Chapter 123 Abnormal Absorption Ability, Shark Chili
"Then we can't waste this spring water. If we miss this opportunity, we won't have another chance. I heard them say that this small elemental spring water is a valuable item that even first-ring wizards fight over," Lin Wei was startled by his own guess, and his body jolted violently in the water.
"But I really can't digest it anymore." Lin Wei was in great pain, and he held his head in his hands, rolling around in the water.
Just then, a notification appeared in front of Lin Wei's eyes.
"Should we convert the element factors into knowledge points? The conversion ratio is 2:1."
Lin Wei's eyes lit up. This thing could be converted back? His eyes lit up like two small light bulbs.
"How about trying a different conversion? How about converting 100?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a portion of the elemental factors in Lin Wei's brain disappeared out of thin air.
[Absorb 100 elemental factors]
[Converted to 50 knowledge points]
"Amazing, and I can drink it again." Lin Wei clearly sensed that his body could drink the spring water again. His body swam happily in the water, like a nimble little fish.
"Go on, I'll just use the leftovers to make a substitute for later," Lin Wei said with a smile.
Lin Wei continued drinking heavily, no longer having any worries.
[Absorb 112 elemental factors]
[Converted to 56 knowledge points]
...
[Absorb 130 elemental factors]
[Converted to 65 knowledge points]
The elemental spring water beside Lin Wei disappeared at a visible rate. The surrounding water flow became somewhat chaotic as the spring water decreased, and Lin Wei kept adjusting his posture in the water, as if he was fighting against the chaotic water flow.
The sea creatures were cleaning up the battlefield when the nearest great white shark widened its eyes, vigorously flailing its fins and splashing a small spray of water. The surrounding seawater rippled with the shark's movements, like circles of crumpled silk.
He was secretly delighted, a slight smile playing on his lips. His fish mouth opened and closed, releasing a string of tiny bubbles: "This... truly lives up to his reputation as a prodigy from the Sea Clan's royal city. His talent seems boundless."
For sea creatures, appetite is a symbol of potential. At the same level, the more one can eat, the more energy one can store, which is also known as demonic power.
Before long, the sea creatures returned one after another, led by the giant turtle. The giant turtle swam slowly, its shell swaying slightly in the current, the patterns on it like the marks of time.
A group of sea creatures followed behind him. Some of them flicked their tails as if they were in a hurry, while others were leisurely and unhurried. They dived into the spring and were dumbfounded to see Lin Wei still drinking.
The big tortoise's eyes were wide open, and the patterns on its shell were trembling. It stretched out its short claws and rubbed its eyes, as if it doubted that it was seeing things.
"This... is the master still drinking?" the giant turtle asked the shark, its voice trembling, its shell shaking, and the surrounding seawater rippled slightly.
"Yes, it hasn't stopped." The great white shark nodded its head, its fins flaring even faster, stirring up the surrounding water.
"As expected of an official from the capital, I had so many doubts before." The giant tortoise was completely convinced. It slowly sat down and leaned its shell against a large rock. The rock swayed slightly as it leaned against it, splashing up some fine sand.
The other sea creatures followed suit, bowing their heads low. Some bowed so low they almost touched the sand on the seabed. Others bent slightly, their attitude extremely respectful.
The strongest of the sea creatures present were roughly equivalent to first-class wizard apprentices, so in their minds, Lin Wei, this large blue fish, was both powerful and mysterious. They looked at Lin Wei with eyes full of awe, and some sea creatures would occasionally steal a glance at him before quickly lowering their heads again.
Hearing the sea creatures' worship, Lin Wei was overjoyed. He gently swayed his fishtail, stirring up a small ripple in the water. Although his face remained expressionless, he was secretly delighted, thinking, "Even though they are mortal enemies, these sea creatures seem easy to fool. Besides, I can do many things with my identity in the future. Just like this elemental spring water, I obtained it entirely through my connection to the royal city. If a real war breaks out, no matter how strong I am, I won't be able to get that much."
"I need to get this disguise sorted out. At the very least, I need to get the sea people to accept me." Lin Wei began to plan, his fins unconsciously touching his chin as if he were pondering a major problem. "But it's very risky. I can't let the sea people know that I'm a wizard, nor can I let the wizards know that I have the ability to transform into a sea person, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
By this time, Lin Wei had almost finished drinking the spring water. He suddenly opened his fish eyes, which revealed a sense of majesty, and slowly said, "Call me Lord Lan."
This was a name he made up, which would be his alias for surviving in this sea area.
"Lord Lan..."
Upon hearing this, the sea creatures expressed their envy. Some of them had eyes full of envy and mouths slightly open, as if they wanted to say something.
Some sea creatures kept wagging their tails, as if expressing their excitement. There was even a hint of submission in their movements, making Lin Wei feel embarrassed. He gently swayed his tail, as if to show humility.
Lin Wei thought to himself, "If I manage to hook any of these guys in the future, I won't hold back a single one..."
"Don't you have names?"
Lin Wei asked curiously, waving his fish tail, which drew a graceful arc in the water, splashing up some tiny droplets.
"Reporting to Lord Lan, we don't have names. I'm called Turtle Twenty-One, and he's called Squid Thirty-Eight. We're named according to our birth order. He's called Shrimp Forty-Two." The smartest giant turtle pointed to the other sea creatures and answered them one by one, gesturing with its claws in the air as if numbering them.
"Uh... this is a bit too simple and crude." Lin Wei was speechless and started rolling his eyes. The fish's eyes rolled upwards and its tail stopped wagging, as if it was very dissatisfied with the way the name was given.
"My lord, why don't you give me a name? My real name is Shark Sixty-Three."
The great shark that had been protecting Lin Wei grinned widely, its mouth agape, revealing its sharp teeth, as if trying to please Lin Wei.
If Lin Wei could name him, then he would be able to gain a new identity.
"Is that alright? Your current name is quite nice, at least it's easy to remember." Lin Wei said, waving his fins gently in the water, as if making a gentle gesture.
"No problem, sir, please take as you please," the great white shark nodded, its head bobbing up and down as if to show its sincerity.
The other sea creatures all looked on with envy. Some stared intently at the great white shark, as if hoping they too would have such an opportunity. Others thrashed about, seemingly expressing their envy.
"You can call yourself Shark Chili," Lin Wei said casually, as the fish opened and closed its mouth, uttering these words.
