"Swish~" West followed other sailors and took a mop to clean the salt stains on the deck.
After finally cleaning it up, he used an iron oil can the size of his head to lubricate the anchor machine cable.
As a sailor, this is his job and the reason why the captain recruited him to the ship.
Although the sailor is at the lowest level of the entire ship, he is like a screw on a machine. Although small, he is absolutely indispensable.
He is currently very satisfied with this job, especially the generous remuneration. Of course, it would be best if he didn't have to explore extremely dangerous places.
"Splash~" A wet figure suddenly flipped over the edge of the boat, scaring West and others so much that they shook violently.
When he saw the figure's green hair like seaweed, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Second mate, you scared me. I thought it was something from the sea."
Feuerbach shook his head to dry the sea water on his face, then squatted on the edge of the boat.
He took out a green-backed sea turtle that was infested with barnacles, and began to pry it open with a dagger, making "crackling" sounds.
"It's okay. My little cuties are patrolling the surroundings. If anything comes close, they will easily stop it."
West leaned over and asked curiously while watching Feuerbach prying the barnacles, "By the way, Mr. Second Officer, I was a little curious before. The Narwhal is so fast, how can your sharks keep up? What if they want to sleep halfway?"
"Hey, young man, you don't understand this, right? Sharks have to keep swimming all the time, even when they are sleeping, otherwise they will suffocate. So, have you learned a lot of useful knowledge from me? I know a lot about sharks."
West rubbed the back of his head, smiled awkwardly and nodded continuously, and suddenly his eyes rolled, as if he had thought of something. "Second mate, do you know why shark meat smells like urine?"
"This is simple. Sharks don't have urethras. Their urine seeps out of their skin, so their meat smells like urine. I guess no one would eat shark meat for no reason. It tastes like..."
"It's like fat pork soaked in human urine." West said first.
Feuerbach looked at him in surprise, "How do you know so much? Have you eaten it?"
"No! Why would I eat something that even beggars wouldn't eat? I was just guessing."
"Your guess is correct. I heard that people in the East China Sea have a special method to remove the urine smell from shark meat. I don't know what method they use."
"Really? If there really is a way, the shark meat in the fish market won't be thrown into the garbage dump and left to rot." West stood there holding the oil bottle, as if recalling something.
"Hey! Hurry up and work! Can't you see the first mate and the captain are in the cockpit? Do you want your salary to be deducted?" Another sailor who was changing the bridle rope lowered his voice and reminded quickly.
When West looked up, he saw Charles with his arms folded across his chest and Bandage steering the boat behind a row of transparent glass windows.
He rushed back to continue refueling the anchor winch.
"How are you? Has the curse of God been completely lifted?" Charles looked at West who was working hurriedly on the deck and asked the first mate beside him.
"Yeah... it's safe..." The Bandage still had the same tone after changing into a new set of bandages.
"That's good. Actually, you don't have to rush back like this. You almost lost your life last time. I can give you some time to relax."
"Captain... I feel... this power... is very unusual..." As he finished speaking, vines and branches with green leaves continued to grow from the gaps in the bandages and climbed onto the dashboard in front.
"Not only can I control plants... but with my practice, I can also change them... ...any plant I touch... I can imitate..."
As he spoke, the branch in front of Charles suddenly swelled, and a black flower with sharp thorns bloomed, then withered in the blink of an eye. Soon, a black vine fruit with a shiny black skin appeared in front of Charles.
Looking at the black vine fruit in his hand, Charles couldn't help but perk up. This was simply a creation out of thin air.
"How much does it cost to create this fruit?" Charles asked the most crucial question.
"More than... eating it..."
Seeing the first mate in front of him who looked like a tree man, Charles suddenly thought of something. Since he could use it this way, then my thunder ability could also...
Thinking of this, Charles raised his left hand and his smartphone appeared in his hand.
He gently placed his finger on the charging port, and a blue arc of electricity flickered gently.
After a while, sweat appeared on Charles' forehead. To be honest, this kind of delicate operation is much more difficult than releasing everything at once.
Suddenly, Charles saw the charging status displayed in the upper right corner of the phone screen, and his face immediately lit up with joy. But before he could be happy for long, he felt the back of the phone start to get hot, and it was getting hotter and hotter, so he quickly stopped.
This cell phone is the only thing he brought with him. It would be a shame if it broke.
"Captain... what are you... doing?"
"Wait... wait, I remember what it said in the school textbook?" Charles excitedly held his phone and walked towards his captain's room without looking back.
In the following period of time, Charles seemed to be obsessed with his mobile phone, studying it day and night and measuring the voltage.
Of course, he no longer easily uses his mobile phone for experiments.
After burning the two tablets left by the doctor, Charles was finally able to output low-frequency electricity stably.
In the captain's room, Charles held his mobile phone with a serious expression, and it looked as if the phone in his hand was made of tofu.
Red Lily, holding a piece of dried apple, squatted beside and watched with a curious look on her face.
She didn't know what Charles was doing, but she thought Mr. Charles' expression was very funny.
"Success!!" The screen of the mobile phone illuminated Charles' excited face. He was not only happy that he would not have to charge his mobile phone in the future.
What made him even happier was that this meant that his abilities could be used in more special places. All energy in the world is interconnected, such as magnetism and magnetism generating electricity.
Somehow, maybe this electricity could be converted into something else.
And this is just one ability. No one knows how many relics there are in the entire Earth Sea. If they are all released, the entire Earth Sea will undergo earth-shaking changes.
Charles felt that he had inadvertently opened a Pandora's box.
"No wonder the Foundation said before that this thing can improve the overall level of human civilization and technology. If it is really as I imagined, maybe it can really work."
Just as Charles was rejoicing over his success, there was a knock on the door, and Feuerbach came in with an excited look on his face. "Captain, we have arrived at our destination."
