Chapter 4 Upgrading wooden boats

[Due to your concern, Windsor feels warm and has an affinity +2. 】

It seems that the friendliness can be increased by asking for help, but the amount added is a little too little. However, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still flesh. If you take your time, it will always be full.

As the saying goes, although the road is long, as long as you walk, you will reach the end.

Now the only fishing rod Windsor is using, and the resource fishing rod has been used up. What should I do? It would be nice to have a few more fishing rods, I hope I can use my talent to conjure them up tomorrow.

The sea surface fluctuated. Xia Xin turned around and looked over. It turned out that Xiao Lan had returned from hunting for prey. Looking at Xiao Lan's huge body, Xia Xin's eyes lit up and an idea flashed in his mind.

Directly open the [Trade] interface, search for ropes, and a row of them comes out.

Rope*1

Required for exchange: wood*1

Rope*2

Required for exchange: wood*1

……

All are exchanged for one piece of wood, but some can be exchanged for one rope, and some can be exchanged for two or three.

Xia Xin spent two pieces of wood in exchange for six ropes.

Take out a rope, about four meters long and two centimeters wide. He took out all the others from the space grid, tied them two by two, and made three eight-meter-long ropes. Then he tied each rope into a circle, and finally he tied the three ropes to the bow of the boat.

"Windsor, stop fishing for now. I'm going to do an experiment. You sit close inside." Xia Xin said to Windsor after he finished.

Windsor looked at Xia Xin doubtfully, but still got up obediently and walked to the middle of the ship.

After watching Windsor stand still, Xia Xin called Xiaolan, and then asked Xiaolan to bite the rope.

He warned: "Xiaolan, you will swim forward later, slower, you know?"

Xiaolan yelled to show that she understood, then bit the rope and began to swim slowly.

When they first started, Xia Xin and Windsor stumbled due to inertia. Windsor lay directly on Xia Xin's back, and the bulging flesh deformed due to the squeeze.

Windsor's face immediately turned red, and she immediately stood up straight, turned her back, touched her cheek with the back of her hand, and turned her head to secretly look at Xia Xin's reaction.

However, Xia Xin didn't notice at all at this time. He watched the wooden boat slowly start to float and laughed out loud, shouting: "Sure enough, we need more wood pulp!"

Xia Xin was originally worried about how he could row a boat without wood pulp, but now he has solved the problem directly, and it is much faster than using wood pulp.

"Xiao Lan, go a little faster." Xia Xin ordered directly.

As Xiaolan speeds up. The speed of the wooden boat also increased. After that, Xia Xin asked Xiao Lan to speed up many times, and finally selected a speed range where the boat speed was not slow but relatively stable.

Windsor looked at the smiling Xia Xin and was unconsciously infected by him, with a smile on her face.

"Okay, Xiaolan, stop." Xia Xin called to Xiaolan. He was just trying to see if the method worked. He didn't follow the map, so don't go too far.

"Go on and hunt for food! Come back when it gets dark." Xia Xin touched Xiaolan's head and ordered.

Xiao Lan chirped and dived into the sea.

"Windsor, keep fishing!"

Windsor nodded and walked to the bow of the ship. When passing by Xia Xin, she accidentally looked at Xia Xin and immediately looked away, her face flushed again.

Xia Xin glanced at Windsor strangely, not understanding what was going on and always feeling like he had missed something.

Alas, I spent two more wood, and there are seven left. Upgrading the boat requires 20 wood, which is 26 white stones. Can I catch so many fish in one afternoon? I hope Windsor has better luck than me.

Next, Xia Xin opened the chat channel, watched others chatting, and waited for Windsor.

"Brothers, I just got a silver treasure chest and opened a talent ball directly. I got a green quality talent. I can breathe underwater for an hour."

"Emperor Ou must die a happy death!"

"Are there any good things like this? All I catch are small miscellaneous fish."

"I also got the talent ball, but it's not of white quality. I can get five white stones every day."

"I just killed a second-level small yellow croaker, obtained a white skill stone, and learned a skill."

Looking at the chat records of others in the world channel, Xia Xin realized that you can also get talent balls by opening treasure boxes. Not many people get talents, but there are a few from time to time.

Why can't I catch the talent ball myself? I still like the talent of being able to breathe underwater.

Also, it turns out that you can also explode things by killing monsters! But I sold a few fish but nothing came out! Maybe it’s because I didn’t kill him and just sold it!

Just as he was thinking about it, Windsor handed over a fish and subconsciously used his spiritual eye skills.

Blue swordfish (green)

Level: second

Power: 12

Agility: 13

Defense: 12

Skills: Water Arrow, Extreme Speed

It is also the second level, and the green quality Xiaolan has an average of five lower attributes than the blue quality Xiaolan. It seems that quality affects the strength very much. I don't know what quality I am. Xia Xin thought to himself.

After taking it, Xia Xin punched the fish hard. After the fish died, a burst of green light flashed, and then the fish disappeared, leaving only a green stone, the size of a pebble.

[Congratulations, you have obtained the skill stone and water arrow technique. 】

It turns out that the fish disappeared after exploding something! I thought I could continue to sell it for money.

I opened the panel and looked at my experience, which increased by 8 points. I still didn’t understand the mechanism, so I asked Heavenly Mother, but she ignored me. Forget it, I can summarize it in a day or two.

Pick up the skill stone and look at it with your spiritual eyes.

Water Arrow: Increase attack power by [-]%.

Learning conditions: Water and ice elemental user.

learn directly.

Xia Xin felt like he had more information in his mind, as if he had been practicing for a long time.

With a wave of his hand, a water arrow appeared out of thin air and hit the wooden boat, creating a wooden pit. Xia Xin was stunned. It was okay. It was no big deal. He would upgrade the wooden boat later.

Xia Xin fired five more water arrows in a row, but couldn't fire any more. Xia Xin estimated that he was out of mana, which was the magic value.

After that, Xia Xin just sat down and rested, constantly recovering and releasing water arrows.

Unconsciously, it was getting dark, and Xia Xin had collected enough white stones, and even more.

During this period, Windsor caught a total of 15 first-level white quality fish, one white second-level fish, one white third-level fish, 5 green first-level fish, and one green third-level fish. A total of 35 white stones were sold.

Unfortunately, nothing emerged from killing so many fish.

However, after selling so many fish, Xia Xin finally understood how to calculate the price of fish. The price settlement method is: price = grade * quality.

Green level three is 3*2 and can be sold for 6 white stones. The third level of blue should be 3*3, which can be sold for nine white stones, and so on.

Xia Xin directly spent 34 white stones to buy 17 wood, and then directly upgraded and spent 20 wood to directly upgrade the wooden ship.

As the things disappeared, the wooden boat became 6 meters long and 3 meters wide in the middle. A wooden house was added in the middle. The wooden house was more than one meter high, two meters long and nearly three meters wide. There were two doors at the front and back of the wooden house, which could lead to both ends. of plywood.

This should be the so-called cabin.

Xia Xin directly opened the door and bent down to walk into the house. It was clean and he finally didn't have to get wet in the rain. Although it was just a drizzle, it was still annoying enough.

After pondering for a moment, Xia Xin opened the construction interface and made two benches from one piece of wood. This is the basic construction function that comes with the construction interface. In addition to this, there are also beds, tables and chairs, etc.

Xia Xin didn't build a bed, naturally because the room was too small.

Xia Xin went out and called Windsor into the house and asked her to rest. Then he called Xiaolan and pointed it in a direction according to the map and asked her to tow the boat and set off.

Afterwards, Xia Xin turned around and went into the house, preparing to eat and sleep.
