Chapter 79 Help them fast forward a bit.
"Mina...I hope she's alright?" Rocco, disregarding the sticky mess, rushed forward to support Mina.
"It's okay, it's psychological, she won't really suffocate," Luo Xi said casually, looking at the prop information shared by Mr. Box.
Underwater Magic Bubble, CC-grade consumable.
After use, it forms a layer of mucus with "isolation" properties on the skin surface, lasting for 2 hours and with a shelf life of 7 days.
The condition cannot be resolved using conventional methods before the duration ends.
Made from slime gel, it may have a slime smell; use with caution if you have allergies.
Just as she suspected, this stuff really was made from readily available slime gel...
Mr. Box is really good at making money; he knows how to make use of waste!
Oh right, Rosie isn't planning on using this anyway.
The combination of slime and little dragon girl is still a bit beyond Rosie's tolerance. If the slime were replaced with Mr. Box, she could barely accept it.
"Are you really alright?" Rocco looked at Mina with concern.
For some reason, after Mina got into his arms, she didn't move at all, as if she were dead, which made him a little panicked.
"Do you have any treatment drugs or anything? I'll pay for them." Rocco gritted his teeth and took out his credit card.
He deliberately delayed leaving because the travel expenses had become a "salted fish greatsword," and he was too embarrassed to ask Mina for it.
These past few days, Rocco took on a gold refining job, and after several sleepless nights, he finally scraped together enough money for the trip, but before he could even enjoy it, it was all gone...
However, he didn't regret it, as long as Mina was alright.
"The products sold here are of the highest quality and are of the same quality. The underwater magic bubbles are only used to isolate seawater and have no suffocating effect."
Fang Qi remained silent as a message appeared on the screen.
He's a veteran actor; how could he not see that Mina initially disliked the strong smell of slime and didn't want to eat it?
Then, things went awry, and before he could recover, Rocco forcefully restrained him...
It was all a coincidence.
But now things are really messed up; even if they could save him, Fang Qi is beyond saving.
Otherwise, if a rumor spreads that magic bubbles pose a suffocation risk, how can he continue doing business?
Vicky, on the other hand, was extremely excited during the connection, a pool of liquid writhing wildly inside Fang Qi's stomach:
"What a great day! There was even a pure love scene! The innocent catgirl was overloaded by the clueless boy's direct attack and is completely frozen!"
"Vicky, you," Fang Qi was really itching for a response, "just behave yourself..."
"Oh." Upon hearing this, Vicky intensified her actions and began rubbing against Fang Qi.
"Attention all faculty and students! The Supreme Council has approved Emergency Plan No. 1, which is hereby announced."
Vance's voice, amplified by amplification magic, suddenly rang out over the academy.
Everyone paused, and pricked up their ears.
"...Given that Akasha is about to sink, in order to ensure the safety of faculty and students, the institute will install emergency flood shelters. Advisors are requested to immediately proceed to the commercial area to assist. Students should assemble at their respective departments and are prohibited from moving around unless absolutely necessary..."
Fang Qi didn't listen to the beginning or the end, he only listened to the middle part.
They also knew that Vans was about to place an order.
Then Mina and Rocco cannot be kept!
"Luo Xi, make your move!" Fang Qi gave the order.
Luo Xi reacted extremely quickly, knocking the two unconscious with a wave of her hand, packing them up and throwing them into the back warehouse.
She wasn't after money or wanting to kill anyone, so she didn't feel any guilt.
Anyway, there are still two hours before Mina recovers, so Rosie can just treat it as helping them fast forward some time.
It's over as soon as you wake up, how convenient!
Knock, knock, knock—there was a knock on the door.
"Dean Vance, just a moment!" With her two hands, two claws, and a tail, along with five towels, she quickly cleaned up the suspicious marks on the floor.
He rolled the towel into a ball, threw it at Mr. Box, and shouted, "Coming, coming!"
Open the door.
Seth didn't come; only Vance stood at the door, holding a sticker that read "Creator Supreme VIP Partner."
It was even magically sealed, preserving its original flavor in perfect condition.
"They're asking me for a discount!" Fang Qi thought with a chill.
His initial thought was that the standard cube needed to be promoted by the college, so he offered some preferential treatment to the college leaders.
But now, with the promotional effect about to be greatly reduced, the discount is still in the other party's hands...
Fine, a discount is a discount. Fang Qi always keeps his word.
We can just quote a higher price!
"I'd like to order, is this a convenient time for you?" Vance asked, casually waving the VIP sticker in his hand.
"Welcome, our VIP Partner."
Fang Qi's screen displayed a line of text, and he gave a perfunctory greeting.
"Want to order 'high-efficiency water-repellent piles'?"
"Powerful water-repellent stakes, one is stronger than six, five times the magical sealing power, more for the same price, wholeheartedly protecting your dryness!"
Vance's lips twitched.
This taste... it's so familiar.
"From what I've observed, a standard cube can last for about two days?" he asked.
Fang Qi checked the box and waited quietly for his defeated opponent to make a move.
This is the humility of the strong.
"Look, the academy is now cut off from the outside world, and we don't have many resources. We also have so many mouths to feed," Vance said, playing the emotional and resource card.
"We really don't have many resources left. After the flood-repellent piles cover the dormitory buildings and key experimental areas, they can only last for less than a month... So, could we borrow them first and pay for them after we leave?"
To be honest, there's some truth to those words.
If the academy is as poor as Vance claims, Fang Qi wouldn't want to deliberately make things difficult for them.
After all, it is a huge loss to destroy all the interpersonal relationships that have been painstakingly built up underwater because of a little bit of profit.
He knew perfectly well that talent was the most important thing.
As long as the students and mentors are alive, Fang Qi has plenty of ways to squeeze money out of them.
Fang Qi almost agreed!
The premise is that they didn't know Seth had brought a box of high-value stone tablets.
"The leasing-related business is not yet fully developed; please purchase with full payment."
Fang Qi initially refused, but seeing Vance's face instantly turn bitter, he quickly added a line of text, revealing his true intentions.
"Considering the actual situation and the purchasing intentions of our VIP partners, the promotional package has been prepared. The current promotional product is: a powerful water-repellent stake + an underwater magic bubble bundle!"
"Don't hesitate, don't overthink it, the best deal on this combo package is here!"
"Not 999, not 888, one water-repelling stake plus six magic bubbles, only 7777 gold coins!"
The cost of a water-repelling pile is 2701 index points, the metal rod cost 2000 due to the extraction and assignment of terms, and the standard block cost 700.
The underwater magic bubble, being a temporary consumable, only costs 401.
They only made a tiny profit from selling the whole package, which shows their sincerity!
"Your GG term is wrong, how come it gets more expensive the more it's discounted?" Vance complained.
Given the marketing tactics employed by the Creator, he has every reason to believe that this was intentional.
"What are magic bubbles?" Vance asked.
"You want to try it too?" For some reason, Rosie's expression was a little strange.
