【Nightmare — Class 1 | Durability: 300/300 | Capacity: 400 units | Speed: 40 knots】【Ship Skills】Nightmare: Sleeping on this ship causes nightmares; stamina recovery efficiency -75%.Curse of the Angler’s Bait: This ship is cursed — it cannot catch normal fish.【Description】This ship has drifted on the sea for hundreds of years, and at last, it has found a new owner...Yang Yi’s expression turned grim after reading the ship’s information.This ship was a ghost ship.The hull was covered with barnacles and seaweed — who knows how many years it had gone without cleaning.The deck was damp and slippery; each step made it creak eerily.He’d played plenty of horror games before.And in this kind of setting, there’s usually something lurking aboard.But after searching every corner, he didn’t find a single thing that could move.Yang Yi exhaled in relief.He really didn’t want to start off the game by having a bloody fight with some random unknown monster.After exploring, he had a general understanding of the ship’s layout.The vessel was about twelve meters long, consisting of several parts — the helm, captain’s cabin, deck, and cargo hold.The helm was on a raised platform at the bow, giving a wide field of view.Behind it was the captain’s cabin, furnished with a bed and a few simple pieces of furniture.Further back stood the ship’s central courtyard, with a tall mast towering overhead.At the stern was the cargo hold, leading to the ship’s interior where supplies could be stored.Yang Yi checked inside the cargo hold — it was completely empty.Not even insects were inside, only a wave of damp, disgusting mildew smell hitting his nose.His starting supplies were zero...After all, this ghost ship had been drifting for countless years — it would be strange if it still had food or water.Yang Yi opened his journal and switched to the World Channel, wanting to see what others had discovered.Most of the chat was people showing off their ships.The majority had ordinary vessels, though a few had special ones — some of them particularly eye-catching.【Gale — Class 1 | Durability: 800/800 | Capacity: 500 units | Speed: 70 knots】Ship Skill: Ride the Wind and Break the Waves — Increases speed by 100% for 5 minutes.Description: You won’t even get to taste my exhaust — trust me!That was likely the fastest ship currently.Other “whiteboard” (basic) ships, depending on size, averaged between 30–40 knots.Larger ships tended to have higher durability but slower speed.By comparison, Yang Yi’s Nightmare had above-average speed.【Sakura — Class 1 | Durability: 1000/1000 | Capacity: 1000 units | Speed: 35 knots】Skill: Blessed Radiance — The cherry blossom tree on deck emits waves of holy light, occasionally altering crew attributes and possibly triggering evolution!Description: Let’s hope the crew remains human.After this information appeared, the World Channel went unusually silent for several seconds.Then—“Haha! My ship’s amazing, right? I think I’m evolving — Wryyyyy!”“You sure that’s not mutation?”“Sakura, huh? You’d better steer clear. If I run into you, I swear I’ll shove a cannon up your XX!”The speaker revealed his ship name — Iron Heart — no longer anonymous.He even attached a photo from his journal’s screenshot feature.It was a massive iron warship, armed to the teeth, with twenty cannons lining its sides — sheer destructive power, full of martial spirit.But when everyone saw its speed — just ten knots — the chat exploded with laughter.“Baka! Talk to me when you survive till tomorrow!”“Damn it! You just wait, you piece of—”The rest devolved into censored swearing.Yang Yi noted silently,“Looks like the system automatically translates all languages into one’s own native tongue…”He typed in the chat:“Count me in!”Then scrolled further upward, until he found something more interesting.“Anyone tried fishing yet?”“Quiet, I’m fishing right now!”“You can fish? Suddenly I don’t want to move anymore.”“I fish once a week — and that session lasts a week!”“Just baited my spot!”“Your ship’s moving, you idiot! What’s the point of baiting?”“Damn it! You could’ve said so earlier — my black bread’s gone!”“Guess what I caught — a bottle of Farmer’s Three Punches!”That last message caught Yang Yi’s eye — if you could fish and get drinks, that /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ was something!He remembered the fishing rod on his deck.【Name: Moldy Fishing Rod Covered in Barnacles】【Type: Tool】【Quality: Common】【Description: Trust me — you won’t like what it catches.Reduces the chance of catching normal fish, slightly increases the chance of catching abnormal items.】“Abnormal items… maybe including freshwater!”Yang Yi guessed.But before he started fishing, he adjusted his ship’s heading and speed.He didn’t have a destination yet — so he set it to the default direction and sailed straight ahead at full speed.Far in the distance, on the horizon, he could see a faint black mist — probably the world’s boundary line.So moving forward was the safest choice.Ship control was quite simple — all magically operated.He just had to hold the helm to steer and adjust speed or deploy mechanisms like the grappling hook.The overall feel was similar to a naval survival game.Players could use the grappling hook to snag floating objects drifting by.As for propulsion…Yang Yi looked up at the mast, where a few shredded scraps of cloth hung limply.He decided not to think too hard about it and focused on collecting driftwood.【Rotten Wood +1】【Rotten Wood +1】【Tattered Cloth +1】【Rotten Wood +1】His ship’s log kept updating with new activity entries.The gameplay was reminiscent of Gold Miner, except the targets were moving objects.Each salvaged item was automatically converted into materials and stored in the cargo hold, viewable in the log.Every piece of rotten wood had a chance of yielding one unit of lumber, and tattered cloth gave one unit of fabric —the chance was roughly 10%.After catching over a hundred pieces of debris, Yang Yi ended up with five units of lumber and three of fabric — three hours of work, not very efficient.But it was a skill-based task — with practice, he could become faster.These materials could be used to upgrade the ship.To upgrade the Nightmare to Level 2 required:【Lumber ×200 | Fabric ×100 | Captain’s Remains】He already knew what those “remains” referred to — the skeleton in the captain’s cabin.So that couldn’t be discarded.Gathering that many materials would take at least a week.And this was only a Level 1 ship — higher levels would surely require even more.But upgrading with a corpse...Yang Yi suddenly realized that special ships might need unique materials for upgrading.He immediately checked the chat again — and sure enough, he was right.Normal “whiteboard” ships needed far fewer materials:【Lumber ×100 | Fabric ×50】 — no corpses required.Meanwhile, the Iron Heart warship required steel for its upgrade.“Damn it! Where am I supposed to find steel in the middle of the ocean?!”“Everyone knows iron sinks — it’s at the bottom of the sea.”“Speak for yourself! Fishermen can catch anything — I just fished up one unit of steel!”“Huh?”“Buying steel at high prices! Anyone sells me steel, I’ll make them my underling!”“Baka! Talk to me when you survive — the black mist’s almost on you!”“Sakura, huh? Don’t you dare stay anonymous! I’ll find you if it’s the last thing I do!”Yang Yi closed the journal.Looks like having a special ship isn’t all advantage — the upgrade materials were harder to get, which meant they might fall behind in levels.He lifted his fishing rod and prepared to fish.
