Witcher: I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 290: Mermaid

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Suddenly, a young girl appeared beside the boat. She was lying on the edge of the boat with her hands crossed. She was looking at Heath with her big, bright eyes.

It was an extremely beautiful young girl. She was about 16 or 17 years old. She had a pair of big, sapphire-like eyes. Her skin was as white as a pearl. Behind her, her hair was as bright as flowing gold.

She lay by the side of the boat, her eyes filled with curiosity, as if it was the first time a peasant girl in a remote town saw a Knight coming from afar.

The girl stared at Heath for a while, then asked, “Can I come up?”

“Oh!”

Heath stepped back a little. “Go ahead.”

The girl released her hands and pushed the boat up slightly. With a splash, she jumped out of the water and sat on the boat.

At the same time, the girl’s full appearance was completely exposed to Heath.

It was a perfect but very strange body.

Her upper body was exactly the same as an ordinary human girl’s. She had a slim waist that was like a water snake without the slightest bit of fat, tall and round breasts, and a beautiful and curvy collarbone. She looked like a doll.

However, the lower half of her body was very strange. The large forked tail of the fish was covered with fine blue scales.

This was a legendary Mermaid.

Heath asked cautiously, “Were you singing just now?”

Mermaids were one of the top high-level demonized creatures in the sea race. They were also one of the few intelligent species in the Seafolk Race.

This race only had females and every Mermaid had unparalleled beauty and an angelic voice.

In order to reproduce, they would sing on the surface of the sea to attract passing sailors. They would use the sailors who were infatuated with their beauty to get pregnant, and then eat the sailors as food for consumption during pregnancy.

The girl burst out laughing.

Heath raised his eyebrows. “What?”

The girl sneered. “In this place, it’s really rare for a Mermaid to make a Wizard wary. Shouldn’t the one who should be afraid be Nami?”

A Mermaid’s cruelty was only relative to ordinary human sailors, but to Wizards, they were actually very little of a threat. Most of the time, they used ‘materials’ to take advantage of the Wizards’ experimental table.

Mermaid meat was still a good delicacy in the Wizard World...

Heath shrugged and did not answer, but asked in return, “Nami. Is that your name?”

The girl said, “Witch Nasha gave it to me. She likes to name everything, including her white mice, her knife and fork, and the tomatoes she ate this morning.”

Heath’s mouth twitched.

He turned his head to look around and asked, “I think I’m lost. I was going to Deep Sea Kiss.”

Nami said, “Don’t worry. The ship is still moving. You can’t feel the advance because of the magic array set up by the Wizards. After all, this is the masterpiece of an intermediate Wizard.”

Heath was slightly stunned.

He quickly closed his eyes and released his spiritual tentacles into the surroundings. Soon, he noticed the runes all around him.

‘So that’s how it is!’

This discovery made Heath feel a little ashamed. He had always claimed to be proficient in magic arrays, but he did not notice the magic array that was right in front of him. It had to be said that this was indeed a shameful thing.

‘There is no prohibition on learning. It is better not to be arrogant in the future!’

Actually, this could not be entirely blamed on him. The difference between an intermediate-rank Wizard and a beginner-rank Wizard was equivalent to the difference between an Apprentice and a Wizard. This difference was in magic power, runes, and even knowledge.

Based on the knowledge of an intermediate Wizard, it was reasonable for a beginner Wizard like him to not be able to notice the magic array.

Opening his eyes, Heath thanked her. “Thank you.”

Nami smiled. “You’re welcome. You’re Jackman’s friend, and I’m Jackman’s friend.”

Heath smiled. “Heath Noen, nice to meet you.”

Nami brushed her hair. “Nice to meet you.”

At that moment, the white fog in the air gradually faded. Alice, who had disappeared, reappeared in Heath’s field of vision. She had clearly been there the entire time, but she had ignored Heath’s shouts.

Nami said, “You’ve arrived at your destination, Heath.”

Heath nodded. “Yes.”

Nami blinked her eyes playfully and said, “Alice is famous for being unruly and capricious in Deep Sea Kiss. All the Wizards who have provoked her have been tormented by her.”

“If I were you, I would either stay away from her or sleep with her. Haha.”

The corner of Heath’s mouth twitched.

“Then, let’s chat again when we have time. Goodbye.”

“Goodbye.”

After saying that, Nami jumped into the water. With a swing of her large fish tail, she quickly sank into the water.

Heath turned his head and looked ahead.

At this time, the fog had basically dispersed. The originally empty center of the lake had now become a new scene.

It was a small floating island, and on the floating island stood an ancient castle...

...

A few days later, Deep Sea Kiss, Wizard Castle, Conch Room.

The center of the spacious Conch Room was laid with a thin layer of sand. On the sand was a huge conch that was as tall as a person. The flesh inside the conch had disappeared without a trace, leaving only a shell... The shell was covered with dense runes, like twisted tadpoles.

The giant conch was also known as the Big Conch. It was a rule-based Wizard tool that could distinguish between lies and falsehoods. It was said to be made by a Stigmata-level Wizard.

“Then, Brother Heath, I’ll leave it to you.”

“Tell the conch what happened to you in detail. Leave the rest to magic. The conch will prove everything you said.”

Heath walked up to the conch and sized it up.

It was about three meters tall, not much different from the other conches. Its twisted body was covered with protruding hard objects. There was a pointy one that looked like a trumpet.

What was strange was that there were twisted runes all over its body. The runes were tadpole-shaped, and they looked like they were still wriggling and flowing, as if they were alive.

Heath stared at the flowing runes, his eyes full of curiosity.

Rule runes!

These were runes used at the level of rule-type spells, and they belonged to the higher-level of spell knowledge in the Wizard World.

Speaking of which, it was not his first time coming into contact with rule-type wizardry. There was even a blueprint of rule-type wizardry stored in his mind. However, until now, his understanding of rule-type wizardry was not very high. Basically, he only knew a little about it. The reason was because of these runes.

These runes were the higher-level knowledge of Wizards in the Wizard World. In the past, he had only read a few bits and pieces of introduction in books and had never been systematically trained.

And because of this, although he had extracted a set of blueprints of a rule-type Wizard tool through the system, he actually didn’t quite understand the contents of the blueprint.

‘Can I extract anything from this conch?’

As he thought curiously, Heath placed a hand on the conch and muttered in his heart, ‘Extract.’
