The Cursed Ship

Zheng Yang looked at the spirit boat in front of him and felt that it was absorbing the power of the moonlight like breathing, but in his heart he thought about setting up the full sails to bask in the moonlight, only to find that the spirit boat had been blown thousands of miles away by the sea wind the next day.

Feeling a bit sore.

After basking with the spirit boat for a while, Zheng Yang took up the sails and dragged it back into the sea, and tied it to a stone pile at the pier. At this time, he felt that the spirit ship was still absorbing the moonlight. Although it was not as fast as the absorption speed of the spirit sail, it was much faster than before without the spirit sail. At least he could clearly feel it.

In this case, Zheng Yang accepted it better, and went home to wash and sleep with peace of mind.

The sea breeze is very light tonight, but the sound of the ebb and flow of the tide has never changed. Zheng Yang fell asleep with the machete in his arms, hoping to bring the machete with him when he had that strange dream again. As a result, he still didn't enter strange dreams tonight, let alone have bad dreams because of the existence of the curse. In deep sleep, there is a vague sense of ups and downs, as comfortable as sleeping in a cradle.

After waking up at dawn, Zheng Yang activated the information interface of the spirit boat as soon as he opened his eyes. He could feel the psionic core of the spirit ship—that is, the shell embedded in the ship was full of energy, which surprised him and looked forward to it.

"Could it be full of psionic energy overnight?"

And what surprised Zheng Yang was that he could perceive the underwater situation through the spirit ship, within a radius of two meters from the center of the spirit ship, including the movement of sea water, the appearance and activities of creatures, and the level of detail was as fine as hair. The size is higher than what can be seen with the naked eye in the water.

This is not his own perception ability, but the spirit ship's. It works through the magic circle. Zheng Lun only shares the perception of the spirit ship, and can block it at any time.

This feeling is really amazing and cool!

Zheng Yang couldn't wait to look at the information on the interface.

"Basic Information:

Hull: first class spirit ship

Status: complete

Feng Ling: Scaled Demon Insect (Larva)

Psionic Core: Moonlight Shell

Psychic reserve: 100/100 (sufficient psychic power, awakened ship spirit, activated automatic transformation and automatic repair ability)

Base speed: 5 knots

Attack Bonus: 5%

Defense Bonus: 5%

Power bonus: 5%

...

Equipment information:

Main drive: Sloop

Auxiliary drive: manual paddle

Figurehead: Scaled Demonic Worm

Head skills: none

Remark:……"

After reading the message of the spirit boat, and pretending not to see the notes again, Zheng Yang turned over and got out of bed, and ran directly to the pier without having time to wash up and make breakfast.

"It's strange. The spirit ship in the travel notes can only charge 20% of its energy in one night with full sails. Why can my spirit ship be filled with spiritual energy in one night without sails? Does my spirit ship have some heaven-defying attributes? "

"There is also the ship spirit awakened in a state of sufficient spiritual energy, and the ability to automatically transform..."

At this time, Zheng Yang also sensed a very weak and ignorant spirituality on the spirit ship, and beside the thumbnail of the spirit ship's information interface, there was an image of a bug. Scaled Demonic Worm. When Zheng Yang's consciousness touched the image of this monster, the information interface changed to:

"Ship Spirit: Scaled Demon Insect (young)

Grade 1

Attack Power: Weak

Defense: Weak

Skills: perception extension (2 meters), automatic transformation, automatic repair

...

Abilities: Execute some commands, and can be called to participate in battles; can grow by devouring psionic substances and help the spirit ship to recharge.

Remarks: The scaled monster is a bottom-level insect-like creature that lives in another world and can fly quickly. Adult scaled insects are ferocious and bloodthirsty, with strong bite attack power and certain defense; juvenile scaled insects are only food for birds. "

Feeling so weak!

However, it turns out that the perception, automatic transformation, and automatic repair of the spirit ship are realized through the ship spirit.

Listed as a Ship Spirit skill.

Zheng Yang rushed to the pier like a gust of wind, jumped into the spirit boat and stroked excitedly. When he came into contact with the spirit ship, his feelings were more intuitive. He probably understood the meaning of the ship spirit's function and automatic transformation ability, so he was even more excited.

Before remodeling the spirit ship, he had to do it himself, first install the parts, fix the nails that need to be repaired, at least get a rough outline, and finally control the magic circle to activate the new parts to automatically optimize the shape and joint process.

Now the ship spirit's automatic transformation ability after awakening only needs Zheng Yang to set a plan on the structure diagram, and the spirit ship can automatically list the required materials according to the optimized plan, and wait for Zheng Yang to pile the materials into the spirit ship. On the ship, give an order, and the spirit ship can activate the magic circle, and automatically complete the transformation after a certain period of time according to the set plan.

