The red potion and the pink potion were fine, both were pure liquids.
But this colorless potion… it contained the legs of several long-legged sardines... you had to drink and chew it, and it was very sticky.
"Seraphina, what are these potions made of?" Lucas Hall asked.
But Seraphina didn't respond.
"Seraphina?" Lucas Hall called again.
Still no response.
Something felt off. Lucas Hall reached out to touch her and found that her body was slightly warm.
"This woman!"
He immediately opened the ship's log and checked Seraphina's information under the crew section.
This information only included health status, but not attributes or talents.
Seraphina
Status: Injured/ Fever/ Exhausted and fainted (A human figure, slightly yellow all over)
Rationality: 35/80 (Madness — Obsession)
Health: 82/100
Energy: 12/100
"Her rationality limit is only 80?" Lucas Hall furrowed his brows.
This was the first time he had actively checked Seraphina's information.
After reading it, Lucas Hall understood.
Seraphina must not have slept much these past few days, staying in the lab and neglecting her health, ultimately wearing herself out!
With energy below 30, she could faint at any time!
"Obsession..."
This was the first time Lucas Hall saw the madness state. It seemed like there were many different types of madness.
His talent was special, so he wouldn't go mad, and there would be no prompts, even if his rationality reached 1.
"She's really troublesome, can't even take care of herself!" Lucas Hall frowned.
As the captain, he had the highest authority, including controlling the access to rooms.
So Lucas Hall immediately restricted Seraphina's access to the lab and revoked her rights to enter.
He then took some salt and a vitality coconut, and mixed them on the spot to make a coconut drink. He lifted Seraphina's chin and fed it to her. Though he spilled a lot, it didn't matter.
He was originally planning to feed her the colorless potion, but it was thick and sticky, and required chewing. Its effects were unclear.
Feeding it to a sick person was too dangerous, so he decided against it.
"She's really heavy!" Lucas Hall complained.
Normally, his strength was only 4, below the average of an adult, so carrying Seraphina was quite the challenge.
It took a lot of effort, and his strength experience went up by 1 point before he finally managed to carry her back to her room, panting like a bull.
"This woman must be made of cement, her chest isn't big, she doesn't look fat, so why is she so heavy?"
Fortunately, the Nightmare Star was a small ship. If it had been something like the Iron Will, a giant ship, Lucas Hall would have needed to drag her.
Seraphina's room was next to the captain's quarters, and it was Lucas Hall's first time entering.
It was completely different from his own captain's quarters. There was no musty smell, and the wooden floor felt solid underfoot.
There were even several glowing crystal balls embedded in the ceiling, providing light.
This room must have been copied from the original Astrologer's ship's captain's quarters, and it didn't fit with the ghost ship at all.
Lucas Hall laid Seraphina on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and left a note in the journal.
"I've restricted your access to the lab! Check the activity log when you wake up! You didn't even realize you've gone mad!"
But would someone who was mad actually care about their activity log and check their rationality value?
Lucas Hall wasn't sure since he had never gone mad himself.
After sending the private message, he was about to leave when he suddenly noticed a small booklet on the table, with a few words written on it—Lucas Hall's Observation Journal.
"What is this?"
Curious, Lucas Hall opened it and after reading just a few pages, he felt his scalp tingling.
It contained all sorts of information about him, including what he ate, when he slept, how long he slept, when he went to the bathroom, how long it took, and everything in between!
Seraphina: "His rationality is below 50, but he doesn't go mad. Does he have some special talent? I really want to see his brain structure!"
Reading this, Lucas Hall felt a chill run down his spine. His gaze turned cold as he looked at the sleeping Seraphina.
This woman... has she been treating me like some lab animal?
A trace of murderous intent flashed through Lucas Hall's mind.
Luckily, the tone of the journal changed drastically at the end.
"He can be so clueless too! When I pointed a gun at him, that expression was too funny, I secretly captured it with my journal!"
"He thought the fusion meant that, really misunderstood! Haha! He's also a pervert!"
.....
"He promised to build me a witch lab! I need to produce some results soon…"
After finishing the journal, Lucas Hall's murderous intent faded.
He placed the journal back as if it hadn't been touched and carefully left the room.
