Chapter 213 Ugly Fish Monster
5150 points are just enough to exchange for the highest value Vislan Grass, or you can choose 2000 Mermaid Tears and 3000 Siren Blade.
Ji Xing heard Jiang Lin make a decision.
Jiang Lin didn't hesitate: "Exchange for Vislan Grass."
Based on the "Adventures in the Siren Kingdom," it is speculated that the effect of the Mermaid's Tears is that after consuming it, one can move freely underwater, while the Siren's Blade is an offensive weapon.
It has a great effect on ordinary players, but it is not very useful for these two.
Ji Xingyi can exploit a bug to use the power of the Crimson Water, and Jiang Lin also has Fabian's dagger, so they're not lacking in weapons for the time being. The Vislan Grass can defend against the siren's special attacks, making it the most useful among them!
When the receptionist, wearing a gold name tag, heard that the two wanted to exchange for Vislan Grass, she gave Jiang Lin a deep look before replying, "Please wait a moment."
A waiter wearing a gold nameplate walked into the staff work area behind him, which was off-limits to those who were not allowed to enter.
Not long after, a male waiter wearing a red name tag came out.
Just over six hours ago, the waiter with the red nameplate led Lu Xingtong and Huang Guanjie to the basement!
"Excuse me, would you two like to exchange for Vislan Grass?" The male waiter greeted Jiang Lin and his companion with his signature smile.
"Yes." Jiang Lin smiled in return, but the smile didn't reach his eyes: "Is there a problem?"
"We've already checked everything, there are no problems. Please follow me." The male waiter led the two to the gift redemption area.
The male waiter opened the glass cabinet door and carefully handed the Visorium plant, along with its pot, to Ji Xingyi.
"Do we need to water it?" Ji Xingyi asked curiously. He didn't know much about growing plants; Zhang Hui took care of all the flowers and plants at home.
The male waiter smiled and said, "Vislan grass loves the sun and doesn't need watering. Overwatering will kill it."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Lin's gaze deepened: "May I ask your name?"
The female attendant with the red nameplate I encountered in the elevator last time was Chinese. But this male attendant is of Western descent, although his Mandarin is very fluent.
"Dear customer, my name is Ivy," the male waiter introduced himself with a smile.
Jiang Lin nodded, picked up the remaining 150 yuan in game tokens, and left the casino with Ji Xingyi.
Tonight's haul was so big that it even alerted the Red Nameplate team. Continuing to play could be dangerous, so it's best to stop while we're ahead.
Back in her room on the 12th floor, Ji Xing carefully placed the Vislan grass on the table.
"Linlin, did Ivy lie?" Ji Xingyi asked.
Jiang Lin: "Hmm?"
Ji Xingyi: "Vislan grass belongs to the underwater world, but Ivy says it likes the sun and doesn't need watering, which doesn't make sense."
Jiang Lin gave him an approving look: "He didn't expect anyone to earn 5000 game coins at the casino, but he had to follow the rules and give us the item. So he gave us false information, hoping we would kill it."
“Do the opposite of everything, it likes shade and water!” Ji Xingyi thought for a moment and simply brought the Vislan plant into the bathroom. During the day, closing the door would keep it out of the light and make it easier to water.
Just as Ji Xingyi finished processing the Vislan grass, his phone rang.
The caller ID showed Song Yan.
"Young Master Ji! I heard the siren's song! Save me! I don't want to die!" Song Yan's voice had somehow turned into a hoarse croak, and since he was speaking from under the covers, it sounded both unpleasant and filled with terror.
Ji Xingyi immediately turned on speakerphone and walked towards Jiang Lin: "Where are you?"
"I'm hiding in my room! He's right outside the door! He's come looking for me!" Song Yan's voice grew increasingly panicked.
"Are you alone in the room?" Ji Xingyi turned around and opened the door, but there was no singing outside.
They were in Song Yan's room. The soundproofing on the cruise ship wasn't very good; they were only one floor apart. If the siren was singing in the corridor, they should have been able to hear her singing.
"They left this afternoon! They haven't come back! I don't know where they went, and I can't get through to them on the phone!" Song Yan cried out in fear, her voice sharp, piercing, and unpleasant.
Jiang Lin gave Ji Xingyi a look, and the two immediately headed to the 11th floor.
Instead of taking the elevator, they walked directly down the stairs from the 12th floor to the 11th floor. After turning a corner, the two stood in the corridor, looking puzzled. Outside the door, the straight corridor was deserted, and they couldn't hear the siren song that Song Yan had mentioned.
"Are you sure the siren is right outside your door?" Ji Xingyi asked on the other end of the phone. "We're already here. There's no siren outside your door, and no one else either."
"No! It's singing right outside the door! I can hear it clearly!" Song Yan hummed a tune, imitating the singing coming from outside the door.
Jiang Lin was slightly surprised. The tune that Song Yan was humming was the Siren Song sung by the actors in the musical "Sea Romance"!
Ji Xingyi continued walking forward, and five or six seconds later, she and Jiang Lin stood at the door: "Open the door now, we'll be right outside."
Song Yan poked his head out from under the covers and heard Ji Xingyi's shouts outside the door. His face showed horror: "The siren really isn't outside? Then who's singing?"
Ji Xingyi: "Open the door first."
Just as Song Yan was about to get out of bed, his expression suddenly froze. Not only had his hands turned into webbed, light blue hands, but by the end of the afternoon, his wrists and shoulders were covered in blue fish scales.
That wasn't the worst part. In the afternoon, Song Yan was extremely tired and couldn't help but doze off again. He slept until evening, and his buttocks were in excruciating pain.
A stinging sensation spread from his tailbone to his sciatic nerve. Song Yan lifted the blanket to take a look. To his surprise, a huge lump covered by a light blue membrane had grown on his tailbone.
The lump was like a water balloon, it ripped his pants, and it looked like something strange was about to burst out from inside.
Song Yan grabbed it in horror, and the membrane was torn open, releasing a large amount of transparent mucus. Something inside immediately stretched out.
Song Yan was completely dumbfounded. The mass wrapped in the blue membrane was actually a curled-up fish tail!
He fucking grew a fish tail?
Has he turned into a fish?
Song Yan had thought about what kind of monster he would become, but he never imagined that he would become a fish!
She's not even a mermaid!
An ugly fish monster so ugly it could be exhibited in a museum!
Song Yan hurriedly called Lu Xingtong and Huang Guanjie, but the two of them ignored him and didn't answer.
Later, Song Yan didn't dare to go out, so he hid under the covers, trembling and praying that Lu Xingtong would come back soon. It wasn't until he heard the siren's song outside that he fearfully called Ji Xingyi for help.
"I... wait a minute!"
Song Yan's eyes flickered, and finally he gritted his teeth and wrapped his lower body in the bed sheet. He walked with his legs apart as if he had just had hemorrhoid surgery, dragging his fishtail, and struggled to open the door for Jiang Lin and Ji Xingyi.
