We Agreed to Set Sail, but You Became the Ruler of the Deep Sea?

[Note: After strengthening, the components will undergo special irreversible changes, please use with caution! 】

I don't know if it was Xia En's illusion, but this line of comments seemed to have a little blood color and a strong warning.

A bit like the risk warnings that appear when browsing certain websites.

In this regard, Xia En naturally chose...

Keep visiting!

However, he actually did not choose randomly.

At this time, in the [Core Components] column on the panel, a "+" sign appears after all components, which means that they can all be enhanced by [Filth Crystal].

Moreover, there is a component that was not available before.

[Solid wooden keel (normal) (+)]

Xia En guessed that the reason why the keel was not shown on the panel before was because it was the core of the hull. If you wanted to dismantle and replace it, it would be better to just rebuild the entire ship.

Therefore, there is no need to display components that are deemed "non-replaceable".

But now, with [Filth Crystal], there is the possibility of transforming it.

But, then again.

After all, this was Xia En's first time strengthening, and he didn't know what the so-called "special changes" were.

To be on the safe side, Shane decided to use this artillery as a test subject.

If an uncontrollable change occurs, just dismantle the cannon.

"Ah Pao, please bear with it, it might hurt a little."

Xia En patted the cannon body and said with relief: "Give it a try and the bicycle will turn into a motorcycle!"

"strengthen!"

next moment.

The mysterious and strange dark power flowed into the body of Cannon along Xia En's palm.

An indescribable transformation immediately occurred from the cannon.

Dark light flows on its body, and the dark muzzle seems to become deeper and darker. The cannon body is gently vibrating and rhythmic, as if... the breathing of a living creature!

["Filth Crystal"-5! 】

[Estimated strengthening time: 48 hours! 】

Since [Filth Crystal] can only be obtained in special scenes, Xia En just invested 5 points of Filth Crystal to test the waters.

But the changes in this artillery still exceeded his expectations.

"Two days?"

Shane's eyes were full of expectation.

He had a hunch that the enhanced artillery would bring quite a surprise.

…

…

The next morning.

On the deck of the Giant.

Fried was wiping the cannonballs under his feet with a coarse cloth, and his eyes fell on the Black Swan not far away intentionally or unintentionally.

"Hey, Fried, he's watching the wind again!"

A sailor who knew him well waved his hand and said jokingly: "Don't tell me, this Black Swan is really well maintained. It doesn't look like an old ship at all. No wonder it's so fond of people!"

Fried's face froze, but he still said firmly: "I didn't mean that."

"I'm just curious how they can sail the boat with just three people."

The sailor grinned: "Either Captain Shane is a mystic, or he has obtained some relic that controls the ship."

His tone was a little envious, but then he turned curious.

"But it's strange to say that they came to the waters of Coral City to salvage, didn't they?"

"Why haven't I seen them going into the sea in the past two days?"

In fact, Fried had similar doubts.

The distance between the two ships was not far, and he had been secretly paying attention to the movements on the Black Swan. If someone on the ship dived into the sea, he would not miss it.

Combining what Shane said and his attitude on the boat before, Fried came to a conclusion——

Shane lied!

There are simply not enough salvagers on board the Black Swan, and there may not even be one salvager at all!

Once this is taken as the premise, it is obvious why Shane would do this.

He didn't want to let himself return to the Black Swan, so he made up such a lie to take revenge on himself.

After thinking about this, Fried's mentality instantly became balanced.

He looked at the Black Swan not far away and snorted in his heart: "Huh, sooner or later you will regret missing a crew member like me!"

at this time.

On the deck of the Black Swan, a tall figure wearing armor walked out.

The sailor asked in surprise: "It's An? What does he want to do?"

An is quite famous on Duke Island, and his eye-catching appearance makes him very recognizable.

The armored knight walked to the edge of the deck, and then jumped straight into the sea!

Wow!

The raging water rolled upwards, setting off waves.

"ah?"

On the Titan, everyone who saw this scene exclaimed.

How could anyone jump into the sea wearing this kind of armor?

Do you want to die?

But soon, people saw a shadowy figure swimming under the sea, and its movements were extremely vigorous and smooth.

Freed's eyes widened slightly and he realized something.

"Could it be that he is the salvager on the Black Swan?"

In order to confirm this conjecture, Fried took off his shoes and coat without thinking much, picked up a harpoon and jumped into the sea.

Dive into the sea and the world immediately becomes very different.

Freed opened his eyes and looked for Ann.

He is not a sea tribe, but he has mastered a special secret method of breathing, so he can move in the sea for a long time.

It was with this ability that he could call himself one of the best salvagers on the Titan.

Soon, Fried found the armor-clad figure further away.

But the strange thing is that next to An, there is a vague and mysterious black figure, like a person wearing a black robe.

But because of the distance, Fried couldn't see his appearance clearly.

"Who is that?"

"Shane is still the little girl?"

"Strange...when did he dive into the sea?"

Freed suppressed his doubts and decided to follow the two men.

Not for anything else, just out of a mentality of not admitting defeat.

An's strength on the shore is far better than his own, but in the sea, the situation is different!

However, it only lasted for a while.

Freed looked down again and was stunned.

Where are people?

He looked around hard and saw the two figures below again.

The distance between them has more than doubled.

"So fast..."

Freed was frightened and had some bad premonitions.

But he gritted his teeth and dived into the sea at full speed.

Not long after, Fried followed the two of them to the coral-covered city.

When he arrived here, Fried was extremely vigilant, carefully watching the surrounding corals, and greatly slowed down his swimming speed.

He knew that there were strange and dangerous monsters hidden in this city.

Once they are disturbed, they can only flee in a panic, which basically declares the failure of this dive.

This is the experience gained by countless salvagers in their lives.

But the two people in front of them seemed not to notice anything and were still walking through the city without any scruples.

Seeing this, Fried frowned slightly: "Don't they even have this basic common sense?"

The next moment, what he was most worried about happened!

A corpse parasitized by coral was disturbed by the water flow. It suddenly stood up, revealing a colorful and terrifying face, and rushed towards the two of them with a strange posture!

boom!

A dull sound sounded underwater.

I saw the man in black robe unpretentiously swinging his straight fist. With just one punch, the body of the coral monster fell apart and turned into countless chaotic fragments.

Also shattered was what Fried called "common sense!"
