On the 59th day of the maritime calendar, the temperature in this area dropped to -12°C this morning. The previously howling winds have weakened considerably, but the light snowfall is becoming increasingly dense, showing signs of a heavy snowfall.
Early this morning, Gu Xi received a second batch of fusion materials from Xu Lulu. Combined with the previous fusion materials, she had enough to modify a 100-square-meter ship base.
After completing the basic schedule, she took a hammer and began repairs, replacing the damaged deck with new materials.
The Future has changed its base material twice so far. The first time, it used wood, with a base defense of 1. Then it was changed to iron blocks, increasing the base defense of each block to 2. Now, with a base made of fused materials, the base defense has increased tenfold, with a single block reaching a defense of 20.
After busying herself with the replacement of the fusion materials, Gu Xi opened the ship information and checked the data of the Future.
Future
Area: 600
Wave resistance: 600
Defense: 2800
Overall defense: 5320
Condition: 100% (50000/50000)
Seeing the new data, Gu Xi thought to himself with delight, "I didn't expect that just replacing one-sixth of the base would result in such a significant increase in basic and overall defense!"
Sure enough, her efforts were worthwhile; the defensive capabilities alone made the wait worthwhile.
Although the Future only replaced one-sixth of its base, a seemingly insignificant change, it significantly improved the overall construction quality.
Although Gu Xi's ship still ranked first with a construction progress of 5639 after the Eternal Night ended, the gap with the others was constantly narrowing. Now, after replacing 100 base blocks, her construction progress has jumped to 6483.
After the base was replaced, Gu Xi started searching for the next batch of raw materials on the trading platform. After buying pearls and aquamarine ore at reasonable prices, she switched to the chat channel in area 2333, intending to post a few buy orders.
However, as soon as she entered, she found everyone discussing her rapidly increasing construction progress.
For people in area 2333, they wouldn't pay much attention to this data if it had accumulated over time. But this data rose in less than an hour, and the ship involved was Gu Xi. This change is enough to become a hot topic right now.
Seeing everyone's comments, Gu Xi felt it would be better for her to remain silent for the time being.
District 2333, Regional Chat Group (99247/100000):
"6483, 6483, I'm going to flip the table! How on earth was this ship repaired?!"
"I'm so upset! Someone suggested using better materials to repair the ship, and I listened to their advice. I even used shark bones to repair it, but why is the construction progress still not going up? By the way, my ship is already 400 square meters."
"Brother upstairs, don't cry. I used Xuan Iron. Although the area is only 300, even with the house, the construction level is only 2000."
"So, those big shots with high levels of construction, what do you use to build ships?"
"In addition to basic materials, you should also fill up the materials for the new defense systems that come out later. The better the materials, the higher the construction progress will be."
"So Sister Xi's ship must have high-level defensive items, right?"
"With such a high level of construction, it must be excellent in every aspect. But don't people think that with so many ships, it feels very empty if only one person lives there?"
"Finally someone has addressed this issue. I don't want to continue repairing it, but without repairs, the ship's resistance to wind and waves is too poor, making it impossible to enter the deep sea. Sigh, I'm in a bit of a dilemma."
