should be a lot of fun things there." Sonoko said.

"Yeah. Okay."

Xiaolan responded, her hands unconsciously massaging her lower abdomen. She hadn't lied; she had indeed been feeling a little under the weather since arriving at the beach. Or rather, she hadn't been feeling well in the days since soaking in the hot springs at the beach.

That's a bit of a loose translation, but to be more precise, her physical condition was so good the day after "taking a hot spring bath" that she felt a little uncomfortable even after returning to normal. This feeling intensified after arriving at this beach.

"Let's go then. Let's go back to the villa and change clothes."

As she spoke, Sonoko looked down at the leopard print bikini that didn't quite fit her figure.

Sonoko and Xiaolan returned to the villa. When they changed their clothes and were ready to go out, the villa's maid stopped Sonoko.

"Second Miss, it's not safe for the two of you to go out alone. You'd better bring bodyguards with you," said the maid.

"What are you afraid of? Miss Mori next to me is the karate champion of the Kanto region, the kind who can take on a group by herself. And what could possibly happen if we're just strolling around?" Sonoko said nonchalantly. The maid quickly explained, "No...it's like this, Miss. For the past few years, around this time of year, there have been murders on the beach. There's a psychopathic killer who specifically preys on girls with brown hair."

"Eh? Specializing in attacking girls with brown hair?"

"Yes. Three girls have been murdered since the year before last. Their bodies were disemboweled...but the police have no leads at all."

"Huh? A serial killer who commits crimes every year? The police have no clue? Are the local police in Okinawa so weak? Humph, if Lord Naoto were here, he would definitely catch the murderer in minutes!"

Yuanzi was right. With Lin Shangren's strength, it would not be difficult to catch such a criminal. However, Lin Shangren did not have time to catch the serial killer at this time - he had discovered many incredible things at the bottom of the sea.

Chapter 417: Mirage Treasure Ship

In the unfathomable depths of the Okinawa waters, a radiance as brilliant as the sea of ​​stars quietly blooms. As the light spreads, a dreamlike sound wave also spreads.

Accompanied by this dreamlike sound, schools of vibrantly colored fish, as if drawn by invisible threads, danced gracefully around two figures shrouded in the radiance. Some shimmered silver, like shooting stars streaking across the night sky; others shone brilliantly, like rainbows plunging into the deep sea. They nimbly moved between light and shadow, weaving a series of flowing scrolls.

Such a fantastic and magnificent scene is more like an authentic mermaid than a movie about a certain little mermaid.

However, the person in the backflowing brilliant light was not a mermaid, but Lin Shangren and Mousse. After confirming that Mousse was from the continent of Midgard, Lin Shangren prepared to check the nearby sea area first to see if there were any other lives from other worlds that had been teleported here.

Since he was going to dive into the deep sea, Lin Shangren needed to use the ability of the mermaid witch Irene. Lin Shangren himself had never expected that the ability of his dark-skinned, loyal tomboy would be so powerful in the ocean:

Breathing underwater and withstanding high pressures went without saying. Using sound waves to sense the deep-sea environment and control marine life was also fundamental. More importantly, Lin Shangren could now directly replenish his energy through seawater. The vibrant, multicolored light surrounding him was a manifestation of the energy contained within the seawater flowing towards him.

"I am now more like Aquaman than Arthur Curry, that grass fish man." Thinking about it, Lin Shangren wanted to rub a trident for himself and shout that he was the king of the seven seas.

[Even the King of the Sea can only have one Queen. You have a family full of women. You are more powerful than the King of the Sea.]

Fululu continued to complain, while Mousse, who was following Lin Shangren, followed him with a rather attached yet restrained attitude. The energy around Lin Shangren made her feel very warm, but she didn't dare to overstep her bounds with the king before her, so she could only follow Lin Shangren timidly, not daring to cross the line.

"This is quite fun."

Lin Shangren waved his fingers, and the fish swam happily following his movements.

"Unfortunately, fish have low IQs, so we can't communicate with them in a two-way manner. We can only command them to perform simple actions."

[How about trying to call over some dolphins? Dolphins are supposed to be quite intelligent. Also, I heard female dolphins can adjust the shape of their reproductive tracts to achieve a perfect fit...]

"Stop it. Stop bringing up these dirty topics."

[Heh, if there really is a dolphin girl in some world, would you accept her or not?]

"Hey, Fululu, you..."

Lin Shangren wanted to argue with the Bat Girl for a few more words, but suddenly the first feedback sound wave entered his ears and drew a strange shape in his mind.

"There's something!"

[Oh? Did you see the dolphin girl?]

"Dolphin motherfucker...that thing looks like a sunken ship, or maybe some kind of building."

