Grand Voyage : Surviving on a Ghost Ship-Chapter 126 - Chop, chop, chop, chop wood!
After being upgraded, the flintlock gun saw a comprehensive improvement in both power and firing speed.
A tree as thick as a thigh (1) could be broken with just two shots.
If this were fired at an ordinary person, there wouldn’t even be a chance for rescue.
Yang Yi fired continuously, felling a tree roughly every five seconds, making his logging efficiency incredibly high.
If it were a banana tree, however, Yang Yi would take out the Sea Serpent’s Fang and cut it down manually to collect the fire bananas.
Using a gun to blast apart a banana tree would likely cause the fire bananas to fall and get damaged.
Moreover, banana trees yielded very little usable wood, probably due to their high-water content, with each tree only counting for about 3 to 4 units of wood.
Other trees varied greatly in yield, mostly ranging from 10 to 15 units, while thigh-thick trees could be converted into 20 units of wood.
Yang Yi worked without rest, logging and gathering fire bananas nonstop.
After nearly four hours, he had “cut down” a third of the island’s trees.
For the following two hours, he planned to transport some of the logs back first and sell them at night.
For Yang Yi, chopping trees was easy since he could use his gun. Transporting them, however, was a different story.
After two hours of hard labour, using both his hands and feet, Yang Yi managed to haul over 400 trees to the shoreline.
As for the remaining ones, he planned to go back for them tomorrow. It wasn’t like they were going anywhere!
Back on the deck, Yang Yi operated the grappling hooks of the Nightmare Star, loading all the logs into the cargo hold. Once converted into wood resources, the total came to 4,789 units.
At a rate of 30 Shell Coins per unit, the haul was worth nearly 150,000!
With that done, Yang Yi steered the Nightmare Star away from the shore, stopping 500 meters off the coast and deploying the Twilight Veil.
He had no intention of logging at night, and besides, he only had 40 stamina left — he needed to rest.
Although his attributes would increase at night, he didn’t want to mess up his sleep schedule. That was a habit of werewolves, not his!
