Chapter 56 Pollution of the Sea

"What does this mean?"

Chen Ye observed the shape of the luck halo above his head and fell into a brief contemplation.

From the color point of view, dark yellow represents wealth, black represents disaster, and sky blue symbolizes creation.

Three different halos, forming an image at the same time...

Could it mean that fortune and misfortune are interdependent, and wealth and honor are sought in danger?

For a moment, Chen Ye couldn't tell whether this was good or bad.

If only dark yellow and black were intertwined, it could be understood as "a business that requires taking risks."

But there was also a blue halo inserted.

Those who didn't know thought it was going to be a "three-body movement"...

making the luck image that was originally difficult to interpret even more complicated.

However, Chen Ye knew that in addition to creation, the blue color also had other symbolic meanings-

the sea!

Whether it was the son of the sea god or Miss Squirrel Fish, there was blue light embellishment in their aura.

Chen Ye tried to analyze it from another angle:

"This blue does not necessarily represent creation."

"It may be related to someone who is related to the blue luck aura, or a place..."

"There is a place that is highly connected to the azure aura!"

Xijiang!

Chen Ye suddenly realized that this place was closely connected to the "azure" aura.

Maybe he could get some luck here.

He left a few sugar-roasted chestnuts on the spot, placed them next to the bed of the old man playing the erhu, left from the west gate of the alley in Xining, and walked quickly to Xijiang Park.

It was noon, but the heavy clouds blocked the sunlight. Although there was no thick fog like yesterday, the whole city was still shrouded in gloomy weather.

When passing the pedestrian street, there seemed to be fewer shops open next to it.

There were basically no shops open.

But what surprised Chen Ye was...

On the way to Xijiang Park, a row of barbecue stalls were in business, and billowing black smoke came out of the grills.

However.

Compared with yesterday, these barbecue stalls actually have a lot more customers with numb expressions, queuing up to buy barbecue.

Compared with the desolation along the way before.

The liveliness here seems even more weird.

Chen Ye opened the Eye of Luck and found that these customers were surrounded by black mist, and frowned slightly.

This made him instinctively move a few steps away from the barbecue stall.

Passing by this place, speed up and run through.

Soon left the barbecue stall a hundred meters away.

"It seems that nothing is wrong..."

Seeing that the luck halo above his head has not changed, Chen Ye muttered in his heart, such a bad barbecue, there are still people willing to queue up to wait?

Such an uncharacteristic thing made Chen Ye pay more attention to avoid violating any weird rules.

Even if the luck halo did not show any danger warning...

Arriving in Xijiang, the environment has become much safer.

Walking along the cobblestone flowerbed path, all the way downstream.

When passing the dam, the desolate and empty downstream appeared in front of him.

However, just as Chen Ye's eyes fell on the river, his pupils shrank slightly!

The blood-red giant eyes had become four!

As the dead white eyelids blinked, a pool of ink-colored water, like dead water, began to ripple.

It was as if a huge wooden stick was stirring the entire paste-like river surface and pushing it around.

The speed of water pollution is accelerating...

The black fog lingering on the river surface has become thicker than before.

Chen Ye stopped in the distance and did not rush to approach the downstream, but retreated to the position of the dam.

When passing by several descendants of the sea god along the way...

He immediately opened the pupil of luck and observed the color of the halo on the other party.

As expected, the black and red intertwined evil spirit became thicker than before!

That black was like an endless abyss. Once you fall into it, you will never recover.

You can think of it...

This halo must be related to disasters!

At a glance, most descendants of the sea god have similar halos.

Even compared with the last time, many of the descendants of Poseidon who were not so serious, now the halo has become more serious.

On the contrary, the situation of some players who came to work was not so obvious, but it was not optimistic.

"I need to ask about the specific situation..."

Chen Ye instinctively felt that the situation downstream was not as good as he imagined.

He took off the human skin mask and repainted a friendly face to prevent other players from recognizing him as the "forbidden trick" in the lower reaches of Xijiang River.

Then, he found a younger and easier-to-talk descendant of Poseidon, and stopped him to ask questions:

"This respected storm citizen..."

Chen Ye used the plot dialogue commonly used in the game to address the other party...

As expected.

When he heard "Storm Citizen", the young Poseidon turned his head and hammered his chest with his right hand.

"The storm is with you, this traveler, you can call me Eloi."

Chen Ye smiled, he knew that he had gained the other party's initial recognition by using the correct way of communication.

He pointed downstream and asked anxiously, "I want to know what happened there. Why does the water there... look so strange?"

Eloy said with disdain, "Heh, it's just a spreading pollution."

"Pollution?"

"Yes..." Eloy recalled the stories of the elders in the tribe, and then explained to Chen Ye: "That is an unknown sea area, connected to this city of destiny."

"You should know that the seas in this world are interconnected. When a place is polluted, it will cross the ocean and drift to the entire sea area."

"With the purification ability of the sea area, conventional pollution cannot cause any impact, even if it is only a little bit."

"But this pollution will continue to spread and is a little more serious than expected."

Just a little more serious?

Chen Ye frowned slightly in his heart. According to the other party's explanation, it actually came from another sea area.

And connected to the city of destiny...what does this mean?

Without waiting for Chen Ye to ask, Eloi said proudly:

"Heh, but these things are not a serious problem for us Sea Gods."

"We have the blessing of the Dragon God! We have the great power given by God! We have the magnificent dam!"

"These pollutions can't break through our defenses at all, they are so insignificant!"

Seeing Eloi showing such a confident look, Chen Ye took back the words that were just on his lips, and couldn't bear to hit the other party's self-confidence, so as not to cause unnecessary disputes.

"May the storm be with you."

"May the storm be with you."

Chen Ye hammered his chest with his right hand, bowed slightly, and said goodbye to Eloi in a way that the descendants of the Sea God would use.

He returned to the lower reaches of the West River and looked far away at the direction of the estuary.

The sky over there was accumulated with thick black clouds, as if there was no sunlight all year round.

Looking with the eyes of luck, you will find that the evil spirit over there is even more intense, as if it enveloped the whole world, and even the sky is about to collapse!

"Is it really that simple..."

Recalling the confident smile of the son of the sea god, Chen Ye mocked silently.

The next second.

He took out the suona tied around his waist, turned in place against the storm, and began to play.