Seraphina wasn't injured; she only had a fever because she hadn't rested properly. She would probably recover after a day's sleep.
With several hours until nightfall, Lucas Hall began fishing again.
"Buying lighters and fire-starting tools at a high price! Also buying cold-resistant clothing!"
As usual, he sent out a message looking to purchase fire-starting tools and prepared to buy four down jackets while waiting for sellers to contact him.
Before long, he received a large number of private messages.
But just as he was about to buy the four down jackets for 105 fabric each, he received a particularly unusual private message.
"Want a fire-fur sweater? It's lighter than a down jacket and even warmer. Just pay 100 seashell coins for the craftsmanship fee!"
Name: Fire-Fur Sweater
Type: Treasure
Quality: Fine
Description: A sweater made of fire-fur, perfect for keeping warm, light, and easy to move in.
But be careful, its warmth decreases significantly after touching water. Avoid snowstorms!
Lucas Hall's eyes lit up. This was obviously better than a down jacket!
It was thin enough to wear underneath and could be layered with pirate clothes on top, so he wouldn't have to worry about snow melting and soaking the sweater.
But he'd still need to avoid freezing rain!
Lucas Hall immediately replied to the message, ready to purchase the fire-fur sweater.
"What do you mean by craftsmanship fee?"
The seller quickly replied.
"It's exactly what it sounds like!
This sweater needs to be made from a special material called fire-fur. I've run out of materials, so you'll have to provide your own.
10 units of fire-fur are enough to make one sweater, and if you want, I can also make fire-fur pants."
"The price isn't high, but where am I supposed to find fire-fur?"
Just as he was wondering, the seller sent a new message.
"I'll give you a coordinate. There's an island where a plant called fire-fur grass grows. You only need to collect ten plants, and you can make a sweater with them."
"Then why don't you go collect them yourself and sell the finished product?"
"They've all been sold out! I've only got two left, and I need to keep them as backup!
I'm not in that sea area anymore.
If you want them, you'll have to bring the materials to me and I'll make it for you. If not, that's fine too!"
Lucas Hall fell into thought.
He really wanted the fire-fur sweater.
But the fact that the seller wanted him to gather the materials seemed strange.
Perhaps sensing Lucas Hall's suspicion, the seller sent another message.
"Believe it or not!
Besides me, you're the third person who knows this coordinate.
The previous two people's transactions went smoothly, and I'm not sure how much fire-fur grass is left on the island. You'd better hurry if you want it!"
Lucas Hall didn't trust him at all, so he asked, "How much are those two sets you have?"
"Sorry, those two are not for sale, I'm keeping them for myself!"
Lucas Hall frowned, glanced at the coordinates the seller had sent, and found it wasn't too far. At full speed, it would only take two days to get there.
"That's fine, add me as a friend!" Lucas Hall suggested.
"Okay!"
[Captain of the Great Sail Ship, Henry, has requested to add you as a friend.]
Lucas Hall immediately accepted.
Ships like the XX Ship had ordinary names, but the ship owner could change them.
"Nightmare Star, is your ship special?"
"Yep!"
"Then when you get the materials, just contact me privately."
"Got it, I'm far away, it'll take me about five days, I'll contact you then!"
"Okay!"
Lucas Hall hung up the message.
He was sure that something was off with this person,
but the fire-fur sweater was the best cold-resistant item he had seen so far, and he really wanted to get it.
If he was going to get something, it better be the best!
Lucas Hall took out a crystal ball and activated the Nightmare Star's skill to observe.
[Searching… Great Sail Ship… Henry…]
Three results appeared.
Lucas Hall was stunned.
It was understandable that normal ships could have the same name,
but he didn't expect players to share the same name as well. There were three in total.
It seemed like the number of players was still quite large.
To differentiate, the three results were numbered from #1 to #3.
Lucas Hall randomly chose one, and the image appeared in the crystal ball.
It was a two-tier ship, far from the island, and didn't seem like the person he was looking for.
After looking for a while, he closed the image.
"Tomorrow, I'll check someone else!"
Lucas Hall changed the course to the island.
He planned to head that way first, since he had the sea chart, and the initiative was in his hands.
Even if there was an ambush, he could avoid it in advance.
