Chapter 17: Cabin Upgrades
The female fish-people's bodies are transformed and cannot withstand any sunlight, but other fish-people are different, they hate the sun, and the sunlight can also cause them some damage.
But the damage is not fatal.
The space on the 4th floor of the lighthouse was filled with a thick bloody aura, and the headless corpse of the fish-man leader fell to the ground, and the blue blood had long since coagulated.
Looking at this hideous corpse up close, Roger still couldn't help but be secretly frightened, if it wasn't for the shotgun hitting the head at close range, it would be too difficult to kill the other party with a cold weapon alone.
Roger took out the pendant, the surface of the pendant did not change, but he could clearly feel a trace of burning heat in his hand.
"Is there any connection between the two?"
Roger frowned.
Maybe this pendant once belonged to this leader, which is why he will attack the lighthouse in every possible way to retrieve his own things.
But perhaps, there is a relationship between the fishwoman and the leader of the fishmen that Roger is not clear about, and there are too many answers, and it may even be another story.
Holding back the discomfort in his heart, Roger slowly crouched down, and at this moment, the model of the wooden house in his mind shimmered, and then a line of text came into view.
The Bestiary has been updated.
Fishman Leader's Corpse (Special Mutant): In the group of Gulf Fishmen, 1~2 powerful boss-level monsters will be born depending on the number of collectives.
Their qualities are stronger than those of ordinary fishmen, and there are even extremely special ones who can produce advanced wisdom.
The mutated parts of the body can be hung in the display area of the room as a base or loot for various powerful alchemy formulas!
For more information, check out the Bestiary.
"Mutations?"
Thinking of some situations in the wizarding world, Roger leaned forward with the pendant in his hand, and finally, in the heart of the fish-man leader, the pendant had a stronger response.
"What should I do?"
"Just dissect his body?"
Roger hesitated for a moment, this was the real world, and in front of him was a bloody corpse.
Although the blue blood counteracts a lot of horror, the hideousness at the fracture is still extremely disgusting.
After much hesitation, Roger still raised the iron axe in his hand.
What happened on the island reminded him all the time that this world was completely different from his previous life.
In such a world, if he wants to live better, he can only rely on the special abilities he brings when he crosses.
Half an hour later.
After vomiting several times, Roger finally split open the sturdy sternum of the fish-man leader and took out a heart with a little light from it!
Without this heart, the corpse of the leader of the fishmen instantly dried up, as if all the essence of this body had been absorbed by this heart.
Roger casually raised his axe, and this time he easily severed one of the Fish-Man Leader's arms with little effort.
What's even more bizarre is that the weight of the corpse has also dropped significantly.
Now that Kant is dead, Roger is left alone on the island, the storm has stopped, and according to Kant, it won't be long before supply ships arrive on the island.
The most important thing in Roger's eyes is how to deal with the stranger who is about to land on the island.
About his identity, about Kant and about the tower that was burned in front of him.
"I've got to figure it out."
Roger then searched the inside of the lighthouse, and he only picked out a few useful books, and the food was stored on the third floor, most of which were destroyed in the fire.
The most important thing is Kant's diary and the book of transience, and the rest is the corpse of the leader of the fish-people.
In order to avoid trouble, this thing must not be seen by ordinary people.
He retrieved a large piece of black cloth, wrapped the corpse of the leader of the fishmen in it, and led it downstairs.
Looking at the charred half of the tower in front of him, Roger threw out the torch in his hand, and it didn't take long for the flames to rise into the sky.
The fire burned from afternoon to evening, and was not extinguished until it became dark, this time without the influence of the storm, and the flames completely destroyed the entire tower, and Roger deliberately manipulated Kant's corpse to ensure that no trace was left.
As the sun sets, the island becomes silent at night, and the sky is full of stars, and if it weren't for what had happened before, the beauty in front of you would be enough to indulge.
Roger arrives near his hut, where he discovers that the pit where the fish-man corpse was once buried has been dug up again.
Naturally, the corpses inside have long since disappeared, and several clear footprints can be seen on the surrounding land.
After thinking about it, Roger tied the corpse of the fish-man leader to a stone and sank it to the bottom of the sea.
After a moment's hesitation, he took out the pendant he had obtained from the fishwoman and hung it in front of the burned tower.
The pendant was obviously not ordinary, but it also contained a terrible danger, and it was most likely that those fishmen came to this island for this pendant.
The lighthouse had been completely breached in last night's attack, and there was little point in continuing to keep it, and Roger didn't know when the supply ship would dock, and if there were too many traces, it would be difficult for him to explain.
So after thinking about it again, he burned the lighthouse down.
The storm had stopped, and according to Kant, the fish-people would never land again, but for safety reasons, Roger hung the pendant in front of the tower.
If a fishman is attracted by the pendant, they will naturally land on the island, and they take the pendant, and their own safety is greatly guaranteed.
If he hadn't come, he would have been able to take the pendant before leaving.
Although the treasure is good, it is still worth the life.
In this regard, Roger has always kept a clear head.
He already had some ideas in mind about what to say.
Now that Roger has done everything he can, all that's left is to wait.
Walking into the wooden house, the wooden house model in my mind glowed strongly, and an inquiry appeared in front of my eyes.
"Found ordinary loot, mutated fish-man hearts, loot contributed 32%, and the evaluation was average."
"Whether to hand over the loot and place it in the display area."
"Note that loot in the display cannot be reused as alchemy material."
"After handing in the loot, the hunter's residence will usher in the first upgrade, and it can be relocated after certain conditions are met."
"Upgrade?"
Seeing this word, Roger's eyes lit up, he was still a little hesitant, but he thought that he was about to leave the island soon, and the upgraded cabin could leave with him.
This simply solved his biggest concern now, and thinking of this, he took the initiative to hand over the heart in his hand.
"Submit!"
The faint light in front of him flowed, the heart in his hand disappeared out of thin air like fine sand, the structure of the living room changed slightly, and a wall facing the head of the bed appeared with intricate patterns.
The vanished heart reappeared, hanging from the wall.
It seems that after special treatment, this trophy is far from an ordinary heart at first glance, and even has some peculiar beauty.
"The upgrade is complete!"
Looking at the more elaborate model of the wooden house in his mind, Roger controlled his mind and clicked on.
