National destiny: Starting with a coffin, building an aircraft carrier is broadcast live globally.

Does it attract the dead?

It's not of any use for now.

But we should not be picky; everything has its value, it just depends on when and where it is used.

In the future, when materials are urgently needed, it might be able to be used as a signal transmitter to "call for help".

The remaining gold coins and gems cannot be broken down even if you hold them in your hand.

It appears to have been identified as some kind of material or special currency.

"Splash—"

He dumped the heavy crown, along with gold coins and jewels, into the captain's cabin storage box to give the ship a more down-to-earth (bandit-like) feel.

unfortunately,

The thin layer of gold on the bottom of the box made it look very shabby.

It seems that this "Rising Coffin for Fortune" ship is still a long way from actually getting rich.

"Boss! The fire's ready!"

Klaus's shout came from the deck.

He casually brushed off non-existent dust from his hands and took out freshly cooked crab meat and crab roe.

The crab roe was bigger than a washbasin, orange-yellow and glossy, and the crab meat was crystal clear.

"This stuff is so good, it should be roasted and served with vodka!" Ivan swallowed hard.

Klaus is performing the final cleaning steps on the crab shell pot.

Upon hearing this, he immediately cast a disdainful glance, "Rude! It should be churned into a smooth, thick soup!"

"...You Hans cats just love to turn good things into a complete mess (。-ω-)"

"[○･｀Д´･ ○] You Russian bears......"

Seeing that the two were about to escalate their conflict from a simple meal to a national dispute, Renyi silently dragged the crab shell to the fire.

Put the whole crab roe in, and cut the crab meat in as well.

"Stop arguing."

He stirred it inside with a stick. "Now we have both roasted and boiled ingredients!"

Klaus: "..."

Ivan: "..."

[Welcome to "A Bite of Sailing," I'm your host, Ren Yi!]

[This crab roe... oh my god, my mouth is watering.]

[I'm starving! Time for dinner!]

[This family hierarchy... is obvious at a glance ╮(╯▽╰)╭]

[Waaaaah, do we need a cook? No salary, just meals!]

[Let me do it... I'm a Michelin-starred chef...]

[If you can't do it, let me do it. I'm an expert in all eight major cuisines!]

……

Although there was no crisis as in the Ocean Era

However, the command centers of various countries on Earth are also on edge.

Dragon Kingdom

The screen in the center showed a video of three people enjoying a crab shell.

The atmosphere was completely out of place with the somber atmosphere inside.

"Report: The summary of known sequence intelligence from the Russian Bear has been compared with our intelligence."

General Pei nodded slightly.

"What's going on in the US?"

"It's very quiet; they're probably waiting for the 1st of next month."

The chief of staff immediately replied, "Jack Morrison, he, Zelens, and Elijah have all reached level 2, and Morrison will likely reach level 3 soon."

"Don't worry about it, just prepare all the player and sequence data to be sent during communication."

"yes!"

"And also," General Pei said kindly, looking at Ren Yi, who was stuffing crab roe into his mouth.

"We should ignore any requests for help or assistance from other countries."

"You mean...?"

"The game is fair; he'll get what he wants himself. We just need to do what we can and provide him with support."

The chief of staff stood at attention: "Understood!"

Meanwhile, in the beautiful country.

"FUCK!"

"How could they have formed an alliance so quickly?! Those idiots from the Russian bear country, don't they know how cunning the Chinese are?"

Anne adjusted her glasses. "Ivan's just a simple-minded brute; all he cares about is profit. If we can offer something bigger..."

"What can you give me?"

Michael interrupted her impatiently, "That Chinese guy can conjure a ship out of thin air!"

"Ship modification engineer..."

Anne muttered to herself,

This is exclusive intelligence from their beautiful country.

"Only this sequence of legends can explain everything he did."

……

The three were completely unaware of the turbulent events unfolding on Blue Star.

They were completely satisfied with their crab feast.

[You have consumed the flesh and blood of a Lv.4 mutated creature; your stamina recovery speed has been slightly increased.]

Ivan felt a warm current flowing through his injured leg, and it didn't hurt much when he moved it.

Klaus opened the panel and looked at it.

Klaus Schmidt

[Sequence: Blacksmith (Lv.1)]

Evolution Points: 86/100

Current proficiency: 250/1000

[Skills: Woodworking, Bone Processing, Basic Mixed Forging]

The evolution points are almost enough to meet the evolution requirements.

My skill level is still far from sufficient. I've only gained 250 skill points from tinkering and making furniture these past two days, plus dismantling Ivan's ship this morning.

At this rate, if it's a one-on-one fight, let alone how to acquire evolution points...

The issue of raw materials alone is difficult enough.

Thinking of this, Klaus felt an even deeper sense of gratitude towards Renyi.

"What's wrong?"

I noticed the melancholy on his face.

"It's too difficult to improve proficiency." Klaus didn't like to express his gratitude verbally; he would repay it with actions.

"The skill level that can be gained from simple woodworking has decreased."

After thinking for a moment, he dragged over the pair of large pincers. "Shall we try this?"

Their gray carapace gleams with a cold light, and the serrations on the inside are sharp.

While Ivan was still grinning foolishly, Klaus had already opened the sequence panel.

A pale blue light screen unfolded, and the Guardian transformed into countless lines to form a holographic three-dimensional model.

"A simple wooden structure cannot support such heavy external armor; your ship needs a complete overhaul."

"Then... can it be changed?" Ivan's smile froze on his face.

"Sure, but as for the materials..."

Klaus sought arbitrary permission.

Renyi had been wanting to clear out the inventory in the system warehouse for a long time, so he took out all the bones and wood at once.

Even though the deck is spacious enough now, it's already filled with this pile of materials—

The main force is the skeleton of that two-headed shark.

[Wow, they really emptied their pockets!]

[Ivan: What have I done to deserve this...?]

[Is the boss planning to get Ivan a luxury hearse too?]

[Don't be so harsh; the expert's main approach is to distribute resources evenly.]

Ivan and Klaus both looked ecstatic.

"That's enough...no, it's too much..."

Klaus muttered to himself, his hands 'waving' in the air.

The complete two-headed shark skeleton was the first to disintegrate, and the thick fish bones replaced the original keel of the Guardian.

The white fish bones form a wider and stronger framework.

The two giant claws were attached to the new ship skeleton, and the excess material, along with the wood, was used to fill the ship's skeleton...

The whole process lasted a full half hour.

The Guardian was transformed into a heavily armored vessel about ten meters long but nearly six meters wide, with a broad, flat hull and a deep draft.

Perhaps because the keel is based on a two-headed shark,

The bow is shaped like a huge shark's head, with two pincers attached to the sides of the bow, which will extend forward in a crossed manner when needed to attack.

Parked next to the long and elegant ghost bone boat, it looked like a lurking behemoth.

"Oh my god..."

Ivan lightly stroked the ship's hull, which was adorned with shark teeth.

"This...is this really okay for me?"

His eyes reddened.

The memory of drifting alone at sea, the fear and despair of fighting alone against unknown monsters...

"It looks like...like..."

"Like a seafood platter." (A smile)
