Chapter 10 A great harvest!


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.

"Hiss..."

That is to say, Xia En's body is a projection body, otherwise he would have personally come into contact with the seawater soaked in the corpse... It would feel so sour and refreshing, he simply couldn't bear it Dare to think.

"They were only highly decomposed, rather than completely transformed into skeletons, indicating that their death time was about one to three months."

"Because they were in a relatively closed cabin, they were not exposed to fish, shrimp, etc. Eat and wipe clean the creature."

Xia En forced himself to calm down.

Use all kinds of 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 all have no heads?"

Xia En glanced roughly and discovered the common features of these corpses.

Every corpse looked like it had been beheaded by a guillotine. The head was missing, not even the skull was left.

The dark cabin, the slowly flowing filthy seawater, the headless corpses gathered together...

To be honest, this scene is really evil and weird, as if some kind of process has been carried out. The scene of an evil ritual.

But Xia En's mood soon stabilized after a brief moment of panic.

It’s the body of projection anyway!

The worst case scenario is that you have to start over again, are you scared?

The brave will be starved to death, and the timid will be starved to death!

After thinking about this, Xia En's thoughts suddenly became clearer and his courage became bolder. He suppressed his nausea and stretched out his hand to touch the corpse.

The touch from 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 a 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. 】

“Good stuff!”

Xia En’s eyes lit up.

Obviously, this black stone dagger can be regarded as an extraordinary weapon.

In my memory, this kind of weapon was very popular on Duke Island, and could 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 energetically.

In the face of the temptation of money, what does it mean to touch a corpse?

It’s good to make money, not shabby!

Then, he took out several personal weapons one after another.

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 ones 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 bodies, Xia En's eyes fell on the table and cabinet in the captain's room.

The real good stuff is yet to come!

The most eye-catching thing on the captain's desk is a strange black box.

It feels heavy and I don’t know what’s inside.

Since he was in the sea and could not open it to check, Shane temporarily put it together with other trophies.

Immediately afterwards, Xia En found a 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 the Ship Soul's protection was about to dissipate, Xia En decisively stopped and packed the loot together in a sack.

Then, his consciousness briefly returned to his body on the boat, and he threw 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 shattered with a "pop".

[The submersible 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 is indeed feasible!”

Looking at the bulging sack, Xia En looked happy.

This is the way he came up with to skip class, making perfect use of the submarine mechanism.

Based on the experience of the first two submersibles, Xia En found that the panel seemed to have a rather strange judgment on the spoils of submersibles.

For example, it will not regard the sack filled by Shane as "a trophy", but it will regard the closed black box and the sea crab with its claws broken 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 in a single thread, and I can’t really do two things at once, controlling the body and the projection at the same time.”

“Furthermore, this method can only be used in shallow seas. ”

"When we get to the real deep sea, just the process of surfacing is enough to consume all the strength of the ship's soul."

"At that time, we still have to cooperate with the salvagers to carry out 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 collide with each other, making a crisp and sweet sound.

"Get rich, get rich."

Xia En looked happy, smiled, and began to count the harvest of this submarine.

There are 36 ready-made silver snake coins and more than 300 copper coins.

The currencies issued by the Seven Seas Federation, from low to high in value, are copper coins, silver snake coins, and gold dragon coins. The conversion between the two basically fluctuates around 1:100.

Actually, there are still many copper coins scattered in the sunken ship.

But Xia En saw that many copper coins had already 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 the coins, there are also——

9 weapons that are not completely rusty.

13 miscellaneous accessories.

When counting these sundries, Xia En felt like 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 the total.

The income from this submarine voyage 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 harvest.”

"There are indeed countless secret treasures hidden under the sea!"

Xia En licked his lips excitedly, feeling that these days were getting more and more promising.

At this rate, paying off the debt will be just around the corner!

Then, Shane set his sights on that peculiar black box again.

His intuition told him that there was something good in it.

Shane 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.

A statue completely black was revealed.

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.
