Ethan’s Fantasy Drift

After parking the boat, Ethan turned around the beach. At first, he wanted to set up his camp on the beach by the sea, but after observing for a while, he found that it was too close to the sea. The resting place that he had built with great difficulty might be submerged by the rising tide, and he had no choice but to move forward for a while.

"It's nice here."

Looking back, it happened to be a small dirt slope, and it was also a certain distance from the woods, so as to avoid something suddenly jumping out of the woods and making myself unable to react.

The slightly higher terrain can also avoid the sea water that spreads up from the high tide.

"I have to build a shed next."

Ethan looked up at the sky, the originally clear sky did not know when dark clouds began to appear, and it seemed that it would rain in the next second.

If he can't build a shelter in the shortest time, he can only go back to the boat to rest.

After drifting at sea for so long, he really wanted to sleep soundly on land now.

Even exploring the island has to be put aside for now.

"Fortunately, in the dark world, I learned how to make tents with simple materials."

With Ethan's current strength, he can't easily chop down a big tree, and then use dazzling swordsmanship to chop wood into the materials he needs, and then use amazing craftsmanship to build a perfect wooden house.

His current strength can only allow him to collect and carry some slightly sturdy branches, and the thick wrist is already the limit.

For the roof of the shed, he found some relatively large and thick leaves, and then peeled off the bark from the branches and twisted them into ropes. Combining these messy things together, it becomes a simple tent.

Ethan repaired back and forth, and finally looked at the strangely-shaped tent in front of him, and could only helplessly smile: "Anyway, it can shelter from the wind and rain."

I patted it casually. Although the tent is not very beautiful, it is still very strong and should not be blown down by the wind...

Climbing into the tent, Ethan stretched fiercely on the 'bed' made of big leaves, thinking about where he should start exploring this island tomorrow.

"Let's take a look around the island first."

If possible, Ethan wants to explore every inch of the island, circle the island and approach the center in circles, so that he can ensure that he can visit every part of the entire island, increasing the The probability of finding the magic stone by yourself.

But he also knew that this approach was not advisable, because it was a waste of time.

After many adventurers find the island again, the first choice is always to enter the most central area for exploration. It seems that having the most valuable things in the center of the island has become a general rule.

"It's definitely not right, otherwise that person told me that there are magic stones on almost all islands, and it would become common knowledge that everyone knows."

But the reality is that old sailors like Wood who have been floating at sea for several years may not know this.

"Let's look for it slowly, turn around first, choose a standard reference in several directions, and then choose a direction to explore inside."

The exclusion of one direction and one direction, although it is a little worse than the method of moving toward the center in a circle, is already the most practical method at present.

"It's still a bit troublesome to do this kind of thing by myself. It would be nice if I could have a helper."

Humans are always gregarious creatures. When he first went to sea, Ethan had just left the village. He had been with many people for several years.

Later, there was the pressure of survival, plus he found that the sea was not calm, and there was an urgent need to improve his own strength, so he did not have the energy to think about these things for a while.

Now that the strength has improved, the safety has a certain guarantee, and the pressure of survival has suddenly been much less. In addition, I had taken risks with Isandra and Zul for a while before, and I was used to the existence of teammates, and suddenly changed back to one. People, inevitably feel a little lonely.

"In my situation, it's not easy to find teammates."

During the tossing and turning, Ethan fell asleep to the sound of the rain, which gradually became louder. In the dream, he had a lot of teammates and a very large ship. A group of friends lived happily on the ship, and they were on adventures again and again. Finally, I finally found the legendary endless land...

When Ethan opened his eyes, the sun had already risen, and the warm sunlight had warmed his humble tent, and the rainwater left over from last night had disappeared.

Walking out of the tent and washing with the rainwater specially stored last night, Ethan remembered his previous dream.

"Why is the boat full of men in my dream? Didn't even a girl fool around? That's a good boat!"

Angrily, he threw the leaves in his hand to the ground, and Ethan put on the armor that Chassi gave him.

He only wore this armor for a long time when he first returned to the Sea of ​​Tranquility, and he never wore it again after that. He just took it out for cleaning and maintenance every day.

