Ch. 61 - Trading
Yang Yi had just returned to the deck when another earthquake struck.
The Nightmare Star was also rocked by the waves, swaying relentlessly.
Two minutes later, the island completely disappeared, submerged in the sea.
Along with it, the nest — or what could be called a temple, which was inscribed with the "Book of Spider Body" — vanished as well.
Yang Yi didn’t feel any regret.
He believed that such divine relics, beyond the comprehension of humans, should not exist in the mortal world! Only the dark, deep sea could be their rightful home!
Yang Yi manoeuvred the Nightmare Star, turned the ship around, and headed straight towards the Extreme Winter Sea.
He had stayed there too long, and the black fog behind him had never stopped.
Back in his room, Yang Yi planned to make the remaining sweaters.
There were 31 left, and he needed 93 energy points to finish them.
Yang Yi had the energy to weave sweaters but lacked the energy to rest or sleep.
He even drank another Appetiser Potion during this time.
By noon the following day, he finally finished.
He immediately contacted a few of his friends who had purchased items from him.
First, he sold a set to Yu Dawei for 2000 Shell Coins.
Yu Dawei was the captain of the Iron Will and had been very generous, even giving Yang Yi some giant Bobbit worm meat, making him someone worth building a close relationship with.
However, Yu Dawei didn’t buy just for himself.
He bought 4 more sets for 4000 Shell Coins, planning to distribute them among his subordinates.
Next was Xu Da, captain of the Swift Wind.
Although they hadn’t met in person, they were friends online, and Yang Yi offered him a friendly price of 3000 Shell Coins.
Xu Da quickly paid and provided high-value information about the Extreme Winter Sea.
At the time, most players hadn’t entered the Extreme Winter Sea yet, and most were still preparing in the surrounding areas.
However, Xu Da and a few others had explored the area.
According to him, the Extreme Winter Sea was full of large floating icebergs, and if encountered, it was best to avoid them, as what appeared above the water was only the tip!
Also, the temperature in the Extreme Winter Sea could reach minus ten degrees Celsius, making resupply very difficult, and fishing there was often a waste of time.
Lastly, after traveling a certain distance in the Extreme Winter Sea, they would encounter white mist, but since Xu Da had never entered it, he didn’t know what was inside. Perhaps the temperature would drop even more.
Yang Yi thanked Xu Da for the information and continued chatting with him.
His Swift Wind guild was different from most other fleets, as it was a loose alliance made up of young, fast ships and adventurous players.
They shared information, did internal trading, and occasionally met up.
Yang Yi then privately messaged several players who had left comments saying they wanted to buy sweaters, selling 3 more sets.
He then tried contacting other friends to speed up the selling process, so he wouldn’t have to use up his chat messages in the world channel.
It was also a good way to boost his presence.
Once the remaining sets were sold, Yang Yi planned to sell them all to Shen Guanquan!
He had a large appetite, so he would probably buy them all.
The first person Yang Yi contacted was Zhou Dai.
She was probably someone who didn’t lack money.
Plus, her holy water had helped Yang Yi several times, so he could offer her a friendly price.
But after waiting for more than ten minutes, Yang Yi still hadn’t received a reply from Zhou Dai, which likely meant she wasn’t interested.
So, Yang Yi tried contacting the experienced fisherman He Qi, asking if he wanted the fuzzy sweaters.
This time, he received a response almost immediately.
He Qi: "Sorry, I just caught a big fish."
