47: Chapter 47 Can Talents Be Upgraded?

After several rounds of battle, from the deck to the bathroom, and finally to the bedroom.

Chen Fan felt like his head was about to explode.

He coaxed and tricked Lairuilei until she was happy, and only then did she let Chen Fan go.

She took off the plaid skirt that had been torn into strips and changed back into her green outfit.

Before Chen Fan could speak, she let out a cold snort and vanished from where she stood.

"Phew, that's good. She didn't dwell on it too much."

Chen Fan let out a long sigh of relief and stood up, leaning on the nightstand.

Although he enjoyed the process, the frequency was too high, making it a bit uncomfortable.

He rubbed his sore waist and got up to check the regional chat channel.

While he was entangled with the two women, the other Players had already discussed the situation regarding the Night Instance for over a dozen rounds.

Most people closed their live streams immediately.

But there were still some with strong resistance who endured the discomfort to finish watching the live stream and even recorded it.

Out of the seven Players, six were killed instantly by the tentacle as soon as they entered.

The remaining Player was lucky enough not to encounter the tentacle, but hadn't sailed for long before being blown up by a cannon blast.

"@Flying Sky, are you okay, boss?"

"Okay my foot. If you die in the dungeon, you reset and restart. He's probably crying in some corner right now."

"Haha, just upgraded to a sailboat, and died before even getting a chance to show off."

"@Flying Sky, buddy, come out and share your acceptance speech."

"You above are really mean, but I like it."

The Players were mocking or gloating, and people kept tagging the seven who entered the dungeon.

But strangely, no one came out to respond.

Emperor narrowed his eyes and sent a message.

"@Flying Sky, pop up, This Great Master will give you some supplies to help you recover."

"@Emperor, boss Emperor is so generous, I want some too!"

"Brother Emperor, give us Brothers some supplies too, why don't you?"

"Go away, don't stir up trouble. Great Di Wang is giving some consolation to the guinea pigs who braved the dungeon, what are you joining in for?"

Everyone was chatting away.

After all, it was late at night, and everyone was lying on their warship getting ready to sleep.

This huge piece of gossip had attracted all their attention.

Everyone was waiting for those seven to pop up.

However, even though Emperor used supplies to lure him, Flying Sky made no movement.

Just as the Players were confused, the player who was killed by the cannon blast popped up.

earth burrowing ship: "Holy crap, something happened! My brother Flying Sky has been out of contact, and his avatar has turned gray."

As soon as this was said, the regional chat exploded.

"@earth burrowing ship, what did you say? The avatar turned gray?"

"Good heavens! If the avatar turns gray, that means he logged off."

"Logged off? What does that mean?"

"Upstairs, logged off means he's already dead."

"Damn, it seems to be true. Kun Kun ship is our captain. After he died in the dungeon, his avatar has been gray until now."

"Holy crap! Didn't they say that dying in the dungeon doesn't mean logging off, just resetting?"

"@earth burrowing ship, that's not right. Didn't you die too? Why didn't you log off?"

earth burrowing ship: "How would I know? After I died inside, I came out instantly. If I hadn't encountered a group of crazy fish, I would have popped up long ago."

The news brought by earth burrowing ship cast a shadow over the Players' hearts.

They were able to enter the dungeon recklessly because they wouldn't truly die in there.

If they encountered dangers they couldn't resist, they could just reset and restart.

But now, six people who died in the Night Instance had actually logged off!

If the Night Instance is like this, what about the Daytime Instance?

Could it be that they log off as soon as they die there too?

Thinking of this, the Players had to re-evaluate whether they should enter the dungeon.

Only a few smart people saw the difference.

Through the video, it was clear to see that those six were killed by the tentacle.

While earth burrowing ship was killed by a cannon blast.

In other words, does it mean that as long as you aren't killed by the tentacle, you won't log off?

Thinking of this, these smart Players couldn't help but secretly make up their minds.

Next time in the dungeon, if they happen to encounter a tentacle, they will immediately jump into the sea to commit suicide.

By doing this, although they will reset, at least they won't log off.

Chen Fan endured the discomfort and watched the recordings of the seven Players before their deaths, confirming his conjecture.

"It seems that this tentacle is an existence that transcends the game system; one cannot be killed by it!"

"Currently, the Night Instance is temporarily inaccessible, so I can only focus on the main storyline and the Daytime Instance."

Chen Fan withdrew his gaze and looked at the group chat.

"You guys should trade away all the white treasure chests. Mainly exchange them for high-level materials that we haven't seen before, as well as gold coins and rope. Don't worry about the rest for now."

Vase: "Alright, but Brother Fan, can't these white treasure chests really produce good things?"

speechless ship: "How about we open some and see?"

Chen Fan shook his head, "No need, I've tried many times, the white treasure chests are useless."

Seeing Chen Fan's persistence, they didn't say anything more and went to find people to trade for supplies.

Suddenly, Samo exclaimed:

"Look everyone, what is this!"

"Image.jpg"

Chen Fan looked closely and was immediately shocked.

In the picture, a Bull Shark nearly three meters long was struggling on the deck.

Vase: "Wow, Sister Samo, you caught a shark?"

speechless ship: "Isn't your Fishing Talent C-grade? How were you able to catch a shark!"

Samo: "I discovered something shocking!!!"

After pausing for a moment, she screamed again: "My Fishing Talent has upgraded to B-grade."

long time ship: "!!!"

speechless ship: "!!!"

Demon: "!!!"

Vase: "Really? Don't tease us."

"If you don't believe me, look. Image.jpg"

"When I have nothing to do, I always keep the fishing rod out. Just now, after catching the Bull Shark, the system notified me that my Talent has upgraded!"

"Stop talking nonsense for now, Brother Fan, take this thing quickly, otherwise it's going to tear my deck apart!"

[Obtained: Bull Shark x100.]

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes, accepted the trade request, and casually placed the Bull Shark into his system space.

Then he carefully examined the picture.

[Congratulations, your Talent: Fishing (C-grade) has upgraded to — Fishing (B-grade).]

Vase: "Wow! Doesn't that mean my Talent can also be upgraded?!!"

Samo: "I think it should be possible, but you need to use the Talent many times. I can't even remember how many fish I've caught in these past few days."

Vase: "Hehe, looks like I need to work hard on Purification of freshwater."

Just then, an out-of-place text message popped up.

"Shh... I think I've discovered something incredible."

Demon did not send a voice message, but typed a string of text.

Following it was a picture.

In the picture, on a pitch-black island, a faint firelight was flickering.

More importantly, these lights were actually moving.

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and said softly:

"An island with people?"

"Mhm, I've been observing for a long time, there must be people on the island."

Demon was still typing.
