Chapter 29 - Mark of the Shipwreck

After spending some time, Bick roasted all the octopus limbs.

After that, he opened the trading interface in the God’s domain slate and hung the octopus limbs on it.

[Delicious roasted octopus claw x2 trade mana crystal ]

[Remark: Portion for two days. Moreover, the taste is delicious. This is a golden opportunity!]

Bick directly put up two trading for such deal. He only left two delicious roasted octopus claws for tomorrow.

Just as he was about to close the trade interface, he suddenly received a trade notification.

[You have a successful transaction. You have obtained mana crystal x1!]

[You have a successful transaction. You have obtained mana crystal x1!]

“The transaction was completed so quickly!”

Bick was excited. After checking carefully, he found that there were two transactions. One was the signal drum that had been hung up earlier and the delicious roasted octopus claw that had been hung up today.

Although the roasted kelp and fresh water were still there, Bick estimated that it would not be easy to trade mana crystals for these things. He might as well cancel the other two transactions and package them into one transaction.

[Metal sheet x6, fresh water x4, kelp x2 trade mana crystal]

In this transaction, Bick also added six metal sheets. He believed that if the other party’s development was not good, using these items to trade for mana crystals would definitely not be a loss!

However, he could only wait.

Currently, he only had two mana crystals in his hands. If he wanted to create an octopus soul magic staff, he definitely did not have enough mana crystals. However, if he wanted to create a smart nautical map, the number of mana crystals would be just right.

Thinking of this, Bick opened the principle interface of God’s domain slate.

[Smart nautical map: Wooden board (2/2), sheepskin scroll (1/1), charcoal (0/4), fresh water (1/1), mana crystal powder (0/1)]

If he wanted to create this map, he first needed to create the mana crystal powder. However, the principle interface considerately displayed the manufacturing principle of the mana crystal powder.

[Mana crystal powder: Mana crystal (2/2)]

Bick glanced at it and immediately filled the two mana crystals in his hand. He chose to create them.

After a moment, a handful of purple powder that was emitting a faint luster appeared in his hand.

Next, he created four charcoals and gathered the materials.

“Then, create a smart nautical map!”

As his voice fell, his hands, which were wearing impatient gloves, began to work quickly.

In less than ten seconds, a sheepskin scroll appeared in his hand. As the mana crystal powder was sprinkled on it, the map actually began to emit a faint purple light, as if it was a precious holy item.

Bick opened the nautical map and found a small black arrow in the middle of the map. It seemed to be where he was, and the direction of the arrow should be the direction he was going.

The entire map was originally black, but as his raft moved, the area around the arrow became blue.

As he moved, the blue area became larger and larger, forming a slow-moving trajectory.

Bick felt that if he happened to pass by a small island, the map would mark the land. Right now, as far as the eye could see, it was a vast sea. There was nothing on the map that could be used as a marker.

Although this thing was not useful for the time being, it would definitely be very useful in the future.

If he had a smart nautical map previously, he could go back according to the mark on the map and harvest the newly grown resources again after collecting the resources on the island for a month.

By the time he was done with all this, it was already close to dusk.

Bick stuffed the nautical map into his pocket and prepared to have a good night rest.

After working all night yesterday, he was indeed very tired after the excitement.

Einstein seemed to be tired, too. He landed early in the bird’s nest covered with hay in the observation deck and fell into a deep sleep.

Bick stretched himself and returned to his luxurious wooden bed. He soon fell asleep…

The next morning, Bick woke up very early.

Probably because he had rested well, he thought of signing in the moment he woke up.

[Ding! Daily sign-in successful!]

[Received the mark of a shipwreck!]

“The mark of a shipwreck?”

Bick was slightly stunned and quickly looked at the specific introduction of the sign-in reward.

[The mark of the shipwreck]

[Level: unknown]

[Explanation: The location of the shipwreck, any situation may be encountered.]

This short explanation made Bick a little confused. Moreover, in what way was this reward sent to him?

Bick did not get anything from his hands. Where was this mark of the shipwreck?

While he was puzzled, Bick suddenly recalled the nautical map that he had just created yesterday and quickly opened the sheepskin scroll.

Bick took a closer look and suddenly realized that this reward could only be given out based on the map.

He was secretly glad that he had created the nautical map yesterday. Otherwise, he would not have been able to receive today’s sign-in reward!

On the smart nautical map, somewhere to the left of the black arrowhead, there was a small green light spot that was shining in the black area that was being explored.

“Looks like this is the place!”

Bick smiled and picked up his magic alloy paddle. He adjusted the direction and paddled towards the green light dot.

The speed of the raft was getting faster and faster. It was moving on the map at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As his speed increased, the arrowhead also became longer.

“The design is not bad. The arrowhead can also represent the speed of the journey!”

Bick felt that the map was worth it. It could mark the location and indicate the direction. It even had the function of a speedometer!

After adjusting the direction a few times, he was getting closer and closer to the location of the shipwreck.

However, from the surface of the sea, he could only see the vast sea. Only by comparing the location of the green dot on the map could he determine the location of the shipwreck.

Bick began to slow down because the map showed that the locations of the raft and the shipwreck had almost overlapped.

At this moment, Einstein, who had been looking around curiously, suddenly let out a cautious cry.

“Ou ou! Ou ou ou!”

“What’s wrong, Einstein?”

Bick looked at Einstein in confusion and found that he seemed to be at a loss too. He only felt that there was a strange atmosphere here.

Frowning, Bick thought to himself, “Could it be that there is still some danger at the location of the shipwreck?”

He suddenly remembered that the mark of the shipwreck had a very general explanation.

[Explanation: The location of the shipwreck may encounter any situation.]

“In other words, coming here may not only have benefits, but there may also be unknown dangers?”
