Chapter 679: Fish
Chapter 679: Fish
Anomaly Pollution...
Upon hearing the Archer Director's assessment, Lyon couldn't help but wince, his face contorting in pain.
"So, does that mean I've learned it or not?"
"Your Anomaly Enhancement Secret Art is indeed mastered, but the Archer Secret Technique you've learned cannot be used to enhance anomalies. So, in a sense, you haven't truly learned it."
"..."
So, I've learned to be lonely?
"In any case, your Sorcery Talent is indeed exceptional. But if I were to pass on the position of Archer Director to you, it would be as if the Anomaly Enhancement Secret Art of the Archer Palace had been lost with you."
After bluntly stating this conclusion, the Archer Director waved his hand, dismissing Lyon's chances of promotion.
"Off you go. The Zodiac Selection for the Pisces Palace is about to begin. Although you can't learn the Archer Secret Technique, the Pisces Palace Secret Art may be suitable for you... Oh, and that eyeball is a teaching tool for next time, so don't take it with you."
"..."
You old miser...
Lyon silently tossed back the eyeball, which still carried the scent of sheep, and examined his sleeve, where the black and white Pisces pattern was slowly swimming, just as the Archer Director had described.
"Wait a moment."
The Archer Director called out to Lyon and waved towards the female custodian sitting in the last row, who was whispering to Abigail.
"You too, come here... It's perfect since both of you have the mark of the Pisces Palace. I'll send the two of you together!"
Given the Archer Director's reasonable suggestion, Lyon naturally didn't object and even nodded at the petite female custodian, offering her a kind smile.
Upon seeing his smile, the petite female custodian couldn't help but shy away, instinctively avoiding his gaze. She spoke softly, her voice quivering slightly.
"How about... I go a little later? It's not that I don't want to go with Mr. Lyon. It's just... I've only just learned, and I have some questions I'd like to ask Sir Archer, so could I..."
Tsk! This girl has a good grasp of Secret Arts, but her courage is truly lacking.
The petite female custodian's behavior practically screamed, "I'm afraid of Lyon," on her face, and the Archer Director couldn't help but notice.
As he watched his most promising "student" shrink away from Lyon, the Archer Director rolled his eyes and waved his hand expressionlessly.
Whoosh!
With the Archer Director's gesture, a scorching desert wind swept in, and Lyon's figure instantly dispersed, transforming into countless specks of yellow sand that scattered with the wind. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a lush, green world with clear blue lakes, far from the desolate world of sand.
A landscape fish tank?
Lyon looked up in disbelief, gazing at the lifelike "miniature" landscape in the distance, then lowered his gaze to the lake, where a lionhead carp, as large as a killer whale, swam. Finally, Lyon confirmed his assessment.
The old Archer... Director, had indeed sent him into a massive landscape fish tank.
...
"Oh no!"
Just as Lyon was about to find a high spot to get a better view of the Pisces Palace, a gust of coarse wind carrying sand blew in, materializing the petite female custodian.
However, her luck seemed to be less than ideal, as she didn't land on the shore like Lyon. Instead, she landed on the lake's surface, covered in giant water lilies, managing only a shriek before plunging into the water.
And even more unfortunately, as the "anomaly" plopped into the water, the thick-backed carp with large fleshy tumors on their heads in the lake began to wriggle their plump bodies and swim towards the spot where she had fallen.
What the hell is this?!
Seeing more than a dozen monsters with large fleshy tumors on their heads rushing towards her, the female cleaner was momentarily stunned, then her face paled in fright, and she began frantically paddling towards the shore.
Unfortunately, although she wasn't swimming slowly, the lionhead carp, with bodies as long as five or six meters and bigger than half a bus, were obviously much faster.
The female cleaner struggled to paddle, but the distance she had covered was nothing to the lionhead carp, who effortlessly caught up with her with just a few flicks of their tails, opening their mouths that were bigger than a round dining table...
"Help... glug glug... Save me!"
"..."
It's not that... although the fish is a bit big, you're still a cleaner. Can't you even handle a large toothless goldfish?
Watching the female cleaner in the lake, who had forgotten how to swim, gulping down water and screaming as she tried to avoid the fish, Lyon shook his head speechlessly and reached for his cufflinks, preparing to take out the black goat from the Mirror World.
However, to Lyon's surprise, even the Mirror Dog, which had never failed him in the Soulfall Abyss, gave no response this time. No matter how he called out, Yuhua remained unresponsive.
So it wasn't that the female cleaner was incompetent, but that the anomaly couldn't be used here?!
"Huh?"
Just as Lyon discovered the anomaly here, the sky in the fishbowl world suddenly darkened, and a somewhat familiar childish voice came from above, where the sun should have been.
"Is that you?"
Looking into the fishbowl, Lyon saw the Pisces Director, wide-eyed with surprise, and she couldn't help but stand on her tiptoes, leaning against the edge of the fishbowl world, greeting him with a happy face:
"You're here too!"
Mimi?
Seeing the child version of the Pisces Director's cute face, Lyon, who was a bit flustered due to the "malfunction" of the anomaly, immediately calmed down and asked loudly:
"Sir Pisces! We're here to learn your secret art. Is this scenario a test you set up?"
"Huh?"
After hearing Lyon's words, the Pisces Director blinked, then asked back in confusion:
"What secret art?"
"..."
Damn, this is the child version of the Pisces Director, and it's a bit hard to communicate with her!
After considering the current situation, Lyon tried a different approach, gently coaxing her:
"Sir Pisces! Did the other directors ask you to stay in the Pisces Palace?"
"Yeah."
"And besides asking you to stay here, did they also make requests of you and hope that you would do something?"
"Um... I think so..."
After hearing Lyon's words, the Pisces Director blinked a few times, then began to recall, counting on her fingers:
"Joan told me that in my current state, I couldn't teach anything, but I could let you learn on your own in these... these tanks, and I had to keep an eye on these fish tanks to ensure your safety, like...
Oh no! The fish, no eating them!"
