I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 165 - 148: Doctor Pupa 5
[In this vast flat area stands a giant stone statue, a colossal Winged Serpent biting its own abdomen.]
[Below the Winged Serpent statue, a dense gathering of Sea Serpents, coiled tightly, bow their heads towards the Winged Serpent statue, uniformly biting their own abdomens, seemingly performing some sort of ritual.]
[Upon closer inspection, you find they've long since died, leaving only unrotted corpses.]
[You approach the Winged Serpent statue and find a stone tablet.]
[You try to read, but realize the writing is incomprehensible.]
"..."
Rogel, somewhat speechless, pulls out the Memory Fish Scale.
Although he can now use the Listening Necklace, it only allows him to listen and not read, so he can only hope the Memory Fish Scale will work.
Though unsure of its effectiveness, it's worth a try.
[You use the Memory Fish Scale, but still fail to understand the writing.]
Great!
Rogel, with a crestfallen expression, restarts the scenario.
Then, he starts showcasing his traditional skill, scraping the ground.
This time, he only finds some materials fallen from the Sea Serpents.
After searching for a while longer, Rogel gains nothing and returns to the starting point.
[With the meticulous guidance of the Wraith General, you gain Swordsmanship skill experience.]
[With the bonus of Knowledge Comprehension Lv5, your learning speed has increased.]
[Swordsmanship Level increases, current level Lv5.]
Coincidentally, Rogel's main body practice for Swordsmanship is nearly complete.
Though auto-exploration is generated in text form, the time consumption is based on the actual exploration circumstances of Deep Sea Blood Touch.
"Let's explore again tomorrow, first, let's try the ship's wheel."
Rogel rubs his hands together.
And even if the only gain today was this one Secret Pattern Ship Rudder, it's quite substantial.
Not to mention he also gained two Green Residual Spirits.
Upon returning to the Gelin, Rogel eagerly heads to the deck.
[Greetings, Captain!]>
Noemi formally reports to Rogel.
[No need to be so serious.]
He feels this werewolf girl is quite charming.
"Her pixelated appearance is quite cute."
Rogel smiles in front of the screen.
Noemi's pixelated image shows large, fluffy wolf ears and tail.
[Huh? Captain, what are you doing with the ship's wheel?]
Noemi looks puzzled at Rogel holding the ship's wheel.
The Secret Pattern Ship Rudder looks like an ordinary ship's wheel, but its material and engravings differ from a regular one.
It seems to be made of some sort of stone, with specially carved patterns.
[This is the new ship's wheel.]
Rogel gets busy.
Quickly, he replaces the old ship's wheel and installs the Secret Pattern Ship Rudder.
[Buzz----]
As the Secret Pattern Ship Rudder fits onto the Gelin, the entire ship emits a blue energy wave, settling into peace shortly after.
The commotion alerts Lina and others who are practicing nearby.
[What happened?]
Lina frowns.
The sensation just now felt like neither a cannon attack nor a collision but more of a spiritual tremor.
After some searching, they find Rogel standing by the ship's wheel.
[Just in time, let's test the functionality of this new ship's wheel.]
Rogel smiles as the group arrives, then coughs lightly.
[Get ready!]
What the heck!
Lina feels perplexed, unsure of Rogel's new antics.
Out of safety, she grabs the railing nearby. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Sharp turn!
Grabbing the Secret Pattern Ship Rudder, Rogel silently activates its function.
Accompanied by rapid Spiritual Value depletion.
The rudder begins emanating a pale blue energy, swiftly transmitting to the Gelin's hull.
Whoa——
The Gelin's hull starts to sway, slicing through surrounding seawater.
Lina and everyone exclaims, quickly grabbing hold of nearby items.
Next, under the invisible energy, the Gelin rapidly turns to a new direction.
"Five seconds!"
Rogel starts counting silently during the test.
Completing the whole turning maneuver, the Gelin, thanks to the Secret Pattern Ship Rudder, takes about five seconds!
Undoubtedly, the functionality is powerful, proving essential in critical moments.
"Probably able to turn twice in a short time."
Rogel gauges his Spiritual Value consumption from earlier.
Then, he directs the ship's wheel to steer the Gelin back to its original course.
[What's going on?]
Lina is genuinely shocked.
They all witnessed what happened earlier.
The Gelin completed a sharp turn in such a short time.
[This is the Secret Pattern Ship Rudder, very powerful.]
Rogel pats the ship's wheel in front of him, explaining.
[Secret Pattern Ship Rudder?]
Mira's interest immediately goes to related knowledge.
Rogel nods to resolve her query.
[This Secret Pattern Ship Rudder has two special functions, but it consumes the helmsman's spirit.]
Then, spotting Mira's curiosity, he further explains.
[It's not my creation, nor do I possess related knowledge.]
After hearing Rogel, Mira seems slightly disappointed.
[Does each steering consume spirit?]
Lina asks.
If using the ship's wheel always consumes spirit, they must consider storing it for crucial times only.
[Of course not.]
Rogel shakes his head, explaining.
If the Secret Pattern Ship Rudder were that cumbersome, it'd be pointless.
It only drains spirit when the user actively utilizes its functions.
[Captain Rogel, didn't you mention two special functions just now?]
[One is turning, what's the other one?]
At this point, Noemi asks curiously.
[The other one, you'll soon experience yourselves.]
Rogel smiles mysteriously, then reaches for the Secret Pattern Ship Rudder.
Upon draining Spiritual Value, a blue energy wave arises around the Gelin.
Soon, a strong push-back sensation follows!
Wow——
The Gelin swiftly slices through the sea surface.
