In the captain's cabin filled with sea water.

There were several highly decomposed corpses floating in random directions, and their skeletons were vaguely visible under the dark green corpse wax.

"hiss……"

In other words, Xia En's body was a projection body, otherwise he could not imagine how sour and refreshing it would be if he personally came into contact with the seawater soaked in the corpse.

"Just a high degree of decomposition, rather than a complete transformation into a skeleton, indicates that their death time was about one to three months."

"Because we were in a relatively closed cabin, we were not eaten clean by fish, shrimp and other creatures."

Shane 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.

"Strange, why are they gathered in the captain's cabin?"

"And they don't have any brains?"

With a cursory glance, Xia En discovered the common features of these corpses.

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

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

To be honest, this scene is really evil and weird, like the scene of some evil ritual.

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

It’s the body of projection anyway!

At worst, you have to start over again, are you afraid?

The brave ones will be starved to death, and the timid ones 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 groping for a while, 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. 】

"nice one!"

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 soon as 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?

Make money, don’t be shabby!

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

However, after being soaked in sea water for so long, most of them were rusty and could not be sold for much money.

The items of slightly greater value were two pieces of jewelry of average quality and a well-made pocket watch.

Although there is a restriction on submersible navigation that you can only bring back one piece of loot, 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 corpses, Xia En's eyes fell on the table and cabinet in the captain's cabin.

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 couldn't open it to check, Shane temporarily put it 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.

The joy of 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 was consumed slightly faster than expected.

Xia En also used [Seawater Control] to accelerate his ascent. Just after putting the sack into the fishing net, the projected body was destroyed 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 really works!"

Looking at the bulging sack, Xia En's face was filled with joy.

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.

Therefore, the best way to avoid restrictions is to use the main 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 main body and the projection at the same time."

"Moreover, this method can only be used in shallow seas."

"When we reach the real deep sea, just the process of rising is enough to consume all the power of the ship's soul."

"At that time, you still had to cooperate with the salvagers in 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——

The weapons and money bags collided with each other, making a crisp and sweet sound.

"Get rich, get rich."

Xia En had a happy expression and a smile on his face, and began to count the harvest of this submarine trip.

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

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

In fact, 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 coins, there are also——

9 weapons that are not completely rusted.

13 pieces of miscellaneous jewelry.

When counting these sundries, Xia En felt as if 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 trip alone is at least 70 silver snake coins, which can directly pay off one-fifth of the debt.

If I work on the island, I'm afraid I 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 kind of harvest."

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

Xia En licked his lips excitedly, feeling that this day was 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 strange black box.

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 was obviously carved of a woman, but the face was not carved with any details, only a blank space, which was both mysterious and strange.

For some reason, the statue still has many fine cracks all over its body.
