Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

"Then I'll go play it myself?" Yu Man felt a little itchy and wanted to try his luck at opening an eighth-level game.

"Then I'll play too."

As a dedicated playmate, Yu Man immediately changed his tone: "But after thinking about it, it would be better if I could accompany you fishing."

"Hehe." The little deer did not hide his happiness.

The most abundant resource on this island is indeed the fishing spots.

Not only are there a lot of places for sea fishing, but there are also high-level freshwater areas and a mysterious blue hole abyss on the island.

They can produce very rare fish, and the dishes made from them not only have a special taste, but can also provide some rare bonuses.

Besides fish, if your Traveler rank is high enough, you might even fish out treasure. Or, you might trigger a large regional boss hidden on the seabed... In short, it's fascinating PVE content with a lot of possibilities.

"Unlike in Shimla Bakken, I'll be free to fish all afternoon, and nothing should bother me."

"Indeed, you have never been successful in fishing in Shimla Bakken..." Yu Man had an impression of this. Every time Xiaolu just put down the rod, all kinds of things would come out.

“…It’s not like it hasn’t happened before—”

The deer looked at Yu Man meaningfully, then quietly withdrew his gaze and prepared his fishing gear.

Then, she sat on the lid of her mount's box, holding the map she had drawn in her hand, and looked for the most suitable place.

"I'm a Level 5 Traveler now. Theoretically, I can catch rare Level 6 fish... but it's better to go to this Level 6 sea area first."

"Whatever you want, I'll just read a book next to you."

Yu Man plans to continue learning the Old World language - speaking of which, why isn't the Ice Prison Dragon at the top of the mountain?

Should they go out for a stroll? This little girl has already experienced going out to sea, and it's indeed time for them to go out for some fun when they are offline.

Now that we know that the "Youshi Chamber of Commerce" was retaliated by Yu Man, the island is currently very stable.

Everyone can live a leisurely life, and Yu Man will not force the Ice Prison Dragon to stay on the island all the time.

"Yes, it's nice here."

The deer found a reef a few meters away from the island, and the tide level was just right.

The clear sea is visible to the naked eye, with a large number of fish swimming around.

She sorted out the bait and line, and chatted with Xiangxiang in her spare time.

"Hello, can you hold seawater in your mouth? When we catch fish, I'll put it in your mouth first."

Xiang Xiang felt very aggrieved, but when she thought about how Yu Man had stuffed the body in without any explanation, she felt very sorry.

Xiaolu even asked first...which is actually more acceptable.

Although it was still in a gloomy mood: "Oh, go ahead, torment me. I was scared by a ghost again this morning, and now I have to eat sea water and fish..."

"What the hell scared you?"

Yu Man on the side was a little interested because Xiang Xiang had reported the haunted incident last time.

That was exactly when Yu Man summoned the reflection of the old world and officially chose his secondary profession.

But he hadn't summoned any yet. All the reflections of the Old World he had on hand...were stored securely within the knots. Another one, hidden within the werewolf's body, had already been sent to the main city island.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any ghosts on the island anymore.

……

PS

(How did you know I drew 10 big lucky bags and got two black monkeys at once...)

153 There’s a thief!

Boxbox is a reliable treasure chest monster that doesn't lie or brag.

At Yu Man's suggestion, Xiang Xiang told about the haunting he had seen.

"It's a terrifying creature!"

"……Then what?"

"I can't explain it clearly, because it was extremely aggressive, pale, and rushed towards me like crazy when it saw me... I've never heard of such a thing happening on the island..."

Xiangxiang was very scared.

"But I know... I'm sure of it! Employer, that ghost... still haunts this island! Not only me, but the workers have been harmed as well."

It sounded almost the same as not hearing it, but Yu Man couldn't expect Xiang Xiang to give a more detailed account.

I guess as soon as they met, Xiang Xiang ran away quickly...

Yu Man had a few theories. Could it be a regional leader? After all, the Ice Prison Dragon allowed other creatures to exist. With such a high concentration of magic power, there would always be some powerful creatures that dominated a corner of the ecosystem.

But I have to say, it sounds more like an elemental elf formed by elemental overflow.

If that's the case, then it's at least level seven... That's a good thing, because it can usually be used directly as high-level material.

"Never mind, I'll investigate." Yu Man was a little interested. "Where did they meet?"

"At the junction of the valley and the grassland...where there are many crystals."

Yu Man found the location by referring to the detailed map drawn by Xiaolu.

It is right opposite the Mage Tower, at the foot of the mountain.

It was a gathering area, a seventh-level plot of land, rich in crystals and minerals. It was estimated that there were also quite a few gems, making it quite abundant.

But unfortunately, one of them is an enchanter and the other is a traveler, and they don’t have the corresponding professions to collect and process.

Otherwise, you will immediately have a large amount of wealth at hand, and you can also take the materials to find the "Rust Remover" to create more powerful weapons.

"I'll send an eye over first."

Yu Man took out the rope and untied one of the knots.

Suddenly, a gloomy wind blew along the coast, even disturbing the fish, birds and insects.

A high-level reflection of the old world woke up at Yu Man's call.

