Chapter 19

Parking the boat, Ethan turned around near the beach, at first he wanted to set up his camp on the beach by the sea, but after observing for a while, he found that it was too close to the sea.

"It's good here."

Looking back, it happened to be a small soil slope, which is also a certain distance away from the woods.

Slightly higher terrain can also avoid the seawater spreading up by the high tide.

"Next, I have to build a shed."

Ethan looked up at the sky. The sky was clear. He doesn't know when there will be clouds. It seems that the next second it will rain. If he can't build a place to block wind and rain in the shortest time, he can only go back to the boat to rest.

Floating on the sea for so long, he really wants to sleep on the land.

Even the exploration of this island has to be put aside for the time being.

"Fortunately, in the dark world, I learned how to use simple materials to make tents."

With Ethan's current strength, he couldn't cut down the big tree with no difficulty. Then using the dazzling sword technique to chop the wood into the material you need, and then create a perfect wood house with amazing craftsmanship.

His current strength can only allow him to collect and carry some slightly sturdy branches. The thick wrist is already the limit.

On the roof of the shed, he found some relatively large and thick leaves, and then peeled off the bark from the branches and twisted them into a rope. Combine these messy things together to form a simple tent.

Ethan repaired back and forth and finally looked at the grotesquely shaped tent in front of him. He could only helplessly smile and said, "It can shelter the wind and rain."

Although the tent is not very beautiful, it is still very strong. It shouldn't be blown down by the wind...

Dropping into the tent, Ethan lies on the bed made of big leaves.

"Let's take a look around the island first."

If possible, Ethan wants to explore every inch of the island, around the island, and then Close to the center in a circle to ensure that he can walk every part of the entire island and increase the probability of finding the magic stone.

But he also knows that this approach is not desirable because it is too time-consuming.

After many adventurers find the island, their first choice is always to enter the most Central Zone for exploration. It seems that having the most valuable things in the center of the island has become a common rule.

"It must be wrong, otherwise the person told me that there are magic stones on almost all islands, it will become common sense that everyone knows."

It is realistic But an old sailor like Wood, who has been floating at sea for several years, doesn't necessarily know this.

"Let's find it slowly, first turn around, select standard reference objects in several directions, and then choose a direction to explore inside."

Going in one direction each time is already the most practical way at the moment to cover more ground.

"I'm the only one. It's still a bit of a hassle to do this kind of thing. It would be nice if I could have a helper."

People are always social creatures, at first when they go out to sea, Ethan has just left the village and has been with many people for several years. When he first went to sea, everything was fresh and he didn't feel much about it.

Later, there was pressure to survive, and he found that the sea was not peaceful, and he also had an urgent need to improve his strength, so he didn't have the energy to think about these things for a while.

Now that the strength is improved, the safety is guaranteed, and the pressure of survival is suddenly less. In addition, he has taken risks with Ishandra and Zul for a while, and he is used to having teammates.

"In my situation, teammates are not easy to find."

While over and over again, Ethan fell asleep with the sound slowly getting louder, and in his dream, he had a lot of Teammates, there is also a very large ship, a group of partners live happily on the ship, and after repeated adventures, finally found the legendary endless land...

When Ethan's eyes opened, The sun has risen, and the warm sunlight has heated up his simple tent, and the remaining rainwater last night has disappeared.

Walking out of the tent and washing with the rainwater specially stored last night, Ethan remembered his previous dream.

"Why are there all men on Laozi's boat in my dream? Didn't even a girl flicker there? What a good boat!"

Angrily fell the leaves in his hand On the ground, Ethan put on the armor that Chasi had given him.

He wore this armor for a long time except when he first returned to the calm sea, and then he didn't wear it again. He just took it out for cleaning and maintenance every day.

Armor, even light armor, is not so comfortable to wear.

At the same time, Ethan also finally understood why the Knights in the Middle Ages, when wearing armor, would put a layer of battle robe on the outside, and also used a cloak to cover the entire back.

