Chapter 9 The ship soul is happy
At the same time.
Joy, who was enjoying the drying treatment, was also secretly surprised by Shane's ability to control water.
“Is this also one of the abilities of the Mystic?”
“As expected of Mr. Captain!”
Due to the current situation of this world, occupations closely related to the ocean account for nearly half of the thirty-two secret paths.
Many secret professions have the ability to control sea water.
This is why Xia En dared to use his talent in front of her.
After a while, Joey's clothes became dry again and his mood finally stabilized.
“Thank you, Captain.”
The girl lowered her head and said in a voice as loud as a mosquito: "I want to go to the room to rest for a while."
Xia En nodded: "Go."
After Joey left, Xia En turned to look at the sea around him.
It must be said that after the initial novelty, sea voyage itself is actually a boring and boring thing.
Most of the time, the surrounding sea remains unchanged and not even an island is visible.
Not to mention, the Black Swan is still anchored in the same place.
Looking at the half-painted deck, Xia En sighed: "Idle time is idle, just finish painting it!"
He has always been an action person, and he will do whatever he says. Dry.
It's amazing.
When Shane started cleaning, he felt a sense of joy from the deck, as if he was enjoying the process.
Enlightenment arose in Xia En's heart.
For most sailors, the "ship spirit" is just an illusory thing, like a spiritual sustenance.
There are only a few people who can truly communicate with the ship spirit.
After awakening the [Eye of the Secret Sea], he established an extremely close connection with the Ship Soul.
So we cannot simply regard the [Black Swan] as a dead object, but as a partner with a soul!
Do you understand what bondage is?
In the future, you might even be able to develop exciting combo skills!
After thinking about this, Xia En became more energetic.
After the entire deck was completely renewed, feelings of relief and gratitude came from somewhere.
The ship soul is delighted!
[Your actions have touched the soul of the "Black Swan"! 】
[Ship Spirit Level: LV1 (6%)]
[Black Swan "Sturdiness" +1! 】
While the ship's attributes increased, the gentle warmth flowed out of his heart again, strengthening Xia En's body.
Not only does the skin become tougher, but the physical fitness is also enhanced.
"Okay, okay, you are indeed my soul mate!"
Xia En looked surprised and touched the deck under his feet with a smile: "When we get rich, we will definitely give you good equipment."< br>
Another hint of childish intimacy came through.
After coaxing the ship spirit, Xia En was also hungry.
He packed up his things and walked back to the cabin. He found that Joey's door was closed and it seemed that he would not come out for a while.
"It seems that I have to cook by myself today."
Xia En felt helpless and finally realized the trouble of lack of manpower.
Originally, why do chores such as cleaning the deck and cooking meals require the captain to do it himself?
"After returning to the island, we still have to find a way to recruit a few people."
Thinking of this, Shane couldn't help but recall the situation of being abandoned by his previous sailors, and added in his heart: " It’s easy to say whether you are strong or weak, the key is to be reliable!”
Walking to the kitchen, Xia En cut the crabs into eight pieces and put them into the pot to steam them in batches.
As long as ingredients like this are fresh enough, the taste will generally not be that bad.
It turns out that Shane’s experience is right.
As soon as the pot is opened, a unique seafood aroma wafts out.
He casually opened a crab leg as thick as an arm, revealing the plump crab meat inside.
The snow-white crab meat is slightly pink, trembling and very tempting.
Xia En couldn't wait to take a bite. It was sweet and tender, a delicacy in the world. It was so delicious that he almost swallowed his tongue. Although the taste of shark soup is okay, it is far behind compared to sea crab.
“The meat of alienated sea beasts seems to be generally more tender than ordinary marine creatures?”
Xia En had a strange expression: “It’s true that a foodie is ecstatic.”
Then, he took great pains to open the back cover of the giant crab, and a lump of crab roe bigger than a human head came into view, which made his mouth water with greed.
Take a bite of this thing, and it smells so good that you feel confused?
So, Xia En sat in the kitchen and ate hard.
I’ll ride on the horse and eat!
The only problem is that the crab is too big.
Although Xia En's food intake has increased significantly after his physical fitness became stronger, it is still unrealistic to eat an entire cancer crab.
He had no choice but to cook the whole crabs as much as possible to slightly extend their shelf life.
“It smells so good!”
Half an hour later, Xia En patted his belly and felt extremely satisfied. It was really a pleasure to have such a crab meal.
“Oh yes, I almost forgot about my only crew member.”
In line with the boss's care for his employees, Shane came to the door of Joey's room and knocked on the door.
"Joey, I caught another big crab today, do you want to try it?"
Boom!
First there was a muffled sound in the room, like someone falling off the bed.
Then, Joey's voice sounded weakly: "Captain, I understand, I will go to the kitchen to get it later."
Xia En didn't think much, thinking that she had just woken up, so he quickly turned around and left.
What Xia En didn't know was——
In the room, Joey was slumped on the floor, his tense expression gradually relaxing.
She breathed a sigh of relief: "It's so dangerous...if the captain breaks in, it will be over."
The reason why she didn't stand up was not that she didn't want to, but that she couldn't do it. arrive.
At this time, the girl's body below the waist was no longer two slender legs, but turned into a fish-like tail.
Smooth and white scales cover it, like pieces of crystal jade, which appear delicate and beautiful, with a faint aura from the deep sea.
In some people, the siren is also called...
Mermaid!
……
…
The next day.
Although not at the same time, it is the same place.
Shane began to dive again.
As soon as he entered the perspective of the projection body, he discovered that the progress bar representing [Ship Soul Power] in his field of vision seemed to have grown a little longer.
"It should be because the [Strongness] attribute has increased a little?"
Xia En speculated in his mind, and kept moving his body, quickly diving to the vicinity of the sunken ship.
With a quick glance, he found the big iron hook he had dropped yesterday.
I have to say that this thing is quite useful underwater. It is heavy and hard, and it can also deal armor-piercing damage at critical moments.
The disadvantage is that it is too heavy. If Xia En had not obtained the ship attribute, he would not be able to control it.
Carrying the big iron hook, Xia En hurriedly swam towards the cabin, hoping to avenge the giant crab yesterday.
But who would have thought that he would miss it.
The cabin was empty, with no sign of the giant crab at all.
Thinking about it, either it went out to look for food temporarily, or it abandoned this shelter.
“Hmph, you can escape quickly!”
Xia En put away the iron hook with some disappointment and officially began to explore the inside of the sunken ship.
Due to limited submersible time, Shane went straight to the captain's cabin in the cabin.
Generally speaking, the most valuable things on the entire ship are often stored here.
Xia En couldn't help but frown as he pushed open the half-open door and saw the sight.