"Promise Keeper—you need me?"

Its silhouette was extremely blurry, as faint as a cicada's wing, and only a human shape could be made out.

But it wears a small inverted triangular hat with an eye painted on it in the form of a tattoo.

This reflection of the old world is one of the three that Yu Man summoned out of reserve by consuming the island's magic power and high-level materials.

An extremely excellent scout, Yu Man called him - Eye.

"Eye, investigate this place for me. We can share our vision."

"Please extend your hand."

Following the gentle, slightly hoarse female alto voice, Yu Man reached out his hand.

He used his index finger to dip away a hint of darkness from his own shadow.

Then, using this paint, he drew an open eye on the back of Yu Man's hand.

This was the special ability of the Eye. As long as Yu Man paid the magic power, he could use this technique to share his vision. Not only that, Yu Man's vision-enhancing ear clips also affected the other party's vision.

"Go ahead and be careful."

"--Um."

The eyes melted silently into the sunlight, but had already reached their destination.

Yu Man drank a bottle of magic potion, closed his eyes, and prepared to start investigating.

She took it very seriously, as it was a valuable place producing seventh- and eighth-level enchanting materials. If anything disrupted the magic cycle, the losses would be disastrous.

After a while, my eyes were able to move freely through all the darkness and shadows, and I could already see where the valley was.

The traces of mineral veins grow from small to large, while the distribution of crystals grows arbitrarily.

Although he didn't see any ghosts, as he looked deeper into it, some high-priced materials attracted Yu Man's attention.

"As expected of the Ice Prison Dragon's island, it actually produces this kind of metal ore. This is feather-cracked silver enchanted with the eighth-level ice element... Alas, an entire vein of ore is right here, but no one can harvest it."

It is not suitable for making weapons, but it is ideal for making jewelry and armor.

But various seventh-order crystals grown in other places are very suitable for making weapons.

"...Hey, eye—wait a minute." Yu Man gave instructions to the reflection of the old world with a rope.

She saw something strange.

Some fragments shining with a faint blue light were hidden among the clutter on the ground.

"As expected, it's the pinnacle of eighth-tier metal, Blue Winch Steel... Are there traces of this ore here? But why are they fragments... That's a bit strange."

Each type of material has a set of names. For example, among metals, the most suitable one for making main-hand weapons is generally the most expensive top grade.

And this thing called Blue Winch Steel is the top-level material that can rival the ninth level.

As an enchanting material, the weapons made from it are naturally sharper than others, and the sharpness will not decay.

This eliminates the need for an enchanter or grinder to maintain the weapon, which is quite convenient.

"Eye, stay close... follow the debris."

He walked slowly according to Yu Man's request.

But the fragments no longer appeared, and even searching around them yielded no results.

"...Could it be that—" Yu Man thought of another possibility, "Eye, return to the location of the fragment and slowly observe the surroundings."

The scout was not at all impatient, but rather enjoyed it because the instructions were precise and effective.

This time - Yu Man's instructions worked again.

Those fragments are actually cross-sections of the mineral veins' roots embedded in the earth.

There should have been a large piece of blue capstan steel growing in this location, sharp as a blade... But now, it has been taken away roughly, leaving only the roots that cannot be pulled out buried in the soil.

"The traces are still fresh...it's hard to deal with." Yu Man suddenly became serious.

"What's wrong?" asked the deer.

"The ghost that Xiang Xiang encountered must be quite powerful. To be able to dig out top-tier eighth-level materials so easily, the other party's mining skills must be at least eighth-level. Such a person is definitely very powerful."

Yu Man continued to explore the surroundings with his eyes while preparing for battle. He had to go to the scene in person.

I'm afraid that when I was offline, the existence called ghost was wantonly exploiting the expensive resources belonging to the island.

As a lord, this kind of thing cannot be tolerated.

Yu Man hesitated over whether to use the medium to "die" on the equipment, but the materials were dwindling, and he felt a little sad. Fortunately, there was a better option now.

"A deer..."

"Okay, okay," the little deer said, smiling as he put away his gear. "I knew it. Every time I get comfortable fishing, something bad happens."

"Kill the ghost that scared our little box. There's a high probability that we can harvest a piece of eighth-level metal. I'll make you a sword to make up for it then."

When Xiaolu heard about this good news, he finished the task in just one second and jumped to Yu Man's side in an instant, with his two-handed sword drawn.

"Walk."

……

As the two of them rushed to the scene, Yan carefully investigated the entire area according to Yu Man's request.

There is unexpectedly more than one vein of Blue Capstan Steel, and the others are not passive.

But it can also be seen that the other party has also collected other metals, all of which are suitable for making weapons. He has excellent vision.

"He's a master, accurately identifying the properties of metal... Is this revenge from the 'Ghost World Chamber of Commerce'? They're here to steal resources."

The two walked into the valley and, guided by their eyes, experienced the atmosphere there firsthand.

As a swordsman and armor-wearer, Xiaolu was intoxicated by the sharp magical atmosphere and the minerals everywhere.

Yu Man walked directly to the stolen Blue Winch Steel ore vein and looked at the only bare roots left.
