Ocean Survival: Check In to be the Great Voyager - Chapter 33

Chapter 33: The Captain’s Ambush

Early in the morning, Bick was awakened by Einstein.

He yawned, got up and said to Einstein, “I’ll go and salvage the materials in the shipwreck first. I’ll make you something to eat when I come back!”

Einstein called out “ou ou” a few times to show his agreement.

Bick smiled slightly, then he took his wooden backpack and the oxygen tank that he made last night and prepared to go into the water.

But he was stunned for a moment before he suddenly thought of something.

“That’s right. Sign in first. Maybe the reward will be useful in the sea!”

Thinking of this, Bick opened the system’s sign-in interface.

[Ding! Daily sign-in successful!]

[Obtained a bulky miner’s lamp schematic diagram!]

“Miner’s lamp!”

Bick smiled. This really meant that he could get whatever he wanted. Although the inextinguishable lantern could be used underwater, it occupied one hand at all times, so it was very inconvenient.

Moreover, the lantern’s light was scattered and it was without the ability to focus light. The miner’s lamp was different. It did not occupy one’s hand when worn on one’s head. Moreover, it had the ability to focus light, so the light could shine far away.

As he speculated in his heart, Bick accepted the reward and began to examine it on God’s domain’s slate.

[Bulky miner’s lamp]

[Level: inferior]

[Explanation: The miner’s lamp worn on one’s head is relatively heavy. It is not recommended to use it for long hours. The light can shine for around fifteen meters, and its brightness is average.]

Although the introduction mentioned that the bulky miner’s lamp was not suitable for long-term use, his physique was strong. An ordinary person would probably feel a pain in his neck after carrying the lamp for a short while, however, he should not feel tired after using it for seven to eight hours.

“Let’s see what materials we need!”

[Bulky miner’s lamp: Inextinguishable lantern (1/1), plastic sheet (2/2), metal sheet (2/2), hemisphere coconut shell (1/1)]

Seeing the required materials, Bick was even overjoyed.

The materials were complete and could be directly manufactured!

As he began making it, a coconut shell-shaped hat embedded with the miner’s lamp appeared in his hand in less than a minute.

The weight of this thing was very heavy, and it was indeed a little unbearable for ordinary people.

However, when Bick put it on his head, he felt that there was nothing unusual. It seemed to be quite warm, but it was not very breathable.

Bick smiled slightly and waved at Einstein, “Take care of the raft. I’m going down to collect supplies now!”

Einstein nodded and called out a few times.

However, Bick’s footsteps stopped again. He frowned and checked his current mana crystal. There were actually three pieces left.

“Hmm! In that case, why don’t we create another octopus soul magic staff!”

Under Einstein’s puzzled gaze, Bick returned to the center of the raft and began to examine the God’s domain slate.

[Octopus soul magic staff: Mana crystal (3/3), wooden board (2/2), octopus teeth (1/1), octopus eye (2/2), blood drop (0/3)]

“Only three drops of blood are missing. This is simple!”

Bick cut a small wound on his arm and three drops of blood dripped down, filling the schematic diagram.

Ten minutes later, a strangely-shaped staff appeared in Bick’s hand.

There were two octopus eyes and an octopus tooth on the top of the staff. It looked very strange, and there were three mana crystals neatly inlaid on the wooden handle of the staff.

Bick nodded in satisfaction and stuffed it into his wooden backpack for backup.

This time he was better prepared. With this staff, no matter how powerful the monsters in the shipwreck were, they would not be able to harm him.

Of course, he would not use such a precious weapon unless it was absolutely necessary. After all, he only had three chances to use it.

Bick came to the side of the raft and turned to look at Einstein.

“Now I really have to go down and work!”

“Ou ou ou?”

Einstein was a little confused. He did not know if Bick would suddenly stop to do something. There was actually some doubt in his eyes.

It was not until Bick jumped into the sea that he suddenly called out a few times in worry.

At this time, Bick was very relaxed in the sea.

The light from this bulky miner’s lamp was very focused. He could see the distance of about ten meters in front of him clearly.

He continued to swim deeper into the sea. The light from the miner’s lamp was even brighter, like a white pillar of light.

Based on his memory, he quickly found the hole where he left the sunken ship. With a slight push, Bick entered the hole and a familiar corridor.

Following the route, he continued to move towards the unexplored areas. Bick found a few more cabins.

Of course, most of the cabins had no other resources other than rusty metal fragments. However, when Bick found the third cabin, he found a rusty metal box.

“Hidden treasure chest!”

He took out the universal tool hammer without hesitation and broke the lock on the box.

Bang!

A pile of resources appeared in front of him.

“You have opened the hidden treasure chest!”

“You have obtained rum x1!”

“You have obtained compressed biscuits x4!”

“You have obtained chocolate energy bar x3!”

“Chocolate energy bar?”

Bick was slightly surprised and quickly took the chocolate energy bar in his hand.

A new notification appeared.

[Chocolate energy bar]

[Level: epic]

[Explanation: It can satisfy hunger, but its greatest use is to recover physical strength. If eaten when one has sufficient physical strength, it can increase one’s strength. ]

After reading the introduction, Bick was first stunned for a moment.

He did not expect to get an epic-level food. It was a waste to eat it normally. It was the best choice to consume chocolate energy bars when he was in danger or in battle.

This was equivalent to playing a game, where the support gave a skill that increased attack power!

Thinking of this, Bick quickly put them away and stuffed them into his jacket pocket.

These things could save his life when necessary. It was best to carry them with him, not put them in the wooden backpack.

Next, he searched a few more cabins, but he did not find anything good like a hidden treasure chest. As he walked along the stairs, he gradually felt a faint sense of danger, as if something had been secretly spying on him.

“It seems that an even more powerful monster is about to appear.”

Bick gripped the magic spiked spear in his hand tightly. He slowed down his speed and looked around his surroundings from time to time.

Although this corridor and cabin had been severely corroded, it could be vaguely seen that these cabins seemed to be of a higher level.

He guessed that if he continued to walk up, he would reach the important crew room and captain’s room.

If the skeleton monsters he had killed before were all ordinary crew and passengers, then their combat strength would definitely be weaker. However, if the captain and first mate were to turn into monsters, then their strength would not be so weak.
