Giant Fish Survival: I Can Hear the Giant Fish's Heart

Zhou Wen looked at the message from this person without showing any anger on his face; in fact, he even had a smile on his face.

Because after this person posted two messages in the world chat channel, they immediately used 200 basic materials to trade four pieces of spiky krill meat in the trading channel.

"Wow, that's really sneaky."

This person was clearly afraid of too many people trading, so they deliberately raised questions in the world chat channel to buy themselves time to trade more krill meat.

He even traded four at once, and might even be acting as a middleman.

"I don't know where this guy got 200 sets of basic materials."

Currently, everyone else only has five boxes. Apart from the initial supply box given by the world system on the first day, which contains food, even if the remaining four supply boxes are all filled with basic materials, there will only be 120 boxes in total.

"Could it be that this guy also thought of a way to speed up the digestion of the Leviathan illusion?"

But Zhou Wen immediately denied his idea. If the other party had really thought of this method, he should have encountered the spiky krill long ago and would not have needed to trade basic materials.

After a quick thought, there's only one possibility: I pooled 200 materials with someone I knew to get four spiky krill meats. We each ate one, and then resold the remaining two to get more supplies.

Just then, a private message arrived; it was from the same guy who had raised the question in the world chat.

Sorry, my comment didn't affect your trading, did it?

The impact will be minimal.

Zhou Wen glanced at the transaction information. At this moment, all ten pieces of spiky krill meat used to exchange for basic materials had been traded.

That's good. I'd like to ask you a question.

【Just ask. 】

Zhou Wen didn't take the other party's previous remarks to heart. Although they did have some impact, the fact that the other party traded four pieces of spiky krill meat in one go would also encourage those who were watching to follow suit and try it.

After all, basic materials are currently useless; without blueprints, they are just a pile of garbage.

Using 50 useless basic materials to trade for a 20-30 cm long spiky krill, which contains 3-4 pounds of meat, it's not a loss even if you can't add strength points.

I'd like to know, is it true that you only gain strength points the first time you eat this spiky krill meat?

Yes, we won't add a second one.

Zhou Wen told the truth that the other party had obviously guessed it and sent a private message to ask, just to confirm.

He didn't mention this message in the world chat channel because he wanted those who were lucky, such as those who had multiple blueprints, to think that the more spiked krill they ate, the more strength points they would gain.

In this way, he can exchange for more blueprints. If he had told them in advance, these people would definitely not have been willing to exchange blueprints for them anymore.

Thank you so much! My name is Cheng Yongming. May I ask your honorable name?

"No need for such formalities, my name is Zhou Wen."

[Thank you for your generosity, Brother Zhou Wen. If I ever obtain any blueprints in the future, I will definitely trade with Brother Zhou Wen first.]

After finishing his conversation with Cheng Yongming, Zhou Wen glanced at the transaction information. Of the 50 pieces of spiky krill meat he had listed, 43 had already been sold.

Zhou Wen glanced at the world chat channel, where many people had confirmed that the meat of the spiky krill did indeed add a little strength, which was why the transactions were so quick.

The remaining 7 are for trading blueprints. Obviously, blueprints are very rare, and most people who get blueprints will use them themselves. Only a minority keep them for trading.

After waiting for three hours, even after the Leviathan had swallowed the second treasure chest, no one was trading the blueprint.

"If no one exchanges the third supply box today, we'll use it to trade for basic supplies," Zhou Wen said somewhat helplessly, casually opening the second supply box.

[Ding! You have obtained 3 bottles of mineral water.]

"Three bottles of mineral water... not bad, although I'm not short of water anymore." Zhou Wen glanced at the large amount of supplies he had traded and said with a smile.

In the following time, Zhou Wen began to examine the supplies brought back from the transaction.

Only three blueprints were traded: [Wooden Foundation Blueprint], [Iron Dagger Blueprint], and [Spiked Leg Armor Blueprint].

"Spike leg armor blueprints? Looks like it's a set. I wonder if I can collect a complete set." Zhou Wen paused for a moment, then said with a smile.

Zhou Wen used all three blueprints directly, and then began to check the materials required for their production.

[Wooden Foundation Blueprint: Requires 20 Wood.]

[Iron Dagger Blueprint: Requires 1 Iron Ingot and 1 Wood.]

"Damn, iron ingots? Where are we going to find these?" Zhou Wen knew that this iron dagger couldn't be made anytime soon.

[Spike Leg Armor Blueprint: Requires 8 Spiked Krill Shells and 10 Cloth Pieces.]

"I need eight shrimp shells, but I only have five right now. I should be able to make them by tomorrow," Zhou Wen calculated in his mind.

He obtained 8 shrimp shells today, but used 3 to make a spiked helmet for Jiang Haitao, leaving him with only 5.

Now that we've looked at the blueprints, it's time to exchange food.

With ten cans of food, ten loaves of bread, and ten bottles of mineral water, Zhou Wen wouldn't have to worry about food for a while.

All ten cans were fruit cans in tin packaging, including canned yellow peaches, canned coconut meat, canned oranges, and so on. Although there were no canned meats, Zhou Wen happily and carefully put the cans away, as they were all good things.

Zhou Wen glanced at the medical supplies and was surprised to find that nine of them were medical hemostatic bandages, and the rest was a box of anti-inflammatory drugs.

Although they were almost all bandages, they were all life-saving items. Zhou Wen carefully put them away and placed them in a high place where they would not get wet.

The traded metal ores totaled 100 units: 50 units of iron ore and 50 units of copper ore.

Finally, there are the basic ingredients, a total of 500 portions. Zhou Wen didn't categorize them yet, planning to wait until evening to replace the remaining spiky krill with the basic ingredients before categorizing them together.

With the remaining time, Zhou Wen planned to build a wooden foundation to see what it would look like. He had plenty of basic materials now, so he could splurge a little.

Open the blueprints and click Build.

The moment the wooden foundation was completed, a surprised smile appeared on Zhou Wen's face.

Zhou Wen thought the wooden foundation was laid directly on the ground, but he didn't expect it to be supported by four one-meter-long wooden stakes, one meter above the ground. This height was just right so that it wouldn't be submerged by seawater.

"I don't have to soak in water every day anymore."

Zhou Wen shouted with joy. These past few days, he had been washed several times a day, and his body was always wet and sticky. The feeling was indescribable.

Now that's great, with the wooden foundation, he can stay on the wooden foundation while the Leviathan is eating and swallowing supply boxes, and go down to do his work after the tide recedes.

While happy, Zhou Wen was also worried about whether the wooden foundation was sturdy enough and whether it would be washed away by the sea. So Zhou Wen pushed the wooden foundation with all his might and found that the four wooden stakes of the foundation seemed to be fused with the stomach wall space and could not be moved at all.

"I don't know the principle behind it, but whatever, it's done."

Zhou Wen built six wooden foundations, each one square meter in size, to create a 2x3 platform.

He moved all the supply boxes to the platform, so he no longer had to worry about them being washed away by the water.
