The fish was at least four or five pounds, and it was still flopping around and rocking the boat.

Do you want to dismantle the fish?

"Dismantle! Dismantle it now! I‘m about almost dismantled by it!" Raine said hastily, bothering to ask many questions.

In an instant, the living and breathing fish turned into a portion of fish skin, a portion of fish meat, a pile of fish guts, and a neat fish bone. The boat finally smoothed.

Gain +1 fish skin, +1 fish meat, +1 fish bone

"What's the use of these things?" Raine asked, but unfortunately, the system didn't answer him, at which point he remembered that the AI system that could answer questions had quit permanently. Now This system was a programmed system that could only assist him but couldn't answer his questions.

When Raine called the basic information bar, he found an additional sub-menu behind them.

Material Collection: 3

After opening this sub-menu, new information appeared.

Fish Skin: 1; Fish Bone: 1; Fish Meat: 1
List of Manufacturable Items: 5
Fish Skin Bottom: 1/100 (fish skin) reduces the resistance and corrosion of the seawater (can be recycled after upgrading the ship)
Short Rope: 1/3 (fish skin) can be used to reinforce the ship's planking, etc, and is one of the most commonly used items
Fishbone Spikes: 14/1 (fishbone spine part) used as iron nails replacement, low sturdiness, easy to break, but better than nothing
Dried Fish: 1/1 (fish meat) can be stored for a long time, food for the crew, tasty and nutritious
Small Simple Seawater Purification Device: 1/4 (fish skin) 0/1 (wood) 0/1 (short rope) 0/10 (fishbone nail) A simple device for purifying seawater into drinking water

"Eh?" Raine had played many games, so he already understood what these hints meant as soon as he saw them. Only the question was, what did these manufacturable items mean for his evolution?

Once he'd saved enough evolution points, won't he be able to upgrade to the next type? Did he have to collect these resources?

After a moment of thinking, Raine thought of a possibility.

It was like a car, Mazda was a car, and Ferrari was also a car. But obviously, the two were different.

When your car is equipped with ergonomic leather seats, diamond surround sound, a night navigation system, and other luxurious features, plus an aero engine with finely sculpted streamlined lines ... it will be a qualitative difference in both performance and appearance!

"I see. These things are sort of accessories. Some can enhance the performance of the boat. Some are just normally used tools. But these do not determine the ship's level." Raine said thoughtfully.

After thinking about it, Raine was relieved.

Since it wasn't necessary, Raine was much more relaxed and began looking through these items. Maybe there was something that could help him a little at the moment.

From the five manufacturable items, it was easy to see that fish skin was the most useful.

Fish is just a food item, and now he only has one crew. If White is fed, all crew is fed. He does not need it in hurry.

Fishbones are useful for making fishbone spikes, and keeping a few is good.

"Making 14 fishbone spikes."

A few seconds later.

-1 for losing fishbones, +14 for gaining fishbone spikes, which were already set on the edge of the raft

"Ouch, my ass, you just put nails in me!"

Luckily it didn't hurt.

After checking the supplies again, the number of fishbone nails in the "Small Simple Seawater Purification Device" became "14/10", which was enough.

Raine was satisfied with the system's efficiency. Although he had no hands and feet, he could leave the job to the system. As long as he had the materials, he didn't have to worry about not being able to make something.

"I need 10 wood to evolve. It's up to God. It's a bit difficult for now. Now I should make sure White survives. I already got the fish. Now the missing is drinking water."

"A small simple seawater purification device requires 7 fish skins and a piece of wood. This is much better to get. OK, let's do that first!"

Having set a short-term goal for now, Raine immediately looked to his only crew.

"White, do you hear me? This is our general strategy at this stage. As a member of this ship, you must work hard to get the job done, do you understand?" Raine said to White.

"Woof!"

"Hmm, good, there are fish active below, go!"

White flicked his tail and instantly leaped into the sea, and he caught his second fish in no time!

Get fish meat +1

Get fish skin +1

Get fish bone +1

Seeing this series of messages, Raine looked like was shot with chicken blood.

"White, well done!"

"Throw away all the fish meat and fish bones, just the skin!"

........................

Two days later, White was very helpful. He caught a total of thirty fish. Raine made three pieces of fish meat into dried, tied them to the boat, and threw away all the other supplies, except for a few pieces of fish meat that White ate.

The main thing was the skins. Raine kept 4 skins and made 9 ropes with the rest.

He used six to re-enforced the raft's front, middle, and back, leaving three ropes.

Two of these he tied to the middle of the boat, one to hold the fish and one for White to bite into the case of rapids.

The last strip is reserved for the water purification unit.

After re-enforcing, now his body is much more solid than before. With almost no gaps between the three bamboo poles and much stronger so that they no longer rub and sway against each other.

With the reinforced hull, now Raine is less afraid of the usual small winds and waves.

However, so far, Raine had not come across any wood. And White had been drinking seawater for two days, so he was more prone to dehydration than usual.

Raine had spent two days with White, and the little fellow had been very obedient, going down to the sea to catch fish during the day and then sleeping exhausted on the raft at night. Seeing White sit there listless and groggy as if fallen asleep in his arms. Raine was not feeling well either.

"White, just hang on a little longer. I'll get the wood!" Raine said anxiously.

Both in terms of White's usefulness and Raine's feelings for White, he couldn't let White die!

"Damn it, where are we going to find wood? Do you think wood grows out of the water? Will it float to me?"

Found scattered timber in 37 degrees northeast, 477m ahead.

The system alert sounded in Raine's head.

"What?" Raine didn't expect he had just said be face-slapping immediately.

"Good thing I have thick skin! I don't need respect at all! Smash me with wood if you can!"

"White, go! Get rich!"
