Chapter 161: Ship Buried in Salt
The Redemptor Armor came to the mast and tried to use broken iron (fake) to push away the salt around the mast.
After a while, the sail buried in the salt was exposed.
But it may have been buried in salt for too long.
The sail is like brittle paper, and a hole can be cut out easily.
Moreover, the paint on the surface of the mast has also peeled off, revealing the white dry and cracked wood inside.

"This mast is at least ten meters high. It is not realistic to dig it out completely." Yang Yi judged.
He controlled the armor and grabbed a handful of sea salt. It felt rough, like slightly larger grains of sand.
Therefore, the main excavation work still depends on the air flow inside the rotting whale.
Yang Yi controlled the armor and squatted down, responding to the next airflow to avoid being blown away.
About thirty seconds to one minute apart, there will be a super strong airflow blowing from the front, taking away a large amount of sea salt, and also blowing away the salt condensed on the surface.
So strictly speaking, the wind inside this rotten whale should be classified as a sandstorm, except that the sand is replaced by sea salt particles.
"One airflow will take away about 30 centimeters of salt layer. Even if the mast is 30 meters high, it only takes 100 times and the time will not exceed two hours!"
Suna observed the airflow several times and judged.
Yang Yi looked forward.
Limited by the armor's field of vision, it was difficult for him to judge what was in front of him.
The interior of the Rotten Whale is very dark, the light coming from the cave entrance is limited, and the armor's night vision ability is completely incomparable to that of three eyes.
Not to mention, the large number of active salt people will obstruct the view, and there are also sandstorms that blow from time to time.
He hesitated for a few minutes, deciding to stay here and dig out the ship before considering further exploration.
After all, the armor's range of movement is limited, and it would be very troublesome if it lost contact far away. It might be blown away and you wouldn't be able to find it back.
After making the decision, the Atonement Armor did not continue to move forward. Instead, it came to the cave wall and aimed a sword at the bright red flesh on it.
A large amount of white lotion spurted out from the wound, attracting all the salt people around and sucking them up instantly.
"The physical strength is no different from that of pork. It has no bones. The main reason is its large size and tenacious vitality." Su Na said, seeming to record the characteristics of this creature.
"This should be a super aggregate of those delicious meat pieces. Let's wait and find the core and see what the difference is..."
............
Half an hour passed.
The intensity of the airflow in the rotten whale's body further increased, and the frequency stabilized at once a minute, becoming regular.
Standing on the Nightmare Star, Suna could already observe the slowly expanding hemispherical shadow under the sea.
It expands slowly, then contracts violently, squeezing the air out of the body, taking away a large amount of sea salt from the body, and then slowly inhales new air.
Kind of like the beating of a heart.
"The rotten whale's condition is gradually improving!"
She took a photo of the sea and sent it to Yang Yi.
When the white water arrives, the Rotten Whale will probably be resurrected instantly, and the Salt Man will no longer be able to suppress it.
Inside the body of a rotting whale.
Yang Yigang broke up a salt man and poured more than 100 liters of water on it to make the salt man lose his aggressiveness.
After inhaling too much fresh water, the Salt Man will also be melted by the fresh water and will no longer be able to form a human body.
Yang Yi threw the molten salt out.
As the wind became stronger, his current position became more and more dangerous.
This is the third salt man that Yang Yi has solved.
They cannot be killed, only subdued and then thrown away.
Thanks to this, there was less than 500 liters of fresh water left in Yang Yi's ring, and it had to be used for drinking because he was also injured.
The left arm was partially dehydrated and atrophied, but it is slowly recovering after drinking enough fresh water.
Bottom of the hole.
The Redeemer Armor squatted on the ground, constantly resisting the sandstorm.
As the wind gets stronger, it becomes key to ensure that you are not blown away by the air current.
Large amounts of sea salt were blown away, revealing the salt-covered ship below.
This is actually a three-masted sailing ship, with the middle mast being the highest, so it is revealed first.
The mast is longer than expected and has been exposed for thirty meters, but there is still no feeling of touching the bottom.
Because the armor would stab the salt layer with a broken iron (fake) from time to time to test the thickness of the remaining salt layer.
Another quarter of an hour later.
The ship's deck rooms are finally revealed.
At the same time, the armor used broken iron (fake) to penetrate the salt layer downwards, and finally there was something different, as if it was a deck.
"Go and take a look in the room." Suna urged.
But even if she didn't say anything, Yang Yi was ready to go.
Ten meters forward, the Atonement Armor stood on the top of the room.
Instead of digging for salt to find the entrance to the room door, Yang Yi chose to directly cut a hole in the roof.
But a powerful blow failed to split the roof, leaving only a deep scratch on it.
It’s really surprising that the wood of this boat can still be so strong after being buried in sea salt for who knows how long.
No wonder the mast, which is dozens of meters high, has not been broken after being blown by the wind for so long.
If it wasn't a little dry and cracked, it would probably be stronger.
Finding that it was troublesome to open a hole in the roof, Yang Yi turned to looking for the door.
After another airflow cleaning, the salt layer was reduced by nearly half a meter, and the door was visible and open.
Yang Yi controlled the Atonement Armor and ran over. As expected, the room was full of salt.
So Yang Yi started to dig the sea salt inside, while being careful not to damage the things inside.
If there were any books or materials inside, they would be pulled out and blown up by the airflow, then it would be a waste of time.
Because the salt in the room would not be blown away by the wind, it could only be dug by Yang Yi, just like an archaeologist digging the soil, but not so careful and meticulous, after all...Armor was digging salt with a giant sword.
Soon, the giant sword touched a hard object.
After cleaning out the surrounding salt, a table was exposed.
This is a piece of furniture fixed in the room, and it is made of the same material as the hull, very strong.
There was nothing on the table, and I don’t know if it was dug out when digging salt just now.
Yang Yi checked and found a collapsed bookshelf, as well as several books and letters in the salt pile under the table. Although the cover was faded and the font ink was scattered, it was still barely recognizable.
"The Log of the Thirteenth Whaling Fleet", "World Sea Chart", "Appointment Document for Hunting Small Corrupted Whales Nicknamed "Jellyfish", "Liko's Letter", "The Harm of Corrupted Whales".
Yang Yi controlled the armor to shake the sea salt on these books and tried to flip through the world sea chart that he was most interested in.
But he encountered difficulties when opening it because the book was closed too tightly.
After increasing the force, the whole book was torn open by Yang Yi directly. The paper inside seemed to be stuck together and was very brittle. It was broken into pieces by this.
"This book seems to have been soaked in water." Su Na said distressedly.
Yang Yi checked several other books or letters, and they were all like this, completely unreadable.
After the ship was flooded, the book was not properly handled, and the water inside did not dry for a long time, making it almost unreadable.
Yang Yi did not continue to open the next book, but put it aside to see if he could decipher it when he took it back to the Nightmare Star.
Then he looked at the cabinet on the table, which was hung with an exquisite metal lock, and it was not rusty.
