Gu Xi never expected that the nautical chart's display would be related to the number of fragments she had collected.
So, if she collects enough fragments, will the nautical chart be complete?
Gu Xi's gaze unconsciously drifted towards the dark sea.
Currently, apart from the area around the ship where visibility is possible, everything else is pitch black. Trying to find fragments in such an environment is like searching for a needle in a haystack.
She looked away and returned her gaze to the nautical chart in her hand.
Although it's only 75% complete, you can still glean a lot from it.
This map was different from the nautical chart she had obtained before, which was mainly used for navigation. This map, however, was filled with some crooked patterns and symbols, one of which even resembled the pattern of the strange gold coin.
Realizing this, Gu Xi quickly took out a strange gold coin and compared them in detail.
"Just as I expected!" Gu Xi exclaimed softly. Their similarity was 80%.
Dilapidated stone houses, piles of skeletons, strange gold coins, brightly lit deep-sea giant turtles, a noisy "night market," plus this thing that looks like a map of tribal power distribution—she wouldn't believe that civilization didn't exist in this world.
After the initial shock, Gu Xi quickly put away the nautical chart and took out another pile of tattered pages.
[Game Hint: When the collection rate of Deep Sea Clan Encyclopedia Fragments reaches 80%, you can choose to synthesize them. Choose whether to synthesize.]
"yes!"
Gu Xi looked solemn and chose to synthesize without hesitation.
Soon, the Deep Sea Clan Compendium was synthesized into a book in a similar way, with the cover engraved with Deep Sea Clan totems in the shape of gold coins, emitting a faint blue light.
The moment the book fell, Gu Xi quickly caught it with one hand.
She opened the encyclopedia, which depicted the appearance of the deep-sea creatures, their race names, and some basic information.
Whether it was due to the game system's restructuring or not, she read these words without any hindrance.
Gu Xi quickly browsed through the exhibits, and all sorts of strange creatures appeared before her eyes. Soon she found the species she wanted to know about—the giant sea turtle.
Deep-sea giant turtle
Race: Giant Turtle Clan
Mental strength: SS~SSS
The super-large creatures of the deep-sea race are few in number, gentle in nature, and possess extremely high spiritual power, making them one of the giants of the ocean.
Upon seeing this, a question arose in Gu Xi's mind. Since the deep-sea giant turtle was gentle, the races making those noises must not be it. So what races were they?
With these questions in mind, she flipped through the picture book again. Soon, she found a clue.
Deep Sea Fishman
Race: Fishman
Mental Strength: A~S
Deep-sea fish-men are ferocious and adept at using song to lure and attack their opponents. They enjoy creating bizarre specimens of other creatures and collecting fossils.
The singing, the strange specimens, and the fossils—all three clues matched up. Gu Xi was 80% certain that the creature living on the giant deep-sea turtle was a deep-sea fish-man.
Just thinking that A to S-level mental power has such a great impact on her, if she were to encounter an SSS-level monster, she would probably die on the spot.
Thinking of this, Gu Xi still felt lingering fear. Fortunately, the game system had a special mode. However, relying solely on the system's protection wasn't a long-term solution; improving his own strength as quickly as possible was the best course of action.
A sense of urgency to become stronger arose spontaneously. After quickly packing her things, she hurriedly began training her mental strength.
Gu Xi wasn't the only one to encounter a similar situation. In area 2333, some explorers who ventured 1000 meters into the sea were also able to glimpse a corner of its true nature in a special mode of the game.