Of course, this process requires the consumption of spiritual energy, just like there is an intelligent robot on the spirit ship executing instructions to control the transformation.

The amazing thing is that Zheng Yang only needs to design a rough structure, and Lingchuan can optimize the plan by himself, avoiding the embarrassment of laymen building broken ships.

Needless to say, automatic repair, after the hull within the coverage of the magic circle is damaged, spiritual energy can be consumed to automatically repair it within a certain period of time.

Looking at the ability of the ship spirit, the first one can execute some commands, and Zheng Yang probably understands that it means that the spirit can be consumed by turning the winch to raise or furl the sail, adjust the angle of the sail, control the rudder, and anchor and retract. Anchor, etc., these operations are actually completed by consuming psionic energy to run the magic circle, saving Zheng Yang's manual operations.

However, the current device is too crude, and Zheng Yang still needs to manually control it!

"There is still a call!"

Zheng Yang read silently, and a black beetle appeared on the bow. The guy who used to be as big as a human head is now only the size of a thumb, which has shrunk very badly.

Looking at this cicada-like insect, Zheng Yang fell silent.

Such a little guy, summoned to join the battle? No wonder the attack power is marked as weak, not even as good as Zhan Wuscum!

Zheng Yang jumped ashore, dug out a sandworm on the beach, and commanded the ship spirit to fight with his mind. Then I saw the magic worm pounced on it, picked up the head of the sand worm and swallowed it in its stomach.

In two breaths, the entire sandworm was eaten and wiped clean by the boat spirit, without even spitting out the sand. It even conveyed a little bit of joy to Zheng Yang.

Zheng Yang gave the order to let Chuan Ling hunt sandworms or bugs by himself, but unfortunately, this guy seems to have too low intelligence to understand, or he has already eaten a single sandworm, and there is no movement in a daze.

Zheng Yang dug another sandworm and ordered it to attack, and then it ate the sandworm again.

Zheng Yang understood, this product has to be a master, and he will only eat it when it is brought to his mouth! Considering that the function of this little thing is mainly reflected in the automatic transformation of the spirit ship, Zheng Yang decided to raise it.

After the research was almost done, Zheng Yang began to design the next modification plan of the spirit ship. He activates the information interface of the spirit ship, and uses his thoughts on the structure diagram to control its expansion, lengthening, deepening of draft, adding decks, loading cabins, engines, furniture...

Then there is a long list of materials and parts synchronously listed next to the interface: wood, steel, gum, various plastics, cables, canvas, engines... Finally, the spiritual power requirement is 3000...

Zheng Yang understood something again.

The more ready-made parts are provided during the transformation process, such as cabinets and stools that are similar to the design plan, the easier the transformation will be and the less spiritual energy will be consumed. And things like engines and TVs must be ready-made. Spirit Boat can use magic circles to connect things together and optimize the connection process, but it cannot directly use materials to help him manufacture these complex products.

The automatic transformation ability seems to be limited to basic transformations such as the structure and integrated facilities of the spirit ship. Of course, it is up to Zheng Yang to choose whether to activate furniture or not, as long as he has more spirits.

Then came the most important thing: consuming 3000 points of spiritual energy at one time, what does this mean?

It shows that the upper limit of spiritual energy reserves can far exceed 100. Then why does Zheng Yang's spirit ship only have an upper limit of 100 psionic energy reserves? He looked at the two information "Level 1 Spirit Ship" and "Psionic Energy Core", and then thought of the concept of "Evolutionary Ship", guessing that these two aspects might limit the upper limit of spiritual energy reserves.

The spirit ship needs to evolve and level up.

Then Zheng Yang thought about why his spirit boat was full of psionic energy overnight, while others only charged 20%. Because the upper limit of his spiritual energy reserve is too low, it is only 100 points when it is full, while 20% of others may be thousands of points.

With these understandings, Zheng Yang gave up the idea of ​​one-step completion, tinkering, and finally settled on a preliminary transformation plan that can be completed with only 100 psionic energy consumption, and he can provide materials in a short period of time. This still takes into account the factor of moonlight supplementation in the moonlight night.

The plan is very simple. It is to expand the shape and armor plate of the spirit boat, and separate the storage dark room, fresh water tank and fish warehouse with the dragon skeleton.

"The old spare planks on the boat are not enough, so we need to continue looking for materials. There is a sunken ship on the back of the island, and some can be salvaged and reused. You can also go up the mountain and saw some, but the raw wood consumes more spiritual energy when used. Many, preferably sawn into planks..."
