Treasure Hunting System: The Ocean Conquerer
Chapter 970 - 405: At Sea (Part 2)
At this moment, the height of the room's ceiling extends outward, reaching a height of 3 meters.
Looking around, he finds that the walls on both sides and the doorway haven't changed.
The entire room has only changed in height and length.
"Is this controllable?" Alka asked.
Because in terms of practicality, expanding the length and width should be the most cost-effective.
Increasing the height is clearly the least practical.
Simon shook his head awkwardly: "Actually, it's uncontrollable. To put it simply, it's a bit like gambling on luck."
"Gambling on luck?" Julia asked, intrigued and puzzled on the side.
Does stuff like this really rely on luck?
"Yes, the size of the room will indeed expand, but as for how exactly it expands and in which direction, that's down to luck."
Simon said as he used Magic Power to splice together a square to begin demonstrating to everyone.
"We've tested it before, and one room expanded solely in height, turning into a deep well-like room.
There are also cases where each side expanded slightly, and the most practical one was expanding the length and width only."
With every word, the square he spliced using Magic Power started changing, making his explanation more intuitive.
"I've never come across such transformations before in literature." Alka said, somewhat puzzled.
Simon nodded: "That's where the problem lies. The reasons may be due to changes in materials or changes caused by the world's damage.
The world used to be solid, reliable, and orderly, so many things became orderly too.
But now the world is chaotic, and such chaos affects everything, including what used to be orderly."
"So this randomness is actually hard to change?" Chadite asked, frowning on the side.
"Very difficult, almost impossible, because we've observed chaotic disorder mixed into the spatial expansion unless the world fully returns to normal."
Hearing this, everyone nodded and no longer tangled over this matter.
"But there's another way to restore the expanded part and expand it again for better results." Simon said, pointing at Alka.
"Me? ... Are you talking about the Heart of Vastwa?" Alka asked first in confusion, then guessed.
"Correct, during my recent readings, I came across records of Vastwa's past research in the materials.
It should be possible, but maybe we currently lack the strength, needing greater power to master it more intricately."
Upon hearing this, Alka nodded.
However, the girls were no longer surrounding them, but were running around the entire room observing. They had even started discussing how to remodel the newly-expanded space.
They were unusually interested in redecorating their room.
"Let's put a fish tank here!"
"This needs everyone's agreement."
"Let's have a bird here, one that can carry us when flying."
"No way."
"Then how about a clean swimming pool here?"
"That sounds good."
Even the usually composed Zero stood among the Puppet Girls, adopting or rejecting some ideas based on everyone's opinions.
Watching the heated discussion among the Puppet Girls, Akka smiled and signaled everyone to quietly withdraw, closing the door behind them.
...
Voyage on the sea is always accompanied by monotony.
Fortunately, everyone on the ship had long become accustomed, in such dull days, developing their hobbies and killing time.
Another day with high and bright sun.
Or rather, it always seemed like sunny days with high and bright sun.
Pororo was seated at the ship's bow on a small stool.
Due to his large stature, even sitting down, he was taller than those beside him.
He held a specially made giant fishing rod in his hands, and as the ship sailed, he engaged in sea fishing.
Alka was beside him, wearing an ordinary straw hat to shield against the scorching sun.
Calming his mood, steadily fishing.
"Weren't you someone who didn't like fishing before?" Jason also engaged in fishing on the other side.
Hearing this, Pororo shrugged his shoulders slightly.
"Boring."
Hearing this, Jason merely chuckled: "Ha, boring but fishing every day?"
"None of your business."
Pororo indeed used to dislike fishing earlier, thinking it was not efficient at all.
At that time, he'd rather rely on his strong swimming skills to dive in and catch fish.
Catch larger fish faster.
Not experiencing the joy of fishing.
Finally, after experiencing fishing with Jason and Juanlu, he naturally became a fishing enthusiast.
The satisfaction of catching fish was much greater than catching fish directly.
Of course, Alka also felt he probably got tired of catching fish.
"Stop talking, there's movement here." Juanlu, silently fishing, suddenly spoke.
With these words, everyone instantly quieted down, tilting their heads towards Juanlu's direction.
The float bobbing on the ocean, swaying continuously with the ship's movement.
But they didn't rely on this to feel the presence of fish but rather sensed it through the pull of the fishing rod.
Given that the ocean held these wild ocean fish, full of wildness.
Suddenly, Juanlu's fishing rod bent into an exaggerated curve, immense force seemed to want to break the rod.
Feeling the immense power transmitted to him, Juanlu quickly applied his Magic Power, Magic Power surged rapidly onto the rod, enhancing its flexibility.
