Chapter 10 A great harvest! In the captain's cabin filled with sea water. Several highly decomposed corpses were floating in various directions, and their skeletons were vaguely visible under the dark green corpse wax. ifier That is to say, Xia En's body is a projection body, otherwise he would not dare to think about how sour and refreshing it would be if he personally came into contact with the seawater soaked in the corpse. “The high degree of decomposition, rather than complete transformation into skeletons, indicates that their death time was approximately one to three months.” “Because we were in a relatively closed cabin, we were not eaten clean by fish, shrimp and other creatures.” Xia En forced himself to calm down. Use various thoughts in your mind to get rid of the nausea and discomfort of facing the rotting corpse. “The strange thing is, why are they gathered in the captain’s cabin?”
“And, they don’t have any brains?” With a cursory glance, Xia En discovered the common features of these corpses. Each corpse looked like it had been beheaded by a guillotine, with the head missing and not even the skull left behind. The dark cabin, the slowly flowing filthy sea water, the headless corpses gathered together... To be honest, this scene is a bit evil and weird, like a scene where some evil ritual has been performed. But Xia En's mood soon stabilized after a brief moment of panic. It’s the body of projection anyway! At worst, you have to start over again, are you afraid? Suffice the bold to death and starve the timid to death! After thinking about this, Xia En's thoughts suddenly became clearer and his courage became bolder. He suppressed his nausea and reached out his hand to touch the corpse. The touch on his palm was slippery and sticky, almost like digging out feces with gloves, but after a moment of fumbling, Xia En really got something. Get a pocket dagger. 【Black Stone Dagger】 【Quality: Rare】 【Type: Weapon】 【Description: A short sword made of strange black stone. It is very sharp and will not be rusted by sea water. After attacking, there is a chance that the target will enter a "withered" or "rotted" state. 】 【The power of the black stone is calling me. 】 "nice one!" Xia En’s eyes lit up.
Obviously, this black stone dagger can be regarded as an extraordinary weapon. From memory, this kind of weapon is very popular on Duke Island, and can be sold for at least ten silver snake coins. Silver Snake Coin +10! As if such a reminder appeared, Xia En was in high spirits and touched even more vigorously. In the face of the temptation of money, what does it mean to touch a corpse? Earn money, don’t be shabby! Subsequently, he took out several personal weapons. However, after being soaked in sea water for so long, most of them are rusty and cannot be sold for much money. The slightly more valuable items are two pieces of jewelry of average quality and a well-made pocket watch. Although there is a restriction that you can only bring back one piece of loot when diving, with Xia En's amazing wisdom, he had already thought of a way to avoid this restriction while fishing yesterday. There are restrictions ≠ I have to abide by them. After searching the corpses, Xia En’s eyes fell on the table and cabinets in the captain’s cabin. The real good stuff is yet to come! The most eye-catching thing on the captain's desk is a strange black box. I felt it was heavy and didn’t know what was inside. Since he was in the sea and could not open it to check, Shane temporarily put it with other trophies. Following that, Xia En searched another bulging money bag in the cabinet. He weighed it and found that if it contained all silver snake coins, it should be no less than thirty. Silver Snake Coin +30! Another windfall! Having tasted the sweetness, Xia En immersed himself in searching for a while, trying to maximize the benefits of this submarine voyage. … … Time flies by. The joy of a good harvest is always short-lived. 【Ship Soul Power LV1: 7/100】Seeing that the effect of Ship Soul's protection was about to dissipate, Xia En decisively stopped and packed the loot together in a sack. Then, the consciousness briefly returns to the body on the boat, and throws a strong fishing net into the sea. After doing this, Shane switched back to the perspective of the projection body and left the sunken ship with a bag full of loot.
Due to the weight, the power of the ship's soul is consumed slightly faster than expected. Xia En also used [Seawater Control] to speed up the float. Just after putting the sack into the fishing net, the projected body was destroyed with a "pop". 【Submarine is over! 】 As soon as he exited the submersible state, Xia En couldn't wait to pick up the fishing net and drag the sack to the deck. “This method really works!” Looking at the bulging sack, Xia En's face was filled with joy. This is the way he came up with to play skipping classes, which makes perfect use of the sneaking mechanism. Based on the experience of the first two submersibles, Sean found that the panel seemed to have a rather strange judgment on the spoils during submersibles. For example, it will not regard the sack filled by Sean as "a trophy", but it will regard the closed black box and the sea crab with broken pincers as a whole. So, if you want to avoid restrictions, the best way is to use the body or other crew members on the ship to cooperate. “However, now I can only operate it in a single thread, and I can’t really do two things at once, controlling the main body and the projection at the same time.” “Furthermore, this method can only be used in shallow seas.” “When we reach the real deep sea, just the process of rising will be enough to consume all the power of the ship’s soul.” “At that time, we still had to cooperate with salvagers to conduct seabed operations.” Several thoughts flashed through Xia En's mind. At the same time, he returned to the captain's cabin with the sack and poured out all the loot inside. Ding Dang Dang — Weapons and money bags collided with each other, making a crisp and sweet sound. “Get rich, get rich.” Xia En had a happy expression and a smile on his lips, and began to count the gains from this submarine voyage. There are a total of 36 ready-made silver snake coins and more than 300 copper coins. The currencies issued by the Seven Seas Federation are worth copper coins, silver snake coins, and gold dragon coins from low to high. The conversion between the two basically fluctuates around 1:100. Actually, there are still a lot of copper coins scattered in the sunken ship. However, Xia En saw that many copper coins had shown signs of rust and would depreciate to a certain extent. Coupled with the time limit, he did not regard them as the main target. In addition to coins, there are also— 9 weapons that are not completely rusted. 13 miscellaneous accessories. When counting these sundries, Xia En felt as if he had become a judge on a treasure appraisal show, or like an old farmer weighing rice, and his heart was filled with the joy of a good harvest. Calculate it all together.
The income from this submarine trip alone is at least 70 silver snake coins, which can directly pay off one-fifth of the debt. If you work on the island, I'm afraid you won't be able to earn so much in a year. —Of course, except for some businesses that make money very quickly. "I just fished out a sunken ship, and I can get this kind of harvest." “There are indeed countless secret treasures hidden under the sea!” Xia En licked his lips excitedly, feeling that this day was getting more and more promising. At this rate, paying off the debt will be just around the corner! Then, Shane set his sights on the peculiar black box again. Instinct told him that there was something good in it. Shaan picked up the old key found in the shipwreck cabinet and inserted it into the keyhole. Click! With a crisp sound, the black box slowly opened. There was a statue that was completely black. This statue is obviously carved of a woman, but the face is not carved with any details, only a blank space, which is both mysterious and weird. For some reason, the statue still has many fine cracks all over its body. (End of this chapter)
