I open a supermarket with strange rules

"what--"

Zhao Xiyue opened her mouth and water rushed into her throat, causing her to cough violently.

She subconsciously tapped her fingers, wrapped herself in transparent bubbles, and finally was able to breathe.

The bitter and astringent sea water choked her and tears welled up in her eyes. It took her a long while to recover.

The dark blue sea water gently surrounded her, and as the tide surged, it brushed across her body, making her relax unconsciously.

'I'm in the sea?'

Zhao Xiyue floated in the blue sea and after a while of adapting, she barely learned to swim using her tail.

She turned around curiously.

It felt so wonderful, like my body suddenly became several times lighter and I wanted to dance on the spot.

Zhao Xiyue puffed up her cheeks and tried to breathe through her cheeks.

The sea water gently enters the gills, and the water flow brings oxygen, but there is no discomfort, just like breathing air.

Zhao Xiyue took a few deep breaths for fun.

I never thought that I would have such a wonderful experience as being a mermaid in this life.

She quickly adapted to the darkness of the seabed and saw clearly where she woke up.

This is a dark and ominous nest hidden in the black reef. There are all kinds of strange objects in the nest, most of which Zhao Xiyue doesn't recognize, but the corresponding knowledge naturally pops up in her mind, as if she has used it thousands of times.

She swam slowly into the nest and cautiously searched for clues in this space of less than 5 cubic meters.

The three sides of the nest were lined with six-story shelves filled with objects. In the middle was a table and a shell bed filled with sea urchin-like objects that made people feel uncomfortable.

Zhao Xiyue moved her fingers lightly, and the water flowed along her heart, rolling up the objects on the shell bed and throwing them all to the ground.

Sure enough, a piece of paper appeared underneath.

The note was a blue color that was almost black, and two rules were written on it in fonts as bright as moonlight:

[1. A witch's duty is to bring mystery, fear, and magical power to the world. Please remember your identity and be a good witch.

2. Poseidon, the god of the sea, hates witches. He was predicted to die at the hands of a witch. When you meet Poseidon, please hide your identity as a witch.

Zhao Xiyue understood instantly that she was the witch mentioned in the rules.

And here is the witch's lair.

She searched the three shelves but found no new clues, but did discover two ancient books.

Witches also have a heritage.

These two books are the secret manuals left by the previous witch, recording the glorious history of the first generation of witches - the lover of Poseidon, the god of the sea, who threw herself into the arms of Satan after her daughter was killed and almost destroyed the entire ocean.

Poseidon was also injured and has been sleeping in the Temple of Poseidon ever since.

There were many interesting spells recorded at the end, and Zhao Xiyue began to learn them with great interest.

Maybe it was because her soul was baptized by divine power and received the gift of war, but now she could learn these spells just like playing a game, and she mastered them in an instant.

Zhao Xiyue found a black magic wand in the gorgeous treasure chest beside the shell bed.

The spell flowed out of his mouth fluently, causing huge waves in the sea five hundred meters away.

Zhao Xiyue's eyes lit up as she looked at her hands.

The feeling of mastering power really fascinated her.

She did not rush out to look for new clues, but simply learned all the spells she could find in the witch's lair.

It was not until half an hour later that I put down the last book with a sense of reluctance.

These spells don't seem like skill cards from the system; they are powers that are completely controlled by her.

Zhao Xiyue was like a child who had obtained a new toy. She swam out of the nest, waved her magic wand, and stirred up the waves around her.

Within a radius of ten miles, all marine life retreated tacitly.

All creatures in this sea area know that there is a terrible witch living there. There is not a single fish within five miles of the witch's lair, which is the highest respect they can show to the witch.

With her own strength, Zhao Xiyue upgraded this respect to ten nautical miles.

She swam happily in the sea.

The only thing that worried Zhao Xiyue was that she didn’t even see the shadow of a fish.

I've been swimming for half an hour, and all I see around me is sea water, rocks, seaweed and other dead things. I haven't seen even a single strange shadow.

Zhao Xiyue decided to go back and see if there was a teleportation array that could allow her to leave this desolate sea area.

When she returned to the nest, she detected a hint of blood in the sea water.

The smell of blood is not strong enough, but it is the smell of human beings.

There are humans on the sea floor.

There was a hint of amusement in Zhao Xiyue's eyes, and she swam quickly towards the location where the smell of blood was coming from.

In a mass of seaweed, a blond, fair-skinned, handsome man was sleeping peacefully. His clothes were tattered, but his original splendor could still be seen. On his chest was a blue gem, which emitted a pale blue light that prevented him from drowning in the sea.

The sea water floated his face and hair, making him look like a broken yet beautiful prince in distress.

Zhao Xiyue thought about it and dragged the man back to the witch's lair.

She had a feeling that the plot of this copy was about to begin.

After all, the story of a witch and a prince sounds like a tragic love story.
