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

As seawater filled the space in his stomach, Zhou Wen listened to the sounds in the water and noticed that there seemed to be several creatures swimming around, which made him a little nervous.

But after listening carefully for a while, it was discovered that the noises were all made by mirror-skin barracudas. After the seawater receded, the light followed the sound and shone on three bands of light.

"Three fish, not bad luck today." Zhou Wen muttered with some surprise, but as before, he temporarily ignored the three mirror-skinned barracudas and found the supply box to open.

[Ding! You have obtained 1 diving suit blueprint.]

"A diving suit? No wonder three mirror-skin barracudas came at once; they were delivering the fish skins to make a diving suit for me," he joked.

Zhou Wen showed little interest in the diving suit blueprint because he couldn't dive, and he wasn't even a very good swimmer; he could only do the simplest dog paddle.

However, since we've already opened the shop, we should at least make one and try it on, just in case we need it someday.

Previously, many seemingly worthless drawings ended up being very useful.

Zhou Wen used the diving suit blueprints directly, and the blueprints turned into blue light and entered the system interface.

[Diving suit pattern: Requires 5 pieces of mirrored barracuda skin and 20 pieces of cloth.]

Zhou Wen opened the storage cabinet and found the mirror-skin barracuda skin he had stored before. There were four sets in total, plus the three that had just arrived, so the materials were enough.

After the three mirror-skinned barracudas had finished jumping, Zhou Wen used a large iron knife to quickly process the three fish, peeling off the skin intact and dividing the fish meat into nine portions to be listed on the trading channel.

All nine portions of mirror-skinned barracuda meat were used to trade for equipment slots. Zhou Wen had deeply realized the importance of equipment slots these past few days, but he didn't know if he could successfully trade them.

"Make." Zhou Wen clicked the make button to start making the diving suit.

All five pieces of mirrored barracuda skin turned into blue light and gradually transformed into a smooth, one-piece diving suit in front of Zhou Wen.

"Wow! If you wore this out, wouldn't it blind people?" Zhou Wen looked at the wetsuit in his hand, its surface as smooth as a mirror, and couldn't help but laugh.

The wetsuit is made of very soft material, and the inside feels very comfortable. It even comes with flippers. The problem is, the entire wetsuit only has one hole at the neck, making it impossible to wear.

"Do I have to wear it from the equipment slot? But there's only one slot. Can it fit a whole wetsuit?" Zhou Wen wondered, preparing to give it a try.

First, I took out the spiked breastplate that I had been keeping in my equipment slot, and then I tried to put the diving suit into it. After a flash of blue light, the diving suit actually went into the equipment slot that only had one slot.

"Can a single compartment really store an entire set of equipment?" Upon seeing this result, Zhou Wen immediately thought of a complete set of fishbone armor.

However, these are all speculations for now, and Zhou Wen doesn't know when he will be able to create the fishbone armor.

So, with a thought, he put on the one-piece wetsuit, instantly wrapping his entire body tightly, with every part of his body perfectly attached to the wetsuit.

Zhou Wen tried moving around a bit. The wetsuit was very flexible and did not affect his body's flexibility. Moreover, the surface was shimmering with silver light, and it felt like it could be reflected in the mirror and blend into the surrounding environment.

"Not bad, but it's a bit hot to wear. I'll put it away for now." With a thought, Zhou Wen put the wetsuit into his equipment inventory and then into his locker. There was no need to use the wetsuit at the moment.

After that, Zhou Wen had nothing to do. After all the wooden foundations listed on the world trading channel were traded for timber, Zhou Wen transferred another 50,000 units to Chen Xin.

With 15 units remaining, 10 will be used to make wooden foundations and put them on the market, but the price has been changed to 30 units of basic materials according to the survivors' requirements.

Of the final 50,000 units of timber, he kept 2,000 for himself and put 48,000 on the trading channel to buy gold ore at a price of 100 units of timber, intending to buy it long-term.

Zhou Wen didn't want to keep more wood, but he only had two storage cabinets, and they were both full of things. There was really no place to store more wood, so he could only exchange it all for rare materials through the trading channel.

After finishing all this, Zhou Wen had nothing to do, so he decided to observe the growth of the rock crystal leaf tree to see if there were any problems with his planting method.

Just as this thought crossed his mind, a private message arrived. Zhou Wen saw that it was from Zuo Junyang, the guild leader of "Leviathan".

This time, he approached Zhou Wen not to invite him to continue as vice president, but to trade items.

[Hey bro, I want to trade three algae-generating tanks for three blueprints.]

After reading the message, Zhou Wen was stunned. After so many days, someone had finally contacted him to trade algae oxygenation tanks using blueprints.

"Sure, let me see the blueprints."

Zuo Junyang seemed to have been prepared. As soon as Zhou Wen sent the message, he sent over the information for the three drawings.

[Wooden Fence Blueprints], [Wooden Barrel Blueprints], [Wooden Cup Blueprints].

"Damn it, I knew it. They wouldn't put such good blueprints up for sale." Zhou Wen cursed under his breath, but he wasn't angry. This was the normal outcome.

At first, when they first arrived in this world, many people didn't think blueprints were valuable; they thought they were less valuable than a loaf of bread. But now everyone has witnessed the power of blueprints, especially valuable ones. A valuable blueprint can instantly grant someone a large amount of basic resources, allowing them to develop beyond everyone else's level. Who would easily part with a valuable blueprint now?

Without wasting any words, Zhou Wen told the other party that once he received the supply box for the third time and had seawater, he would make three units for him.

Thank you so much, sir.

[Just a normal transaction, no need to thank me.]

"Hehe, thank you anyway. Please keep these three drawings."

【How can that be? Aren't you afraid I'll renege on my promise later?】

We trust your credibility.

After sending the message, Zuo Junyang immediately sent over all three drawings. Zhou Wen accepted them without hesitation, as Zuo Junyang's attitude clearly indicated that he had other matters to attend to.

Actually, I'd also like to trade some items with the big shot.

What item?

Wooden foundation.

I just checked the world chat channel and it seems you're stopping the sale of wooden foundations, so I'd like to trade some with you.

Of course, the price won't be for 30 basic materials.

No, I'm not planning to sell the wooden foundation for the time being.

I'm willing to trade the blueprints.

"Blueprints too... alright, seeing how sincere you are, I'll trade you some. One blueprint and one wooden foundation. How many do you want to trade?"

"Huh? One drawing per sheet... this price is a bit high."

So how do you want to trade?

I'd like to trade one blueprint for ten wooden foundations.

[I'll send you the three algae aeration tanks later. I have other things to do, so I'll have to talk to you later.]

[Eight wooden foundations traded for a single blueprint?]

Seeing that Zhou Wen immediately refused and wanted to end the conversation, Zuo Junyang quickly reduced the transaction amount.

My third supply crate is arriving soon, but let me deliver the three algae aeration tanks to you first.

"Hey bro, what price are you looking for? We can discuss it."

[One blueprint for five wooden foundations, no bargaining.]

Well... whatever, I hope we can have a long-term collaboration in the future.

"No problem, no problem."

Afterwards, Zuo Junyang sent four useless blueprints, and Zhou Wen made 20 wooden foundations for him at a 1:5 ratio and sent them over.

"With Zuo Junyang as a premise, I have a reason to provide Jiang Haitao and Chen Xin with wooden foundations."
