Grand Voyage : Surviving on a Ghost Ship

Yang Yi had just returned to the deck when another earthquake struck.

The Nightmare Star was also rocked by the waves, swaying relentlessly.

Two minutes later, the island completely disappeared, submerged in the sea.

Along with it, the nest — or what could be called a temple, which was inscribed with the "Book of Spider Body" — vanished as well.

Yang Yi didn’t feel any regret.

He believed that such divine relics, beyond the comprehension of humans, should not exist in the mortal world! Only the dark, deep sea could be their rightful home!

Yang Yi manoeuvred the Nightmare Star, turned the ship around, and headed straight towards the Extreme Winter Sea.

He had stayed there too long, and the black fog behind him had never stopped.

Back in his room, Yang Yi planned to make the remaining sweaters.

There were 31 left, and he needed 93 energy points to finish them.

Yang Yi had the energy to weave sweaters but lacked the energy to rest or sleep.

He even drank another Appetiser Potion during this time.

By noon the following day, he finally finished.

He immediately contacted a few of his friends who had purchased items from him.

First, he sold a set to Yu Dawei for 2000 Shell Coins.

Yu Dawei was the captain of the Iron Will and had been very generous, even giving Yang Yi some giant Bobbit worm meat, making him someone worth building a close relationship with.

However, Yu Dawei didn’t buy just for himself.

He bought 4 more sets for 4000 Shell Coins, planning to distribute them among his subordinates.

Next was Xu Da, captain of the Swift Wind.

Although they hadn’t met in person, they were friends online, and Yang Yi offered him a friendly price of 3000 Shell Coins.

Xu Da quickly paid and provided high-value information about the Extreme Winter Sea.

At the time, most players hadn’t entered the Extreme Winter Sea yet, and most were still preparing in the surrounding areas.

However, Xu Da and a few others had explored the area.

According to him, the Extreme Winter Sea was full of large floating icebergs, and if encountered, it was best to avoid them, as what appeared above the water was only the tip!

Also, the temperature in the Extreme Winter Sea could reach minus ten degrees Celsius, making resupply very difficult, and fishing there was often a waste of time.

Lastly, after traveling a certain distance in the Extreme Winter Sea, they would encounter white mist, but since Xu Da had never entered it, he didn’t know what was inside. Perhaps the temperature would drop even more.

Yang Yi thanked Xu Da for the information and continued chatting with him.

His Swift Wind guild was different from most other fleets, as it was a loose alliance made up of young, fast ships and adventurous players.

They shared information, did internal trading, and occasionally met up.

Yang Yi then privately messaged several players who had left comments saying they wanted to buy sweaters, selling 3 more sets.

He then tried contacting other friends to speed up the selling process, so he wouldn’t have to use up his chat messages in the world channel.

It was also a good way to boost his presence.

Once the remaining sets were sold, Yang Yi planned to sell them all to Shen Guanquan!

He had a large appetite, so he would probably buy them all.

The first person Yang Yi contacted was Zhou Dai.

She was probably someone who didn’t lack money.

Plus, her holy water had helped Yang Yi several times, so he could offer her a friendly price.

But after waiting for more than ten minutes, Yang Yi still hadn’t received a reply from Zhou Dai, which likely meant she wasn’t interested.

So, Yang Yi tried contacting the experienced fisherman He Qi, asking if he wanted the fuzzy sweaters.

This time, he received a response almost immediately.

He Qi: "Sorry, I just caught a big fish."

Yang Yi: "Who asked you about fishing?"

He Qi: "Haha, the sweater’s stats are okay, but I don’t need it, because I have something better!"

【Name: Fuzzy Seal Fur Coat】

【Type: Treasure】

【Quality: Rare】

【Description: A fuzzy coat made from seal fur, covering the entire body. Not only is it warm, but it's also waterproof. Even if you unfortunately fall into icy waters, you won’t need to worry about freezing to death. It has one flaw, though — once worn, it tends to smell.】

Yang Yi stared at the information for a while, unable to respond.

The fisherman really knew his stuff!

He decided to ask "He Brother, are you selling this outfit? I just earned a big sum."

He Qi: "Not selling! If I give you mine, what would I wear?"

Yang Yi: "Actually, the sweater is pretty nice. It accentuates your figure."

He Qi: "Go away! Want to show off your body in the ocean? Are you trying to attract passing sea monsters?"

"If you want this outfit, you can come to the Extreme Winter Sea to fish."

"Only by fishing fuzzy seals and killing them can you possibly get one through a vending machine."

He Qi then sent a coordinate, showing where he caught it.

Yang Yi fell silent.

He couldn't even catch normal fish; if he tried to catch a fuzzy seal, it would probably turn into a skeleton seal.

But He Qi really was obsessed with fishing.

While most players were still preparing, he had already gone ahead and fished in the Extreme Winter Sea.

No wonder he became the captain of the Fisherman ship.

Moreover, his ship was also special, but its skills only appeared after levelling up. With a level 3 ship, there were two skills available.

【Blessing of the Angler: In any sea area, you can catch normal fish, and the chances of catching rare items are increased.】

【Angler's Persistence: You will never get an empty catch; as long as you're willing to fish all day, you'll catch something at least once.】

After reading the skills, Yang Yi was stunned.

So, all his fishing luck had been taken away by this guy!

Later, the remaining 6 sets of fuzzy sweaters and miscellaneous pieces were all sold to Shen Guanquan.

The guy took everything.

With that, Yang Yi's account balance reached 76,800 Shell Coins — quite a hefty sum.

Aside from ship crews, players who could pull out this kind of money were probably less than 1%.

Yang Yi planned to use the money to upgrade his equipment and restock on ship supplies.

As for medicines, there was no need — Suna’s original potions were far better than anything else on the market in terms of effectiveness.

Of course, they were much harder to drink.

He started browsing through equipment on the chat channel and asked Suna if she wanted anything.

Suna replied quickly and directly.

"If you have extra money, just transfer it to me. I'm completely out of cash!"

Yang Yi read the message and shook his head.

The girl didn’t even need equipment, she seemed eager to pour all her money into her lab.

If she had a flare gun, it’d probably be sold within a few minutes.

Yang Yi didn’t ask her any further and transferred her 6,800 Shell Coins.

He hoped she would use it wisely, know when to stop, and try to make some potions with better effects and fewer side effects!

"By the way, can you make me another bottle of the Scarlet Potion, just in case?" Yang Yi sent another message.

After receiving the money, Suna’s attitude noticeably improved.

"I’ll make it for you now!"

Yang Yi didn’t bother with her further and continued planning his supplies.

He had considered selling the Vitality Coconut Juice, as the Appetiser Potion could replace it and even had better effects.

But after thinking about it, he decided to keep the coconut juice.

It would be better for Suna, as her sanity cap was low, and the risk of drinking potions was too high for her. Coconut juice was a safer choice for her.

He had 54 bottles, enough for her for quite a while.

Yang Yi continued browsing weapon equipment and checking food prices, preparing for a large shopping spree.
