"It's not as simple as you think," An Xiu shook his head slightly and said with some worry: "Our ship was seriously damaged, and there were several holes in the bottom of the ship. The two-day journey I mentioned is based on the past sailing speed. But even if the boat is repaired now, it may be difficult to reach its original speed."
Qian Hai smiled confidently, "If there is any difficulty in repairing the ship, no matter how serious it is, I can solve it in a few clicks. It's no big deal!"
An Xiu pushed up his glasses, looked at Qian Hai and asked, "But can you repair the various magic arrays and inscriptions engraved on the hull? Do you know the original appearance of those magic arrays and inscriptions?"
"Um..." Qian Hai smiled awkwardly: "I don't seem to know, isn't it you? You should know something, right?"
"This is a speedboat carefully built by the mages and craftsmen of Yaoluo Island for their god. Do you think they will give me the design drawings?" An Xiu took out a stack of drawings and put them on the table. Heaven has studied the Clippers inside and out, and according to the drawings I drew, it should be possible to restore the ship to about 70 to 80% of its original state."
Qian Hai stood up and took the blueprint, "Okay, let's start working now and reach the inland sea as soon as possible!"
Most of the ships hunting sea beasts at sea have been evacuated from this sea area due to the outbreak of the beast tide. It just so happened that the faint mist formed on the sea surface by the smoke emitted by the volcano was able to conceal Qianhai's position.
But they were too close to the inland sea now. To be on the safe side, Qian Hai took off the animal teeth from the bow of the ship and put them away before following An Xiu to check the hull.
The extent of the damage to the hull was indeed far beyond Qian Hai's expectations. In addition to the impact suffered by the beast tide, most of the damage was caused when the clipper escaped at the speed of light. Especially the magic circle carved on the hull is almost lost in the process of moving at the speed of light.
It didn't take long for Qian Hai to use tamperers to repair all the physical damage to the hull. As for the incomplete magic arrays, An Xiu had to rely on An Xiu's speculation to complete as many of them as possible.
At noon the next day, on the uneven rocks, An Xiu released a whirlwind at the bottom of the clipper and slowly lifted it up. Qian Hai stood on the side of the clipper and pushed the clipper into the sea with all his strength.
Qian Hai turned over and jumped on the clipper, turned around and waved to An Xiu: "Come on, let's try to see how far this ship has been repaired by us~"
An Xiu jumped on the boat and said in a low mood: "We haven't even been able to fully repair the power furnace. Maybe our previous expectations were too optimistic."
"We are not optimistic and we have no other options now." Qian Hai was not worried at all. He walked into the cab and started the clipper, "Let's try it first and then talk about it."
According to An Xiu's instructions in advance, Qian Hai slowly pushed the gear lever to keep the ship moving at a low speed. After An Xiu confirmed that various equipment in the cab were operating normally, he turned around and went inside the ship to check the operation of various parts.
Qian Hai drove the clipper around the reef twice. When he saw An Xiu coming back from the lower level, he hurriedly asked: "How is it? Is everything running normally?"
"Everything is running normally," An Xiu sighed softly: "As I guessed, most of the magic arrays on the hull are used to increase various resistances. Now most of the magic arrays are ineffective, and the hull It is also much more fragile than before.”
Qian Hai smiled and comforted: "Hey, what's the point of worrying about something that was expected? How about I try turning on the energy shield now?"
Seeing that An Xiu had no objection, Qian Hai turned on the switch of the energy shield. With a slight buzzing sound, the energy shield slowly enveloped the clipper.
"Not bad, it can be activated normally," Qian Hai looked at An Xiu, "Has the energy cannon been checked? Can it still be used?"
An Xiu nodded, "I just saw it and it can be used normally."
"Then it's over," Qian Hai said with a smile: "Now the ship can sail normally, and the energy shield and energy cannon can also be used. It will definitely be no problem to sail into the inland sea!"
"You should increase the speed of the boat to the fastest first, and then we'll see what happens." An Xiu still didn't feel optimistic.
"Okay," Qian Hai gradually increased the speed of the boat and sailed away. After a while, Qian Hai looked at the gear lever that had been pushed to the top and frowned slightly, "The maximum speed of the boat is much slower now than before."
"That's right," An Xiu lowered his head and calculated on the paper as he said: "The current maximum ship speed can only barely reach two-thirds of the past. Taken together, the entire ship's repair level is actually only Sixty percent."
Qian Hai looked back at An Xiu, "You don't need to talk about those data, just talk about whether this ship can sail to the inland sea!"
"Yes, yes," An Xiu accidentally looked into the distance, suddenly pointed out the window, and shouted loudly: "Qian Hai! What is that?!"
"Huh?!" Qian Hai was immediately alert and looked in the direction An Xiu pointed with his eyes. He saw a sea beast several meters long floating on the sea!
"Holy crap!! Didn't you say that all the sea beasts have escaped?!" Qian Hai was also startled and hurriedly turned on the tamperer.
Hearing Qian Hai's confirmation that a sea beast had appeared, An Xiu quickly urged Qian Hai, "Quick! Stop looking and turn around! If our ship is attacked by sea beasts again, we won't be able to reach the inland sea at all!!"
"Wait a minute, wait a minute," Qian Hai stared at the level 49 sea beast that was white and said softly, "That sea beast should be dead."
"Dead, dead?? Are you sure?" When they first went out to sea, the experience of encountering the corpse of a sea beast in the windless sea still left An Xiu with lingering fears.
"Well, I'm very sure that the sea beast is not in any danger. Let's go over and have a look." Without waiting for An Xiu's consent, Qian Hai turned the ship and sailed towards the sea beast.
An Xiu quickly ran to the stern of the ship, holding the book of records tightly with one hand, and controlling the energy cannon with the other hand to always aim at the sea beast. But until Qian Hai brought the boat closer to less than two meters away from the sea beast, nothing happened.
"Is it really dead??" An Xiu looked at Qian Hai in confusion.
"Didn't I just say it? Can I make the same mistake twice?" Qian Hai pulled the gear lever to stop the clipper, walked to the deck and jumped onto the sea beast, turned around and said to An Xiu with a smile: "You Guard the ship while I take out all the good stuff from this guy."
This dark brown sea beast was covered in bite wounds and obvious high-temperature burns, which were caused while escaping from the volcanic eruption. However, being able to run so far from that kind of natural disaster before dying is enough to illustrate the strength of this sea beast when it was alive.
Qian Hai put his hand on the back of the sea beast's head to activate the tamperer, and easily took out the crystal core growing at the connection between the back of the head and the torso, and then removed the tail bone and claws of the sea beast. Feeling that there was no valuable material in other parts, Qian Hai turned around and jumped back to the Clippers.
"How's it going? Do you have any good materials?" It was the first time for An Xiu to collect materials from the corpses of sea beasts, and his words were full of expectations.