"I used to think that cloak was only used for decoration. It turned out not to be..."

The inevitable thing about metal armor is that it will absorb heat when exposed to direct sunlight. Covered by cloak and tabard, in slightly hot weather, it is a metal oven that can move.

In winter, metal will absorb air-conditioning, and if it is not wrapped in a thick cloak, it will become a mobile freezer. The armor Chaxi gave him, not at all, the shirt, cloak, and other accessories, so Ethan couldn't stand it after only wearing it for a long time and had to take it off.

This time Ethan will wear it because he can't know what dangers exist on this small island. It is better to wear all the equipment just in case.

At the same time, apart from walking around the island at first, most of the island is covered with dense woods, which are blocked by leaves to avoid direct sunlight. Ethan doesn't have to worry about his armor becoming an oven.

"Or, consider installing a magic array that adjusts the temperature on the armor."

Ethan insisted on walking around the island, feeling that the armor was getting hotter and hotter.

Fortunately, this island is not particularly big. In addition, Ethan's stamina and feet are not weak now, so he quickly walked around the island and returned to his camp.

"The island is not big. I only walked around in the middle of the night. I can explore the woods while it's still dark."

By the way, he still needs to look for some food, he has seen some water Fruit Tree along the way. It was a specialty of this World, and he had this kind of fruit in the materials he exchanged for the guild before.

The name of this fruit is "Fruit". It is a kind of coconut-like fruit. It is smaller than a coconut. Its azure skin is very fragile. A crack can be opened with a single blow. The interior is hollow, and the water with the aroma of plants is stored inside.

In addition to the clean water prepared separately, this fruit is the most important water source for this World. Almost every adventurer's boat will store as much fruit as possible.

The water in the bucket has been stored for a long time. If there is no water purification magic stone, it will rot and become undrinkable, but this kind of fruit can be stored for a long time.

Apart from this, Ethan guessed that the water in this fruit still contains enough Vitamin, because, in this barren world, many adventurers rely on dried salted fish and temporarily caught seafood as food. The intake of vegetables is very small, but the various sailing diseases that he knows do not appear. The most likely reason is the existence of these fruits.

Before, Ethan relied on his ability to make water, so he didn't bring much fruit, but now unexpectedly found a lot on this island, he can fill up a warehouse of his ship.

"I don't know if there is anything else?"

In the following days, Ethan's life became very regular again. He got up every day to wash and eat and then he started exploring the island according to the previous plan, collecting foods he knew--the ones he didn't know he took a sample and prepared to bring it back to the guild for questioning.

"I made a mistake. I should buy a book of variously known food illustrations and the like."

Ethan, after all, has no rich experience, he is still exploring many things now Among them, many rules in this world are different from their previous lives, which is normal for a while. Fortunately, he will always keep his mistakes in mind and avoid making them again.

As he explored like this, Ethan slowly approached the Central Zone of the island.

There is nothing strange about the Central Zone of this island. It is just a small soil slope. Compared with the surrounding greenery, it looks a bit desolate and there is no root grass.

Ethan has been here several times before but never found anything strange.

"Is it underground?"

If that is the case, it would be troublesome. Ethan didn't bring any tools for digging. Could he use his long sword to dig the soil? If Kasha knew it, would she cross the plane and stab himself to death?

While Ethan was still hesitating whether to continue exploring other unknown areas first or to dig here first, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the woods ahead, followed by a few people who walked out of the woods.

Ethan looked up and found that there were acquaintances among them.

It was Rodney of the two people who had been saved by him, and he had to leave State Island early because he noticed that Rodney seemed to be malicious towards him. Sure enough, the next guy's behavior perfectly confirmed Ethan's judgment.

"Ha, it turned out to be you! We met here, you are really bad luck!" Rodney didn't expect to hit Ethan, but he was stunned. After a second, he immediately looked excited.

"Captain, this kid! He has the magic stone for battle he got from Wood!"
