After seeing the ship made by the freckled girl, Su Rui felt as if a fire had been ignited in his heart. He could not wait to return to the inn and start his own shipbuilding journey immediately.
He sat on the bed, closed his eyes, quietly adjusted his breathing, and focused his attention on the Dragon Diagram and Bagua in the Niwan Palace.
In his Niwan Palace, the Dragon Diagram and Eight Diagrams radiated a dazzling light, and golden rune pillars were erected, forming a complex deduction formation. These rune pillars were engraved with ancient symbols and patterns, exuding a mysterious aura.
His consciousness fell on Shen's deduction formation, which transformed into the appearance before he crossed over. However, because he was thinking about deducing and refining the first form of the sea eel boat, he did not notice this detail.
"Xiaotu, first follow the instructions in the 'Nine Transformations and Nine Transformations of the Sea Loach Secret Method' to gather a complete set of materials, including the sea loach bones!"
Although it was Su Rui's first time using the deduction array, he seemed incredibly adept at it. While the term "deduction array" might sound novel, it's easy to understand if you think of it as an artificial intelligence. The small image's character at this point was like Jarvis from the pre-time-travel American Iron Man film. Su Rui could use it to assist whenever needed; all he had to do was give the instructions, and it would select the optimal solution.
Soon, various shipbuilding materials piled up in front of Su Rui, and a detailed shipbuilding blueprint was displayed before him. He took a deep breath, a glint of determination flashing in his eyes, and began to refine the first form of the sea loach ship according to the shipbuilding blueprint in the deduction formation.
In order to simulate the real refining scene and increase the proficiency in refining sea loach boats, Xiaotu prepared materials strictly according to the parameters recorded in the "Nine Transformations and Nine Changes of Sea Loach Secret Method", and even simulated the process of refining materials into hulls, parts and other equipment.
However, this was no easy task. When using simulated materials to refine the sea loach boat, problems with the heat or poor technical control often resulted in the material being turned into waste or substandard parts. Every failure made Su Rui secretly feel fortunate. While a failure in the simulation process cost some time, it allowed him to save a piece of material. More importantly, it gave him another piece of experience, which meant he was one step closer to success.
Initially, Su Rui was confident he could memorize every experience and setback from the refining process. He trusted his memory, believing that if he could imprint every detail deeply in his mind, he would be able to avoid the same mistakes the next time. However, as time went on, he gradually realized this approach wasn't working. The sheer volume of details involved in each refining process was simply too much for him to remember. Furthermore, sometimes, he was so absorbed in the task that he overlooked crucial details, leading to failure.
So, he began to have the small image simulate a pen and a notebook, intending to record every experience and failure. This way, he could always refer to his notes, review the previous refining process, identify problems, and improve them. It was a long process, and Su Rui was so immersed in the refining process that he forgot the passage of time. He tried again and again, constantly adjusting the ratio of materials, the temperature of the fire, the refining time, and so on, until he finally refined the components for the sea loach boat's skeleton.
At this moment, Lei Lin's voice suddenly rang in his ears: "Master, wake up quickly, someone is knocking on the door!"
Su Rui finally came back to his senses from the world of weapon refining. He mobilized his consciousness to return to his divine position, opened his eyes and glanced out the window, only to find that the sun was shining brightly outside. And the person knocking on the door was Shi Yi.
Su Rui touched his rumbling stomach and realized that he had been immersed in the deduction of the formation for a day and two nights. He shook his head and wondered how he could be so absorbed that he even forgot about time.
He stood up and opened the door, and saw Shi Yi standing at the door, looking ready, obviously ready to go out to sea. Shi Yi saw Su Rui coming out, and a smile appeared on his face. He said, "Erlang, you are finally awake. I have prepared everything here. After breakfast, we can go out to sea."
"Okay, I'll pack up and be right back." Su Rui turned and went back to the house to pack his things.
Shi Yi walked into the inn and ordered two breakfasts. A moment later, Su Rui came out. The two of them had breakfast together, then went to the market in Qiongzhou City to buy some food and supplies before heading out of the city.
When they reached the outskirts of the city, Shi Yi summoned his Spirit Fish Shuttle once again. As soon as the Spirit Fish Shuttle appeared, it immediately attracted Su Rui's full attention.
This was the second time he looked at the shuttle carefully. Only then did he realize that the shuttle was truly exquisitely made. The overall lines were smooth, and the parts of the shuttle body were tightly spliced together without a single flaw. In addition, many formations were engraved on it, which made this bulky shuttle more agile.
Su Rui examined the shuttle carefully, his mind growing more and more captivated. Every detail was meticulously crafted, imbued with the spirit of a large spiritual fish, imbuing it with a lifelike quality. Su Rui could even sense the fish's presence, the joy of its carefree flight through the air.
Many details were invisible before he obtained the "Nine Transformations and Nine Transformations of the Sea Eel Secret Technique." Now, however, they were truly astonishing. Perhaps this is the saying, "Outsiders see the excitement, while experts see the essence." Su Rui was filled with emotion. He knew the craftsman of this shuttle must be a master. Only such a person could create such a magical instrument.
