ncy had noticeably improved. By noon, it was the Lion Clan's turn.After a good night's rest, Yan Jia felt much better. She had planned to ask the merfolk females about the divine messenger's identity,..."Saving Lives"

Ripple was a little puzzled, how should she complete this mission Just as she was wondering, the mortar had already opened the portal and briefly explained.

"Ripple, I give you this task because you have a pocket space, and your space has already begun to develop in the direction of a small world. It's capable of holding living beings."

As long as you seize this opportunity, you will be able to achieve a high level of species diversity in your space, accelerating the formation and evolution of your small world. This will also be very beneficial for you.

Ripple understood immediately, saying it was saving lives. She guessed it was moving the beings who lived on top of the world before it collapsed. But a new question popped up.

"The noodle collapse must have reached its limit, why send special operatives to rescue"

Some dimensional collapses are indeed the result of the evolution of the Origin River, where aging naturally leads to collapse, and new dimensions are then born. However, some dimensions collapse due to reasons other than normal evolution.

"I understand."

Ripples immediately thought of human disaster, wondering what kind of person would cause a plane to collapse.

"You'll know the specifics once you enter the plane. Special agents are also easy to recognize."

The ripples nodded, this time without delay, and directly entered the transmission portal.

When Lian Ri opened her eyes again, she was met with a black cage. She blinked a few times and moved her body, realizing that she was dressed very lightly, the fabric only covering the essential parts of her body.

And right now, he was trapped in a cage that was less than a meter high, and outside the cage was covered with a layer of cloth. But the cloth wasn't completely covering it; a ray of dim light shone through.

Then all sorts of noisy sounds entered her ears. This made Ripples furrow her brow, and just as she was about to try standing up, the cloth covering over the cage was suddenly lifted open.

A beam of light shone directly onto Lian Yi's face, and a man's high-pitched, impassioned voice rang in her ear:

"Behold, ladies and gentlemen, a mermaid captured by my fleet from the depths of the ocean. A rare find indeed! It cost me three sailors to acquire her."

Come and see this beautiful, powerful and fierce mermaid. Did she instantly capture your eyes The starting bid is five hundred gold coins, with no upper limit! Highest bidder gets it!

Then ripples heard the gasps and murmurs of the crowd all around, and ripples lowered her arm that had been shielding her eyes, looking down at the faces below—each one filled with astonishment and excitement.

Then the man poured a basin of water into the cage, drenching it with a wave that brought a chill to her bones. Immediately after, her legs transformed into a fishtail, a shimmering violet-gold one.

"Wow! It's really a mermaid!"

"Look, her tail is so pretty!"

"The scales shimmered with five colors; if I could use these to make a piece of armor, it would be both beautiful and practical."

Don't mermaids' tears turn into pearls Can we see some

Someone immediately cried out.

"My esteemed guest, if you desire mermaid tears, simply procure a sum of gold and purchase a mermaid. You may then do as you please to make her weep."

The auctioneer rattled off his words.

I have gold coins, but I also need to know if her tears can truly turn into pearls. What if after buying them, I find out they're fake

Someone else joined in the commotion.

"That's right, auctioneer Mike. You need to prove the value of these goods to us."

"Alright! I'm afraid of you guys. Our auction house has always been genuine and reputable."

Mike finished speaking, and then took a trident from the maidservant beside him, aiming it at Ripple in the cage. His target was her fishtail.

Before the ripples, there was no resistance, only observing the surrounding environment. She needed to make sure she was in the right place because there had been a few mishaps before.

As the crowd haggled with the auctioneer, ripples sensed the chaotic elemental energies swirling in the air. They were a jumbled mess, lacking any semblance of order. This confirmed her suspicions – she hadn't arrived in the wrong place. This world was indeed on the verge of collapse.

And the people around were dressed more like people in medieval Europe. Women wore corsets and long dresses that reached their ankles, with their hair piled high and almost no jewelry. Men wore long waistcoats, breeches, and high-heeled boots, with colorful feathers sticking out of the hats on their heads.

Among these people were also some men in Chinese long robes, and some burly men in leather vests and bare-chested. There were also servants in rough hemp clothes moving through the crowd, serving tea to these distinguished guests.

Just as she was astonished by the ripples, a bucket of water was poured over her, and then her long legs transformed into a fish tail. This confirmed for her that this time she had borrowed the body of a mermaid.

After that, she tried to accept the memories of this body, but unfortunately, there was nothing. This made her speculate that she should be a soul inhabiting another's body, the original owner of this body had already dissipated.

"The ripples, this body is temporary. If you don't come, she'll just be a corpse, so you can use it with peace of mind."

"I knew it when I failed to accept the memory a while ago."

"Ripples, because this dimension is about to collapse, it will affect our communication. If you can't get in touch with me for a while, don't worry, just follow the special mission agent."

"I understand."

Okay, best of luck with your task.

Just as the two had severed contact, a harpoon plunged into the cage, its target locked onto her tail.

Ripple extended her slender white hand and grabbed the trident with one swift motion. With a slight tug, she pulled the trident and Mac on the other end towards the cage, catching them completely off guard.

Another ripple reached out, clamping a hand around Mac's throat and saying coldly:

You shouldn't anger me.

In Mike's horrified gaze, Ripples single-handedly broke the cage, cast a cleansing spell on herself, turning her fish tail back into legs, and then stepped out of the cage.

Seeing this, all those who wanted to bid fell silent. They stroked their own necks and felt they couldn't control this mermaid.

"What are you standing there for Grab him!"

A man with a bushy beard barked, clearly the mastermind behind this auction.

After the ripples appeared, she raised her hand and threw Mike at the two burly men charging towards her. After smashing both of them to the ground, she waved her hand to put on a sky-blue robe and released the whirlwind at the same time.

At the moment of its landing, a surge of unstable energy collided in the air. Its keen senses detected danger and it instantly shifted into its true form, letting out a roar that shook the stunned crowd below. The entire auction hall descended into chaos as everyone scrambled for the exit.

Mike, who had been thrown out, no longer cared about his work. His life was in danger, so he scrambled to his feet and followed the crowd towards the door.

For these small fry, Ripple didn't care. She pulled Doro out of the space with a flick of her wrist and, in a single turn, sent the man who had just given the order sprawling at her feet.

"Please spare me! It was Kane who brought you here to be auctioned!"ack to find the group of little ones.When the ripples returned to the top of the canyon, the children were still asleep. Only the boy at the front slept restlessly, his brow furrowed tightly, as if he...
