Chapter 227 The Effect of the Execution Rack

"Just need crystal diamonds?"

Yang Yi said in disbelief.

The upgrade of the Nightmare Star has always been based on the Nightmare Star, and the key materials for upgrading are the organs or corpses of strange demons.

From level two to level three, and from level three to level four, the Nightmare's skills have been greatly strengthened, but the Astrology's skills have not changed much.

But this time is different. Unusually, upgrading requires a lot of crystal diamonds.

"Does this mean that the next time you upgrade, Astrology's skills will be greatly enhanced...or that new skills will appear?"

Yang Yi speculated.

The Astrology Number is different from the Nightmare Number. Their skills are very similar to plug-ins, such as opening pictures, peeking at the screen, etc.

Although it will not directly enhance the combat effectiveness, the functionality is full.

So if there are new skills in this upgrade, it will probably be a failure...

Yang Yi was somewhat looking forward to the Level 5 Nightmare Star.

It's just that crystal diamonds are not easy to come by.

So far, he has only caught it once while fishing and used it.

If you want to collect 30,000 crystal diamonds, I'm afraid it's not something you can do with money. There's a long way to go!

Yang Yi walked on the deck, looking up from time to time to check the new execution rack on the top of the mast, thinking about what to hang.

The stronger the thing, the better the effect must be, but Yang Yi didn't have a suitable corpse to hang on right now, so he used all the gashapons.

"Perhaps we can take out the specimens from Su Na's laboratory and hang them up..."

Yang Yi muttered to himself and unknowingly arrived at the bow of the ship.

At this moment, the old captain had been fishing for almost two hours.

He glanced at the barrel and almost laughed.

There was only one small, poor long-legged sardine in it, and nothing else.

Around the barrel, there are several small pieces of dried meat that have been sucked dry by vines, leaving almost only a layer of skin.

Yang Yi fished out the long-legged sardine, picked up some dried meat pieces, and walked towards the mast in the atrium.

He wanted to try it to see if these things could be hung.

After all, it is about hunting, which has a similar meaning to prey. Not only the corpses of strange monsters, but also the corpses of ordinary animals and plants, and even living creatures can be hung up.

And the hanging things can be changed at any time, so you don't have to worry about hanging them up but not taking them out.

Yang Yi also pulled a few weeds, a section of an ancient skeleton's arm and a small section of vines on the deck, preparing to hang them together to see the effect.

He came to the atrium and climbed up from the mast at the back.

This mast is taller than the previous one and is topped by an inverted cross.

Yang Yi grabbed the vine handrail on the mast and climbed up, quickly reaching the top.

At this time, the long-legged sardine was almost dead and could not survive out of the water for a long time.

Yang Yi seized the opportunity and took the lead in hanging up the long-legged sardines.

It worked.

The wire wrapped around the cross seemed to be a living thing, entangled in the long-legged sardine. The spikes on the surface pierced it hard and hung it in the center of the cross.

[Execution rack activated]

A reminder popped up on Yang Yi's log, indicating that hanging long-legged sardines was also effective.

He opened the ship interface to check and found that the system had commented on the hunt and showed the effect.

[Evaluation: The dying long-legged sardine, hanging on for its last breath, was hung up for display by some idiot.

Almost no one would notice that there is a fish here.

Effect: The ship's durability is increased by 1, and the probability of being attacked by long-legged sardines increases by 1000%. 】

----------

"Being attacked by long-legged sardines?" A strange look flashed across Yang Yi's face.

It was hard for him to imagine being besieged by long-legged sardines.

That's just...no different than the food delivered to your door!

Yang Yi took off the long-legged sardine and found that the fish was dead.

Then he hung the fish up again and checked the effect again.

There is no difference.

It seems that the effect of hanging dead and living things may be the same, at least for this fish.

Yang Yi then tried other items.

The execution rack accepts all comers, including weeds, vines, bones, and pieces of meat with only a layer of skin remaining.

[Evaluation: An ordinary weed. I don’t understand why some people regard it as a trophy. Is it because it grows on bones?

Effect: None]

----------

[Evaluation: A small section of bloodthirsty vines, no different in appearance from ordinary vines.

Effect: Ship durability +5]

----------

[Evaluation: The pieces of meat have been sucked dry, leaving only a layer of skin. They taste very good and may have been picked up by passing seabirds.

Effect: Ship durability +3]

----------

[Evaluation: A skeletal arm is hardly scary.

Effect: Ship durability +2]

----------

"Basically useless..."

Yang Yi took down all the hanging things.

In terms of effectiveness, long-legged sardines may be the most effective among these hunts, and may increase food acquisition.

He climbed down from the mast and went to the witch's laboratory again, borrowing several specimens and the tentacles of pale worms to test the effectiveness of the execution rack.

It's better than before, basically it can increase the durability by dozens or even hundreds.

The most effective one is the spider queen's insect head, with a human body attached to the top of the head.

Although there are many stitching marks and the interior has been hollowed out, the visual impact of hanging on it is still very shocking.

It can increase the hull durability by 1000 points, the maximum speed is 5, and the hatred of spider monsters increases by 100%.

The second is the stomach of the glutton, which can not only increase the durability by 300, but also have the effect of driving away delicious meat.

If the living pale worm is hung on it, it is estimated that it can also add hundreds or even thousands of durability.

Yang Yi tested it repeatedly many times and roughly figured out the characteristics of the execution rack.

The stronger and more dangerous the creature, the higher its evaluation and the better the effect.

But the specific evaluation is also related to the state of the hunt.

A complete corpse is better than scattered organs.

Important organ parts (such as the head, the stomach of the glutton) are better than insignificant organ parts.

Yang Yi finally chose the head of the velvet spider queen and sent a private message to Suna, preparing to borrow it for a while.

"Okay!"

Suna's reply was simple, agreeing.

She has studied the body of the spider queen several times, and there is no problem taking it out and hanging it on the mast.

There are better options later, so you can take it down and replace it with something else.

Just as Yang Yi was about to climb down, an absurd idea suddenly crossed his mind.

If he hangs himself on this rack, what kind of evaluation and effect will it produce?

He looked at the upside-down cross, which was just the right size to hang his werewolf self...

But this idea was just an idea after all, and Yang Yi was not stupid enough to hang himself up.

He climbed down quickly and sent the borrowed sample back to the witch laboratory.

"It seems that in the future, when I kill the alien demon, I have to try its hunting effect before I turn it into a capsule..."

Yang Yi nodded, quite satisfied with the rack.

This special building is simple and practical, and there is almost no upper limit.

If the forest fairy is hung on it, it may bring a very strong effect.

If a great being is hung on it, it is simply unthinkable!
