"This is our chance.
As long as we can cling to Shura's coattails, why worry about survival at sea?"
At this moment, Zhang San and Li Si both looked at Wang Er with admiration.
Then, the three of them began eating fish.
Although Luo Feng's Time Accelerator was still insufficient, he chose to start building the Epic Ship.
Luo Feng opened the construction interface and said, "Construct the Epic Ship for me."
"Ding, construction of the Epic Ship has begun. Construction time: 7 days."
Once the Epic Ship began construction,
Luo Feng went to the edge of the island to continue his woodcutting work.
At this time, the Merfolk Queen was resting, and Luo Feng couldn't stray too far, so he had no choice but to chop trees.
An idea flashed through Luo Feng's mind—should he call the Great Black Gorilla over to chop trees for him?
"Obtained Large Tree: +1"
Hundredfold Reward:
"Obtained Large Tree: +100"
By now, Luo Feng's lumber reserves likely surpassed the combined total of most people in Sea Zone 9527.
Just as Luo Feng stored the felled tree, he noticed something else on the ground and was instantly stunned.
Luo Feng actually spotted a bright red Bronze Treasure Chest on the ground.
The chest must have fallen from the tree.
Treasure chests growing on trees?
How bizarre.
Who would have the time to climb trees every day?
This made Luo Feng realize he needed to pay more attention to such details in the future.
The locations where these treasure chests appeared were truly unpredictable.
Without hesitation, Luo Feng approached the crimson treasure chest and opened it with his right hand.
Opening the bright red Bronze Treasure Chest:
"Obtained Good Grade Giant Chili Seed: +1"
"Obtained Good Grade Soil: +1 ton"
Ten Thousand-Fold Reward:
"Obtained Excellent Grade Giant Chili Seed: +100"
"Obtained Perfect Grade Soil: +10 tons"
Seeing the items from this chest, Luo Feng was momentarily stunned—this was the first time he had obtained plant seeds.
He wondered what these seeds would be like in the oceanic world.
Curious, Luo Feng checked the attributes of the Excellent Grade Giant Chili Seed.
[Giant Chili Seed]
Grade: Excellent
Description: This seed produces enormous chili peppers, each at least one meter long, with the largest reaching two meters. The resulting chilies vary in spiciness, ensuring there's a flavor to suit every palate.
After reading the description, an idea struck Luo Feng—this would be perfect for making Chopped Chili Fish Head!
Now he had the chilies—all he needed was the fish head.
Next, Luo Feng examined the attributes of the ten tons of Perfect Grade Soil.
[Soil]
Grade: Perfect
Description: This soil is rich in nutrients, allowing planted crops to grow rapidly, ensuring a quick harvest of delicious food.
When Luo Feng saw this soil, he wasn't particularly excited because he already possessed the Mysterious Seed Water that could accelerate the growth of plants and animals. For him, this soil was merely the icing on the cake.
However, using both together would undoubtedly yield better results.
With this thought, Luo Feng didn't hesitate any longer and directly placed the hundred Excellent-grade Giant Chili Seeds into the Perfect-grade soil.
Next, he spent some time watering all the Giant Chili Seeds with Seed Water.
After that, Luo Feng left the seeds alone.
At this stage, he didn't have an immediate need for these Giant Chili plants.
Luo Feng then glanced at the sky and noticed it was already late.
He decided not to continue chopping wood.
After resting for a while, it would be time for dinner.
Then, all he needed to do was wake up the next day, set sail on the giant ship, and go find Tang Xueying.
With this in mind, Luo Feng approached the Epic Multifunctional Bed.
The Merfolk Queen was lying there, deep in slumber.
As Luo Feng drew near, she slowly opened her eyes and spoke, "Master, I see you've been busy all this time. You should rest too. Come and sleep with me."
Hearing Ariel say this, Luo Feng smiled faintly and replied, "No rush. We can sleep after dinner. You can get up now—we'll be eating soon."
The Merfolk Queen had mostly recovered by now. She had previously been drained of energy but hadn't suffered any serious injuries, so after some rest, she could move normally again.
Upon hearing Luo Feng's words, she sat up on the bed.
Suddenly, Ariel thought of something. With a hint of shyness, she said, "Master, may I ask you a question?"
Luo Feng didn't hesitate. "Of course, go ahead."
Ariel lowered her gaze slightly, her cheeks tinged with pink, and asked, "Master… did you change my two shells for me?"
Hearing this and seeing her reaction, Luo Feng immediately understood what she meant.
For a moment, he didn't know how to respond.
If he admitted to changing them, wouldn't that mean he had seen her completely exposed?
What if the Merfolk Queen got angry at him for this?
After all, he had replaced her shells with the Size-Adjusting Bra without her knowledge.
But in that situation, he couldn't just leave her uncovered—her twin peaks couldn't remain exposed to the open air.
After a brief internal struggle, Luo Feng finally spoke. "Well… yes, it was me. When I found you, your original shells had already fallen off. I tried to put them back on, but no matter what I did, they wouldn't stay. So I had no choice but to use an item I had obtained before to replace them. If you don't like it, you can change them. I didn't mean to look at… that part of you. I apologize—please don't be angry."
Hearing this, Ariel's face turned even redder.
So this meant Luo Feng had indeed seen her bare chest.
This was the first time she had ever experienced something like this.
As the Merfolk Queen, she rarely interacted with the opposite sex, and even when she did, everyone treated her with utmost respect.
She had never even held hands with a man, let alone been seen by one.
But now, Luo Feng had seen everything.
The mere thought of it made her face flush crimson, her heart pounding uncontrollably.