Since the sound wave feedback was not very clear, Lin Shangren decided to go over and take a closer look.

Continuing to dive, after swimming for a long time, Lin Shangren actually saw a bright green light in the dark trench. Following the light, Lin Shangren finally saw clearly the object in the trench. It was a ship and also a palace.

In other words, it was an underwater palace built with a huge shipwreck as its main body. It was like a shining pearl in the depths of the sea, emitting a faint blue light.

The walls of the palace are made of sampans from the wreckage of ships. The wood has become as smooth as jade after years of baptism, and has been carved by sea water and time, showing colorful colors.

The palace's roof, formed from the hull of a massive ancient ship, is inlaid with a dazzling array of corals and pearls, like the brightest constellation in the night sky, illuminating the murky seabed like a dream. Though its sails are tattered, they still sway gently in the current.

【Name: Dragon Palace】

[Quality: Composite material? Master craftsmanship? Broken quality]

[Status: Dilapidated, magic power lost]

[Note: This palace, adorned with countless treasures and featuring a mirage treasure ship as its main structure, was built with the dedication of generations of Ryukyu people. Originally the residence of the "Dragon God," it housed countless treasures. After the Dragon God's disappearance and the Dragon Girl's escape, the palace gradually fell into disrepair and became what it is today.]

"Is this the Dragon Palace? Haha, it seems the Dragon God's aesthetic taste is truly extraordinary."

Judging from its appearance alone, Lin Shangren would have a hard time associating this large, upside-down ship inlaid with coral and jewels with the traditional Dragon Palace. This thing was truly too crude.

"The Mirage Treasure Ship. I remember seeing it in Taira Ie's memories. The so-called Dragon God once hijacked Xu Fu's ship in his quest for Fuso Island. Could this be it?"

Lin Shangren locked the identification frame on the top of Dragon Palace City.

[Name: Mirage Treasure Ship Wreck]

[Quality: Wooden material? Master craftsmanship? Broken quality]

[Status: Damaged]

[Note: The giant ship built by Qin Shi Huang in his quest for the elixir of immortality was crafted by several renowned craftsmen from the Gongshu and Mohist schools. However, it was hijacked by a dragon and used as the roof of his house.]

"Good boy, it's true."

Lin Shangren swam closer, stroking the jewel-studded bottom of the ship, and thinking that he could now draw energy from the ocean, he simply summoned the [Dice of Four Beasts] to activate the power of Laplace's demon, ready to repeat the experience of this ship.

As the blood-red light filled his pupils, the scene in Lin Shangren's sight gradually shifted to more than two thousand years ago. He then witnessed the entire process of the giant ship from its construction to its use as a roof by the dragon.

It is said that more than 2,200 years ago in this world, Qin Shi Huang Zhengge, like most other Ying Zhengs in the multiverse, successfully unified the world and established the first unified feudal dynasty in Chinese history.

Naturally, this world's Qin Shi Huang also harbored a deep interest in immortality, just like his predecessor. However, in this world, for unknown reasons, the alchemist Xu Fu, who cured Qin Shi Huang's migraines, died prematurely. Therefore, barring any unforeseen circumstances, no one would exploit the myth of a mountain in the East China Sea, where the immortals possessed an elixir of immortality, to defraud funds and abscond with the funds.

However, in this world, it is impossible for nothing to happen unexpectedly.

One day, while sleeping, Ying Zheng suddenly had a dream. He dreamed of the so-called Nine Heavens Goddess. The goddess told him, "You, Ying Zheng, as the Son of Heaven, are entitled to immortality. The opportunity to achieve immortality lies in the East China Sea." To achieve eternal life, he should quickly build a large ship, gather five hundred young boys and girls, and find a man named Xu Fu to lead the ship and his men to search for the immortal mountain in the East China Sea.

In order to prove that her dream was real, the Nine Heavens Goddess gave Ying Zheng a pink pearl in the dream and asked him to send it to the East China Sea as a token of entry into the fairy mountain.

When Ying Zheng woke up, he found that he was holding a pink pearl in his hand. He immediately ordered the construction of the treasure ship Mirage and recruited young boys and girls to prepare to set sail in search of medicine.

Then, as expected, the construction of the Mirage Treasure Ship was completed, and it set sail out to sea. Then, as expected, in the waters near the Ryukyu Islands, it encountered the "Dragon God" who was responsible for sealing the Yamata no Orochi.

The Dragon God saw that the ship was large enough, with ample rooms, to build a home. He seized the ship and sank it to the bottom of the ocean, using it as his new home. He also selected some young boys and girls and transformed them into his servants. The rest were sent to the surrounding islands as slaves, responsible for logging, mining, and hunting for sacrifice to the Dragon God.
