Navigator: I have a double six-story house

The remaining few loot items on the table are the spoils from this Hell dungeon.

The first item is the fixed output of the complete strategy guide.

Two gold medals, the ultimate prize.

Its functions include, but are not limited to, ship upgrades, building enhancements, and the purchase of special items...

If you're really feeling down, you can even exchange your money for gold coins with the natives at Midway.

However, none of these uses were within Su Qing's consideration.

For him, this gold medal had only one purpose: to activate the Shuangliu House.

The second item was a jewel that shimmered with a green light.

Su Qing had seen this pearl on the map of Shuangliu House not long ago, only the color was different.

[Special Item: Skill Orb #77 (Use to obtain the skill Explosive Throw).]

[Explosive Projectiles: All projectiles have a chance to explode upon impact, dealing additional damage.]

Su Qing raised the precious pearl, and green light flowed through the captain's cabin.

He glanced sideways at Wang Yao, who was lounging casually in the chair.

"This skill orb isn't suitable for you, but it's quite suitable for me, so I'll just use it."

"Next time there's something good, I'll give it to you first."

Wang Yaoteng stood up from his chair and touched Su Qing's forehead with his palm, but Su Qing slapped his hand away.

"Su-zai, are you sick with a fever, or did you mess up your brain in that dungeon run?"

Su Qing felt humiliated when Wang Yao told her that she wasn't smart enough.

"What do you mean?"

Wang Yao snatched the skill orb from his hand and examined it closely.

"First of all, in this Age of Exploration, you are the captain and I am just a crew member. The allocation of crew members is up to you."

"Secondly, given our relationship, why are we arguing about allocation? Let whoever is suitable use it."

Su Qing understood what Wang Yao meant.

Now it's the Age of Exploration, and the relationships between people have long since changed. He needs to adapt to the role of captain as soon as possible.

As they moved forward, there would be more crew members on the ship than just him, Wang Yao, and Su Ya.

As the captain, he needs to have absolute control over the ship.

He pondered for a moment, then nodded. "I understand, thank you."

Wang Yao patted him on the shoulder.

"Relax, relax, we're not talking about these things anymore."

"Besides, this skill really isn't suitable for me."

He casually tossed the skill orb to Su Qing. This thing, which would make others fight tooth and nail for it outside, was like an ordinary glass ball in his hands.

"Besides, what use is this skill to someone who uses a shield?"

"Throw the shield out and blow it up, then wait to die?"

"Do I look like someone with a mental disability?"

After saying that, he glanced at Su Qing, but Su Qing did not smile at his joke.

Instead, she shook her head, sighed, and smacked his lips, patting his shoulder twice.

That look seemed to say, "Brother, you've finally realized you're an idiot."

"Hello!"

"What do you mean by that?!"

Wang Yao got anxious.

Su Qing finally couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

"Haha, just kidding, don't take it seriously."

Wang Yao's face darkened, and he didn't say anything more.

After all that commotion, Su Qing figured it out, stopped worrying, and directly used the skill orb.

In the Age of Exploration, skills were far rarer than equipment. He couldn't keep such a valuable item for trading; using it himself was the best option.

The jewel shattered in his hand with a crack, and a green light entered his palm.

After the light faded, a new skill called [Explosive Projectile] appeared in his skill bar.

Su Qing did not immediately try the skill, but instead looked at the next loot.

It was a small, exquisite windmill model, about the size of a palm, and looked exactly like the windmill at the village entrance.

Special Item: The Miller's Windmill (Captain's Cabin Ornament)

[The Miller's Windmill: Slightly increases speed (can be upgraded with special materials)]

Another special item, and it's a decorative piece.

Su Qing's eyes lit up; this was truly a valuable item.

Ornaments are legendary items that are hard to come by and can only be found by chance.

Although the description only mentions a slight increase in speed, the increase doesn't seem to be particularly significant.

However, what makes these ornaments special is that they can be stacked infinitely!

In other words, as long as you have the ability to acquire enough ornaments, you can stack attributes indefinitely!

The premise is that you can actually get that many decorative items.

Previously, Su Qing had only heard that legendary captains were qualified to obtain such good things, but he did not know how they were produced.

It now appears that this type of ornament only drops in Hell difficulty, which explains its rarity.

Su Qing placed the small and exquisite windmill ornament on the windowsill.

A sea breeze blows, and the windmill blades turn slowly.

Thanks to the rarity of this ornament, Su Qing felt a genuine fondness for it.

He completely forgot that not long ago he was badly blasted by the Mill Master in the dungeon.

The last item was a rough piece of parchment.

[Architectural blueprints: Appraisal Institute lv.1.]

[Appraisal Lab Lv.1: Capable of appraising various items. The quality of appraised items can be improved by using the appraisal lab, the appraisal profession, and appraisal skills.]

Su Qing immediately thought of the treasure chest that appeared on Nightmare difficulty.

This is perfect, it's a good time to appraise that treasure chest.

However, at the same time, he also discovered something.

Nightmare difficulty yields unidentified treasure chests, while Hell difficulty provides buildings for identifying treasure chests.

He never thought he was some kind of chosen one, that such a coincidence could happen.

This can only prove one thing.

The Age of Exploration encouraged captains to make comprehensive plans.

It's like a game that's been meticulously designed by humans.

He had a feeling that the world of the Age of Exploration was far more complex than he had imagined.

But it's too early to think about these things now.

He lacked information, and he had only recently entered this world.

Su Qing believed that as long as he went far enough, he would eventually find the answer.

He really enjoyed this feeling, uncovering the truth behind it step by step.

He smiled knowingly, then picked up the blueprints and led Wang Yao to the first floor of the ship's cabin, intending to put down the research institute.

[Research institute placement failed!]

Reason for failure: Insufficient building materials!

Su Qing slapped his forehead, realizing that architectural blueprints were just blueprints; they required materials to build.

The Sugoroku House is an item given directly, not a blueprint.

Wang Yao crossed his arms and said, "What's wrong? Trying to fool around here?"

Su Qing shook her head. "I was too excited just now and forgot that we don't have any building materials on hand. We'll have to wait until we get to Midway Island."

Su Qing went to the captain's cabin alone and gripped the rudder with both hands.

[Do you want to leave the starting island and head to the next destination?]

"yes!"

Su Qing silently recited a phrase in her mind.

The wooden boat began to rock and move, its sails unfurling automatically as it sailed away from the starting island.

[Next stop: Midway Island.]

This is the second fixed island for each player.

The wooden boat cut through the sea and moved forward.