Armor, even if it is light armor, is not so comfortable to wear.

At the same time, Ethan finally understood why the medieval knights wore a layer of battle robes when wearing armor, and also covered their entire backs with cloaks.

"I used to think that the cloak was just for decoration, but it wasn't..."

One thing that metal armor cannot avoid is that it will absorb heat under direct sunlight. If it is not blocked by capes and shirts, it will be a moving metal oven in a slightly hot weather.

In winter, the metal will absorb the cold air again. If it is not wrapped in a thick cloak, it will become a mobile freezer.

The armor that Charsi gave him had no accessories such as shirts and capes, so Ethan couldn't stand it after wearing it for only a short time, so he had to take it off.

This time Ethan will wear it, because he has no way of knowing what danger exists on this small island. It is better to wear all the equipment just in case.

At the same time, except for walking around the island at the beginning, most of the island is densely forested, sheltered by leaves to avoid direct sunlight, and Ethan doesn't have to worry about his armor turning into an oven.

"Alternatively, consider installing a temperature-regulating magic circle on the armor."

Persistently walking around the island, Ethan, who felt that the armor was getting hotter and hotter, had to adjust his forward route and choose to walk in the shade as much as possible.

Fortunately, the island is not particularly big, and Ethan is not weak in endurance and walking distance, so he quickly walked around the island and returned to his camp.

"The island is not big. I only walked around in the middle of the night. Before it gets dark, I can explore the woods."

By the way, he still needs to find some food, and he has seen some fruit trees along the way. That is a special product of this world, and he had this kind of fruit in the materials he exchanged from the guild before.

The name of this kind of fruit is called fruit. It is a kind of fruit similar to coconut. It is smaller than coconut and has a blue-green skin. It is very fragile. The interior is hollow, and inside it is stored water with a botanical aroma.

In addition to the clear water prepared by himself, this fruit is the main source of water in the world, and almost every adventurer will store as much fruit as possible on their ship.

The water in the bucket has been stored for a long time, and if there is no water purification magic stone, it will be spoiled and cannot be drunk, and this kind of fruit can be stored for a very long time.

In addition, Ethan guessed that the water in this fruit also contains enough vitamins, because in this poor world, many adventurers rely on salted fish jerky and temporarily caught seafood as food, and the intake of green vegetables There are very few, but none of the various sailing diseases that I know about, the biggest possibility is the existence of these fruits.

Before, Ethan relied on his ability to use the water-making technique, so he didn't bring much fruit, but now he accidentally found a lot on this island, which can fill a warehouse of his own ship.

"I don't know if there is anything else?"

In the days that followed, Ethan's life became very regular again. Get up every day to wash and eat, and then start to explore the island according to the previous plan, collecting food that you know - if you don't know, take a sample and prepare to take it back to the guild to ask.

"It's a mistake, you should buy a book of various known foods or something."

After all, Ethan does not have much experience. He is still groping for a lot of things now. There are many rules in this world that are different from his previous life. It is normal to think for a while. Fortunately, he will always keep his mistakes firmly in mind and avoid repeating them next time.

While exploring like this, Ethan slowly approached the center of the island.

There is nothing strange in the center of the island, just a small soil slope. Compared with the surrounding green trees, it looks a bit desolate, and there is no grass.

Ethan has been here several times before, but he has never found anything strange.

"Is it underground?"

If so, it would be troublesome. Ethan didn't bring any tools for digging. Could he use his long sword to dig the soil? If Kasha knows, will he cross the plane to kill himself with a knife?

Just when Ethan was still hesitating whether to continue to explore other unknown areas first, or to dig here and take a look, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the woods ahead, and then a few people walked out of the woods. .

When Ethan looked up, he found that there were acquaintances among them.

It was Rodney who was among the two people he rescued, and he would leave State Island early because he noticed that Rodney seemed to be malicious to himself.

Sure enough, what this guy did next perfectly confirmed Ethan's judgment.

"Ha, it turned out to be you! You're really unlucky to be bumped into by us here!" Rodney didn't seem to expect to bump into Ethan, but he immediately became excited after being stunned for two seconds. "Captain, it's this kid! He has the magic stone for battle that he got from Wood!"
